Political Rings*
Our County Chairman will doubt
less take f.U-pB to call a convention
of the people at an early day for llie
purpose of electing deleg'ates to at
tend the State Democratic 1 ineeting
in Columbia to be held oif Tuesday
1st June proximo. These cohven
tions ate absolutely necessary for two
potent reasons : All the people can
not meet together to lay out plans
and determine the line of conduct the
party mnst phrstieif such h meeting
were1 possible it would be ' too un
wieldy for'a fair di.HL'(iss>l?n', in so
short a time, of the topics brought
before'it and would necessarily be un
satisfactory in its deliberations and
results'. Tbc; business of "the entire
people must be cntrnstoiHo a'few
chosen representatives who meet, dis
cuss at length! und determine upon
such a poHcy as may 'be Ihought^ice
essnry for the successful conduct, of
the campaign. The greater the ratio
of llic representation the more com
pletely will the sentiment of .the pconlc
bo represented and the less powerful
will bo the influence of rings or
cliques. The converse ol Ibis is
equally true wilii a small ratio of rep
resentation. At the beginning, there
fore, of'ihc campaign lot every Demo
crat enroll his name upon the list or
his Township club, that the represen
tation in the County Convention may
be full and complete. There are
many jjood and true citizens who
think their attendance at a club meet
ing is a small matter and by their ab
sence sacrifice the public, good to
tlictr private interest. There are oth
ers who think too lightly of 'their own
Influence and, because ,'lncy cannot
speak, are content to remain at home.
Slill another class will not join or at
tend because they cannot boss the
machine, and by stich a course of con
duct aclua|lyt-oppose the'party with
which thoy consider themselves iden
tified. From ntuoug Lheso classes
come all the complaint^ about bad
maijagoipcnt, ring lulc, C'ou't House
cliques and political trickery, Parly
division ami independent movements
find their source and support rigid
here, ami often defeat may bo attrib
uted to the lukowariuncss of those
who.iefu.se to lake part in.club meet
ings. ...,lt is often the case that a doz
en citizens moot at the .appointed
timev read, the call of the County
Chairman upi) tbeu inquire. au)op\?
themselves, who will.attend Urn Conn
ty Convention. Men are appointed
because they have lmsiuess' in town
and it is convenient, Such delegates
spend tnoro tiinc on the streets at
tending to private, business v than in
the convention room, leaving the af
fairs of Lhfiir- constituents to be at
tended to by UrfnW who take un inter
est in such things. ?lhors Sit around,
listen and some-limes vole, but never
ut.ter a word in behalf of their sec
tion's interest'; and thus:a few wire
pullers manage,the convention while
the majority are silent. Who is to
blame? Can wo complain of rings or
cliques, or trickery under such cir
cumstances? Ceilaihly not. Now
let the club meetings be wcU'ntlcnd
ed, send tho host men. the best organ
izers?men who will do their duty,
as delegates and instruct then) tis to
the will of the club. In this way wo
wjll have a convention of good men
and the. people's interest will bo nt
tepded to. No complaints of cliques
or court house riiigs will bo heard
whop out* best men are seht as dele-:
gates to the convention. Clique |n
Ihieiico innst be ' prevented and this,
it seem9 to us, Is the way to do it.
The party has fcuirercd much from
this evil and wo hope our next con
vention will bo an improvement oil
(.he old methods,
Causes for Alarm.
Wo do pot mean to be sensational
by the beading of this editorial.
There is certainly abundant cause of
alur?i to.ibo country when wo look in
the face of existing facts. It is not
simply to the third term movement
or the manifest design of the stal
warts to secure at the next election i
ftltft tJic>;^^)lo>|dd)tbfcall 4 Strong'
government, that we are to look for!
