THE AIKEN RECORDER. Published Every Tuesday AIKEN, S. C.. NOV. 13. 1888. The Situation. drawback to expositions. Among so many beautiful displays it is difficult to select some for special mention without being charged with being invidious. But we will call attention to a few as most especially attractive. The display made by Richmond County i« exceedingly handsome, j and arranged with much taste so as i to be one of the most striking and at In Kelercucc to lioiil Sackville. The Republican party was victori- tractive in the building, ous at the polls on last Tuesday, and . R is a strange fact, but it is unques- has carried its candidates for Presi- tionuble here as it was in New Or* dent and Vice-President through by leans, and with the one exception of by a good majority. It was a close. North Carolina in Atlanta, that the contest, but the result was a heavy i exhibit of South Carolina is the most and unquestionable defeat for the Democrats. The cause of this defeat we believe to have been the violent agitation of the tariff question. The canyass was made on this question, and while the course of President Cleveland and the Democratic lead ers was undoubtedly right in itself, yet it had the effect of alienating enough votes from our party to cause its defeat. It must never be over looked that the question of protection is not necessarily separated from Democracy. There are many thous ands of staunch Democrats at the North, ami in the fjouth also, who think a protective tariff right. In the South, all Democrats how ever they may differ on the tariff' question, are bound together by the common danger of negro supremacy, hut at the North where no such bind ing influence exists, we are satisfied that a large number of Democrats voted the Republican ticket, as they believed in defence of the protective system. Whatever may have been the cause of our defeat the fact stands, and it behooves us now to make the best of it. The effect on the South need not he disastrous. We got along fairly well under President Arthur, and doubt less will under President Harrison. The result of the Presidential election is shown it) the following table where the electoral votes are compared with those of 1881. STATES. co ’j ~ (Cleveland *4.

