LOGAN, of Charleston, Is not authorized to take advertisements for this newspaper. Wednesday, Nov. 8, 1893. Hampton's Letter. The letter whloh the Hon. Wade Hampton wrote on the 81st ultimo to N. G. Gonzales, Esq.. will be read by everybody. General Hampton, upon his defeat for reelection behaved himself with becoming dignity, and even tho*e who voted to put another In bis place did so with regret. Bnt they thought the time bad oome when new men should be put In office, and so they in sorrow retired their beloved chieftain of '78.. Though every citizen has perfect respect and love for him, yet the mention of his name now no longer electrifies the great public heart. As far as we now recollect, no man has ever assailed bis fair tame, or attempted to pluck one laurel from hU distinguished brow. His unequalled career as a leader has been ended, and bis day as a moulder of public opinion baB passed. His glorious record and his untarnished reputation In war and in peace have been recorded, and the historic book may now be closed. Forgetful of the fact tbat the times change and tbat men change with tbem be still dreams of the past and falls to realize tbat bis power as a leader bas departed from him, and that his oounsel is no longer needed by bli beloved oountrymen. The great and ohlvalrous Hampton now lives in recorded blstory, and his achievements and triumphs have been as great aB those of any other Carolinian, but bis work is finished. With a record so bigb and with a character which no man could assail, it is to be regretted that be now in bis old age should do any thing to bedim so bright a record. If we read bis letter aright it 1b nothing more nor leu than an effort to do that which wonld reanlt In a permanent division among a people who should be at peace with themselves and all mankind. General Hampton by his letter brings again to notice the ghost of the Hasteellisra or the Independentlsm which we had In 1690. Because they do not see as he does, General Hampton wonld read the great mass of the people of this State out of the Democratic party, and he coansels the withdrawal of a small faction of his friends lrom all participation In the affairs of the gpvernmenu and It may be set down as a fact that no man who wonld take his advloe to quit the Democratic party to follow him Into a little Independent or Haakelllte squad, no matter under whatever name, need expect to hold office or be anything else than a disturber of the peace. Whatever the facts may be, U will be hard to convlnoe the people that the act of a Populist In quitting the Democratic party Is essentially different from that of a National or Independent Democrat who does the same thing. If both quit the State Democracy /Inam nnt nrta ifMorifl ahnnt as much credit an the other tor honesty of purpose and patriotic Intent? Both put themselves beyond the pais of the Democratic fold, and are no longer oar political allies. The only way for the members of the deposed faction to regain power and office la through the votes of the people, and bow any set of men expect to gain political office by withdrawing their fellowship and Insulting the people is more than we can understand. With very few exceptions we believe the people recognise the fact that the Tillman Ites are now more solidly nnlted than ibey have been at any previous time. The an Lis bave no recognized leader, and a large per cent, of tbern are as much opposed to Haskelllsm as they are toTlllmanlsm. General Hampton may as well understand ihti uon u late, and he ousht to know that be Is do longer a power Id Sooth Carolina, and that it will be a long time before he can make any apology for Haskelllsm, and before any movement wbiob originates In Columbia will take bold of tbe people. General Hampton ought not to write letters dow, but be ought to preserve a dignified silence. If be comes hack to South Carolina to organise Haskelllte or Independent clubs he will be mortified, and ir be goes ont among tbe people and attempts to tell them thai they are no longer Democrats, the people who honored him years ago, may make It unpleasant for him. Speaking for tbe Press and Banner we want no repetition of the foolishness of 1892, when this oountry was torn asunder for no possible good and when It was not possible for any good result to follow. We Intend to stick to tbe Democratic party of South Carolina, no matter what platform It may adopt or who it may put into office. We Intend to stick to the people and we Intend to work for tbe good of ail, and we shall strive for tbe bonor of the State according to tbe lights before us. It is rery little to us if one man Is put In office and ir another Is retired to private