POLITICAL NOTES.

A Cleveland Colored Campaign Club,
composed of colored citizens, has been form
ed in New York.
George w. Flagg, of Melbury, Mass, re-
signs as Secretary Of the Republican State
Committee because he ecannotsupportB Blaine.
of seventeen daily newspapers in New
York city, fourteen support Cleveland and
three Blaine.
The Democratic State Convention of
West Virginia nominated a State ticket,
and endorsed Cleveland and Hendricks and
the National Democratic platform.
Logan, like Blaine, wants the tariff to
be the issue. Gov. Hendricks says lad
ministrative reform and personal integrity
in public office are to be the leading issues.'
- Ben Butler, the candidate Of the Green
hackers, the AntiMonopolists and Trades
Unionists, claims that he will control ,5OO,--
600 votes. The Prohibition party count
upon casting 1,0OO,OOO votes.
-Govornor Hendricks has been more than
thirty years in public life. He has been a
Governor of State, Senator and Land Com
missioner, and never a word has been said
against his private character or official in
tegrity.
Blaine orators are talking of flooding
the South with their oratory. Well, let
them come. They will have to give and
take. We think the South can scare up
some speakers here and there that will be
able to hold their own.
When Governor Cleveland takes his seat
on the 4th of March, 1885, his place as Gov
ernor of New York will be filled by Lieu
tenant Governor Hill, as the term OF office
does not expire until December 81, 1888.
The Governors term in New York is for
three years.
The National Labor Party's Convention
for nominating Presidential candidate has
been postponed until September 1st. The
executive committee of the party assign as
the reason for this postponement that they
desire to await the letters of acceptance OF
Ben Butler, as nominee of the Greenback
party, and Grover Cleveland, the Demo-
cratic candidate.
The Democratic House passed by an
overwhelming vote the Mexican Pension
bill. The Republican Senate loaded it down
with amendments excluding the Southern
soldiers practically. Let this be remember
ed, The men in the South who did most
of the fighting in Mexico are not to be con-
sidered by Republicans when pensions are
freely dispensed.
In the State elections held in 1882 the
total vote polled was but 7,GS9,594. The
total male population of the United States
over 81 years of age in 1880 was l2,57ll,-
1884, So there We're 1881, 1888 voters who
did not go the polls. The Democrats had

ADDRESS
TO THE DEMOCRATIC VOTERS OF YORK
COUNTY.

TO THE DEMOCRATIC VOTERS OF YORK
COUNTY.
The year 1884 comes to you laden with
fair prospects for Grand National Demo
cratic victory. If the Democratic party is
true to itself, Grover Cleveland and Thom-
as A. Hendricks will be the next President
and Vice President Of the United States.
The reform of abuses and the reduction of
expenses in the general government, a
wholesome regard for local rule, the absence
of party prosecutions and prosecutions, add
ed to non-interference in State affairs, will,
we believe, be some of the great blessings
that will result from such a victory The
people of South Carolina and of York cOun-
ty will experience the good effects in a
freedom of thought and action which be-
longed to our ancestors, but under the op-
pressions of Republican rule have been sup
pressed during the last quarter of centu-
nv. Civil Service Reform will be felt in ap-
pointments of persons to United States offices
who are native and "to the manner born,"
rather than those who are not only foreign
to her soil, but hostile to her interests. In
general the undisturbed and peaceful rule of
the Anglo-SaXon race will be sustained and
respected, rather than resisted by the policy
of the Federal Government. The impor-
tance of this campaign is thus presented to
you, fellow citizens Of York. We urge
YOU therefore to come forward with your
suffrages and add your strength to attain
these great results.
The enthusiastic denomination, by accla-
nation of your State ticket shows how unit
ed are the people of South Carolina in State
affairs. This should stimulate and encour-
age you.
The primary plan of election has been
re-adopted by your County Convention.
The wisdom of this system has thus receiv-
ed your approval after the test OF expert
ence. Let ''absolute fairness" in these cleo
tions be our watchWord for otherwise, di-
visions and dissentions will follow. Har-
moniOus and united you are invincible in
maintaining honest home rule. According
ly, we urge upon the managers Of each and
every precinct in the county the impor-
tance of complying strictly with the words
of the constitution, and allow no one to vote
who is not in sympathy with the Democratic
party of South Carolina.
The time of holding the primary elec-
ton has been appointed the places of meet
ing in various portions Of the county have
been ordered, where you can have the
opportunity of hearing expression of opin-
ion from those who aspire to represent
YOU. We ask you to lay aside your duties
at home for day and attend these meet
ings, and we predict a glorious Democratic
victory in November next, from which you
will enjoy the blessings of pure and hon
est government.

