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
