AN INTERVIEW WITH MIR. w. ". RUSSELL,
OF ANDERSON.
TFrom q Staff Correspondent I


SENECA City, August III had an in.
tcrvicw with Mr.. w. w. Russell this even.
ing about the condition of the Greenback
party and its plans. Ho said: "In Oconee
County wo have nine clubs, organized or
about 10 be organized, of which one is
colored club. This club was organized
with twopty members, but learn that its
membership has been increased. We cx-
pcct to poll from one-half 10 two thirds of
tho white vote of Oconce County--ths
much has been conceded by some of the
Democrats. We have not yet undertaken
to organize these people, but have SO far
only organized the disatfcctcd throughout
the State in order to hold them ia hand
until after the State nominations are made,
when wo propose to put full State ticket
in the field and make q canvass of the
State from the mountains to tho seaboard.
In our State nominations We will make our
selection from the Democratic State ticket
and that selection will bo COL J N. Lips
comb. The rest Of the Grccnback ticket
will be selected from the best material wo
can get in the State, men, if possible, who
have not bocn connected with politics in
the State, and young men if we can get
US in our chooc of nominee for Governor
Unless we can nominate man who will
promote the best and truest interests of the
people, 30 far as am concerned tho posi-
tion of Governor on our ticket may be left
blank. l think very well of Mr.. Campbell'o
nomination, but do not know anything
about it..
"The basis of representation in our
State Convention will be one delegate from
caoh organized club. No estimate of the
strength of tho clubs can bo given, but wo
have organizations in every county in the
State, with the exception of Abbcvillo,
Nowberry, Laurcns, Union and York.
"Wo will nominate candidate for
Congress in each of tho Congressional
Districts Mr.. Baskin will probably get
the nomination in tho Black District, Col.
Cash in tho Fifth, Mr.. j. Hendrix McLane
in tho Fourth, Col. D. Wyatt Aiken in
the Third. ] have not thought of who
the candidates may bo in the otkcr dis.
tricts."
| asked Mr.. Russell if thero was any
truth in the story that he had received
$4,000 with which to make tho Green
back canvass in South Carolina. He said.
"No, thcre is not ono syllable of truth in
such report. 1t is altogether false. If
you want to know who is furnishing tho
money to conduct our fight can tell you
that it is thirteen Carolina farmers Ask

A Railroad Jubilee.


men met hero yesterday to revise the freight
rates. Among those present wero MIR.
Solomon Haas, traffic manager of
tho Associated roads; Mr.. Slaughter, gene
raj passenger agent Of tho Richmond and
Eanville road; Mr.. D. Cardwell, assistant
general freight aud passenger agent of the
Charlotte, Columbia and Augusta aud Of
tho Columbia aud Greenville roads; Col. S.
B. Pickens, general freight agent Of the
South Carolina Railway; Mr.. NJ. j. Ver-
derry, President, and Mr.. Hill, general
freight agent, of the Augusta aud Knox
vile Road; Col. r.. L. Mclaughlin, Presi-
dent of the Columbia and Greenville Road,
aud Col. A. G. Haskell, President of the
Charlotte, Columbia aud Augusta Road.
The freight rates were advanced on tho
lower Glasses of freight from to 10 per
cent. and on the higher classes frcm 10 to
20 per cent There has been general
advance in tho freight rates all over the
country. The railroad men claim that the
country is prosperous in almost every depart
ment o. industry and can afford to pay ad~
vanced rates of transportation, sharing
with them the increased expenditures
necessary to keep their roads in seryccable
condition.
1t is expected that the frcights over tho
railroads in this State, during the next
year, will be at least Is per cent. in excess
present year. The crop prospects were
never 80 aattoriug aud the business already
done by the Columbia and Greonvilo and
the Charlotte, Columbia and Augusta roads
in the transportation of small grain to
markets outside of tho State is altogether
without parallel in the history of the State
The Charlotte, Columbia and Augusta road
has hauled out of the State, during the
present season, 100000 pounds, and the
Columbia and Grecnvillc road has furnished
transportation for 5000, 900 pounds of oats.
These oats were shipped to Charleston, Aus
gusta, Wilmington, Richmond aud Balti-
more, and their sale has gono far to relieve
the necessities of tho farmers of the mid.
die and upper counties.
In order to encourage industrial activity
in the State and to promote the interests of
all the people the railroad passenger agents
have made especially low rates for all the ag.
ricultural fairs in the State The rate agreed
upon is one cent and half per mile for
each mile travelled or three cents for round
trip tickets. In addition to this all freights
for exhibition at any Of tho fairs will be
transported FREQ unless sold at tho fairs.
Upon the shipment of all articles for exhi-
biton full rates will be charged, payment to
be made in advance of shipment. Upon
the return of the goods exhibited, however,
on the certificate of the secretary of the
association where exhibited the money will
be refunded by tho railroad agents, and the
goods returned without oearge to the place
of original shipment.

Scriptural Dancing.

DR.. lIadie, the scholar, draws tho follow.
ing conclusions from q careful collection of
all tho passages which refer to dancing:
CD That dancing was religious act in
true worship and in idol worship; (2) that
it was practiccd exclusively on joyful oc :
casons, such as national festivals or great
victories; (3) that it was performed on such
great occasions only by one of tho sexes;
(4) that 1t was performed usually in
the day time. in the open air, in the high
ways, in folds aud groves; (5) that men
who perverted dancing from sacred use to
purposes of amusement we're deemed infa.
nous; CO that no instances of dancing are
found upon record in the Bible in which
the two sexes united in tho exercise, other
as an act of worship or amusement; (7)
that there are no instances upon record in
the Bible of social dancing for amusement
except that of "van fellows" void Of
shame, alluded to by Michcal; the irreligi.
oas families described by Job, which pro-
duccd increased mpiety and destruction,
and Herodas, which terminated in tho rash
vow of IIcrod and tho murder Of John tho
Baptist.
