Now it is due to them and io bm that even greater enthusiasm .shaU be exhibited in getting him elected. Let us rally to a man, and give the good, old fashioned, regular Democratic nominees the heaviest Democratic majority ever cast in this ~;ouny Attend your club meeting next Sat urday and the following Saturday, 4th of November let every man in the county, who has a spark of for the success of our dear old go to the polls early and there till the last vote is counted.

OSTAD TO THE PARTY. The Democratic party of South Car na met in convention in the city of PV nmbia the tenth day of September under the call of the regular P5 ' htout and only legally consti Democratic executive commit t the.very same body that has a! called together all of our nomi abgconventions since the memnora daysof 76.That convention was eopsdof regularly elected dele - electedjider the rules of the ta party and by Democratic ~v4es represent the party and the in making nominations for a Stieket. The delegates carried ~u~heir instructions by putting for ~articket to be voted for in the bigeral election, and the people had a.vry assurance that once the nomina were made all opposition would and thus put an end to political battle. But such is case. A few men who were ~eposed to the nominations made by ~polassembled in Columbia on lis 9th of this month and bade defi 1he wishes of the majority by anther ticket in the field,iwith - that the colored vote would 'to assist them in prevent ~itemajority of the Democrsey electing their choice. We cer did not expect such a condition ~ttignevertheless it is here. . ~<nhfirst place the affair is to be ~ertoinasmuch as the instigators ~'ci movement are men that we 2keheretofore always held in high readand were the last from whom b~etsuch conduct. In the see 4&3aeit brings about a condition 4thnsthat the white people have lasfetduty bound to prevent. ~efoewe should stand by our iniesand not encourage a set of ae i their efforts to disrupt our ~pryorganization. The will of the has already been expressed, iis our duty to see to it that the -ifof the people is not thwaited. Let am stanid to and redeem our pledges ~made to thracy. It be borne in mind thati enaman consented for his name hafte placed on a Democratic elub mil1he did so under the rules of the party, and one of the principal rules was pledging himself to abide the aeiion of the party and to discoun sassince all opposition. This was re 4ired in order to prevent the very :anatina of-things that is now upon and to keep the party intact, that jwieman's supremacy might be and ami a certainty. This rule has al ~ways been recognized and adhered to with strict fidelity by all true Demo erate, and it is to be hoped that the few who now refuse to abide the de sion will have asmall following. If we were not pledged to stand to the anminatins, then why was it that our leaders, yes, some of the very men who are now foremost in this inde pendent movement, insisted on the people's frowning down independent wun, and raised the cry that an inde pendent is an enemy to our State and worse than a radical? They taught us this, and experience teaches us it is true. We are aware of the fact that these gntlemen claim themselves to be "true Democrats," and give as a reason for their conduct that everything done by the Democratic convention was ir regular, and being irregular relieves them from any obligations heretofore umade to the party. Yet they recog zized theregularity of the convention by participating in its proceedings. The true secret lies in the fact that they were defeated! In our judg ment they have a lame excuse for boltingthe nominations whether reg ular or irregular. Now if they had refused to participate in the conven tions and had not allowed themselves to be represented, then possibly their reasoning might be of some force, but the fact is they did participate in ev econvention, either as delegates or bdelegates chosen by the respective conty conventions, and these dele ates represented them in these bod. I es and made nomiuations in accord anee with the call of the proper au thorities. Yet they claim they are not bound! How they can make up their minds to believe themselves un bound is certainly a mystery beyond our comprehension. t The question may be asked, by f whose authority was the Haskell ticket nominated ? and the only answer that can be truthfully given is that a few t men, not even all representative men, ( met together and selected themselves I to go to Columbia to put out a ticket. i There was no public call inade for the purpose in this county, and there was no invitation extended to all "true! Democrats" to assemble together to discuss the advisability of such ac tion. It was simply a meeting of not over a dozen men that took the privi lege of assuming the right to show t the Democracy of Clarendon that they would not be bound by the party j pledge, and rather than submit to the will of the majority of the white peo- 1 ple they would try to bring about a t condition of things that for years we I have been fighting to prevent. I To these men we can only say that we regret the stand they have seen fit to take, but the people will always know, yes, their children will know, ] and only death itself will ever drive away the remembrance of the men who endeavored to arrogate to them- i selves the right to snatch from us our rights and liberties, in order to grati- t fy a spleen and carry into execution t the threat of Jos. W. Barnwell that t Tillman should never be governor. As we have already said, we regret t this condition of things. We hoped t for something better, but whether it is t simply a difference of opinion, or a I damnable scheme prompted by the i bitterness of defeat to sell us out to ( the Radicals, it is our duty to give our t views, and call upon the people that s want to uphold the regular Democracy ( now and forever, to lay aside all other I matters and work for the cause. i It is not our purpose to be extreme v and stir the minds of the people to a c high pitch of excitement, but we feel e it to be onr duty to hoist the danger c signal and to send out a warning to the Democracy of this county, that a division in our ranks would be estab- t LshiDg a precedent that is bound to result with disaster to the future pros- e perity of the party whose principles t we hold dear. It is the duty of every Democrat to rally to the standard of d Democracy, the regular Democracy, a the Democracy that made its nomina- 1 Lions on the 10th of September, and to whose support every Democrat is pledged. The election of Haskell, were it possible, matters not how a much he is personally admired, would 3 ot be voicing the sentiments of a ma" ority of the party, and would but bring about such a condition of things is would take years to reconcile.. t An Ilependnt Ivts obeginning, no end. HE u UbST BE A RADICAL. 