Quite a number of citizens .Were pres ent to listen to the speaking. It seemed to one onlooker, that by unanimous consent the candi dates took special delight in showing every courtesy to com petitors, while the throng of peo ple stands out, second to none for good order, etc. Among the many who spoke was Mr. Toole, of Aiken, Candidate for Con gress. He made a short but strong speech, setting forth his convictions in no uncertain tones, the substance of which shall endeavor to give: •‘I come before you seeking your support for a position of service, of trust, and of honor. The place for which I ask is made vacant ev ery two years by the enactment of law, and belongs to no incumb ent nor office seeker, but to the people. My motto has and shall oe, ‘Public office for public ser vice, and not for private advan tage ; public office for public benefit, and not for private hon ors’—this, it seems to me, is the principle which should govern the people when electing the ; r 1 servants, and govern those Ser- i .-ants when elected. f would be matter **f in Saluda, have om MCWVoaa cm. 4: We might, as-: pleased to discuss tie a Fish Hatchery hei > (a local matter,) but t. the time to say it would be de sirable, and I shall b f| elected, to use my t ->t endeav ors to bring such a ti ing to you: ; \- door. 5.

Richard C. Rogers. Rural Free Delivery Routes. The monthly report of the superin tendent of rural free delivery of the postoffice department shows that dur ing the month of June 133 new^ F. D. routes w-ere put in operation in South Carolina, distributed among the various congressional districts as follows :First district,?; Second district, 5; Third district 13; Fourth district, 11; Fifth district, 34 ; Sixth district, 3; Seventh district, 20. There were in all during this month 1,211 petitions filed for routes in South Carolina ; 549 of these were acted on adversely, and 93 are still pending. There were no routes discontinued in the Slat". Concerning the discontinuance of rural free delivery routes much has been said and w-ritten during the past session, but the report for June at least shows that the ajinnuntuad d*♦*—*-"»»»*••- lion or disposition to discontinue routes especially in the Southern States is not materializing. Very few routes were discontinued at all during June in any of the States, but the Southern States, have not fared worse than any others. In fact the largest number of routes discontinued in any one State was in the State of Kansas, in which 12 routes were discontinued. In Virginia five were discontinued, in North Carolina 2, in Georgia 3, in Tennessee 6, in Florida none, in North Dakota 9. The district having the largest num ber of rural routes is the Tenth Iowa, which has now in operation 280. The next largest number is the First Ten- jnessee, Mr. Brownlow’s district—Mr. Brownlow is a Republican. In this district there are 277. The Third dis trict is the seventh Kansas with 272, but 10 of the 12 discontinuances are in this district. The Kansans have been trying to overdo the thing. There are in operation in South Caro lina. in all districts, now 369 rural free delivery routes, with a daily delivery. By districts they are as follows: Fifth (Rep. Finley ) 137 ; Third (Rep. Aiken) 132; Fourth (Rep. Johnson) 109; Sev enth (Rep. Lever) 83; Sixth (Rep. El- erbe) 52 Second (Rep. Patterson) 36; First (Rep. Legare) 21.

Aiken Kelly Restored Is NssHh. Rev. Win Aiken Kelly has been dis charged from the Roper Hospital and Is now at home in Charleston recup (rating from the effects of the opera tion upon his brain, removing a clot of *»lood, which it is thought, will result in his complete restoration to health end enable him to resume his minis* -oriel duties Mr. Kelly was relieved of his cre- lentials at the meeting of the Metho- lifet conference last December, but in view of the very satisfactory perform- " “"s mi-iistnrmt'duties previous etion which caused him to desert his pastoral charge and State, it is probable that with ete recovery he will be re standing in the church, r. Kelly spent some time in Vir- ia and was for a long time at Char lotte before going to Charleston. His whereabouts were established shortly after he deserted his pastoral charge, but in view of his affliction, his family ia4 elose personal friends kept the matter quiet and it was not until his going o Charleston recently for the operation upon his brain that hie move ments became publicly known. His trouble was diagnosed by a Charleston surgeon to he blood pressure upon the brain, and upon the opening of the h*ad the condition was found to exist, as slated, and the operation was suc cessfully performed. The surgeon is said to have given it as his opinion that there will be no re turn of Mr Kelly’s former brain trouble, and his numerous friem a through tie State share in the hope that his condition will continue to im prove, and that he will soon be able to resume his ministerial functions in the church which he served so well. Kim thought gtxvl forToy pt'- jite and i against any 1 considered unfav • orable to their interests. Just i that much I have vd i my iut> to do, and deserve no si ocia] commendation. I shall be pleas ed to have my record ( wt mined and compared with of iny other representative in the State. 10.

I would not allow my people to be insulted in any such way and not resent the insult, if I had to suffer for it. But 1 believe the true rep resentatives in Congress would uphold any man’s hands for re senting an insult to him and his people. Why it has not been so long since our fearless and honored representative, Con gressman Preston Brooks, of the grand old County of Edge- field, caned Charles Sumner in the Hall of Congress for an insult to the peo ple of South Carolina. And if I mistake not, the people of this district want a representa tive who will stand work and even fight for their cause and good name. I now invite your attention to a few issues. A representative, or one who seeks to be your rep resentative, should stand for some vital, fixed principles of governmental policy. I ask that you expect and should demand this of all candidates coming be fore you, apply the “yard stick 1 ’ accordingly. There are some issues that de serve more than passing men tion, but for the present we must be content with the mere mention of the issues that so vitally affect us. 1. The Immigration Laws are not what they should be. The gap is too broad ; the criminal class from Europe is poured upon us every year, and we can’t help ourselves.
