direction of Aiken to a point near
Kaimia where all trace of him was

spoke bitterly of the policy ol keeping
u n- jjr,' ole ' ~8 }: as maJl agents on the
various railroads when plenty of
white men wanted the positions. The
speech was not well received but as
an act of courtesy was accorded faint
applause when he resumed his seat.
The following preamble and resolu
tions were then offered by M**. F. M.
Mixon, of Aiken, and adopted after
some debate:
Whereas, the State Democ , 'alic
Convention submitted to the people
of each Congressional District the
question whether Congressmen should
be nominated by the primary eleciion
or Convention, said question to be
settled by a Convention to bq called
for the pui pose, therefore be it
Jtcao’vrd by this Conven io.i, That
the executive committee of tu-s Con
gressional district is hereby request
ed to call a Convention early in the
campaign of 1888 to settle the said
question and provide rules for the pri
mary, if that plan be adopted.
The following resolution was tnen
introduced bySfr. W. It. Kolly, and
was seconded by Mr. Mike Brown, of
Barnwell:
Resolved, That the civil service as
applied by President Cleveland meets
the views of the Democrats of the Sec
ond South Carolina Congressional dis
trict.
Mr. Kelly supported his resolution
by a speech in which he stated that
he widely differed with Mr. Tillman
inMs opinions concerning Mr Cleve
land’s Administration. Considerable
dscussion then ensued of a somewhat
desultory character, during Which Mr.
M. B. Woodward, of Aiken, Introduc
ed ike following as a eubsikub fur Mr.
Kelly’s ’•esclutionu
Resolved, That we the Triple of the
Second Congressional District, eu.-
dorse the Admir-ipir^Kon of President
Grover Cleveland, as Wise, Judicious
and patriotic. < i
Mr. Woodward then made An elo-
uueni and forcible speech, eulogiz
ing the Ad mi n is tra .ion of Mr. Cleve-
laud,and alluding with ielling effect to
themxnnor iu which he had elood by
his persona! pledges as well as the
pla-tforn; of the National Democravlc
par,y. Mr. Woodward w*s highly
partisan purposes of mere party mia-
isterial officers in the departments at
Washington, and in such custom
houses or post offices as have fifty or
more employees, which classes do not
include moro th in one-fi.th of the Fed
end appointments, yet we are unai
terably opposed to “civil service
policy by analogy,” wnlch studious _
keeps Republicans iu and Democrats
out of most of the other five-sixths of
the Federal positions, including many
thousand fat staff appointments that
ought to be filled by none but the par
tisan friends of the Administration
who put it into power.
When Mr. Talbert first rose there
was much confusion and a motion
for adjournment was made before he
could read his olatform. Upon see
ing this Mr. Tillman rose and begged
that the motion to adjourn bo w
drawn U> allaii Mr. Talbert to read
his platform cts it wl$ oi**. tehich he
endorsed. The motion to adjourn was
then withdrawn and Mr. Talbert read
the above platforn. As soon as he
finished, the motion to adjourn wag
renewed and carried. Thus was Mr.
Tillman the nominee of the Second
Congressional District left iu the
larch, without a platform to stand on
and at variance with the Convention
that had juat gi /en hi in a unanimous
nomination. Certainly a most uni
que and remarkable position for a rep
resentative to occupy iu reference to
his constituency. The geutleaunn who
furnished us the facta contained in this
report, were delegates to the conven
tion, and they expressed the opinion
that Cleveland’s Civil Service I’oiicy
would have been endorsed by two to
one if a vote had b«cn forced. The
reason wdiy tho vote was not
forced was simply out of sym
pathy for the awkward position iu
which Mr. Tillman had unnecessarily
placed himself.
The Aiken delegatee all speak in
terms of the highest commendation of
the hearty ’ ospitHity shown by the
'ood citizens of Johnston. The dele
gates were all assigned to pleasant
quarters free of expense and were
elegantly entertained.

Convention should presume to iliff. v
with tiie Hon. George, of Edgefield.
He said in substance that if tiie Con
vention propot l to endorse the Ad
min'it ml ion of Grover Cleveland that
he would res'gn the nomination, if
tie people would give him a primary
©iection. He said he was ready to
take the stump and discuss ihe ques
tion with anybody, and that he would
show to that convention whether
the people of ihe Second Con
gressional District would endorse
what he had said in regard to ihe
Cleveland Amniuhlrutiou.
This unseemly demonstration flded
ihe majorh v of Ihe members witu
surprise and d sgusi and it is thought
that if the no mi na ion had been
deferred uutill a 1 ter the speech some
one else would have ep-esented the
Second Coogtesshmal District in the
next Congress.
Mr. J. P. Be.an, of Edgefield, then
arose and w.th the benevolent iaicn-
