Hampton still holds the first plaee io
S um ter's heart.
A telegram of congratulation from
the Game Cook City was sent to Presi
dent-elect Cleveland.
If Su niter's Cleveland Celebration
was oot a success, notwithstanding the
rato, wha? is the reason why.
The city dailies between breaths
While claim trig to have elected Cleveland
are engaged in his cabinet.
;Dtd;Sumter go for Harrison ? We
are sorry Senator Irby was not here
Monday night so as to be able to reply
."Sumter will go for Harrison when
Harrison*s grandson is a candidate for
toe Presidency, as a Democrat, on a
Democratic platform, oot other wise.
- The rain on Monday night was oot
\re hear, an unmitigated ouisanee, as it
provided the desired excise for many to
indulge in several smiles.
If tne rain had net come to cool off
Ine celebration enthusiasm there in no
telling when Sumter would have left
off celebrating'. It might have been
extended into a gaU week.
Since last Tuesday night Sumter has
been bubbling over with enthusiasm
We got rid of a small portion of it by tbe
grandest and most successful celebration
fceld within the State.
* Hon. Jottn J. Hem phi , is tbe man
fa this State, most likely to be appoint
ed toa high position ander Cleveland,
fits services aod abillity merit such re
cognition
The question now agitating the minds
, -of the South Carolina office hunters- is,
who will control the patronage of this
-State? Tillman Irby & Co., or the
leaders of the Conservative faction ? It 11
'?b an important question to them. 0
Tbe crowd of post onice candidates
?growB space. There are now said to be
?bout a baker s dosen' of candidates in
. the field. So far there is one candidate
for tbe first assistant's position, Emmett
.Beardon? who efficiently fills it now.
In the hurry of getting to press on
last Wednesday one thing was neglect
.ed. We desired to compliment Mr.
"Gen. Hammel, manager of the Western
~T7nion telegraph onice, and his assist
^a?W?dr^tlSe excellent manner in which
they handled the election returns.
' ~ bwirerCleveland will select a cabi
. net that will do tbe work required. He
.may not be .able. to appoint all the
d?stwgwahed men who are suggested,
?or may bo be able to satisfy every
" ho?y, yet we believe the cabinet will be
composed of men selected for their
personal worth and ability, aod not as
the Harrison cabinet was.
-Wffl-HU! be the next President?
.-or is be doomed to the same rate as
~ James . G. B?aine, who occupied tbe
same position in tne Republican Party
that Hill does in the Democratic?its
ahrewdest^politi?ian.
Kolb of Alabama seems determined
to ruake trouble, and Weaver is aiding
him. Kolb persists in claiming that
te. was elected Governor of tfce.t State
- 'and says he will take the oath of office
-and fight the matter in the courts.
J Weaver goes to Alabama in a few days
. to consult with Kolb. Kolb will oot
' gain the governorship/ bat will make no
.end of trouble aod bitterness.
The office hunters of all sections ere
. bustlers, but tbe Georgia variety is the
-hustler par excellence. Several days
ago ODe specimen: presented bimself at
the Treasury Department with recom
mendations, from Speaker Crisp, and
others, and made application for a posi
tion. He was courteously received and
told that his application would be put on
file for consideration by the new admin
istration. There is nothing like being
soon.

It is said that the celebration oo
Monday night was governed by a
partisan sprit. This is a falsehood of
the most pronounced aod groundless
type. A? a member of the committee,
the writer knows .that all the invited
. speakers senators Hampton, B itter Irby
and Yaoce, Gov Tillmao,aod Generals
, Yuomans and Kennedy, were selected
by the anani tu ms voice of the whole
-Committee. Gov. Tillman was written
aod telegraphed invirations to couie, as
was also Senator irby, and their failure
to be present was their own decision.
The invitations extended t) Governor
Tillman and Senator Irby were the
same as those extended to the other
distinguished men invited. Gov. Till
man and Senators Vance, Butler aod
Irby did not accept, Gen. Hampton,
Gen. Yoamans, and Gen. Kenoedy
did, and Sumter was proud to bave
them as her, guests. If the committee
had not desired tbe presence of any ot e,
we can assure our readers that ao j g
invitation would have never been
extended to bim. Tbe committee was
local, non-partisan and responsible for
its acts to the individual citizeos of the I 6
eity alone, and not to any political
party or faction. The effort was to j
entirely divest the occasion >: local g
political significance, and to make it tbe j
grandest affair ever held in Sumter. It li
is conceded by all that Sumter surpassed fc
all rivals and outdid her former efforts, .
and everybody is satisfied except a fl
few kick-rs ,

THE ELECTION.
