Monday’s Meeting.
In another column will l>e found n
report of Monday's mooting nt the
Court Houacsand wo have endeavored
to report the satno as faithful as
pooaible under the circumstances.
We deprecate very much that cir
ewnetancM should have arisen so as to
■mm the acene witnessed in the ranks
of the Democracy of (.kdumbia county.
Could the former leaders of the party,
who are now sleeping in their graves
have witnessed the discord manifest
ed on that occasion, they would have
been ready to declare that tho glory
of fanner days had departed.
In •xprsemng an opinion iu these
•damns we do not. expect the eudorse-
MMt of «U our KM<l ix Iu fact, about
this, Ac care but little. With us it is
not faction or mon, but principle,
and when wo cease to regard the latter
above everything else, we will but de
serve to be condgnoJ to some oilier
sphere with failure written upon our
bnnner. Rising nlx»vc the tie of
personal preference, candor compels |
uh to say that to ignore a committee
of ;•< ntlemcn appointed by the citizens
of this county to look after the iutor-[
eats of the Democratic party mon,
too of the strictest integrity as the
E-.i'iitivi- ( immitteo of Columbia
county were ignored by a part of
the meeting on Monday hist, reflects <
anything but credit upon the county.
If it is not the duty of the Ex-,
e< .Hive Committee of this county to
look aft< r and <1« ide upon issues like
the one in the contest ou .Monday, iu
the name of reason what are its du
ti' s? If it is not within the province
of tho Committee to decide upon such
questions, then the creating of that
Committee and the pledge to stand
by tho time honored principles of
Democracy is simply a farce.
It whs the right of every man to de
sire the candidate of his choice a fair
showing in the contest, and we do not
pretend to question that right, but
fnd to see the right of men to reflect
upon the Committee by declaring
they would withdraw before the
Committee had heard any tes
timony or readied a decision, just
simply because that. Committee were
in the majority so far as their prefer
ences to the candidates during the
campaign ami at the time of the elec
tion. d hey had no right to be ques
tioned or suspicioned untilthey proved
themselves recreant to the trust com
mitted to them.
Wo do not profess to be able to
foretell future evi uts, but it is evident
to one not a Solomon that such a
course will soon disrupt party organi
zation in our county. Therefore it
behooves every citizen to cuter a most
earnest protest against being led by
such a spirit.
As to tiie candidates, both are gen
tlemen in every sense of the word and
would have received nothing but jus
tice at thu hands of the Committee.
