Apart from the fueling which mast gladden the heart of every trae demo crat as he read s the aocoont of the joy fal occasion, which we publish in an other column, is the gratifying thought that, no selfish potiucaT purposes incited thistremendocs oration and the coming togefoer of so many distinguished men. It was tendered to one long past bis three-score years and ten, and who describes himself as descending the hill of life and very near its foot; Who says in aU sincerity that he is not and never will be a candidate for aoy It,was a disinterested tribute cf affec tion- to a man of tbe highest worth in intellect and morale ; to one who will ever be inseparably linked with the honor of the American name and the greatness and glory of his country. And it was not alone from men of his own political persuasion that these greetings came, bat from many between whom and. himself there exists the widest differences of political opinion. The grand occasion to which we have referred was national in its character. It was a celebration of the stupendous victory which had been achieved in vin dication of democratic principles, and that1 great exemplar of the highest American citizenship and true manhood, Grover Cleveland. . We regard bioo, to-day, as the greatest figure in Amer ican pohtics, aad the coming man of all others to lead on his party to victory in *92. In his able message to Congress three years ago, he urge5 the. question of the tariff as the principal issue, and this, forced opon the people at that time, just before the presidential elections, it is believed caused his defeat. Congressman Springer, in his inter view with the New York World, of the 15th, say s r "The McKinley bill was the opposite policy. Its passage served to empha size the position which Mr. Cleveland bad taken, and demonstrated the con clusions he had reached. The imme diate object in passing the McKinley Bill, as declared by its friends, was to secare greater protection to American mannfaclurers. They could only have greater protection by charging higher prices for their prod nets ; when the bill took effect and the object for which it was created was accomplished, the promo ters and advocates of the messore af fected to be greatly surprised that their declared end bad been attained?name ly, the increase of tbe prices of all man ufactured products, affected by it. * These facts famished tbe crowning feature of the campaign and conclusive ly demonstrated what the Democrats had been asserting?namely, that the tariff was a tax and that it would in crease tbe coat of living as to all arti cles opoo which it operated. The un preceden ted success which was achieved by tbe D?mocratie party at the recent elections and tbe overwhelming defeat of* the McKinley bill were regarded as the triumph of Mr. Cleveland's policy, and since the election the demand for his re-nomination has been intensified, so far as my knowledge ex te ^ is, in the Northwest. I do not pretend to speak for other sections of the country. "So grec-- indeed, is the determina tion of the people to re-nominate Gro ver Cleveland that enough States to nominate him will, in my judgment, be instructed for him before any State Convention i9 held in the State of New York for the appointment of delegate? to tbe National Convention. ' It therefore will make no difference what attitude New York shall assume. He will be nominated before New York speaks, by instructions which will be deemed * inviolable. Those who now deprecate this result may as well pre pare to accept the inevitable. "I have a great admiration for Governor Hill, and believe that his heat friends will advise him to acc pt the United States Senator* bip, which is within his Teach, and oide his time for future Honors in a higher sphere. He is stilt young and will grow in popularity with increasing years. But if his indiscreet friends should uufor tanatefy precipitate a contest between him and Mr. Cleveland's friends in the State of New York there can be but one result, and that will be Governor Hili's defeat. Mr. Cleveland is not only popular with the Democratic masses but is in high favor with thoughtful and conserv ative republicans, who have become paioed and disgusted with tbe reckless extravagance, and unreasoning violence and oppression of Messrs McKinley Lodge, Reed & Co., prevailing. If the sentiment of the country does not under go a.cbange, we confidently look for bis election to the presidency of tbe Union in 1892. INIQUITOUS INGALLS. The President of the United States Senate, John J. Ingalls, is conceded to be possessed of the best vocabulary of words, and ift perhaps the most finished rhetorician of aoy man in this country. Whenever be speaks, his ideas find expression in language unexcelled for extreme accuracy and nicety. Conse quently his meaning is scarcely ever misconceived or mistaken. His audacious statement in reference 4o corruption in po'itics already publie!