It is settled beyond a doubt that the
Democrats will not only elect the Pres
ident but will have a majority of about
60 in the House of Representatives,
and wilt have 44 Senators to the Re
publicans-39 and the People's Party 5,
thus giving the Democrats the control
by the vote of the Vice President, even
were the People's Party Senators to
vote with the Republicans, which is not
likely, as they are pledged to tariff re
form." -
Until the official returns are in it will
be impossible to tell what the Demo
cratic majority in the Electoral College
will be. It is estimated from 260 to
303 Roth parties claim Ohio and
California, aod io these States the vote
is so colse that an official canvass will
be. neoess&ry to deolare the result.
Geo. Moise is elected by a majority
of about 300 aod his elee tie is doe io
a great messore to the falling off of the
negro vote io the lower portioo of the j
State. Io criticising the people of Som
ter County for their apathy, it was. not
our intern ion to discredit those Demo
cratic workers who staid at the polls
from early to late, working for Demo
cratic saetees. These meo deserve all
the more praise for the work they .did.
Bat we stick to oar original assertion
that Summer County has cause to be
ashamed of the result of the election.
In previous years the county has giveo
more than 1,000 majority to Elliott and
she should' have done eveo better for her
own son, Moise.
The Manning Times and the Somter
Herald have seeo St to cast an odiom
pon the Conservatives of Sam tor
County for not turning out to vote, aod
?veo go so far as to accuse them of vio
lating their pledges. It should be re
membered that there is ooiy about 90
difference io the strength of the two
'actions to this ooooty, and unless it cao
>e proved to the contrary, the responsi
>iuty rests equally upon both factions.
\od the facts of the case as we gather
rom information received, are that at
oost boxes the Conservatives turned
>ot better, worked harder, and cast
Dore votes thaa t?e Tili ma nites did. It
s useless to try to fasten the odium
tpoo eitbe* faction?both are guilty of
leglect.
IOW SUMTES CELEBRATED.
When it was defioitel j knowo that the
emocracy had won the most wonderful
olitical triumph of the century, it was a
regone conclusion that Somter wenld cele
ra te the victory, that meant so much to us
II, io a manner worthy of her past record
ad future prospects. The question was not
shall we celebrate ?" bat **bow shall we
lebrate so great an occasion in a fitting
anner?" The demonstration of Monday
tght answered the question. That the cele"
ratioF was a success is acknowledged on all
des, and the secret of the success is the
lie-spirited unify of the people, the rim and
?ergy with which they enpported every
fort of the committee, the determination to
ire a celebration tbit would serre as a
usern to tbe rest of the State ; and 6naily,
t a great degree, to the patriotic enthusiasm
tbe women. The women were appealed to
cd tbe result show* that it was not in rain.
The victory being national, it was deter
lined that no factional feeling: engendered
F State politics, should bare a place in the
M eb rat io ; therefore the committee decided
> invite the prominent men of the State,
respective of their factional affiliations. A
srnmittee was sent to Colombia to invite
ren. Wade Hampton, Governor Tillman and
enator Irby. Telegrams were sent to Sena
>r Vance, of North Carolina, Senator Butler
od Gen. Jobo D. Kennedy. Governor
illman waf absent from tbe city and conld
ot be seeo, bat was telegraphed to at Clem
>n College, where be was attending a meet
?g of the tfoard of Trustees, and a letter
ft to await his return to Colombia. He
?plied that he was too busy to accept. Sena
?rlrby wire-d that he would accept if sick
en in bis family did not prevent. At the
l?t moment be wired that he could not come,
b reply was received from Senator Butler,
en. Hampton, Gen. You mans and Gen.
ennedy accepted and were present with us
Monday aigbt.
Tbe decoration of tbe stores began on Sat
rday, but it was on .Monday morning that
je stores and private residences were swathed
bunting. By noon Main Street presented
spectacle that amply repaid those w'm> came
>t?S distances to be present. Every store
ont from parapet to parement was profusely
raped with the national colors, and bung
ito flags and Chinese lanterns The Court
buse and City Hall were handsomely and
istefully decorated. Moanghan Block would
ave been a credit to any city daring any
;te. From this block to Altamont Moses'
[ore was stretched art immense Cleveland and
te^enson banner, ornamented in the center
'ith Sumt?f's Game Cock, tbe identical one
int cre*t;d such a sensation in Columbia
uring the Centennial. Levi's and Belitzer
; Spann** was as gaily attired as their
etgbbors. In fact, nil the stcus were so
andeomely decorated that to mention one is
3 mention them nil. A "People's Choice*' ;
Cler^Und and Stevenson'' banner extended
lone at least T5 feet ot the Liberty Street
ra'l of J. Rvtteiiberg 4 Sjn'sstjre. S'retch
d between the. trees in front >>f the Court
louse Sq/iare whs the most unique and env
estir? of a!l the banners. Ii wm$ inscribed :

!1*3S Him."
