' The Stale Reform Nominating Convention . was me great event ol interest in South Carolina yesterday. It waa all Evans from Jump t 10 finish. t John liary Kvans was nominated for Governor by au overwhelming vote, and Dr. Tim- t merman was declared the nominee for Lieu- , tenant Governor by acclamation, but uoState | ticket was put up, though It came near win ning. A kind of a text of the sentiment In regard to giving the people a chance to ex press themselves uu the dispensary law was made, but tailed. Altogether, the convention was one of the largest bodies that ever gathered in Columbia, ana more business was done iu ibe same length of lime than at any of the conventi'ins ol recent years, While most of the talkers were new men, they managed to make things exceedingly lively aud Inter eating. THE PRELIMINARY PROCEEDINGS. It was about 11 o'clock when the delegates { eased their wire-pulling In the hotel lob'des, and wended their way towards the State Capitol. All during tlie morning there had been a good deal ol hard work going on to overcome the desire of a large number of the delegates 10 nominate a full Slate ticket. TlieD the several candidates for State olllces were hard at work looking out for their per* sonal interests aud getting promises out ol the delegates. By noou nearly all the delegates had found their seat# In the hall. The seats for each delegation were marked with placards. In the galleries aud outside the rail there were numerous spectators. In the former sat throughout the proceeding a good many colored preachers and politicians. THE CONVENTION CALLED TO ORDER. It was 12:13 o'clock when Chairman Sllgh j called the convention to order, and without c ttMJ picillllliini/ una vauvu iui MUiuiunuvur for temporary chairman of the convention. .< Mr. 0. C. Jordan nominated Mr. W. Gibbes a Whaley, of Charleston. The nomination was received with cheers and applause. It was t heartily seconded, and Mr. Whaley wan unau- f imously elected, amid vociferous applause. Just prior to this, a country delegate ran f up to the front and demanded that a United N Statos flag be put up on the stand before any- {, thing further whs dune. <j Mr. Whaley whs escorted to the stand by ^ Mr. Stansel). t On taking the chair. Mr. Whaley referred to the high houorpnid lum and Charleston r county. He said he was loo hoarse to make c auy speech, but he wished to say that in elect- ? lng him the Reformers of the State had dls- y played a disposition to appreciate the work j done by the Charleston Reformers in Charles- t ion, and he hoped that it would not be long helore Charleston should be brought In close v toucti with the rest oj the State, us she should v tie. Lie hoped that In a short time harmony would reign supreme in the Reform ranks. Mr. K. L. Guuterof Aiken was tben nominated by Mr. Jordan lor temporary secretary, r and was unanimously elected. n The credentials of the delegations were then chlied for, and ihe several chairmen handed i hem up. On motion of Mr. Sligh, Col. F. M. Mlxson of Columbia, was made assistant sec- ' retary. s THE DELEGATES. The roll wan tt>en tnaae up as follows: Anderson? J. P. Glenn, B. C Martin, C. H. Ratley, P.

Nh?I. it was decided to dispense with a committee on credentials and the roll was adopted as made un. Alike Powers, of Charleston, moved to make Ihe temporary orglnlzation permanent, rhere was considerable confusion. There was evidently much dissatisfaction with Mr. Whaley. only, however, on account of his voice. A motion was made to lay it on the table. Mr. Whaley then stated bis physical condition was such that he could not preside over the convention. Mr. M. R. Cooper, of Colleton, was then lominated. He was forthwith elected. On takng the chair he t han ked t lie con venHon for the lonor conferred on him on behalf of the peo>le of Colleton, the originators of the Colleon Idea, which they were here to carry out. The temporary secretaries were then elected >ermaneui secretaries. J'he rules of the State House of ltepresenta,lves were adopted as governing the convention. A motion by Mr. W. A. James, of Sumter, hat all resolutions be considered as offered, vlthout reference to any committee on rcsoutlons, was adopted. THE DJ8PKKSAKY. Mr. Jamfes then pulled from his pocket tbe ollowlng resolution, which he offered, saying hat It tiad been suggested to him by a good nany of the people of ills couuty: Kesolved, That tbe chairman of the State lelorm faction committee be