*" ed i? ?? follows : "The pariScation of politics is an ? ?deseen* drearn. Government is XftKHU Politics is a battle for supre macy. Parties are tbe armies. Tbe decalogue aod the golden rule bave no place in apolitical campaign. The object is success. To defeat the antag onist and expel the party iu power is tbe purpose. Iu war it is lawful to deceive tbe adversary, to hire Hessians, to purchase mercenarie?, to mutilate, to kill, to destroy. The commander .who lost a battle through the activity of bis mor d nature would be the derision aod jest, of history. This modern cant about tbc corruption of politics is fatiguing io the extreme. ; It proceeds from the tea-costard and syllabub dilettanteis in. the frivolous and desultory sentimental ism of epicenes.'7 Even if the above be a correct ex position of his thoughts on tbe sc eject, it is a lasting disgrace to the party be represents, that they should ever bave been uttered by one, whom they bave seen fit to phce in sucb high position in tbe great Government of the United States. It is quite probable that those widely circulated sentiments of the Senator operated as a factor, in his defeat, in the recent political revolution ?n Kansas. (From our Regular Correspondent.) WASHINGTON LETTEK. Washington, D. C, Nov. 17, 1890. Mr Harrison has shut his eyes to tbe result of tbe recent elections, aod made op his mind to arge in bis annual message to Congress the passage by the Ser te of tbe Force bill and by the Boose of the notorious ship subsidy bills. Io short, be has, in spite of the protests of some of tbe most far seeing mem bere of his party, iocloding Mr. Blaioe, determined to cast bis lot with the radical wing of the Republican party. That, however, does not mean that the Force bill will be passed. All indications are against its passage, as it is certain that more Republican Sen ators would now vote against it than would have done so at the last session of Congress had it then reached a vote Mr. Harrison will also, it is said, strongly endorse the McKinley tariff act in his message. Democrats fear that these things are too good to be true. They can hardly realize that their opponents sh >old be willing to do so much toward democratic success in 1S92. j There are good reasons for believing that as soon as Congress meets bills ! will be introduced by republican Sena j tors from the Northwest, modifying or repealing sections of the new tariff law, which bears dowu heavily ; upon the citizens of the States they represent. It is believed that bills placing bindirg twine on tbe free list, j and reducing 'be doty on ready made j clothing would receive the vote3 of every repoblican Senator from west of the Mississippi river ; and there is some talk aboot a combination which in retorn for the votes of several republi can Senators from the Eastern States for these measures, fhall repeal all duties opon raw materials Such bills conid easily be gotten through the House, as it is a fact well known here that at last twenty-five members of tbe House voted for the McKinley bill un der protest, and' only because they lacked tbe moral courage to stand the lashes of the party whip which was given them unsparingly whenever they evinced a disposition to kick outside of the party traces. Mr. Blaioe is now engaged in per forming his celebrated reciprocity act. He hopee to save the moribond old Re publican party by holding out glittering inducements to the people of what will be accomplished in the future, and by ignoring tbe injnry inflicted upon them at this time, whicn they have resented so effectoally by their votes Mr. Blaioe has a long head, and his brain is an active one, bat be cannot bamboo zle the American people, who know that real reciprocity with the whole world would be a grand thing for ns, bot who know also that the reciprocity with a string tied to it, provided for, or rather alleged to be provided for, by the McKinley tariff law, is a fraod pore and simple. Oh no, Mr. Blaioe, the people have been juggled with too long in the 4'protection** line to be caught by the false glitter of your ' recipro city.*' Toe Treasury surplus has been re coced so low lately that is said com pleted pension cases are held op in the Pension Office because, the Treasory wanted a chance to get in some more money before honoriog another draft of the Commissioner of Pensions, who drew $19,000,000 last month. It be comes plainer every day that the deficit prophesied by the Democrats at the last session of Congress for the next fiscal year will exi?*t j Not satisfied with having served notice opon Senator Quay that he must vacate bis position as chairman of tbe Repoblican National Committee, there is an element in the Republican party that wau?s to depose Speaker Reed from the leadership of his party in the House, and the proposition has been boldly put forth that the complimentary nomination for Speaker of the next. House be given to some other repubii can. There might be something in this if there was anybody else to lead tbe republicans, but R.?ed is about the only prominent Republican that was re-elected, and the chances are that he would bave gone with the rest if ine election in Maine had not taken place before the tariff bill went into effect ; and they will have to follow him or nobody.