causes of alarm. These are doubtless'
s-.dllcc'nt'mlt'gi'aV-cr' rensolm cxMst and
nearer homo! T*hat the Radicals' are
:drgariiy.hVg and that' tlie'colorfed vote
tviH^he s?li'd for that prtrty, tbeYb is
!ii?t a tlobbV: 'It1 ls: equally true?t'hal
many'^r^Our. owrr" j)ehiocrntib cillHe'hs
arclukdwn'rm And indifferent hhd;lex
lilbitin?j a carelessness as to the im
portance ?T the issues before Ihdm,
that is a cause for alarm to every orte
who loves and' reveres otir sysfcurbf
a free government. If there was one
feature, more than aridthcr, upon
which tlic permanency of this govern-'
mcnt depended;'1 it wns'lhe independ
ence of the judiciary, but when a
State judge eaiY. be arraigned and1
made to answer for a violation of
Stale election laws, that ihdepend
ence is lost 'and the foundation of
Slate rights sapped.1 ? The purity tf|
flic Supremo Court was the boast
and prihV 61' the American phoplc;:
but Avben bei' jnilges depart from an
interpretation of the Constitution, ob
taining1 for a hundred years,' for expe
diency, to moot the will of a party,
that pulity is lost and the court is no'
lo'njier a safeguard of the liberties of
the people. The provisions of the
Constitution constitute the strength
of the government; but when those
provisions nre annulled by a simple
decree Of u packed court, that
strength' is gone, and there is no se
curity! left against the worse kind of
centralism. The President is the
9'woin guardian of the laws and the 1
liberty they are intended to protect;:
but when the President perjures him
self and adis'inieteVs the laws in the
interest of a party, that guardianship
is destroyed.uju1( there is no limit to
the ruin of llie government a mere
party may niake. These arc' facts
"that haVd transpired recenlly under
the eyes of our people, and are causes
of alarm that should not be unheeded.
'For ?'.hesc high-unti'dcd measures to
bo continued,' and for the ollicets of
the government to be the instruments
of their prosecution, the complete over
throw of the republic is only a matter
of time._ To avert it requires'the ma
jority vole of the people to be cast in
favor oT the principles of the Demo
cratic party at the next election.
Campaign Money,
The long lease of power allowed
the Republican party in the past was
duo-more to iheir:outrageous'system
of raising campaign funds than to
their, actual numerical stronglh or the
popularity of their peculiar political
views. At the opening of every cam
paign aniassessment was made.upon
each ollicor holding a government ap
pointment which furnished the party
leaders with hundreds of thousands
of dollars with which to run llie Re
publican tnachine. The larger share
ofihis fund was employed in bribing
Voters cither directly or indirectly,
in corrupting the election and in
working tip the count in the dtfrc'rc'iV?.
sebti?'ns of the country to suit their j
purposes, No oOloef dared to refuse
the 'payment of 'bra assessment On
pain of his decapitation and the mor
tification of seeing : another ?'cp into
his shoos.- This corrupt 'practice was
kiibwn to the government an 1 counte
nanced by jts ofllclals from the Pi'csl
'debt to thn ' lowest political menial,
without a single effort ever having
been made to stop it. Under stieb a
Oor opt 'system it was impossible to
secure justice'Where Republicans con
troflrid tbo elections'.1 If ah appeal
was lauen from the tnanagers to the
'Ctinrts, the judges, equally corrupt,
would :?us lain the count; it carried to
Congress, the same poll dual rotten
ness would not blush at confirming so
trilling a matter; and if tno Presi
dent's ear was rcuebud, a certain ap
proval would stamp that ollicor as
wanting in political purity as the vil
est of bis party.
To protect the people from this
sljamelcss system, the Democrats
have introduced and are now press
ing 1.0 ils linnl "passage through Cou
grcss, a hii| to prevent a repetition of
these assessments. This measure is
meeting the strongest opposition from
the Republican side. They know that
its success means the party's ruin,
that Uie oply means they have of so
curijig the .next Presidential election
Iji their favor will bo lost, and that
such an event will bo the death of
tbpir party in this country. There IS
no tbcasuro of equal importance-With
this to the Democratic narty, and we
hope ?hat every man will bo found
giving it his vole op its Jjnnl passage.

Concealed Weapons.
