THE POLLS.

On next Tuesday the polls will be
opened at 6 o'clock a. m. and closed at
o'clock p. m. We urge upon Democratic
voters the necessity of being at the polls
when opened and remaining until they
are closed. More can be accomplished
in swelling our majorities on the day of
election with the colored people than at
any previous time. Apathy on the part
of the people will assuredly lead to di-
minished majorities in this County, and
have depressing influence on the DEM
ocratic cause throughout the State, and
lead to future complications which may
prove most disastrous. A hearty sup
port of the ticket, the whole ticket, aUithout
any scratching, is the most unmistakahle
sentence of condemnation which the peo-
pie Of the Comfy can pass upon all In
dependents and disorganizers. Every
name scratched from the ticket encour-
ages Independents, tends to the disor-
ganization of the party, and plays into
the hands of the Radicals. At the next
election we vote not for men but for
principle; not for our choice between
Democrats but for Democrats as opposed
to Radicals.
The Anderson intelligencer. [volume] (Anderson Court House, S.C.) 1860-1914, 1878-10-31
NEXT TUESDAY.

Every citizen of the State owes it to
himself and posterity to give nert Tues
day to the State and the cause of good
government. All work should be sus-
pended, and each one feel that the sue
cess of Democratic principles depended
upon his vote being cast and his personal
exertions at the polls. Let no one re-
main at home. The ballot box is the
palladium of liberty, and our only hope
Of an intelligent and honest admistration
Of the State and Federal governments.
The election of cur State, Congressional
and County tickets by bare majority is
not enough, they should be so large as
to overwhelm the Radicals, and to teach
all Independents that when the Democ-
racy speak through their conventions and
primary elections, it is the voice of the
party and not of faction, and that those
who do not heed it will be swept before
the popular indignation as chaff before
the whirlwind.

AN OPPORTUNITY.

The coiored people Of the State have
now an opportunity to prove that they
have no ill-feeling towards the whites,
and do not propose to array themselves
as a race in antagonism with them. The
Democrats have for two years given them
an honest and economical administration
of the government, protected them in all
their rights of person and property, and
by the equal and faithful administration
of the laws secured them the same pro-
lection as is extended to the whites.
This protection was not secured to them
by the corrupt government of Scott,
Moses and Chamberlain. The colored
people know that their taxes are much
less under Democratic rule than they
were under Radical domination; that
their rights are better secured to them by
Gov. Hampton than they were by the
Radicals, and that the relations between
IllC EdCSS are uOW ulOIc udEllOillUuS lNdli
ut any time since the war, and knowing
all this they must feel it duty TO vote
at the coming election the Democratic
ticket, and secure n continuation Of the
government which has brought peace to
the State and absolute protection to
them. 1t is not only their duty to vote
the Democratic ticket, but it is their
highest interest, for if they now array
themselves against the whites they may
be assured that they will bring upon
themselves the future evils of bad gov
ernment from which they have just es-
capped. The colored people have now an
opportunity of showing to the world
their appreciation of honest and upright
rulers, and their adherence and con-
demnation Of corrupt, bad, theiving lead
ers. They should now cast off their bad
leaders, and make friends with those
with whom they are identified in in
tereSt.

The difficulty which existed in Hamp-
ton County, growing out of the candidacy
of Maj. Warren and Col. Moole for the
State Senate, and which at one time
threatened to divide the Democracy of
that County and insure o Radical sue
cess, has been happily adjusted, the
Democrats reunited and their success
rendered certain. Maj. Warren with
drew from the contest, leaving Col.
Moore the uudisputed Democratic can
didate for the Senate. Maj. Warren not
only withdrew from the contest to pre-
vent division in the party, but now to
insure the success of his party warmly
advocates the election of his opponent.
By this action he has made self subser-

be attained but perpetuated.

We notice in the Neacs and Courier
that Hugh Kane, one of the notorious
Ladd murderers, was arrested in Charles
ton on last Saturday for fighting in the
City Hall Square. and taken to the
Guard House, where he was released on
bail. It will be recollected that Kane
was wrested by the United States au-
thorities from the State, and taken into
custody by the United States Marshal.
Kane is charged with murder, he has
had no trial, and yet he is at liberty and
found fighting in the streets of Charles
ton. Redmond, the alleged traticker in
ardent spirits is, without trial, declared
an outlaw, and Kane, one of the alleged
murderers of young Ladd is, without
trial, set at liberty, and this by one Of
the best governments the world ever saw.
The contrast does not speak we'll for the
administration of law and justice by the
Federal authorities.

- The indications are favorable for
the early demise of Yellow Jack, and
that week or two more will relieve the
country of his hated presence. The Wis
itation of this year has been the most
fatal in its effects of any ever known in
this country, the total number of deaths
reaching probably over twelve thousand.
With a little care and prudence on the
part of refugees the worst time is over,
and we hope they may soon be able safe
" to return and build up their prostrat-
cd business and desolated homes.

been burned. If the brush band is too

EUROPEAN COMPLICATIONS.