instiucted to equest the Democratic State central commitee to place an*extra box at each polling place n the Democratic primary election to be held in August 28th Inst., for the purpose of getlng before the public a ialr and positive exiresslon of opinion from the white voters of liu Si! a f A nn tho H ianan un rv lour T n uu 1/1 hf?V rotors who favor the dispensary law as a soutlyu of the whiskey problem to vote "yes," ind those who oppose the same to vote '"no." Mr. Garrison promptly moved to table this esolutlon, Mr. Appelt asked him to withdraw his molou so as not to cut oft' debate. Mr. James then went on to say that the Idea lad been suggested to him by a good many teformers. The liquor people, he said, were tanking a good deal on the idea that the peo>le were not In favor of the dispensary. He bought, as Governor Tillman had said, that he law should be appealed to the people's ourt, aud let them pass upon It. He knew hat the result woula be overwhelming In the llspensary law's favor. alL sorts of liquor. Larry Gantt said he was lu favor of Mr. ames's resolatlon with an amendment. He iffered this resolution as his amendment: Resolved. That there be three tickets, one for prohibition." one "for the barrooms," >od one"lor the dispensary." Mr. Gantt said with this done he believed hat the vote would be overwhelmingly in avor of the dispensary. (Cheers.) Prof. W. N. Marchant rose In his might and rom his seat delivered himself of the profeslonal opinion that the constitutional eonven lou soon to be held would have to handle the llspensary {problem and act upon it, audit ens silly to try and bother with it now. He nnved to lay the resolution on the table. 1111. l/tlllUQU DHIU bllCIB WUH U litruilg M-llllnent all over the Slate In favor of the dlsteusary. Now, If this box business was prung at this late day, the people would not :now what was wanted of them. They had n almost every county already expressed heir sentiment in regard to the law. It was in imprudent aud rash resolution. Then it vould all come before the constitutional conrentloo. TABLEU. Professor Marchant's motion to table the esolutlon was then adopted, without a disrating voice. THE PLATFORM. Mr. W. D. Evans, the president of the State Mariners' Alliance, then ottered "the platform ind principles governing this convention and ieform party." The platform as preseuted van as follows: We, thfe Reform Democracy of South Caroiua, in convention assembled, recognizing he depressed condltlou of the peoplo, the eign of the plutocrat and the unequal lawH >f the national Congress, hereby artirm our alth In Democratic simplicity. We pledce anew our allegiance to the prir<slples, first enunciated by the illustrious itaresman, who founded our free Institutions, ind established the Democratic party, to proectand presere them. 1. We demand that the government shall stablish sub-treasuries or depositories In the ieveral Slates, which shall issue money direct ,o the people, at a low rate of interest, not to sxceed two per cent, per annum,on unpershable farm products,and also upon cultivated land, the quantity of laud aud tiie amount if money considered. 2. We demand that the amount of tlie clrsulative medium be speedily Increased to not ess than 850 per capita. 3. That we demand that Congress pass such aws us will effectually prevent the dealing In "urtures of all agricultural aad mechanical irodnotions; providing auch stringent system >f procedure In trials hs will secure the prompt conviction and Imposing such penal,les as shall secure the most perfect compllince with the law. 4 We condemn the silver bill recently passed by Congress and demand in lieu thereof he free and unlimited coinage of silver. 5. We demand the passage of the laws prolilbiting alien ownership of land, and that ,'ongress take prompt action to devise some ;>lan to obtain all lands now owned by aliens tnd foreign syndicates; und that all lands low held by railroads and other corporations n excess of such as is actually used and needed by them, be reclaimed by the government and held for actual settlers only. 0. Believing iu the doclrlne of equal rights :o all and special privileges to none, we denand. a. That our national legislation shall be so Yarned in the future as not to build up one ndustrv at the expense of another. b. We further demand a removal of the exsting heavy tariff tax Iroin the necessities of Ite that the poor of out land must have. c. We further demand a just and equitable lystem of graduated tax on income. d. We believe that the money of the industry should be kept as much as possible in the lands of the people, and hence we demand that uil national and Slate revenue shall lie limited to the necessary expenses of the gov;rntnenl economically and honestly administered. 