FULL SPECIFICATIONS.

After the paragraph in arother COL
umn on the subject of bribery had
been put in type, The ENQUIRER re-
ceived the following from Mr.. j. NJ.
Sims, of Sharon, who is well-known
throughout York county as respon-
sible man:
SHARON, September 9, 1898.
Editor of The Yorkville Enquirer:
J. J. Jones said to me on Thursday
that w. O. Guy, treasurer of Chester
county, had offered him one dollar if he
would agree to vote for w. A. Barber,
and also dollar each for all the tes he
would get for w. A. Barber. J. j. Jones
says he will made affidavit to this fact.
w. o. Guy called me to the telephone
yesterday evening, and in the course OF
of the conversation mentioned the Jones
incident to him. He said that it was a
lie. This morning w. o. Guy called me
to the telephone and, in effect, made the
following statement: 81 have been think
ing over that matter we were talking
about yesterday. Mr.. Jones said that a
vote for Barber ought to be worth 90 cents.
told him that vote for Barber would
be worth ST." j. M. SIMS.

LET us DO LIKEWISE.

There are something like $50 names
on the poll list for this precinct. Why
can't we poll up vote of $50 at the
least for Barber? The voters are here
if they would only turn out.-Chester
Bulletin.
That is the way they are talking
down in Chester, and we can see where
they are sensible. Let us do like wise.
On the Yorkville precinct club roll.
there are about 1000 names, and oi
these about 800 are still residents Of
the township and can vote next Tues
day if they so desire. In the first
primary only $50 voted. Scattered
about over the township there are
about 241 delinquents. Surely Mr.
Finley's friends know who these non'
voters are. Let every citizen of the
township make it his business to beg
and persuade them to come to the
polls. The bringing out of a voter in
York who would not have otherwise
voted, is just as good as the winning
of a vote in Kershaw or Chesterfield

conclusion that its garrison duty in
foreign ports shall not continue to be
done by volunteer troops who enlist
only for short periods and who may
not be willing to bear the brunt OF
service all the year round in tropical
climates. 1t is, therefore, proposed to
gradually dispense with all the volun-
teers soon after congress assemblies.
All volunteer service will cease by
Limitation of the terms of enlistment
as soon as the proclamation of peace
shall have been made by the president.
A close estimate made at the war
department of the number of soldiers
who would be required for garrison
duty in Cuba, Porto Rico and the
Philippines and for the station in the
posts in the United States, shows that
Uncle Sam must have $4,000 mel.
1t is, therefore, proposed to ask con-
gress to make standing army for the
country of $4,000 on the peace basis,
instead of $4,000, the number since
the Civil war.

FATAL ACCIDENT.

Senator w. B. Love was in York.
vile ON Thursday, and while here
gave the reporter the particulars of a
fatal accident that occurred to Mr.
James A. Sanders, of Olive, on last
Monday.
Mr.. Sanders was engaged in hauling
sorghum cane, and on coming to q
particularly difficult place in the road
had some trouble with his team. As
the result of the trouble, he was
thrown off the wagon and run over
the wheels passing nearly Iengthwise
across his body.
Mr.. Sanders was veteran of the
Confederate war, and was severely
wounded at the battle of Seven Pines
AS the result of his injuries last Tues
day, DR.. Love found it necessary IL
make careful examination for broken
bones, and while doing so he discover.
ed the Federal minnie ball in Mr.
Sanders's thigh.
From the time he sustained his in.
iuries, Mr.. Sanders continued in great
pain up to Tuesday afternoon, when
he died. Mr.. Sanders was good citi'
zen and was highly esteemed in the
community in which he lived.
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1898-09-10
BE SURE TO VOTE.

1t is the duty of every citizen Of
York county who may be entitled
to the privilege, to vote next Tues
day. In our humble opinion it is
the duty of every citizen of the
county to vote for Mr.. Finley fol-
congress; but anyhow, it is certainly
the duty of everybody to vote.
There has been much bad weather
and farm work is badly behind. II
next Tuesday is a good day, many
farmers may be tempted to stay al
home and work. 1t is true that there
is much to do; but the Importance Of
voting next Tuesday is paramount.
We have had number of reliable
reports from Chester county within
the past few days. We do not believe
that Mr.. Barber is altogether as well
thought of in Chester as Mr.. Finley is
in York. This is not intended as in
disparagement of Mr.. Barber. Mr..
Finley has been in public life for q
much longer period. But most of the
Chester people who voted against Mr..
Barber in the first election are laying
aside their personal preferences and
supporting Chester's candidate in the
second election.
The election of Mr.. Finley means a
great deal for York county. 1t is not
likely to be matter of two years only.
If elected next Tuesday, Mr.. Finley
will, no doubt, remain in congress for
years. There are many benefits that
he will be able to confer upon the
people of his district, and York county
will be sure to come in for her share.
There is strong probability that
Mr.. Finley will be elected. His
chances are better than ever. But the
fight that is being made in behalf OF
Mr.. Barber is not to be ignored. MIR.
Finley's friends cannot afford to leave
single stone unturned, if they can
help it. They want to get for him
every vote possible, and all of them
should continue at work until the
closing of the polls Tuesday evening.
Every citizen of York owes it to
his county to come out and vote. We
hope that not single one will neglect
his duty.
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1898-09-10
last primary, were as follows

We do not pretend to say: or lntl-
mate, that the citizen of York county
who votes against Mr.. Finley in the
next primary will be disloyal to the
party. If we thought so, we would
not hesitate to say it. We recognize
that each individual had a right to
vote in the first primary for whom
he pleased, and he will also have the
right to vote the same way in the
second primary. But it does seem
that each voter owes great deal
more to York county than he does
to any candidate, and now that York
county has so overwhelmingly indica-
ted her chcice-2,2S2 to $50, it seems
that every voter should treat with
due Difference the wishes of a majority
of his own people, and brush his per-
sonal preference aside.
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1898-09-10
THE SECOND PRIMARY.