If the dispatches from Vienna pub
lished in the London Standard are true,
the treaty of Berlin has utterly failed to
settle the questions which have agitated
and threatened the peace of Europe for
the last half century, and Europe stands
to-day upon the verge of great war in
which will be involved the principal
powers as well as certain Asiatic States.
That Russia failed to receive a recon-
pence for her outlay in money and loss
of life in her war with Turkey by the
treaty of Berlin is true, and other Euro
pean powers, especially England, recog-
nizing this and the immense resources of
Russia, fear that Russia has ulterior de-
signs, and that nothing less than the
stipulations of the treaty of San Stefano
will satisfy her. The political situation
in Southern Europe and Asia at present
threaten the peace of nations. England
has collected a large force south of
Afghanistan and Russia or the north.
England designs the conquest of the
country, and it is expected that she will
soon declare war against the Ameer and
take possession of the Southern part of
the country; if SO, Russia will take the
Northern part, and these two armies
soon come in conflict. Can the conflict
be confined to Asia or will it involve the
whole of Europe? The situation in Eu-
rope is as critical as in Asia. Russia re-
fuses to evacuate the Dobruscha, andsis
collecting an immense force on the lines,
especially the strong strategical points,
of the late conflict. The evident design
of Austria, Turkey and England is to
circumscribe the power of Russia and de-
prive her of the fruits of her costly and
hard won victories. 1t can scarcely be
expected that such a power as Russia
will submit to this, and if she fails to Sc
cure by diplomacy the fruits of the late
war to which her victories entitled her,
it is not at all improbable that she will
again appeal to arms to secure her just
rights of conquest. 1t is to be hoped that
the conflicting interests of European
powers will be peaceably adjusted, but if
war should come it will result from the
ambition of Austria, the faithlessness OF
the Turks, and the intrigues of England.

There is decided disposition in some
counties in the State to fight the Demo
cratic party, and the insidious and dan
gerous policy of running Independent
candidates has been resorted to, by the
enemies of good government, to accom-
plish their desire to destroy the Demo-
cratic party and promote their own in
terests at the expense of the public good.
This has induced the nomination of In
dependent candidates in Charleston and
elsewhere, which, if allowed to 60 un-
checked, will result in the speedy de-
struction Of Democratic supremacy.
Our people cannot now allow Iadepen-
dents to succeed. Even if they should
be our best friends, we should frown them
down and scorn them. All true Demo-
Gratis of South Carolina should hold in
contempt and disrepute any man who for
the sake of Office would antagonize the
party of good government by running as
an Independent candidate now.

A Raid on williamsburg.

EINGsTREE, S. c., October 25.
The outrageous stories Of Swails at
Washington are producing some fruit.
Yesterday District Attorney Ncrthrop,
with United States Commissioner p. L.
Wiggin and two constables, appeared in
our little town to look after the rights
and wrongs of the great bribe-taker.
During yesterday and to-day the fol-
lowing persons have been arrested: g.
P. Nelson, T. NJ. Gilland, J. S. Hey
ward, J. G. Smith, R. D. Norton, Henry
Davis, G. j. Graham, w. d. Fitch,
Hugh Cooper, DR.. S. d. NJ. Byrd, John
Frierson, DR.. j. S. James, VIM. NJ.
Kinder, w. J. Lee, P. w. Sessions and
j. A. Kelly.
Under advice an examination was
waived, and bonds were given by all the
parties for their appearance at the next
term of the United States Court.
The afidavits we're mostly made by
ignorant negroes and the charges are all
under sections 5,5OS and $500. The
most of the persons arrested are charged
with interfering with Swails in his ad-
vocacy of Rainey for Congress at the
White Oak meeting, although Swails
himself says it was only club meeting
not called to advocate any ones election.
The others are arrested for giving Swails
notice to leave the place.
We are not scared worth cent. The
Democracy of Williamsburg mean to
carry this election. No odds are asked
of Swails. Every one speaks in the
kindest terms of District Attorney Nor
throp and Judge Wiggin for the respect
full manner in which they have dis
charged a disagreeable and unpleasant
duty. But as neither of the sections OF
the Revised Statutes can possibly he tor
tured into covering the alleged offences
against Swails, it is not expected that
their prosecution will ever be heard oil

The arrest of citizens of this State by
the United States for alleged violations
of Sections 5,5OS and $500 of the United
States Statutes still continues. Sixteen
citizens of Williamsburg were arrested
last week upon af6davits made mostly by
ignorant negroes, carried before a United
States Commissioner and bailed for their
appearance at the next term of the Uni
ted States Court. The objects of these
arrests, if heretofore concealed, is now
apparent. 1t is to influence che present
election in Sumter, Williamsburg and
other counties, and to revive in the
North hatred and ill-will to the South
by the report of Southern outrages, and
thus influence the election in Northern
States, and pave the way for the Presi-
DENTAL election in 1880. The difficulty
is that bad men, such as Lee of Sumter,
aud Swails of Williamsburg, go to Wash
ington and the administration lend an
ear to their outrageous stories, and act
upon them as if true; that false afi-
davits are made by ignorant negroes in
culpating those whom they dislike, and
all this prompted by corrupt party lead
ers for party purposes. The Courts of
the State protect the humblest negro in
his rights, and if those rights were as
sailed in Sumter and Williamsburg as
alleged, these Courts afford ample pro-
lection and redress; but the United
States Court was resorted to for the SIM
pie reason that protection and redress
was not the object in view, but political
capital for Northern climes where the
truth could not be ascertained.
