Correspondence Greenville News.]

Correspondence Greenville News.
PIcKENs, January 1s.-Jeremiah
Looper, one of the champions of the G.
O.P., was in town yesterday and in
formed your correspondent that the
Republicans would have 'sbig speak
ing'' at this place on Saturday, the 5th
of February. He said the object of the
meeting was to discuss a reform in
politics and the Southern situation;
and that DR.. Clayton, of Columbia, I.
D. Durham, J. II. McLane and Wal
ker W. Russell would be the speakers
of the day.
He also said that the farmers man,
B.. R. Tillman, of Edgefeld, would be
here to speak for his side.
We expect to hear some great things
from the ex-Greenbackers, and they
will doubtless tell US of some wonder
full things that Harrison proposes to do
for the South.
Mr.. Looper also had a printed paper
of some kind which I did not see, but
which I am informed was petition to
President-elect Harrison asking for the
repeal of the internal revenue laws; for
free ballot and fair count; for the re-
peal of the stock law.in this State, and
many other like things. A great many
Republicans believe that Harrison can
do anything, and that after he is in
augurated he will run the executive,
judicial and legislative departments Of
every State in the Union.
