For Congress.
General John Irattonl has been
nominated by Richland friends as a t
candidatb for a seat in Congress. Ills
nomination has been favorably spoken
of by papers' outside of his district.
The high character borne by Qon.
Bratton and his unswerving dcvotion
to the best4nterests of South Carolina
are suflielont to show that should he
bo.selected to represo.nt the district it
would redound to the welfare of his
district and the whole of South Caro
lina. Gen. Brdt ton has never sought
,offlce, but has filled positions of honor
and trust most acceptably to the State,
and filled an unexpired term in Con
gress. In thli Instance, indeed, his
can'didacy is the spontaneous outburst
of an admiring constituen cy, which
prompted them to bring his name
before the public for such a position.
'Fairfleld will, as .to a man, give him
its most enthuslastic support and do
all its power to further his nomination
and secuto his election. There is no
man in the district, with all duo re
af cot to other candidates, who could
better or more faithfully represent it.
Gon. Bratton nceds no conilenda
tion at our hands. He is known to
the people of the whole Stato and dis
trict as a mnatf who has faithfully served
his State In war and poaco, and one
who never expected nor asked for a
.reward for his services. Ills fitnoes
for any position ,to which the people
may call him is unquestioned, and- It
is but natural that they should call
up1)on1 himu to represent thei in the
councils- of the Nations. We doubt
not, ttherofore, that his candidacy will
receive the approval of .tho people of
the district.
'The County Con1veuntion.
'T ho County Convention has met,
performed Its work and ndjonrrned.
The following Is it synopsis of its
work:
Delegates elected to the State Con
vention ; opposed to nogliating State
ofilcors at the forthcoming Conven
tion; opposed to priuary In State,
and the Congressional and Judicial
districts; expressed the oplnibn that
four offices which are now appolitivo
shall be made elective; and, finally,
t'he submlssion of an amnendthent to
-the Constitution that all county offices
shall be elective...
This latter resolution will have to
be adopted by two-thirds of the clubs
of the county before it becomes law.
If It is so -a'doptea elections will be
-lheli for every oflice in the county, In
cluding .trial justices, auditor, trOas
ure r, jury commIssIoner and super
visor of registration. Whoever is so
chosen will be recommended to the
Governor for appolntmnopt, astd being
the choice of the people he wvill doubt
less heed their desire.
'Governor" McLane.
Prof. RI. Means Davis has written a
letter to the Boston Transcript show
ing up J1. Hendrlx McLane's history
from the beginning to the' end, and
showing at the same time the utter
falsehood of all that lhe has written to
the Transcrlpt about South Carolina
politics. Prof. Davis' article is short,
comparatively, but it is full of telling
points-and damaging facts concerning
the great apostle. Ev'ery word that
lie wrote was true and much more
could be told.
J. ilendrix McLane answvers this
artiqle in the TranIscript by reiterating
the false statements he has made before
and by saying that all the statements
concerning him aro "charges, Indi
vidually and collectIvely, most Infa
mous lies, imd uno one but the basest
Bourbon lickspittle would tell them,
and no one but tIhe most consummate
dastard would repeat thema after they
were told." The "Honorable" J.
Hiendrix McLauno thus gets on a high
horse at the charge that lie wvas a fire
eating, "nigger"-kilng D)emot:rat in
1876, and-that he only 'left the party
because lie could not get aii office and
lived some years upon money fur
nishied by the Republican party.
The Transcript also comes to lisa
rescue wIth a bitter partisan editorial
reflectinig upon Prof. Davis.,
We, whio live in his own county,
know his ,record aund that of Prof.
Davis. The latter sands as high, If
we condescend to compare the'm, above
the former as the heavens are above the
earth'and ho- needh no defence at any
mian's hands. But we want to tell the
Transcript and J. ilendrir MoLano
wvhat the peopio of his own cou1nty,
who know him better than mmybody
else, think of him.
The opinion held of J. Hiendrix Mc
Lane by his fellow-citizens of his own
county is that he is an unconscionable
liar. rennen,de an,1 hypocrte, ..as hi
ocord has proven. We. would iiot
ay so much attention to such A, despi
able being as J. ~ Hendi:x McLane
veroit not for the fact that his utter
,ncos recoive so much credouce from
lorthern papers, and we shall be
areful that both the Transcript and
ho "Honorable" Mr. McLane shall
eo a marked copy of what is thought
if him in his own county.
