There were present a thou sand people, who were entertained in royal style by the good j^-ople of this hospitable town. A negro band of Savannah furnished music during the day. A Ixiuntiful picnic dinner was served at. 1 o’clock, and at") o’clock a game of Imll was played between the (’harlenton “Tigers” and Vamvitle. The festivities were concluded in the evening with a big ball at Dowling’s Hall, easily one of the most brilliant social functions ever given here^ The exercises liegan at 11 o’clock. The Rev K \\ Peeples, the highly resected and honored pastor of the Raptst (’hurch. 1 wa« master of ceremonies and opened the exercises with prayer. The first sj»eaker was D B Peuri- f >y, Rsq.. of Walterboro. Mr. i Peurifoy is a finished and elociuent orator and held the attention of the large audience while he developed his subject, which was “Protrress.” This was a story of the development of the resources of this country. He paid a tribute to the low country. He said he had it on good authority that w hen the earth was being made the Creator sent an angel with a package of the best things in crea-1 tion and told him to take it to the 1 j low-country. The angel stopped in Colleton, though Hampton had been given her part. The hope of this country was in the education of the people, we are too money-grasping, too materialistic. The call of the times is for manhood, men who fearlessly do their duty. The next sj>eaker was Solicitor J F Byrnes, of Aiken. Polities had been tabooed, so Mr Byrnes con- tenteHi himself with making a speech on education. In Hampton County you have more negrf>es in schools than whites, and in South Carolina <j i there are 30,000 more, he said. . The cotton crops, he said, last year brought a fine price, but as a result many mills have shut down. This will lead to the opposition of the mills to good prices for cotton, and it may be that a new party will be organized and the business men may for their preservation vote the edu- cated negro, and with 30,000 more of them qualified under the Consti tution. what will be our condition? I have an abiding faith, saidj the speaker, and it is my only consola tion. as it is yours, that the w^jte race is superior in intelligence. We need better teachel^, and women, who are the natural teach ers. should be paid as much as men. said the speaker. Mr. Byrnes is a fluent speaker and full of appro priate anecdotes. He kept the at tention of the audience during his speech. The Hon C W Garris was then in troduced. Mr Garris was railroad commissioner and is now a represen tative in the legislature from Bam berg County. Mr Garris deprecated the fact that the term “politician” usually carried with it some oppro brium, and said the term carries with it just what the people want it to carry. If the people demand high-toned office-seekers, such men will offer for office; it the people want political tricksters, then such will seek office, he said. We have a grand State; yes, and the task ahead of the youth of this State is s hercu lean one; we have a grand State, but an undeveloped one; we have room for five times our population. The key to this is in education, Mr Garris continued. He it was, the weaker said, who introduced a hill in the General Amenably to appro priate $20,000 ~ for the common schools of the State, and he last year introduced a bill to appropriate $60,- 000, for the common schools should have as much aid as the high schools. Mr. Garris made a good impression. B.S. GUEST, Dentist at uKin it. •.anuui.is.- LOUIS COHEN 232 and 234 King Street and 203 Meeting Street, Charleston, S. C. fu- _ Mid-Summer Clearance Sale .
