1 big for mortal man to accomplish in
ihe existing state of industrial knowledge,
and the only criticism that can

faith of his former achievement. No

when it is mistaken, or when it makes !
a statement true in one sense, yetj
misleading, it will be glad to have irs j
attention called to the fact. Is: it* last
i?!=ur it !*ays that while the Legislature
made a liberal appropriation to the
South Carolina College it "voted not
a cent to Clenason " The point intended
to be conveyed is evidently that
the Legislature made an unfair dis- '
crimination against the Cleinson College
and showed favoritism ?<> tlie
South Carolina College
It is true that the Legislature made i;
an appropriation far the South Caro- j
lina Coilege: buf we take it that no'
' .... i...... i1
one wiio lias any noeraiuy aouiu mm
will oppose thi?. All wings of the!
Democratic party agreed that ihis j
institution should receire :i liberai j
support as a "Literary and Classical'
College.'' The appropriation made i
was just enough to carry 0:1 the Co!-j
lege, and make needed repairs on the j
$300,000 worth of buildings that hare |
run down in the course of years, and
to pay the insurance thereon for three j
years With our recent experience in j
the loss of Erskine and Converse, we (
take that no ene will object to a good j
insurance,?!' to paying: twice the;'
premium of one \ ear, to secure Tn-~p
surance for three. This is merely a j:
wise business method. The item for i(
insurance will disappear for the two i5

to see why the number of students , '

who contemplate doing so in future !
were led away also. The literary j ^

" i 3
management ?f the institution been '
more satisfactory, <* - all parties eon- j

J
work of the classes. The department''
and zeal of the students are most j'
praiseworthy. We are sure that ?hei
College will move on to still greater (
usefulness., aud that the Legislature j1
never did a wiser thing, than when it i J
gave enough money to run it on a I
satisfacteiw basis. j,
It must also be remembered that the \
strongest plea for the University as it j,
was constituted was that it could L
supply greater facilities for education s
with less money than a plan of se- i

system one professor could teach!
mathematics to all the students, while i
' I
no a-there must be two, one in Co- r
lumbia, and one at Fort Hill. The 1.
' |
same is true as regards the depart-:
ment of Physics, English History and j <
Zoology and Botany, and ethers that |
migfet be named. "When the Legislature
decided to cut off one half the ,
Colleges from the University in Co- i
lumbia, n? one could expcct to have '
the rest maintained at one half the ;
whole cost. While it may be better j
for other reaseus to separate literary
and industrial instruction, it certainly 1
is not cheaper.
While the remarks of the Observer
are in a sense strictly true regarding i
the fact that the Legislature at its last
sessioa did not "gire a cent to Clemson'\
they are entirely misleading. (
At it? first session that body gave 1
Clemson all it asked and made a standing
appropriation for it of a very J
liberal amount. The whole tax of 25 (
cents a ton f?r fertilizers goes to
Clemson. This has been a large sum
in the past and will continue to be so !
in spite ef temporary causes. It will
be remembered that the opposition
t? Governor Tillman's faction pic- 1
posed to give a handsome yearly appropriation,
but the farmer element
refused to acquiesce and demanded the
fertilizer tax instead. The Lcgisia- ;
tnre at its last session knew this, and
feeling that the taxpayers were much
embarrassed, refused to add to this
liberal provision the privilege tax.
Besides this, C'lcmson received over
$o,000 from the land scrip fund. It
also has $15,000 a year from the Hatch
fund, and Gov. Tillman is endeavor- i
ing to get one-half of the Cullem appropriation,
which we believe amounts
*" Aftf\ 11 ldinfAii it-ill f Vioivfrtvfi

receive this year from the State the
privilege tax, one-half the laud scrip,
. and at least $15,000 and possibly
$27,000 from the United States treasury.
Her income may reach this year
$35,000 from the State alone, besides
the proceeds of the sale of the Agricultural
building in Columbia. "While,
therefore, the Legislature did not give
a cent in special appropriation, the
; College will have from 8-40,000 to
60,000 unless we are much mistaken.
I This adding pretty well for Clemson,
especially when it was advocated on
the ground that it shouldn't cost the
taxpayers of ttio 5>tats a cent.
We have already said several times
that since the State lias seen tit to
establish this College it should be
liberally supported; but we submit
that the support givon by the State is
a liberal one.
"What the trustees of Clemson asked j
for, in addition to all this, was a |
special appropriation of $05,000 for
building purposes, so as to complete !
the buildings by this month. On j1
inquiry we learn that the reason the j
large sums already given avc;c not \
sufficient, arises from the fact that j
after all the estimates were in for a I
college of 300 students, the trustees <
enlarged the plan so as te provide fer j
600 students, and of course their money j
went only about half way. Then in j
order t? hasten the work, they asked :
for the $65,000 of which the Lcgisla- '
lature "didn't give a cent.*' "While
? .... i
giving the trustees credit tor the very
best intentions, we must think they
erred in endeavoring to buil.i so large
a plant at ?nee. We do not believe
that aav college in the State will have
any thing like GOO students near i
future,
lageous for any institution to begin \
rritli so manv. Far better open with 1
t
-mailer accommodations, and W the ,
building grow gradually \\ih !;! ,

