Ex SrEAKER Carlisle in the forum
L for May shows very conclusively that
the Republican party has not kept its
promises inviolate.
The White Oak people are pushing

will follow close in behind Wh'te O.ik.
Every farmer might a canning

to do so on a small scale.
Mr. Cleveland 5s certainly a wonderful

they lire*-, ho.v and what they eat,
what the* do at home, what hey <io
away from home, and every th^s? connected
with the Ex-President : nd his
.
wife is :i matter of interest to the
whole United. States. But unfortunately
they are uiade to do and say
many things, they don't do or say.
Mr. E. M. Drayton* i6 reported in
the Charleston World as saying that
the Republican State Convention will
not be called until alter the meeting
of i he Executive Committee. Hedges
not know vet what nominations will
be made. "The Republicans were
keeping their weather optic* on the
present dissatisfaction in the Democratic
ranks, and it' that amounted ti?
(nothing in the war of a s;?!.r, he
thought that the only nominations u?
be made would be for Congressmen in
the First, Third and Seventh district.-.
It is certainly eucoufacing lo see
from reports pnOiislx <: t if me farmers

Too Early.
??
It is to be regret led t hat !he political
agitation has started >o soon, and
thrown int?? the bsclc ground other
matters of more consequence to the
prosperity of the people. At this season
of the year the people, generally,
1 r. . J
an.i iiic iaimcrs, jjuiiicui- ??>, ?;??sraged
in matters coming nearer to the
lire?ide at home than politics, and
should be allowed to quietly pursue
this course. In 1870 Hampton was
nominated in May, and the warmest
and in-?.-t. exciting' pv>litical contests the
V State has ever had, was brought upon
it. The narrow escape of defeat
proved that a long, early and vigorous
campaign was necessary to accomplish
an election <>* the D-.-mof??
. era tic nominee. The indications are
that the present campaign will be a,
very exciting one, bui there is not, iu
the present ?tate of facts, the least
necessity for the same tactics. We fail
to see the wisdom of forcing a hot
campaign before cotton is even chopped
out and in many places not even
planted. That there is both wisdom
and necessity of having a free and
onen dircussion, no one *;an deny.
? Certainly we will not, but on the contrary
we advocate it. Our criticism is
the precipitation of the discussion at
this time. The farmers should have
been allowed to plant and lay by their
crop, and then say whom they wanted
for their officers.
Tli?* Rainbow of Promise
from the store-house of nature came
by intuition a priceless boon to the
hnman race, through which physical
suflerers in untold thousands are made
to rejoice in the restoration of heaith,
and all the blessings, joys and pleasures
thereunto pertaining.

SPEAKING BEGINS.
Mr. 11. A. Meares, at 11 o'clock,
arose and said, in substance: I have
the pleasure of introducing y< n a
gentleman distinguished, tirst bi-eause
he ha.* been chosen by the recent
Farmers' Convention to expound its
plat form, and second as one suggested
i<> the Democracy of the State a- the
fitte>t man for Governor. [Vociferous
applause. Cries of Tillman! Tillman!]
1 now introduce to you
OAl'T. K. II. TILLMAN. OF EDGEFIELD.
Mr. Tillman spoke abont two hours
or a little more, and wc regret very
inuch that we cannot give a verbatim
report of his speech. We were unable
to secure the >-erv:ee> of a stenographer.
The foll.nvi g is, in the mail),
his address:
Mr. Chairman ai.tl Fellow-Citizens
of Fairfield inunty; IJefoe I begin
to "ay what I imv i.? %:ty, I request
that those men !? h;nd ihe -tand comc
m ironi s? inm run i<?tiK me m
Uie eve. (Cheer? ) I t'.ir h-r request
thnt voh give me > nr ti:i livided attention,
and if any ???> ' interest
I a^k him to step a*id?- when* ho won't
disturb those who waul t.? listen. It
affords me uleasnre fo mi* t-Howcitizen!*
and have them I >..k nn* in the
eye and see whether I am i.n- nun
thk newspal'eks
hare painted. From what you
have read in the papers you
would expect to see a man with hoof?,
horns and brimstone pourin? from
his nostrils. Cut vou see only
U plain iuru:er wnu ivnr i cm s
ago had never made a speech.. I want
to th^nk the newspapers of the State
for so liberally advertising me, and
they should nnke up a purse for havj
iny gjvcti theni so much to write
about. We are here as
CHILDREN OF ONE FAMILY
and I hope that nothing will be said
to create any ill feeling. This is a
fight of brother against brother. It is
a family contest and when it is a!)
