The news and herald. (Winnsboro, S.C.) 1877-1900, 1878-08-27

services arc Seldom hold hero. A
few miles farther on is the Long.
Run Baptist church, one of tho
best specimens Of architecture in
the county.
We reaahcd Mr.. John D. Stanton's
in time for dinner, our appetites
having boen right sharply whotted
by the jolting, and wcro enabled to
do the fullest justice to tho abund-
ant repast. We will hero remark,
e~posso'et, that if any one wishes to
learn dot or two about making
rolls, wo can tell them where theY
can learn something to their advan-
tago: Without disparaging other
admirable housewives wo can truth
fully say we do not remember seoing
exactly such in q long time, whilo a
gentleman ola still wider range of
experience avers that they are not
to bo beat in tho Stato of Virginia,
provcrbial for rolls and buckWhoat
cakos. Noar Mr.. Stanton's' house
spring bubbles out of tho solid
rock, after drinking from WHICH
ono feels that "no ice neod apply"
But wo started out to discuss
politics, not gastronomy. After
dinncr wo set out for Shiloh church,
where tho club was to meet. A
goodly number of tho members wore
present. DR.. John Wallace, tho
president, called the club to order,
and after q few remarks showing
that tho contest is not simply politi-
cal, but ono for sclf-prescrvation, ho
invited Captain Gaillurd to address
tho club. Captain Gaillard COM
plled III an earnest talk, reviewing
tho course Of tho Democratic ad~
ministraGon, the reforms it has
wrought and tho absolute necessity
of keeping the State in the control
of the Democracy Ho urged the
club to pay no heed to side issues
iii tho midst of the great contest ior
freedom. Hc showed, by a COM
parison of expenditures, that the
government is now run moro cheap
ly than it was before tho war, and
said that still greater reductions
could bo made. He hoped that no
one would bo disappointed because
two years of Democratic rule had
not made tho State rich. All q
government can do is to secure to
ovory man tho fruits of his labor,
lie concluded with thanks to his
hearers for thoir attention.
Nlr. Davis was then invited to
speak, and made some remarks on
the general nature of the contest,
the election in South Carolina being
but part of the struggle between
opposing principles. Ho urged
unanimity, and predicted success.
DR.. Wallace then, after calls, made
some forcible and humorous rcmnrks
He treated tho question ethnologi-
cally, and showed that nothing
could be expected from black domio
naticn but utser ruin. We had been
cheated out of the government, and
must get it back. He was interrupted
with frequent applause. It was re-
solved that the club should meet on
Saturday, the 7th prox., at 3 o'clock,
p. m. The president hoped that
tho club would procure red shirts
for the campaign.
After adjournment there was q
general conversation on politics.
We found tho club in the healthiast
condition. Tho members have no
candidates of their own, but express
Il determination to vote for the best
III r., regardless ofporsonal considers
ations. They want good dolega-
ton, and will do all they can to Sc
cure one. We came deliberately to
tho conclusion that disafrected
Democrats and straightout Radicals
will alike have rough tirue if they
tackle Jenkinsvillo.
After this wo returned to tho
Boro. On our way we noticed one
thing-that though the road wa sail
up hill going over, it seemed to be
all up hill coming back. The long
trip was, however, made without
mishap, and nothing occurred to
mar tho pleasures of the occasion.
