An Interview with Carlisle.

a Washington dispatch gives the fol-
lowing in regard to the Speakership:
The SfaasoTship contest is growing
warm, even at this distance from the
meeting of Congress. Two of the most
prominent candidates Carlisle and Cox
are on the ground and although neither
of them has yet formally established
himself in headquarters the friends OF
both are gathering about them and get.
ting in readiness for active work. Ran.
dali has not yet arrived, but is expected
TO reach this city early next week. lie
is already represented hero by numerous
friends.
A steady stream Of visitors poured in
upon Carlisle and Cox Thursday. Many
members elect Of the coming Congress
called to pay their respects to the candi.
dates and to discuss the situation. An
Associated Press reporter called on Car
Isle Thursday evening, and, directing
that gentleman's attention to the inter
view published in the morning papers,
asked him what he thought of the latter'ss
statements.
"Mr. Randall" replied Carlisle, sis
much more confident than the facts war
rant. do not see how it is possible for
him to receive more than sixty votes on
the first ballot, and do not believe he
will get that many. The most careful
estimates made by my friends do not
give him near that many, although they
allow him considerable number OF
doubtful votes"
With respect to the estimates made by
his friends, the accuracy of which Ran :.
dali disputed the interview published
tkis morning, Carlisle said: "Of course
all of their estimates may be very mac.
curate, but they are made upon what is
considered reliable information, and are
certainly as likely to be correct as any
put forth by the friends Of the other
candidates. notice that Randall states
that the vote for Cox will be merely
complimentary, and that after the first
ballot he (Randall) will receive large
accessions from that quarter. For my
own part l have no reason to believe
that the friends of Cox are less sincere
in their support Of him than tho friends
of other candidates are. But If Cox
should be dropped or withdrawn before
the nomination is made, l feel quito
sure that the majority of his supporters
would not 60 to Randall"
Mr.. Carlisle was asked whether, in
view Of the recent statements concerning
his position with respect to tariff legisla.
ton during the coming session of Con.
gress, he had anything to say on that
subject. He expressed an unwillingness
to say anything for the reason that his
views ,.ith regard to the revision of the
tariff were we'll known. He would say,
however, that he did nDt believe in the
agitation of that question for the sake of
agitation.
The reporter asked NJ Carlisle if
there was any truth in the reports that
his friends were seeking to secnre viva
voce vote in the caucus.
Mr.. Carlisle replied that he did not
know that any efforts were making 70
Votsr @ a He had heard " some ns tali H.nSa aSout ~
that sort of voting being the proper thing
for u Democratic CAUCUS. For bis oHn
part, no said, he was not afraid to sub.
init his chances to viva yoce vote in
caucus.

SAVANNAH VALLEY RAILROAD.

Anderson is always slow to take hold
of public enterprises, and yet our citlzcns
are cnterprising and successful business
men, who have steadily improved rclty,
and are daily adding to It's growth and
prosperity Anderson has never dcvei-
opcd in any line until there was necessity
for it, and as consequence, while our
growth has been marked, il has been sub
stantial and permanent. In the main
this has been a good principle for the
citizens Of the place to act upon, but in
two or three instances sc have lost heavl-
iy by not entering the speculative arena,
and investing for the future g:o%t!: G!
our city. This was markedly SO in the
failure to secure the Air Line, and pos
sibly in the failure to purchase the Blue
Ridge Railroad.
These arc, however, matters of the
past, but there is n pending enterprise
in which Anderson has embarked that
ought to be carefully and promptly con.
sidcred. That enterprise is the compile.
ton of the Savannah Valley Railroad.
1t is a necessity for our section, and with
proper management could hnvc been
completed ere this. But the past mis-
takes are no reason for tho abandonment
of the work. II is reasonably certain
that no further mistakes will be made,
and it is equally certain that great ad-
vaniages viii result 10 al points along
the line from building the road. To
Anderson the road is necessity. With
Greenville and Abbeville both in close
connection with the Georgia Central, We
cannot afford to do without this road.
The INTELLIGENCER is in favor of
giving every facility for building the
Savannah Valley, and thinks Anderson
can afford to do her full part, provided
the other points along the line will do
tho same SO as to secure the completion
of the road. If they will not do so, then
we favor building from Anderson by
Abbeville to Verdery, on the Augusta &
Knoxville Road. by making Anderson q
subscription to this line instead Of the
Savannah Valley, and securing like
subscription from Abbcville, we could
with aid from the Townships along this
line, easily grade the road from Anderson
to Verdery, distance of only thirty
seven miles.
Anderson must get an outlet at once,
and if the people along the limo Of the
Savannah Valley do not desire tho road
enough to help them, we ought to look
out for new allies. The Savannah Valley
is our preference, but tho line by Able.
vile will answer us equally rs we'll
Therefore, weshnll endeavor to secure leg.
islation that will give Anderson an op.
portunity to subscribe to either road
We must build to tho Augusta & Knox
Vile Railroad in self. defense, and will
have to take the route where the most
help is offered. AS will be seen from
the opinion Of our business men pub
lished elsewhere, the people want the
Savannah Valley, and if the points along
the liua will subscribe as they should, we
will nave tho ROAD at an early day.

