"Politics make strange bed-fellows."
The truth of that old saw was long
ago well established, but it is being
made m?re apparent in South Carolina
now than ever -before. A few months
ago Dr. Sampson Pope w?uld not
touch the State, would not coudescend
to read if, and now it is the representative
of what he urges as good politics.
Not l?ng since the State was

Tlje Register contains an article
under the above heading signed by
J. L. 21. Irby as State Chairman, in
which Irby claims all responsibility
for not printing any "no" tickets to
vote in the coming election against the
constitationii convention. lie vindi
cates his course by saying that "the
State Convention of the Democratic
party unanimously adopted a platform
urging (italics our?) the Democrats of
the State to vote for the calling
of a constitutional convention
and thereby committed the
party to it." Well we are not surprised,
such a thing wa? never done
before, but this i? one of the many
tots of the ;'^ecDrd breaker."
We have bad elections on questions
of various kind# before and tickets
were always printe?i for both sides of
the issue. We will not complain, we
realize that we are under gag law,
military control of courts, and live
under laws m*de by a cringing ?nd
subservant legislature who do *he
despot's bidding, f^r fear of being
called "damned drift wood."
Doe* urging the Democrats bind
them? Does urging1 them give the
right to spend the money of the Demo?
- cratic parlyjfor them, only for the consideration
that they rote a- Irby and his
committee dictate? And what is the resiilt?
Only this, the "no tickets" wiU
have to be paid for out of private
funds; and it, this trick, will only ur>jt
more to vote against the constitutional
coaventiou who were probably indifferent
or perhaps somewhat inclined
to it. The human mind revolt-- at
lorcc ana tms is Botnm<r more nor less
than an effort to force (by circumstances)
men to vote no. Well, we
will not be forced.

I MR. LYLES ANSWERS MAJ. WOODWARD.
A. Review From *90 to ?4.-hbo swrwu
this Fight?
Editor of The Xeucs and Herald: Permit
me space in your columns to answer
the article in yours of the 17th
inst, headed, "Who has bolted?" It
.s there charged that I led the Tillman
faction from the regular Democratic
Convention in 1890 and that the A.nti
delegation to the State Convention
was kicked out in a most partisan
manner.
Feeling ran high in the campaign of
'90- hnf. the essential truth of the Far
mer's Movement was irresistible and
the people wheeled into line with
wonderful unanimity.
Fairfield having a distinguished citizen
in the coatest for the Governorship,
was the scene of the hottest fighting,
and when it was evident that defeat
had come almost all along the line
elsewhere, heroic efforts were made to
save this county as a guard of honor
to her gallant son who had met with a
Waterloo. In this state of affairs, any
questions that, might involve the control
of the county convention were
sure to be decided ou partisan lines,
fr?r men were not in a frame of mind
to be able to vote on the merits, calmly
and without bias. Knowing this, the
county Executive Committee appointed
a sub-commit tee to preparo a list of
the delegates who were entitled to
seats in the temporary convention.
We mnderatood that in making up this
list they were "magnanimous enough
to leave tbe Tillmanites half of the
delegates, relying upon the casting
vote of a partisan chairman, who had
been luanipuluted to do their bidding.
We well kuevr that we had the great
majority of the clubs and of the voters,
as has since been demonstrated in
every contest contest in State or primary
elections. Satisfied that the
cards were stacked and our case prejudged
if we remained in a convention
from which a partisan committee bad
scheiningly excluded a large part of
our strength, we saw that it was a
time when technical law (if we admitted
that it was against us) was not
to be considered, but whereas free
men, we must assert our rights aud
rebel against being counted out I
deny however that there was law for
, the appointment of this sub-committee
to prepare, in advance of the meeting
of the convention, a roll to be used by
the convention.* I maintain that the
delegates on the floor of the convention
who coald present their credentials
from their clubs were entitled to
seats until the convention decided
otherwise. We demanded a committee
on credentials to report to the cdnvention
who were entitled to seats and
who were not. The chairman refused
to entertain a rote except on the basis
of delegates fixed by the sub-committee,
which was intended to make
every question depend upon his casting
vote* "What were we to do? with
a presiding officer who instead of
being the mouth-piece of the convention
with no purpose but to serve it,
was the raouih-piece of a coterie of
lawyers and politicians and seeking to
suppress the will of the convention,
we had no alternative but to submit
like cowards or to leave the hall. We
left the chairman presiding over the
tail nf a convention, emmv benches
and sad faces.
When this remnant assumed to send
delegates to Columbia, there was nothing
partisan in refusing them seats.
They admitted the Democracy of the
State convention by applying for seats;
;from the facts above stated there was
at least room for honest doubt of their
right to seats, and when the decision
went against them it was their duty to
submit, as we would have done if" the
decision had been for them.
It is therefore a poor excuse for the
Anti's to say " We bolted from bolters."
But, after all, it is not a question of
who bolted in '90, but who bolted in
'94? We may think as we please about
the merits of our difference in '90, but
they are not in issue now. In '92 we
all agreed to come together as .one
party and to let by goues be by gones.
If the Antis were honest then "in their
profession of a desire for "peace and
unitv." how can they now follow those
who seek to make a permanent division
iu the white ranks? Some of the details
of onr primary this year were
arranged by our AntirChairman elected
in '92. Succeeding him on the very
eve of a fair and opeu primary, I
could little expect the authority of the
party, then nowhere questioned, to be
so soon thrown aside by the bolt that
is now upon us. Sumter county had
much the experience of Fairfield in '90,
but her Antis faithful to their tacit
pledge, have continued to adhere to
the party, and as a result they have
won in the primary and the Reformers
submit, as always." If our Antis had
sufficient following, as they claim, to
be elected without the aid of the negro
vote, they could have been successful
in the primary with credit to themselves
and harmony in the party.
There is not one but "would prefer to
hp oWted that wftv.
Fellow citizens," it is passion with
mauy of you, but I am afraid it is
office and power with those few that
strive to keep this passion alive- I
refer you to the club that made the
first call for the Independent National
Democratic League organization.
Eight or teu met and elected six of
their number to the county nominating
conveuttyn, three of whoui were placed
on the ticket?quite a lar^e proportion
patriotic euough to sacrifice themselves
! In these days when you hear
so much about your duty to make a
"straight fight for principle with no
compromise of vour rights," you
6hould remember that so far as this
means a fight in the party primaries,
it is just what the Reformers have
brought about and advocate in order
fKof Am- nannlc niov tViint aiwl ArnrA>S

