Sharp Practices.
The recent successes of the Repub
licans in Indiana and Ohio liave de
veloped some shrurp practices which
it becomes -the Democrats to consider
and to moot them. Since countiug
t the votes, it has been discovered that |
jjear ibweuly thousand negroes bad
.Jbean Sported into Indiana and Ohio,
>?o? that in many counties t here weve
more votes in the box titan there
wove voters in the counties. In one
county in Indiana the excess of votes
o>er the number of male adults, over
twenty-one 3-enrs of oge, was nearly
five thousand.
By the recent telegrams, accident
ally falling into the hands of Chair
man Bornum, it has been dis
covered that the Republicans propose
to overrun Floiida, and, perhaps,
other Southern Spates, with repeaters
?from Northern cities with the hope of
securing the electoral vote for Gar
iield and Arthur. Such practico is
common at the North rmong Repub
licans, as are all other frauds and
low political schemes. They were in
troduced into South Carolina during
"the days of negro supremacy. Voters
'were transferred from one preeinct to
another to suit the emergency of the
'occasion, or were instructed to repeat
'at as many voting places as they
could reach.
To prevent the Indiana frauds from
being repeated there and in many
other states and the impoitation of
Northern repeaters to Southern
States to cany the election by fraud,
becomes tbo duty of the Democratic
party on next Tuesday. What is
true of Stales and counties is equally
true of individual precincts, and
watcblulppss on the part of election
managers ynay save the county. The
opposition, with which we have to
?deal \a cunning, dishonest and will
stoop to any rascalities that will
serve their purposes best. In Or
angebuag Buliver, Webster aud Liv
ingston lead it and their purpose is
to carry the election "by fair means
if they can, but if not, by some other
other."
Our Work.
The last stage of the campaign is
now reached. By mass meetings, and'
public speaking the Deoiociaoy of|
Oraugol qrg baye been aroused, the
voters have been excited to the prop
er enthusiasm and the party under
Ihe admirable organisation of Capt.
S. Dibble stands a unit all over the
county. This, however, will not car
ry the election or continue democrat
ic rule in Orangcburg ; and if nothing
innre be done, the race so auspicious
ly begun and sue" essfully conducted
to die present point, will end in a
hopeless defeat on Tuesday. The re
maining days are pregnant with great
ruppuiibibillies ami event3 ,to every
democrat in the county and should be
giv'en ilp to quiet and determined in
dividual*1 ctTort. Much tbun yet be
done if every Democrat will go to
ftork and do his full duty lo bis par
ty, his country ami his laniily. Let
every sacrifice be made and w\tb an
indomitable courage lcl every man
Address himself lo the t::sk before
him. Our people should realize the
fact that voles must be carried other
than those polled directly by Demo
crals. This, and nothing else, should
be tbo work from now until six o'clock
on next Tuesday evening. Voles we
must have, anil can only be bad by
Curncst and persistent work on the
part of every Demount in the coun
ty. Let every man vote himself and
determine \o tarry another with him,
ami tho woik is done?victory won
tiiUi democratic rule perpetuated.
This is >iot impossible, indeed noth
ing is, to a people determined lo be
free.
' Our CoiTgros6rnan.
No manias ever been move true to
ibc'truat reposdd in h i in. tunn Mr. tM.
V. O Concor in discharging hisollleiul
duties os a member of the United
.states Congress. This is espcccially
t^uc with regard to hid colored con
stiluehts and wo are glad t<Tsep them
taking steps to acknowledge tins ob
ligation to him in the Freed man's
Saving Bank matter. Thousands of
dollars of their hard earnings and sa
vings have been stolen frojn thorn by
the Republican party a?d, if they ev
er get their stolen money back, it will
bo through the untiring efforts of Mr.
O'Connor. E. W. M. Mnckey is a
Republican and differs not a whit in
moral character from the men who
perpetrated the theft. This tho col
ored voters of the Second Congress
ional District know and will so de
clare on next Tuesday at the polls.
Our wbtte citizens cannot afford lo
allow Mr. O'Connor to be defeated,
because thcit interests, so faithfully
cared for by him, will, in that event,
fall into the hands of Mnckey, a man
who places greater stress upon party
affiliation and obligation than upon
personal honor or (he interest of his
constituents. Therefore, whilst we
rally around our State and County
tickets let us not forget the Congress
ional candidate. Let victory be in
scribed upon our banners all along
the line.