over, I hope that you will come together
as one man and maintain the
ascendency of the Democracy. He
felt not tnc sngruesi anger ;o warns
the press. for maltreatment and persecution.
By abuse and persecution
from the nature <.f our people man/
conservative uien had been brought to
his support. And in some places a
most effective way has been taken to
call newspapers to taw for this intolerant
abuse of an honest white man, by
refusing to subscribe to such papers.
I don't want to be misunderstood:
believe in the freedom of the press.
They have the right to express their
t ominous in the editorial columns, but
should give both sides equal showing
in impressing their epinions. His
objection applied to those papers which
refused to publish articles on both
sides. A l'ree press is the palladium
of our liberties. They will all come
around right after a while. We need
more papers; we read too little. We
need education. This is one of the
troubles in the Democratic party today.
This action of the newspapers
to garble things has forced the campaign
iuio which wc are now going.
While they have thundered to the right
of me, to the left of me, under me and
ni-ninu! me. it has been all smoke and
no powder. A gentleman is here (referring
to Colonel Youmans) with a
carpet sack fall of them, and I hope
you will give him a respectful hearing.
(The crowd shouted: We will listen
to him, but they did hear you. Subsequently
proceedings will show they
didn't keep their word inviolate.)
Captain Tillman: I had a good deal of
cheering the last time 1 was down iu
Barnwell.
Taking up his address after this
interruption he said: T\*hat is the
charge thfty bring agaiu?t B. I{. Tillman?
lloiied down it is nothing more
than that I have dared to allow my
name to be used before the people as
a candidate for Governor. My
speeches have been suppressed. The
Jforh! tried to <rive it. but the stenographer
got his manuscript mixed.
J am the exponent of a principle and
the advocate of n policy, which T
V
\
P"
believe will give n.s th* best government.
WHAT IS TILLMAX1SM?
It is self-government and eeonomi- i
cal government. Xow why did the i
convention assemble in Columbia?;
It had been charged that lie as mem- j
ber of the executive committee'
of the Fanners* Association had the;
call issued for the purpose of getting
himself nominated for Governor. It
was done to prevent the politicians :
from forestalling the farmers by an
exercise of superior political tactics, j
I went around with Governor liich- j
ardson to the seven meetings held in j
1888. In four counties out of the!
"" - ' "-J J ? I
seven they nan "roresiaiieu us, anu uic
delegates had their credentials in their
pockets. So the old plow fanner had
to ?0 home and swallow Richardson
although he wasn't the choice of the
people. "What did the State Convention
do? They made two important
changes in the party constitution.
They abrogated the State canvass.
They prefer working in the dark.
They propose to take a breeches hold
on ns. We arc just
A HTJL J.fc 1w sji.vui i
for them, and we have now got the
breeches hold. The other side is in
the bush looking for a candidate., but
haven't yet found one with courage
screwed up to the sticking point.
Turning to Colonel Youinans, Captain
Tillman said: Are you a candidate
for Governor:
Colonel Yonmans: No, sir,
TIIE KINGSTERS.
Resuming, Captain Tillman said:
We were at home seeing afier our
negroes, while a few?shall I call them
ringsters? [A voice: Yes!] Well,
the ringsters would meet and get control
of the conventions.
NOMINATIONS NECESSAliT.
Some arrangement* were necessary
to get the farmers waked up. A platform
and nothing more would not
suffice. It would be broken down
with office-peekers. The whole ring
would get on it.
NOT N* A HKD OF ROSKS.
