Indefinite announcements made of tho

wien the splendid street parade arrives,
with its elephants, camcls, dromedaries
and wild beasts in caravan, its grand and
gorgeous ohario.s, cars aud uuges; its three
6ne martial bands and new Lcviathan Lo-

the hcurty cncomiums of both the press
and public wherever its oanopied wonder

recapitulate the many genuinely rare and

The Republican State Com
@ventfOn.


This body Of mongrels met IN Columbia
last week. All the counties were represented
by delegates and more than the usual inter-
est was manifested by them in tho proceed,
iDgs. The frst contest was for the control
Of the convention. +. w. NJ. Maokey,
white, and Smalle and Lee, oolored, were
the aspirants. Lee was successful through
the help Of Smalls, both being willing to
fight Maokey in all preliminary oontests.
The disgraceful scenes. common to this body
in former daye, were re.enaoted on perhaps O
dirtier end lower scale.
Tho principal discussion was over tho
question Of making nomination of their
own. or Of endorsing the Greenback ticket
for State officers. The delegates not
conceal their opinions. Politically, th., were
opposed to the principles Of the Greenbaok
party, but, boing powerless themselves, they
were willing to vote for aud make com.
mon cause with the Greenbackers for the
purpose Of defeating the Bourbon Democratic,
as they are pleased to coll them. Very few Of
tho speakers believed thut the coalition would
be successful this time. but they looked
upon it as the entering wedge that would in
the end hand the State over to tho Rcpubl-
cnn party. Not very much consideration
was shown in the discussion for the Green.
hackers or what was to become Of them in
the future. Clearly, the object of the Republi'
can leaders was to uso the Greenbackers to
''pull tho ohestnuts out Of the fire." and
then they expected to reap the substantial
fruits Of tho operation. Finally the Repub.
lican convention endorsed the State Greon>
back ticket and for time at leust promised
to cast their fortunes, bad as they are, with
the Green hackers.
The angriost and fercost contest was made
over the Craftsmanship Of tho State Execu.
tive Committee. Mr. Braytcn, Of the revenue
department, took hand along with Mackey
and Sam Lee for this position. The revenues"
were routed ne we'll rs Sam Loe and Mickey
was successful. Charges were openly mado that
Maokey purchased his way into tho position
and no one has denied it. This gives Mao
key control of the party machinery and will
enable him thereby to handle the ready cash
of the campaign.
Mackey, Smalls and Lee are mo king a
desperate effort to secure the nomination for
Congress in tho 7,h or "Black District"
From appearances Mackcy will bo SUCCESSES
full. The convention endorsed Col. Cash for
Congress from the Fifth District, thereby
blasting the hopos of T. j. Mackey for tho
position.
The Groenbackers refrained from making
nominations for Congress in the "Black
District" which shows that the coalition
between them and the Republicans is com-
pleto and rs ro tten and offensive as trading
in politics can be.

County Convention of the Green
hackers.

Tho county convention Of the Grcenback
party of Oconeo County met in the court
house at Walhalla on Saturday last. The
convention was called to order by Mr.. Henry
Harbin, who seems to be the generalssimo of
the party in Oconeo. A temporary organi-
cation was effected by eleoting Mr.. James
B. Phillips Chairman and j. Clurke Hunni-
cutt Secretary.
The roll of delegates was called whom it
appeared that nino clubs were represented by
ffty~six delegates, sixteen Of whom were
colored. The largest club was represented
by twenty delegates on tho roll call, though
all of them did not answer to their names.
The delegates were said to represent i've
members each, which would give the Seneca
club one hundred members. The other
clubs wore smaller, some Of them running
to one or two delegates. The clubs repre-
sented were Soneca, Double Springs. Little
River, Salem, Center, Walhalla. Long Creek,
Holly Springs and colorcd club, tho name
of which escaped US.
Mr.. w. j. IIarbin was mado permanent
Chairman and Mr.. Iunncutt was con-
tinucd rs permanent Secretary of the con :
vention.
Nominations for the Legislature and county
Offices being in order, tho names of Messrs.
George r. Cherry, Jamos Nj. IIunnicutt and
Robert Craig were announced by their
friends for the Legislature. Nlessrs Cherry
and Iunnicutt were nominated by large
majori.ies-.hat Of Mr.. Cherry being unani-
nous. The chairman of the convention
stated that he had had an interview with Mr..
Cherry, who stated that the announcement of
his namo in the primary election was with.
out HIS consent, and that he would accept the
nomination of the Greenbackors.
The convention refused to make a nomi-
nation for Probate Judge. The reason for
this rs stated was highly creditable to the
convention and Judge Lewis and will not
prejudice him with his party friends.
Mr.. j. Clarke Hunnicutt was nominated
for School Commissioner.
Messrs. Johnson II. Cleveland Charles w
Hunt and John w. Cannon wore nominated
as candidates for the office of County Com.
missoners.
Mr.. j. B. Sanders was nominated for
Coroner.
An executive committee of one from eacl,
club was appointed and wero authorized to
fill vacancies Of nominees if any shall de-
cline.

WALnALLA, S. c., September 10. 1882.
MEssRs. EpITo s: In your last issue ''Tax
Payer" requests an expression Of the views Of
the different candidates for the Legislature on
the question Of the proposed constitutional
amendment, providing for the formation Of new
counties. In compliance with this request
hive TO say that am opposed to the amend
ment, shall vote against IL and have already
been excring myself and shall continue TO
do 80, 10 defeat it before the people. If it
should be adopted by The people. and l am
sent to the Legislature, I shall there endcavor
to prevent lis ratification, unless q majority of
the people of Oconee county vote for it, in
which case should feel bound TO carry out
the will of tho people fairly expressed BY q
majority vote, though IL should DO contrary to
my own convictions. If it should finally be-
come part Of the constitution, in spite Of
efforts to defeat it, l should then try 10 pre-
vent tho taking any part of Oconee county 10
form new county.
The arguments for and against this amend
ment, and tho consequent formation of new
counties under it, If it should carry, have
been 80 fully discussed in tho papers and in
tho canvass by myself and others, that shal
not give my views upon them at length in

refrain from intruding on you my reasons for

Tho luxurious abundance in food produc-
ton the world over this year is strange
contrast with tho prices city folks have to
pay at the markets. Figures from Austria,
Italy, France, Germany, Russia. the States
of our own country, and in short, tho whole
of tho Northern hemisphere show that never
since statistics began to be collected have
there been such great harvests. The only
complaint VIC hear Of is from Spain. Tho
consequence of this should bo q decreased
oost Of living. Where there is abundance
there should be low prices. 1t ought to cost
less to produce because it costs less to live
Prices, however, remain stiff, and the people
have not yot in these centres Of population
begun to profit largely by the great yield Of
broad aeres Of the ear.h, but there is every
promise Of lowor prioos.
