In yonr last issuo appeared n
card from Col. j. B. Davis, defining
his position with reference to the
election which it is understood is to
be held before II great while for clerk
Of the court. Presuming that the
subject matter thereof is before the
public for fair and Legitimate criti..
cism, I ask small space in your
columns, not for the purpose Of
attacking Colonel Davis candidacy,
but to express the utter ipconsisten>
cy of his present position as defined
by himself, as we'll as to show the
fallacy Of tho reasoning by which he
arrives at his conclusions. His in
consistency lies in the attompt to
forestall the Judgment of nominat-
ing convention of the party, it being
we'll known that IL county conven~
tion will bo called to place in nomi>
nation suitable person for clerk.
1t is equally well known that none
other than the nominee of this con-
vention will receive the support Of.
the Democratic party But Colonel
Davis assumes to hold over as the
Democratic nominee, because two
gentlemen associated with him on
the county ticket last fall have re-
Gently been elected to represent
the county in the Legislature.
Does not Colonel Davis know that
undcr tho call Of the county chairs
man the executive committee came
together, and entered into regular
ballot for two representatives, re-
in the unanimous selection
of Alessrs. Gail,ard and Brice. Tt
was competent for tie committee to
have nominated any other two gen
tlemcn, had it boon deemed best to
do SO. Messrs Qaillard and Brice
did not claim the nomination by
virtue of the action Of the conven
ton last summer, but allowed their
names to go before the committed
without reference to their previous
candidacy. The writer has high
personal regard for Colonel Davis,
but insists that his position as
enunciated in the card referred to
is wholly untenable. If he aspires
to the office of clerk of court, let
him have his name submitted to
nominating convention, in common
with others, and I have no doubt
but that it will receive due con.
eiderstion.

Lioutenant~ Governor Simpson

eral important measures camo up.
Tho Charleston municipal election

Cochran, of Anderson, while the bill
toolocta Judge for tho fifth circuit fail
ed to pass, the vote standing sixteen
to sixteen. This WAS very unfortu~
nate. Colonel SIMPSONS friends
attribute tho accident to the fact
that the Democratic Senators arc
so uncertain that he could not fore
tell that casting vote would be
necessary. If this be true, it speaks
very badly for tho Democratic
Senators. We regret, however, that
tho Lieutenant Governor was ab-
sent. In the present crisis, his
place is always in the Senate. What
urgency there might have been for
his absence, we do not know. We
feel assured that his excuse was
good, for up to this time Governor
Simpson has not made q mistake,
and his tirmness rs presiding officer
of the Senate has been the subject
of admiration.

NOTWITHSTANDING all the deplorable
consequences OF the strike and the I'M
fair efforts to turn the tide OF feeling by
inaammatory exaggeration of these
consequences, the strikers are winding II
up In q way to retain the preponderance
of public sympathy, and if the railroads
are wise, they will not insist on the cut
which caused the strike. The regal
salaries and the splendor OF their Official
organization, the population and dishon-
esty OF their management, and the sums
they pay to corrupt legislatures and TO
maintain expensive lobbies, are not al
together a sealed book to the public, and
the facility with which they put the
rates of transportation up or down TO
further the schemes OF The managing
rings, incline the people to hold them
rather than the strikers responsible for
the stoppage Of commerce and all the
other consequences OF the strike. The
public has been made aware OF the
hitherto in conceivable ruin and suffering
which might be brought about by the
simple refusal OF all the workingmen in
the country 10 work for the wages thai
are offered. and the management, botl
in politics and business, which is en-
gagged in bringing the country to that
pass, will be regarded with less tolera-
ton in the future than in the past.

of wages m the factory and shop and

next result was diminished yield Of