The great pyramid of phosphate rocks, the grain fish, minerals, woods and vegetables, show a variety of resources that must arrest earnest attention, and the skill and taste with which the exiiibit is arranged reflect great credit upon those in charge. The Georgia Chem ical Works have a most attractive and interesting exhibit ot phosphates and guano of various kinds, and in various stages, all worthy of most careful examination. But after all it is South Carolina’s phosphate rock which forms the basis of the hand some exhibit. Messrs. John Dwight&Co., of New York, make very attractive display of their soda. “The Cow Brand” ar rests the attention of every visitor, and is really one of the handsomest displays in the building. Another exhibit that is well worthy of careful examination is that of fur niture displayed by Messrs. Freeman and G'llits, of New York. They have large space, occupied by beautiful furniture, arranged with great taste. Pyles’ Pearline is such a common article of household use, that one would scarcely expect to see it util ized as one of the handsomest pyra mids and most attractive exhibits; yet there it is, package upon package, arrayed in the most attractive man ner. The National exhibit from Wash ington promises to be most elaborate and instructive, but it is not yet com plete. In addition to these there are many other handsome displays too numer ous to mention. Among them may he noticed an exhibit/)! small baskets and other articles ingeniously made of pine straw by a young lady of Aiken. A good restaurant is attached to the Exposition, where a comfortable lunch or dinner may be had at reason able rates. Day hi’ day for a week or so yet the Exposition will become more and more attractive, as the rest of the ex- hiTuts are put into order, and visitors will find themselves amply repaid in pleasure and instruction by repeated visits. The Savannah River Association. We have already given an account of the action of Lord Sackville in re gard to the Murchison decoy letter, and the unfortunate diplomatic results therefrom. Now we see that a num ber of the newspapers of the country have been printing articles reflecting _ j upon his personal character, particu- larly in regard to his family relations. ! It is a matter of great regret that so ; many newspapers, in Europe as well as America admit eagerly into their columns anything of a sensational nature, without caring whether it is proper to read, or whether it will do good or harm. Now the facts about Lord Sackville’s marriage as these: Early in life he married, according to Spanish law, but irregularly according to our ideas, the Lady Elizabeth, daughter of the Duke of Dorset, of a family en nobled by William the Conqueror, and as the ladies of both families have long been noted for their beauty, it is not a matter of surprise that the three daughters of Minister West are among the noted beauties of the age. Lady Elizabeth Sackville West was quite noted in her time, both for beau- 13’ and social grace. As she died be fore he came to America, his oldest daughter, Victoria, has alwa3’s been the presiding lady of the legation. Tiie British nobility is so connected by marriage that it is no surprise to learn that Minister West’s sister was second wife of the late Marquis of Salisburj’, and therefore stepmother to the present Lord Salisbtir3’, prem ier of England, and ex-officio chief of the department of foreign affairs. Since the death of the marquis she has married the Earle of Derby. Hon. G. Edwards Lester, Late U. S. Consul to li author of “The Glory land Shame of England,” “America's Advancement,” etc. writes as follows: )tc., etc., 4tc., r The Yellow Fever. The second convention of this asso ciation will be held in Augusta on the Mtii and loth inst. In addition to the members of the association, it is hoped that delegates from other coun ties outside of the Valley proper, feel ing an interest in the movement, will be present. The subiect of the river, in all its maiuv phases, will be dis- -ftsryced.irtKl steps taken again to ^rjag The rosult of the elections for Con gressmen is reall3’ of greater impor tance than that for President, and from the returns that have thus far come to hand we fear the Democratic majority in the House of Represen tatives is dangerousl3’ small. The Re publicans have gained a number of members in districts that had sent Democratic members hitherto. A Congress controlled b3’ the Republi- caus can be of more harm to the South than onlv’ a Republican President. But even if Congress is Republican, with a Republican President, we do not believe that an3’ great interfer ence will be made with the domestic concerns of the Southern Slates. The time has passed for the “bloody shirt” cr3’, as well as for negro rule. During the past ten 3’ears vast sums of North ern 11101103’ have been invested in the South, and this faet, if nothing else, will have an important effect in ma king the Northern members of Con gress conservative in dealing witli the Southern States. As long as we retain control of our State, County, and municipal govern ments, we see no reason for despon dency. Disappointed we undoubted ly are; but now the best to do is to accept the inevitable facts, make the best we can of them, and prepare our selves to make a harder and more successful fight next time. The State Election. The election in this State resulted In an overwhelming victorj’ for the Democrats. The entire ticket for State officers was re-elected, and also all the Democratic candidates for County officers, except in one or two counties on the coast, where the negro majority is so great that no contests for the Count3’ offices were made 1.3- the Democrats. All of the candidates for Congress have been re-oiected b3’ beav3’ majorities, including even Col. "Will. Elliott in the black district. G. D. Tillman defeated S. E. Smith (colored) b3’ about ten to one. The votes will be counted officialI\* to-day by the commissioners of election, and the exact results declared. prominentl3’ before Congress the mat ter of an appropriation. A committee appointed by the As sociation memorialized Congress last February to make a fair appropriation for the river, but the matter was con sidered by Congress at a time when u double appropriation bill for rivers and harbors was pending, and the petition failed to have the desired ef fect. In the memorial it was shown that, according to the census reports of 1880, the thirty-seven counties in Georgia and the twelve in South Car olina directly interested in the im provement of the Savannah river rep resented in farm products, farm val ues, (including houses’, farm imple ments and live stock about $150,000,- 000, and that they had a population af about 1,000,000. These facts ought to insure the careful attention of Con gress to the object of the Association. The Association proposes to hold together, and by persistent and well directed efforts will do much for the interests of the ricer section. The fever stil continues in Florida, and there are from 20 to 30 new cases daily in Jacksonville alone. The government medical bureau has been disbanded, only Dr. Porter and a few nurses rum a in lug. Dr. Sbeftnll, of the Savannah vol unteer yellow fever phi’Gicians, has just returned home to that cit3’. In an interview In the Morning News, he says yellow fever will probably continue in Florida all the winter. There lias not been any indication of even white frost yet south of Sav annah. Columbia, Nov. 10 —As announ ced some time ago, Miss Issabelle Lee, of New York city, has put in a claim for Fort Hill, the place and other property left by the late Thos. G. Clemson to the state for the pur pose of an agricultural college. The proceedings will he In the form of an action to set aside so mucli of the will of Mr. Clemson as devises the Fort Hill place to the state. Miss Lee has engaged the Hon. Leroy F. Youmans, of this cit3*, to contest the will. The papers will be filed and served in Pickens within the next week. New York, August 1, If B6.1 122 E. 27th si, j 3 >k. J. C.

The license cases in Charleston ap proach a settlement. There were 47 in all, of these twenty parties were lodged in jail, twenty-four paid up their fines and costs, and took out their licences, and three were return ed’by the city Sheriff ‘nulla bona.’ The 20 tradesmen who refused to pay their licenses have been in construct ive jail for about two weeks, but sinae the Supreme Court has decided that the License Tax is legal, it was man ifest folly for them to resist any long er. At a meeting of the city council on Wednesdays last, the matter was thoroughly discussed, and as it was understood that the prisoners had ex pressed a willingness to comply with the law, and take out their licenses, while they refused to pa3’ a»3’ fines or costs, the matter was referred to the Mayor, and Ways and Means Com mittee, with power To act.

We have tried ail the commission houses who have agencies in every town in the county’. They all did tiie best the.v could, but were not up to our standard; we wanted the best merchant tailor in America, and we found our man in “Arnheim the Tailor,” corner of Broad and Spring St., New York City.