Under the above caption, the Wilmington Messenger of yesterday, says : The Hon. Altamont Moses, President of the Suniter, S. C , Board of Trade, and Messrs. M. G. Ryttenberg, It. P. Monaghan, W. A Brown and N. O'Donnell, all prominent business men. were in the city yesterday to confer witb the Atlantic Coast Line author ities with regard to the rates of freight for Sumter. Mr. R. A. Brand, of Sumter, soliciting agent for the Coast Line, also accompanied them. The committee, having conferred with the proper railroad authorities, returned to Sumteron tbe 10:10 train last night. During their stay in our city the visitors were shown courtesies by Col. F. W. Kerchner, president of the Wilmington Chamber of Commerce. Sumter is one of the Vi ve, progressive and growing places in our sister State. The city now has4,282 inhabitants compared to 2,700 as shown by an enumeration made under authority of the city officials In 1887. This isa remarkable growth? gain of 1518 in three years, a little more than 56 per cent. Within tbe past twelve months fifty new buildings, twelve of them business houses, have been erected in tbe city, and we are in formed that only two business houses in the entire place nre now vacant. Within the past twelve months also, the city shows a very satisfactory industrial growth. Besides a dozen or more of new mercantile establish ments, the new industries embrace a planing mill, a machinp shop and foundry, an electric light plant, an ice factory, and an extensive bricK manufactory, etc. Tbe Atlantic Coast Line is at the present time erecting a large and handsome warehouse, and the contract has been let for a complete system of water works to be completed inside of nine months. In addition to these, there are numerous old and established industries including a large and ? flourishing cotton mill. It should not be forgotten that a new rail road has also been completed between Sumter and Charleston this year, opening up new freight lines north and west. The new rail road is the Charleston, Sumter and Northern, also being continued northward to Bennetts ville, S. C, to which place it is expected trains will be running by the 1st of February. The city now has four railroads, and with in creased advantages and steady growth as in dicated above, we are told that real estate has increased fif:y ppr cent, in the past two or three years. The cotton receipts last year were 22,000 bales, but with another railroad opening u-p a fine cotton country the receipts this season are expected to exceed those of last year by at least twenty-five per cent. Pire in Camden. About 1 a. m. on last Tuesday night the alarm of fire was beard. The awakened town 5000 learned that the fine stables of Mr. S. B. Latham were on fire. The fire origina ed in the front part of the building where the hay was kept. Having such combustible material to feed upon it immediately gained great force and volume. Mr, Albert Abie, a native of New York, now in the employ of Mr. Latham, was sleep ing in the front part of the stable. He was awakened by an outsider. As soon as he looked nround he discoved that the fire had made great progress. Sparks from above were failing all around him. He left all of his property in his room which was lost, and at temp ed to save the horses. In the blinding heat and smoke he worked gallontlj- uutil the last horse bad beeD cut loose. This w&s-done at eminent risb to his own life, his hands beingbadly scorched by theflames. However, his efforts were almost futile. Although he managed to get some of the horses out, they excitedly and madly ran back into the burn building and perished. Fourteen horses were burned alive, five of them belonging to Mr. S. B. Latham, seven to Col. Broaddas, one to Mr. Rollings and one to Mr. Befhune, of Eastern Kersbaw One fine Holstein bull belonging to \fr. John Man was destroyed, a cow of Mr. Latham's, valued at $70 CO, also met "us death. In the left of the stables was 505 bushels of corn together with rough food amounting in all to $1,000 none of which was saved. Eight buggies and two wsgons were also lost. The total loss is estimated at about $5,000 while the insurance amounted to $2,235. Every effort was made to extinguish the flames but the New York fire company could bave done nothing under the circumstances. Some of the stock that escaped ran for miles, among the number was a mule that scampered away to Kirk wood and fell in a twenty foot well of Mr E. M Boy kin-, Jr., strange to say he was not much hurt, and by means of a windlass was drawu out. On the morning after the fire the sight was sickening, the odor of baked horses pervaded the air and their poor shriveled burnt forms could be disiinguisbtd among the debris. An old soldier told us the scene reminded him of some battle field.? Camden Chronicle, Nov. 14. m-m* What the Election has Demon strated. This is not an "off year" in a national seoi-e, for it is the year of a Congressional election, and the general interest was not less than in a Presidential year, alt hough there was rot so much picturesque incident. It is the year of reckoning with Republican abuse of power?an abuse shown most flagrantly in the contemptuous treatment of <he minor ity in the House, in the monstrous excesses of the tariff, and iu the flagrant defiance of offi cial honor and honesty in the Republican campaigu in Pennsylvania. The elec?ion bas demonstrated anew the political health and vigor of the country. It has shown thai there is a patriotic spirit superior to party spirit, a conservative independence strong enough to resist the dragooning of party, and to stand fast for wise and honest con viction.?Harper's Weekly.