ANTICIPATING DEFEAT.
A Washington dispatch of the 10th
inst. says:

A Washington dispatch of the 10th
inst. says:
An evening paper publishes to-day q
statement that there is now on file in the
department of justice report the con-
tents of which have never been made
public. This report is to the effect chat
it is impossible to convict any one of m
election offence in South Carolina.
Men, women and children are against it.
No jury could be found that would con-
vict. It il set forth that the wives and
sweethearts Of white men drawn for jury
duty say to their husbands and lovers
before they go to the Court, "You need
not come back to me unless you do your
duty" This means that, "unless you
give verdict for acquittal you can de-
part" This report was made by spe-
cial agent Of the department of justice,
and is endorsed by the United States
district attorney.
This report is maliciously partisan and
false. If the United States will give
persons charged with any crime fair
trisl in South Carolina, there will be no
difficulty i'll convicting, where guilt is
established but when the Courts are
prostituted for partisan ends. and men
are placed on trial with packed juries,
and with evidence against them that is
palpably perjured, no man with self.
respect who may happen to be on such a
jury can agree to convict. The punish.
ment of crime is commendable and de-
sirable, but every citizen must hold the
integrity of trials in our Courts Of more
value than even the punishment of
crime; 80 that We believe it ia moral
duty which any honest man upon jury,
which is known to be drawn to secure
convictions, owes to the great aims of
justice and morality to refuse TO agree
to " rdict Of guilty, even if he would,
on f,ir trial, consent TO such verdict.
Such methods of trial should be abso.
lutely condemned. Prosecuting officers
should be taught that they cannot secure
convictions by partisan juries. Politics
should never get into Court. and there is
no more solemn duty resting upon the
citizen than to assert the principles of
JuetiCo ~ pieSonthuS SoHfiCtAUu uoIoIo
such q jury. The sense of justice in all
honest men revolts at such a procedure
as the District Attorney has attempted
In South Carolina, and as long as he pur-
sues such course he will fail to convict,
III single honest man is placed on the
jury. It is not question only of guilt
or innocence, but the greatest question is
shall our Courts be used for partisan
purposes to convict men on perjured
evidence with packed juries 2 In every
case that this issue is presented aman
who aSrees to a verdict of guilty sane.
tions It, and becomes an object to be de-
spiss1 and condemned by all honest men.
1.-THE government wants fair trials, let
them begin BY drawing fair juries. If
che government will do this, public in,
terest In these trials will cease. sud they
will be, treated as all other cases. Bat
as long as i the juries are expressly or
gapised 10 convict, our people owe it to
good government and to the great prin-
clple OF liberty involved in q fair and
Impartial trial to prevent convictions.

= Tx Congressman Dezcndorf has
written Il letter to Ex-Governor ID. Ii.
Chamberlain in which he declares he
has rendered the best service to his party
by defeating Malone that the Readjus-
ters formed the most corrupt combina.
ton that ever existed in any State; that
it existed only by fraud, misrepresenta.
ton, disregard of law. partisan interpre-
tation of the statutes, and bribery and
CORRUPTION in legislative halls. Mr..
l)ezendorf charges that Malone wanted
the country to believe that the so. called
riot ut Danville was the cause of his de-
feat, and that the white people of Vir.
ginia had inauguratcd II bloody crusade
against the blacks. "No baser slander
was ever uttered against any people,"
says Mr. Dezendorf. ut was a peaceful
and fair election. The Danyille riot was
the Legitimate outgrowtll of Mahone's
methods and the natural result of the
intianmaiory speech made by his man
Sims the night before the disturbance"
Mr.. Dezendof adds that if the Republ-
can party must bc fed on such diet, it
had better die while i; has any reputa-
tion left. Malone was the victim of too
much Malone.
- On Monday last singular and
fatal accident occurred to the three year
old daughter of James Tate in Paris
Mountain Township. The child was
eating pinders. Suddenly it choked.
After some time it grew better. On Fri
day night, much to the grief of its parents,
its breathing unexpectedly became diff.
cult, and in II few minutes it was stran-
gled to death. a pinder had lodged in
its throat, and in four days had gotten
into position in which it entirely OBJ.
s,ructed breathing GrecnriNc Ncws.