themselves on public questions The
result will be progress Yet the men
that now urge you to fall back on
your individual rights, tried in '90 to
suppress all agitation and discussion
by saying, "Hush, you will break up
the party and the negro \rill get control
" They thought that nothing
should be done in South Carolina without
consulting them and when they
saw that the Man of Destiny was about
to disturb their reign they tried to prejudice
the people by charging that if
defeated iu the primary he would go
ho (/pnprftl plprtiftn. 'Phpv Irnf^w that
if this was believed it would damn
any man in South Carolina, and they
may now fquirmhut their own words
return to condemn them. Who have
tried to be Mahpues? The farmers
-have never varied from their loyalty
to the white people of ihe State. * The
stock law caused great hardship in the
low country, but the sufferers did not
rebel against the party or the State.
The sate of liquor was as legitimats a
business in the country as in the
towns; but when it was restricted to
towns the farmers submitted t? this
clas3-legislation, they are always ready
to abide the will 'of the majority.
How differently did the city people
act when their monopoly of the liquor
business was taken from them! The
farmers' opposition in '88 to the
"Granny Governor," the patron Saint
of the Columbia Club, was strong and
just; but when the majority spoke we
supported its will, retaining our opinions
and our purpose to keep uj> "a
straight fight" within the party. It
we had been unsuccessful in *90, we
would still have been found loyally
supporting the decree of the party.
The article I wish to answer contains
a second cunning argument: the
appeal to the negro vote this year is
justified because "the Tillmanites
worked harder for the negro vote than
the Haskellites" in '90. Well, wc
ought to h*ve done so, if we didn't;
for from Hampton'till'90 it was the
policy of the Democracy to solicit the
aid of good negroes, while it is no
more patriotic now than in Radical
days for a defeated minority of whites
to desert their fellow-citizens and seek
to overcome them by the use of black
votes. This is high treason. Before
Hampton lost his grip on the State and
(poor old man!) became, as now, soreheaded
and vengeful, his judgment
was that in South Carolina "an Independent
is worse than a Radical." If
he has changed his mind vrc should
remember that he had better judgment
then than now. The facts have not
changed, unless the negro has come to
be as good as a white man.
Where is Butler? After eighteen
years of fat office in a city of corruption,
associating witli millionaires and
the keenest political tricksters in the
country, he left his Washington home
and returned to the home of his young i
manhood to teach us politics and make
"something drop." He thought he
had concocted the most damnable
schemes the wit of man could devise
and would continue to the end of his
days to draw his big salary, hobnob
with Dan Cameron and ride in palace
cars, while the people of South Carolina
endure wretched poverty for the
want of a statesman to guard their interests
in Washington. What has become
of his plans to choke off the will
of the white people and continue to
get "poorer by sacrificing his time to
the State" for another thirty thousand
dollars, in addition to the ninety thousand
he ' * gotten poor in drawing and
spending?
I cannot refraiu from again urging
the good people of our county lo lay
aside persoual dislikes, to forget dead
issues, to consider tbe misfortunes that
are upon the country and the greater
dangers that are in the future, and to
discard rejected leaders who play a
desperate game for power, with the
welfare of us all as the stake. I deplore
the unfortunate division among
our people and stand ready to-day, as
always in the pa^t, to do anything to
heal the breach, with honor to both
factions, blieving, however, that the
majority should rule and the minority
are in duty bound to yield. In '9^ I
repeatedly oflered if I was any obstruction
to the harmony of the party to
resign the chairmanship with the
understanding that the people and not
a committee were to select my successor.
This would have clearly proved
our relative strength, but the Antis
spAmftd not to want it Droved.
A word aboul the constitutioi al convention.
If factional lines are not
drawn in decing upon this couvcntion
they should not be drawn in electing
delegates to it. We want a constitution
made by the white people of
Sonth Carolina, whose interest is one.
Men of such character can be elected
that the people can safely trust to them
the framing of the fundamental law of
the State. I favor electing delegates