7. We demand the most rigid, honest and ust State and uutlonul government control Mid supervision ol the means of public communication and transportation and if this joutrol and supervision does not remove the abuse now existing, we demand the govern-j mentownership of such means of coinr.tutilisation and transportation. 8. We demand that the Congress of the United States submit an ametidinetU to the constitution providing for ttie election of United States Senators by direct vote of each State. TIIK KKKK SIT.VKIt SCHK.MKS. Mr. James ottered an amendment that the words "at the ratio of 10 to 1" be added to the free silver plank. This was adopted. Mr. Kvans went on to say that this was the plattorm upon which the Iteform Democracy had goneou to victory In 1N92, and It was the plattorm upon Which all the candidate." for Governor In this year's campaign had gone upon. A delegate from Kdgefleld wanted the platform considered by sections. Mr. Appelt thought It better to consider it as a whole and let the couveutian get to the work it had to do. Mr. James moved to strike out the sub-1 treasury plant in the platform as presented, hut his motion was lost. Then on motion ol Mr. Evans the platform was adopted as a whole. Mr llennies, of Columbia, made a motion, which was adopted, to limit all speeches to Mvp minutes. Mr. Colcock. of Charleston, moved that the aonventlon proceed to the work which It was called to do?to the nomination of a candidate for Governor and Lieutenant Governor. Prot. Marchant offered as a subst'tute for Mr. Colcock's motion, a resolution "that the convention nominate a full State ticket, In block, by ballot, Including three candidates for railroad commissioners." Some one promptly moved to table this. Mr. Colcock lelused to accept the substitute. Mr. McCravy, of Laurens, stated that his delegation had come here unlnstructed and lie would like to hear thlsmattei of nominations fully discussed. A delegate from Beaufort, here interrupted and cried out. "Weil, If I'm in order will you please allow me to nominate Jno. Gary Kvans for Governor." (Lauebter.) Mr. K. J. Donaldson said bis delegation came here Instructed to make nominations for Governor and Lientenant Governor ; that done, let the wisdom of the body decide as to anything else. Mr. Cunningham tnoved to lay the substitute on the table. At this juncture things began to get very lively. Capt. Steadman, of the Aiken delegation, rose and exclaimed rather dramatically: "Before you go further, I would like to inform you that this man, who offered this resolution (Prof. Marcbaul) has done so against the instlnctions given him by tlie convention which sent him here." (Loud cheering.) Then there was much excitement. Prof. Marchant bounced up out of his chair. Mo lrwtko/1 n Hf Hp ivIIH ??nri in Hip mnul il rn- i matlc manner, waving his arms, as exclaimed : "I deny it. I deny it. He has made an assualt upon me. 1 have acted for the people of Aiken according to tbe instructions given me by my conscience." There was quite an uproar and in tbe midst of it tbecliuirman put the motion to lay Prof. Merchant's substitute on the table. Capt. Steadmau all the while appealing to the convention to be allowed to reply to Prof. Marchant. The substitute was tabled. MARLBORO AND OTHER RESOLUTIONS?NO GAG. Senator W. D. Elvans then asked the secretary to read Just at this juncture some resolutions. which were adopted by the Marlboro county convention by a vote of 57 to 11. Tne resolutions deemed it Inexpedient to make any nominations at all at the convention, and instructed the delegation to carry out the convention's ideas. This was received by the convention as information. Mr. Jarneghan announced that the Marlon county convention had endorsed tbe Marlboro resolutions, This was also received as Information. Mr. Hyrd, of Florence, made a similar announcement. Mr. C'olcock wanted to know what all this iiad to do with the business of the convention. Mr. Byrd evidently thought that there was to be some gag business for he walked out Into the aisle, and said : "1 am here as a renre sentative of the people of Florence, and I don't propose to be gagaed. We