CHARLESTON, s. c., Sept 5.--The demo-

aud the biennial hegira to the state capitol
has already set in. While there is no tan
gib.e eGemy in the field, it is generally CON
ceded that there will be a sharp fl sht ia the

administration is led by B. r. TiIlmln, bel-
Ter known rs 1.-The F1,uers' Mo e." No

that Moses Tillman has several available

For Richardson. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.
Anti Richardson 800. .............. ........ilS
This leaves three counties to be accounted
for
The most important issue, however, Is
that OF the system of party nomination for
state officers. Tn TillmaniteS favor the
primary plan, which, ii adopted, will almost
entirely disfranchise the lower counties in
the state This is the way it works if tho
primary plan is adopted for nominating
state officers; Pickens county, with popu-
ton Of say 5000, would cast more votes
than Berkeley, with population CT 10000,
for the reason that the whites arc
in the majority in Pickens. while
they are in the minority in Berkeley.
In other words, the primary plan of nomi-
mating state officers would give tho upper
counties of the state entire control OF too
state government and leave the lower and
middle counties entirely out in the cold.
Toe feeling between the two sections is not
of the most cordial character, and this is
the danger to the party. No man can tell

CHARLESTON, S. c., Sept. 5.-The farmers
of the state are making hard fight against
the bagging trust. No cotton is received at
any of the ports that is not packed in jute
bagging, and those who have to sell their
cotton to the factors and shippers at the
seaportS are therefore absolutely at the
merry of the trust. Fortunately, However,
quite number of cotton mills have been
established in this state within the past ten
years owing to the state law which exempts
new manufactures from taxation for ten
years
The grangers of Oconee county met a day
or two ago and sent committee to inter
view the president of a cotton mill in that
vicinity The outcome of the interview
was that the mills agreed to buy the cotton
in any kind of covering but boards. The
mills in that section Of the state use, per-
haps, 1900 bales of cotton a year, and
should all the mills in the state agree to the
arrangement. the situation will be consider
ably improved, at least from the grangers'
point of view. There are about twentY-six
cotton mills in the state, which use, perhaps,
100, 900 bales of cotton per annum.
