Just before the county convention last summer we warned the people to beware the campaign liar, and now we doubly warn them to beware this contemptible character. Last week it was rumored on these streets, and we know not where else, that Mr. S. A. Nettles had said in a conversation on the streets that he favored the use of bayonets at the polls. Now this was simply a malicious and contemptible lie out of the whole cloth. Mr. Nettles has never, publie ly or privately, openly or confidenti aly, given any such advice or favored any such scheme. It was largely and mainly through his efforts that cam paign day in this place last July was as quiet as it was. The very ones now talking about bayonets at the pols and endeavoring in this and other ways to engenider strife between the races, secretly and covertly doing their damnable dirty work, are proba bly the same ones who then wanted so badly to see a row here campaign ay. Mr. Nettles is opposed to rows of any kind, and he has advised against any such proceedings. He is in favor f a quiet and peaceable election, and is heartily in favor of having the first and every drunken disturber of the l-peace snatched .up and at once put behind the bars. He believes we will ae a quiet election, and is earnestly working for the same; and should there not be a quiet election, should there be a conflict between the races, be believes it will be due solely to the actions, open or secret or both, of the E&-Democrats who are now trying to korn earth and hell to see Haskell i-elcte; and who, in order that they nay-rule, are willing for the Demo m eatic party to go to pieces, and the -Badicals and carpetbaggers again to -have dominion over our now prosper ou State. Let us once again warn every one not to believe any of the lying ru mrs that will very probably be cir eulated on and just before election day. They will be many, but unless enu of your own knowledge'know the rmor tobe true, then believe itto be false,orninehundred and ninety-nine aot of every thousand 11ill be as false sfalscan be. Some of the support er of Haskell are mad to desperation, and willnot hesitate to stoop to any adepth to carry their point. Their'i pliyis that they had rather see the Stt. damned and Democracy ruined than that Tillman should be Govern-. r. Beware the campaign liar., H A L BOSSISM RULE? Jiad any poor man, or any man who does not belong to the Columbia ring 6taristocracy, attempted an inde pedent movement, it would hav4 been howled down by the Butlers and Hamptons and Haskells and other leading lights as damnable indepen-' datism, far worse than radicalism, but because Haskell is at the head of it, and others of like stamp are sup prting it, independentism has be come better than Democracy. Farmers, if ever there was need for oa togo tothe polls and show by your solid, undivided vote, that you:] do not intend longer to submit to such execrable bossism, now is the time. Haskell and his crowd mean smply that you, in endeavoring to a how that you want to vote as you please, are but a set of serfs and ' henchmen, unable to think for your-.3 selves and fit only to do the bidding of these aristocratic masters. Will youj submit? After saying they had rath- t er see your and their State eternally damned than that your choice for governor should be elected, will you by reaining at home allow this Has keticket tobe elected? Or worse stll, will you by going to the polls and casting your vote for Haskell show that you are willing for Democ racy to go down, and for Haskellisim, 1 independentisn, bossism to rule the E State? Every man must judge for himself -decide whether he will vote the reg- e uLr Democratic ticket, or go off on 1 independentism, on a new and untri ed sea with breakers rising high in the air. We believe Clarendon will prove true to herself, and will bury t independentism too deep ever to have t a shadow of respectability in Claren don counsy. We do not believe our r people will be laggards and let Dem LIFE AND LIBERTY! The Republicans of this county to lay endorsed the Haskell ticket. Chere will probably be a county tick At made up of whites and negroes put >ut on the day of election by the now Easkell-Radical party. Democrats, our duty is plain. Let there be no laggard. STAND TO THE PARTY. Next Tuesday will decide whether the white men of South Carolina are to perpetuate the principles of Dem ocracy, or surrender those principles for the sake of gratifying a few dis appointed men that were defeated by the people in the recent campaign. It has been said that there exists a ring in Columbia that will either rule or ruin, and the saying is proving itself a reality. The chief executive of the State seems to forget that the white people of South Carolina made him their governor, the same people that he is now loaning his official position to defeat. To make such a charge seems wrong, but it is true, and if true the people should know that they have been deceived, betrayed, and bartered away by the man they placed in charge of everything they hold dear. The governor of South Caro lina, instead of allowing the appoint ments for election officers to be made in the customary way, went to -work and made his appointments in accord ance with the wishes of the "Inde pendents," and that is not all, for we believe instructions were sent to most of the commissioners how and who they should appoint, because in most of the counties the managers of elec tion are "Independents" instead of regular Democrats, showing conclu sively that all this mischief was con cocted in Columbia, the "head center of devilment." If the governor was true to the peo ple that made him what he is, no In dependent would have dared to op pose the regular Democracy of the State, but with the election machin ery in the hands of a man who has already made a reputation of going back on his friends itis not surprising tlat we have been bartered away like so many sheep. The burning questions are for you to determine, for by your action next uesday you will say whether or not you will give your endorsement to the treacherous conduct of the man who has used his office to crush our liber ties and blast forever the hope of white man's supremacy; whether or not you sanction the conduct of the pledge-breaking set of men that have allowed themselves to mistake hate, prejudice, and defeat for patriotism; and whether or not you will silently allow these men to tear asunder the party that has given us comfort and protection. It is with you to say whether you are going to allow a self appointed few to hurl into your faces the insult that although white men you are not fit to select men to gov ern. Yes, it is for you to say whether you would rather be governed by men of your own selection, or by men that have been selected for you with out your knowledge or consent. All these questions must be decided by you on the election day, and home ar in your fields is not