I respectfully inform the frierds and
readers of this journal ttat have taken
charge Of its editorial columns, and
with the assistance Of the versatile
mind Of Mr.. J. Fielder Meyers, hopo to
make the Orangeburg NEWS lively
and readable paper.
The political course of tho NEWS
will be but little changed. The grand
principles of the Republican party vii
be our watchwotd, and in cur efforts
towards good and honest government, /,
NC will hold that the Republicans Of
this State are quite able, and intenl, %
take caro- Of themselves, and pluck by
Tho roots all tarcs that have fastened
and grown up from crevices overlooked
too long By generosity and forbearance.
To those who differ with us in politics,
We say, come and reason with us, laying
aside all prejudice and lcngings for the
"fattlings" of the land, and We will "do
you good" by convincing you that We can
sweep our own house without being told
how to do it, by those who live on the
street. We have learnt to believe in
that good old locofoco principle limited
by Andrew Jackson, while President Of
these United States "to the victor
belongs the spoils." But We wont so so
far as to say Delenda est Cartilage.
70 our enemies, and certain leaders,
50 called, of the Republican party,
-four gloves are off" To tho former We
say, "Lay on McDuff and d-nd be he
who first cries hold, enough" The
latter we expect to fight out of position,
out of the State, OF into the penitentiary

make our bow to the public.

There never was an era in the history
OF this country. When education COM

by different municipal governments, and
in fact by our own State authorities for

dicates general interest and deep CON

should enlarge our views upon this

Education which looks only to the mind,

At the last election in 1872 tic Re.
publican majority, properly speaking,
WAS about 10000, Because there were
several thousand Republican votes car
risd away by the "bolt." Boiling is
played out in our ranks. The masterly
management Of the party at that timo
by Gen. r. B. Elliott, in ralizing
the Democratic party and dem oralizing
the bolt, gives positive proof that, under
his experienced control, as chair nan of
%tha Executive Committee, any attempt
at bolt will only consign those who
enter it' to political grave. From
,emigration'to other States, and immigra-
tion from Georgia, North Caroina and
Virginia, together with conversion from
tho Democratic ranks, tho probable
majority this fall will be about $4,000
There is nU'way to beat that majority,

BEEN pretty chcckerod, il is true but
no one will say that it has not always
been up to the times Whatever of
sharpness our contemporary has dis

mike its success sure. Once upon
high and lofty plane of journalism, now
upon slip shod rickety road, and then
again reeling all about, it is to be
wondered that she hasn't given Up the
ghost long ago. But no, tho News
takes high ground, and says her editors
may die, but she "ain't gwineto."

For some weeks the Republicans OF

in 1865, scornfully and Indignantly re-
