TIE CAMPAIGN ENDED.
The Columbia State Names the Winning
Ticket.

CLUEBIA, S. c., Aug. 9.-The Stale
campaign of 1894 is now thing Of the
psst. AS result of the campaign and
the recent meeting oftbe Sigh executive
committee, it is pretty easy 10 see now
tnat By this time next week tue suber-
material contest, as lar as Messrs. Ell
lerbe and Tndal are concerned, viii be
no longer q matter Of interest.
Its pretty generally co9ceded that
the two gentlemen raned ere now
doomed to defeat in the State conven.
tiou next Thursday, aud that Evans is
to be the Reform nominee.
Ifsuch result comes about, thea the
lons-fought battle narrows to square
fight in the general primary between DR.
Pope and John Gary Evans. DR.. Pope's
name does net 90 before the Reform pri-
mary. If such i5 thu outlook--apd
Evans friends claim that their is now no
longer doubt of his receiving tie nomi--
nation-then both Tindal and Elleroe
are barred from going any further.
An entirely new dgkt will be on.
Evans friends will have 20 battle with
DR.. Pope's friends, who will very likely
decline 10 participate ii tie Reform pri-
mariss on Saturday. The vote on Sat-
urday, therefore, will tell pretty we'll
what Pope's strength is roi considering
any other vote which may 60 to him, ii
there be any.
At any rate Pope, und:r the circum-
stances named, will not be cut Of the
race by good deal. He has made, It
is understood, many friends recently BY
his action in kicking cut Of the traces.
Now there IS considerable doubt as te
what Ellerbe and Tindai will do. II the
are gong to kick oot of tie traces they
will have 10 do it by tomorrow night, for
the Reform primaries take plsce Satur-
Gay. II the results Of these primaries
throughout the State can be ascertalue 81
en- Saturday night, the result OF the State
convention On Thursday next car he
told.
There ls a good deal of silent disss:.-
isfaction among the general primary ad-
vocates with regard to the Sligh commit
tees action. This may, or may not
develop into sentiment strong enough
to induce Tindal and Elletbe to w!thdra"
their pledges, already ilec.
An Evans man yesterday, leaving cu
| Of the matter entirely any consideration
Of Pope's chances. said that the whole
thing was going to result ia the nomina-
ton and election of the following ticket
and if the element of doubt as 10 Elier-
bs's course and Pope's primary race was
removed, all would doubtless agree with
him:
For Governor-Jobn Gary Evans.
Lieut.. Gover1or-Dr. W. H. Thinner
man.
Attorney General-O. W. Buch snan
State Treasurer-W. T. G. Bates.
Superintendent of Education-W. D
Mhy6sld.
Comptroller General-A. W. Jones
Secretary Of State-D. H. Tompk;ns
A6jutant and Inspector General
John Gary Watts.
; Now as to the effect of the campaigr
on the Senatorial fight, Tillman's friend:
| clam that he CONES out of the stuml
battle stronger than ever. The genera
opinion, however, is that the stump
| work has been more beneficial to Butle
than to Tillman. Buffers friends re-
gard his chances as much better than q
any time heretofore.
AS to the effect of the campaign OF
the dispensary outlook, it is said by on
who ought to know, that Go7erno
Tillman is fully satisfied, by his test
of the crowds at the meetings on the dis,
pensary, that the great body of the peo
pie demand the dispensary; that be ex
poets them to send Legislature here
which will re-enact the law snd pass
metropolitan police law, forcing q lals
number of such police onall cities where
with To enforce the law, and that the,
will enact a law providing for changes
venue in liquor cases.-State.
