J. Muldrow, who, si we understand is the only candi- b; -date that comes square out and tl strikes an unpopular chord. We tl are told that Mr. Muldrow is op- s( posed to the dispensary, and h favors immigration in a restrict ed form. The others, Jones Gal- w luchat, Woods, Lesesne, Green, cl Bradham and DesChamps are h flat-footed for the dispensary p: and opposed to immigration. At ui the New Town meeting, Dr. c( Woods opened the discussion, ir and as he informs us,* the posi- w tion taken by him was also fr taken by the rest of the legisla- D tive candidates with the excep- h< tion of Muldrow. Woods de- g< clared unequivocally in favor of fE the dispensary, and Bradham B not only declared for the dis- ti *pensary, but a ga i nst the p "-Brice Bill," notwithstanding all fi of his former declarations of re- b; ligious principle with regard to hi prohibition. DesChiamps, Les- a esne, Galluchat, Jones and r. Green, all rallied under the n same 'banner, and swore alli gience to the dispensary and B against immigration. On .the (G question of schools, pensions, se roads and taxes, etc., one speech h would have sufficed for all,- as all S of them were pretty much the h same. The candidates for the county v offices made little speeches an- a nouncing their candidacy. Mes- n srs. Timmons and Windham can didates for clerk of court had a y little "spat," which did not ii amount to anything serious. Windham claimed that .Timmons n promised not to make the race for clerk, Timmons disputed it, and it finally resulted, that Tim- 2 mons at one time made some ~ jocular remark about running for some other office. Mason y unrolled some doggeral which ~ created laughter. The condi- r dates for sheriff got along very N nicely, every fellow wanted the ~ office and promised to do his e duty to the best of his ability. ~ The same with the candidates for supervisor. We are told that the candidates for superinten dent of education made splendid speeches, especially the speech E of Mr. Earle Bradham; it is said to have been very fine, but that h Holladay also did himself proud, a and Thompson and Davis too. d The candidates for auditor made their announcments, and " the army of coroners were given e an ovation. Mr. Pack was re- b ceived with a great demonstra- b tion, and all through his speech ~ he was cheered. a The people of Salem must c have treated the candidates well, because all came back bragging on the reception they received, a and the prospect of being "solid t in Salem." The vote in the Salem section does not belong to anybody; the voters there, are independent s and will vote as they please, and .J the dandidate who receives the 3 vote of that section has a right C to feel proud, because they are a y people who do not let a glibv talker fool them into voting against their, wishes, and when the returns come in, we will wait and see how much reliance has j been placed in the very recent conversion of any candidate to the dispensary, and whether or not the prohibitionists approvec of any compromise of their cause. It has only been a short time ago that one of the candidates now favoring the dispensary. and does so with so mucli fervor that he is m'ore ardent thant an original dispensaryite, was up to, and before he became a candidate for office, a Prohi-t bitionist from religious principle,e is a member of the white ribbon society, made speeches, wrote newspaper articles, and was so devoted to the cause, and to thist religious principle, that in the last election which nominated B. R. Tillman for the United States Senate, he scratched< Tillman's name from the ticket. The candidate we refer to is Capt D. J. Bradham, then a Pro hibitionist from religious princi pie now acepnting the dispen try, and takes the position that le people have decided in favor T E the dispensary makes him ac pt it too. The-people decided i favor of the dispensary be- 0 V >re Capt. Bradham was a can date declaring for prohibition fi 3 a religious principle, and the t] eople decided in favor of the dis- C nsary before Captain Brad- t am scratched Tillman's name i -om the ticket. There are s! Lany voters who would like a N atter reason for a change of n Aligious principle, than candi- f< icy for office, and there are t any who do not understand t aptain Bradham's change, be- V wuse they cannot understand D ow a man wearing the white u .bbon pledge of death to liquor t L any form, and sworn to kill it a every opportunity, can com- a romise his obligation or com- s romise a religious principle at ay time. People have died at I ie stake -for their religious f( rinciples. Last Monday everything pull I out for Paxville, from there d iey go to Pinewood, on to Sam- i ierton and Thursday here. t] The Paxville meeting last 0 [onday was well attended, many a aing attracted by the dinner a irnished by the ladies for the t] mnefit of the churchesand natu-, t! dly more serious attention was C tven to the eatables than to the n >eeches which were very much P e same at Paxville as in Salem, 1 but one of the legislative can dates will support the dispen ry, Mr. Muldrow not being in c vor of it. Mr. Muldrow also F ifers on the immigration ques 3 on. He favors restricted im- F p-A igration, the others