Elliott, of Beaufort, are spoken of as Democratic candidates for the nomination for Congress from the Black District, It is not fair for candidate or news paper to pitch into a candidate just be fore the election when the person at tacked has no chance to reply, lle ware of insinuations and charges made in such a way. The South Carolina Republicans are playing possum. They think by ab staining altogether from politics for a few years that the Democrats will be come divided, and then they will walk in and take charge of matters. This is a pretty good scheme, but it won't work. A Rattling canvass is expected in Tennessee where the Democrats have nominoted for governor Dob Taylor, ;t liddling, fun-loving man of the people, and the Republicans have nominated for the same office Alfred Taylor, Dolt's brother. One advantage of the ar rangement is that the ancestors of the candidates will be free from the attacks of the opposition press. EVEitY man should exercise his free und untranuneled will in making up his ticket for the primary. Shun slates and combinations us you would a pestilence. They are always gotton up to entrap the unwary, and should be squelched every time. What we want, and we must get, is an honest expres sion of the will of the people, not the echo of a ring or clique. Berkeley county politics are queer. At a recent mass meeting to select municipal officers for the town of Mount Pleasant it was decided, to satisfy everybody, to give two places 'on the ticket to Americans, two to Germans and two to the negroes. There seems to be an idea there, accepted generally, that German citizens and negroes are not Americans. Fon once in their journalistic lives our esteemed cotemporarie.s, the News and Courier and Columbia Register, have found something they agree about, and that is that the Richland County delegation in the late State Conven tion voted wrodg in supporting some of the candidates they did. If our friends will keep up the kre-feast long enough it might ripen into, endur ing friendship. Who can say ? The News and Courier may blow just as much tis it pleases about civil ser vice in South Carolina being popular and all that, but we will wager a hat that four-fifths of the Democrats of the State on a direct vote would be in favor of President Cleveland's turning the last Republican out of office and tilling his place with a good Democrat. That is the kind of a civil service re form we want, and the quicker we get it the better. Mit. blaine is about to satisfy a long-felt doubt, The news comes from Maine that he is about to take advanced ground in favor of a strict enforce ment of the prohibitory law, and he has come to the conclusion that tem porizing is no longer practicable. Well, J this is honest at all events, and, so far, admirable. The Republican party, suc cessful on a total abstinence plank, however, would be in power just about one year. At the end of that time it would have drunk itself to destruction. A Connecticut constable started with a prisoner to Iladdaui jail last week, and on 'he way both got so drunk that the jailer could not tell which wits constable and which con vict, and had to lock them both up until they had sobered off. And this till hap pened in the "blue law State" where everybody is good by statue?where on Sunday even the roosters refuse to crow, the hens neglect to lay, corn ceases growing and water hesitates to run down hill. It must be that the story is a lie driven out of Rhode Island by thirst. Tue Savannah News is well pleased with the President's action in filling the Custom House and Post Office in Savannah with good Democrats. Doth are solid citizens, and have been tried and found true in peace and war. They will make excellent officers. The Augusta Chronicle, from which the above is taken, says that is the kind of civil service reform it likes, and which even the Savannah News has grown at last tu love. We congratulate our Augusta cotcmporary upon the con version of the Savannah News and hope it will now turn its attention to the News ami Courier and win that journal from the error of its way. The Spirit of the Primary. It is proper for the voters of Orange burg County, ia adopting the primary system of selecting candidates, to con sider well, the additional responsibility thrown upon each individual member of the Democracy. Heretofore, a Dem ocratic club would select one-twelfth of its membership, ami send as dele gates to a County Convention, charged with the duty of choosing the Demo cratic candidates to be voted for at the regular election. Now, instead of the convention method the mem hers of each club will assemble at its place of meet ing and will ballot directly for the can didates themselves. According to the one plan, the individual members of the various clubs entrust the duty of selection of candidates to a certain number of picked men from each club, who meet together in one place, and confer, and make up a ticket, Accord ing to the other plan, there are as many separate places of