As 1 said in the beginning, the issues ,
are graver than in :7G. Graver, f*r c
tlie reason that we do not now present i
an undivided front to a common ?

the times indicate that we arc drifting J
farther from the ancient landmarks of (
Democracy and arc becoming more
reckless of consequences. Graver, ?
becouse the results Democratic mis- 1
conduct from the nature of circum- t

problems for solution. In plain Ian- j

1 he Republicans had control of the
stale, prior to 1876, the colored man
vent into politics. He did so because
iii-re was money in it for him. But
.vith the passing of the State into the
lands of the Democrats this oppormiilv
for money-making vanished,
tod the colored men be^a'i to turn
heir attention to something else,

THE FIRST FLAG TO FLY- j
To the Democrats of South Carolina:
We ask you to consider without
prejudice what we say to you, and to
let your judgment be y?V'*rin*d by an
intelligent regard tor your ow n interests
ahd directed bv your Jove and jexpect
lor the ?>tate anj her people.
Wc are not trying to stir your
passion by general accusations which
wti c^ntioi prove, or t? excite vsi*
hopes by extrara?a':t promise* impassible
to fulfill. We do not wish to
undo any good that has been acooui
plished or te reverse any policy which
the majority of our fellow-Democrats
favor.
We ask you to join us in an honest, :
united, determined effort to remove
the dangers confronting1 our people,
the evils under which they suffer.
We must restore peace atid good
feeling among ourselves, thai we may
sraad and work together and ^ive that j
mutual help and cordial co-operation
necessary for (he well-being of any
community. We can do nothing
while we are divided into hostile
factions and neighbors are separated
by political distrust and discord.
We submit that the course of the
present Siaie administration tends
inevitably to continued irritation, ?
division and danger. In the campaign ~

promises of reforms which have not |
their distrust of these promises were f
then violently denounced. Even such
, of these a3, despite the bitterness with ~
which they were assailed, accep:ed I
and supported the will of the majority |
of their fellow-Democrats, have been
treated as enemies, and the present
iudications are that this proscription
is te be continued and extended. I
Recent publ'c declarations by th^se |
high in authority assure us that those I
?utliu and S
? LIU >VCiC HUUi bUV Uici, V... V* q
followers of the head of our State g
administration, but who went with g
him only so fur as their con>ciences B
would allow, and then resisted or W
opposed his purposes, are likewise i*> H
be put under ban. Representatives "*
of the people have been slandered,
reproached and derided as' driltwood," |
because they could not in all things
think and act with the Governor, and I
dared to vote according to their judgments.
VVe are openly informed !:"it

I on the bench d:d not. accord with the I
" wishes and opinions of the executive. I
i The Legislature elects the judiciary.
, Control of the one means th-j control '

, the powers of making, expounding
i and executing the laws (powers ivc:i
by the constitution for the safety of
I the f-eople to the keeping of three
distitic. branches) into tin# hands of .
i one man. J
The present management of our <
1 ?
party, apparently in lull sympathy *
with the purposes and demands of the ^
; Governor, and with his help, has in- 3
i corporatr-d into the rules of the party "
. new devices for perpetuating the I
; power now held and making' it mo^e 1
difficult for the majority of tue Demo- %
, cratic voter* to withsrand the power
[ of the machine controlled by a mi
: noritv. ^
i The tendency of all these acts and
! metheds is toward further and deepei t
i divisions and continued strife among' t
' u?. The si^ns of the timet* warn us
; that unless there is a change we may *
have t? choose between slavish sub- misbiod
to a dangerous and degrading
de?poti?m or a bitter, desperate and r
, ruinous struggle among ourselves. ?
To avoid these dangers, to restore
, peace and harmony to our party and 1
i people, w? call on all Democrats who ~
wish to tecure :a conservative, safe,
efficient State govornment, representing
11 hnmp. and
H ^UIIU i/viiivviMw MV ... ? _
commanding the good-will and confide
n ce of the worid at large, to give us
the active Lelp vi their influence and
votes.
We pledge ourselves and those who
think and act with us to abide faithfully
the decision of the State Democratic
convention, to make this fight
for good government, the freedom of
legislation, the independence or the
judiciary and the liberty of the people
within the party lines; but to make it
earnestly, courageously and persistently
in every township of every
c?*ntv of tke State. We call on all
Democrats who are willing to act
with us on the pledges and fur the
purposes above announced, to assemble
iii mass meeting at their respective
court houses on such days as tbev may
see fit, and elcct delegates to a con,
veution to be held ai Columbia the
! fourth Thursday iu March, 1892;
which convention shall be authorized
; te name a State ticket for the IA-mo'
cratic voters and the State Democratic
conucntion called to nominate a
i State ticket for the Democratic party.
We ask that each county elect to the
convention hereby called as matiy
: delegates as it is entitled by !Ii3 rules
; of ihe party to send to Stute conren,