The Rafting Creek Contest?Sear borough to Have the Seat. The Board of Commissioners of Election met pursuant to adjournment, in their office in the Court House, on Monday last. The Commissioners, ruling by their chair man, W. H. Ingram, declined to consider any contests purely technical in their nature, and not based on violations of law which were evidently designed to affect the real results of the election. Only those cases were considered where the purpose w?s intended to defraud and defeat a fair expression of tbe wishes of the people. In the matter of the Rafting Creek contest, the Commissioners found substantially as follows : In reference to the 46 votes claimed by W. D.Scarborough, a candidate for the office of State Senator, at Rafting Creek precinct, we 6nd as matter of fact, that said 46 votes were duly qualified legal voters, that they present ed themselves at the s.tid polls during the legal hours of election, v. ent into the building where the election was being conducted, pre sented themselves then and there, exhibited their registration certificates, were duly sworn aud did vote in such boxes as were there provided : that they and each of them did then at:d there actually offer to vote for the candidate for State Senator, and desired and in.cnded to vote lor the said W. D. Scar borough for that office, that they did all in their power to carry out their purpose, but were refused and denied the opportunity of casting their ballots for said W. I). Scarbor ough, because the managers refused to open a box for said office as required by law, that 46 legal voters have been practically disfranchis ed through no fault of theirs. Counsel for said W. D. Scarborough quoted numerous legal authorities, sustaining said position, and on principle and authority we have allowed said 46 votes for W D. Scar borough, as he was clearly aud justly enti tled to same. The affidavits introduced by tbe Tillman faction, through their attorney, John R. Keels, Esq., did not in the opinion of the Commissioners go to the merits of tbe case. The names of none of these parties making the affidavits appeared on the poll list of the club, and it did not appear tbat they made bona fide efforts to vote. Whereas, in the case of Col. Scarborough the names of all the affi ants were upon the poll list, as having voted in the other boxes which were duly opened. This decision of the Commissioners gives Col. Scarborough a majority of 17 votes over Dr. Anbott. Mr. J. M. Mosel y was appointed the special messenger to convey the returns to the Board of State Canvassers at Columbia. The State Pair. We are informed that the Atlantic Coast Line sold about 1200 tickets to passengers to the Fair from this point. Ou previous years the tickets sold here never exceeded t>00.

The wide, handsome and well laid out streets of charming Columbia presented at night a ma g ni fi vent appearance, illuminated by its brilliant a-.d many colored lights.

The negro was arrested by the Sheriff and brought to the jail, but he turned out to be the wrong man. Before, however, it Was discovered to bea case of mistaken identity, the ja?!or ?s was his duty, proceeded to Search the prisoner and found a loaded pistol apparently concealed by his overalls. He was again arrested upon the charge of car rying concealed weapons. After a prelim inary examination, he was discharged upon the positive evidence of Mr. Wactor, who testified that he accompanied the Sheriff and the prisoner to the jail and saw the butt end of the pistol sticking out of the prisoner's pocket along the way and it only became tem porarily concealed by a movement of rhe prisoner as he eDtered the jail. His overalls had slipped down?he pulled them up and in this way concealed the pistol. Upon this evidence, and under the circumstances, tbe Trial Justice dismissed tbe case. The State vs. John J. Cato?Violatici of election law of the State. This case was adjourned until Saturday the 15th upon motion of defendant's counsel for the prelim inary examination by the Magistrate. After hearing the evidence, which in his judgment, presented a prima facie cast against the defendant, and argument thereon by Messrs. John R. Keels, counsel for Cato, and R. D. Lee, counsel for the prosecution, the Justice decided to send the case up to the court of General Sessions. Mr. Cato promptly gave the required bond, in the sum of $500," with Dr H. T. Abbott and Mr. R. M. Pitts as sureties for 'his appearance at the court of General Sessions, which sets on tbe first Monday in March next. The following is the statement of, and decision in, the case, by Trial Justice Reyn olds, furnished upon 'the demand of J. R. Keels, Esq., couosel for the defendant: The defendant was arrested and brought before me on the 8th day of November last, upon the affidavit of W. H. Commander, of Sumter, which charged the defendant in substance with wilful and corrupt neglect in not producing "said ballot