Hendricks on Garfield.

Thomas A. Hendricks made the
best speech of his life a few days
ago at indianapolis. In previous
speech he had made some very
grave charges against Garfield in
connection with the vote Of Louis
iaua in 1878 and the Electoral CO."
mission. The Indianapolis Joetn :,
the leading Republican paper of
Indiana, commenting on the speech,
said that if the charges made by
Hendricks were true Garfield was
q disgraced man, but if not true
Hendricks was disgraced. This
put the Ex-Governor on his mettle,
and the next day he addressed a
large public meeting and proved by
therecords of Congress every charge
he had made. He demanded that
the Journal should publish the
speech and sent that paper a copy,
but the Journal would rot publish
it. The inference is that the Jour-
nal was afraid Of the influence it
would have upon the masses. It
was one of the most edec5iEe cam
paign speeches ever delivered, and
has done the Democratic party of
Indiana a great deal of good.
The charges were that Garfield
in 1876 declared in the House of
Representatives that tho vote in
Louisiana should be thoroughly in-
vestigated that afterwards he went
to that State and assisted his party
in doctoring the returns for Hayes,
and that when he was put on the
electoral Commission" he voted
against going behind the returns OF
the Returning Board. The point
is, that having taken an active part
in canvassing the vote in Louisiana
as a partisan, a, sense of honor and
fairness, if he possessed such quail
ties, would have prevented his ac-
cepting a seat on the Commission.

Our County Fair.

The time is near at hand for hold
ing the Annual Fair of the New
berry Agricultural and Mechanical
Society: the Fair will be held the
9Th, 7th and Sth of October. The
Executive Committee have arranged
a very attractive programme for the
occasion. They would urge the
people Of the County to use their
best endeavors to make the Fair
even better than last year. Every
man, woman and child who can
contribute any exhibits should do
so. Special attention is called to
the fact that there is no charge for
entries in Household Department
A, B and G, Domestic Manufac-
lures, Needle and Fancy Work,
Horticulture, Drawings and Paint
ings.
The attendance this year will no
doubt be larger than ever before,
and we hope the display of articles
will be of a superior and varied
character.

The NewDerry Lynching.

Elsewhere we give a detailed ac
count of the murder of the Griers,
whose bodies We're afterwards found III
Little River, Newberry County We
have no sympathy for men who may
be guilty Of the crimes of which these
men were accused. The one great
question with US is, were they guilty?
To our mind that question with US is
not answered as satisfactorily as We
would like to see. Another matter, if
the parties doing the killing were con.
scious of doing the right, why did
they DO the killing in the darkness?
And then, why did they tie rocks to
their bodies and sink them in the
river. and conceal the act? The cor
respondent Of the Ne,Os and Courier
falls into the common error Of giving
on general principles detailed accounts
of the wIckedness Of the deceased. In
such accounts Irrelevant matter should
not be incorporated in the report. Be-
cause these negroes may have been
thieves or were loafers is no excuse for
the killing.
AJJeville Press d Banner.
"Were they guilty?" Unques-
.tionably they were, Of the attempt.
The lady upon whom the attempt
was made positively identified them,
and her statement, with all who
know her, is as convincing as ali the
sworn testimony that could be
heaped up in a Court of Justice :?
"Why did they do the killing in
darkness and why did they con-
ceal the act?" A sense of family
pride, and a desire to prevent the
name of the lady from being brought
so prominently before the public in
such a connection, are sufficient ex-
plantations. The local papers of
Laurens and Newberry have appre-
ciated and respected this feeling
from the beginning.
The negroes are dead, and have
met deserved fate. Lynch law is
a terrible resort but it IS the only
efectual remedy for cases of this
kind. Leave the offenders to the
laws delay and uncertainty,and the
time will soon come when no white
woman will be safe without a man
standing guard over with double
barrel shot gun to protect her from
q fate worse than death.

