SCHUMPERT WON THE RACE.
Newberry Celebrates the Event with
Speeches and Music.

Complete returns from the primary
election for Solicitor were slow in being
received, but the citizens of Newberry
had assurance that Col. 0. L. Shumpert
had received a good majority in the

sembled on the Courthouse square, and
after music by the Newberry Cornet

porch, and was introduced by Gen.
Pope in felicitous speech.
Col. Schumpert said that be was
deeply touched by such manifesto
ton rendered him by the citizens of
Newberry; that he was gratified at the
support he had received at the hands
Of the business men of Newberry. He
had gone into the canvass almost an
entire stranger in some portions of the
circuit; but he had won the fight. His
heart was too full to give utterance to
his feelings on such an occasion, and
he thanked the audience for such
demonstration in his honor.
Col. George Johnstone was again
called upon, and responded in an ex-
cellent manner. He was followed by
Mr.. w. H. Wallace and DR.. S. Pope,
