Washington, July l5.-J G.
Hunter has captured the post-mas-
tership at Union, ). G. His

dictcd in these dispatches, went to

and four hundred If the 2,TOO
voters in Aiken county came out
today to hear the senatorial can
didates. The court house was
comfortably filed. The old time
enthusiasm was missing. Mcssrs
Evans, lrby and McLaurin each
spoke for an hour or more and
when Mr. Mayfeld's time came
the crowd was SO weary and had
scattered so for dinner that he had
the mercy and good sense TO
speak for only ten minutes.
Gov Evans said he regretted
that there was 50 small IN audience
The issues that are now up have
not been publicly discussed for
years. Mr. McLaurin, he said.
had by acts rcpudiatcd the true
Democratic doctrine and platform
and was Republican under De
mocratic cloak. McLaurin's 5 DO
Icy, he urged, would only rich
the few and make the cost of
things higher to the masses. Nc
laurin should come out like 9th
ers, he urged, rs n protection Re
publican, for it was wrong to
serve rs n Republican in Demo
cratic livery. The Republicans
never gave the Democrats ANYTHING
unless they sold out or cave ten
for one. According TO the papers
McLaurin is doing everything in
Washington and it would pay to
ask the government to let the
State have the $4,000 and BRING
the others home. He said he
would say nothing about Gov Ell
lcrbc's failure to take the endorse
ment of 40, voters over the
mcasly politicians. lie never ask :
ed for the appointment. If Nc
Laurin's poncy is carried out it

more on necessarics.
He commented on negro pa
per IN Washington urging McLau-
rims appointment because of his
helping to defeat the Jim Crow
bill.
He then ut length discussed the
Peruvian cotton schedules and urg
ed that there could be no possible
good in it to the farmer, except to
pay more for his socks, and hose
and clothes in which these cottons
are used. Only 100000 bales of
long staple was raised in this coun-
try, and three fourths of that in
Georgia, and the idea was to tax
the masses to help a few Sea Is
land ''niggers'' and planters. To
show that McLaurin was pro.
tectionist, he said McLaurin voted
for a 800 per cent. tax on wool
against the 55 per cont. tax in
the Wilson bill as proposed by
the committee. As To Tillman's
position ne did not think IL the
same as Mciaurin's, but if it were
lillman was wrong and he would
tell him so an vote against him.
He spoke long time on the cot
ton schedule and said it gave the
north the very club it wanted with
which to rob tho south ON the com
pensatory tax and on bagging and
ties. 1t was like selling out for
IL mess of pottage with the south
ern masses getting nothing. The

Aiken to see how the reform
movement would take in this sec
ton, and after his visit told Till
man all was safe. He spoke of
taking in new blood and that Mr.
Henderson was the biggest catch
since 1890 (applause); said he
wanted to talk as Reformer,
Democrat and farmer. Talking
OF his being the daddy of Evans.
he said when Tillman wanted FL
Ierbc for governor, he had told
Evans he should be governor, he
made Tillman quit Ellcrbe, 90 to
Evans and elect him. He said he
had always been opposed by "the
cilGue' in Columbia, Mayfeld
was a child of Shell-so an or
phan; Duncan of the devil, and
McLaurin of Gonzales.
He said The State misrepresent
ed him and alleged that it was an
injustice and pcrvcrsion to have
said he favored factional strife
when ne did not, This is where
the word "not' was printed to
read "nOw." He said The State
took advantage of him at all times
As to his dispcnsary views he said
he wanted the system given fair
chance. 1t was far better than
open barrooms. He helped make
the law and believed the system
right yet. If there was anv rot.
tenness it should be remedied. and
if any dishonesty, punished. He
would not charge either. He
objected to features of the law.

The campaign had been forced
on and n horrible schedule arrang-
cd by Col Neal and others.
Talking on he said if Tillman
had taken his advice he would
have had Il wooden man run against
McLaurln. He explained at length
why he did not run last year and
other political acts, heretofore
stated. He predicted that there
would be n Republican and De
mocrat!c party in this State. and
in timc'the suffrage plan would
be cursed. Talking of the Re

In 1880. if Gary had lived he
would have been elected in 1882
and there would have been no
occasion for the movement that
avenged Gary's assassination. He
found Tillman, proposed to him
Mt Dan Tompkin's house to run
for governor, and Tillman readily
assented, and he was elected. He
would only have made the first in
the Democratic party. He said
he would tell what kind of Demo
crat he was and that he was not
the sort as the governor of the
State who had sold out the Reform
party to the Gonzales party. He
then went for the governors
course in reprimanding and dis
missing pli,~. and not repri-
manding Gen Watts. A repri.
mand was to abuse and cuss out.
Eilerbe's course was, he said,
harsh, undemocratic and unwar-
ranted.' (Applause.) Ifthe con

he had ever been sasscd bv a

Mr. W ID Evans did as much as

lrby'S hurrahing about defeating
grand old men, he would remind
nm that lrby defeated Wade
Hampton, who had done much
for the state. He voted for Irbv
as II party man and his only regret
was that lrby did not use his abb
lity and brains to fill the place As
he had hoped he would. He said
Gov Evans had been unfair to him
in attacking him i'm his own home
and trying to maks capital out of
his opposing the Jim Grow car
bill. \ majority of the Demo
Gratis defeated the bill and he op-
posed it because of certain fea-
lures in it. His people knew how

ever tried to make him appear as
opposed TO white men and women.
lie now and has always rented his
lands to white tenants, although
he could no doubt get more from
colored tenants, but he was doing
what he thought right and what
his people before him had done.
His very vote he contented was
strictly on the party platform and
he has never been a protectionist.
He thought it robbery to get more
money than the government want
ed. He cited as an illustration of
his position. Suppose the people
voted for graded school system
and carried it and he paid his taxes
to support the system, would there
he any sense iii his keeping his
children away from the school
because he did not believe in grad
ed schools! SO with the tariff.

BOITING AND BOITING.

We find the following paragraph i'm
the editorial columns Of the Richmond
State:
The Hon. Henry NJ Teller, who led
the first bolt from the Republican M
tional Convention in the history Of the
party. at St. Lou's lat summer. re-
ceived a magnificent v.ndication at the
hands Of the Legislature OF Colorado
yesterday. when he was returned TO the
United States Senate by the almost
unanimous vote of silver Republicans.
Democrats. and Populists only three
votes out Of ninety-seyen being cast
against him.
His return TO the United States SEN
ate by such vote is q well-recognized
endorsement OF the stand OF great
leader in behalf OF a great cause.
We had supposed from the States
editorials during the past several months
that it regarded boiling as the unpar-
donable sin. But our contemporary evi-
IDENTIFY approves and commends the course
Of Senator Teller in boiling the Repuh-
lean Convention. We must conclude
therefore. that. in the estimation OF tho
State, It Is great crime for any advo-
cate OF the gold standard TO bolt his
party when that party declares for free
silver, but that Il is the very essence
OF patriotism for free-silver man to
bolt his party when that party declares
for the gold standard.
