citizen to be a valid reason why he should vote
to oprolong the reign of branded thieves and
purjurers because they call themselves republi
cans. 1t is less to any presumed merit OF the
democratic party than to the proved crimes
and follies of the leaders whom the republican
party has accepted that the democratic party
owes this wonderful success.
THE PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN.
New York Herald.
Mr.. Jay Hubbell and his associates in the
dirty work of rObbing the government clerks
of their wages Mr.: Robson and his associ'
ates in river and harbor and other jobbery Mr.
Kasson, Senator Hoar, and their associates
who so insolently refused to relieve the people
from oppressive and unnecessary taxes-al
these heard from the people yesterday.
President Arthur also heard from the peo.
pie. Mr.. Cleveland's majority against Mr..
Arthur's candidate in this State can scarcely
run below 1876 900, and may turn out even
greater Mr. Pattison's plurality in Pennsyl
vania over the CamerOn-Arthur candidate
will probably reach $4,000, and may exceed
that. Mr. Arthur dictated the nomination OF
Mr.. Folger. contrary to the advice of his true
friends, and Mr.. Folger is ''snowed UNDER
so deep that dozen machines" could not
dig him out in dozen years.
The game is not played out, either for the
Republican party or for the President. The
Democratic success is so great as to be danger
ous to the victors. If Mr.. Arthur has sufli
cient sagacity and craftsmanship he may YET
save the Republican party from destruction
Is there any other Republican leader who car
do this ? We do not just now think of any.

DEATH OF DR.. B. CRAVEN.

DR.. Braxton Craven, President of Trinity
College, N. c., died on Tuesday night of last
week. He had been complaining through the
day, and was too unwell to go to the polls,
expressing deep regret that he could not vote.
But Notwithstanding the indisposition of
which he complained during the day, his death
was quite unexpected, and the announcement
of the sad intelligence was sudden and start
ling. DR.. Craven was a self made man, and
rose from obScurity to the most honored posi-
tion as teacher. He was justly regarded as
one Of the ablest divines in the NJ. E. Church
South. He was born in Randolph county,
August 26, 1928, and was raised farmer boy,
trained to hard work. The present location
OF Trinity College was founded, under the
name of Union Institute, by DR.. York, which
enterprise he abandoned for other fields, and
was succeeded by Mr. Craven, then a young,
self-taught man. Under his management the
school continued to flourish. A diligent STU
dent himself, as he acquired knowledge he en-
larged the curriculum, and few years after
he became the principal, the school had ac-
quired considerable reputation abroad. With
increased facilities it took the more preten-
sious name of Normal College, continuing to
grow and prosper until about the year 1856,
when the institution, having become the
equal of any similar educational establishment
in the South, was incorporated under the
name of Trinity College. Where, about 1910,
a school was commenced in an unpretensious
log house, there are now elegant and imposing
college buildings with all the appurtenances of
an institution whose reputation is coextensive
with the Union, and around the college has
sprung town composed of thriving, energet-

THE STATE ELECTION.

So overwhelmingly did South Carolina vote
Democratic last week, that the Democratic
nominees may hardly be said to have had
opposition Yet in the face of the Waterloo
defeat sustained by the Greenback-Republican
coalition, it is said that McLane seriously con-
templates contesting the election This may
be only an idle threat, on par with his gas
conade when nominated, that if elected and not
seated, he would see that South Carolina
should have military Governor. At the
present writing there is not much fear that
the people of South Carolina will have to sub
nit to either infiction. The charge of fraud
cannot be sustained, nor do we suppose the
old and familiar cry of intimidation can be
brought up from single voting precinct in
the State. McLane and his co-laborers in the
effort to reverse honest government in South
Carolina, will have to bring their action against
the voters of the State, who have spoken in
unmistakable tones in favor of a continuation
of Democratic rule. The following is table
of majorities in favor of Hugh S. Thompson,
tho Don,oorotio IN nominee for Governor.

DEATH OF REV. SAMUEL l.. WATSON.
On the morning of the 18th instant, Rev.
Samuel Little Watson came to his 'grave in
full age like shock of corn cometh in his
season." Having been born on the End of
February, 1893, be was, at the time of his
death, eghty-four years nine months and
eight days old.
In this short notice, only a few facts in the
history of Mr.. Watson can be mentioned. He
was born in the eastern part of York county,
within what was known at that time as Bethel
congregation ; but in what is now the territory
embraced by Allison Greek congregation. Col.
William b. Allison occupies the original home
stead. In the same neighborhood lived and
died his father, David Watson, and his grand
father, COL Samuel Watson.
OF the early education of MI Watson, no
more is known than it was such as was COM
mon in the rural districts at that early period.
In April, 1916, he entered the school of Rev.
Rocky River and Philadelphia congregations
in North Carolina. He remained with DIR.
Wilson about year and half, and then re-
paired to South Carolina College, from which
institution he was graduated in 1920.
1t was at Rocky River that he made pro-
fession of religion. During one vacation,
while in college and for short time after
graduating he taught school in the lower part
Of South Carolina. In October, 1923, he en-
tered Princeton Theological Seminary, and in
September, 1926, having completed his theo-
logical course he was at Long Cane, in Abb'-
vile county, South Carolina, licensed as a
probationer.
Soon after being LICENSED, LIE repaired to
Alabama. His missionary labors were con-
fned mainly, to what is now the city of
Montgomery. It may not be out of place to

THE LEGISLATURE.

The Charleston Ne,us and Courier of Satur
day publishes complete list of all the sue
cessful candidates in the State from which we
take the following
The Legislature has just enough Republi
cans in it to prevent us from saying that it is
entirely Democratic. A colored Republican
is elected to theSenate in Beaufort and another
colored Republican is elected to the Senate in
Berkeley. Bruce Williams, the colored Re.
publican Senator from Georgetown, holds
over. There will be, therefore, 3 Republicans
in the Senate. The House of Representatives
consists of 124 members, and the only Repub-
lcans will be the members from Beaufort, b
members from Berkeley and l from George
town, in which last named county fusion
ticket was run and the Democrats and Repub-
lcans divided the offices. There will be in the
House of Representatives, therefore, lis Dem.
ocrats and Republicans. In the Senate there
will be Republicans and 32 Democrats, and
| the Democrats viii have majority of l33 on
Joint ballot. There will be 3colored Republi-
cans in the Senate, and in the House there will
be II colored men, Republicans and Demo-
Gratis.
The county officers elected throughout the
State are Democrats, except in Beaufort,
Berkeley and Georgetown. Beaufort Is the
only county in which full Republican ticket
was elected, as in both Berkeley and George
town. on account of divisions among the Re-
publcans, the Democrats were given represen-
tation on the county ticket. One Greenbacker
claims election in the State, Fultz, who was
the Mackey candidate for coroner in Berkeley
county.
