. The Press and Banner! ! ABBEVILLE. S. C. j ^T-Published every Wednesday at ?2 a year in advance. I Wednesday, Sept. 28, 1892 Kliirky Debtors and Halky IIorN<><t. All persons who owe debts to the banks and to the merchants who have credited them should he scrupulously careful to pay their indebtedness. Anj body can pay a debt when money Is plentiful, but it takes an honest man to make sacrifices to meet his obi igallons In years like this. Tho fact is, that punctuality Is necessary to preserve credit. Credit may be harder to get next year, and money may be still scarcer; therefore put yoursell square on the record. I>on*t dodge, and plead hard times in extenuation. That won't do. A fellow tli.it does that is like a balky horse that pulls all right as long as the ic uuoi hut refuses to do his duty when the Joad Is to be taken up the hill. At best. a balky horse and an unreliable debtor, is a poor excuse of either a horse or a man. If the balky horse couldn't pull the whole load he could at least put out his strength in the right direction, and If the debtor cannot nay all, he can at least pay whatever he has, and make a clean breast with his creditor. The main thing to do is to preserve your own selfrespect and then command credit, because of good character and honorable effort. Governor Tillman has been re-nominated by a large vote, and is evidently thecholce of a majority or the people of South Carolina. It is our duty to accept him as the Chief Executive of the State, and we believe the war on him should now end, on all matters dating prior to his nomination. It would be better for the peace and liar. inony of the people, and il \vi>uId be better for our credit abroad, if tlie strife should cease. It matters little to the great mass of thr people which of tbe two candidates were successful. Our own convictions are. that about the only issue involved in the recent campaign was the otficei: Whether "me and my wife, my son John and bis wife," should get them, or whether "me and wife, my son John and his wife," should live in the ranks and let somebody else hold the offiees. I an outsider, who expects nothing for either bimself or any of liis kin. It is unseemly for the office-seeking class, or their friends, to set up a great howl because they were defeated. We must submit to the rule of the majority. "Let the just censure attend the true exent," auu ICl liie auujiuisiruuuu iijuivcu nc?? iwwim upon which to base our criticisms. We have riddled the past, and it would foe like beating old straw to revive the old objections to Tillman. l>o Your Duty, Governor. We see that the Governor is considering the petition of the slayer of Mayor Iletineman, of Spartanburg, and that a great number ol citizens of thatcltj' are protesting aghinst the possibility of clemency for the condemned man. This newspaper knows nothing of the facts of Ihe case, and has no feeling one way or another, but we do hope that the Governor will do his whole duty in the matter. Let the Governor not forget that he alone is responsiole for the discharge of his duty In the matter. Let him not forget that the negro is friendless and can look to none other ior succor. Let him investigate llie evidence, aud then let him weigh it carefully. If there are palliating circumstances, let them have proper weight in coming to a decision. If the nearo Is guilty of murder, 1ft him haug higher than Haman, but if a less punishment is deserved, don't inflict the more severe penally. The Governor'* Speech. The speech of Governor Tillman, upon being notified of his re-election, has been very generally criticised in most favorable terms by those wh.o were against him In the campaign. If the Governor, in The future, will square his official utterances with his speech of last Wednesday, the people will think better of him,and he will think bettor of the people. Let us hope, therefore, that tlie Governor will strive to be the Governor of the whole people, and let us further hope, that his official acts in the luture may be such as to command the respect and coufidecceof all the people. But, whether or not Mr. Tillman mal:es the Governor that the minority would wish, he is the choice of a majority of tlie people, and we should sustain him when Ills acts warrant us in so doing, and we should only repudiate luture acts which seem wrong In themselves. May Ministering Angel* Uclt'iid I'm. it is to be hoped that an overruling Pro\ tuenee may save this people from the evils incident to u Constitutional Convention which shall overthrow the organic law of the land, wlien a Convention may fasten a Constitution upon us without our consent. We do not want to do away with the home* stead. We cannot well exist if the credit of the poor man is taken away from him, s<? that Incannot mortgage his crops for advances ol supplies witli which to make his living. The three-dollar poll tnx is a burden which should not be inflicted <>n any people. Abbeville Alnnys a Portion ol' file Plums. The next Legislature will elect several Judges, and it Is presumed that the old judges will have to give place to new men, who know which side of their bread is buttered, and w ho liui'A nnt VPt. hf'i'M rnujirilwl As: A lihuvilio never foils to get a portion of the good things that are to be given out, we expect several plunls to be divided out with our citizens. Abbeville, by virtue of the merit* of her cit" i/.ens, deserves to get a portion of the good things. To Subscriber* in Arrears. Wcwlsh that every subscriber would exam iae the date of the label on his paper, which it. Intended to show the time to which each has paid. If any error has occurred we will be glad to correct the suiue on notification of the mistake. We ask each and every one to renew his subscription at the earliest date possible. IlUnm li.lunn l.i.r..,i.Uulo llolf in ft "If I. her. tf "Bread aiul Butter." Judge Kershaw, becauseof his ago; Judge Hudson, possibly', because of liis crankiness in wanting prisoners acquitted or convicted on the primary election plan, and Judge Wallace, because lie construed some of the laws difl'ereutly Irom "the administration," wi 1' probably have to walk the plank, to tive place to gentlemen who may be suiliciently sagacious to see which side Of their "bread is buttered." .(Ml. The minutes of the Teachers Associations, (white and colored,) were not received uuiil late Monday evening. Hecausc of pressing advertisements, it was then too late for lust week's issue of the Press and Manner. It seems to us now that the minutes are somewhat old. as the Associations held their meet itigs in the early part of the month. We are sorry for the delay in ending the copy, and we regret that circumstances prevented their j appearance last week. If the secretaries will excuse this time, we hope to do our whole duty and more too, ue.\t time. I NINETY-SIX NEWS, o Store ISroltoii Open ? Eluuorv foil' IVrred?Visitors?Ilnpp.v .Wurriiiisw?

UnUer tiieir combined talent an<l taste, with the cooperat'on of frieni's, t here arose from tiieir touch such a marvel of beauty of design, and tonjeousoess of display, as is seldom seen in any city. The room in which the nupl'a s were celebrated was like fairyland, or as i ne cou'd coiilu imagine like Kden itself. Field and ll?iw<r srarUen, gave ample tribute of their wealth, astonishing the beholder by their profusion, an.I beauty. The bay-window where Ihe bride was to stand wasnr lied from door to ceiling with evergreens and white tlowers, having a solid back grou d of t he same. Fl'om the center of the arch in the wall was suspended a magnificent. white iisier->'ell lined with pink asters, while a puie while lilly prijeeted from the midst, arborvitae was traced all around the room as si deep wainscoting, and at the top as a friege.
