A POLITICAL DEAL
BY WHICH RUTHERFORD B.
HAYES
SECURED HIS PRESIDENTIAL SEAT
On Condition that He Re
move the Troops from Car
olina—.Ex-Gov. Cham
berlain Makes a Con
tribution to History.
Chablsstoh, S C , July 10.—At the
recent congress of charities in Chicago,
Frederick H. Wines delivered a memo
rial address in honor cf ez-President
Hayes, in which he sought to defend
Hayes from the charge that be was
made President in pursuance of a bar
gain to remove troops from Louisiana
and 8outh Carolina. Wines denied that
there was any bargain; that Hayes had
virtually promised in his letter of ac
ceptance that he would not exercise
military f-roe to sustain rtpublicat.
rule in the south.
The News A Courier publishes today
a letter from ex-Oovernor Chamberlain
denying the truth of Wines’statement,
and asserting that there was a bargain
of which Hayes was cognizant. He
concludes his paper as follows:
The whole case is in substance this:
"Mr. Hayes’ interests as claimant to
the presidency were the greatest pos
sible. They were inextricably bound
up with the interests of bis party, of
his party friends, and especially of bis
leading supporters. Offices, emolu
ments, honors galore were in sight.
The party was, for the first time since
I860, on the brink of defeat. On the
other hand, the interests of the South
were all at stake. The result of their
tremendous struggle was suspended in
the balance. The shrewd, long-headed
men of the South, seeing the uncertain
ty of the issue, and the anxiety of Hayes
and his party, and realizing their own
stake in the event, fixed the price of
their support at the removal of the
troops. Hayes pointed to his letter of
acceptance, no doubt, but the shrewd,
long-headed men of the South were
not satisfied with this alone. Hayes’
friends then assembled,met the shrewd,
long-headed men of the South, nego
tiated, winked, nodded, and finally
gave the express promises which the
South demanded. Hayes knew it all.
He did not contradict bis friends. He
accepted his seal secured to him by the
support of the South. He removed the
troops. Here was a bargain in all its
elements. 1 do not call it yet a cor
rupt bargain. I think the South, at
least, p d fair game of politics.
I do not t called upon to character
ise Hayes part further than to say
that ha was a party to the bargain or
agreement by which he won his seat as
president.
“Mr. Wines challenges the world.
‘If,’ he says, 'any man has direct evi
dence to the contrary, I challenge him
to produce it.’ Well, I have the evi
dence of no less than five of those who
took part in the meeting commonly
called ‘the Wormley conference,’ win
have told me, in detail, the terms of the
agreement, or understanding, reached
between Hayes’ friends, one of both,
and the shrewd, long-headed men of
the South for the removal of the troops.
I have seen and read two written memo
randa proces verbeaux of this agreement
or understanding, and I know that those
memoranda and other memoranda to
the same effect, made by participants
in the oonferance, are now in existence,
which will some day set at rest all
doubts of the fact. Hayes was either by
himself, or by his friends, or by both, a
party, in every sense of the word, to an
agreement whereby the support of his
claims to the Presidency was to be re
warded or paid for by the removal of
the troops, as it was in fact rewarded
or paid for. This I now write down and
publish in the interest of truth, and
without any wish or effort to cast
odium, dispraise or blame on any who
were concerned in the events of the dis
puted eleotion of 1876. Prominent
men, both living and dead, are apt to
suffer from injudicious friends and
eulogists. Mr. Wines is alone responsi
ble for my saying this word on a chap
ter which was so long ago closed except
as an instructive and dramatic passage
of oar political history.”

THE WESLEYAN CONNECTION-
Rev. 3. J. Cowan Organizes a New
Church.
Sunday afternoon was the time ap
pointed by Rev. S. J. Cowan, the evan
gelist, for the organization of the Wes
leyan Methodist church in 'this city.
We learn that several persons had made
application for membership. Mr.
Cowan read selections from the Discip
line of the Wesleyan eburob and com
mented upon the passages read, and
compared the Discipline of the Wes
leyan ohnroh and that of the M. E.
Church South. At night there was a
baptismal service at the tent by Rev.
Mr Abbott. We learn that about 16
persons united with Mr. Cowan’s
church.
The doctrines of the Wesleyan church
are about the same as the doctrines of
the M. E. Church South, the great
difference between the two organiza
tions being in the churoh government.
The Wesleyans do away with the Epis-
cop&cy and the Presiding Eldership,
and substitute a stationing committee
instead of having the appointments
made by the Bishops.
We have not been advised as to what
the Wesleyans intend to do in regard to
a church building.

His Hand Badly Hurt.—Last Satur-
aay as Mr. N. L. Sharpe, living near
Nicholson, in Jackson oonnty, was
driving a cow home, the animal became
unmanageable, whioh caused Mr.
Sharpe’s hand to be badly hurt. He
had a rope around the head of the ani
mal, the other end of whioh was wrap
ped around bis right hand. As the
oow ran, Mr. Sharpe could not disen
gage his hand from the rope, and thus
being violently palled along one of his
Angers was broken in three places.
A Mad-Dog Scare.—Some little ex
citement was created on South Lump
kin street yesterday by the announce
ment that a mad-dog was running at
large in that locality. It was reported
that the animal had already bitten two

Yard branch, and was seen in Mrs.
Compton’s woods. Officers McKie and
Suddeth, as well as some of the citizens
went in search of the animal, bat could
find no trace of him. It will be well
for all to keep a look ont, for if the
animal was rabid and other dogs were
bitten, there may be danger from them.

COFFEE
As a Remecy For That Terrible Dis
ease, Typhoid Fever.
A great many people object to the use
of coffee entirely and say that it is es
pecially injurious to dyspeptios. It is
well that occasionally a good word may
be put in in its behalf. A few days since
Banner reporter was in com
pany where the subject of
typhoid fever was the topic. Dr. J. B
Hunnicutt was in the company, and re
marked that in Russia when this dis
ease prevailed in an epidemic form, that
coffee given at intervals of two hours,
was the means of caring the fever.
Three days time was about all that
was necessary in order to effect a cure.
Dr. Hunnioutt further remarked that
the same remedy had been tried in this
country with equally efficacious results
If coffee is such a useful thing in the
treatment of this disease, it will be
more popular than ever. As it is, it is
not worth while to say much to the in
veterate dyspeptic coffee drinker, for he
will drink-it, notwithstanding the re
peated warnings in regard to the injury
it works on dyspeptics.

Chicago, July 10.—“That man ought
to he hanged.' He knows he is lying
when he makes the statement he does
and covertly insinuates that honorable
men have been guilty of dishonest and
scoundrelly acts.”
These words came with warmth from
Senator John Sherman at the union
depot as he was about to take a train
for his home at Mansfield. Ohio, and
were drawn out by a charge brought
against him and others by James H.
Platt, president of the Denver Paper
Mills company, of Denver, in a newspa
per communication.
The charge i« in connection with the
passage by congrasa of the law of 1873
demonetizing silver and known as the
demonetization aok. Mr. Platt In effect
charged that Sohator Sherman, while
acting as a member of the conference
committee on the bill did, in conjunc
tion with other members of the com
mittee, surreptitiously put a clausa in
one section of Hie bill repealing free
coinage, and struggled it through both
houses, and thft not a member of the
senate or house,or eyen President Grant
when he signed the bill, had the faint
est suspicion that such a clause was
contained in the bill. Mr. Platt further
intimated that advantage was taken of
this secret clause by members cf the
conference committee for speculative
purposes.
Mr. Sherman, commenting farther
on the Platt charges, said: “He is
simply revamping old charges that were
exploded long ago. They even failed
to serve the purpose they were intended
to, and were pretty generally laughed
at by men of both parties. Why, so
eminent a democrat as Abram S.
Hewitt, of New York, when a member
of the house, Investigated the charges
when they were first given currency
and made a strong report to the^honse
to the effect that there was not'd word
of trntb in the charges. That report
of Mr. Hewitt’s I made nse of in one
of my speeohes when called on once be
fore to deny these ridiculous oharges.”
What Platt Saya.
Denver, July 10.—Colonel James H.
Platt, president of the Denver Paper
Mills company, who John Sherman says
ought to be hanged because he charged
in a published letter that Senator Sher
man surreptitiously inserted in the law
of 1873 the clause demonetizing silver
and smuggled it throngh congress, said,
when shown Sherman's remarks:
“All that is said about the secret in
sertion of the demonetization clause is
true. I never said that members of the
conference oommittee took advantage
of the opportunity afforded them to
speculate. I said that they had such
an opportunity, bnt I did not charge
that they took advantage of it. The
rest of the statement is absolutely true
and easily susceptible of proof.’’

AN ENDORSEMENT*
Mr. B. R. PickroU Writes a Card En
dorsing Rev. S- R. England.
Editor BannebIn your paper of
July 8 there appeared an article which
contained the statement cf facts, ss
they occurred, between Revs. S R
England and H. S. Abbott under B-sv.
S. J. Cowan’s tent on Friday morniDg,
July 7.
I, as s personal witness of the matter
in question, heartily endorse the state
ment, as given by Mr. England, as be
ing fairly and strictly stated and em
phatically true
Rev. H.S. Abbott comes forth w'th
an article in the issue of the 9.h inat
in whioh he claims, that the statement
referred to above, is “abioluteH,
positively, and I believe intentionally
false.” To this article I wish to say,
that I consider it so absurd, and so far
from the matter in question, that I
think it hardly worth answering. But
I want to give the reader of the Bannzb
this pointer to this article. Which he
denounces the statement as given in
the Saturday’s Banneb, as being “ab
solutely false,” and while he on the
other hand admits, tta he did call Mr.
Ragland’s watch charm the “mark of
the beast.” Why did he not give us
his answer, to Mr. Engtaid’s direct
question, whioh was propounded to
him three times in suooession.
We ask again if the statement of Mr
England was “absolutely false” as he
says it «is, w iy in he nuns of I i :b
Heaven does he not give us a quotation
of his direct answer to a direct question
of so vital importance- We leave th»
public to draw its own oonclosion, de
siring right and justice to all concerned
I am yours.

number united with the Lodge on that

ton, R S; J T Johnson, Marshal.
One of the best of the recently organ
