To Democratic Clubs of Anderson Go.
I have been solicited recently by some
friends to allow my name to be used at the
Primary Election for County Treasurer.
To those friends I would say that have
never sought Office of any kind, but will
give my consent for my name to be used at
our primary election for County Treasurer.
It may not be improper for ME say that
was born in South Carolina, and have
been q citizen of Anderson County for
twenty-one years, and have supported no
other party than the Democratic since Twas
old enough to vote; neither do ] ever ex-
pect to vote or support any other party so
long as I know that party is the honest
party. If I should be your choice at the
primary election and receive the appoint
ment to the Office by Cow Wade Hamp-
ton, will give such bond and security as
will allow me to visit every box in the
County, and collect the taxes as in former
times, which will give our taxpayers much
less trouble than the present system.
Should the voters see proper to select one
more competent and werthy, I will cheer
fully submit.

met at Anderson on last Saturday to'con-
slider the question of County nomina-

very little interest manifested in the

discussion was had between Hon. j. s.
Murray for the Democrats and Senator
Cochran for the Republicans, which evil

of the Convention AS we'll as Of the by

our citizens that much good was accom-
,,,ished for the Democracy. Mr.. Cochran
was kept upon the stool of explanation,
and declared that he would not support
Elliott. Cardozo nor Carpenter. The
convention declined to make any County
nominations, and motion to endorse
the State Republican ticket was laid
unon the table by the Convention itself