I am nc. on a bed of ro?e$. My
plantation will suffer by what I am
doing now It will be left to the old
woman and children. The other side
will move heaven aud earth to defeat
me. Then the vituperation. Some
on the other side said that thev
wouldn't vote fur him if he was nominated
bv the Democrats. Yet no one
. V * ,
nao nearu 11 man uu un? oju? ?&j mai
he would not vote for another man if
Tillman was not nominated. We can
have but
OXE l'AKTl.
Division of the white* would mean a
return of jrood stealing. Bid9 would
be made by each side for the ne^ro
votes.
K AI x! rain!
It n?w be^an to rain s.o hard that
the audience retired to Mr. H. W.
Desportes" ginhoufce, where Captain
Tillman got on top of a xill, and asked
if a.H th(> reporter* were fixed. saving
be wanted the press to see the differ^
ence between bad treatment and decency.
Are the gentlemen of the
press ready? said he. Silence gave
consent. So Captain Tillman proceeded
with his discourse.
DISCISSION NECESSARY.
The condition of things in the State
heretofore have made discus-ion practicably
impossible. This is onejof the
evils which grows ?ut of the existence
of one parly, hence anything like friction
in the party has always been
cried down. It was thought better to
sutler something than to run the risk
of Radical rule. This has given ri*c
to t'.e election of slick-tongued iellows,
who run vith the hare and bark
with the hound. Men are elected to
offices on personal popularity. Such
men, it you have any in your County,
should be spewed out of your month.
What a flutter the March Convention
has caused, so different from ten years
ago when
JOHNSON flAGOOD AND M. \V. GABY
were out for Governor. The crowd
which has ruled the State since '76
condemn those who redeemed it This
crowd chose delegates to St. Lmis to
nominate a candidate for President
They controlled the County conventions,
and when they got to Columbia
in June, seeing that they could nominate
Ilagood, they did it. What a
howl, though, has been raised because
we farmers had a convention in March!
DON'T WANT TILLMAN CLUBS.
t i. . m;n ..V.-. j
i aon t wain any unman uuujuiganized
as has been done in your
County, but lei's tight it out inside the
Democracy. Eternal vigilance is the
price of our liberty.
ALLIANCE NOT IN POLITICS.
The Alliance i- not political, and I
don't want it to make any endorsements
of a man for Governor. I mean
no reflections on Mr. Mearet=.
THE REAPPORTIONMENT
question was next discussed and table*
in reference to this matter were read
by the speaker. [Mr. Tillman said if
the County paper would publish them
they could be better understood. They
will be published hereafter.]
THE COUNTER CONFERENCE
was touched upon. In reading its
a.ldres*, the speaker quoted the lan
guage of Job: "Ob, would tbat mine
enemies would write a book." He
styled Messrs. .Tones, Woodward and
Iredell as three blind mice, and aristocrats.
COLONEL YOLJIANS,
of Barnwell, was introduced by Captain
Tillman as a distinguished gentleman,
who uutortuuately had nerer
seeu anything good in Tillman or Tillmanism.
It had now stopped raining and all
went back 1'roai the ginhouse to the
woods, where Mr. Youmane, "with
his carpet sack of newspapers" and a
very interesting little scrap book with
all of Tillman's articles to the newspapers
began hi* speech. He soon
proved that Capt. Tillman bad written
one book too many. It is well that
Mr. Youtnans is a ctto), deliberate
man; fur confusion was at ita highest
pitch a!l through his speech, in spite
of the tact that the meeting wa? called
for a fair and open discussion of the
issues. He was not to be discomforted
by the effort to >now him tinder; not
even the rain was to stop him, for he
expressed a willingness to speak in the
torrents that fell from the heavens at
times.
Mr. Youmans occupied about four
hours in the delivery of his address,
and no one but an expert stenographer
could d-> him full justice, so the
crudest svnoposis is given here.
He quoted David A. "Wells and
Sumner on the tarili' and argued at
great length that therein lies the
trouble with the fanners, lie was
not here as the '-suggcstfd*' candidate
of any man or set of men, and explained
that his interest and the farmers were
the same. He very learnedly produced
authority to show that the dissatisfaction
among the farmers was
common throughout the whole country.
lie dwelt at length on the manipulation
of the currency.
