T7H E TJ3STX03ST TIMES -H i Tho following Commissioner of Election for Union County wore appointed last Saturday by Go*. Evans, to wit: T. J. Betcnbaugh, C. A. Spenoor, and M. B. Lee. Th e past few weeks have witnessed an almost unprecedented revival in business all over tbe country, especially in \ the mining industry, iron and coal. Every day Drings news of voluotary iuoreases in the wages of lubor in different parts of the United States, the increases ranging from 6 to lb per cent. We wer.o informed this week that we 1 eft out a material part of the proceedings on th? ocoasion of tbe "Celebration of the election of oSicers for the Johnson Kifles." It is sa'd that a resolution was introduced to havo a monthly celebration, and the dca'ers rowing on the popularity of the measure advanced the nriee of nineannles fivoner ?-piii m meet the demand. The Conservatives of Spartanburg refuse logo into the primary aud have put out a straight ticket for the convention. The City Demoorat Conservative club met last Saturday nod after nominating delegates passed the following resolution vi/.: "Resolved, That it is the sense of this club ihu this county do not participate in the primary ordered by the Irby committee. It is furthermore the sense of the club that our delegates be instructed to the work for puttieg out a full list of delegates for the constitutional convention at the general election." We are just in raceipt of nc.rcular announcing that the Annual mectiog of tbc Stale Bible Society will be held at the First Baptist Chureb in Columbia on Thursday and Friday, the Island 2nd.days of August next. Through the oirole each looal society is requested to sand two delegates to the contention. Each society is also expected to send a report covering the operations of the oeiely during the past year, the number of members, the number of Bibles distributed, and any other matter of interest to the hooiety. The railroads are offering reduced rat's nod a large attendance is expected and hoped for. At a reeent meeting of the directors of the Cotton States and International Exposition, Mr. S. M. Jnman, ohairman of the finance Committee, denounced that more bonds were te be plaoed before the opening of the * nine town' -*n ftb?ut minutes all the bonds were placed, and the expenoes to the opening of the Exposition gates fully covered. This absolutely secures the financial status of the Exposition. A significant fact in the placing of tlie bonds was thai they were all taken by tbe officers of the Exposition and members of tbe Board of Directors, who are fully cognisant of tbe progress of tbe Exposition, and its financial standing aud outlook. What strange th'mgs we see in po'itics! A little while ago it was division, divisiou, divison ?"presto" nod ii's every man for himself. Aikeo has repudiated her agrement and will send a party delegation Oconee thai was held up everywhere as an example has stepped down from her peace and unit v pedastel and called for another convention; and Charleston snys that she is not willing to divide unless the reform counties will do the same. S?> we arc back where we started. And yet the peace and uuity movement has done some good. A great deal of the bitterness and hard feeling, once so rife among us. hns slipped away as <|uictly and a'liioBt as rapidly as the enthusiasm of a politician who lias been assigned a moneyless poat. ?. Itich'and has ngrecil (o a division of delegates. The Kichlnnd convention met on Saturday last to discuss the matter and take some ti nil action. It was decide! to divide I lie delegates so as to give the conservatives Ihroo the Iteformers two. The Oconee plan was adopted, vis: that the delegates should l>e chosen by primary, the three conservatives and two reformers receiving the highest number of votes to he declared the nominees to ho presented at the general c'cctiou. The measure was carried by a vote of 53 to I!'.'. When it was ascertained that llicro would he a division and c inseqmntly no longer any bone of contention to tignt over KJitor 'lonzales of The State gave notice that a new Democratic party would be organized. When that is done wont we hiven witch a poli'ical broth sure enough. There will be Tillman Reformers and Anti Tillman He f?iitier>. Conservatives and Auli-lrhy Dein ojra's, a'l claiming to be Democrats; uext comes the Republicans - "Double, double, j to.I and trouble. Fire burn an,j cauldron ' h-bble ' "Scale of dragoon, tooth of wolf, | Witches mummy, uiaw and gulf of the i ravin'd aalt aea aiiark" etc with now and I then a timid "Forty" democrat thrown in like bahboen's blood to cool the charm and make it "firm and good." If a foll#w cau get out of thia eaotliing broth with haif hia hide and a pinch of integrity maybe Le'll be ready to agree with Mat Wigfjllj, \ that "Polly ticks air rottun." A party of nowspapcr men and ladies have arranged a house-boat party, to leave New York City on the first of September, for tbc Cotton States and International Exposition. Tbc route which tbey take is a good illus- 1 tratton of the facilities for water travel through the Union. Tha boat's dimensions nrc thirty by twolvc feet, and the greater part of the distance will be poled. The route, as outlined, will traverse the Hudson river, iVom New York to Albany; thence by the Uric canal to Ituftalo; thence to Cleveland, along the shore of Lake Erie; thcnco to Poriomnutb, Ohio, by the Ohio oadbI, where the Ohi river will be taken to the Idississip* pi, anu the lutter down to some convenient i point, probnhly Memphia. From there, the , railroad will he taken to Atlanta,-wrhere the I parly will arrive on the 18th of September, 1 the opening day. Tne party propose to 1 havo a great dc-il of pleasure along the route, j hut the Kxpositi m will be the objective point, c Of (he many political farces that have been enacted iu our sta'e the "Forty" i movement heady the list. Gotten up as a peace movement by prominent men with patriotic motives, advocated by the press, endorsed by the people, it lies i^uominiously "petered out" purely end simply from a lac1', of vitality. It was brought out uud ? puraied before the people iu a good condi- j' tion and then turned loose w.th a muzzle on, t to perish to death. The object iu view was ti good and patriotic, but it was followed up " with less energy by the originators, than ^ any movement that we know of. JSouie of the counties that wont into tlie movement In good faith, when they have seen the indif- 4 Terence of the leaders, have repudiated their own nclions in disgust. They are not ( to be blamed, they wore like a good i many of us newspaper men, they thought the meu were in earnest. And now they feel no doubt like the fellow win wee told to stand on j the head of a barrel. tLcy sood, lut found 1 themselves'in a hole.' 1 r A novel contest is g in* on between two , men in Chicago now in a little room at the s Illinois Club. Two noted fioaiciers, Uos- s well G. Ilorr, an editorial writer for the New York Tribune, and W. II. llarvey of v Huinurui "uj;u o rintiucini ocnooi arc in the midst of a spirited debate on the c finance question; the former standing for gold standard and the latter for free coinage .V The debate will occupy the evenings of eight j days each speaker being allowed ten minutes in which to make a statement aud his c opponent the sime time for reply. Etch j speaker thus hue several speeches eve ry t evening. t Mr. Harvey a book, "Coin's Financial 11 School" fell like a bimb in the camp of the monometalist and they have never suEftcient- j ly recovered from the first shock to answer it, if indeed there was nay answer. Dy the 1 almost unprecedented sales it also made a fortune for the author. We notice thai the lectures are copyrighted and will be published in book form, and we have no doubt hut that the sale of the book is tho tin in object of Ibe contest. MANAGERS OF ELECTION.