From Schwartz Bro3. to O "Don nel ? w*s a
ed, white and blue banner ten feet wide and
5 feel Ion/, inscribed,
Cleveland and Stevenson and Moise.
Besides the larjre banners already men ion
d there were others too numerous to mention
nd all bore appropriate mottoes.
Tbe residences of the city on, and oiF, the
ine of march were profusely decorated with
uoticg, ?-tgs and lanterns. Tbe public
pirit of oar people was here more prom- 1
nently displayed than in any other instance,
ar numbers of houses on. tbe outlying streets
rere as handsonvly dressed and illuminated
as those passed by tbe parade. Hundreds of
our own citizens iu addition to the visitors
w-ho crowded tbe streets, spent tbe afternoon
in driving and walking over the city inspect
ing tbe gala attire.
THE PARADE.
The speakers, Sumter's honored guests,
Generals Hampton, Youmans and Kennedy,
arrived on the 7.30 train from Columbia, and
they were met and welcomed by tbe reception
committee, and several thousand enthusiastic
Democrats, each one of whom was a wel
coming 00remittee of one.
As tbe train roiled up tc the depot the artil
lery corps, consisting of Col. D. J. Auld, D.
Rosendorf, E. T. Windham, W. W. D.
Chandler, W. J. McKagen J. D. Wilder, J,
M. Wingate and-Hair began firing the
salute of thirteen guns in honor of Ex
Governor Wade Hampton, around whom there
crowded a wildly cheering throng of bis old
soldiers and followers of '76
The guests were at once takea in waiting
carriages to the Jervey Bouse where luo?.b
was in readines |for them. While lunch was
bring served tbe procession was formed and
put in motion by Chief Marshall R. A.
Brand and assistants.
As the procession reached the Jervey House
the carriages containing tbe speakers fell in
line at tbe proper place and moved up Main
Street. The houses from one end of tbe
street to the other were abl?se with lights,
and the yards with Chinese lanterns, and the
streets brilliantly lighted up by barrels of
burning rosin, red lights, sky rockets and
roman candles.
The residences of Messrs. B. R. Nash, J.
J. Laughrey, Dr. A. J China, C T. Mascan,
D. Rosendorf aod C. E. Stubbs, on account
of their size attracted general attention.
Liberty Street was as brilliant as Main.
Tbe houses of Messrs. Neil O'Donnell, and
Mitchell Levi, and St. Joseph's Academy were
brilliant with lights from cellar te garret.
The procession, viewed as it passed tbe cor
ner of Main and Liberty Streets, presented
an impressive and brilliant spectacle of pa
triotic enthusiasm.
First came the Bicycle Club, each man
bearing a lantern aod each wheel decorated
with flags and bunting. Then the Chief Mar
shall and Staff, followed by a division of
mounted men, three or four hundred strong.
Then the Fonrth Regiment Band, preced
ing tbe carriages containing tbe speakers.
Tbe A. C L. R. R. and C. S. k N. R. R.
depot forces, followed in a wagon literally
covered with flags aud transparencies. One
banner inscribed "Moise goes to Congress?
Murray goes back to his Plow," attracted at
tention of all.
Those on foot followed, eight hundred
to one thousand strong, carrying torches and
transparencies. The following are a few sam
ples of tue inscriptions on the transparen
cies:
"Money vs. Manhood ; Money Knocked
Out."
"Rainbow Chasing?Alabama, North Car
olina, West Virginia, Delaware. No Rain
bow Chasing this?Ohio, Illinois, Wisconsin,
Indiana."
"Trusts We Bust."
"3 H's? Hill Hoodoed Harrison."
"3 C'e?Cleveland, Congress and the Conn
try."
"Hurrah for Stevenson, he turns the rogues
Out."
? The Game Cock Crows," "Cleveland,
Stevenson and Moise." "Tbe Game Cock
County Always Leads."
"Grover, Grover, Four Years More of
Grover !"
