I" JX^tUL The Carolina Spartan. (11 ^ S. PETTY, Editor and Proprietor J WEDNESDAY, MAY 16, 1894-3 1 The Southern Baptist Convention Mill adjourn this week in time for delegates to reach home before Sunday. It is expected that the (ieneral Con- , fereuce will adjourn about Monday next Tbey will elect no new bishops. . Dr. C. J. Darby, a nathe of Orange* ' burg and a surgeon in the Confederate ariuy, died at his home, Stamford, Connecticut, last Saturday night. He was a brother of Dr. John Darby. Mayor Sloan of Columbia has ordered the police to arrest all persons who sel] intoxicating drinks. He will do his best to enforce prohibition, although ha will have a stumpy road to travel. The Alabama contest for a candidate for Governor is very clese. The returns up to Saturday night indicated 171 for Gates; 186 for Johnson; doubtful, 149. Both sides claim the majority l?r. S B. Jones has resigned the Pres idency of the Columbia Female College. He was unable to bear the sedentary mode cf life required of him. Dr. R.N. Wells is mentioned es his probable successor. W. D. Evans, president of the Stare Alliance, has withdrawn from the raee oamtiinr Dr. Podo withdrew IV* Wf vaaav ? ? rome time ago. la it to be J agar i and 1 El.'erl e ? Or will Col. McLaurin enter 1 the field ? J With the two decisions of the Su- , preme Court before the people, there is ( still some doubt as to whether the law of 1893 is declared unconstitutional or not. That being the ease, it is expected ; that Tillman will order the dispensaries reopened as socn as the Supreme Court adjourns. It need not surprise cne to see them all open next saleday. i It has come to pass here in Sooth Carolina that one may be a true blue Reformer, a farmer's movement man* , without being a T>llmanlte. We have conversed with several men of that stamp lately. That is they believe in , reforms and retrenchment in State and County Governments, but they do not believe in Tillmanism as interpreted and put in practice by himself. The General Assembly of the Southern Presbyterian church will meet in , Ifashville Thursday of this week. Dr. T. H. Law and F. M. Farr will repre- j sent Enoree Presbytery. The Sadie ( Means case from Columbia will come ( up on appeal and the licensure of candi- j dates will also be settled in a more satisfactory way than at the present time, i They will be session about teo days. , "V i The Alabama primaries are in progress and it looks as if Gates would re- 1 ceive the Democratic nomination for Governor over Johnson, of Binning- 1 ham. The convention meets the SI I inst. Col.

The Southern Baptist Convention met in Dallas last Friday in the Sam Jones Tabernacle. It was estimated that 6,000 to 7,000 persons were present. President Jonathan Harralson called the convention to order. They had the usual devotional exercises after which Rev. C. L. Seacbol made an ad drees of welcome. Reports from committees were received and worked marked out. Dr. Herfoot, of Kentucky, preached the introductory sermon. Saturday they began to work in earnest. Coxey's army, numbering about 500, marched out of Washington last Saturday. The new recruits come from the colored population around Washington. One man was drowned, ten sent to the work house as vagrants and six placed in hospitals. They moved across the District line into Maryland, but the citizens are appeal**^ to the Governor not to permit them to establish their camp in the State. They selected a place near the old dueling ground at Bladensburg for their camp. The Diocesan Convention of South Carolina had a harmonious session The trouble which arose severed years ago over the race question was amicably adjusted aud al! the churches are now on the same footing. They decided to change the name of their annual meeting from convention to council. They will meet next year at Camden. Bishop Howe's salary, $4,000, and assistant Bish op Capers', salary $3,000, each requested that the council reduce their salaries one thousand dollars This was refused. They adjourned last Friday. The editors of the State are dropping into poetry gracefully. It is a good sign. Even Tillman at Rock Hill quoted some of his Fifth Reader poetry, which . he learned at school. When be begins MB on poetry he lets up on his friends the "doge, moccasins aad buzzards" as be calls all who do not agree with him. It is said that General Hemphill even eon "Rn. X 0 ID pldlfB CL 6UFI Vl cpiVf va ?WM?VM ??. dolf Roderick of Long Cane" will be the hero. Of coarse his friends know who is hidden behind the fictitious name- We expect Brer Holmes to follow soon on the "Mod Tarkle" or some other subject he understands. Harmony will prevail when the muses have a corner in ever sanctum. ?A special from Washington to the Charlotte Observer of Tuesday says: ' Senator Butler presided a while today in the Senate. He will to-morrow introduce a pension bill for the widow of .InoC. Secrest, of Lancaster. Dr. P. L, Murphy, superintendent of the State Hospital at Morganton, and -1 * ?Vio Hnnfh n?rnhnA. UrB DflUtwn, vi vuo vM -ww and Powell, of the Georgia assylums, were here to-day, en route to the annual meeting of the International Association at Philadelphia to morrow. Other arrival*: Junius |M. Horner, Oxford; J. A. Brown, Chadbourn; Mr. Brown. Asheville. A prominent South Carolinian says: "Either Tillman is lying to Ellerbe or changing from John Gary Evans to Ellerbe. I have seen a letter f-om the Governor which indicates one thing or the other. I believe he feels now that the lattt r is the stronger, but if Tillman is deceiving Ellerbe, the latter's friends will beat any man Tillman puts up for Governor in kAugust, and then beat Tilloian for the Senate.1' The Political Outlook. ? I There ib nothing new in State politics , ;his week. The Senator's election will lepeud on the menbers elected to the b, Legislature. That being the case, it ^ will be necessary for each candidate to b< ieclare whether he will support Tillman or Butler. That will give us two a, jets of candidates. The voter who has b no choice between Tillman and Butler a will select his men from both sets and w B-otfi for his personal friends, or for ei those te considered the 1 est men. Bat tl is a geer&l thing the Reform voters will tl align themselves according to their tl ihoice for Senator. The Conservatives p are not taking any interest in the mat- n ter for they do not know whether they u will be allowed to yote or not. It will h be best for them to sit on the fence and a watch the Reformers. Thty will have ti Infinitely more fun while thus engaged g< and they will not be chagrined with w disappointment after the election is ? over. el Besides Tillman and Butler there are is other issues. The dispensary is the tl first one. Tillman will oontend for tl that as it is. fie will fight for it to the t< last, fiis friends and supporters in 6| every county will stand up to him. a The Butler candidates will oppose the q dispensary as it has been managed and & advocate the Gothenberg plan which a will take the profit and spy System out ? >f the business. Or they will advocate u Prohibition, or a general license law & that will restrict saloon keepers mncb si more than heretofore. h Tillman will endeavor to bring the a Convention into the canvass, bnt as h the question will not come to a vote n until November, it may not receive k much attention. C Populism may enter into the canvass for Governor Tillman is an open and o avowed Third Party man and he hopes n to carry the State with him in the next a Presidential campaign. ? There may be other issnee bnt we do fi not know what they are. Neither do n we know the atandard bearers. It is t! said thatches of oar members of the g Legislators will give their support to ? Tillman without any reservation. This is only a rumor and we cannot vouch b for it. If that is so and they all ask for y re election they will need only one more t candidate. The Butler candidates p have not been discovered yet. Bat the o knowing ones say they will be forth a coming in time for the campaign. All c you have to do is to wait and watch. a 1( Shall we have Coeducation in Colleges and Universities? The University of Virginia has been B thrown open to woman. For the last ' two years the fight has been going on t in that State. This is the first South- & era University that has opened the a doors to woman. By degrees all the c higher colleges will receive youog ' women. The tendency is in that diree J tion. Our female oolleges are not en- ^ dowed. They have to be supported by 1 tuition fees. It is always important 1 that these fees are large Hence much ' attention is paid to music, art and ail those branches that oome in the list of I accomplishments. Three-fourths cf the girls demand such training. Their parintaprefer their daughters to beoome 5 "aecpmplished" rather than distil*- r guttud. Ii-W fsmtfe sshMl* nre.afet 3 tfofu UK* Sigper wotfc^O* yUli uuri^e' g to blame. Now and then there an f srirls whe do not wish to learn muqiV ^ and painting and all those little attractive arte, bat they wieh to enter on a vigorons course of etady which will lay the foundation for a liberal education. For this reason colleges of high grade and Universities will be thrown open to young women. This will not interfere with the Female Colleges. For the balance of the century there will be very few girls in this State that will take a four years course in a college. Want of preparation will be in the way. The curriculum In our schools is not such as to prepare girls for admission into Colleges or Universities, so our parents need not be alarmed because co-education is promised in the Colleges. The Presidents of oyr Female Colleges need not fear tbat their patronage will be diminished, because the number applying for admission will be very ?inill but oo-education is coming and we might as well get ready for it. Collegiate training is more needed in South Carolina than it ever has been. The tendency in matters eduoational is to the superficial, or the business training. All that is very well. Tbat si better than no education at all, but if we are to have men and women in the t first half of the next Century who poe- i sees a liberal education they will not < oome from the training and technical < schools. The foundation must be laid j in that thorough training of the mind ] scoured through the study of language. mathematics and the sciences, i The one who is ignorant of Greek and j Roman literature, however mnoh he i may know about other things, cannot < lay claim to a liberal education. If a few girls in the next decade, should en- < ter Colleges there need be no cause for 1 alarm. Neither sex will be unsexed | thereby, nor will the ordinary educa- < tlonal methods te disturbed. " l The Winthrop pchool ' / Lant Saturday the corner stone of this institution was laid in the presence of a large crowd estimated at 60,000 to 15,000. Extra trains from Clamson College and Columbia carried in several 1 hundred people. The regular trains also carried many. But the large crowd went in from the