four years, for the same things, they ex>

did. This for South Carolina
Now, that you nlny be reminded again.
let us sec how the Case strands in North

facts concern every taxpayer. When the

money as would suffice to run the Lepisln-

years.

The C3reenbaok Meeting at this Place

On last Monday sthe Greenback cam
Paign party, consisting of j. Hendrix Nc.
Lane Tor j. McHendrix Lean) and Major I.
H. Russell put in an appearance ut this
place for the purpose of efffgltoffibg our
sturdy mountain yeomanry on the myste
ries of the Creenback yarty. We wisb wa
had space to give them an extended notice.
but our columns are full at this writine md
mere notice is all we can give tiIem tIi;s
week, but will probably notice them NJ
more length in our next issue. We asked
ior division of time, but they refused,
saying that under instructions of their Ex-
ecu'iVe Committee they did not feel at lib
erty TO do so. They were not able TO find
ahy one to net as chairman of the meetino
ana HlaJ. Russell introduced McLane, who
sp ke In conversational manner" as he
termed 1t, for about one hour and n half
IL was about as tame thing as we ever
listened TO. He hade no point, but per.
verted facts to suit his purposes Major
Russell followed him in another hour and
n hairs talk, entering into n long argument
about the National banking SYSTEM, which
we do not think he. nor many of his hearers
understood.
From actual count, there " ere about so
persons prcsent-30 negroes, about 6 white
Radicals and 48 Democrats. Not one fourth
inns number would have been present had
1t not been saleday, and most Of them wen,
IN the Court House 10 hear them more
through curiosity than anything else. Thew
made no converts, but cemeuted and ma,e
the Democracy more solid than ever.
Maj h. a. Child in brief, eloquent md
patriotic speech replied TO both NcLane
and Russell. and completely demolished
their argum nts. He showed that the
Greenbhck: party was n nondcscript, n
h"rmaphrodite, that it was neither fish
flesh or fowl. He showed by facts and
figures that the Democratic party had kept
every pledge made in 1876; that we had an
honest, economical Government and that
every citizen of The State was protected in
all his political and legal rights. We
would like to follow Maj. Child further in
his splendid speech but spnce forbids and
we must dcsSt.

EvICrED FROM A SAN FRANCIsCo HOTEL.
The San Francisco Chronicle Of April
9th says: Elizabeth Hughes, . mid
dle-aged English woman, with three
small children, the oldest scarce 10
years Of IRe, were given a temporary
shelter at the city prison yesterday af-
ternoon, ard were subsequently remov-
ed by the British Benevolent Society to
more comfortable quarters. The wo-
man stated that she and her family Of
little ones arrived from Australia on the
steamship City of Sydney q few days
ago, expecting to meet her husband,
who is in business in Seattle, w. T. On
her arrival she went to the Prescott
House, where she remained until yeotor-
day, when the landlord turned her out
of her room and into the street. Her
husband, she states, probably missed .
steamer, or miscalculated tho time Of
her arrival, and will no doubt arrive on
the incoming vessel from Puget Sound.
She says that she informed the hotel
keeper Of this fact, but that he ridjoul-
ed her story and elected her. Late last
evening the proprietor of the hotel
called at the city prison and inquired IT
Mrs. Hughes was there. He vas in
formed that she had been taken in
charge BY the Bensvoleut Association,
and the story Mrs. Hughes told was ~
peated to him. Instead of vouehsa6ng
an explanation he turned ON his heel,
and after giving vent 70 . self-satiaded
erunt said: I didn't put her out left

The Chicago Grand Jury says, after a
long investigation of gambling: I'VE
came to the conviction that gambling is
at present protected by the police power
Of the city, and that it is an almost
hopeless task to attempt an enforcement
of the criminal laws against the per-
niciOus nuisance a. long as the police
authorities, under instructions from the
Mayor, permit gambling to 60 on in
