On our first page will be found Haskell's manifesto, and on this page will be found proceedings of the in dependents in Horry and Marion, al-. so a call issued by a conference held last Monday in Columbia. We have heretofore in full and in no unmistak able language expressed our views on such a movement, and this week we simply publish short interviews from several distinguished gentlemen of the State, each of whom was an Anti but a Democrat withal, and we close with an editorial from the News and, Courier. Our first interview is from Hon. Joseph F. Bhamp, State senator from this county, and a number of years county chairman of the Claren don Democracy. He is well known to our people, and his words just now will be read with interest. He shows bimsAl as all have expected of him to be, a true Democrat: SEM On JosEPI 7. FBBME says: In the late political canvass, I wasasup porter of Col. Joseph H. Earle, than whom, in my opinion, a more suitable man for governor could not nave been found in the State, and in saying this much I miean just what I have said. The- advocates of Capt. Tillman, in making their choice of men for State and county officers, religiously con fned their choice to such as openly avowed that he was their choice for governor, and ignored and practically excluded from nom ination every aspirant for office who did not avow such preference. In pursuingthis course I think the supporters of Capt. Till -man acted 'unjustly and unwisely, and such a test of fitness for office should never have been applied. Nctwithstanding the exist ence of these facts, it appears to me, that though somewhat irregularly expressed, the will of a large majority of the white Demo eatic voters of this State has been declared by the result ot the work of the September r ' convention, and that will, so pronounced, has taken shape in favor of Capt. Tillman and the other nominees on the State ticket. As a Democrat I do not now feel warranted in supporting any movement looking to the election in November next, of any other person for governor and State officers, be they who they may, than the nominees of that September convention. * BoN. LEBOY P. YoUMANS, E-Attorne'y General of the State, says: 1 have only to say that I am opposed to any movement which would place any ticket in t-ha field in op tion to the regular State Democratic ti I shall support that ticket, and inso doing regard my action as a duty required by my fealty to the Demo crtie party of the State. . ,.nRAtwLEY, cndidate for congrs from the first district, in a speech at ragcharg last Monday, said that while he deprecated the Shell man ifeto and its charges, and had not favored Mr. Tilhnan for Governor, and while he did not even think the ticket nominated by the September convention was composed of as stng men as usually made up the Demo cetic State ticket, nevertheless he would support it, as was the.duty of every Demo .at to supportit. emnv s.aMUEL DTBBLE, walso made a speech at the -same time, held that the Democracy must stand togeth erHe opposed B. R. Tillman heartily till noiaebut now that Tillman is the nminee of the Democratic party for Gov ernor he is ready to work for his election and nfaneesary to even fight for it. Talk of an Independent ticket, why. he did not be hoeve that any of the true Democrats of 76 are going back on the nominee of the Dem crtic party whether they like it or not. coL. wnz.r JoNEs, casbier of the Carolhna National Bank, who ~ ears was secretary of the executive com mittee, and who is now treasurer of that' body, says: I did ailiin my power to defeat1 the nmination of Capt. Tillman for Gov ernor, and was as much opposed to the March covention as aman could be. I will vote for no independent. Capt. Tillman' has been nominated by a very large majori ty in a regularly called h.tate Democratic convention, andlIfeel it to be my duty as a Democrat tovote for him and the entire Democratic State ticket. coL. Y. H. MCM&AsTEE, mayor of Columbia, and a very bitter Anti, says: I will vote the full Tillman ticket, -because I believe it is the duty of each in dividual of a party to vote for every nomi -nee-made by its convention. When mcm brs of ta party join jn a convention, for the: purpose of nominating officers, they are morally bound, to submit to the arbitrament. of the ballot, and have no moral right to scratch a smngle name at the polls. This is the principle underlying conventions, and any other rule will destroy the discipline of a party.. COL.. WHrsAnt WALLIACE, a prminent gentleman of Columbia, says: ere I, calling myself a Democrat, and hav ing acted with the party in its deliberations' and discussions up to this time, to advocate the running of an Independent ticket and, call upon our worst political enemies to support it, I should feel that I was a traitor to my State, and would justly merit such~ infmy as clings to the name and memory of