low this example, it will be heavy blow
to Mormonism. The Church of the Latter
Day Saints gets its chief strength from
these new converts. They are obedient to
all it's orders and commands; they are
aliens to American ideas and institutions,
and probably entertain unfriendly feelings
to our government. The church can de-
pend upon them in all contingencies. They
fill its Golfers, carry out its behests and
swell it's population. If this source of re-
inforcement be cut off the strength and pow
er of the Mormon church will be weaken
ed. This new movement against the Nor
mons abroad will help this Government in
its struggle with these infernel and danger
GUS enemies of our republican institutions,
these Knockers at decency and morality.

course by the welfare of the county, and the
will of majority of those voting in the

Mr.. Stanyarne Wilson, of Spartanburg,
has scheme. 1t consists of a proposed bill
to be presented to the next Legislature pro-
viding that the State taxes paid by rail
roads in Spartanburg county be returned by
the Treasurer Of the State to the Treasurer
of the county to be used as sinking fund
for the payment of the bonds issued by the
county in aid of these roads. The Nescs and
Courier objects to the scheme, and shows
that the money taken from the State Treas
ury to relieve Spartanburg and other coun-
ties with similar Indebtedness would have
to be replaced by extra taxation on the
people of the entire State.

ron have sailed from st. Johns and are eX-

be welcome. Lieut.. Greedy, having, by the
advice ofhis surgeon, declined any public re-
ception on account of his physical inertness,
will be taken to Newburyport at such time
and in such a way as he may prefer or the
secretary of war may direct. The remains
of the deceased will be retained on board
the vessels and landed at Governors Island,
N. Y, if so directed by Secretary Lincoln,

LIEUTENANT GARLINGTON.-Ther is an
attempt on the part of some Northern peo-
pie and papers to make Lieutenant CARING
ton responsible for the final hardships and
calamities of the Greedy expedition. The
New York Tribune, for example, says :
brilliant as has been the success of the re-
lief expedition conducted by the Navy,
Americans have cause to regret most bitter
ly the gross mismanagement Of the previous
season, which has been attended with such
disastrous results. If Lieutenant CARING
ton had not retreated with precipitate haste,
but had displayed self-possession and pru-
dence, the deserted garrison might have
been spared heart-rending suffering, and
Lieutenant Greedy might have brought
home his men with him."
Fortunately for Lieutenant Darlington, he
is not without powerful advocates and de-
Tenders, even at the North. The New York
Times, which is, in all wholesome respects,
the superior Of the Tribune, boldly repudi-
ates the charge of the latter paper and fixes
responsibility in different quarter, thus !:
"In three years out Of four Fort Conger is
inaccessible Those who attempted to re-
open communication with Greedy were
handicapped by the carelessness and stupid
ity of the Chief Signal Officer, Gen. Hazen,
who has retained his position in the face
of the severe castigation of courts OF inqui-
ry and of his superior officers. 1t has been
conclusively shown that the failure of the
Darlington expedition was caused by his
miserable blunders. Upon him rests, in q
large measure, the responsibility for the
deaths of seventeen brave men who would
now probably be alive and we'll if that ex-
pedition had been successful" An i'm
partial public will make up its verdict.
Lieutenant Darlington cannot be we'll sacri-
feed to save Gen. Hazen. We prefer to be-
lieve that neither is really to blame but, of
the two, Darlington is safer from just re-
proach.-AuyatstU Chronicle.
