DEMOCRATIC STATE CONVENTION.

The Democratic State Convention,
which met in Columbia last Thursday,
Is as harmonious and as intelligent n
body rs has assembled in South Carolina
since tho war. 1t did its work quickly,
and with remarkably little debate.
Looking back upon it we see II othing in
It's action to criticise but everything to
commend. Its purposes were high and
patriotic. It's action was wise and pru.
dent. There wRs no bitterness, snd
comparatively little difference of opinion.
The most marked acts Of the body were
its unqualified refusal to instruct it's
delegates to Chicago, or in ary way
hamper them by the expression If an
opinion upon the National canvass,
manifesting clearly n desire that the
delegates should coHs,ii: and act
for tho best interest of the Democrat
ic party in making the nomination
fci Pre- !ent and Vice. President; it's
discrimination TO nominate State ticket
which, though not unanimous, was 30
emphatic and overwhelming, yet mani
tested in such good temper That the mi
hority could only smilingly submit and join
in the unanimous and enthusiastic re.
nomination of the present State ticket
end last but not least, VIC regard the al.
Most unanimous adoption of the platform
without debate as n good days work. It
shows that the party in South Carolina
has taken no step backward. II favors
honest government, civil service reform,
competent officers, just aud equal laws,
public education, national aid to our
conner. schools, opposition to political
assessments, tariff reform, the abolition
of the Internal Revenue rs soon as possi.
BILE, the preservation of the public credit,
and the abolition OF sectionalism, and
the restoration of peace and prosperity
to the Union.
y This is q platform broad enough and
strong enough for all the liberal. minded
citizens of South Carolina to meet upon
and help maintain the supremacy Of the
party which has formulated 1t. The
Convention was in session only about
nino hours, and We hazard nothing in
aaying that never before was so much
work 80 we'll done by similar political
body in South Carolina in the same
length of time. .".i

A Runaway Train.

LYNCHBURG, Va. June 3O.-On &C.
count Of the failure of the air brakes to
work, the Virginia Midland morning
express ran at an uncomfortable rate OF
speed on to the bridge over James River,
one and half miles north of this city:
and a corner of the smoking car struck the
upright girders, throwing it from the track
The trucks of the car dragged the
sleepers away for distance of one hun
dred feet, and the Washington and New
York sleeping cars fell through the open
ing into ten feet of water, and gradually
sank. Conductor William King, who
was on the platform of one of the cars,
was thrown into the river, and although
he had two ribs broken, he swan to the
cars aud helped the passengers through
the windows. Most of the passengers
were taken out through the holes cut in
the ventilators at the top of the cars,
to which the water finally reached.
There were about forty passengers in
the sleepers, and all were saved. After
the water had covered the top of the win
dows, Mrs. J. S. Far'len pushed her two
months.old CHILD through the window
and held it above the water until rescued,
and then she came out the same way.
The passengers are being cared for at the
hotels. Trains Kill be delayed two days.

The Democratic National Convention,
which meets in Chicago on next Tuesday,
owes it to the country and to its own
self.rcspect to pay no more attention to
John Kelly and bis hcnchmen than to
any other member Of the Convention.
The repeated efforts TO conciliate him
have Disguised the country and demor.
allied the party, for it IA far from in
spiriting to see great national party
trucking to n single political trader, who
has repeatedly thwarted and deceived
them. Kelly is no credit to the Demo-
cratic party, and the better portions of
the organization have long felt humilia-
ted at the attituLs which has been as
sumed towards him. it is neither good
principle nor good policy TO continue
longer to consult the preferences of such
q man. We believe the time has come
to retire Mr.. Kelly. We can get along
better by fighting him than by keeping
him in apparent accord with US, whereby
he has the opportunity to sell US out and
prove treacherous to the party. If he is
discarded by the party his treasons will
not be so damaging or influential in de
termining the results Of elections. by q
proper fight We believe that Governor
Cleveland can be elected without John
Kelly. At least we are satisfied that he
will be stronger without him than any
other man we can nominate will be with
him. Therefore, we favor nominating
Cleveland and Hoadley, John Kelly to
the contrary Notwithstanding.
