. HE ,PoLITICAn OUTLOOK IN SOUTH
CAROLINA, AS REVIEWED DY Rev. R., H.
OA1N.-H the present movement among
the clansmen of the different parties
means anything, there is serious shuf-
ding in the camps. The organization of
various orders indicates qualification
OF the strength of Republicans in this
State. The calls for conventions of the
republicans, and the renewal of fealty
among the Demooracy-the policy OF
oonoiiiation, which is the declared policy
Tor tho future among them as toward tho
colored element-shows which way the
wind is blowing. The wide-sprea. dis
content among Republicans with tho
present administration, and the onor-
nous outlay OF moneys to meet the re-
qulrements OF Government, which mecca
states additional taxation, calls loudly
on the people to consider their best in.
terests IN the coming campaign, whether
there should be- aay change made in
their present law makers and those who
direct the affairs of State. There are
some facts which cannot be mistaken L Y
the most careless observcr-namely, thut
extravaganza has been the ruin of the
hnances of this State. Tho needless ex-
penditures for military organizations,
TOR maintaining hundreds of needless
officers in the State. which were created
to make good soft place for some hang
ers-on to the Republican party, who
could not render any practical good to
the country. for the payment of hun
dreds of attaches to the General Assem-
bly,, who are but burden to the tax
payers, by the needless expenditures for
committee rooms, wines, brnndies aud
whiskey, for avery room, for clerks to
committees, and thousand and Que
other needless extravagances. All these
things the people should inquire into.
The contest will doubtless be between
r. Z. Scott, F. J. Moses, j. L. Orr,
Reuben Tomlinson, Judge Melton, at.
torney. General d. II. Chamberlain, d.
I. Corbin or J. l. Neagle. These are
the most prominent now.
