BORE OF THE HOUSE OF COMMONS
A Member Who Drove Everybody Away

A Member Who Drove Everybody Away
When He Began to Speak.
rBY CABLE TO THE DIsPATCH.l
LONDON, Feb. 2O.-Sir George Campbell,
NJ. P, who died at Cairo this week, was the
bore of the House of Commons. He was IN
private life the most reticent of men. In the
House of Commons he talked on every pos
sible occasion. On the Indian subject he
was well versed, but there was no limit to
his talk, and members would not listen to
him.
He was, however, appreciated in the re-
porters' gallery. The men all dropped
their notebooks and trooped off to some
other room or bar whenever Sir George was
successful in catching the Speakers eye.

"knows on" in South Carolina as
yet, and I fear thati in the different
evolutions through which it has
passed in attaining its present
importance, it has got greatly
mixed up with the elements of
"nigger" rule, Radicalism, Repub-
licaism and last, but not least,
Independentism. Should South
Carolina have to suffer from
the birth and Development Of
another third party we hope that it
will be composed of purer ele-
ments that those cussed mongrel
isms' and "rules," from whose
combined aud corrupting influence
our State is now almost suffering
riot and bloodshed, when she
should be enjoying the benign
influence of her educational
powers.
Put the blame of the disgrace
full conduct at our campaign
meetings where it belongs, and
rid our State of Independentism,
and all will be place and happiness
and prosperity very soon.

IMPORTANT RULE.

Under the rules of the party as
recently amended, the club rolls of
the respective clubs are made to
constitute the registry list, and no
Democrat can vote unless enrolled
at tleast five days before the pri-
mary, that is to say by the Oath of
August.
In this connection we would
suggest that it would be we'll for
every club in the county to appoint
or elect committee whose special
duty should be to see that every
Democrat entitled, should have his
name down in black and white on
the clnb roll to which he owed
his allegiance. AS this enrolment
must be complete at least five days
before the primary there is no
time to lose, and the clubs should
act at tonce. The following is,the
exact phraseology of the rule:
"No person shall vote at any pri-
mary election unless he has been
enrolled on a club list at least (5)
five days before said primary cleo
tion, The club list shall be in
spected by and certified to by the
secretary and president of the club,
and turned over to the managers
to be used as the registry list

CAMPAIGN POINTS.

The following, changing names
of townships, would be a fair rep
resentation of the relative strength
of Tillman and shappard in Edge
field county:
Reading and hearing so much
in the Sheppard and Orr organs
about the great and many changes
now being made in the different
townships in this county from
Tillman to Sheppard, we took a
trip all over the county and found
all this amazing report to be bosh /;
and all the names with very few
exceptions were opposed to Till
man two years ago; hence very few
changes. 1 found twenty-five
Sheppardites in Paris Mountain
township out of 236; seventeen in
Bates out of 5000; four in Highland
out of $50; ten in CLASSY Noun
tain out of 200; seven in Cleve-
land out of $50; eighteen in
Butler out of 240; fifteen in Austin
out of 300; twe2ty in Fairview out
of $50; seven in Oak Lawn out o
325; twenty in Dunklin out of 240;
one hundred and thirty-ive in
Grove out of $50; fifteen in CAN'T
ont of 25O: twenty in Chick
Springs out of 306; fifteen in
O'Neal out of $50; fourteen in
Saluda out of 200; and we think
in Greenville they will get.700 out
of 1900. You will readily see by
this that the Sheppardites have
got 1923 votes out Of the 4548 votes
that voted in the last primary. In
the last primary Mr.. Bellinger got
S75 votes out Of the 4547, which
is 153 votes less than we have given
them this time. So they have only
gained I53 votes, and these front
Col. Orr's factory at Piedmont and
Greenville city. We think these
1853 votes must have cost the
Ants at least $4,000, as they had
a census taken in each township
at a cost of $500 yer day. Now,
fellow Democrats be on the watch,
don't let them catch you mapping.
Their race is lost. Gen Earle told
them this before they started this
fight, and but for Tillman's urging
that suit against the banks (which
was eight he would not have had
any opposition this time.
He was right and the while
democrats of South Carolina are
going to re-elect him by greater
than before. The peo-
pie are right, this country belongs
to them. They paid for it when
money was it's price; and they
paid for it when blood was its price,
and from this time forward the
people propose to control it instead
Of banks, railroads, factories and
apitalists.-Greepville Democrat /