That crowd, however, didn't giro a
snap for currency or anything else
but Tillman and even he couldn't
quiet theia.
They were not disposed to hear Mr.
Youmans. Capt./Tillman asked them
to ?ive Mr. Youmans a respectful hearing-.
The rest is taken from the 2?evs$
and Courier, the onlv paper whi^h had
1 '
a
a stenographer present during the
entire speech, and we observe it does
not publish all that Mr Youmans said, i
but it has most of what took place in j'
the ware house, where the crowd ',
went by unanimous consent on account
of the rain. Most of the proceedings t
were in the shape of repartees, and j
a long hand writer was at sea on this
sort of thing. The .Veirs and Courier j
concludes the performance which Mr. !
Meares characterized at one time as j
indecent as follows:
THE PKOrKCflOX 1'BESS.
On reassembling Col. Youmans re-1
sumtd the >nbject of the tariff news- j
papers, and began '.villi the Augunta'
Chronicle, which he said supports Till
man. "That paper." he sai.L, "is a
protection paper- Maying the farmers ,
sell in ooeii markets of the world, but |
making them buy at 40 per cent tariff, i
which goes into ihe treasury or :nanu-1
factures. Will Mr. I'illman deny lhal j
John C. Calhoun said that the tariff
was a tax on the people?"
Mr. Tiilinan: "No, 1 will not deny it."
Mr. Youmans: l,Now, as to* the
Charleston World: where is Mr.'
Cohen, who, I underhand, is to deny
that it is a protection paper, and that it j
is run iu the interest of capitalists and
manufacturer.''? Let ih s-ee where Ihei
World stands. In the first nbee it |
?P:Ii tha I
SUpfXJi IS ft. 11 I IU4tl | AUU 13 luv
only one of tlit live dailies that has endorsed
iiiin. Isn't ih.if so, Mr.
Tillman
Tillman: "I don't know. I harw
nothing to do with the World, and I
don't take all or'the live paper#."
Col. Youman*: "Well, 1 will tell
you why it supports you. I have been
informed (and now ie the time to 'deny
it) that that paper it owned by
capitalists rich men financially, and
by some of the aristocracy uf the country.
Capt. Shell swears at the aristocracy
and Capt. Tillman swears at
the taxing of the poople, and yet in
the paper that supports hiiii ihoic U to |
be found the aristocrat and the manufacturer.
Do you want any prool? I
don't think it can be contradicted that
the majority of the stock of that paper
is held b/ men who own nearly a half
million dollars in stock iii the iron
mills of Alabama. Where is Mr.
Cohen? Can he deny thin?"
THE SECESSION.
There being 110 reply from Capt.
Tillman, or anybody else, the meeting
proceeded until the rupture, which occurred
in this way:
Capt. Tillman to Col. Youm&ns:
"Do you stand here to-day, in the
face of the Constitution of this State,
wMMi vaii TOprp own rn t<? and
JVM. fl v. V W .. ? "J ? .
justify the act of robbing Reaufort
'County of Representatives to give to
Hampton County?"
Youmane: "No; 1 dou't admit it,
I do not admit that I or any of the
party robbed Beaufort County of its
Delegate?."
Tillman: "Can you stand here today
to justify that fact, that Richland,
with its 9,000 white people, his two
mure delegates than Spartanburg, with
nearly twice as many Democratic
votes? I want to a?k you if, when a
man yoes and swears to a constitution*
if he doe# not obey it isn't he a liar?"
Yfiiuians: "You mean to say then
that the Leginlature perjured iuelf in
ulblllg ii1c usui lu (uc v^una*luniwu j
and because the census for a reapportionment
was not taken?"
Tillm&u: "Ye*. The Ie?islatore
swore to obev the Constitution of 1868,
which is to-day in forcc; and It provided
for the taking of the census.
Let me read it. [The section was
read.] "What I mean to say i* that the
legislators swore to obey it, and they
didn't do it." [Loud applause, confusion
and hurrahs for Tillman; counter
hurrahs for Youtliatu 1
"Now let me read from Article 9.'|
[The veiling and shouting for Tillman
not ceasing, he turned round on the
crowd fiercely and shouted: "Hush
up, yon are worse than a set of jackasses."]
