General !. w. Gray.

We notice that General J. W. Gray
has been nominated by his friends for
re-olcction to the Legislature from
Greenville County. We have had
the honor Of serving for the last two
years in that body with tho General,
and we do not mean any fulsom praise
when We say that tho State did not
have a more faithful, energetic and
accomplished Representative than he.
We had tho pleasure Of serving with
him on the bond compromise commit
tee, and was there, moro thaa ut any
other time, impressed with his great
, adherence to principle and what he
conceived to be tho best interest of
the State. We have no desire to
u4eddle with Greenvillc affairs, or at
tempt to dictate to them who they
should send to the Legislature, but
we may be pardonod for saying that,
for the interest of the State, we hope
to see mon of his stamp-honorable,
independent, in thought and chivla.

ens @. II. Democratic Club met this
day. ID. F. Bradley, President, in'the
Chair.
N~ The proceedings of the last meeting
wore read and confirmed.
Maj, J. J. Lewis offered tho follow
ing preamble and resolutions. which
was unanimously adopted: 49,:
WHEREAS, it is commonly roported
that the colored voters OF this County
arc laboring under the impression that
any voter has right to attach himself
TO a Democratic Club and vote in the
primary election if hes votos for o.
Democrat, but that it would not be
binding upon them to vote for the
regular nominees of the Democratic
party at the general election, and that
they woult be at liberty to voto for
whomsoever they pleased. Therefore
be it ....
ReSolUed, That it is the sense Of tho
Pickens @. Ii. Club that according to
our constitution, which requires q
plodgc from every man joining it, that
ho will support all the nominees of the
party, National, State and County.
no man is allowed to voto in the pri>
mary election who does not absolute~
" bind himself to stand to the reuuirc-
ments OF our constitution in this re-
spect, and who does not join the club
without any reservation whatever Be
it further
;ReSolued, That the managers of the
primary election of this club be, and
they arc hereby, instructed not to ro-
celve tho vote Of any man who is not
known to be u Democrat and thor
oughly in accord with the party and
pledged to support all its nominees at
the general election,
ResotUed further, That each club in
this County be, and they are hereby,
requested to give their managers the
same instructions as arc here given to
the managers Of this club, and that
the action of this club, bo brought to
the notice of the County Executive
Committee at it's next meeting, with
the request that it take action to car
ry into effect these resolutions.
On motion Of Capt. J. A. Griffin, the
club went into an election for mana
gers to conduct the primary electicn
at this place, and, on motion Of Mr..
w. w. Boyd, Messrs. J. f. Folgor, G.

Total,

The resolutions adopted by the
Democratic club ut this place at it's
last meeting is, we think, entirely
right. This is contest for party nom,
ination and mono but Democrats have
Il right TO participate. Any man who
~ DemOcra can DIN and vote, bnt
if Republicans arc allowed to vote, and
nominees of the party, we had bottcr
disband and have no party orgnniza-
ton at all. Let overy club in the
County follow the example Of the
club at this place, and thereby pre-,
serve the organization and unity of
the party. Tho resolutions explain
themselves and arc published in this
issue, in the proceedings Of the club
meeting, and we hope every Demo-
crat will read them. The object is
not to exclude any Democrat, but to
confne the voting for nominees of tho
party to the ranks Of the party. The
Democrats are CO. tainIy abIo to mako
their nominations without the asss-'
tance Of the Republicans.
WASHINGTON, AugusE11.-The gov
ernmont has nearly completed the
necessary arrangements for the trial
of the revenue cases in South Caro-
lima, at term of the United States
Circuit Court to be held early IN. Sep
tember, at which Chief Justice Waite
and Judge Bond will occupy the bench
together. The Federal authorities
here are impressed with the import-
ance af those cases and the issues in
volved, and will have unusually
Strong counsel to conduct the cases,
and to maintain the right Of tho Gen.
eral Government TO enforce its laws
in the several States without tho in~
terfereuce of State authorities. Ex-
Secretary B. H. Bristow has been in
vited to take charge of the cases in
behalf OF the government, and has
signfed his readiness to do so.
Ho will be allowed to select such
assistance as'he may desire, and the
probability is that other prominent
lawyers will be asked to take part in
the cases. 1t is known here that the
State authorities Of South Carolina
will contest to their utmost ability the
position taken by the Federal Gov
ernmont, and maintain that the State
alone have Jurisdiction of such cuses as
the present ones. Eminent counsel
will be employed to aid the Attorney
General OF tho State, and the cases
arc regarded by leading lawyers as Of
the most important that haYe arisen
for years. 1t is expected that the
cases will be carried up to tho Su-
preme Court of the United States for
final decision, no matter how they may
be decided by the Circuit Court.
