THE ANDERSON DEMOCRACY.
An Appeal to tho Voters of thin County
Th? Supremo Importance of the Hour
Kct Forth.
To thc Voten of Anderson Cuunty:
During tho past four years tho Demo
cratic party lias controlled tho govern
ment of South Carolina, mid is now ask
ing of thc votors of this Stolotiiat it shall
bo continued In authority hero for nu
othcr two ycar.s and also that ll shall be
given tho administration of thc National
Government for tho coming four years.
On noxt Tuesday theso propositions ure
to bo passed upon by tho votera of tho
United States, of which you will form a
portion of tho aggregate, and will assisi
In determining tho decision to he reached
In roforenco both to rJlato and National
issues. Tho reasons why tho Democratic
party should bo continued in chargo of
tho State of South Carolina aro obvious
to nil truo and Intellifont cltizons. It has
given us apuro, abloand dignified judi
ciary, whore Republicanism gavo UH a
corrupt, venal and shameful ono, from
tho Supremo Bench to tho Court of Trial
Justice. Tho last oloctlon of Judges by
tho Republicans elected MOHOS nnd Whip
per, whllo tho last oleetion undor Ibo
Democrats elevated McGowan and Simp
son. Tho character of theso mon fuily
contrasts tho two partios. Tho Demo
cratic party has given prosperity to tho
State, and every whoro wo find both labor
and capital harmoniously employed mid
contontod, whilo undor tho best days of
Republicanism thoro woro Humorous and
serious strikes and contentions, unset
tling tho labor of tho country nnd endan
gering its property and tho li vc ? of its
inhabitants. Tho legislative, oxocutlvo,
judicial, penal and oharltablo and publie
printing dcparlmonts of tho government
aro uow run on n tax of throo-quartorsof
ono mill by Ibo Doraooratlo party, whllo
tho saino things cost threo and ono-half
milis undor tho lowest tux Iovy over
mado by tho Republicans. Tho Demo
cratic party hai c.-tended tho provisions
of tho Constitution relative to tho homo
stead, so as to glvo to all heads of fnmi
llcs $500 worth of personal proporty, and
allow it to bo claimed on crops by ten
ants who own no lands, whllo tho pro
visions of tho Constitution framed by tho
P.opubllcans did not authorize any but
landowners to claim tho homestead ex
emption lu crops. Our public schools
have boon improved, and tho wholo of
our public institutions havo been bettor
and moro economically conducted.
With theso facts, which cannot bo dis
puted, wo feel that it ia not asking too
much when wo call upon every truo tnan
In Anderson County to go out on noxt
Tuesday nnd both voto and work for tho
olo.Hinn of ibo entire State ticket nomi
nntcd by tho Dcmocratlo pnrty. This,
however, is not our whole, and porhaps
not our highest duty. Tho Presidential
election now ponding is of supremo im
portance to tho welfare of our people and
to tho perpetuity of tho froe institutions
of Amerlen. Tho Republican party ls a
sectional enemy of tho South, and to
gratify its vindictive hate has repeatedly
dono violence to tho Constitution .of our
forefuthovH and sotntdoflancoovory prin
clplo of human liberty. It has turned
looso, without a trial, revenue ollicors In
tho bando of Ststo Courts dunged with
murder, as In tho oaso of Alexander Mat
tison, who Irl'led Davis, in this Couuty
Ho was actually taken from our Courts
mid, ns If to reward his murdorous dcod,
was given position by tho Republican
patty In the United States PostOfllcoDo
part ment. The wholo purpose and ton
doney of Republican Ism has been to sub
vert tho Republic and establish nn Em
piro, and Ibo shout which wont up from
a portion of tho Republican procession
. In New York about ton days ago truly
voiced th" soutimonl of the party in say
ing, ?'Hur*.ih for Gon. Grant, tho first
Kim; of Amorlca.*' Monarchy Is tho
purpose of tho parly In power, and, if lt
is successful, wo may look forronowed In
suits and oppressions towards tho South
to ?iurjiUariSO the Amorlcan peoplo with
usurpation and preparo thc way for tho
inauguration of a King. Gen, (h vfield,
tho Republican candidato for Prcsldont,
is sn ardent Southern bater, mid his pub
lic speeches aro wreaking with bitter and
vilo tdundora and vituperations r>f our
people. It Is a muttor of tho last conse
qu nco to us that ho should be defeated,
and therefore wo urgo our peoplo to de
voto enough timo and work to tho cam
paign to secure the largest possiblo ma
jority in Andorson County. This has
been tho banner County ?rf tho Stato in
politics. To i'ctain our proud positkm
wo must hold up our vote and koop down
tho Republican vote. This can only bo
uuii?\>y jjouii, winiwnL min patriotic work.
Of courso, wo oxpeot ovory Democrat to
go to .tho polls nnd voto tho wholo ticket,
bnt wo especially urge that thoy will put
themselves lo tho trouble of working
with their tenants and acquaintances who
havo not been acting with tho Democratic
party. Wo urgo that Ibero shnll bo no
swapping off of tho. Electoral tlekct on
any account, and that tho wholo aim and
oifort nhall bo to oscuro at least four
thousand majority for the Dome-viatic
party In Anderson County on noxt'Tues

COI.UMUIA, October 23.
Tho following address was issued to-day
from tho headquarters of tho State Demo
cratic Exoeutlvo Committee :
Tn thr Democratic V<,trrt of tlic State :
Tho few ?lays which intervene botweon
this mid tho'2d ol'November niuy bo deci
sivo of tho election, National, State, anil
local ; and in view of tho importance of
tho Issues involved lind tho absoluto noed
of KUCCCSH, tho State Kxccutlvo Commit
tee appeals to the Democratic Clubs ami
votera throughout tin;State for united and
vigorous action.