7here is no lulf og owf.-Speech of Senator M. C. But er, -tober 31, 1878.V Senator Butler Gires liis Views of the r iHaskell Movement. Senator Butler has freely expressed d himself on the political situation, and a below is a part of what lhe had to say: "The Democratic convention met in. Columbia on the 10th of September t ast to nominate State officers. It was C convened in pursuance of a call, reg- t alarly made by the properly consti sted authorities of the Democratic - party, to wit, its executive committee. . thorough canvass of the State had been made by the candidates, and the convention by a very large majority t put a ticket in the field. I shall sup port that ticket. Whether it is a bad or agood ticket it is not for me to I say. A majority of my party associ ates have selected it and that is C enough for me. I am not better than my party. No man is-speaking of the party in the aggregate. Whenever the policies, principles, or member ships of the Democratic party becomea so odious to me that I cannot main- fa ain my relations with them with self- f respect, I shall withdraw and join some other party. There is no middle ground in this State, no half-way house. A man must be either a Dem- ~ oerat or a Republican." Senator Hampton says he is oppos- 1 ed to Haskellism, and will support the regular Democratic ticket. Of course he will, for Hampton has said inde- r pendentismi is worse than radicalism. I Tihe Republicans of this county I have issued an address, published in a another column, which is chokefull of good, sound judgment. There is contained therein much food for sober thought.s Each board of managers of election should organize as soon as practica ble, by electing a chairman and a clerk. Mlanagers will be paid one 1 dollar a day and five cents a mile. Each board will also be allowed a clerk, who will also receive one dollar a day. Best Houses to Deal With.I t When you visit Charleston be sure and call upon C. W. Blake & Co. You will tind them under the Academy of Music. They have recently opened, and they carry a very complete line of stoves, ranges, lamps, house furnishing goods, &c. These gentle men are young, active business m en. and are anxious to open up a trade with the people of this section. Read their ad ver tisement and write for prices. ODonnell & (o. are among the largest merchants in the city of Sumter. They have a very extensive patronage among the farm ers of this county, and especially among the members of the alliance. They have a very large stock this year, which they offer to the purchasing public at prices that defy competition. H. Harby, of Sumter, has received a fine lot of horses, mules, wagons, road carts, &c., which are advertised in another column. Mr. Harby is well known to our readers, and1 when in need of anything in his line don't fail to give him a call. Win. M. Graham, of Sumter, has a large stock of wagons, carts, buggies, carriages, surreys. p)hmtons, and harness, and his sta bles are always filled with a large number of horses and mules. You can go to his estab-1 ishment and buy what you need in his line at satisfactory prices. Mr. L. E. LeGrand, whose advertisement appears in another column, has recently opened a first class jewelry store in the city of Sumter, and he invites our readers to visit him and inspect his stock. He carries] an elegant line of clocks, watches, chains, ear-rings, breast pins. scarf pins, and sleeve buttons. He also has a repairing depart ment connected with his establishm ent, and the most careful attention is given to all work entrusted to him. Give him a call. R. W. DuRant & Son, of ,Sumter, keep a magnificent line of hardware, .utlery, and all kinds of farming implements. This is a rehable house, and ciar readers will do H well to give them s call when in need of an- oods in their line. 1ASKELLISM IS MAHONEISM ,earn a Lesson from the Degradation 1 Virginia Caused by "Straightouts." (Abbeillle Medium.] At this crisis in the political histor f our State the fate of Virginia an he rise and downfall of Mahonei ull of instruction and of warning t ur people. That shameful record began just a he bolt in this State has been evolve( len. Mahone was a "-Democrat c )emocrats," and no one stood highe a the party than he did or enjoye uore fully the confidence of all Vii ,inians. He aspired to the Govert irship, was, indeed, the leading cand late but was defeated in the Conveu ion. He then claimed to be straightout" and appealed to the n< tro to avenge his wrongs, claiming a he time ihat he was within the line >f "pure Democracy" and that his ol ect was to-purify the party. He sut :eeded in electing Cameron governo: timself United States senator, and a erwards Riddleberger, not as Repul icans but as "Straightout Democrats Even after he was seated in the Set te, when taunted with treachery b 3en Hill he repudiated the charg nd declared that he was a "bette )emocrat than Hill." What - was the result? Mahot .nd his white allies, who had used th iegroes to defeat the regular Demot aey found the negroes stronger tha hemselves. They could not main ain their own supremacy excep krough the machinery of the Repubi an party and by the manipudation q 'e Republican Federal patronage S hey were forced against their u-ill int he Republican party, from which th aore decent of them, such as Came on and Moseby, are now seeking t scape, besmirched and degraded b heir humiliating association. An t last the negro has become stronge ven than Mahone himself for the las 3onth the negro Langston was seate a Congress against his oppositio nd protest. Speaking of the retur f these misguided men to the Demc ratic party the Richmond Dispatcj f last Friday, says: "Thousands of our white men some year go drifted into the Republican party befor iev were aware of it. Olten have the ished to come back to their first love-bac ito the old family circle, back into th :mpanionship of the fine fellows who wer ieir comrades in battle and bivouac, i -eary marches and starving times, and i i1 ecstacy of victory and the sorrow o efeat. Many of these, we rejoice to say re now with us again. In RTchiond cit ot less than sixty have renounced Repul canism forever and taken their forme laces in the Democratic line." What were the consequences to Viz inia of that unholy alliance? Te: ears of degradation and shame! Ma onized, Republicanized, Africanizei er debt well-nigh repudiated, he redit weakened, her development r< irded, her people divided, and he roud name dragged through th 2ud!