are op- F )sed. Captain Bradham on the P F luor question was in favor of tting the dispensary alone N nce the people have decided their votes that they wanted c Le dispensary. If he went to s te legislature he would repre- s P nt the people's views and not F F s own. Mr. Galluchat sprung some- G hat of a sensation by making a iarge against Captain Brad im to the effect that Bradham h retended to be his friend, and C der promise not to form any )mbination did according to p formation furnished him. e hile in Salem advised his 0 iends to vote for Bradham, esChamps and Lesesne. This i a regarded unfair and alto ther at variance with his pro ssions of friendship to him. e characterized it "ring tac Cs" and a scheme to defeat the ople. The ~charge of bad eith was considerably discussed y the people, some blamed Gal ichat for making the exposure hile others contended he was .ght to expose -any two-faced- ~ We are also told that Captain radham when asked abo't -alluchat's charge against him, id it was untrue and that he ad not advised his friends in alem to vote for anybody but e imself. The other candidates get along ery smoothly, each one was tentively listened to, and all iade good impressions. t Pinewood had a good meeting esterday, very little difference o the speeches.. The candidates are at Sum- i terton today. There s more Catarrh in this section of the untry than all other diseases put tether, id until the last few years was suppsdto be . curable.

Now, the office of Judge of Proba1 ad the office of Clerk of Court do n< ad never will become vacant at tt ime time unless the Constitution aanged. So, to run for Clerk of Cou would have to resign, or fill out m !rm of office and wait two years bo >re I could run, or to run as I a, ithout doing either.

A short statement of the work k of the Commission during the, ' term just served by Mr. Garris may be of interest to the people, as well as of interest to the can >f didacy of Mr. Garris himself in the approaching primary. Mr. Garris takes the position that 3 the railroads and the people are , bound to exist together for all d time to come, and that they n should live in friendship, if pos e sible. It is not right that hon- T Y est claims of either against the other should have to be sued for ' and collected at great expense e to both; therefore, the Commis Ls sion can do no higher duty than I to.bring, if possible, the people and the railroads closer togeth e er. Reasonable rates only should Is be allowed by the Commission or desired by the railroads. The average of South Carolina rates n are now below the average of the -t rates throughout the South, and especial care has been given by " the Commission to the agricultu- c a ral and manufacturing interests s .e of the State. Only recently has all cotton manufactures been re duced materially. it is not ex cessive to estimate that the Com x> mission's reductions on cotton 0 piece goods has resulted in a saving to the mill interests of f the State of something like..... ........... $ 53.000 Fertilizer saving by reduction to agricul ture..................................... 90.000 C Reduction In transportation of cotton... 106.000 Reduction in wood for fuel........... a000 LI. Reductions in brick. starch. lime. build Do in.- material ....................... 40.0001 D Reductions on articles of merchandisc 00 and others it is fair to estimate........ 120.000 50 Total.....................................544,000 B Now. this is a conservative es w timate of the amount of money 0 collected by the railroads less D than they would have collected 0o on the commerce of the State for B last year had it not been for the 5 interference of the Commission. B0 The Commission has diligently D under difficulties kept up the D gradual improvement of depots 20 in the State, so that we have more new and modern struc o tures in South Carolina than in 1- any State in the South. Sincel s his term began there are on the d Southern railroad twelve addi )f tional trains doing passenger service and five on the Atlantic e Coast Line. While conditions l can never be entirely satisfac a- tory to all the people, is it not Lt fair to Mr. Garris to say that he has done very well since he feels that he has made no demands exceit those that are justified? During the past year there have been some serious accidents* which have resulted in the loss of life, yet it is a fact there has been hauled in this State about 8,500,000 passengers and not a single white passenger killed. ' Now, if Mr. Garris, who is our commissioner with only one 3term of service, could in justice and reason begin without exper cience and do this muoh for his cpeople, ought he not to be re .tained as a matter of business, sand that too in the interest of allC ,classes, especially the agricul "tural classes? Mr. Garris' life has been a 'e struggle for making of himself, and his strong, intelligent, con ir sistent work for the people we believe will be rewarded by his i fellow-citizens.t SIGNED BY MANY FRIENDS. ie ------ " --- Anothier Opportunity.1 le Another examination for the scholar eship in the normal department at the] South Carolina College will be held in] of the court house, Manning, Friday, Au-' gust 26.
