CHARLESTON, s. c., August 6.-The
most intensely bitter political campaign
ever held in this State ended at WATERFORD
yesterday in the midst of drenching show
er of rain. A complete collapse of the
platform, and lot of promiscuous knock.
Acknowledgment fights and epi-
thets, which have been banded at the
meetings of late. were not exchanged from
the stand-at least, not lie direct-but the
crowd. which numbered 1000, lndulged in
hot words quite frequently. In one of the
scrimmages an enthusiastic straightout had
his head broken by Tillman town marshal,
handled.
The whole State is glad that the cam
paign is over. The result is that Tillman
has 187 of the 320 votes in the convention.
But the fight is not yet over, and the
straightout Democrats do not give up. They
will fight Tillman to the bitter end.
Another Alliance candidate has appeared
in the field in the First Charleston district
in the person of h. A. Metz, of Lexington,
who has been indorsed for Congress

Metz is a lawyer. but is understood to have
taken the subtreasury tonic. 1t is also be-
lieved that W. J. Talbert, the Alliance
State lecturer, will be run in George D.
Tillman's district unless Tillman will swal-
low the subtreasury tonic. This makes five
Alliance candidates already in the field,
with two districts to hear from.