Capt. Tillman then went ou
to read the section requiring a reapportionment
on the basis of population,
stating that the Legislature had not
done Its duty.
Youraans: "Th# Legislature passed
an Act requiring ?uch an enumeration
to be made and I defy Capt. Tillman
to say that such provision was not
made."
Tillman: "[ know the census wa*
not taken. What was the use of passing
an Act without jnvinsr the tnonev
for the work."
Younuns: uOb? that ii not the
question. Yen charge the legislator*
with being purjurers. You don't deny
that they passed such an Act?"
Tillmau: "Produce the Act"
Youmans: "Oh, no; you made the
indictment; }Ou must sustain it or
admit that the accusation ie false." At
thispoiufcin the proceedings the meeting
was wild with excitement. It was
beyond the control of any human
agency. Tillman got up pale and excited.
lie evidently desired to talk,
but there was no chance. Eventually
Col. Woodward got up on the bend of
tho iqUI* onH thnnfprl ? "Thrte cheers
for srraighont Democracy!" This
started pandemonium again, and besides
it was raining torrents. When
partial silence was restored Cvd. Youmans
got hack on the stand and f>aid:
' 'Gentlemen, Capt. Tillman ha9 indicted
the State as a perjurer and the
legislators as perjurers. This is a big
indictment, and I ask him to prove it."
[Great confusion.]
Tillman: "Gentlemen of Fairfield,
I came here proposing a fair and
honorable discussion. 1 ask you to
say if I hav? done anything to-day to
suffer such unfairness. I will not
listen to another word from you (Col.
Youmans) if you don't prove your
charge of lying against me."
Youmans: "Well, I hare forgotten .

renegade and a traitor. It was you
who charged me first with being a
perjurer and you can't prove the indictment"
Tillman then turned his back on the
speaker and left the depot, beingfollowed
eut by about the 200 friends.
Outside on "the platform he called
Ills friends together and sent for the
Reporter of the Sunday Neics. Capt.
Tillman was about to speak when Mr.
Meares, ths chairmau of the Ridgeway
Alliance, got up on the box and
said that the meeting wa* called in the
interest of Tillman and that "it was
bound to him."
Capt. Tillman then addressed the
briefly. He wanted to know
if in all fairness they had any excuse
for attempting to treat him in that
way. He called Col. Youman's speech
a rigmarole. He said that Col. Youmans
had put himself beyond the palt
of a gentleman and that he couldn't
continue the discussion. After some
further remarks Capt. Tillmaa dismissed
the meeting. It was he, by
the vray, who introduced Col. Youmans
to" the meeting in a rerv cordial
manner.

Washington, D. C.. -April 2.).?
There are two distinct classes of re- ;
ceptioiis hel i by i !?e 1'fident at the
White flouio. ?) tliese, however,
include those vi-i - midetoihe
Chief Executive, ??wcu break his

The daily papers here jrive a list of i

the anxiety of these visitor.-* as they ;
enter and the look of exultation or !
disappointment they wear on their
exit, depending on how their partictt- j
lar tale of woe was received. Seeing j
this class ofcallets if, however, not j
counted a reception.
In the olden time?, in order to satisfy
the curiosity of their subjects,
crowned heads were often subjected to
considerable annoyance aud inconvenience.
At one time in France the
lfoyal Family dined where any one
who chose could come and gaze on
them perform tne necessary but unjnajestic
feat of supplying the inner
man.
Although the President of the United
Sutei may dine in private, still
public sentiment requires him to show
himself to hi' loyal subjects at certain
intervals. In other word*, he receives
or hnnrQ
UJ AilU *11 CUIIIVI Q Ul liVM* V j
during ca. h Wetk.
This reception does not lend to iuipro*
one with greatness and power of
t!.- liighvM. office in the gilt of the
greatest people on the ylobr.
The East R?oni ot the White House
is alwavs open to sight-seer?, and here
the crowd collects on public reception
days and await the appointed time to
gaze on the Presideut and shake his
hand. The hour having arriyed, a
door leading to the other rooms is
opened aud presently the victim is
brought in. He is accompanied by
some member of his official family,
and takes his stand near the door.
