Vote for StackllcuSe.
Marion Mder.J

Thomas NJ. Gilland, Esq, Of King
stree, has been nominated by the
Haskellites of his county as candi-
date for Congress in opposition to the
regular nominee, Col. Stackhouse. if
the white people Of this district de-
sire to be represented in Congress by
colored man, let part OF them vote
for Gilland and they will have their
wish. Gilland has not the faintest
shade of a shadow OF a chance Of be-
ing elected and every vote cast for
him is equivalent to one cast for Deas.
Colonel Stackhouse is the party NOM
inee, the representative OF The white
people OF the district and should have
the solid support Of the Democracy.
Colonel Stackhouse will make a faith
ful, efficient, and conscientious repre-
sentative The people Of the district
manifested their confidence in him by
nominating him unanimously for the
office for which he is a candidate and
they should give him such a majority
or the fourth Of November that not
even the partisan Republican House
over which dictator Reed presides
would have the effrontery to count
him out. 1t is the duty of every
Democrat in the district to work and
vote for the party nominee. Gilland
cannot be seriously considered as a
candidate and his candidacy is wholly
in the interest of Deas. The latter is
in the field to stay and his purpose is
to be elected if it can possibly be ac-
complished. How many white voters
are there in the district who will help
to elect him by throwing away their
votes on Gillard? Every man who
votes for Gilland votes to break up
the Democratic party, to destroy the
time honored organization which has
given this State as pure and honest
and able a government as the people
have ever had. 1t will be vote to de-
troy white supremacy in the district
and State and 1t Will be giving alo
and encouragement and assistance in
revivinc the old Radical party under
whose wicked and malignant and dis
honest rule the white people of South
Carolina were forced to live so many
years. Endorse and support inde-
pendent candidates and you will help
to restore this party to power. You
have a legal right to vote as you
please but with the fear and dread OF
black radicalism always present with
US the only safe course is for the
white people to stand together in one
solid, unbroken phalanx. Any other
course is fraught with danger and
must, sooner or later, insure the re-
storation to power Of that political
party which for more than a decade
gave this State the worst government
! the world ever saw.

Col. Earle Not a HaSkeliite.

Col. Joseph H. Earle, of Sumter,
was in the city yesterday, having come
| to the city to attend the meeting OF
the state board of health Of which he
is a member, and which met yesterday
at the Roper hospital.
Col. Earle, in responseto an enquiry
as to wnat he thought of the Haskell
movement, replied by stating that be
had already spoken very plainly and
without reserve in the matter. Person.
ally entertaining a warm regard and
friendship for Judge Haskell, he con-
Fsidered that the present movement
was exceedingly unwise, and might
result in injury to the unity OF the
Democratic party Of this state. He
could not, therefore, in any manner,
approve Of the movement.
In discussing the matter, which Col.
Earle did with courtesy and frankness
to the reporter, he remarked, that
when he had been invited to lead an
independent movement il the state,
of similar character to the one now
being made, he had promptly declined
and for the reasons above stated. The
question Of white supremacy il this
state, Col. Earle intimated in conciu-
sion, was paramount to every other
consideration, and any movement cal
culated to endanger this condition OF
affairs would be both injurious and
hurtful to the entire state.-Charleston

tember convention and sought its
nomination, thereby acknowledging
the legality of its organization and
that it represented the Democratic
party. He did not fight Tillman be-
fore the nomination. We believe he
was the only Anti-Tillmanite State
candidate who did not openly do so.
He was so silent on the suhjaet that
many Tillmanites claimed chat lie was
one of them, and he went into the
convention with the strong Tillmanite
endorsement of this county. Since
his defeat, he is the only candidate
before the September convention who
has permitted his name to be used in
opposition to its nominees Gen.
Bonham, and others, though strongly
urged, refused to do so.
Nobody was found who had the
faintest hope that Haskell could be
elected without an overwhelming ne
gro vote. But they urged that this
negro vote was sought in '76. They
overlook the vital difference, that in
'76 white men sought negro votes to
kill negro votes with, and to defeat
the nomination of the Republican
convention In 1890 the negro vote
is sought to kill white votes with, and
to defeat the nominee Of the Demo
cratic party. The negroes refused to
follow Haskell in '76 because they
knew he represented the Democracy.
If they follow him in 80 it will be be-
cause they believe he is opposed to
Democracy. Politics makes strange
affiliations.
