FOURTEEN WERE RIGHT.

If General Grant still lived, in the
full possession of his faculties, he
could not express himself upon the
great question of the day more
strongly and polntedly than he did
in his second inaugural address,
March 4, 1878. 81 do not," he said,
t'share in the apprehension held by
many as to the danger of govern
ments becoming weakened and de-
stroyed by reason of their extension
of territory. Commerce, education
and rapid transit of thought and
matter by telegraph and steam have
changed all this. Rather, I believe
that our Great Maker is preparing
the world in bis own good way to be-
come one nation, speaking one lang
uage, and when armies and navies
will no longer be required"
The question of expansion at that
time in its immediate practical bear
ing was OF comparatively trivial mo-
ment. 1t is related 10 a small island
In the West Indies which Denmark
was willing 10 sell to this country.
At that time the country at large
took no interest in the subject.
The United States has had twenty
four presidents, and with the one ex-
ception of Grover Cleveland not one
of them all ever opposed the exten-
sion of our national territory, and no
fewer than fourteen of them left
records in support of the expansion
policy. In one way or another each
one of the fourteen declared by deed
or word what General Grant so well
expressed in the words quoted above.

Since the painful and forced decapi-
tat on of the McLaurin Legislative
ticket, the "McLauIinites" have been
ass duously spreading the report that
twas not necessary to run anybody
for the senate against r. B. Campbell,
as he would obey instructions if nomi-
mated and vote for A. J. McLaurin, if
so instructed. 1t is tribute to their
sanguine temperament rather than to
their judgment, that they can conceive
OF being able to pass such an instruc-
ton, and proof of the adage that
drowning men grasp at straws." But
no comfort, however heeting, can be
found for them in this hope. Mr.. Camp
bell is no Office seeker endeayorlng TO
thrust himself upon the people Of the
county and willing to sacrifice princi-
pie il order to secure the privilege of
representing the county in the State
Serate. No single cause was more
potent in inducing him to make the
sacrifice of representing the county in
the Senate if the people desired it.
than the fact that his candidacy would
be a protest against the endorsement
of 4, J McLaurin's gubernatorial adj
ministratlon, ana to suppose ae would
sacrifice one of the cardinal principles
upon which his candidacy is predicted,
to the people who have been unable te
defeat bin, is supposition that eau
be entertained only by those who do
not Anos X Campbell, his lofty char
act''P, aud his devotion 70 right and

THE QUESTION OF LEADERSHIP

The question is not one of king

The principles of a faction can
only be Judged from the charac-

Mr.. Percy is the acknowledged
leader of the auti-McLaurin forces
N this county, and the reason ia
that he is a man Of the highest
character, Of proved ability, and
perfect equipment for the exact =
ing position which he fills SO well.

SOMEWHAT INCONSISTENT.

The Greenville Democrat of the
LIST in a column of grumble COM
mences thus:
"The Democrat hopes to see
the campaign of the next two
weeks conducted on legitimate
plane. There is no necessity for
ordinations; whatever may be
said to the contrary by partisans
on either side the two opposing
legislative tickets are composed
of good, capable men"
This is commendable. Now
read the following extracts from
the same article and see how the
preacher has parted from his text:
"The Campbell ticket is the
creature Of gold standard adyo-
cate and is composed largely of
gold bugs within itself.
1T behooves every taxpayer in
the county 1.-THE editor pays poll
taxi to vote this ticket as opposed
to the Campbell ticket, the un-
questioned creature of an able rail
road attorney who never neqleots
the interests of his clients. /"
''H,,"Hadful as it is to be rail
road attorney, it Is ,r,leaSant to
know that this one is faithful to
his clients at any rate.
How IL this fer IN .amicable
"But the boss of the county |
committee and the creator of the |
goldbug Allen ticket decreed that
a mass convention should be held
in GFeenyille and his Will was
obeyed by the majority of the
committee. We believe that such
Hagrant acts Of bossism should be
rebuked."
Every man in the county will
know at once that this last shot
was directed at the editor of the
Spirit; and although it is embar-
RAISING to be held up before the
mob as boss, we will Just draw
the sting from the charge by &C.
knowleding its truth, and let the
heather rage. we didn't want the
public to find it ont yet awhile,
but as the Democrat has given us
away it is no use to deny the ex-
tent of our influence any longer.

MLAURIN GRATITUDE.

The McLaurln men-or rather
that faction of a faction which
Mr.. j, NJ. Jayne, claims t
dominate, have given strong eI-
smpele of their weakness, thel
shilly-shally policy, and their baH
faith by ruthlessly and disgrace
fully throwing over and sacritic-
ing the Hon. Joshua Skinner.
This action must not be mis-
understood. In the first place,
Mr., Skinner is q man of acknowI-
edged ability, Il good writer, a
strong speaker, man personally
popular, and who would unques-
tionably he a power in the legisIa-
ture, While never 4 fanatic or
violent partisan, he early took up
the free silver side of the contro-
Fersy which ragged two years ago.
He was, as he says in his pub
lishad letter, well known to be in
,1,"nord with the MoLaurn sup
porters on ceii,;;ssin important sub,
iects. Knowing these facts, on end
beng well aware TINT he was =
stronger, ADLER man than any other
they could command, Mr.. Skinner |
was earnestly solicited to accept a
place at the head Of the McLaurin
ticket, and did So in all good faith.
What was the gratitude he met
with from the "leaders' Of the
party with which he SO unfOr-
allied himselfI They
discovered that Mr.. Campbell was
he choice of the county for Seps
or. They found that the peopIa
would not be blinded and made t.
ollow them in their thick anC
hin support of McLaurin to tho
etriment Of the county's interests
hey whoever "they" may be,
r under whatever authority they
ct) thereupon demanded that MI.
kinneF should retire from thei
cket-should put his head on tn
lock and have it chopped of
,on M he igpominiously fred from
Ieir company, to w., 'eA us Pses
ice had given its only streng.D
I'd significance.
1t is believed that the real lead .
s of the McLaurin faction saw t
g mistake that was made by {
cir deputies, after it was too
te; for Mr.. Jayne and his aides,
armed at what they had done,
called for help to bolster !
their weakness, heal their dis J
nsions, and man the pumps of |
leir sinking ship. Advice came, |
1t the cause was past help. Drs i
ulaney, Sillers, Clark, Moore, t
9ssions and Chiffon came in &
lste, but Mr.. Skinners's ewes
ere opened, and no pleading suf-
ed to prevail upon him to allow
s name to remain upon the ticket :
to hide from the public the
lameful treatment with which a
} had met !
What Mr.. Jayne and his com L
ittee will do under these circum- a
ances remains to be seen; but it
pretty safe to say that in any $
ent they will act for themselves s