Benedict Arnold. TEE NEws AND COURIER in an editorial last afonday says: There1 was a time to combat Tillmian and Tilmanism. That time was while the con test could be made within the Democratic ranks, or at least under the name of Democ racy. So long as there was a shadow of a chance to keep Tillman and his clique out of control of the Democratic party, the News and Courier strove, with all its might, to accomplish that end, as the best thing for the pryand the State. If the men who have been prominent in the Democratic party of South Carolina heretofore had had the courage of their con victions, and had stood up to the News and Courier, Tillman could have been beaten and the Democratic party saved. If at the last Straightout Conference there had been unanimus action and a State primary had been demanded as an ultimatum to decide which faction of the Democratic party was really in the majority, the alternative being presented of an appeal to the polls, we be jieve the primary would have been granted; and if it had been refused, the Straightouts would at least have had color for the claim that they were the true Democratic party of1 the State. But all that is past. The opportunity was lost. This is no time to fight Tillman or' Tmmanism. A renewal of the conflict now is mere folly and madness, for success can only be accomplished by disrupting, nay destroying, the Deocratic party. The party that defeats the regular Democratic ticket at this election must do so by the aid of the Republicans, and this, in the light of past experience, is enough of itself to condemn the whole movement. 'The News and Cou rier fought, as it said it would, just so long as there was any chance to fight within the , n- cati orgnizan- hat cnition no longer exists, and we have never pro- I posed to fight. under any other condition. If there bad continued to be no organized opposition to the ticket of the September ,onvention, we would have been content to bave it rebuked by receiving a very small vote at the polls. But the Haskell inani resto, the Marion call, and intelligence from various parts of the State iudicate th:.t there is to be a ticket iut in the itd on the lines marked out by Judge lIaskeli. We think that this wolid be simply snilidal. Cer taitly, after such a contest there could lie little hope of restoring the integrity of the Democratic party, and that is now the first duty of every true Democrat. Tie only Democratie ticket now, and the only Demo cratic ticket we can have, is the ticket of the September convention; and we iunst elect it now in order that we may retain the power to elect a better ticket two years hence. Stand by the ticket, not for the ticket's sake, but for the party and the State! Mr. S. R Chandler, of Motts, refus ed to accept the nomination for the legislature from the Haskellians in Florence county. The Republican State executive committee and the conference of Straightout Haskellians met last Mon day in Columbia. -It was a coinci dence: wonder if there was any con nection or conference between the two bodies? The Haskell manifesto has .iven our town politicians a new subject to discuss, but with very few exceptions there is a feeling of disapproval. The people from the country that were in town Monday, Antis as well as Till manites, say that they propose to stand by the nominees of the Demo cratic party, and that they cannot af ford to split. One of the hardest fought political battles in'this campaign of hard polit ical fights, has been that in the fourth district, which in the second primary was between Shell and Duncan. Each side exerted its strength to the ut most tension,,and though Mr. Duncan had the aristocracy and most of the newspapers on his side, and all active ly fighting for him, yet it looks as if Shell has won the fight. The second primary was held yesterday, and it is claimed that Shell is several hundred votes ahead, and that the official count will give him a majority of over a thou sand votes. The vote throughout the district was very large. Haskellismn in Clarendon. It is rumored that a meeting will be held in town this afternoon, for the purpose of selecting representatives to go to Columbia to-morrow to act with the party that desires to put forward a ticket to defeat the regular Democrat nominees. We asked a promi nent gentleman of this town, who was mak ing preparations for the meeting, if the meet ing or conference would be public and how many were expected to attend. He replied that it would not be public and only those in sympathy with the movement were in vited to attend. He thought there would probably be ten or fifteen persons present, and that there would be representatives from Foreston and Summerton. We forgot to ask if they expected also to put out a coun ty ticket. .ThTs movement will fall very flat in Clar endon. We do not believe there are a half dozen Democrats in the county who will vote against the Democratic ticket; in fact the gentleman above alluded to is the only one in the county, with whom we have con versed on the subject, who has said he would not vote the Democratic ticket as nominated in September. A good many don't like Till man and .fought him hard, but like true Democrats they will now vote the whole ticket straight. If there are a dozen men in that caucus this afternoon we will be badly mistaken in the stuff that the Clarendon Democracy is made of. 6.15 p. M.-The caucus met this af ternoon and elected B. P. Barron, W. S. Harvin, P. G. Benbow, J. H. Mc Knight, and W. M. Plowden as dele gates. Other delegates, we learn, will be sent from Foreston. Very few were present. Best Houses to Deal With. As handsome a line of furniture as can be found anywhere can be seen at the exten sive establishment of Jos. F. Norris, Charles - ton. If in want of furniture it will pay you tc get his prices. Gen. A. Schiffley has opened up a large sale stable in Charleston, and he offers first class horses and mules at remackably low prices. Sec advertisement. WI. J. Black, one of the oldest men in the stock business, announces to the people of this county that he has removed to corner of Market and Church streets, Charleston. His stacles are full of horses and mules. Arthur L. Macbeth. of Charleston, claims to be the only colored photographer in the State, and he does fine work at the lowest prices. Give him a call when in Charleston. Our Greeleyville Letter. GREz.ErvnLF, Oct. 3.-The pohticalcam paign has ended, and so haye the dog days. The mocking bird sings inerrily, in utter ig norance of the whereabouts of the candi date or the dog star. I agree with you en-* tirely as to the action of the executive coma mittee in this county. But you don't know, perhaps, that the idea is to go with the ma jority. even though the laws and regulations have to be disregarded. Mr. Win. Cooper and Mr. F. Marion Brit ton were active members of the farmers' movement in this county when there was no politics nor Tillmanismn in it. Mr. Brit ton was the first vice president of the coun ty association; Mr. Cooper was formerly a member of the legislature. They are both left out of the offices they were seeking. Tilmanismn has left tbe farmers' movement "in the vocative," as the schoolboys used to say. The weather for weeks past has been very unfavorable to cotton in the pods and pea vine bay cut and ungathered. The latter will not be totally ruined however, left to dry before housing it will be fair forage. Horses and cattle, with a sufficiency of con entrated food, still need bulky provender, and this the pea vine hay will furnish. The ladies of the Mount Hope Baptist church recently furnished a supper at this place for the purpose of raising money with which to purchase an organ for the church. They realized nearly fifty dollars. There has been a young men's prayer meeting organized at New Market Metho dist church. At this church and also at Richmond Presbyterian church there is a Sabbath-school. Miss Lucilla Montgomery has been ill for some time past. It is said of a lady of this county that her birthday occurs only once every four years, while an old man of..this place declares he never had but one in his life, and has no recollection of that one. We sincerely sympathizewvith the paren ts of those children who recently fell into wells of water. Cannot something be done to prevent such accidents? The board of health, or the town council, or the parents themselves should take the matter in hand. It would never do to yoke or hobble the children, and perhaps the next surest plan would he to fill the wells with earth. STATE OF OHio, C IrY OF TOLEDO, I Lrchs CoT'v, FRaxx J.

What is Scrofula It is that imipurity in the blood, which, acumu lating in the glands of the neck, produces un sightly lumps or swellings; which causes painful running sores on the arms, legs, or feet; which developes ulcers in the eyes, ears, or nose, often causing blindness or deafness; which is the origin of pimples, cancerous growths, or many other manifestations usually ascribed to " humors." It Is a more formidable enemy than consumnptioni or cancer alone, for scrofula combines the worst possible features of both. Being the most ancient, it is the most general of alt diseases or affections, for very few persons are entirely free from it. How can it be cured ? By taking Hood's Sarsa parilla, which, by the cures It has accomplished, often when other medicines have failed, has proven itself to be a potent and peculiar medicine for this disease. For all affections of the blood Hood's sarsaparilais unequalled, and some of the cures it has effected are really wonderful. If you suffer from scrofula In any of Its various forms, be sure to give Hood's Sarsaparilla a trial. Hood's Sarsaparilla soldbyndruggists. SI; slxforj5. Preparedonly - by C. I.