The callers form line and as they pass
shake hands with the President without
anv introduction. A "good morn
ing" or "I am glad to see yon" is the
most that escapes the President's lips
as he presses the hand of a sovereign
oter. A child occasionally causes a
diversion. President Harrison sometimes
kisses these, probably being
drawn to them by his thought* of
Baby McKee whom he has just left at
luncheon.
Sometime t-ince* young lady from
Canada was visiting here. One day
she and her escort were out ti^ht6eeing
and among other places visited
the VVkite Hou?e. In the East Room
were found several persons appareutly
waiting for something to oc.:ur. The
number soon increased to about seventy-five
or one huadred. These
teemed to be ktraugers in the city and
to hail from all parts of the Union.
On interrogation an usher said it was
nonofol roi-enlinn ilav. Ilpr Maififctv'rt I
Ovl4v* *' vvv^^w.. ?; - -v / '
subject was very much disconcerted
by this announcement, and more so
by the invitatiou to remain and "be
presented." She had visions of court
dresses, flashing jewels, long trains,
and of kneeling to kiss the royal hand.
She probably also thought of the skill
necessary to retire without turning the
back on the Queen and at the same
time to uvoid tripping: over the train
of her dress. With these in her tninu
wue may imagine Ucr dismay on looking
at the street casta me and thick
boots uot improved as to polish by the
mist and raiu and tnml of the street.
Her escort uorsuaded her to Iremaiu
and she "passed by" with the throng",
ihtrebv losing: much of her respect for
the greatness of the highest office in
our land.
This cla.s* of reception mast he to
the President what the whispering;
slave was to the Koman Emperor. The
receptions of the other class are fear
in number for each rear. These are
given in the evening from 9 to 11, and
are tendered, one each, to the followin*
persons. 1. To the Diplomatic
Corps. 2. To the Senators and Representatives
auu Judge* of the Supreme
Court. 3. To the officers ot the Army,
Nary ana Marine Corp*. 4. To the
distinguished citizens. Cards of invitation
are necessary for oue to attend
these. Usually three of the ilas*e*
named above are ifvited to meet the
other one, whose special reception is
to take place. Ladies attend in full
oveniugdress and all officers wear the
uniform or other insignia of office.
For display the reception to the
Diplomats is" usually ahead of the
others. In addition to these at noon
u New Year's day the President receives
all officials and dignitaries.
Only men "pass by" on this occasion,
but there are always ladies on hand as
spectators.
A short description of one of these
evening receptions may be of interest
and will suffice for all. All the lower
floor of the White House is thrown
open, including an exquisite conservatory.
Floral decoratious abound, but
the East Room is specially given over
to the florists' treasures. Cut flowers,
smiUx and palms abound. At the last
reception to the officer! of the army,
navy and marine corp ou Tuesday,
April 22, a new departure was made
iii decoration. Exquisite cut flower*
and lovely roses were joined i?to
incbers and stars with green back
ground of palms. The Marine Band,
oue of the finest in the United States,
discourse such music that one fee's inclined
to sit still and listen. The
guests begiu to assemble at 8 or 8.15,
and so*n the rooms are alive with the
elegautly dressed throng. It is not
uncommon to see a fla*h of li?ht aud
on looking for its origin find a diamond
necklace or tiara that makes one
almost believe iu Rider Haggard's
"King Solomon's Mines."
At iiini* nVlnr.k thn Presidential!
part) comes down stairs. It consists
ot the President and the ladies of the
White House, mombers of the Cabinet
and their ladies. This party Voon
passes to the Blue Parlor and take
position in all readiness for the "work"
of the evening. The reception properly
begins then. An usher, usually
the" marshal ?f the District, introduce?
the guests to the President and another
repeats the name for the receiving
ladie?. These latter stand in order of
the rank of their husbands on the
President's right, while iu rear and
filling the Blue Parlor entirely are the
specially invited guests. After passing
the receiving party the guests enter
the East lloom and from there scatter
all over the lower floor. All formality
is now over and the rest of the evening
if given over to tlfe pleasure of

cabs. .
