sCHARLEsroN AND THE MOUNTAINS.
The News and Courier, speaking edito-
rally Of the effort to interest the citizens
Of Charleston in the Carolina, Chicago
and Cumberland Gap Railroad, says:
ssAt the informal railroad conference
which took place in Charleston on Thurs
day. It was declared that it was to the in.
tsfest of the City of Charleston that
Earnest and immediate support shall be
given the projected railroad from Aiken
In the direction of the mountains" The
projected railroad in question is the Car
olina. Cumberland Gap and Chicago
Railway, concerning which Gen. Johnson
Hagood, the president, gives the public
some highly interesting and important
information this morning.
As projected, the Carolina, Cumber.
land Gap and Chicago Railway will run
from Aiken, IS. O., to Lexington, KY.
The Carolina division, from Aiken to
Pickeus Court House, is 127 miles, of
which IS miles are graded. 1t is estima-
ted that for quarter of a million dollars
the Carolina division can be made ready
for the rails. The rails will cost about
100000. To complete the road from
Aiken to Abbeville will cost, it is esti.
mated, about $685., 900.
Gen. Hagood explains very clearly the
value and importance of the section OF
South Carolina forming the triangle OF
which the Greenyille and Columbia Rail.
road and the Savannah River are the
sides, ard the Columbia and Augusta
Railroad the base. This triangle con-
tains one.fifth of the area of the State.
It Is pierced by the Augusta and Knox
Vile Railroad, which is now running to
Greenwood and to Laurens Tue whole
of this northwestern triangle is at this
time under the control of railroads which,
by reason of their interests elsewhere,
are hostile to Charleston. By building
the Carolioa division of the Carolina,
3 Cumberland Gap and Chicago Railway,
or q part Of it, the railroad barriers be-
tween Charleston and the northwestern
section Of the State will be pierced.
Charleston, we are confident. takes a
deep interest in the project, and we feel
justifed in saying that, upon proper
explanation of the value Of the proposed
road. q considerable amount of the obli-
cations of the company can be disposed
Of in this State. The better plan, in
our opinion, is to concentrate efforts, in
the first place, on the completion of the
srosd from Aiken:to Abbeville. This will

il urging the submission of the aues-
ton of prohibition OF no prohibition to
s.he voters Of Anderson County this
) year, ne thought the whole controversy
migdt be determined this Summer with
out jar in the political affairs Of the
.County-that the people themselves
might settle the matter once for all, and
that when we came to the election next
year, in our primaries there would be no
i issue as to whether a man favored or
opposed prohibition. That it would be
( as completely settled as the Stock Law,
OF any other established law. By the
failure Of the bill to pass at the last
session Of the Legislature, = is assured
I that the question, unless ayertedby some
management, will go squarely into our
next primary election. The large, intel.
Sligept and influential class of our citi-
zens Who favored prohibition are thor.
soughly satisfied that majority of the
people Of this County want prohibition,
and as they cannot get the opportunity
to- vote upon the matter, they will un-
duubtedly run full ticket from the
Senate down IN our next election to test
The matter, fit can be settled in no other
way. This, wethink, is to be avoided, it
.
possible. In order to do this We think it
would be good policy to organize the
friends Of prohibition throughout the
County, and hold q Convention some
] time this Spring, and provide for an
election after The crops are laid-by.
This election would have no authority of
law, but We could appoint three citizens
! of high standing to conduct the election
at each precinct, and let them keep and
returna poll list showing the votes polled,
and make affidavit as to the result, giving
q clear showing as TO the result. If We
can secure afall attendance at this election
there would be no doubt as to the result,
and 4 proper showing to the Legislature
would secure the enactment Of the desir-
cd Regulation. We would be glad for the
citizens Of the County to express them
selves upon this subject, in order that ne
may take counsel together as to the best
policy to pursue at this time. Shall We

move on or stand still? If We go on
can ne secures a large turnout of our
people to vote in an election which may
tgbe ordered 4 If so, then We think the
question can Be disposed of before the
next County canvass opens.

Prohibition Campaign in Ebert Coun-
ty, Georgia.

