AGITATOR AGAIN.
When last replyirg to Agitator, wi
said that we had no hope of convincinj
him, and his article this mornirgshow
tha.it is well we entertained no sue'
hope.
Itthe first place, it gives as plcasur
to commend the admirable tcaiperc
his articles; and it also give* us pleas
ure to note that he is not entire!
ready to join the Republican pa.-t\
though he admits that his former art;
~1.V ^inrrrnifor! o^ DGW Dai'tV.
"We confess we are somewha! at
Johs to know exactly what Agitato
docs ^ant,- and liOt knowing his d?
sires, it is mere spsculation 10 discus
whether or not tbe State would gai
anything if his desires were grantee
"Wi-ii arc his desires? He evident!
dor-s :irt like the Democratic part
eithc -as it exists iu thi- State to-day
or a managed by Mr. Cleveland or a
le.^d by Mr. Bryan; he cannot stan
the Fcpu'isr, for according to him it i
the same in principle as the Demc
cratic; and he does not pretend "the
lie Republican party is blameless,
tV?- i-'-t ^nnrsins rnffonness as well 0
the ^ibcr parties.-" He simply want
a i:cw party, exactly for what, an
what arc to be its principles in Stat
and national affairs, we are left to sui
raise. lie is not particular as to th
name so there is the much neede
"division." "We have already give
the reasons why we could not advis
anv ".livisicir to form a Republica
party in thb State, and it is hardl
necessary *o repeat them here. W
do not believe in the theory of a big
protective tariff for the sake of pre
teclion; we do not believe in the Ii(
publican idea of paternalism, with a
its tendencies, and, therefore, we coul
not advise our people to joiu the Es
publican party merely that we migt
have "'a division" in this State. An
however much similarity Agitate
may see between the Democratic an
Populist parties, we could not advis
our people to join the latter. Bt
Agitator Uoes not want a division fc
the purpose of increasing the ranks c
the Populist, and he is not sure h
wants our people in the Republicai
lu fact, he is "not particular as to tfc
name so there is the much needed div
sion."
When we obtain "the much neeae
division," where are to go, and whs
we are to do, Agitator does not te
us. Still he thinks a "division- 3
' 'much needed," and he c:is not pa:
ticular as to the name so there is th
much needed division." As we sai
before in replying to Agitator in hi
former article it is very hard to deal i
abstractions, ank whether or not a ne^
party would be a good thing in tbi
State, depends upon a great many coe
tiugencies. One of those conliuger
cies is what the new party would do o
what it would try to do. Agitato
thinks that our answer was evasive
TVe are not surprised that he though
so, because we had proceeded upon th
rwocmrorvfi/\ti fViof- Vmc novfv TCAnl,
2/k lcuu. i uu<v uw ii it yu. i. ; tis/wi*
be a Republican party as he lainsei
confesses his former article suggests*
that party. Xow we understand tka
he is "not particular as to the came s
there is the much needed division.
And still \te have to conjecture wh;
the division is to be made, ar.d wha
"the division" is to accomplish or tr
to accomplish when it is made. There
fote. Asitu ors Question has to b
answered, hypothetlcally, in the ab
?:eree or further light from him as ti
3ns new party. We can conceive cf ai
;.;eal -taie of politics when two psrtie
TTv. ^'i.1 be a g:eat blessing to the ate
We can conceive of an ideal state o
no:i;ic5 when men would take utile
because it is their patriotic duty to c!<
so; we can conceive of an ideal stah
of : politics when there would ben<
poetical rings; we can conceive of ai
ideal stale of politics when the onl1
rivalry among political parties woulc
be to give us the best government
O" v iidrmmefAvo/} urifh rrino
sr.;l lair justice to all. But when sue!
an idenl state shall come, we rea!l\
believe that we shall be rapidly ap
proachirg the inillenium. But tha
day has not come. aod we have tc
deal with conditions, and not theories
Xcw Agitator wants us to discuss hi;
"division" c:: "its merits," and tel
him why it should not be made. Unti
he tells us what his new party or ne^
;'division" among the white peoph
proposes to do, both in the State anc
the nanonil government, it is utterly
impossible to say whether it is desira
bie or not. I; may be that what he
wat t> dune can bo best accinplishec"
in the Democratic party; and if ii
cannot he done in that way, possibly
v cannot b? dine at a!!. If we are tc
start an entirely new party in tnl;
State, merely to have a "division/
without being identified with any oj
the other great national parties, really
we arc at a iOSS u> snow wuul jnacuca!
good such a party could accom
piUh. Agitator is not ' "particular &
to the name so there is the much needec
[ divisioj." and, therefore, he is not!
i v,orv rjpsirnns that: the new .> v MlOuld '1
j identify itself with the Republican j
j party. It can:t join forces with the j
j Populist, bccause it is the same in j
j principle a the Democratic, .so Agita- j
i tor (ells us. When you divide, A?;ita- |
j tor, where are you going? Do von j
propose to float without any deiinite
destination? And what is yourdesli,
nation? Are you as to ttc destination
i as you are as to the name *{not p;r:
ticular so long as there is the much
needed division?"
As mentioned before, the liepubiican
' i party has had almost continuous sway j
-1 in cur national govern incut lor .-i ]
I whole generation. Men ililr:y '
i years old have never known l;:;i ??>:c;
j Democrat to occupy the President!;

