Incndations by cur Representatives for

would be adjusted without further
complaint from the people. Such does
not seem 10 be the casc, aud we beg a
space in the columns Of your paper to
say a word in brhalfof the Democracy
Of this immediate section. There
seems To be Il screw loose some where
in our ranks. The voting population
Of Fairfield county were cooked and
primcd for Il primary election in

powers Of the great Democracy for

long in the field, and 10 Us because we
expected the matter To be decided by

We wish ourselves to be fairly un-
dcrsto1d in This matter. We do not
wish to wound the feelings Of any one,
and would say that We lave not the
slightest objection to any one Of the
reported appointccs. We know them
10 be gentlemen and good Democrats
but we do obicc, to the principle OF
appointment without the form of a
primary election, and we do hope that
in order to secure harmony, peace and
unity, his ENcrllrmcy the Governor and
the powers that be will reconsider the
action. if any has been taken, and let
the case be decided according to the
wishes ofthc people. We are not too
worn out with elections to stand a
lltilc rub in August, just to keep our
hand III for the great contest in 1880.
when we expect to stamp South Caro-
lima with a full Democratic seal.
We believe in the primary system,
and believe it to be the wrench to
tighten mp the loose screw, and since
candidates arc plentiful, and all of the
<Hmc party, let us have good old
fashioned race among ourselves, and
bury all this dissatisfaction and have
officers appointed by the will Of the
majority of the people. And let Us
enter the contest in 1880 with harmony
pcrvading our ranks, and with good
will towards all mankind, our enemies
included, provided they keep quiet
Such Il course will insure success.
Then, let us have peace. ......

"A Young woman, seventeen years
OF age, oil orphan and not many
friends, leaves her relatives in Pickcns
county on account Of some bad treat
mcnt, as she told some people along the
road other fntch journey, and is max
ing her way TO some relations in Spar
tanburg county, to see if she could live
among them in peace and do somcthiv
for an honest living. She travels ali
alone on foot in 4 neat, plain dress,
aud little bundle in her hand contain
ing her worldly goods, land rs she
, trudgcs her weary way along. stop
ping now and then for a drink of wa
ter, she relates her story of trouble to
strangers just like innocence itself will
tell round, unvarni,hcu tale and
ever! time the same. Arriving at the
gate of John Moore, not far from her
destination, she inquiries the way on to
her friends and asks for drink Of Wa
ter. She is persuaded by Moore to
come III the house and rartakc of his
hospitality. She eats dinner ut
Moorc's house, and then starts on her
way. Moore prepares to accompany
her and show her the way, but she de-
r'incS-shc prefers to go alone. Moore
insists. and goes with her in spite of
her rcmonstrancrs. lie starts off with
her, Is gone ali hour, perhaps, and re-
turns. Nothing is heard Of the strange
glrl, except from him, that he went
with her a short way and returned.
This was Thursday, the fifth day Of the
present MONTY. On Sunday following,
the mutilatcd body Off Young woman
was found near the road side, few
hundred yards from Moorc's house.
She had been shot in the breast. and
her throat cut from ear to ear. Her
dccaying body exhibited all the cvi-
dcnccs ofhaving been outraged and
then murdered. Suspicion at once
rested on John J. Moore, Il man Of
bad character. and who, it is thought,
had more to do in killing DR.. Young
last year than the convicted Rolph.
Eut it is not his bad character alone
which has brought him to the gallows
this morning, but from circumstances
50 strong and convincing as to leave
no doubt Of his guilt. First, he went
with the woman against her expressed
will. y gun or pistol was heard to
fire by some laborcrs near by. Moore
was seen by thcm going towards the
river just after, bareiootcd and with
out his hat. ~ handkerchief was found
near the dead body with the print of
'Ie young woman's teeth in it, and the
handkerchief is identified as Moorc's
handkerchief. "Oh, the handkerchief,
the handkcrchicf!' And then some
ear rings and other rjcwclry have been
found i'll MOorc's house, supposed to
be hers. and then last, but not least,

The spartanburg Lynching.

All accounts from the Spartanburg
lynching unite In tcstifying TO the
guilt Of the victim and the orderly de-
ncanor of his sclf.constitutcd cXccu-
TONERS. The crime was Il dreadful
one, far worse even than the cold
bloodcd murder Of II fellow man, and
no rctribution could be too quick or too
severe. There are some crimes that
the law cannot reach, and Moorc's was
one Of these. No scOundrrl of his
stamp should be suffered to live any
longer than ii takes to find rope to
hang him with. Once satisfied of his
guilt beyond q reosonable doubt, tic

community ought to do and will do

No Compromise,

Our report Of the contents Of the
letter addressed by Mr.. Solomon IIpas,
General Freight Agent of the Char
lotto, Columbia and Augusta Railroad
to the merchants Of Winnsboro con-
tanned slight error. Mr.. Haas did
state that new tariff would he an
nonnccd on the 10th OF July, but he
neglected to express the hope Ulal
we expressed for himD that it would
bo satisfactory. lie did say that the
taiinon cotton would be based on meas
urcncnt. However moderate The
charge, it will be estimated by meas
urcmcnt. There's the rub. This is
The whole gist Of the fight. The mcr-
chants contend that the estimate must
be by weight, while tho road insists
upon adopting the cubic foot as the
standard. 1t claims that the freight
on cotton has always been estimated
III this way; but this is denied. Up
TO few years ago, VIC are Informed,
bills were made ont on the basis of
weight. The total number Of pounds
shipped were divided by four hundred
and fifty, and the quoticnt was the
estimated number Of bales. But as
the limit allowed in the charter for
bulky articles would permit al cnor-
nous freight on cotton, the road has,
we presume since it became dangerous
10 violate the charter, sought loop
Shoic by which to escape from tho con-
sequences Of cXtortion.
What Mr.. Solomon Haas PROPOSES
to do on tho 10th of July is of course
buried in the uncommunicativc bosoms
OF tire railroad magnatcs. But in adj
vance, VIC will say that no concession
rs to the moro cost Of transportation
on u bale Of cotton will be satisfactory
MS long rs a vicious basis Of estimates
is persisted IN. Should the road put
the rate down to ten cents bale, by
measurement, the principle would re-
main tho same as before, aud should
be stcrnly combattcd. Any such re.
dnctlon would be q mere sngar-coatcd
pill for tho shippers, to invciglc them
into abandoning their case, with nc
assurance whatever that so soon as
the cotton season begins tho road will
mot increase tho tariff again. Much
better fight tho matter now, 50 as to
have a decision one way or tho othc,