country within twenty 1 miles of Rock Bill S. P. Dendy, Grand Master of the State, conducted the eeremonies in laying the oorner stone. The 1 name of the institution is "Winthrop Normal and Industrial College." Mr. Mercer, of Greenville, opened the exercises with a 20-mInute prayer which, according to the reporter, was well worded and expressed iu eloquent lancuAire. Governor Tillman then made ! O - the opening address. Professor St. James Cummings, of Charleston, read the dedicatory ode. Hon. Ira B. Jones then delivered the regular address, dedicating the school to the education of ' woman's head, hand and heart. All political factions united in this great work and in the addresses there was a notable lack of partisan abase and vi- ' taperation so common in all the public addresses recently made. Even Cleve land was allowed to rest undisturbed for one day, so far as public utterance was concerned. 1 The General Conference of the < Methodists at Memphis is working 1 away in a very orderly manner. Bishop I Keener was called away Saturday ty 1 | the death of his daughter. Charleston ; has asked for the next session of the i ' Conference. Some Ancestral Chat. Iq tlie last Issue of your paper, I )oke of the probabi'ity iu running ack one's genealogy of Qudiug a relOte ancestor, who had a very humble eginniog. I will now say that we need not be shamed of them, because they were j lacksmithu, weavers, or what not. way back yonder, when the country as betug settled, our ancestors in genral were poor people, who fled from le i executions of the old world to lis new one, where by force of talent, ley and their descendants became rominent. No, sir, our ancestors were ot born with silver spoons in their louths. They had to work, and work ard, to keep the wolf from the door, nd in so doing, they laid the foundaon of future greatness for their de;endants It wes no shuine then to ork at whatever one's calling was lut after awhile better times?days of avery, and it becirne a stigma in ouf ind to labor, and many young men or lis and the former generation feel lemselves very much lowered, to be >ld that their ancestor was a blacknlth, or labored with his Lauds at I very needful calling. Why, I know a tan who was raised ii% Spartanburg, ounty, but went to an adjoining town,! nd rose to prominence as a merchant ho was actu&llv ashamed of his lother aDd who, when she was quite a omely conttry woman, was in his tore making some purchase, said to is sweet heart, who was struck by her ppearance and interrogated bim about er: uOh, she is an old country wo ran." I have heard a similar tale of a insman cf mine now liviDg in North Carolina. I was tulking the ether day with an Id gentleman aboat this and kindred latter*, who said tnat 01* rnatenw ncesior, who v&i sister to a maternal ncestor of mine, I will not state how ir back, le*t soma of their descendant* lay feel aggrieved, was the mill boy of he family, a* my ancestress was too cod a hand in the field and at house rork to be sent to the mill. A gentleman some years ago told me 16 heard a a conversation between two oung men of your city, relating to heir famous pedigrees, when he eap*ed the olimax, by stating to them, one f whom was his nephew and the other kinsman, that his old grandfather ame from Ireland, a weaver by trade, ,nd that he made his living by making eather breeches. This was told to [oite a crowd, and was rather mortify Qg to the young men., The nephew rent home and told bis annt what his mcle bad said publicly, and believed if 16- had been in his place he would not lave told each a bit of family history. k> here it is some of as are sshamed, nd some proud of the fac that oar an* escore had to labor. Some of us wo Id tave people believe that our ancestors rere gentlemen of leisure, and that it s degrading to their memorits to say hey labored in the field, or forge, or dth the nesdle. The poet said: 'Honor and shame from no condition rise, Let well your part, there all the honor lies.M Wen, l nave ancetiry ou me ur?iv,gu pa mast give me elbow room to have oy say. I have searched my olrn ard i good otber^ bpt m contmlBfiy^'cinllrom^^i^itlre aet that wfc have precious few public loeaments and records on .file from vhlch we can gain any information# Some time since I wrote to Dr. B. F. iilgore making certain inquiries when le replied by sending me a paper he lad copied before the war, when he was a member of thg Legislature, which was on file at thAt time in the Secre41 ry of State's office. As I wanted a lertified copy, I wrote the Secretary ol Jtate, and got the informa'ion that here was no sach paper on file. What las become of all oar records any how ] [ thonght that alloar State recordt were saved by beiDg sent to the op sonntry when Sherman commenced :he march throagh South C&rolioa.

The oldest records pertaining to thii leetion are to be found in Raleigh, X C., as all this section was once Nortl Carolina. There are also some papen on file in Abbeville. It was at this lasi place that the Hon, J. fi Cleveland found the will of old Alex. Vernon, when this was North Carolina all legal papers were filed at Bileigh, and whec it became Ninety Six district they got to Abbeville somehow or other. Cai you explain how these papers got t< Abbeville? Is my supposition correct Dr were our State archives m>ved there, when Sbermvi was through tlx State'/ I was too busy in Virginia about thut time to know much aboul what was going on about here, and took an Involuntary trip to Fort John ion, Lake Erie, daring this time.
