Wednesday, October 18, - -1899 REPUBLICAN PROFESSION AND PERFORMANCE. History repeals itself, and the Republican leopard cannot change its spDts, O-i thi 22nd (Uy of July. 1861, , the IIoa*e of Representatives at Washington passed the following: "lied * _* ,t? ~ /^AntAro. solved, x? , iuai 'G<J present, ucj/iui-jble civil war has been fucel apon ihe coQDtry by the disuuionists of the Soother;) States now in revolt against the constitutional government awl in arms around the capi'al; ihat in this national emergency congress, bunching all feelings of mere passion or iesentmcnt, will recollect only its daly to the whole country; that this war is not wsged upon our part in any spirit of oppression, nor for any purpose of conquest or subjugation, nor purpose of overthrowing or interfering with the rights of established institutions of those states, but to defend and maintain the supremacy of the constitution and to preserve the union with all the 'nnolitv ?r>f1 Of the UlgUlljT) muaiiKi ?n ? ..to several states auiinpairei: and that as soon as these objects are roomplishcd, the war ought to cease.' Three days later the Sonate passed a resolution in almost identicilly the same word* This*resolution has very much the same ring as the highly moral resolution passed by Congress at the beginning of the Cuban war, in which it wa? declared that the United States intend* only to give independence to the people of that island. Now on the lit of Jaauary, 1863, Lincoln, forced by the war governors and other pestiferous extremists, signed the emancipation proclamation which attempted to free all negroes in v.,1 ?.o^ar?a(i e^RtPs. and thus deatrov the most important of those institutions that the resolution of 1862 declared should be maintained in all integrity. The seceded states were all reconstructed by President Johnson, and recognized insofar as they were needed to ratify the thirteenth amendment abolishiog slavery. Bnt when they refused to pass the fourteenth amendment which gave the negroes citizen ship and ditfrAncbited most of the white?, Co:?wre?? passed the act of March 2, 1867, overthrow i -g all state governments and putting ?he states in the hands of brigadier generals clothed with absolute power. The habeas corpus act was suspended, and every right wa3 taken from the people. Where wa3 the dignity of the state then ? Next the suffrage laws of these states were thrown in the waste bas* 1 1 11 * ? frt Kei, anu me wcic n w w vote on the question whether they should be tllowed to vote. This was the most inconsistent act of all. Then the kaklox acts were passed, and force bills ^attempted, and the people and the states were humiliated jast as long as the Republicans had power to harass them. Thus were their beautiful resolutions of 1862 carried out. With this experience at hand is it - q ortnffjorn men 5U) nrvuuci HIOI u avuiuvtu doubts the sincerity of McKinley and bis party. They sr6 pursuing the same coarse towards Cuba that they pursued towards South Carolina, and will jdoubtless annex both Cuba and Porto Rico in spite of the fact that tlisy have resolved that any step looking towards the conquest of Cuba would be an act of the grossest bad faith. Altogether we cannot promise our Cuban allies that they can put much tru^t iu the protestations of Mr. jJicKinley and his ilk. THEREjis a serious shortage in the cattle "supply of tke United State?. Several causes are assigned, one being the vast amount of beef sent to our armies and exported abroad, and another a lack of encouragement to raisers in the past few years owing to low prices set for beef on the hoof by the great slaughter houses. Local markets are also short in this state and iu North Carolina. It ha3 always seemed a mystery why cattle raiding shou'd not be lucrative in South Carolina. There are certainly abundant means of pistnrage. Even this sum ? 11? J-.. inar wDicn nas^oeen uausuji;jy ui v there are great crops of barmudrt, crowfoot, crab and other grasses i? the fields and along Ihe roads ev?rytshere. A serious evil, however, is oil ncrrci.liiifr crrtn Ctf TOffids O-f bUO ?U ^/V* 1 MM* Wg, v?v*r V. .. different kinds that are taking possession of the surface of the laud and mining it for purposes of pasturage or haymowing In the more advanced states .there are regularly appointed commissioners of weeds whose business is to search for noxious weeds and grasses and make farmers destroy them before they can spread. We in South Carolina go on quietly, apparently never caring what evil crop may come. The day is at hand when there must bo more attention paid to this matter and to the saving of hay and the raising of stock. Mr. Miles, chairman of the dispensary board, has a young nephew who in the eye of Mr. Ouzts is skittish. He is but seveoteen and can't keep a ledger, bat he does keep a paan:e aud paddies employes when they are bending over barrels. A little application of his own paddle might benefit ibis highly hilaiions young man. The most serious charge made by Mr. Oazts is that Mr. ?llaseld?n boasted that he bad paid ofl ten thousand dollars of debt bince becoming a dispensary official. BISHOP TURNER'S PLAN. | Bishop Turner has been in Charles* < ton and has made an tmeresuog tai* to a reporter of the News aod Courier, i He laughs at the idea that he ever intended forcible transportation of the colored race to Africa. But he says several millions *re ready to go there now, and would gladly embrace the j opportunity if one was offered. It i? not expected that all wou'd go. isnt the Bishop would like to have seven millions taken away at fifteen dollars a hoad; and would be willing to begin with one or two millions. He says that there is no prospect of race equality in this country, and that independent negroes feel it. Those who are content to live in inferiority aro mere v ?vi Ani j 13 "scullions" wneuier mcy uc uicui?, or college professors. It costs less than fifteen dollars a head to briog white immigrant!) to America, and it should cost no more to carry negroes I io Liberia, whicL is oniy a muo imther away than ?he porti of Europe. Charleston should