Tho hi lu re of tho Republican party to
openly nominate a state ticket hus lulled
our peoplo into a sensu of security, and
bas inspired tho belief that there ls no
real contest, no need of work, mid that
success will como as it carno In 1873.
Nothing could he more delusivo or de
structive. Apathy now is fatal, and su
pineness will only pave tho way to de
feat.
Th oro isa contest huton; us not only for
thu Klcctoralj but for tho State ticket.
Wo feel authorized, from the Information
WO havo, to *ay to you that tho Republi
can party will prosonl an unbroken front
on olcctlon day In support of tho Green
back ticket, ami coalescing with that
small faction of tho peoplo, will strive
undor tholr banners to win n Republican
victory. Tho instructions havo boen al
ready given, tho orden issued, tho combi
nation of forces arranged, and tho bargain
struck, which unites the Greenback party
with tho Republican for tho defoat through
out tho State of tho Democratic Electoral,
Stato and local ticket.
Tho remembrance of that dark period
from 1808 to 1870 is too vivid for you to
tolorato tho thought of again passing
under Hopubllcan rulo. Wo havo
realized tho blessings of D?mocratie
Government. Tho reforms willoh havo
como uro not imaginary, nor a: o they
mero party cries for political offset. They
ure renl and substantial, vislblo to tho
wholo world, felt and recognized in bust
ness circles ovorywhorc, anil admitted by
even tho moat bitter and hostile of Re
publican journals, l'eaco throughout
tho Stato ; tim absenco ol' all race collis
ions ; tho equal and just administration
of tho laws ; security to life and property ;
tho reduction of taxation and expenses,
nnd a marked and general lncreaso in
material prosporily, aro tho fruits of
Democratic rule, end the results of tho
overthrow of Republican domination.
To us the success of tho Republican and
thc overthrow of tho Democratic govom
mont moans far moro than an ordinary
chango of political rulers. It means thc
destruction of ovory ^atorinl Interest, tho
paralysis of all industries. It means the
roturn to power of ignorance, and corrup
tion, a now era of extravagance and
wasteful and Bhamoless expenditure, nn
Increase of State debt and taxation. It
means a venal Legislature, a corrupt
Judiciary and nu Executive powerless to
enforce tho laws. It means a daily recur- |
ring strife ol' races and u constant set.se of
insecurity nnd danger. Undor that yoko I
we cannot mid will not again pass. J
Tho bitter lessons of the past will bo lost
unless they teach us that lt is only in
tho unity and energy cf thc Democratic
party that tho hopo of safety Iles. Hy
ilicso moans wo won in tho groat strugglo
ofl87(I. Hy theso, and tbeso alone, can
wo win now. Tho Intonso enthusiasm of
that campaign called out every voter.
The full strength of tho Democratic party
ls needed now. On that, and that alono,
can wo rely. No porty machinery nor
political management, no secret comis?is
nor Hubtlo contrivances, can avail. To
roly on theso ls to trust to a brokon reed.
Tho roco ls to tho s~. lft and tho battlo to
tho strong; and victory on tho 2d No
vcmbor will rungo Itself on tho eldo of tho
heaviest battalions. It la for you and us
to soo to lt that tho heaviest battalions
march under the Democratic Hag.
Tho ono paramount duty of thoso who
hopo to preservo tho civilization thoy
havo inherited, and tho prosperity thoy
oujoy, ls to be activo and earnest; for
ovory man to work as if auccoss or defeat
restod on lila individual effort, and not
to rest from his labors until 'in lost man
has been brought out and t i_ ballot
pollod.
Upoil thoso who havo loon clothed
with power as oxecutlvo ofneors in tho \
counties, or choson by tho people as their
Htandard bearers lu tho contest, will rest j
a heavy responsibility. To thom tholr !
fellow-eltIZO.IH look for guidance and ex
amples With thoi . ?J tho real and activo
management ol'tho campaign. Tho Stato
committee, can only exorcise a general
supervision and direction. Thu struggle
in each county must bo undor tho loador
tdilp of tho local Exccutlvo Coininltteo,
and success In tho cou ut los means victory
in tho Stato.
Tho linos aro drawn and tho Issua
joined. Those who aro not- with in? ?re
against us. There is now licit hm- room
nor place for Independents or third par
ties of any kind. No mattor undor what
flag thoy sorvo or what battlo-cry thoy
uttor, their vote is against us if lt is not
with us. Consciously or unconsciously,
they aro working for our defeat.
There may bo among good mon candi
dates and tho friends ol candidates, a kcou
senso of personal wrong and political In
justice. Just claims may havo been ig
nored, and faithful sorvlcos forgotten.
Theso nro incidents insopurnblo from po
litical lifo and eontos'.s; out tho remody
is not in lukewarmness ; not in reals
taned to tho popular will ; not,
above all. lu alliance with enemies to
dofo.it friends. Tho Stato may bo safely
ti usted soonor or lator to do Justlco to au
ber sons, but it Is equally suro and cor
taln that tho just and weighty judgment
of tim Stato will fall upon thone vlio In tho
hour of perl!, forgetting their duty, ro
inembor only their pomonal wrongs, or
prefer their personal ambition to tho
public good, if there bo any such, wo
appeal to them in tho most earnest mid
friendly spirit, aa thoy voltio tholr own
name, their hopes of usefulness in tho
futuro, tho respect of their follow-cltlzons.
