Editor: ? doubt it seems strange to many ?f your readers that tto Iiutc two distinct factions iu tlic Democraticparty, but however strange ; it may seem nevertheless it is true. I which, in my humble opinion, is a very serious thing. Situated as we are, having the negro j element either to be bid for bv the' factioMS or run in opposition to us, j which means ruin either way. The BejjTO is virtually out of politics, and I say keep hiui out, and the only tray to do it is for the white people to be united, and I h?pe before .inr further vrronirs mar be perpe- j (rated by either faction to widen the j breach that -rrc will be united a.s we were i? *7Gr when we give that grand rally, not a> a faction, but as a whole, which resulted in victory for the Democratic party. I thiuk our situation at present more serious than prior to TO. For then it was white man against negro; but now it is white man against white man. Yes. n-rtvci tii-j'i tir. is father against son ami ?on against father; houses I arc divided: and house divided against it--If cannot stand.

Better for Soutii Carolina that that man had never been hern, or that a millstone were hanged about his neck and he thrown into the middle of the sea. I am anxious t? s?e peace and harmony restored in our ranks. So I have a proposition to suggest, which will not be asking any condescension from either faction." but to meet on equal ground*, and it is simply this: Let the two County Chairmen - call the two Executive Committees .together and order a prk.ary election for the purpose of electing a Couiuy Chairman and an Executive Committee, allowing- each club to elect its own committeeman, not for Gov. Tillman er Col. Haskell or any particular man, or set of men, but for the good and welfare of the Democratic party. Lei; the'cry for conservative men to the front go up above this dear old lawl of ours; for if they were ever needed it is now. For now is the acceptcd time. Xo tirac to say who was right, or who was wrong, but let lis try and improve in the future by the errors of the past, aad let brotherly love exist in all of our j lawful ar?ealions, and we will be al better, happier, and msrc prosperous people. i>. ii.