' Baby Ruth will now be rocked in the
White Hoase Cradle, and led with pap from
tbe White House Ladle."
"The next President must be a Democrat.
Tbe next President is a Democrat."?N. Y.
World.
"No English cheap labor."?N. Y. Her
ald
Two cartoons were especially g' ??i ; The
Burial of the G. O. P.?A coffin with Har
rity, Whitney and Croker officiating as grave
diggers.
The Tammany Tiger?"Tammany was
loyal. Hurrah for Croker 1"
Providence was in the procession in full
force, beaded by Capt. Charley Williamson,
Representative-elect. The banner was suita
bly inscribed. "Providence will provide."
And the record of the club at every election
since 183C. Providence did-herself proud
this time, fora fact.
Bishop ville was represented by a strong
contingent and the Guards in full uniform
The Guards were taken in charge by the
S L. f., and after the parade were entertain
ed at the Armory, coffee, sandwiches and
other refreshments being served.
The Stateburg colored Democrats, who
were denied tbe right to vote at tbe primary,
were on hand fifty strong, and they marched
in the procession beaded by their band, and
rejoiced with other true Democrats over the
election of Cleveland and Moise.
It can be truly said that the celebration
was an affair in which tbe whole county
took part, for every section of the county
was represented. This city merely led the
movement, and the Democrats of tbe county
did the rest.
Our famous old citizen and pedestrian
Capt. Robt. W. Andrews, who was 104 years
old on tbe Fourth of last July, filled tbe con
spicuous position of color-bearer and carried
a large U. S. flag in the procession. Capt.
Andrews has seen every President of the Uni
ted States?including Washington?except
two, and hopes to see Cleveland inaugurated.
Capt. Andrews it will be remembered drove
tbe carriage, four-in-band, with Gen. Hamp
ton in tbe procession on Sumter's Campaign
Day iu 1876. He had not met the General
since then unt 1 now, and it was a pleasant
re-union to both. Tbe Captain occupied a
seat on tbe speaker's stand.
The procession followed the route laid out :
dowo Liberty Street as far as tbe C. S. k N.
R. R. and back to Main and up Main to War
ren, through Warren and Washiugtbon to
Calboun.
Capt. Delgsr's, A. S. Brown's, General and
Maj. Moise's and Col. Marion Sanders' resi
dences were all pictures of beauty, brilliantly
lighted from 'op to bottom.
The Sumter Institute presented an imposing
appearance, all the windows being illumi
nated and the extended piaxzas bright nitb
lanterns.
Proceed log down Calhoun, Church, and
into Liberty, all houses hrightly light
ed and gaily decorated, the Monumental
Square was reached and the procession dis
persed. The speakers were escorted to the
Staad through an immense crowd that filled
tbe square. Every seat reserved for the ladies
was filled and many ladies who eould not
obtain seats were standing.
The meeting was ca led to order by
Chairman Abe Ily ttenherg, and Dr. N. W.
Edmunds offered a fervent prayer of thanks
giving to God for the Messing of victory
which had crowned our<lf>rts.
Hon. Altamont Moses, amidst clamorous
cries of Hampton, Hampton, Hampton, in
troduced the old hero, as he who, in '76,
bad led the movement that redeemed from
misrule, disgrace and destruction the State j
be ioved so well and had served so faithfully.
Gen. Hampton advanced to the front of the j
stand und was ?reeted with cheers so hearty,
enthusiastic, and sincere, that hie memory
WhS irrestibly carried back to the days of'76,
as he ?nid in his speech later on.
It had been raining slightly for some time,
n*l Gen Hampton ^pokf; while bis audience
stood ?o a cold, driving rain to hear him,
heedless of the discomfort they suffered. The
following condensed report of his speech is
taken from tbe Slate of yesterday. Mr. J.
Wilson Gibbs, who made tbe report, was sent
over from Colombia for that especial purpose :
"I had determined," said Gen. Hampton,
"never again to speak in South Carolina, nor
; would 1 bave done so on this occasion if any
question of State politics was involved ; but
when the true men of the Democracy all over
tbe United States are celebrating this great
> and important victory which has crowned at
I last the Democracatic party, I could not resist
! the invitation of a town which merits what
Burns said : "No town surpasses for honest
men and bonnie lasses." I regret that so
many of the latter were driven away by the
inclement weather, unless they have chosen to
stay here and be "reigning bells." Yon do
well to celebraie the victory we have just
achieved. That victory means to this coun
try peace, prosperity and happiness. The
workingman will not bave his hard-earned
gains taken away to enrich the plutocrats of
the North, and every man can rest in peace
under bis own vine and fig tree. But in
South Carolina that victory means more. It
means tbe rescue of the United States from
worse than death, for I tell you bad the
Republican party achieved the victory you
would not have been (pointing to a traos
I parency just in front of bim) invited to tbe
i funeral of tbe Force bill, but you would have
been the victims of it." [Applause ]
On account of the fierceness of the storm,
t Gen. Hampton said be would stop, but the
crowd wanted more, and he continued :
"I want to tell you that this night has
waked in my heart the memories of '76, and I
think you that I have the opportunity of fac
ing a Sooth Carolina audience?one which
would at least give me a respectful bearing.
