THE ONE HOS LAW.

The County Executive Committee
has departed from tue former mode OF
conducting our primary elections, IN
several very important particulars.
There is to he only one box and one
ballot for all the offices to be filled, and
as'we interpret the rule it takes in the
Congressional candidate also. If not,
no provision is made for that election
ut all. No ballot is to be counted for
any candidate unless a candidate for
every office is voted for. For instance,
ifa voter puts in his ballot and in some
way fails to put on the ticket three names
of those who have been nominated for
County Commissioners, and has all OF
the others filled out properly, still that
vote is thrown away and not counted.
Then each candidate is required to
pay the secretary Of the Executive
Committee one dollar to pay for tickets,
and if he fails to pay this dollar no
votes are to be counted for him. This
is done in the interest of economy we
presume.
We cannot see the advantages Of
these changes. 1t seems to nS there are
many objections to this one box law.
1t will be observed that there will be
about eleven names to write on each
ticket, and no doubt, there will be what
might be termed ticket writer's at each
box who will endeavor to fill up the
tickets to suit themselves, but we trust
there is enough manhood left in every
man to fill up his own ticket, and that
he will not omit to put the right names
in the right places so as to have his
vote counted.
The rules are published elsewhere in
full. Read them for yourselves.
Some of the committee seem to think
that there is to be separate box for the
Congressional election. If so no ar
rangement is made for it. The Con-
gressionalConvention adopted the same
rules as governed in 1856, and the
County Chairman of each county was
instructed to have them published.
There can be no question that there
ought to be a separate box for the Con-
gressional election. 1t is not fair to any
of the candidates to have them voted
for on the same ticket with the county
officers, and possibly that is not the
meaning Of the rule adopted, but it is
so construed by many.
We suppose the County Chairman
will send in for publication the rules to
govern the congressional election ifthe
rules adopted for the county officers do
not apply in that case.

The Charleston World wakes warm
over the statement that Capt. W. ~.
Courtenay will be selected as the cam
didate on the Tillman ticket for State
Treasurer, with view of having his
financial influence and ability in fund
ing the State debt, and pronounces the
rumor Munchausen story.
We believe The Herald and News
was the first paper to publish the ru-
NOR. We have only to say that our
information came from one Of the most
devoted admirers Capt. Tilrnan has,
and one who is way up in the inner
councils Of that faction. It may be a
Munclau9en story, but it came mighty

It looks to us sometimes that the
tendency of our people in their IDEAS
and the legislation they are demand
ing is all towards great centrallzeo
government. 1t looks towards wiplng
ont State lines and doing away with
local self.goverment and towards the
building up a great paternal govern
ment at Washington. The Blair Edu-
cational bill was legislation looking
that way, but it failed.
There are two measures before Con-
gress now that tend that way-the
Lodge election bill and the sub-treas-
urv blll-are both looking towards a
centralized government.
And strange to say the Southern peo-
ple, or many of those Of them who
have always been among our most
conservative citizens, nos claim 70 De
among the strongest supporters Of the
latter.
We are inclined to think, however,
that both these measures vii! meet the
fate of the Blair educational bill.

THE COUNTY CAMPAIGN.

The State Campaign is virtually
closed. The County Campaign opens
on Saturday, asarranged by the County
Executive Committee and runs through
the greater part of August. We trust
this county canvass may be conducted
in a friendly and manly manner and
that the voters will be untrammelled
by any caucus nominations or sugges-
tions or any iron clad oath to support
any man or set of men. Let every free
white Democrat assert his manhood
and vote for the best men for the va
rious county offices to be filled, and not
permit any half dozen or more men fix
up any ticket for him to swallow
whether he wants to ornot.
The Herald and News has no ticket
fixed up, but we hope to see good and
efficient officers chosen.
Then let our voters see to it that good
and capable men are elected. The
decision of this matter is in the hands
Of the people and to their verdict all of
us must submit. Then every man
should see to it that he does his duty
faithfully and we'll.
Let every man be true to himself,
his country and his God and all will
will end we'll

Captain Tillman is sail to have
pledged himself to so before the August
Convention and make plea for q State
primary. But he is not a delegate to
that convention, and suppose he was
to make plea before the convention,
could it not be understood with the
delegates that they were to voteagainst
the primary. At Manning the Augusta
Chronicle says that he ''touched very
lightly on the primary system. lie ad-
lnitted that he was for it. but he I'M
pressed the minds Of his supporters that
they had better not adopt it. See the
point. He favors the primary, but says
10 his supporters that they better not
adopt it as they have the thing solid in
convention, and it would be bad politics
to give that away and take chances at
the ballot-box. 1t would not be politics

WE MUST WORK TOGETHER.

lie, Us talk business occasionally ana
take q little rest from politics. we
talk about getting together politically.
That i rirht and sensible talk. We
should get together from business
standpoint, too. If there was conceh-
tration of effort to build up the busl-
ness of our communities, and our county
we would get along better. We should
I've less suspicious Of each other. We
should be less envious. W nat IS d

should be no conflict of interest be-
tween the town and the country.
What helps one will benefit the other.
\ prosperous, q growing and a live
town in any section of country Is an
indication that the country Is prosper
ing.
If we should live in the country we
should be proud to see the town that
is near US grow and prosper. Ana on
the other hand, if we live IN the town
we should in every way possible help
build up the country around Us. we
must work together. There should oe
no antagonism between town ana

ent on one another and mutually ben
eticial the one to the other.
The man who tries by word or deed
to create an antagonism between the
two is IN enemy to both, and IS an IN
iurv to the community III which ne

But YOU had better watch such man,

NO county can prosper unless there

something that must benefit all classes
in the county. 1t is 4 good thing IN

all classes to meet together occasional,

.chaw, of tobacco together 1t is bad
thing to suspect each other. Inc

Under 4 resolution of the Tillman
caucus, the Tillman men met at Trinity
the 23d to vote for members of the Leg
islature and Senate and elect delegates
to the Caucus Convention. There
were about 13 Tillmanites present and
about the same number of Ants. Mr.
II. X. Reeder was called to the chair
and Mr.. J. y. Floyd acted as secretary.
The resolutions passed at the caucus
were read. Mr.. ". q. Abrams moved
that the meeting take vote for men,
Der of the Senate and the members of
the House and elect one delegate to the
Caucus Convention. Mr.. r. II. Reagin
made a vigorous speech against the
club taking any action on the matter.
Said he would vote for Mr.. Tlllman
but did not propose to be gagged in his
other votes, declared the whole thing
to he undemocratic and cutting
loose from the Democratic party. The
chairman put the question and one
vote was cast for the resolution and
four against it. Mr.. Abrams gave the
Tillmantes piece of his mind and
left the meeting amid the cheers of the
Ants. The meeting was enjoyed by
the Ants and we are satisfied the Till
man following is weakening in No. E,