life. The needed thing Is obedience to law and respectful submission to tbe will of the majority of the people. No matter how self-sufficient or how selfopinionated tbe minority may be, and no matter bow little personal regard they may have for the men who bold the offices, yet it is the daty of the minority to yield due and proper respect to those in authority. The people who are now standing to Tillman stood to Hampton in '76, and they are Jnataa good U>dayaa they were then. Hampton and Tillman are different men, bat the people who voted for them are the same. If they were patriots in '76 they ate none the leu loyal to South Carolina in 1893, though they may choose different leaders. ? . ? The Nolllflera Without Hope. Some of the newspapers are still fighting moat vigorously against the State administration, and especially against the Dispensary law. It seems to ub that they will never rest satisfied until every Anti is out of office, and until every Anti has sealed bis political fate beyond all hope of future participation In the affairs of the State. If the State ever misseduapt. w. jjawson nut hi me jjiw ent time. If be bad been living to-day be would no doubt bave labored fortbe unification of oar people, and as a consequence this State would bave been living in a condition of peace to-day. Tbe action of Charleston and other oltles of this State however, In refference to tbe Dispensary law, has nearly brougbt about tbe same unification by a different way. If we know anything at all about tbe public sentiment of tblB State, there is a fixed determination to enforoe tbe laws of the country. While we believe that someof theold Judges may, and ought to be, re-elected, yet we think It is perfectly certain that some of them will not be re-elected. Those Judges who seem to be so willing to Interfere with a oo-ordlnate branch of the Government cannot hope to be more than temporary disturbing Actors and the centres upon which tbe nulllfiers place their waning hopes. If it had not been for tbe recalcitrant Judges tbe probability Is that tbe nulllfiers would bave gone out of business before now. In order to bring peaoe to this tired country, tbe Legislature should let all disturbers of tbe peace and eucouragers of tumult go out of office. Those who are kicking so vigororously seem not to anaeremuu mc || ,Y ,-r ;- '-:. : . ; >. DIDN'T MEAN TO BE UNJUST. Uoveraor Nbeppnrd Did not Mean or A Wish to be Reported. Editor of the Edgefield Chronicle : In the last Issue of your paper there appears what purports to be an "Interview" betwen U myself and a reporter of the Charlotte (N. C.) Observer, and you have kindly commend- J ea the views which were attributed to me. But I cannot enjoy unmerited praise, as I C would not submit to undeserved censure. Hence It Is my duty to say that I have not v been Interviewed by any reporter of the Ob- a server, or otherwise. The facts are as fol- 8 lows: A friend of my own, who now lives b in Charlotte, came luto my office on a social visit. We discussed numerous questions, na- si tlonal and State, such as the tariff, the repeal a of the Sherman Act, the dispensary, the metropolitan police force, etc. There was not K the slightest expectation, or suspicion on my d part certainly, that anythng that was said was for publication. I do not care who knows d my views upon any public question; but I cl prefer to express them In my own way and cl tn my own time. d wniie in my ooice, my ineuu unc.v . and exhibited what he had written tome. I si at oncesaw that what be had written was iu k the form ot an Interview, and, without reading all, banded it back to him,and remarked C that I bad not been talking to the public, cl and that I did not desire at this time to talk d for publication. tl What was said was of no interest to the public, and was not Intended for publication. T Hence, and after ray protest to my friend, I tl was greatly surprised to see that be had re- t< ported" anything that bad been said. Whou- t< ever in my Judgment, my opinion upon cur- & rent topics becomes a matter oi Importance t< to tbe public, I shall not hesitate to express t< it in some appropriate and accurate, if not forcible, form, H I regret to disappoint the cheerful but S hasty conclusion of my friend of the Press and Banner touching my "eminent igno- si ranee of tbe true suuation in South Caroll- a na," but my duty to my6elf prompts me to express the injustice done me, even though o bis sense of Justice may not prompt him to 1? admit It. Very respectfully, J. C. Sheppard. ^ d ON A VISIT TO ABBEVILLE, ? ? :? v The lnb? Rapid Growth ot the Town s ?The New Connty?Roll of Honor? B The Statos Qno. tl Jones, S. C., Nov. 4, 1803.