the place to render- the decision. The ballot box is the place. If you were conscien tious in the selection of your nomi nees have the manhood to prove it next Tuesday at the polls; turn out; work for the cause; do not imagine that things are now like they used to be: they are not. In the past the ring would put up a ticket and we voted or it whether it pleased us or not. We did not bolt No, every white Ean supported any and every~ ticket hat the convention nominated. But hbings have changed: the ring got beat; the people took a hand in the naking of the State ticket; and behold he result: A few cod fish aristocrats, ;ogether with some heelers and boot icks, say they won't submit to the tick it, and rather than allow themselves to se whipped they will let the State go nto the hands of the enemy. We are iot indulging in imagination. They ?ropose to rule or ruin, and through mt the State combinations are being~ nade with the Republicans, and they ui~sorting to all kinds- of schemes o cary on their desperate game. Thesa Independents have the au lacity to) claim to be Democrats, and n Marion county, where the call was nade for the Independent conven ion that nominated Haskell, a color d Republican was placed at the head >f the county ticket by the ".straight uts." This Republican is the leader >f the Republicanparty of that coun y, and by giving him a seat in the egislature i e is to give to the Haskell icket the colored vote. But this is iot all: in Horry county the straight >ts proposed to the Republicans that they would vote for Haskell they would give them one county commis oner and the jury commissioner. ven the juries of the land are to be wapped for votes. In Clarendon it ato be hoped that no such comnbina ions will be formed, but the opposi ion are working in secret, and there a no telling what plot is on foot, and he only way to prevent unscrupulous nen from springing their tricks on ou is to be on the alert. By all neans do not be over-confident, and hink because the Democratic party ias succeeded in making its nomina ions that you~r work is finished. We tave nominated the ticket, and we nust elect it. There is opposition, nd every one of us have a duty to erform, and we must have the man ood to perform that duty or the en my will succeed in their efforts to rush into submission the majority of he white voters of the State. The Independents are very hopeful. They are being encouraged by the tepublican endorsements in the sev ral sections of the State. In this ounty the Republicans very wisely efused to endorse Mr. Haskell or lapt. Tillmian, but still the Haskellites ount on getting a majority. They ave an idea that the colored people till support-their ticket. They also eel encouraged because they have a iajority on the board of managers at ome of the largest precincts, who ley think will do all in their power ainduce the colored voter to cast is vote for Haskell, but in this we be eve they are mistaken, as the colored ian realizes the fact that this is a fight etween white men, with nothing to e ained for him, matte not which way the political cat jumps. Demo crats, your duty is plain. If you want to uphold the Democracy you must go out to the polls and vote; let nothing keep you back, as it is a day of more importance to you than any other business that you might have. Re member that the question of selecting men was settled on the 10th of Sep tember; we are now fighting a ques tion of party and principle. A. C. Haskell, the leader, of the Independ ent movement, when somebody else's ox was being gored, said: "There is only one way by which we can hope to maintain an honest government, and every true citizen is bound to ad here to that, whatever his opinions of persons or local questione, and the way is to obey the voice of the major ity of the Democratic party. If he does not, he is a deserter, and should be so treated." In the face of such a declaration he is the first to make the break. Is he a deserter? and should he be so treat ed ? are questions to be answered in a practical way at the polls, and it is to be hoped that men will lay aside all feelings of disappointment and se riously consider whether it would be right to gratify the spleen'of a few or stick to the nominees of the pai ty as they have always done. If it was a crime to bolt the nominations of the Democratic party in 1887 it certainly must be now. White men, there is a future to con sider as well as a present to act; there fore it behooves you to seriously pon der over this matter, and then if you can with a clear conscience make up your minds to let the political future of this State get out of your grasp, vote against the nominees to whom you were pledged, but if you want the party of white supremacy to con tinue lay aside everything, make every sacrifice, and turn out on the 4th of November. It is not for yourselves alone, but for your wives and children as well. Good Advice. Several years ago I was covered with boils to such an extent that my life was a misery. After trying a number of other remedies without any benefit, I was advised by a whole sale druggist at Columbus to try S. S. S. (Swift's Specific.) One bottle of S. S. S. cured me entirely. I have not had a boil since. To those . afflicted with boils or skin eruptions I give the same advice my wholesale druggist gave me-take S. S. S. DAvrD ZAILxx, Druggist, Independence, Ohio.

Blanding, of Sumter, was in town Thursday, and interview ed a great many of our citizens on the Haskell movement, as well as "seeing" some of the colored leaders. What success he met with it is impossible to earn. Judge Haskell is the champion bolt er of the age. He first bolted the Democratic party and went over to the straightouts. After being voted down in two conferences, that were held by that wing of the party, he, bolted from them. This all proves that he is a rule or ruin man, and should be defeated. Coroner Judson is enthusiastic over, Easkell, and says he will get every colored vote as a general thing. We suggested to him that the negroes di vide, as the white men were disposed to do, bat he says no; that they want o put Haskell in this time first, and , ~hen they will divide in 1892. He also t1 said that every one of them intended o crowd the polls on election day to see that their votes were counted; ~hey do not care whether or not they are jailed or killed, to the polls they wil go, in spite of all opposition, and t de confidently expects Haskell's elec ion. He says the large negro major ties in Berkeley, Beaufort, Orange urg, Georgeto)wn, Richland, and oth r lower counties cannot be overcome y the upper counties. a Is a constitutional and not a local disease, and therefore It cannot be cured by local applications. It requires a constitutional remedy like Hood's Sarsaparilla, which. working through the blood, eradicates the Ia impurity which causes and promotes the disease, and effects a permanent cure.