DEAR SIR: Yours of recent date
to hand, in which you call atten-

ference, and state that Hthe people
of this district are almost unani-
nous in their demand for you"
You also ask me if I will sup
port the demands of the Alliance
and the action of the conference,
to which reply, yes.
I wish it, however, distinctly
understood that I am not q cam
didate for Congress, and that if
the selection of a standard-bearer
were left to me, my choice would
be Senator Evans.
1 recognize, though the right
of the people to choose whom they
will, and make no attempt to die
tate in any way, but Will cheertully
support the man, whoever he may
be, selected by the Alliance, and
upon the same principle, should
that conference, deem it to the
best interest of the people to name
me, it would be my duty to accede
to the demand. Should this be
the case, as you seem 10 think, l
should look to the men who bring
me forward without solicitation
on my part to see that l receive
the nomination at the approaching
primary, as l think is my duty
to see the State campaign though

OF THE HOT WAVE
Thousands all over the Country
PrOStrrted by the Heart.

New York, July 3O.-Prostration
from heat among the workmen of
the williamsburg sugar refinerles
for the past week has exceeded
900. Only two of the large sugar
houses are in full opertion.
Havemeyer's establishment
employs nearly 1,400 men; of
these more then 400, or nealy SO
per cent, have been carried out
since Sunday.
The Brooklyn Sugar Refining
Company employs about four
hundred and fifty men; of these
between seventy and seventy-fve
wero compelled to quit work, and
have been replaced by new men, as
were those in the Havomeycr sugar
house. The changes of temper
ature last night had a good effect
OH the workmen. At Z o'clock
last evcring, when the night shift of
men went on, fifteen workmen were
carried out of the two sugar
houses.
At Z o'clock this morning but
three men were seen who seemed at
all affected. 1t is known that
twelve and possibly more of the
affected men died since Sunday
last, and this morniug it was re-
porteds that nearly eightysix
others were in precarious
condition. The exact information
regarding these cases is lard to
get.
The FRlGHTFuL DEATH RATE oE THE
METROPOLIS FOR THE PAST
oWEEK
New York, July 30.-Fifty
deaths from heart were reported to
coroner to-day up to II. A M. The
weather in this city is not
quite as warm as yesterday. There
is less humidity and slight
breeze.
:, PHILAoELHIA's HEAT RECORD.
Philadelhia, July 30.-The effect
of the terrible heat of the past week
was startlingly shown by the
weekly report made to-day to the
board of health from 10 o'clock
last Saturday till noon to-day.
Health officer Veals issued $40
death certificates. This is greater
mortality than was eyer recorded
by the officer before, This death
rate is greater than when the
epidemies of grippe, or even cholera
smallpox or diptheria scourged the
city.
THE MORTALITY AT BALTIMORE.
Baltimore, July 30.-The
weather to-day has been about
S8 cooler on the average then
yesterday, but the deaths and
prostrations from the heat to-day
are nearly as numerous as those
on any other day of this protracted
hot spell.
Mrs Brown, wife of Governor
Brown, who was overcome by heat
while shopping yesterday and
to be dying last nights
still alive and has fair prospect |
of recovery.
The report of the city health
for the week ended
at noon to-day gives the following
facts: Total number of deaths
for the week 457, under 5 years
224, from SUN stroke 81, cholere
infantum 80, convulsiuns IS.
The number of deaths for the
week of 1891 was
2O7, or ESQ less than for the week
ust ended. and the excess in
mortality is attribated by the
health commissioner to the
unparalleled heat here. Never be-
ore in the history of the city have
here been so many deaths during
he same period of timo.