I had never failed to get that in South Caro
lina, and I did not believe, until recently,
that any of the men in South Carolina, with
whom I had stood shoulder to shoulder in
battle, and who wore the red shirt with me,
would have howled me down and not listened
when I appealed for the peace and unity of
Sonth Carolina. [Thunderous applause.]
"My life's work is done?how it has been
done is not for meto say. I came only to say
to you, that in all the positions to which the
State has called me, in every one I have bad
but one guiding star: to hold tbe dignity,
promote the prosperity and work with heart,
soul and arm for the glory of South Caro
lina." [Great applause ]
Gen. Hampton said that when he died, if
his heart could be examined, the word
"South Carolina" would be found there in
letters of blood. ("Great applause.J What
ever might be in store for her, he implored
the richest blessings of God on the State.
God bless her for ever ! He trusted that the
people would stand shoulder to shoulder for
the glory, interest and welfare of tbe State.
1 Though the people bave honored me with
various positions, I necer was a candidate,
oor I never asked a .nan to vote for me."
fGre.it applaufe.J
Voice: "Let me lock in your face once
more.'*
"I ask from South Carolina but one thing.
In tbe words of tbe old prelate, an old man,
broken with tbe storms of State, is come to
lay his weary bones among you. Give him a
little earth, for charity."'
A perfect hurricane of applause greeted the
concluding sentence, and the vast crowd
cheered tbe old warrior again and again.
The driving rain cut short Gen. Hampton's
speech and rendered it impossible to take a
full report of it. This is greatly to be regret
ted, as tbe writer regards it as one of the
truest, siocerest, most unselfishly patriotic,
and at the same time most pathetic speeches
be has ever listened to. If Sumter had never
done one thing to be proud of she could now
ever after look back with pride to Monday
night, for then by her treatment of Hampton,
grateful memories of the stirring but happy
days of '76 were renewed in his heart. Sum
ter is proud to know that she was able to
make Wade Hampton feel that the Game Cock
County is as loyal to bim and the true Demo
cracy as she was in 1876-78.
At tbe conclusion of Gen. Hampton's
speech, the most of the ladies and numbers
of tbe men left on account of pouring rain ;
but Col. R. D Lee introduced Gen. Leroy
Youmane to a still large crowd as tbe man
who filled the office of District Attorney with
distinguished ability duriug the four years
of Cleveland's administration, and went out
of office at the end of the term, solely because
he was not one of those w!:c "bend the preg
nant hinges of the knee that thrift may fol
low fawning," and Said that the new reform
so happily begun by the glorious Democratic
victory aod the election of Cleveland and
Stevenson, woutd not be complete until
Youmane agaio filled the office of District
Attorney.
Gen. Youmans spoke for a half hour in
bis most eloquent manner, in the midst a
down poor of rain that bad rapidly increased
to a storm It. was remarkable to witness
how be ?c?d bis audience under such un
favorable conditions, and that he did so was
a tribute, both to bis oratorical facination
and the undampable enthusiasm of a Sumter
celebration crowd.
At the conclusion of his speech tbe meeting
was adjourned. It was a cause of generai
regret that the storm cut short the speeches,
and'especially that it prevented Gen. Kennedy
speaking at all.
But we had Hampton and beard him speak
once more, and Sumter is satisfied.
Gen. Hampton, Gen. Youmans and Gen.
Kennedy were the guests of Mr. J. E. Jervey,
of the Jervey House, and they spent the
night under bis hospitable care. Tbey were
escorted to the depot next morning and seen
safely on board the train for Columbia.
Before leaving Gen. Hampton expressed
himself to several of bis old frieeds as being
highly pleased with Sumter, the celebration
aod tbe reception given him by tbe people of
the county.

South Carolinians and especially those who
live in Sumter, that is far above, any place or