Tlio almost universal practice of
this barbarous custom throughout the
State, has been the subject of very
severe but just criticisms from the
courts and press of the Stale. Why
life' late Legislature, knowing its
prevalence, neglected to enact a law
for its prevention, has not been satis
fael<>rily explained, find.is, UioircTQie,
unsparingly censured for not meeting
tin; demand. . There can be no neces
sity'for such a custom id times of
profbu'dd peace. During the exis
tence of war, or in a country of
prowling savages, or a coast frequent-1
cd by n lawless banditti there may bo
sonic reason for carrying weapons for
self defense, but in a land inhabited
by a Christian people,where law is the
recognized rule of action and courts
hold inch responsible for their acts,
liiere can1 be no excuse for carrying a
weapon and surely' not for cononnlnd
weapons. \Vc have seen in the town
of Orangcburg men, women and chil
dren with pistols concealed about
Ih'cTr poisons as if they expected to
liieet some desperate character
I against whom it was necessary to de
fend themselves. This evil and gam
bling arc twin sisters and they uro
"both cowardly alike, seeking conccal
riiont from the public eye and intonib
efl for'victims the)' would not dare to
meet in open combat. Public neces
sity in the absence of law, should
take the'matter ill hand and enforce
a respect for public opinion and secu
rity for life, morals and property.
No community is safe against the vi
iciousnessof the gambler?no life is
safe against the thrust of the coward
ly assassin.
"Yankee Adventurers."
The Lancaster Lr(h/rr,'u\ comment
ing upon the action of the late Legis
lature in turning over the Columbia
c'annl to two Northern men, w ho were
to utilize its magnificent water power
by building factories along its banks,
denounces these men as "Yankee ad
venturers," and says a great many
other hard things about them. Now,
Thompson cc Naglo may be "adven
turers" with no other capital to back
lhellt than an over abundance ofcheck,
blit why say "Yankee adventurers."
There arc thousands of good and true
men in tho Nor h, and there arc a
great many "adventurers" in the
South. So it will not do to put a
mnn down as an "adventurer" simply !
because he was born on the other side
of "Mason"fH^d Dixon's Line." Wha".
the fctouth neVds to day more than*
anything else to make her rich and
powerful is the development of her
latent resources. It makes no differ
ence to us by whom they are develop
ed, as we in common witli every citi
zen of the Slate will be benefited by
the general prosperity that would be
sure to follow. Let us open our gates
wide and invite Northern capitalists
to come among us and help us to
buildup our waste places, lint when
they come don't call them "Yankee
ad venture).s," or oilier hard names,
if they aru men good and true let us
give them a hearty welcome, and let
them sec tbU when yc invite, them

Deputy Marshals.
Since the Supromo Court declared
the law requiring tho appointment of
ihese .officers constitutional, an effort
is being made in .Congress to so mod
ify tho law a* to. place the appointing
power, iu .the hands of United Slates
Circuit Judges instead of United
Stales Marshals, and to give one!
half the appointments to each politi-1
t^d party. It is said Mr. Hayes is
not opposed to auuh a.modification of >
tho law and will not interpose his j
v'-lo to prevent its passage. Hereto-'
fore these officials were partisans and
were placed at Democratic prcciuots
to work in the interest of the Radical
parlyi and for this reason were espe
cially obnoxious to Democrats. The
new law js intended to remedy this
evil.
The Southern Senator Scandal.
It was announced some timo ago
that a scandal was brewing in the
filthy cauldron of Washington socie
ty concerning a Southern Senator and i
a treasury girl, It has turned out to
bo a woman by tho name of Jessie
Raymond who is annoying Senator
Hill of Georgia, She attempted at
first to blackmail him. and then she
commenced a suit in tho Courts!
through her female attorney, Belva!
Lockwood, and n?w sho insists on i
standing about Mill's committee room
and in front of Ids rcsidenpo with her
chtlil ih her arms, apparently trying to
create sympathy in her behalf. Sen
ator Hill's friends believo him inno
cent of the charges. Jt is considered
a trick of some of his political ene
mies. Congressmen should be as
"Chaslo ns unsunnod snow" in order
to resist all the temptations of thai
artificial life that prevails n,bout ihjp
Capitol.
Mayor of Columbia.
The Democrats of Columbia have"

work can accomplish that result.
Captain O'Ncalc is a native of Colum
bia, and is now engaged in the com

soldier during the late war, doing his
full measure of duty to the State
through the whole peliod, and is in
every way worthy of the confidence
