A. Rhodes, of Darlington, came up from Jordanville yesterday on a visit to Mrs. Dr. Norton. Those young ladies have been spending several days on tho seashore and they possess a great deal of that kind of vivacity that usually characterizes a Weach party. There will he a new paper issuod from the IIkkald office in about three weeks. It will be a denominational paper, published in tho interest of the Paptist denomination. It will be a 4 page, 12 column paper, devoted exclusively to the upbuilding of Christianity. It will he edited and published weekly by J. T. Mayors, for GO cents a year or three months for 20 cents. Persons can scad in their subscription now find i begin with the first number. Mr. T. J. Vaught candidate for Commissioner on the Tillman t icket made a speecli at Hammond in which ho referred to a I'eao and Harmony meeting of the (Conservatives at Grahamville fi few days before to which lie sa d Tillmanites were invited, and, when they desired to reply to some of the strictures on the Tillmanites by the Conservatives, wore denied that privilege. 1 hero were three or four speeches made by conservatives, one of which is said to have been pretty bitter. At the con^nisi on of these speeches, some one moved to hear from bro. Dor man, objection was made, when tho President of the club proposed ihat the meeting hear from Mr. Vaught as he whs a candidate, and lie declined on the ground that he was not prepared, lie did make a few remarks criticizing some of the former speeches, when it was shown that he misunderstood the allusion of the former speaker. Mr. Vaught evidently belongs to the "peas and hominy" crowd and does not exactly understand 4<peace and harmony.' ho: IJ rent ado 1ms been made in gome ' quarters abo.it tin? heading <>f the Conservative club rolls. The Tilliuuuit.es have three columns, one headed "Tillman** one "Sheppard'' nr.d one ''Doubtful,'' and solicit sig natures under each heading. Now, what is this but an implied agreement of the strongest kind. Suppose a man was to sign in the Tillman column and then vote for Sheppard, would they not say ho was false and had deceived them? What the Conservatives seek to accomplish openly, fairly and squarely, the Tillmanites arc trvinc to do in n differ ?/ o ** v* ent, nebulous way. We have been informod that the Pxecutivo Committee rules that each Precinct is a club, then the question is pertinent, how are the voters to be enrolled? Will the Precinct chairman appoint a day for the enrollment, or will each voter have to hunt him up to see that his name is enrolled? There are only few days in which this matter can be attended to. To facilitate the prompt voting the managers should bo able to tind each name quickly, and to do this it is important that each name be entered in alphabetic order. To secure this end most expeditiously and satisfactorily, would it not be wall for tho Precinct chairman to appoint a day and lnivo ouch name entered in proper order from the various club rolls as now made up? Senator trby has writton a letter to .). Wm. Stokes, candidate for Congress from the 1st District, condemning the Charleston County Kxecutive Committee's assessment 011 the different candidates to defray the expenses of the primary election. Ii'by says the assessment is excessive and precludes the possibility of a poor man's offering for ollicial position. This may be so, but those expenses must he met and whore is the money to come from, if not from those who hope to he tho beneficiaries of tho election. There is such indecent scramble for ollice that those who have hebn liberal contributors to these expenses are disgusted and are now willing to contribute little or nothing. If tho candidates refuse to pay, then the legislature will have tocoine to tho rescue and conduct the primaries as a general election and pay the expenses from the state treasury* This will put every body on an equality before the ollice. The Columbia Register's boasted statement that its large circulation j is confined to bonaddc subscribers will hardly stand the test of a critical examination* A circumstance occurred here a few days ago which shows how the circulation figures are made up. A gentleman from I'ireway, N. C. was stopping in the country not far from Conway and when the time for his return came he w as-handed a bundle of papers for gratuitous distribution along his route. On arriving in Conway some question as to the kind of papers was raised and on investigation proved about half dozen copies of the Columbia Begistcr. The man declared himself a Cleveland Democrat, and when asked whore ho got the bundle, said, a vouug man (calling his name) gave it to him for the purpose above indicated. This is one instance of free distribution f how many more in this county we cannot say. The Columbia Regis tor refused or failed to publish Senator Evan's letter condemning Mel.aurin for treachery and duplicity and then had the impudence to publish a so-called vindication of Mcl.aurin by one of his friends under the head lines a "Slander refuted.'' The Register also treated the Senator with resorting to a "Ring organ'; to ventilate his "imaginary grievances.." ruo senator 111 a letter which we publish this week reiterates the! charges against Mcl.aurin and challenges him to the proof. McEaurin's con tin noil silence re j specting the charges is very significant and is not the attitude of an innocent man. The News and Courier very properly says. <k\Ve have received several requests from Mr. McL&urin and the friends who doubtk">8 helped him to engin eer his endorsement through the Alliance Conference at Florence, to publish cards, resolutions, etc, in McLaurin's defence, but have not published them for the reason that Mr. Evan's letter to The News and Courier required a personal answer. It was not what Mr. Willoughby, or, Mr. Mclntyrc, or Meesrs Appelt, Johnson, Davis, Hradham and T indal of the Clarendon delegation, said about Mr. McLanrin and his course that the public wished to hear, but it was what Mr. McT.anrin himself had to say upon the subject. In his LU1Y HERALD lirst letter Mr. Evans said: "I feel I like 1 have been grossly deceived "and imposed upon by Mr. McTjau lin.'' lie did not way that he felt as if Willoughby and Mclntyro and the rest of Mr. M?Laurin,s political sponsors had deceived him and imposed upon him, but that Mr. McLaurin himself had trampled upon his friendship and violated his promises and played the role of a traitor in the guise of a friend. Mr. Evans repeats his damaging charges to day and says: "Now let Mr. Mcl.aurin "say whether 1 have slandered him "or not, and I will publish what "passed between us, and let the pub"lic bo the judge." Mr. McLaurin has the lloor, and we shall be verv much surprised, to use a Western phrase, if Mr. Evans does not wipe it ui) with him." K'LCKTKKA AN AN KDITOK, Mr. llviuis Replies to tlic Columbia lto);istcr, and Suggests flint Mr. MeCnuriu Sup |)1'(>hno?1 liis(Mr. lOvans's Card. To the Editor of The N. ws and Courier: Tho Register in commenting upon inj communication in your paper of the 8th inst., in which I accuse .1. I/. McLnuriu of had faith and double dealings with me, (and which charge I take this opportunity to repeat,) accuses mo of going into a "King organ" to nir my "imaginary grievances" and playing into the hands of the enemies of tho people, when I sent the same communication through the same mail to tho Register and it was not published. Now 1 wonhl like to ask my many friends throughout the State if this is fair play? And then again, tho editor of the Register headlines a communication in defence of McEaurin, from one of his mends; "Maimer neiuieu. a>ow iei Mr. MeLawrin say whether 1 liuve slandered him or not, and I will publish what passed between us, and let the public be the judge. The only way that 1 can account for the conduct ><f the Register is that Mr. McLaurin has had so much to do with the editorial matter of that paper of late that this article of mine did not suit his fastidious taste, and was therefore surpressed. If Mr. McLaurin is not guilty of the charges which 1 prefer against him, why is it that he told me at Florence on the 1st lust, that the reason that he did not speak to mo at the State Alliance meeting was that he was ashamed to face me? Why is it that the editor of the Register ex pros sed to me the deepest regrets for the part that lie had in booming MeLaurim and tell me that he was persuaded into it? W. l>. Evans. Rennettaville.
