Questions for Clubs.


Mr.. E"lroR AS find but few persons have
m"turely considered the proposed plan Of nom-
mating candidates for Office, by primary elec-
tion, allow me to suggest that each club discuss
few probable results Of the system. All are
anxious TO have the nominations made to suit
the people, and am particularly anxious that
thc.people should make the nominations.
The questions with me arc, will majority oi
the people be more likely to make nominations
through primary elections than by the old con-
vention system; and further, will a primary
election be more likely to give us better candi-
dates than o Convention.
Suppose, for instance, tho primary system is
adopted and the man receiving majority OF
the votes be declared the candidate of the party.
Now, let us see how it might work. We will
say there are 5-candidates for an office, (from
appearances there will be ten for each and 2, 200
primary vstes polled one candidate gets 500
another 400, and the remaining LOO votes are
divided among the remaining three. Ne one
has q majority, nor has the two highest com
bined received majority, but they belong to
the two largest townships or clubs. and by the
rules, only the two receiving the highest vote can
be voted for at the second election. Now, sur :
pose the one receiving the 400 votes At the
first election, should receive . majority q, the
second, would the friends Of the other four can-
Sidates be satisfied that there was no log.rollng,
wire-pullipg corruption, &C.. and, in fact,
would the ssndidatebe any more the real choice
Of ths people than IL he had been nominated
by . convention.
Again, IL the plurality systematic man get.
ting the highest vote-is adopted, and the man
who receives the 500 votes be declared the can
didate, would he be the choice Of the people,
and could You ayk the other 1900 voters to ac-
cept him rs their choice?
have q few more questions for the clubs to
discuss. These will do for the next meeting.
NO CANDIDATE

Religious Services.

Religious Services.
For two weeks past series Of very interest.
ing religious meetings have been held daily In
the Methodist Church Of this town, st which
much religious feeling has been manifested.
The revival was commenced by Rev. -
Campbell, Pastor Of the Church. Last week,
Rev: J. T. Wightman. D. D., Pastor of Wash
ington Street Church, Columbia, came TO his as
sistance and preached number Of powerful and
effective sermons, causing great seriousness in
the minds Of the congregations, and awaking
many TO sense Of their danger in continuing
in sin. DR.. Wightman left here last Saturday,
but Rev. Carlisle, of spartanburg, assumed
the work on Monday and delivered very sable
sermons every day up to Wednesday night,
when the meeting was closed. Ten personsAave
been added TO the church, and it is hoped that
tho seeds sown at the meeting will contipae to
bring forth more fruit, as many are under seri.
Gus convictions.

Voluntarily gave expression to their delight and
surprise at the exquisite taste displayed, the
sJpple dimensions aud general arrangements Of

Before the performances commenced Mr.. Cra-
(mef came before the audience and exhibited the
beautiful scenery, describing tho dramatic repre-
Mutations in which each scene can be appropri-
$ely used. The "drop curtain" represents the
stcond Of Coles four celebrated pictures Of
'fhe voyage of lfe," and is as handsome o
stftain as we ever saw, even in the largest the
ares of the country.
Fhc scenery was the work of Mr. Eugene
Gamer, of Columbia, and confirms the repu,a.
Ss t1sssrs IL the country.
THE HALL
1920 feet long, by 35 feet wide, and 22 feet to
comb Of the roof. The room is open to the
roof, with heavy girders and braces, so scien-
tihcally arranged as to make secure and safe the
heavy ire-proof slate roof. The reof, from the
M is lined with thick panelled papering and
deach panel is largo picture representing
stsfdary. Windows on either side and in the
frsht, give ample ventilation.
u Beneath the hall is o large store room of the

TIE BUILDING
Is Of brick, with o rock foundation, all laid in
'tsssest cement mortar, making it one of the
most solid and substantial buildings in the
State: We, with number of other persons
have noticed particularly that there is not tho
least jar or vibration of the floor of the Hall by
persons walking over it either singly or in any
numbers. In our opinion tho building does
great credit to every person engaged in its cree
ton, from the Architect, who is Mr.. Nicholson
,him,slf tp Mr.. L. A. Lyman, the bricklayer
andMr. P. I. Lemaster, the Carpenter. The
latter gentlemen have certainly proved them.