The Slate Fair.
Our readers will bear in mind piat
the Twelfth Annual Fair of the State
Agricultural and Mechanical Society
will be held in the city of Columbja
on November 9 to 12. All entries
should be made lo Secretary Hollo
way, at Columbia, either in person or
by letter by the firs', of November
with a view to have proper places as
signed for articles, stalls for horses
and cattle, pens for sheep, goals and
swine, and coops for poultry. An en
trance fee of 82 i3 required on all en
tries except in Ihe household, needle I
and rancy and art departments exhi
bited by the ladies. In addition to
tue very liberal premium offered by
the Society, the Board of Trade of
Columbia will supplement the amount
by a list of premiums of S3?0 lo he
paid in gold ; subject, however, to the
rules and regulations of the Society.
Among the premiums thus offered
we notice a premium of 810 each for
llie finest hoy and gill baby under
twelve months. We hope Orangeburg
will compete successfully for the ?20.
The distinguished orator and states
man, Hon. D. W. Yoorhecs, United
States Senator from Indiana, is to
deliver the annual address.
Tho Meeting at Gleatons.
Editors Oranyeburg Democrat:
The following resolutions were
unanimously adopted at a meeting of
the Easteilin's Mill Democratic Club,
held on the 23d instant.
Resolved, That we as law abiding
and peaceful citizens hereby deprecate
the recent difficulty in this county at
Gleaton's precinct in which one
Caesar Harrison was accidentaly shot.
Resolved, That the Masses of the
democratic party deplore the accident
and hold themselves blameless'for its
occurrence, and that they will do all
in their power to ptocure order
throughout the County.
Resolved,, That as a token of our
sympathy in behalf of the suid Caesar
Harrison we take up a contribution
from this club, and forward the
amount lo him us soon as practicable
and recommendother democratic clubs
throughout the Country'to do like
wise.
Resolved, That these resolutions
be 'published in the County papers.
On response to the third resolution
a cash fund of ten dollars was raised
instanter, and Mr. N. M. Stdloy Sr.
appointed to take the amount to the
wounded man. It is proper lo state
that only twenty members of the
club were present, or no doubt, a lar
ger amount would have bjen raised.
The cause of the difficulty which
I wave rise lo the foregoing resolutions
uie these: A white man who had im-,
,hi bed loo fieely of mean whiskey got
(engaged in a quarrel with a negro
[dining iiie preliminary arrangements!
I between the radicals and democratic !
lenders l?r a joint discussion at Glea
ton's poll on the 23d instant. Who
the nggrc'Ssoi was in llie quarrel I do
not l>now. TJio white man drew his
pistol and presented it at the negro,
who gave back in a defiant a.id threat
ening manner! Mr. Winfield Chiik
who was close by lushed'upon the
while , man, seized him around the
' waist anil endeavored to drag him out
j ol Iho'crowd, when bot h' fell to the
j ground. It was during tho s niggle
j w hieb followed that the pistol was dis
i charged. Mr; Clark in his efforts lo
I wrench the pistol Iron) the itit\n held
, his knuckles ground in the dust, whyi)
by some means the pistol was dis
charged, the ball taking effect in the
I thigh of Caesar Harrison, who had
nothing lo do with the fracas.
I During the melee, and while Mr.
Clark held his man, a burly mulatto,
I who after wards gave his name to the
writer us .1 'tics, s'ruck the man Mr.
jciatk held, several severe blows,
beaiing the skm Ironi his checks and
inflicting an ugly contusion beneath
one eye. The negro w ho struck these
blows was the one w\io bad quarreled
with the while man. He perpetrated
two falsehoods ubout tbo affair before
be left the ground. No. 1, was that
he struck the white man twice while
ho held the pistol presented at him,
be struck him after be was seized by
Mr. Clark. No. 2, was that the white
man, aflcr lie got on the ground
raised bis arm soveral feet in a hori
zontal position and fired. The pis
tol was discharged while the knuckles
of tbo man who held it were ground
in the dust.
These facts cap be established by
Messrs Winfleld Clark; G. Lawrence
Sallcy, Aliek S. Eastcrlin, and as
many colored witnesses.
