INDIAN TROUBLES.



WASHINGTON, August 2j.-rle following
has been received at the War Department
from For, Robinson, dated yesterday: Red
Cloud says he has given the Indian De-
parinent sixty days notice, in which time
he wants nm investigation and the agent
removed, or he will, with his followers, put
the agent oil by force, and the department
must be responsible II m outbreak follows.
Red Cloud is cool, but determined. lie
has quite II following, whicl, lam informed
is daily increasing. Something should be-
done at once to counteract this influence,
otherwise trouble will surely follow, the
extent OF which cannot be iorseen. 4 lit.
tie more strength here and at Fort Niobara
would be judirious and should be ordered
at once. This would strengthen the Indian
Department without interference from US
and might save lis greater trouble and ex.
pense in the end.

Two Suggestions.

Don't YOU think it good idea when
the people shall have elected their re-
presentstives, to call County Con
veusiou to let the representatives kooW
what laws the County needs most! 1
know it would save our representatives,
from a great deal Of abuse Some
peupIe ,hink after We have elected our
representatives they oazht to soow
every law that will SUIT very man.
Our repr. sentatives are ,.rvapt~ "f the
people, and it is our du'y to let the,u
know what laws will b.: beneficial tc
our County. Let them he Instructed
by the voice of the County, and then
if they do not heed the voice Of the
people, they are to be blamed. How
can We expect people to be repre-
septed when they DO uot instruct their
servants in regard to their wants BY q
Convention
I think We could get rid of two or
more Offices 10 this County, which
you'd be benefit to the taxpayers.
2ud. Doa't you thiuk it good idea
to assess our County officers to pay
the expenses of the coming campaign
in this County? I know that they
thiuk their pay is very small; but, at
the same sime, some could be assessed
as high as one hundred dollars. if it
would be necessary. DEN.

1t cannot be otherwise than source
of regret to every thoughtful Demo.
crat to see in different portions of our
State more or less of controversy and
faction mapifesting itself in the Dem
ocratic Clubs.-Anderson Mtelligsn-
Ger.
On the contrary, Mr.. lntslllgen-
Ger, it is one of the most hopeful
signs of the times. It shows that
the people are doing a little of the
talking and thinking themselves,
aad that they are tired Of following
bIindly the lead of the politician,
the demagogue and the place hun
ter. Now is the time for contro
versy and faction-the time for the
people to speak out; to break the
rings; to contend for their opin.
ions; to express their grievances,
if they have any; and to let their
opinions and their wishes be known.
There is nothing like ''controversy
and faction" to prevent nomina'
tions by cliques and rings. After
nominations are made it will be too
late for controversy, for then the
cry will 60 all along the line, ''stick
to the nominations It will then
be the duty of individuals to subor,
dinate their personal preferences
and their opinions; but there is no
sense in asking them to do so now.
Until nominations are made we in
sist upon ''an open field and a fair
fight, in which every Democrat who
chooses to break a lance can do so.

ALI Aboard for AtlantS.
The Greenwood, Atlanta and Pacific Rail-
road"
Greenwood Argus, Goth.

Greenwood Argus, 2Gth.
After the adjournment of the dem
ocrstic club last Saturday, a meeting
was called to consider the prscticability
Of building railroad from Green
wood to Atlanta, >via Abbsvills, El-
bertop anu Athens. Prof. S P.
Boozer, in a charming and entertain
ing speech, presented the many rea-
SOUS making the building Of such a
road necessary to the furthering of
our affairs, and spoke encoursgingly
of the bright prospects in view in
the event of our people going to work
with energy aud determination to
build the road A road running from
Greenwood to Atlanta would place
our town in the enjoyment Of advan-
tages that could not be attained from
any source. Columbia would be near
er Atlanta by 38 miles, and Spartan
burg would be nearer by IL miles,
over the Greenwood, Laurens and
Spartauburg Road. With the road
built to Atlanta, We then could turn
our eyes toward the east, aud build a
connecting link on to Winnsboro',
Camden, Florence and Wilmington.
With the building of this road, and
the extension of the Western link of
the Augusta and Knoxville, and the
completion of the Savannah Valley,
Atlanta would then have a competing
line to Augusta. Prof. Boozer spoke
about 80 minutes, and commanded
strict attention while he dwelt on the
various points which we're suggested in
connection with the proposed enter
prise. The road can be built, and our
people should awake to the Importance
of the scheme. The suggestion was
made that the road be styled The
Greenwood, Atlanta and Pacific Rail-
road" A committee on charter was
appointed consisting Of Messrs. ". K.
Blake aud Prof. S. 2. Boozer, Of
Greenwood, and Messrs. L. W. Perrin
aud L W. White, of AbbeVllle. An
other meeting to further consider this
grand enterprise will take place iume
diately after the adjournment Of the
next democratic meeting.

For THE HERALD.
Concerning the Campaign and
the Primary Election.

MEssRs. EDITORS Having wit
messed the proceedings of the Conven-
ton, we think it not out of place to
say what We think to be for the gen.
eral good of our people. I was glad
the primary plan was adopted-I do
not think the Convention plan would
have kept the people united-aud I
hope that there will be no effort to
abridge its management or proper con-
duct, so as to give the people the lar
gest scope possible in selecting between
the candidates. [ fear there will be
a disposition to pervert the plan of the
primary so as to make it virtually of
no effect. 1st. To determine the result
by plurality vote, which does not
express the will Of the people. No
uau should be declared the nominee
who does not receive majority of the
votes cast. Next, the primary elec.
tion should not be brought off too
soon. The candidates should have
auple time to become acquainted with
the people, and the people should have
good time to thiuk what they are
voting for. Some measures should be
ventilated. The candidates for the
Legislature should be required to say
whether or not they favor public ap.
propriations for local institutions +;
aud, if so, We will let them stag at
home and appropriate Of thei- private
funds as much as they please. We
are tired of it. Next, tLey should be
required not to abuse the appointing
power. Some other matters may be
presented for your readers hereafter.

We agree with Dem" that the
representatives should know what
are the peoples wishes. But we
think it more important that the
people shcuu..aa know the views of
tne candidates and the candidates
should be required to express their
views on all the public issues OF
the day.
As to "Dem.'s" other suggestion,
we do not think it a good one; be-
cause the proper theory is that Off
GERS are not chosen for their own
benefit, but for the benefit of the
people. It would not be right,
therefore, to expect them to pay
more than their proportionate
share.

The Greenville NeWs says: s'The
people are tired and sick of 'Regu-
lar candidates who are not fit for
the offices to which they aspire.
Are we to infer from that fact that
the people are willing to take new
candidate, whether he be fit or not
and that a Irregular candidate,
though fit, should be sent to the
rear? We think the people are
specially desirous of obtaining pub
lie officers who are fit; and that
the question whether men are regu'
lar candidates, irregular candidates,
up country candidates, low-country
candidates, or any other sort OF
candidates-so long as they are
honest and capable Democrats-is
of minor consideration.

Greenwood is talking of a raj

Greenwood is talking of rail
road to Atlanta. The proposition
may appear to some ridiculous :;
but it is no more so than was the
proposition to build the road to
Augusta, or to Laurens. Fortune
always favor those who help them
selves; while those who fold their
arms and croak about difficulties
and impossibilities invariably get
left. This last statement applies
forcibly to Newberry. She might
have had a road to Augusta and to
Chester long ago if she had only
made the proper effort.
