cessity Of doing something in this ca,n-
pnlgn II the state was ever Ia bu redeem
ed, :" lie thought if the Republicans
would take vigorous action, the nine
electoral votes OF South Carolina could be
killed.
Mr. Leslie, of lickens, speaking of
Grccnbackers, snid there WAS not n single
one III his township so G,r us he knew,
hut there was disnilection among tho
Democrats.
MIR: Clark of Lancaster spoke Mt some
length and cointided with other speukers
in bewniling tho lukowarInnosS of tho
party managers. He thought tho time
had como for arcvival. In his County
the Republicans were really TO strike ut
any time, though there were only half II
dozen white mon there who had the nerve
to stand up and say thny wore Repuhli-
cans. lie wanted to know what tho par-
" would gain BY an alliance while tho
present electoral machinery existed. The
Democrats Ind devised means to tlofraud
successfully. The pnrty might do some
thing with the congressman, but he
Thought tho State and County hopeless.
Frank Williamson thought there was
great deal to bo gained. Many Demo
Gratis would not vote the Grcenback ticket
because they wcro threatened with IL
straight Republican ticket, which would
win at tho last moment by tho division of
the whites. He wanted to help the Green
backora win.
Ii the Bourbons were beat once they
were boat forever, for tho electoral laws
could DO repealed. Among tho Greon back
leaders there were rod shirt Democrats of
1876.
Wilson Cook though, tho true Repub-
lican policy was to lie quiet and hold tho
balance of power In tho fight that would
come among tho whites.
Postmaster Poinier of Spartanbury
said in his County there was no Repubi-
can majority and nll they could do was
democrats. lIe favored tho Greenback
idea, and moved the appointment of q
committee to communicate with tho cd
itors of the Reform Signal Greenbuck or
gan, of Columbia, so as to get into COM
nuniration with the Grcenback Executive
Committee.
This matter was discussed by Marshal
Blythe, Leslie. Warren r. Marshall and
others, and a resolution finally adopted
to appoint n committee of five to confer
with the Greenback Executive Commit
tee and take such action as 1t might SEQ
tit without committing the party to any
thing.

THE TICKET THAT WILL lie nEATEN.

The Greenbackers will hold their State
Convention in Columbia on next Tues.
day, the 9th of September, when they
propose to nominate State ticket, which
Mr.. Russell promises shall be elected by
sixty thousand majority. We give Mr..
Russell credit for little perception, and
therefore do him the justice to suggest
that he possibly meant to say that the
Greenback ticket shall not be elected by
sixty thousand mnjority-a statement in
which every one posted in South Carolina
affairs would agree with him, as it is
evident this mongrel crew cannot be
elected at all. There is, however, no
doub: that they will nominate ticket,
and that they will canvass the State.
Who they will place on their ticket is
not ye: known, for they have no man in
:hei. party Of sufficient prominence in
the State to give them any standing US
candidate for Governor, and very few, if
any that are suitable for the other posi-.
tions. They will probably bid for the
Republican vote by nominating Judge
Mackey, and one or two moderate Re.
publicans. upon their ticket, and will

Congress in the Democratic districts,
leaving the Republicans the seventh,
sixth and second districts, which are
considered by them either doubtful or
Republican. They are in alliance with
the Republicans and cannot antagonize
that party. They will nominate a ticket
to the Republicans, and will
pursue such course as to damage the
Democracy all that lie possible. Fortu.

The entertainment given by the Crescent
and Emers0naD Societies OF the Wichita
high school passed of very pleasantly. The
audience was made up of the most intelli-
gent OF the city, and notwithstanding the
fact that the room was crowded, enjoyed the
exercises. Too much praise could not be
given Mrs. Russell for the perfect rendering
of the carols. The piano solos were excel
lent, Miss Mossie Baldwin's rendering of
Ley6ach's 9Th Nosturne being especially
worthy of mention. The declamations and
Rotations were very creditable. The soci-
cites presented very fine appearance as
they marched in, each society having its ap-
propriate badge, which was worn by each
member, the color of the Emcrsonians being
navy blue and that of the Crescents, cardi.
nal The room was tastetully decorated, the
walls being adorned with oil paintings and
steel engravings and the society names and
notices, the Crescent motto being Vita sine
litsris mors est, ''life, without literature, is
DEATH" and that Of the Emersonians. Aagni
aominis stat sm5ra, s'under the shadow Of
great name" Handsome Undergraduates
hung in the windows, and grand piano
graced the front part Of the room.

The statement from the gentleman at An
dover-just over the line In Better county
that he intended to use all his influence to
prevent the bonds being voted and the road
built through Payne township, makes good
text for n sermon on the proposition which
has been submitted to tho intelligent voters
Of Payne. The principal reason offered is
the same one that Wichita had In objecting
to and discouraging the extension Of the
Santa Fe south into Cowley and Sumner
counties: it cut OF large amount of BUSH
ness. He knows very well that the voting
OF the bonds means the building Of the road,
aud the building Of the road means a rival
town In Payne township, that che will have
shipping point within her own borders.

zens OF Andovcr for working for their own
interests, but the selfish motive on their part
is so apparent, 70 plain, that their influence