are entitled to uh much of a hearing upon tills floor ax anybody here. If they want to go rough shod over us, we will surely protest. II there is any dissatisfaction In the ranks with the nomination scheme, it seeins to ine now Is the time to bear it." Mr. Brice. of Fairfield, followed. They should have a free and fair expression ol opinion. He eutered lor the Fairfield delegation u protest against making any nominations whateve,-. lie sold two-thirds of the Reformers In his county were opposed to it. A point of order was raised. Mr. Colcock's motion was adopted In the confusion and nominations were called for. Mr. Garrls, in order to get to work, said he would be brief ind simply place before the convention the name of the Hon. John Gary Evaus, of Aiken, for Governor. (Cheers.) Mr. Appelt said It was not right to stifle expressions from delegates. Mr. Brice, of Fairfield, had uever yielded the fioor and he should be allowed to proceed. .Mr. Brice answered some questions and said that only one-tnlrdof the Reform voters In bis county bad participated In the primary and tiiey wanted no nominations. It was time to pause and think. They were tired of dissentloo. There was danger ahead of the Reform movement. Let us be united. Time was callcd on him and Mr. Duncan got the floor The point was raised that no vote had been taken on Mr. Colcock's motion. The chuirtnan ruled that the motion had already been carried. Mr. Duncan explained that the verycall for the con ventlon outlined what It was to do. SMOOTHING TROUBLED WATERS. Mr. O. C. Jordan, of Aiken, Raid lie did not understand all this. All knew what the convention had been called to do. Coming froui Aiken oh he did, he, however, wanted the matter thoroughly, openlv, fairly and honest ly discussed. He spoke In behalf of the candidate from his county. It had been charged that there watt a disposition to gag by certain men on the floor. Now, It seemed to him, ibIk was the place to *peak of auy opposition. If those delegates Instructed to oppose nominations did not present their protests they would be recreant to their duty. Mr. Brlce, replying to the allusion to "gngglng," called Mr. Jordan's attention to the lact that the Falrtleld delegation was ior Evans. The chairman agaiu ruled that the Colcock motion had been adopted. Mr. Colcock pleaded for it to be put again to ally all feeling. Mr. I'ettigru called lor the ayes and noe8. The chairman stated that the record showed that he was right but that he would put the motion again. The chairman of eccli delegation c.ist tlie vote for his county. The motion was theu adopted by a vote ol 2S2 to 3S, the counties of Fairfield, Horry, Marlboro and Florence voting iu the negative. J list, after the vote was announced Mr. N. H.Htunseli was appointed sergeuntat arrns on motion 01 n. u. ouisi, 10 uener preserve order. 51H. KVANS NOMINATKI). Nominations were then called lor for Governor and Mr. O. C. Jordan rose. lie mild tor Ihe high and exulted position of Governor id South Carolina, he desired to place oelore the convention ihe name of one who was a man, a noble man, a perfect, man in every sen*e. Mr. Jordan said: "In CokeHhury, in the county ol Abbeville, ou October 15,180'!, while the war was racing, there was horn a blackeyed boy?of tiie union of (Jen. N. U.

An old (nan, silting will) the Pickens delegation, tried to second t lie nomination, but the flood of tils feelings was so great he could not get his words out and lie got tangled no that, he fell into his scat amid laughter. Then in quick succession the Greenville, Laurens, Abbeville, Beaufort, Kershaw and Oconee delegations seconded the nominal ion. KI.I.EIillK IS NOMINATED. Senator VV. L>. Kvans then took the floor, lie said: "Upon an occasion like this, while we are all here as true and tried Relormers. I am not one of those who liuve anything within me but a feeling of pride at anything the Reformers do when they act. Y?*t, iu obedience to the simill minority vote that has been cast, I wish to put in nomination the name of a man just as true as the man who will be Governor. (Cheers.) I will not go Into past, records, but simply present the name o" the Hon. W. II. Kllerbe of Marlon, as a caudldate lor the nomination of Governor of South Carolina. (Applause.) The nomination was seconded by Mr. Cunningham and the Marion, Colleton and Hampton delegations. MB. TINl)AI. I.IKRWISK. Mr. E. N. Head fear n of Chesterfield, then presented the name of the Hon.

