The Meet'ng on Last Lriiay--A Large Crowd-"-Speeches by 3ovoral of the County Cancidates. ' - The barbecue and picnic givon at Paul's Spring on Friday, by the Jackson's' Creek Democratic Club wis a most enjojabl? aitair. Many of those present were carried back to the d.tys of '76, whoeniid Jack sJn's Creek Club did such good work. In thlose dtys the organizing of a Democratic club was a diffi:ult and ' somnewhat ungrateful 'task. .People were inuch divided as to the policy to b pursued, and a general lukewarmness prevailed. It was very h1t,rd to get up meetings. The frequent calls in the columns of .THE NEws AN.s iaRALD were uuheeded.by many, unnoticed by some, and even sneered at by;a few. It was in such a condition of general demoralizi tion that the president, Mr. R. E. Ellison, Sr., was appointed by General Biatton' to organize a club in Township No. 12. In ' spite of the difficulties that surrounded him, he succeeded in raising oh? of the best organized and most efficient clubs in the county. Toe first'pub lic meeting of the county campaign of '76 was held on the same spot waure the day was spent so ploasant ly on FriJLy. At tae present time the tliib is in a most flourishing con, dition, and ready to do any service that ma be demanded of it. The crowd gathered on Friday was an unusually largb one, there being present persons from nearly every section of the county. The seats in front of tue speakers' stand were well filled with ladies, while the men were in force on all sides ar'ound. We arrived somewhat too late on the groind and the meeting had begun. MIr. Rt. E. Ellison, Sr., as president of th club, was presiding. General Bratt,n, who had cotno by invit:ttion to olien the b.l, was speaking on our arrival. He dwelt upon tWe fund-luntal princniples of the party, and showed -that behind the lue.il issues loomed up tho great Nation.al contest, which was one of principles and of a preservation of the constitution. The Demo cratic p:t~ ty is ' the - conservator - of the liberties-6f the people, and its tnission is even to save -nisguide.l Republicans from the consequences 'of their madness. He showed that in this State Radicalism is' not dead, 'that-a refnsal-to lidinila'te a State ticket is merely a ruae,-and that a deperato -fight will' -bo made to capture the Legislature, as. - this body is the key to the situation. Both par-ties- are only skirmishing now for position in the great con test of 1.830. fHo counseled vigi lance and determination..- He ex pressed his gratification at the assured fact thati the -party in F"airfield is a unit. He wvas glad to seeO so mny cithdadates in the field. Tiiey should :have the groates~t freedom in offering themselves, and thme people thme gi-eatest -freedom -in 'choosing from them. But, the primary election 'havinig been held, 'the full force of the party will be centr'ed on -one man. '* The Demo crntic p)arty guarantees to all the pple equ.dl rights -under tihe law, and visits'equal punishmeunt on all the guilty. :Unders a "Demno6ratic admmnistration the-hxumnblest citizen can sleep as quietly' in his thatched cottage as the merchant prince in his p)alatia1l residence. The' party therefore calls on all honest people to aid it in its noble mission. [Ap phluse.] Mr-. J. W. Rcbinson was now in troduced, and made ai short speech. Dr. T. B. McKinstry was next intr-oduced. He had not expected to see the b)road hillside covered with beCautiful ladies and intelligent gen tlemenl? Although as a candidate *he was expected to speakc, he had little left to ay. Recalling the memories of 1876, e:the - peaker showed that it would be'suicidal to dr'ift back to -o'nr' past oondition. It is a matter df regret that some luke-wrmd,ess prevails, :and that eomo good men objeet-to joIn the tybecause of the Eighth Article. .?hey must be brotig ht inito. 'the clubs. -All personal feelings tta be subordina.ed t~4~ ood of dlie party,. the ipu al'~ 1%dI. oQliBm is shto would state for the benefit of those' blored people who are dissatisfied' here, that the Azor is to maki regular trips to Liberia. In regard to the usury law, it had done nd good. - The fonce law generally gives satisfaction where it is in o pe'ation. It is purely a township affair, an d if a township wishes it; it can got it, if not it will not have it. The foes of' public officers and of lawyers ought to be reduced in many instancos, as the people are poor. In conclusion he would say that if elected as a representative ho would ondeavor to logislate for tho best interosts of the people. Ho would support the nominees of the party. - I Mr. Thomas S. Brice, one of our representatives, next took the stand. He said . This political issue eX; cites the deepest interest, as' it in volves the honor and the life of the people. One of two results must happen, either that the State shall be rodeeied and entor upon a ca reer of prosperity, or' else it must sink in degrad.ttion.' The Republi. can party has evinced the 'same profi.g icy and venality as before, and its revival would be a calamity. To avert this and to prevout such a stigma from resting upon us are tire grave responsibilities devolving on us as citizens and as Democrats. It is the province of the Democratio pai ty to see -that; the principles of the party are citiried to a full frui tion. The convention of 1878 has re.ffirmed the platfirml of 18 16. and on this line we must fight it; out. Only by a tenacious adherence to these principles can the . issue be crowned - with success. We must not und-orrate' the stLe.gth 'of 't,e opposition, but mnsit uvito solidly against it. All mnait tAk) p.trtin it, and the Fox-h unter of Faii lielul will contribato his sa..ro 1iiis is no timo for side issues nor for the pro.. scription of any in m on account of his avocation. Tie un iiinimity of the State Convention is a harbinger of snccess. Let us follow its exam ')le. - Capt. R. C. Clownoy was called on, but he not being prosent, Cupt. H, A. Gaillard was introduced. He said: It is the practice to trot out candidates beforo the people like trick wules in a circus. It havin-L been my misfortuno to have app' ur ed a good deal before the people latsly, I will say but little, and will merely defend the Legislature against soiho attacks recently appOaring in the papers, in which we are told that we have merely ch:ulged masters and have asked for bread and received a stone. Ho then proceodo I to' re, view the acts of - the Legislature, showing the good that has been acom plished and the blessings that have flowed' from home rule and a Demo: cratic administration. - Col. R. G. Lamar was next intro duced. He announced that he was a candidate for the suffrage of the people. He then told the joke of the small boy who, having been sent out after his brothers to pick up chips, ran in to his mother crying, saying that John and Harry and Tom had picked up all the chips, and all theyhiadn't picked *up thiit feet were so big they had covered them up. Just so he had little to say, as the chips had been p)icked up. He continuel: A candidate is' ex-. pected to express his convictions. 9~ do not shrink from it. The bonded debt rests with the, courts, 'and I shall consider its decision final. BuIt if the question recurs, I will, -if elected, vote against every clainri tainted with fraud. The phosphate beds arc of great importance, as they are said to be valuable enough to pay off the whole debt, and they should riot be controlled or monopo lized by any ring. The Legislature should reduce its own per diem, and then cut down clerks' and sheriffs' costs and lawyers' fees. The color ed -man should be -permit.ed -i to enjoy all his rights, -and yet it. should be fully understood. that the intelligence and' tne we.dlth of Fair field must direct its politics. 'In conclusion he would say that 'if elected he would serve to the best of his ability. If not he would work earnestly for the election of all the nominees. - - - - . . - Maj. T. W. Woodward was next called on. <I:I'announced- that he was no candidate, but he would re' call the incidents of the last cam paign.- Two years ago he had the honor, in this very place and on this platforma of firing the flrst shot -on .the picket -line. .How' ' great the -change since then I.- What. cause*for' congratulations ! -.