the expenditures q! 1910 Will biiooo
of 1878. The books in the State
House showed that the expenses to
the State of the Executive Depart
nent, Legislature, Judiciary, Health
Department, and ordinary civil and
local expenses were s29. 1888 less in
1878 than 1853. (Applausc and
cheers
The expenses of the penal and char
liable institutions had necessarily in
creased, for before there Was no penl-
teutiary, each county caring for its
own prisoners, aud the hunatic Asy-
lum was almost self.sustaining, the ex-
penses of the inmates. white and col
ored, being borne by friends and
owners. Now, only 20 of 81 were
paid for, and it cost the State S8S,0OO
last year. The expenses of collecting
the taxes were $1,000 more in 1878
chan in 1858, which was due to the
fact that additional officers were re-
quired now. Before the war, land
and slaves paid the expenses. Now
personal property: bonds and obllga.
tious were taxed, and to discover and
levy on such things an increased force
and expense was necessary.
Tha State debt had been gotten in
to ship-shape, the amount ascertained
to dollar and cent, and all taint of
fraud eliminated from it. Democratic
rule had already advanced The States
obligation from % cents on the dol
lar to par, and if the people obeyed
the demands of their honor and their
interest, and saw that the interest of
six per cent. was promptly met South
Carolina securities would be second to
none in the world, and their holders
would eagerly refund them for four
per cents.
The Democracy had pledged itself
to
PROTECTION OF THE PEOPLES S RIGHTS
of person and property, and that all
offenders should be brought to justice.
The quick blood that flows iu the
white mans veins, with his teaching
and training, taught him to resent GER
tain thipgs-for instance when his
women were touched, Or his person or
honor assailed. Bred amid such sur
roundings, the colored man had ac-
quired similar feelings and tendencies.
10 these causes could be traced most
of the violence that had occurred in the
State during the past four years, and
it had been that of white towards white
and black against black. The violence
against which the Democratic party
had protected the people was Of the
class that harmony would prevent
the violence of white against black,
and black against white. This class
of violence during the past four years
had almost disappeared, and the courts
records would show that the strife had
not been race against race, but man
against man. The judges had been
pure, aud no discrimination had been
shown in the selection ofjurors. The
great preponderauce of cases in which
colorcd mer selected white Jurors to
conduct their trials, demonstrated
concIusively tnat confidence had been
restored between the two. The colo
red man enjoyed his civil rights. They
knew that to public place or convey.
ancc where their inclination or purses
would carry them they had easy &C
cess, and the white man had shown
that he had no wish to deprive thu
colored man of those or any otnel
rights. (Cheers and prolonged ap
plause.)

4 Defensive Campaign.

Garfeld's friends have had their
hands more than full since his nom
nation in defending him from
charges that have been made against
him. The first charge is that while
Chairman of the Committee on Ap-
preparations he got bill through
the House awarding contract for
paving the streets of Washington,
and was paid $4,000 by the DeGol-
yer Paving Company for his SER
vices. This charge is not denied,
but he says he received the $4,000
as ''fee' as a lawyer for securing
the contract for the company. How
could he act as a lawyer to advocate
a measure before a committee Of
which he was Chairman and to get
B bill through the House Of which
he was a member Whether the
$4,000 was a ''lawyer's fee" or a
bribe the case is equally dishonor
able to Garfield. Nobody doubts
that it was a downright bribe.
Another charge is that in 1873,
while a member of the House, he
received stock in the "Credit Mo-
bilier' Company in consideration Of
his influence and support in behalf
of the Union Pacific Railroad. When
Oakes Ames was Investigated by a
Republican Congress Garfield was
caught and was severely censured
in the report of the Investigating
committee.
The other charge is in connection
with the vote of Louisiana: as ''vis-
iting statesman" in 1875, and his
subsequent conduct as member OF
the IS to 7" Commission.
With all these charges against
their candidate the Republicans are
having uphill work of it. Another
difficulty in Garfeld's way is that
he is not the choice of his party, nor
of any considerable portion Of it: as
| 4 Presidential candidate heis a crea
ture of chance. It is no wonder
| then that the Republican campaign
lacks the enthusiasm and vigor oi
former years.
On the other hand not a single
charge has been brought against
Hancock; except that he is a sol
| der and a rebel sympathizer. The
first charge cannot injure him with
his own party, who recognize the
fact that he is as great a statesman
as he is a soldier nor with the
Republicans, because three.f fourths
of that party we're dead bent OF
having a "soldier" nominated a
Chicago, but were defeated. As tc
the second charge it is too absurd
to be believed by anybody-his re
cord in the late war is complete
refutation of it. These charges
only show the length to which the
Republicans are driven in theil
desperation.
The rank and file of the Republi.
can party will vote for Garfield
and would if be were convicted ot
every crime in the decalogue; they
hold to ''party" ':like grim death tc
a dead nigger"; but there is q larger
floating vote that will go for Han
cock than has ever gone for any
Presidential candidate, and there is
large number who have heretofore
Invariably voted the Republican
ticket who will vote this time TO,
Hancock, and among this number
are many men of much prominence
and influence.
The Democratic outlook is ex
tremely encouraging.
