Evans to “rise and stan<( until they were counted,” whereupon the tellers announced that he had received 61 votes, a major ity of those present. A number of persons in the hall who also made the count insist that vote was really 03, which cumstance, coupled with fact that the chairman by a slip of the tongue announced it as 81 instead of 01,- led to considera ble confusion. The chair there upon took another vote, the re sult of which showed a decided falling off in Col. Evans’ strength, the only solution of the rapid change in sentiment being that some of tins more “weak-kneed” of the Tillman- ites returned to the allegiance which they fondly imagined was due their caucus. A ballot was then taken by calling the roll and allowing each delegate to answer to his name, which confirmed the result of the sec ond rising vote. Quite a number of thoughtful men, even some of those who voted against Col. Evans, give it as their opinion that, in view of the circumstances above men tioned, he is the regular nomi nee of the party. At all events DANGER AHEAD. It would seem as if Capt.

Office of The Darlington News. Darlington, S. C., \ August 28, 1890. J Mr. H. C. Burn, Society Hill, S.

If the report which has reached will you please name the — _ instances, and give in detail all is the Accusation just ? the circumstances connected Editor Darlington News: "'hB them, from which you drew I notice in the proceedings of >' our conclusions?

The News has always been, and ever will be, open to the people of the county for an expression of their views, however much those views may happen to dif fer from our own. To such an extent have we carried this in dulgence, that we have been commended for it by some of the most extreme Tillmanites in the county, while the leading Tillman organ in the State has even taken it as a basis for the accusation that we were “on the fence.” Tomy mind it comes with peculiarly had grace from you to take the position that you do, in view of the fact that the communication to which you refer is the only one of yours which was ever rejected by this paper ; on account of the business relations existing be tween us, I have repeatedly pub lished your articles at the cost of omitting from the paper items of much greater interest to those who have paid us to supply them , Those from 8 to 10 years old, Monday, perhaps September ISJ inform you Those over 10 years old, Tuesday, 1 September 18.
