Esrnerx' Alliances.

gentlemen, Of Sumter county, writing
scout Ssene-s' alliances has the following to
say:
Nis not one IDEA institution, nor do the
members believe that any one thing IS the
cause of the depression in agriculture, so
painfully evident to even the casual observ-
er. Its mission is to teach the farmer the
grand possibilities within his reach, ard
how, by studying his resources and paying
close attention to his business, he may be
able to make his farm thing Of Joy and
gladness to his heart.
To this end each Sub-Alliance will De a
I've farmers club where neighbors will meet
and compare notes, relate experiences
and thus be enabled to avoid each others
mistakes and profit by each others success.
It's members viii be greatly benefited by
taking and reading agricultural journals,
reading other newspapers and Watching the
fluctuations of the markets, and by taking
advantage of the information thus obtained
by buying in the cheapest and selling IN
the highest markets. This frequent meet
ing together viii produce that attritlon Of
mind which cannot but quicken the facul-
ties, brighten tie intellect and above al
create that bond of sympathy which will en-
able US to feel each others needs and wants
and unitedly work for their attainment.
Our trade arrangements will be made
upon the basis of aggregating our purchases,
and buying at wholesale where heretofore
We have bought at retail. In our efforts to
build up the farming interests no legitimate
business will be opposed, but that hidra-
headed monster, monopoly a!i0s trusts, we
will fight to the bitter end
If this outline Of our objects will help to
remove the prejudice existing in the minds
Of some against the Alliance, shall fee: full
" paid for the trouble.

ESumter Watchmaa.1
Evils OF Primary Elections.

There is considerable talk IN this county
about the use o. whis&ey at our recent pri-
maries. This is grave and serious charge
to make, and it should not be allowed to 60
ont to the world unless it is positively So.
Where, when, upon whom and by whom
was whiskey used in this county to carry
the election? Let US have the proof. Mere
report about this thing wont do. Because
somebody says that somebody told some
body that whiskey was used in this county
to carry the election for this or that man is
manifestly unjust unless there is sufficient
evidence to establish the charge.
It is hard to believe that the Democrats Of
Sumter county have dcgenerated to as low
leyelas ever did the negroes IN the dark
days of Radical times, and yet if it can be
proven that whiskey was used ut our pri-
maries to cary the election for this or that
man, then We are rapidly going from bad to
worse sure enough and our political affairs
are in most damnable condition.
Simply because q man goes to the polls
under the influence Of lquor that is no
proof that be has been aosed By candidate
or his friends in order to obtain his vote.
Some men will get drunk on election days,
and vet their votes are not for sale and can
eot be bought Therefore all this talk about
whiskey being used ct our primaries may
or may not be so. Unless convincing proof
is furnished, who knows?
In connection with the snhject of using
whiskey at the polls IN exchange has this
to say on the primary mode Of nomination:
"The primary election is becoming more
and more demoralizing every year. While
We like some of its features, yet it is prov
ing itself an enemy to the church, to NOR
ais, and the peace and dignity Of county
and State. The good results from the pri-
mary anticipated by its votaries, while in
measure have been seen, yet these are over
Thelmingly over balanced by bad results,
which, if not checked, will continue to grow
from bad to worse, aad finally drive our
best citizens from the polls. We see no way
cut of the difficulty except by return to
the convention plan. and giving to each
precinct an increased epresentation-say
one delegate for every ten members Of q
club. This, however, IS matter for TIE
people to decide. They have seen the evil
results Of both plans. But. n all candor,
from moral standpoint, we must say the
people have been injured by the change
from convention to primary"

Township Railroad Bonds.

The Supreme Court of South Carolina has
rendered a decision IN the case of Floyd ct
al VS.. Perrin, Treasurer, sustaining the de-
cision Of Judge Norton at Abbeville in Feb
ruary last, in suit for the recovery of taxes
paid under protest for the payment of inter-
est on the bonds issued in aid Of the Green
Vile and Port Royal railroad. Judge Norton
held that the act of the Legislature author
izing the issue Of said bonds Was unconssi-
tutionsl and the taxes Illegal. An appeal
was taken to the Supreme Court, and IA rer-
dering a decision Chief Justice Simpson has
a lengthy opinion sustaining the lower
court, and Associate Justice McIyer concurs
and writes separate decision. Judge Ne
Gowan dissents and writes dissenting
opinion. In the beginning Of his opinion
Judge Simpson says that the constitutional
Ny Of the acts of 1882 and 1885, the one to
charter the Greenville and Port Royal rail
road and the other to amend the charter,
are directly affected. In the body of the
act of 1885 certain townships were declared
bodies polite ard corporate. This tie
plaintiffs claimed TO be uncon itational as
the title of the act did not indicate its con-
tents. Il was further claimed that for the
Legislature to vest corporate authority IL
townships and enable them to collect'taxes
for other than corporate purposes was IN
constitutional The Chief Justice was not
inclined to give weight to the first charge OF
unconstitutionality, but the second Won the
battle for the plaintiffs. There was nothing
to show, the opinion said, whereby the IS
suing of these bonds could benefit the town
ship, granting it to be body corporate. In
conclusion he said: eve woald very gladly
have come to different conclusion, but it
was clear there had been violation Of sec
ton S, article 8, Of tie constitution and the
bonds were VOID. The Judgment OF the
circuit court holding the acts u question
unconstitutional on account of the absence
of corporate purpose in the townships in
corporated, aud that therefore the tax as
sessed and collected by the defendant was
illegal and should be refunded, should be
affirmed, and the same is hereby affirmed.
The opinion practically declares one mil
hon dollars OF township railroad bcDds in
this State invalid