On account of so much distress
among the members, of the Cabinet,
two of the Presidential receptions y
were postponed till the present month. s
Usually all four take place before Lent. \

-VEWS AT THE STATE HOUSE. j
CoLi'MisiA, April 28.? At the meeting '
of the Euphradian Society on last
Saturday night week Frank C. Withers |
was elected president of that society.:
Mr. Withers is now a junior and is the
first president chosen from his class.
This is considered one of the highest
honors conferred in the University
and can be taken as an indication of
llr. Withers stand amoii^ his fellow-;
students. Among tlie other students :
from Fairfield who are taking a good
stand at the University are II. L. j
Elliott who is one of the brightest men j
in the class and is very popular, Otis j
Withers, the best base ball pitcher in j
the University and bids fair to be one j
or the leaders ot ms class, ocoti Douglass
who stands well in his class and
who is reputed to use the best English
of any student of the University,
Means Beaty a hard student and with
bright prospects ahead, Hamilton Ilanilian,
who is accused of being lazy but
who is one of the most popular boys
of the Institution, and Frank Duke,
who was highly distinguished at the
February examinations. There are
others who have not made themselves
prominent yet but by their gentlemanly
manner and studiousness promise to
maintain the reputation Fairfield has
established at the University.
On last Monday night a dance was
given at the asylum in which the in
mates joined. Dances are given there
very frequently. A few of the towns
people always go and assist in making
a few hours of pleasure for the poor
unfortunates, who seem to enjoy themselves
very much on these occasions.
A base ball league has been formed
among the tliree Columbia clubs, the
Midgets, the University Club, and the
Mechanics. A series of games will be
played for the pennant and the Erenin
Record has offered a medal for the
best all round player. The first game
of the series was played on April -2otli
and was between the University team
and the Midgets. It resulted in a victory
of 1) to f> in favor of the Midgets.
The meeting of the anti-Tillman
farmers on last Wednesday was a
matter of much interest to Columbians.
The gentlemen who composed the
i convention received every courtesy afc
the hands of our citizens and conducted
their convention in a most
proner maimer. Prominent amoHg
the delegates was Maj. T. \V. Woodward,
of Faiilield, who lias many
friends and admirers here. The address
issued by the convention is considered
as the proper thing and its
mildness and justice is commended.
The sentiment in Columbia is strongly
in favor of that expressed by this
convention. A number of our citizens
expect to attend the meeting at llidgeway
on next Friday.
The meeting of the board of directors
of the State Alliance Exchange
passed off quietly. The proceedings
of the meeting were not made public
but it is stated that the exchange is in
flourishing condition and that its first
years work was a success. Action
has been taken for the making of
arrangements ior purciiasiug uagjjxug
and ties for the next season.
The Southern Press Association
which meets in Charleston. April 30th
has been invited to visit Columbia and
spend a day or two here. The city
wa6 canvassed bv a joint committee
of the Columbia Press Club and the
Board of Trade and $700 was raised
by contributions from the citizens to
be used in entertaining the visitors.
It is not known whether or not the;
association can come to Columbia, but'
it is hoped that it will.
Though a number of persons have
been bound over under Hoed to await
trial at the next term of court for
fishing within eighty feet of the-dam
across Broad River there arc some (
who persist in lulling there. The t
nnnmiicciAiior /?-f IS dnillW
all in llie power to prevent it and is >
having all those who fish there arrested
and brought before a Trial Justice.
The Board of Trade is making con- J
tinuous efforts to build up a commerce
in the Congaree and to have the freight
rates between here and Charleston "
made J#ss. Mr. Geo. W. "Williams,
Jr. and Capt. A. L. Corde, of the J
Charleston steamship line appeared
before the board on Saturday and the
matter was fully discussed. Mr.
Williams and Capt* Corde came up to
examine into the matter and to con
sider the advisability of putting several
more steamships 011 the river to f
hanl freight. The Board of Trade *
will investigate the practicability of ^
opening up a ship channel from
Granby to the foot of Gervais street.
Resolutions looking to that effect were
adopted on Saturday. (