1t is the intention of THE ENQUIRER
to publish the returns from the second
primary as soon as possible after the
close of the polls next Tuesday after
noon, and consequently no papers can
be mailed before Wednesday.
In the case of the the first primary
THE ENQUIRER kept open house dur
ing the collection of the return. We
would be glad to do the same thing
again; but this involves labor and loss
of time that we prefer to avoid.
For instance, the tabulati IN of the
vote of York county is a big task
With all the returns in, with all posi-.
BILE facilities prepared in advance, and
without interruption, it would require
the work of three or four experts fol
about three hours. The labor is of 6
particular character, and the least in
terruption is very trying to those who
may be engaged in 1t.
During the progress of tabulation
numerous queries came in to us ovel
the phone. We would, of course, bt
glad to answer them if We could bu
this is impossible. Nothing can bt
definitely known until all the boxes
have been heard from and the total!
footed up. This last mentioned opera
ton is easily the work of half or three
quarters of an hour. For us to at
tempt, therefore, to answer eact
question while the returns are coming
in, would be an interminable task.
In the case of the first primary, the
entire force of THE ENQUIRER wa:
kept up all night. The first paper
was not printed until about 5 O'Clock
Wednesday morning, and it was no
until about o'clock that printers anc
editors were able to get to bed. The
la;e hours were due largely to the loss
of time caused by Interruptions O
friends who were eager to keep uE
with the results as fast as obtained.
In view of the fact that there will
not be quite half as many names te
tabulate in the case of the second pri
mary as there was in the case of the
first, the count will probably be much
more rapid, and it is quite likely thai
we may be able to present full report
by 10 or II o'clock. If we can, We
shall certainly do so. THE ENoUIREF
will be issued at the earliest moment
possible after all of the returns are in
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1898-09-10
Here is BENJAMIN RYAN Tillman

- Here is Benjamin Ryan Tillman
defending Secretary Alger and knock
ing the filling out of the plans of the
Democratic statesmen who are trying
to make an attack on the conduct OF
the war the basis of the party cam
paign. In addition to that, we find
recorded in the dispatches that on
Tuesday he visited Portsmouth, n. H.,
with Senator William f. Chandler, and
was rendered a banquet by Frank
Jones. Our raging, roaring, rampant
leopard seems to be tanning as rapidly
and sweetly as any animal that ever
pranced in the political menagerie.-
Greenville News.
This is some more of the same kind.
Tillman is exactly in the same boat
with McLaurin. He sees clearly that
the administration has made good
JOB of the Spanish war, and he knows
full we'll that if the Democrats make
an issue on this point they will get
left. The Greenville News and The
News and Courier would both prefer
Mckinley and the gold standard to
Bryan and free silver. They have
virtually confessed the fact. Tillman
and McLaurin are both where they
have been all the while, and it is
because of this, more than anything
else, that our esteemed contemporaries
are trying to muddy the water.

McLAURIN AND MCKINLEY.

1t does not take much of a preteXt
to start some of the papers to going
a gainst Senator McLaurin. There are
several papers which seem to have
pet grudges against the senator, and
whenever they get an opportunity
they avail themselves of it. Some
do not even wait for a favorable
opportunity.
When, a few weeks ago, the Wash
gton correspondent of The News and
Courier quoted Senator McLaurin as
saying that Mckinley was the greatest
president since the days of Jackson,
and that he ought to be reelected

MAJORITY RULE.

One recognized principle of the
Democratic party AIT which there
can be but little dispute, is that of ma
jority rule. 1t is correct principle,
and, in fact, the very mudsill of party
government.
The recognized units of the state
and of the congressional districts are
not the individual voters but the re-
spective counties. In all things rep
resentarive, the first question is the
desire Of the majority of the voters in
county, and the voice of majority
of the voters in county s the voice
of that county in the affairs of the
state.
In the recent primary election, for
instance, a majority of the voters in
York county expressed their choice OF
four representatives, and of treasur-
er. There were large and respectable
minorities against these choices; but
as good Democrats these minorities
have accepted the result with the
same good grace as if they had been
on the side of the majorlies.
1t seems to us that the same rule
should apply with equal force to the
congressional primary. Each voter
had the privilege of voting for the
candidate of his choice. An over
whelming majority of the voters Gen.
tered upon Mr.. Finley, and it seems
to US that just as the county candi-
dates who received majority of York
county's votes are the nominees OF
the party, so should Mr.. Finley now
be looked upon as York county's
candidate for congress, and in the
second primary, next Tuesday, York
county should stick to him to a man.
The votes against Mr.. Finley, or
rather for the other candidates, in the
last primary, were as follows:
