It furnishes mighty interest! n g reading, aud in connection with the Democratic platform, leaves no excuse for any Americau voter to east other than a Demo cratic ballot in the November eleotion. The entire oontents of the patqphlet is practically compiled from the Congressional Record, an 3 furnishes a series of chap ters which should cause eucli aud ull of us to shudder at the pros pect of results that must follow a continuance of Republican rule, This remark is made for the beuctit of not ouly the Demo cratic voters of South Carolina, but for those who have hereto fore persistently voted the Re. publican ticket. We of the South and of every section who hold- country and home dourer thun party, have come absolutely to the parting of the ways. In tins oocning election, we must prove ourselves either citizens, lovers of home and oountry, or, blind partisans, druukon and be sotted with party fooling. There is no question in our mind, party fooling aside, that the several ohapters devoled to "Republ ican Extravu g a n c e, " Financial and Industrial Con ditions, the Tariff and Trust, "Federal Usurpation on the Rights of States", "The Cur rency", "present aud Prospoc live Conditions under Republi can Rule" and the I*abor Ques tion, furnishes gravest matter for thought. The Hand Roolc is offered for sale at Twenty live oonts by the Democratic Committee, and oan be obtained from Jus, J. Lloyd, M, C., Washington, D. C., or, Hon. D, E. Finloy, Yorkville, S. C, A careful perusal of it will well repay ovory thoughtful votor, aud lovor of his oountry. It will also interest tho women folk of tho nation. Either send for it diroot, or, place your or der for it with us. Knowledge is power, and if you have not the knowledge that is oontained in this Democratic Hand Boole, you cannot bo expected to pass sensibly upon the several grave issuos that coufront the Ameri* can people, Notice to Farmers Union.
