The Rush for serhe News,

Everybody wanted TIE NEWS yesterday,
with its full and lively account OF the cleo
ton and its result. Anticipating an unusual
demand, our fast presses were kept running
until they threw Off much the largest edition
OF TIE News ever printed. since the paper
was established. And yet this extraordi-
nary edition was exhausted early in the fore
noon, and hundreds Of late applicants were
disappointed in their effort to obtain copy.
The TR1aWEEKLY NEWS, issued this morn
ing, will contain all the election news given
in yesterdays issue, and may be had'at our
counting-room.

Machinc-Made Murders.

A correspondent of the Yorkville En-
Quirer throws serious doubts upon the disin-
terestedness Of VIM. T. Owens, whose Ku-
Klux testimony delighted the Radical Con-
gressmen. Before the arrival OF the COM
mittee, according to the correspondent,
Owens said he could make some thousands
Of dollars ny divulging the names of per-
sons who carried oHthe State arms last
winter, although, as he admitted, he really
knew nothing about it. The correspondent
firmly believes that Owens was paid for his
work, and has carried off the thirty pieces
OF silver to more Northern cline.

A Lesson to "The Party"

The Republican OF last evening has an
elaborate editorial review Of ths'Municipal
canvass aud its result-some extended e1-
'tyacts from which We reproduce in to-lssy's
NEWS. The tone OF the article is manly, and
the views advanced are, in the main, SEN
sible. The trouble is that the mass, what is
called the Republican party OF South Caro-
lima, has neither the intelligence to compre-
hend, nor the wisdom to heed, the lesson so
earnestly enforced. Ignorance, corruption,
and an invincible prejudice against every
thing like honor, fairness and respectability
in public affairs, are the main pillars upon
which '.The Party" structure rests.

The Eject.

Inquiries for city stock on Broad street,
yesterday, were met by the significant an
nouncement that there was "None for sale !"
Holders, after this, will want bidders to
mention very different figures from those
that have been ruling lately, if they serious
ly mean to trade. In fact, every depart
.ment of business in Charleston feels a fresh
impulse, in anticipation of the coming
era of public order, confidence and pros
perity.

1Eron the. Phoenix Of yesterday.l

TFron the Phoenix Of yesterday
From our telegraphic report it will be seen
that the Radical ticket has been defeated in the
late municipal election. Thus Charleston has
been relieved from an odious political yoke. 1t
appears that the whites turned out bravely,
and with the aid of their colored allies, carried
the day. We congratulate The victers upon
the result, and hope that they will use their
victory so as to make it lasting.

formed conspiracy" to scratch" the col

Infamous charge to be utterly false, and that

He says tho last tight place he 20, into
was in the year 1916, during the Mexican

some OF our Government horses and
mules. Capt Pricc-a!tcrwards Gen.
Sterling Price-was in command of COM
pany OF United States volunteers. who
we're ever ready for n scout or a firht.
lie was ordered to make detail of twelve
OF his best men aud send them in search
OF the stolen property. Twelve choice and
well tried men were chosen. Then came
the query-who is able and wiling TO take
command OF this squad 1t must be some
man who can talk with the different In
dian tribes through which they may have
TO pass in pursuit Of the Mexicans.
Luckily Tor the squad, at this moment

the twelve brave men bid him welcome :;
their object stated and requesting him to
take command. Nothing suited Carson
better than this.
lie told Capt. Prico that he could follow

and to give himself no uncasincss, that he
would bring his twelve men back and not
lose n scalp.
The sequel shows how ho succeeded.
Tho second day out they struck t5e
trail; late in the evening they saw in the
distance large party Of Indians, and as
they were on friendly terms with the DIFF
ierent tribes Carson aud his band hurried
to ovcrtake them. hoping to gain some in
formation concerning the stock.
The Indians saw them approaching and
halted Tor them to come up. AS Carson
and his men cane higher, his keen owe
discovered that they were on the war-patb,
but knowing no fear, he rode up, and the
