iIoyt Headquarters Opened in Columbia

Colonel Heyt's friends have already
begun ar active and vigilant campaign
for the second primary and seem Der-
fectly confident Of landing their man.
Headquarters have been opened in CO.

charge, and the principal work will be

NelrS and Courier.

It was thought in view of the request
Ex-senator Tillman that he be scratched
by those who did not like his course in
this fight, that it would be exceedingly
interesting to publish q statement
showing how many times he was
scratched by the voters of the State.
The fgures as made UP this morning
show that the total vote FOR Governor,
as the News and Courier this morning
had it, run up to 1000 and of this
3,577, which would show that he was
scratched by $4,000 voters, very far
from being the majority some expect
ed. 1t appears from the latest returns
that Senator Tillman received 8,749
less than the Governor.
The basis of the figures is that the
aggregate vote for the Governors is
perhaps the largest cast and then Sena-
tor Tiliman's vote. as far as reported,
is compared with it. The smallest
haps in Charleston, while in Beaufort
the scratching" is perhaps as heavy
as In any county and the Richland
vote shows Q very heavy percentage of
scratching"
1t will be interesting to figure oft
what proportion did the "scratchinp in
each county" Senator Tillman's prom
1se, which was questioned, that he
would not accept the office of Senetor
1t he were not voted for by q majority
OF the total vote cast was entirely safe,
and everyone who knew ANYTHING
about the affairs of the State ought to

seemed to think that with no opposi-
ton q considerable portion of the vot-
ers were going to cut him and make
his election doubtful under his prDnise.
A comparison Of the votes for Gov
ernar and for Senator shows the fol-
lowing number Of "Tillman scratch