Tcdrious calculation?
Around the World 206 Times,
An eminent physician has made a curiou*
mathematical calculation in giving the
workings of the human heart in mileage.
He shows that in a lifetime of 84 years
the blood as it passrs through the heart i*
thrown a distance of 5,150,S80 miles, which,
in a continuous stream, would reach around
the world 206 times!
Keeping in view this constant strain on
the heart, and taking into consideration the '
abuse it receives from over-exertion, alcoholic
and other stimulants, is it any wonder j
that it finally becomes affected, refuses to i
perform its work, and causes death? The
fact caa be readily understood that one in !
four has a weak heart, al.-o the importance of j
treating that organ as soon as its affected con-1
dition is in the slightest degree manifested.
Reader, if you have any reason whatever
for believing your heart to be affected, you
should attend to it at once. Do not hesitate.
Man^persons who die suddenly of this
disorder have never suspected its presence.
Joaeph Boody, Pierpont. N. Y., writes: "Three
yean ago I began to have difficulty in breathing,
palpitation of the heart set io, and my limbs and
ankles were badly swollen. Physicians said I
could not liv* a week. I began using Dr. Miles'
New Heart Cure; the first bottJe greatly relieved
me, and, although 76 years of age, the several

me that I am a new man. I cheerfully recommend
this remedy."
"While suffering from a severe attack of heart
disease, and expecting to die, physicians having
affordeamt no relief, I was induced t< buy some
of Dp. Miles' New Heart Cure. Every dose lifted
me right op, and it seems as though it would
almost raise the dead. I would willingly fill the
New Heart Cure bottles with gold for the magnificent
remedy they contain, if I could not get them
on other terms."?S. A. Hull, Franklin, N. Y.
"For 20 years I was seriously troubled with
heart disease and nervous prostration, the latter
affecting the sciatic nerve of my left side.- During
that time I was treated by many prominent
physicians, and sent hundreds of dollars away
for medicines, all of which failed. Recently I
began using Dr. Miles' New Heart Cure, and am
now entirely free from my old complaints."?
