The itbple may have been honest in
their belief that it was better MT to
DISTURB the present condition Of all irs.
In this city eviiently many men who
professed to be for Bryan voted gaiu,t
him AS to the management # the
campaign the Republicans were utterly
powerless to do anything to bring
about the result which took place in
this county-they were outgeneral,d
at every point, and he silent vote lid
the business. The Democratic man
agement headed 10y he Hon. Jacob
NJ. Newman, proved themselves
worthy OF the confidence Of the people.
They conducted an intelligent and
wide-awake campaign. The young
men We're on hand and the labprcr,
and mechanics did splendid work for
Mr.. Bryan. Now our duty is to get
all our people together aud resolve to
carry this town against Republican
and negro rule. Nominate first
class man for Mayor Nominate wide
awake mea for Aldermen and we will
sweep the deck, dead sure.

Today South Carolina leads the South in

Every county In the state seems TO have
some kind 81 factory, and several counties
have twenty or thirty. The whole state Is
prospecting, labor Is we'll employed aud the
towns are growing rapidly.
But the condition OF South Carolina as
result OF her factories Ia now an oft told
story and is doubtless very familiar to
the members of this convention.
The main object OF my talk lie to inn
press the point that factories must be Sc
cured in Texas by citizens and property

the same conclusion.