voting, as there are clubs, and there is but little opportuni ty of one club's knowing what the other clubs are doing at the same time. The spirit of the primary system is to be found in this feature?the absence of combinations and mutual agree ments. In the convention, there is the opportunity of members from differ ent sections conferring together, and interchanging views, and each know ing what the other is likely to do. Jlut in the primary, when a man casts his ballot, he has no opportunity of inquiry beyond the limits of his own club, and he must therefore be very particular to exercise his own judgment, in voting for the best men; for if he is going to rely on the representations of others, he might as well have let those others have settled the whole matter for him in a convention. In fact, the primary system is the assertion of each voter's individual views of the candidate pro posed, and the candidate who is satis factory to a majority of the voters, is entitled at the regular election, to the entire vote of the party. There is the same honorable obligation upon every voter, who casts a ballot at the prima ry election, to vote the full ticket se lected, that there is in every enrolled Democrat to support the nominees of a Democratic Convention. When ;i Dem ocrat votes at the primary election, he thereby binds himself as a man of hon or, to vote at the regular election, even if it should happen, that not a single candidate whom he voted for at the primary, succeeds in getting a place on the ticket. This being the case, it makes but little difference how the candidates are selected. The Demo crats of Orangcburg County can be re lied on to nominate good men, and to unite manfully in their support on election day. The New Silver Certiflmtes. Congress, with singular unanimity, passed a law during its last session, providing for the issuing of silver cer tificates of the denominations of one dollar, two dollars and five dollars. Heretofore no silver certificate were issued below ten dollars. This was a measure which must have been satis factory to the gold men, and the silver men, and the bi-metallists, who believe in both gold and silver, for under the rules of the House, a single objection, or the raising of a point of order, would have prevented the consideration of the matter at all. This means that in stead of carrying silver dollars about with you, you let the government keep your dollars for you, and give you cer tificates for them, and whenever you want the dollars, you can get them in exchange for the certificates. Of course, everybody will take the certifi cates, and they will buy anything that the silver dollars will buy. It is esti mated that the loss of weight of coined money by wearing away while in use, is so great, that the saving of the wear of the coin by abrasion will be suflici ent of itself to build, twice over, the vaults for storing the silver on which the certificates will be issued. The certificates will be ready for issue about the first of November. They are to lie of very handsome design, and will re semble greenbacks in appearenee. . The .Mexican t?niliru|;lio. Secretary Jlayard bus sent Mr. A.C. Sedgewick, of New York, to the seat of the trouble in Mexico to investigate the matter and report to him. The mission is in no sense one of a diploma tic nature, but is simply to secure for the department full information in re gard to the case, and until a report is made, our war-like friends will have to keep cool. Mr. Sedgewick, in addi tion to securing records, will look up all the facts in the case and study its legal features, reporting fully and early to the Secretary. No further steps are contemplated by the department until his report. We hope the mission of Mr. Sedgewick will prove successful, and that there will be no cause for a war between this country and Mexico. War is a bad thing, and we trust that there will be no hasty action to pre cipitate matters. Aside from tlie idea being falacious that it would be a kind of frolic for us to clean Mexico up, it would cost us thousands of lives, and make thousands of widows and orphans. With these facts before us, we cannot get up one iota of enthus iasm for war until all peaceful methods have failed. We would only advocate war as the last extremity to uphold our national honor. j Furniers and PolltlcH. The Spirit of the Farm of Nashville, Term., claims that when a farmer he comes a politician he ceases to be use ful on the farm. It is neglected and goes to waste and ruin. The farm de mands the whole time and attention of its followers, and it is the same with politics. The one or the other must succumb and as a rule it is the farm which sufl'ers. To this the Tobacco Leaf, of Clarksville, Tenn., responds with the assurance that the Spirit of the Farm need not confine its remarks on this subject to farmers. There is no vocation that does not demand full time from those who engage in it. The merchant who dabbles in politics linds after a time that his neighbor, more attentive to business than he, gets the lion's share of the trade while the law yer returns to his ollice after a season at the State or National Capital-to Imd the-bulk of his practice in other hands. But, on the other hand, if the olliccs are not placed in the keeping of good men the country goes to the demni tion bow-wows and the individual goes with it. Something is demanded of every patriot, and the patriotic farmer -can serve his country as faithfully as the lawyer, in whose breast the love of country burns as a consuming fire. The misfortune just now seems to be there are more patriots than olliccs. Do Your Duty. We trust that every Democratic voter will study well the list? of can didates, and will also make it a point to attend tin; meeting appointed in his section of the County for the discus sion of campaign issues. Universal primary is based on universal knowl edge of the requirements of the situa tion. But the people must not expect that the primary system will make crops grow hotter, or cotton bring a higher price, or give every man a for tune or an ollice. It must be remem bered that nearly all of the Counties of the Slate, have had the primary sys tem for some time, while Ornngeburg has had the convention plan, and our public ollicers have done as well as any of the others, and our County is as well oil' to-day as'our sister Coun ties. The great object of either the primary or the convention system, is to keep the good government that we have attained at so much cost in the past, Good government preserves our rights, but our own private pluck and energy and hard, work makes our pros perity. _ Death ufCicii. Sluiiigault. General A. M. Managault, the Ad jutant anil Inspector General of South Carolina, died at South Island, last Monday afternoon. As the News and Courier truly says this news will be a shock to :the State, whose people hlrve thrice honored Gen. Manigault with the important and responsible office which he held at the time of his death, and were about to pronounce tin em phatic "Well done, thou good and faith ful servant," by electing him to the .same high position for the fourth time. General Manigault was a hero of two wars, having' served his country both in the Mexican and the Confederate wars, in the hitter of which he was twice wounded. He was a good and true man, and his death is a great loss to the State, which he has faith fully served with credit and honor to himself._ We may expect, as a result of the primary system, that our roads will be greatly improved; for our candi dates will now have to travel all over the County, to talk State and County politics, and the successful ones will sec to it, when they go to Columbia, that the roads are put in line travel ing order before, the next campaign, so'that they can make the rounds the next time with more comfort to man and beast, and more security to vehicle. And whoever is elected County Com missioner, will know all about the bridges to be mended, the causeways to In; improved, and the highways which needs work, so that hereafter we may expect to have line facilities for County travel, and all owing to the primary system. Tin: great merit of the primary sys tem is that a man does his political work himself, and does not entrust it entirely to others to do for him. The same principle should be extended to our every day callings. The farmer, especially,should not appoint delegates to make big crops for him; he should have a primary in the corn field und the cotton patch, and do some of the agricultural voting himself with the plough-ballot and the hoe-ballot, if he wants?his crops to secure the nomina tion._ A iiLOODY riot at Belfast, Ireland, commenced last Saturday evening and continued until early Monday morning. Eleven persons were killed and 3u seri ously wounded. A painful feature of the riots is the killing of a woman and wounding of a number of children. When will the Irish people learn any sense. Many of the fossils in the Depart ment at- Washington are being dis charged. There are many others, some of whom probably arc not fossils, stricly. that might be discharged with profit to the Government, and eminent I satisfaction to the Democracy. Candidates can have their tickets printed at this ollice in the neatest | manner and at low rates. I Greenwood is a dry town. Twenty six barrels of Whiskey have been sold there, however, since .January 1. Gen. E. W. Moise has been brought out as a candidate for the Demo cratic Congressional nomination in the Seventh District. It is understood that Capt. 1). K. Till man will decline a nomination for the Legislature. This is to be regretted and Vi^ll cause, a recast of tickets in Edgefield County. The family of the Misses McWhite, one of whom was killed and the other permanently injured in the Santee trestle calamity, have instituted suits against the Northeastern Roiid for 8o0,000 damages. The Georgetown Enquirer is the champion political prophet. It named the whole State ticket the day before the nominations were made?except State Treasurer, about which office it made no prediction. Pedec Index says: "The Duwson Sheppard-Tillman-Aiigusta conspiracy to pocket the small State of South Car olina, resulted in a greater failure than its predecessor, the Blaine-Butler Chandler combination at Sheepshead Bay." The amount collected in this State from internal revenue for the year ending June 30, 1886, was $100,014.90, as follows: Tax on distilled spirits, $62,714.05; tobacco and cigars, 821,159.22; fermented liquors, 814,697.21; miscella neous sources, $300.94; penalties, $1,141.98. Mr. W. A. Bradley, conductor on the South Carolina Railway, has served the company for over thirty years, and has been longer in service" than any con ductor in the United States, except a Mr. Davis, who is employed by the Old Colony Railroad, between Pall River and Boston. IT. M. Sullivan, secretary of the board of trustees of the State' Universi ty, at Oxford, Miss., was shot and killed Sunday night by J. M. [Iowey, a law professor of the University. The cause of the difficulty is said to be differences that have existed for some time be tween the professor and the trustees. The Xewberry Observer says: "As one' of the curiosities of poliliccs, the two lawyer delegates .from Xewberry voted for a farmer for Governor; three farmer delegates voted for a lawyer, and three other fanner delegates voted for a banker, who is also a lawyer. There was certainly no class prejudice among the Xewberry delegation, ISaeh delegate voted for the man he thought best fitted for the position. And Unit is the proper way to vote always." Georgetown Enquirer: "The Town Council is considering the expediency of introducing- the electric light for the illumination of our streets. With this end jn view it is now corresponding with the company which recently en tered into a contract for the lighting of AsheviUe, X. C. by means of electric towers. It is estimated that the cost of lighting the streets of Georgetown would be about 8800 a year, or 8200 more than the cost of the present sys tem." .Just for curiosity, Mr. S. McG. Sim kins, a young lawyer of the Edgelield Ear, went over the Sessions docket, for the past twelve years to see how many eold-bloodei murders had been e<>m mitted.in that County and brought to trial during that time, and the result arrived at shows one hundred and twelve, distributed as follows: 1ST I, 16; 1875, 4; 1876, 4, 1877. 12; 1K78. 14; 1879,3; 188ii,7: 1881,8; 1882,5: 1883, 5; 1884, 5: 1885, 15; 1880, 14. The Spartanburg Herald savs; 'Ml. P. Ezell, an intelligent colored man formerly from the Cherokee section of this county, has just returned from Arkansas and Texas where he has U.-en on an inspecting expedition. He re ports the colored people who have gone out there as in a bail way. Between the rain and the droughts they find a hard time in making a crop. His opinion is that the colored folks had better stick to South Carolina, and he has come back to follow his own advice." There was a split in the Congression al Convention of the Sixth District at Florence on Wednesday, on the ques tion of primary, which was advocated by Marion and Clarendon, and was de feated by the votes of the other Coun ties. A motion to adjourn the conven tion to a future day, so as to make the nominations after the 1st of September, as required by the Democratic consti tution, was Voted down, and Hon. George W. Dargan was nominated over Mr. Pressley Barron by a vole of 2:i to 8. The Marion delegation withdrew from the convention. The Rani well People says: "Many people and papers accuse Capt. 15. It. TiUtnan of hypocrisy because he sup ported the candidacy of Hon. John C. Sheppard, a lawyer,"for Governor. In doing as he did Capt. Tillman only obeyed the unanimous instruction of his county convention and gave at least one practical proof of his oft re peated assertion that the farmers' movement was strictly non-political and not intended to provoke class an tagonisms. The People, that criticised him when mounting toward the zenith of his power, now, in the hour of his defeat, says that he did exactly rigid." No Trad ill); Voir*. Editor Times und Democrat : As the time for holding primaries i he throughout the County is drawing near, it would be well for the voters of the County to steer clear of all combina tions. I was told by one who was ad vocating the claims of a free tuition candidate for the Legislature that his man could get the nomination by forming combination with candidates for other offices. I trust that there is no such men candidates for ollice in our County, and if there is such, those opposetl to free tuition should let them severely alone. For one who will barter principle for ollice is dangerous. Let those opposed to free tuition stand firmly together in voting for mem bers of the House of Representatives and there can be but one result. Op position to free ttttion do not mean opposition to higher education, but let those who want it pay for it. August 16, 1886. Dkmoci: vt. i got back !