! that it is not at all strange thai a pxrry j

y j very movement, set in motion by the
y j ideas fostered by Republicanism, there
'}; should have evolved the Populist
5 ! party. Our friend Agitator falis into
d | the error of supposing that because
s j ex.Democrats have gone into the Pop>-:
ulist party, therefore the Democratic
! party is responsible for its existence,
j Xot at all. Paternalism produced the
s j original Populistic doctrines, some ol
-s i wbicb we are giaa 10 say mat party
d has abandoned. Our friend is misc
taken in saying it was the Democrats
in Kansas who began the Populist
e party there. Let us pat an observant
d Kansas witness on the stand, a Iiepublican,
William Alleu White. Writing
e for the current Forum, which we have
n just read, and which confirms very
v forcibly what we said in replying to
6 Agitator the last time, Mr. White
b says: "Nowhere else is the American
> socialist so earnest, so oatspoken, and
5- so unhampered by scruples as in Kansas.
* * The casnal observer in the
d East thinks the Western Kansas man
5- is a Populist. The truth is that Westit
ern Kansas is more surely a Republid
can stronghold than any other portion.

v LuumeuauKs piuvju upuu IUU cuiViiuuo
S of the people unti- -:be drivel of the
i- Populists fell upon the ears of the
i- dazed and disheartened voters as the
r wisdom of seers."
^
j Agitator thinks that some <>;' our
(f statements were incorrcct. We had!
ii
e no idea thai any one could b- leunu i
who would dispute the historic:-] fact I
f that the Populist party originated in i
^ I cue jcsurtawusi, in lub vmv iu
l which Mr. White refers, where "under
0 the guise of Republicanism every facl,
? every ism" had /'been hawked about
v the State of Kansas." They simply
\ carried the doctrines of the Repubiiv.
can party to their full length, and gave
the name of Populism to them. But
e Agitator thinks that because Populism
| spread to the South, and some Demo- j
0 j crats embraced it, therefore the South- j
?! ern Democrat is responsible for it. j
LI k
; i As we said before it is not surprising!
, j that the Republican party having!

Oun friend J. C. F. is inislakcn in j
. j supposing that JL>r. aurney, or me
! South Carolina College, is the only
p j Chemistjn the State. All of the Colleges
have professors of Chemistry.
, A very eminent Chemist is Dr. Catheart,
a graduate of the South Carolina
College, and a son of Sheriff Caihcart,
of Hichlar.d. and a nephew of our es.
teemed fellow-citizen Mr. Samuel j
. Caihcart. Lie studied at the famous '
i; Heidelberg University of Germany,
,; and there obtained the degree of |
. j Ph. T). Our own townsma Mr. S. D.
! Dunn has a knowledge of Chemistry of
j :o mean order. Possibly, J. C. F.
j j iias been lead to suppose that Dr_
I Carrey is the only Chemist in the State i
: j because lie ha? been made State
(: Chemist, auJ the duly oi analyzing
j j liquors Scz ha? been devolved upon
. i bim. In this way, h2 has been kept
i ' prominently before the public. The
.! south Carolina College has one of the
t. Quest equipped chemical laboratories
* ia the South, and if J. C. F. should
. : happen to be in Columbia at any umo,

| Food, undigested, is poison. Digested,
it is life and strength. Millions
of us suffer from indigestion,
but we often don't know it. We
! think ir i? something else. Even docj
tors of:en mistake the symptoms.
Pale, thin people, who are overJ
worked, who need strength, who seem
| in want of proper food, should take
Shaker Dgjstive Cordial. It is astonishing
what food will do, when
properly digest*.d.