establish a. line of steamers so thnt it will not be necessary to go 10 Ne?v York or Liverpool io reach Afaica. If a direct line wera established between a Southern port and Liberia there would be millions of dolUrs iii i; for the promoters. ! Rishoo Turner speaks very intelli gently and plainly. He is abs >iut* ly correct in bis views that the future of the uegio is elaewte e than iu the Sou'h. The Rtv Willard Richardson, who worked so f?ithfully for the negro in Wimirboro, was profoundly impressed with the idea and he actually induced missionaries atid sei tiers to go to Africa. It won Id be a mistake to laud anything like seven million immigrants in Liberia in a short time. They would only starve to death. Bat it would be wisdom to inaugurate a line of Government cubsiiized steamers to ply between Charleston and Liberia. Wc oppose any plan of ship subsidy but this. It CoDgresa wculd speed ten millions a year lor this purpose instead of wastiDs: ten limes tbat in order to acquis & still greater problem in the Philippine# and to cause more penliosi in the future, it would receive the thank? of all true patriots. We make this proposition: -that the Democratic party insert a plank in its platform providing ten millions a year for the next tea rears for a lins of steamers to ply to Liberia and for loans 10 negroe? wishing to take advantage of the Hoe. \fe believe the plank wou'd eaivy a number of colored voters in doabtfill State?; and would attract thousands of white voters who are sick at heart over the ever-iocrea?ing perplexity of the raceproMetn. ??? A representative of a leading religious auxiliary association who ha* recently returned from Minila Rajs . that he lelt forty-five thousand gamblers and blackguards in ihe A-n rican army at tb*t place, while saloon and all sorts of disorderly bousa have multipled infinitely since the President's campaign of benevolent assimilation began. Thi3 is no doubt an exaggeration; but it must be i\>mpmherfid that the American army is not like the Confederate army, composed of sober sedate men of faintty fighting for their homed, but rather of an adventurous crowd that were willing to go to Manila largely for the sights to be seen and ihe experience to be gained. The volunteers that did not leave the United Sta'es behaved badly in many places; and they would have doubiiees done much w^rse when r? TI,a ?r\ Io rvf away iroui icmisiui.. mo p F&irfield h ad enough expeii-nc-> Vith Sherman's men t> kt-ow wba! ihe flower of th-3 United Stages 'n>ops cm do when --.ot kept-under discipline; and ilie-, hare read enough ab:;ut Oris' incapacity to believe that discipline has been poor. It will not do t? brash aside such report* as planners. There should be investigation a ' pnni-sbment. It is time for the respective p*; tieans of Sampson and Schley to cool off a little and let ibe eirs of ttie puouc rest. Th?re is nothing special in either man to warrant the columns of adulation and abu;e !hat are bestowed on them respectively. Tfcj photographs of Sampson indicate a long rawboned Yankee with biif hands and feet and a stern eountenance. Those of Schley l-jvta! a rnan who, unlets b;s fa?e be!ie hiuo, is a terrapin-eating canvaa-back-duck consuming Southerner who can't bo fcoled aboat a brand of liquor, nor induced to become prohibition candida'e for ibe presidency. No doabt they are both good naval man; and ho donbt eiiher would have filled tbe other's place in j the bur of Santiago wi'h equal credit. 1 * ?* It IS iruu iUll Lie Aumu.ima'.iv.i seems so have been endeav -ring (o overslaugh Schley, and (hat is one reason the masses have been cheering him Now however that (he Devrcy ] parade is over and Schley has received | his sword it weuldn't t>? a bad matter to let all three admirals have a rest for a wkile. The affi davits npon whiuh a maj -rity of the Dispensary Board of Control removed Mr. Doatbit are fnll of interest. They reveal much carelessness. The committee claims that Mr. Douihit is over a thousand dollars behind;; while he declares.that he can explain j ever> thing satisfactorily. No dcr.bt j there is bad blood among the parties! concerned; bat the pubiie are inte-j rested in h*vi i<? the veil removed i whatever be the motive. Undu* the first ad mi u Ut ratio q everything about the dispensary was kept secret. All improper acts were hushed up, and the result was evil. We siva Mr. Haselden credit f >r the lact that since he ba; be?n in office he i?i> m ide mauv matters pub ic and has dote some corumeidabie 'biugs in the way of reforming :li2 management.

A good admixture of these two material?, while it will cot stand too hiu :b w?t weather, will not cut into rats to so great an extCDt as roads that are homogeneous. The Medium alludes to those who j don't take stock in the war as Tories. It would be more to the point to dab those who are trying to sell Cuba and the Philippines as carpetbaggers. The gist of this remark is that carpetbag-1 ging is the natural vocation of the j McKiuley- Ilanna-Roosevelt-Republi- j can-crowd; but we are sorry to see I the Medium; that was taught in the j strictest sect of Presby terianism neither i to sreal nor to covet, manifesting any ' symptoms of a de9ire to join that robj ber band. We hope that Dae West i will keep a sharp eye on it. According to Mr. Onzts, Chairman j Haseldcn is blessed with cousins and j each cousin has an agency for some J kind of liquor, and a pall, or several i pulls. He charges also that Mr. Haselden himself has sold liquor irregularly i and -.nore of it than Mr. Oazts has. ; Oae thing appears pretty plain through i circumstantial evidence, that some dispensary officials ,are specially interested in certain brands of goods, and Mr. Onzts thinks the rebates are not too high above one's head to be caught on the fly. Is it possible that Germany, Russia and France propose to sit quietly down and let England seize the gold mines of the Transvaal? If any nation can corner tkat gold and dole it out to suit itself it will ,be in a poeition to - it-. lead all other states, ana coniroi iue world. \ Millions Given Away.
