principles, announce ourselves, each, as bound by them,
and, if elected to the legislature, each of us pledges himself
to the carrying through of legislation to put them into
effect:
LOCALLY.
First: The separation of the offtcea of Judge of the City Court and
Commissioner of Roada and Revenuea for the County, believing It to be
practically the unanlmoua eentlment of the people that the time it now
fully ripe for thla eeparatlon; and that there ehould be a Board of Com
mleelonere to manage County affaira, elected by the people, one member
of It to be exclusively from thoee parte of the County outalde of Auguata,
and Summerville, which la no more than what la fully due to the out of
town part of the County; the othere to be from the County at large.
Second: We are making no laaue on the aalary of anyone, for we
believe In full and adequate compeneation for all public officiala.
GENERALLY.
Third: We believe In promoting the moat cordial relationa between
Labor and Capital, and the enactment of lawa for the betterment of the
condition and health, general welfare and education of the laboring
claaaea.

encouragement and promotion of manufacturea and industries and com
mercial growth of every kind, old and new; that all claaaea may have em

crockery was doing at the court.
It proved to he an exhibit In evl

on trial charged with doing a busi

Officer Bartley stated thaf' he had
seen the defendant with the blue
plate partly tinder his coat and that
he ha.i susplcloned that something
was wrong and had Investigated. It
was learned that the defendant has
been engaged In the work of buying
ornamental plates and then by some
process of his putting photographs on
them. The offleer said that Johnson
had hts place on Pepper Row and be
side* the plate work did a business
selling statuary.
The defendant said that he had not
yet collected a cent on the goods, hut

Somewhere among the archives of
the Confederate government may tie
found a document dated September 2,
18i;2. wherein Joseph Wilson was or
dered to he shot, and on the hack of
which is the Indorsement: "Approv
ed—Jefferson Davis, President."
You see, mv companion was then tu
Virginia, and It was war time of a
certainty. We rebels were hard
pushed on all sides, having little to
eat and less to wear. Some of ns were
philosophers enough to endure what
we eouldn't cure, hut the young men.
especially the chaps who had been
ronscrlpted. were terribly uneasy.
They were ready to give it up for a
lost cause, and start for home. Well,
f.hls feeling, coupled with starving
rations, ragged uniforms and dally
fighting, sent a good many of our hoys
over to the Union lines as deserters,
and this brings about my story.
One of the conscripts of my com
pany was a boy of 17. named Joe Wil
son. All of us fellows of 30 or about
felt like a father to him. as, aside
from his youth, he was poor and pale. |
with not much of fight in him. The
IdPti of little Joey Williams helping to
breast bark a Yankee line of battle
would have set us all aroar. He
should have been home with his ms.
and none of us felt anything but pity
for him.
One night, after the desertions had
gone on and become so numerous that
me big officers nad to take notice of
suspects, a trap was set, and lo! our
poor little Joe fell into It. Yes, sjr—
t.abbed "in the act of deserting to the
enemy," and maybe you know what
that signifies, especially when that
enemy isn't cannot shot away. It
was a surprise to us that the lad had
plucked up courage enough to make a
break, but I reckon he was desperate
and -hoped in some manner to get to
his home.
It was determined to make an ex
ample of little Joey, and I guess it
wasn't over ten days before he was
convicted, the sentence approved at
Richmond, and an order read that he
was to be shot at a certain hour. I
suppose it was all quite proper and
according to army regulations, but it
must have gone hard on the men on
the court-martial to oonvict hint. Had
he been guilty of murder I could not
have aided to bring in a verdict
against hint.
Nobody had seemed to care whether
I he had relatives or not, and so our
surprise was great to learn on the
day before he was to be shot that a
sister hail arrived in camp to plead
for her little Joe's life. It was too
late. She had been denied by the
piesldent, and, of course, nobody In
the field had any authority to stop
the execution. She was in camp all
dn > long, and most of us got to see
her. If 1 should tell you she was the
brightest, ehlppest, smartest girl of
1!* 1 ever saw, 1 would he telling you
the truth. She was exactly like Joe
in looks, except a >ew points hand
somer. and she had his size and walk
and ways. When 1 saw that girl—l
! believe her name was Nell —breaking
down under the news and realizing
her helplessness. I'd have been willin'
to let them shoot me In Je's stead.
Deed 1 would, though I say It so long
after I just wanted to lay my hand
on her head and say:
