The Bonanza Bill and the Phwnix.

The Bonanza bill is an acknowl.
sdged fraud, spurued by decent mon
# ali parties. Wo know Of but one
newspaper in the State that gives it
iny comfort whatever. That papc,
IS the Ph0aix: the so called conser.
vativo organ at the capital. Al FIRST
the PLnaix denounced the bill as
! swindlc. But. like Paul on the
road to Damascus it has seen light.
1t now takas somewhat "charitablc
view" of this first class fraud, and,
.s has been frequently the case, is
compelled to offer scmo explanation
or its Inconsistency. The Pl Unix
has been putting forward this bill
rather mildly, in its local columns.
Let it come out boldly either for OF,
1gainst the bill, SO that its position
'on be easily seen. We offer this
'dvlco to our contemporary, not to
ouoh tho unclcan thing, as any
fhliation with it will end in disaster,
The honest people of South Carolina
're wide awake now, aud will no.,

njuLcti1n has been granted b,
Judge Bryan in the u. S. district court

Connecticut.

Partial returns from Connecticut
low another democratic victory. The
result has been looked for with great
interest by politicians, and by the
southern people who wish to kn, W
whether tho north is still infamt d
with hatred, or whether tho olive
branch will be extended. 1t has
been claimed that tho democratic
victories in November were accidcn-
tai and that the tidal wave is rcccl.
ing. AS Connecticut first last year
manifested the change in public
sentiment, so it was anxiously watch.
Cd this year, as showing tho scnti ;.
ment of tho people in 1875. Both
parties made strenuous efforts to
carry tho election. Speaker Blaine
and other radical luminaries stump.
cd the State, in support Of q platform
ldVocating a third torn and denounc.
ing the democrats and the South.
Governor Ingcrscll was renominatcd
by tho democrats, and Greene, who
fred 100 guns in honor Of Grant aud
Sheridan was made standard bearer
OF radicalism. The present congress.
men, Barnum, democrat, and llawlcy
Kellogg and Starkweathcr, rcpubl.
cans, wero renominated. llawlcy
during tho canvass denounced the
third term and incurred thereby the
hostility of Grant. He has been do.
foatod by Landers tho democratic
candidate by several hundred votes.
Barnum has been reelected, and so
has Phelps, the libora republican
nominee of the democrats. Stark.
weather was opposed by Judge Fos~
tor, anoth or liberal republican. The
result in this district is still uncer-
tain. Tho democrats have elected
three congressman and probably the
fourth. 1pgersoll's majority is os.i.
mated at probably two thousand,
against 1919 Inst year. The legisla
ure will be democratic by q reduced
majority. The result thus far is en-. |
ouraging to tho democrats and gives
enewcd assurance of victory in
876.