boxes, at said election precinct, at said general election on tbe 4th day of November, 1890, and wilfully and corruptly neglecting toconduct said electionas required by law, and to perform his duty as such manager of election," and that the purpose of said John J. Cato in wilfully neglecting his duty, as such manager, of election as aforesaid, would give to the political faction to which he belonged an undue and unlawful advantage in such election. The counsel for the defendant asked for ten days time in which to prepare for the defence Counsel for the prosecution pressed for an immediate hearing on Monday following, the 10th. In order that the defendant might not be put at any disadvantage and have the necessary time demanded, I fixed the follow ing Saturday, Nov. 15th?one week off?for his examination, and took defendant's and witnesses' bond for appearance on that day. Counsel, witnesses and prisoner appeared on the day fixed, to wit tbe 15th Nov. last, and the State proved among other facti, the ! appointment of Mr. Caro as one of the J managers of election at Rafting Creek I precinct, his oath of qualification, sig.ied be ! fore Hon. T. V. Walsh, P. J., and the filing of same in Clerk's Office by Col. J. D. Graham ; I also the delivery to said Cato on the Saturday j preceding the election by the said Probate Judge, tbe six ballot boxes, keys to same, and tickets. That on tbe Monday preceding the election, a demand was made upon the said Cato by Mr. T. P. Sanders, a man of high stauding and u aim peached integrity?the chairman of the board of managers, appointed for Rafiing Creek precinct?for ttie delivery to him of the boxes, and was refused although Mr. Sanders offered to receipt for same. It was further proved by the State that Mr. Cato, although he refused to deliver the boxes to Mr. Sanders his fellow manager, did deliver to one Mr. DuPre, a member of the same faction as himself, and actually allowed to remain out of his possession and custody nearly 24 hours, four of the ballot boxes. It was further proved by the State that Mr. Cato neglected to produce three of the ballot boxes, to wit, the boxes for Senator and other State officers, and tbe one for the Constitutional Amendment, os the morning of the election, and with reference to those effices and that measure no votes were, or could be pulled. That Cato was a member of the so called "Tillman faction " After taking the testimony of four witnesses, tbe substance of which is given above, coun sel for the prosecution stated to the Court .that he closed the case for theS'ate, and after hearing argument pro and con I concluded to send the case up. The Section under which defendant was in dicted. Section 140, Ger.'l Statutes S. C, provides "If any officer on whom any duty is e:ijoined in this chapter (which prescribes the manner of holding elections in South Caro lina) shall be guiity of any willful neglect of such duty, or of any corrupt conduct in the execution of the s':me, r.nd he thereof con victed, he shall be deemed guiity of a misde meanor, punishable by fine not exceeding five hundred dollars, or imprisoaiLeut not exceed ing one jear." My understanding of the law which governs tbe magistrate in the examination of a prisoner charged with crime, is that when the State produces such evidence as creates in his mind a belief that the charges are founded in prob ability?or, in other words, where the facts testified to make the charges agai; st him bear tbe appearance cf truth, it is his duty under most circumstances to send the case up. I will not undertake now to give all my reasons for the decision, earnestly desiring to avail myself of the advice of Lord Mansfield to judges, never to give their reasons if it be posstble to refrain from it. Only at the ur gent request of counsel have I written this, at the sacrifice of other important matters press ing upon me at this time. I will- say, how ever, that while officers, as a general rule, are presumed to do their duty, yet. when the law prescribes with exactness what those duties are and affixes a penalty for their vio lation, and the violation and neglect of samp have been shewn by positive and indisputable proof, then the wiilful neglect must follow as a presumption of law. Taking all the evi dence into consideration and the circumstan ces presented by it, the facts supporting tbe charges against the defendant created iu my mind a belief that they were probably true, and the case being one of unusuM gravity and importane.-. I concluded that it was my duty to send it up for investigation and trial by a h>i?her tribunal, where both the State of South Carolina and the prisoner will derive the best benefit of the law. The undersigned thinks he ought to be ex cused from further expression of opinion in the case by reason of a principle laid down by a very learned Judge iu triis State [obiter dictum) "that every one was presumed to kuow the ?aw excepta Trial Justice."
