Radiculsnl means. Tho peaceful four years
Just passed has not oN.iiCratGd it from thuir

rule of tho ignorant and vicious Tom Briar's
and Ben Donaldson's and their moro vicious
white associates now eager for revenge and
with appetitcs whcttcd for plundor by recent
deprivation. 1t means the destruction of
business confidence and tho robbery and
oppression OF our people. 1t means that
ourselves, our wives and our children will bo
in tue power of foul thieves and uuscrupulous 3
villains. who will lon0e nothing undone to
degrade and dcspoil us. And tho return of
the Radical party to powor would bo
permanent. WO could never shake it Of
agaio.
Any man who thiuks at all must know
that the second Radical reign in South Caro-
