south Carolina Census Returns-Large
Gains.
New YORK, August 9th.-Tbe Times thus
on the special dispatch from South
Carolina: There is some reason for the alarm
which South Carolina Republicans express at
the confident statements of the Democratic
managers concerning large increase in the
of that State. Senator Butler has
declared that the new census will show an
of over 80 per cent in the population,
and another Democratic orator prophesies
that the increase will be 3S per cent. The
theory of the Republicans is that the census
returns have been manipulated to cover the
fraudulent Democratic vote in
several counties. This could not be done
withoutthe CO. o.operation of Census Supervisors.
But it will be remembered that South Caro-
lima Republicans protested vainly against the
appointment of three men who were backed
by Democratic influence. The natural sus-
picion is heightened by the fact that the Dem
ocratic managers have apparently got at the
census footings in advance of everybody else.

lating to the subject. The laws, rules and
decisions of the Department of the General
Land Office are applicable to this case.