Mr.. EDITOR: Elbert County in Geor-
gia greets Anderson County in South
Carolina, at a time when both are consid-
ering and approaching a vote on the
question of prohibition. We in Georgia
are indebted for valuable help in our
campaign to old Carolina, from the fact
that Hon. H. G. scudday, of Anderson,
was with us on Tuesday last, with shoul-
der to the wheel, working for the success
of this grand cause.
On Tuesday, the Srl instant the Court
House in Elberton was crowded with
large number of the best citizens of the
town and County, in mass meeting as.
sembled in behalf of prohibition.
Speeches were made by the above elo.
uuent Carolinian and by Rev. DR.. Ivy, of
Athens, Ga, both of whom struck strong
aud heavy blows for their side, eliciting
enthusiastic applause. The audience was
carried to q man, rs everybody present
voted in favor of prohibitiun-no one
voting against it.
The outlook for the success OF this
movement in this County is fine. 1t ia
thought the majority for prohibition will
be between two and three hundred.
This is question that ought to be sell
tied by the suffrage of the people, for
when settled that way, then there is no
appeal. 1t is the will of the people, and
we abide by the will Of the majority. If
whiskey was legislated out by the Gener-
al Assembly, there would be room for
complaint; but if the people by popular
ballot vote it out then it is settled.
We have heard the objection that the
agitation of this question makes split
in the ranks of The solid Democracy.
Such is not the testimony in our State
the old Democracy of Georgia stands
square, and is not harmed by such an
issue. Such an objection to prohibition
is a mere subter uge-no logic or sense in
it.
We return thanks to our sister State
and County for valuable aid in tho ad
dress of Mr.. Scudday, who won many
friends while here. There was another
Representative of your State in our midst
on the 3rd instant; but we are sorry 10
record that while the FIRST named was the
honored orator of the day on great
moral question, the other could be found
upon our streets arguing against prohibi-
tion-siding with the saloons.
We trust that when this issue is decid.
ed that old Elbert can extend her broad,
warm hand across the ripping Savannah,
aud greet old Anderson with a hearty
grasp-and thus, more closely united by
common victory, the bond becomes
indissoluble.

It seems to us as ii the Anderson Leg.

their constituents want to know of their
action on the temperance question. Ii
it is the right of the people to petition,
it seems that it is their right to know

It seems to US that the Press and Ban

REGISTRATION
iFROM An OCCASIONAL CORRESPONDENT OF THE TIIBUNEl
PHILADELPHIA, Nov 1.-The campaign which
closed last night in this city and State has been OF I'M
usal interest for an off year The general feeling
among Republicans is that their ticket will be elected
not by any such majority Mr.. Blaine had, but by
good solid majority sufficient to show tina. the party
still holds its own in Pennsylvania The strongest fight
will Of course be made by the Democrats against Quay
for State Treasurer and Rowan for Sheriff. The Com
mttee Of One Hundred attempted TO attack Mr. Rowan
but its chairman made the singular brnder OF referring
to him only paper-hanger and to his Democratic
opponent as &" a high-tOned gentleman" which Of
course lad the immediate eitct Of arOusing the Gu
thusiasm OF the working people in Rowans favor. 1t
Is not believed that Quay be beaten although lie
may loose some Republican votes in this city. AS to
the eo;iiOn of the Republican candida es for City
TeasIer and Register OF Wills there does Lot TO
be 9ly serious dOubt.
The work of Democratic reform goes on merrily at
che Custom House. The Democratic Collector is
making charges assigning for his acts. Aud
yet, If the Civil Service law is OF any force, these
discharged men are governed by its provisions. A
careful record is being kept OF these cases, and they
Will be properly presented in due time to the Senators
Of this State.
fhe Democratic clubs are still supporting Harrity
Tor Postmaster and Campbell for Surveyor There
seems to be a lu III the fight TOR the Marshalship.
The Naval Officer H. b. Plumer. OF NenangO
County assumed the duties OF his office last week He
has not yet made any changes.
"Ihe News" says that the Republican CITY Com
mee has found the registry lists scores Of names
In nearly every ward that do belong there In the
Fourth Ward l6s fraudulent registrations dscov-
cred Some OF the men here referred TO have neglected
to pay their taxes and some have removed from the
division IN which they registered. The same
'hing' 10 less extent is found IN other wards.
