The first public rpw perance of the

"I have passed fhrough Aurora
many times." he sai- as ho pulled

have often wondered why you did
not have a governor of your own
living here and I am glad to see
that you aro ab,.ut. to remedy the

ing through our town." Mr. Al
schuler then intrudr!ed it number of
friends and the traii.n moved out. As
it started there was a cheer for the
next president from I ho crowd.
Mr. Bryan retired at 11 o'clock
last night just after passing Creston,
Ia. At that place the train was met
by a domonstrativo crowd as it vas
also at Rod Oak, but at such places
the nominee declintd to sheak.
When Mr. Bryt.n emerged from
the train in Chicago he looked cool
and fresh, clean and bright, appear
ing wvell prepared for an arduous
dlay. Wearing lig L sunmer clothes,
he was evidently p)rep)ared to go
1through the day with as much comn
ifort as possible for a priosident.ial can
ilidalte entering upon tihe first work
of the campaign.
A committee of citizens which met
the incoming party was headed by

appoaring tas reprei..ntativo of tihe
Germnan-American clubs of the city.
*These, with other lea;ders, were ad
mitted inside the station gates.
Their followers sent up a lusty cheer
ais the national Ioader came into
sight, but notwithstanding the pres
ence of probably a thousand pe~oplo
at the station there was scant cere
mony at thit point. After a few
hoarty handshakes; Mr. Bryan and
this party ,wero escorted to wvait.
ing carriages and driven to lhe Slhor
man house.
.Trhe party found its way through
the throng at the dehpot wvith some
dilliculty, and Sir. Briyan, was fre
quently compelled during the short
wvalk to stop) and shake hauds with
an especially insistent admirer.
Among the clubs at the depot
woero one or'two Goermian-Amoerican
organizations, the Thurman club
- nid the Nebraska Bryan club of
Chicago.
At the Sherman house Mr. Bryan
-was Iinmediately ush eredl into a par.
lor on the ground floor, whoe he was
,soon joinedi by lion. A. F Stevenson.
The candidatos greeted each other

Shortly beforo 1 o'clock tho parado
was formed to escort the Bryan and

which was to eonvoy them11 to India

Maj. William 1. Mauldin, state
senator frei H-fampton, was hero
last night tisiting his mother and
brother, Mr. -. F. Mauldin, says the
Anderson Mail. lio left for Spartan
burg on bnsiness this morning.
Senator Mauldin was approached for
an interview. Hie alvays has at good
word for Anderson, his native count y.
As Ie bad only a few moments in
which to take the train it was im
possible for tho major to 'talk long.
Bes.des ho is a thorough going busi
noss man and does not court notoriety.
Only time cnough was at his disposal
when the reporter ran upon him for
him to say in referenco to politioc
that Hampton county was for Gov.
McSwconey's re- qection; that he had
made a good executive and his ser
vices were being more and more ap
preciatod all over the state. Ho
thought the attacks of certain oppo
nents on the governor were d6ing
him more good than harm.
"A good deal," said the sonator
"is heard about Charleston's vote il
the govornatorial race. I am satis
fled that the (iisinterestod vote of tho
business men of Charlatcrn will be
cast for Governor McSweeney. I
don't know who the politicians dowvn
there wvill support."
"1How about Richland, Senator ? "
"I can say the samo thing of Rich
land that I say of Charleston. Mc
Sweeney has given the state a sensi
ble, conservative, b)usmoess-like ad
ministration and no people of the
state are better s:tisfied that this is
true than thot e who live at and noar
the capitol. Columbia will stand by
the governor."
"HaIve you boon in other counties
of late so as to form an opinion as to
hiow they will go ?" "Yes, I was at
Abbeville thL other day where I sold1
$15,000 wvorth of building material
and was assured by many well-.posted
people that u bile that county might
go for its home candidate, Mr. Gary,
thore were good reasons to believe
that McSwooniey's chancos were ex
cellent even in old Abbovillo." The
senator spoke of personal esteem for
Colonel Hoyt. lie thinks the race
lies between M\lcSweeonoy and Hoyt.
Pss Jll Deibts.
One of the leading business mon
of Columbia remarked the other day
that Gov. McSwveenoy should be
elected as he was a No. 1 man and
one Governor wvho paid his debts.

It, is held, first, that a eharter is
not a certifica11to in tho Imleaninl'g of
the act of Coigress.
Second, th requiroment to stamp
charters is taxation on tho State, h
causo charters are not oxocitt-d by
COrpolationls andA aro not writtenl orI
signed by them; bitt they aro issted
by tho Secretary or Stato in his olli
cial capacity.
Third, to talx the Stato uidervi telh
circmsitalcos is wvrolg, in that in
the issuing of charters the Secrottry
is porfurming an oflicial function of
govornmont.
It is requested that if tho paprs

foro the departmont coieos to a fiial

Under tho law of tho 'Uito, the
corporation cannot vftix the stamp
for it has nothing to do with tie
issuing of a eharter. Under th l1aw,
the Secretary of Stto cannoLt plac

It is believed that tho S.1cretary o!

If Gary and Patterson would ro
lieve the State of further disgrace,
they would now stop down and out.
The votes recorded for mon who do
not know onough to behave them

that is expected of a chiof exOcutive,

indulged in a fight at Laur'ons last
Saturday. There were a number of

and some of them camo near fainting
