4 Defensive Campaign.

Garfeld's friends have had their
hands more than full since his nom
ination in defending him from
charges that have been made against
him. The first charge is that while
Chairman of the Committee on Ap.
propriations he got a bill through
the House awarding a 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 a 'efee" 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
ne 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 downright bribe.
Another charge is that in 1878,
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 wis
iting statesman" in 1876, and his
subsequent conduct as a member OF
the s'8 to 7" Commission.
With all these charges against
their candidate the Republicans are
having uphill work Of it. Another
difficulty in Gar6eld's way is that
he is not the choice of his party, nor
of any considerable portion Of it: as
a Presidential candidate heis crea.
ture of chance. It is no wonder
then that the Republican campaign
lacks the enthusiasm and vigor of
former years.
On the other hand not a single
charge has been brought against
Hancock except that he is a SOL
dier and a rebel sympathizer. The
first charge cannot injure him with
his own party, who recognize the
fact that he is as great statesman
as he is soldier; nor with the
Republicans, because three.fourths
of that party we're dead bent on
having a "soldier" nominated at
Chicago, but were defeated AS to
the second charge it is too absurd
to be believed by anybody-his re-
cord in the late war is a complete
refutation of it. These charges
only show the length to which the
Republicans are driven in their
desperation.
The rank and file of the Republi.
can party will vote for Garfield,
and would if be were convicted of
every crime in the decalogue; they
hold to party" ':like grim death to
a dead nigger"; but there is a larger
floating vote that will go for Han
cock than has ever gone for any
Presidential candidate, and there is
q large number who have heretofore
invariably voted the Republican
ticket who will vote this time for
Hancock, and among this number
are many men Of much prominence
and influence.
The Democratic outlook is ex-
tremely encouraging.

necessary to order a similar invests ga
iion this year. The courage of the
Maine Republicans never was higher
than at this moment. We have
elected twenty-five members Of the
Senate against nine by the Fusioulsts,
and have the House of Representatives
by large majority. The political
power of Maine is permanently wrcsted
from the men who last year dishono-

House showed that the expenses to.
the State of the Executive Depart
uent, Legislature, Judiciary, Health
Department, aud ordinary civil and
local expenses were s29.333 less in
1873 than 1858. (Applause and

The expenses Of the penal and char
liable institutions had necessarily in-
creased, for before there was no peni-
tentiary, each county caring for its
own prisoners, aud the Lunatic Asy-
lum, was almost self:sustaining, the ex-
penses of the inmates. white and COL
ored, being borne by friends and
owners: Now, only 90 of Sll~were
paid for. and it cost the State S88, 600
last year. The expenses of collecting
the taxes were $1,000 more in 1878
than 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 obliga-
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 a dollar and cent, and all faint of
fraud clininated 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

PROTECTION OF THE PEOPLES RIGHTS
of person and property, and that all
offenders should be brought -. justice.
The quick blood that flows in the
white mans veins, with his teaching
and training, taught him to resent Ger
tain things-for instance when his
women were touched, or his person or
honor assailed. Bred amid such sur
roundings, the colored man had ae-
quircd 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, and no discrimination had been
shown in the selection ofjurors. The
great preponderauce of cases in which
colored men selected white jurors to
conduct their trials demonstrated
conclusively that confidence had been
restored between the two. The colo
red man enjoyed his civil rights. They
knew that ito public place or convey
ance where their inclination or purses
would carry them they had easy &C
cess, and the white man bad shown
that he had no wish to deprive The
colored man of those or any other
rights. (Cheers and prolonged ap'

I beg leave to make the following
explanation to the erroneous article
"By What Authority" that appeared
in last issue of HERALD, inasmuch as
T am alluded to personally:
1st. I .am not employed by contract
or otherwise with the County for II
months for SIS.

tered in contract for DR.. Folk to "do

Sd. If I have an agreement at all
with County Commissioners, it is to
visit County Poor House twice moth
and oftener if necessary, and to visit
Jail when sent for. .,y.. .......i.3
4th. I au under no obligations with
County to visit patients, only Poor
House and Jail, and if I am sent for.
at other places I certainly will make a
charge and sustain it to the fullest ex-
tent Of law. :.--.. y. .:.-~ mi;

Owens, who received wound in the
thigh at or within 100 feet of Mr..
MaDgum's store '(and Newberry Jail
is not shere) on the night Of June 5sh:
at one o'clock. If I had not legal
right to make charge there I have,
no right to. make any elsewhere.

County Commissioners for S42 for said
service, but for smaller amount.

Worthless StuH?.

Not so fast my friend if you could
see the strong, healthy, blooming men,
women and children that have been
raised from beds of sickness, suffering
and almost death, by the r;se Of Hop
Bitters, you would say "Glorious aud
invaluable remedy" See another

The Newberry Lyncbing.


Elsewhere we give detailed ac-
count of the murder of the Griers,
whose bodies We're afterwards found in
Little River, Newberry County We
have no sympathy for men who may
be guilty Of the crimes of which these
men we're 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 News 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.
AJOeUilie Press G 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 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 desire to prevent the
name of the lady from being brought
so prominently before the public in
such 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 a deserved fate. Lynch law is
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.