Mr. Jordan moved that, a committee ol three be appointed to wait on Mr. Evans and Invite him to the hall, after notifying him of bis nomination. Mr. Appelt moved that the committee be selected from the counties which voted against Mr. Evans. (Cheers and laugbter.) Mr. \V. D. Evans here stated it would be best to proceed with the nomination of a Lieutenant Governor first. He nominated ur. Tlrumeriiiun?who receiveu mt? uuuiiuaHon for Lieutenant Governor by acclamation. Mr. Gantt moved that Messrs. Ellerbe and Tlndal be also waited upon and Invited to seats on the floor of the convention. A committee of Ave was then appointed to wait on Mr. Evans and Dr. Tlmmermau, notify them of their nomination, and escort them to the hall; and Invite Messrs. Tlndal and Ellerbe to seats on the floor. The committee consisted of J. C. Klugb, D. J. Bradham, .I. C. Ellerbe, O. C. Jordan and W. D. Evans. Home waDted Governor Tillman trotted In too. The Convention then took a recess for 15 minutes. "OUK NEXT GOVEKNOK." After awhile the committee returned escort- 1 Ing Jno. Gary Evans and Dr. Tlmmeruian to thestaud. Evans came in on the arras of Mr. 1 Klugh and Mr. Jordan. He seemed to be ' pretty well satisfied. As soon as order could be obtained, the chairman said : "It is now my pleasure, gentleman of the convention, to 1 Introduce the future Governor of South Car- ' olinn." (Prolonged applause.) ' Mr. Evans stepped up to the front; cleared bis throat and began to speak. He was most attentively listened to and at times was In- 1 terrupted by vociferous applause and cries of "Bravo!" Mr. Evans was so enthused that before he finished the perspiration rolled from his brow In huge drops. He spoke as follows: i _ _ 1 SPEECH OF JOIiH <iAitY KVAJiS. I Gentlemen of the Convention and Fellow Re 1 formers: 1 The feelings of the human heart cannot be ' expressed by word of mouth. Assweet music J is the language of the soul so is the sympathetic glance of the eye, the hearty shake of the hand and the brotherly embrace, the true 1 iaiiguage or the heart. To say that I thank ! you seems cold and is but a poor expression of the heart that goes out to each and every ! one of you. Any words I ralght%ay to you , intended to represent my thanks to this body | would be iuHdequate. There is, gentlemen, a ; trite Haying that (he heart speaks most when J the lips move not, and I am sure that Is recog- ' nlzed by every member here when I attempt 1 to express my appreciation of this nomina- ' tlon which means an election to the highest office within your gift. There is in my nom- 1 luatlon an expression of the people, which ' means more than any pen can write or any human lips confess. I representthatelement 1 In the Reform faction which was born during ' or since the late conflict of arms between the ( Nortn and South, that element of the young ' Democracy which now must carry the older ' element?our grandfathers and fathers? upon ' our shoulders as Aeneas did old Anchtses?a ' precious burden. It has been truly said that ' the hope of the State is in our young J men, but no less true is it that the 1 pride of the young men is the history and " the traditions ol the old men who have maue 1 thIh country glorious. (Cheers and voices, . "That's bo ; every word of It.") 1 1 stand nere as a representative of Reform and a rebuke to your enemies who have attempted to say thai the Reform movement Is to array class against class. I stand here to c defend the principles of my father and your s fathers?that principle for which they fought, uled and died, that principle which Is dear to c our hearts, that principle which has been t denied to us, but which has been recognized I by the Reform movement of South Carolina < ? 'Equal rights to all, special privileges to I uoue." (Cheers) Previously, a man without j a history, without a war record * In South Carolina thought to be ? Ineligible to office In this State. While I am j here as a young man and 1 don't mean that ? in tlie sense which that word has been a stigma In South Carolina, but I stand here as ( a young man who was born since the late conflict, and I have grown old in experience, which has enabled you, fellow citizens, to ?taud here as representatives of pure Democracy. demanding that the will of the majority. J when fearlessly and honestly expressed, must . govern. Ai.y man who attempts to put the Reform ' movement of Sjuth Carolina upon a narrow s minded basis, who attempts to array class iiKninst cIhss, who attempts to say that the , lteform principles of South Carolina are 1 founded upon animosity aud prejudice, In my nomination, you have a contradiction of such ?? -/.Irvine Tho Dol',.,,, pt-TVtirMUll ui i m piiuupico. AIIC ikVIUI movement is a movement of the people and i one of its fundamental principles is that the t majority must govern,giving a ilue respeci u to the minority when honestly expressed, a iCheers.) i! Now, gentlemeu of the convention, I take It ? that it will l>e Improper for me til Huh time to t outline to you the policy which Khali govern < me In the future; I take It thiit the people ol i South Carolimi have spoken through you to e Ihe world, and I take it that the people ol [ <1 South Carolina through their endorsement of I me have eodorsed the administration which :i has preceded me. Our past administration | c has beeu conducted with an ability and fair- i v ness I hat. should satlsly the most hypercrlti-11 cat, and has set the pace for our sister .States v nfihe South and West, which must dually s result In the disentbrallment of our people I from the oppsesslon from the money | power of the East. 1 shall endeavor in my ( administration lo .bring about this cousum- c nation so devoutly to be wished for. I say to n you and to the world that the Reform administration shall have but one object, and thut Is thd happiness and prosperity of the peonle. This, I am sure. Is the sentimeut which has been expressed by the Reformers and which has resulted in my nomination. There has been one law which has been fought more strenuously th in any other In the history of our legislation?that Is the dispensary law. The overwhelming sentimeut of the people of South Carolina Is that that law has In view the happpiness of the whole people, and the voice of the people must be carried out, let ihe consequences bo what they may. The people have spoken by their representatives, and 1)7 per cent, of the honest white men of South Carolina have spoken in favor or It. oentieman, mat voice siiau ue heeded by me; the eulorcement of that law shall be u>y prime object, and I believe I have ! behind me the houest men, the virtuous wo! men, and even the little chlldreu of South j Carolina. (Cheers.) I shall not attempt to outline my policy?; that will be given later, when I shall have the pleaHure of addressing the people of South Carolina as a unit. Let me say that while peace and har- j mony are the great objects to be desired ! and to be obtained by all civilized govern-1 men Is, yet you must recognize that In South , Carolina, where there has been but one parly, such an ideal is an ideal conception. There j can be no such thing as unity In the midst of political dissensions. Our principles Is tiiat th?* ma|orlty of the white citizens must rule and the minority must submit. Gentleman, that Is the only cause of dissension today In the politics ol South Carolina. Wliuture the principles uf Reform ? I shall tint enter into tbeui, Yuu kuuw tbeui too well; you k now I h nye tried to be the exponent of tbem. Yon know I have loved those principles; you know I have voted for those principles. The only opposition in South Carolina to-day to the principles of the Reform movement is based on prejudice. No reasonable white citizen can object to the principles ol the Reform movement In South Carolina. They cannot, (cheers.) Those principles are laid down even by our own statesman, John C'. Calhoun, as the grandest to perpetuate popular government, and embodied in the Farmers' Alliance, principles upon which, I might say, depend the success and prosperity of the agricultural people. (Cheers.) Can there be any objection to that? Can there be objections to that Interest upon which we are dependent ? We are dependent upon the agricultural Interests, and must recognize the principle upon which depends the life or populur government in this Union. A combination of the South and West alone will save popular kovernment in this Union.and that will be expressed in I8H6, If my judgment amounts to anything. (Cheers.) The combination of the power of wealth against the combination of the agricultural interests and laboring interests and laboring Interests is to-day concentrated in the East. That concentration can only be defeated by the solidity and unanimity of the South and West, expressed through their organization, which in the mouthpiece and which speaks for the bone and sinew In our land. (Cheers.) And when I hear my countrymen oppose It, I feel III... ...I... . - .1/1 -J ? * I? . im?- iu mew, ?vjuu pity lueui ; mey Know not what to do." Now, fellow-citizens, united in our ranks, we are confronted to day by opposition which has not reason behind it; an opposition that cannot succeed under the laws of Goa nor under the laws of man, because that opposition is founded upon a basis which can never succeed. Your principles must prevail, because they are far removed from sectional and class privileges, and you say we wantaman who ha; the nerve and ability to stand by them, and that man shall be the man to represent us. [Cheera.J Jhis is the voico of south Carolina which will prevail next November in spite of, you mghtsay, the assiduous attempt to array one class against another class or one people against another people. But we are united, we have canvassed the entire State of South Carolina. There is no dissension In our ranks, but our opponents are alert. They are anxious to make it appear that there are dissensions. When I look before oie and see my father's old soldiers?when 1 look and see before me lawyers, doctors, merchants, farmers and laboring men?when I see before me the bone and sinew of popular government, I think It is a rebuke to our opponents when they say that the Keform movement of South Carolina is composed of anv particular class. Now one word as to my competitors. We have fought this flgbt; we have fought as brothers, we have not fought as enemies, as our opponents tried to impress upon you, and I have this to 9ay about the the noble Ueformers who went Into this flgbt, who opposed me, they never hit below the bell. (Cheers.) 1 know we are brothers; we are arm in arm, fight ing for your cause, and when the people express their opinion, their choice, there is no dissension, and when tbe attempt is made to make dissension these opponents of mine are ready to rise and say, "Thus fur sbalt thou go and go no further." This is the voice of tbe people. (Cheers.) We have fought for our principles upon one platform, and the people of South Carolina are unanimously, I might say, In favor of those principles. When 1 say the people, I don't mean those who are actuated by prejudice and animosity, bocause they ure beyond the pale af citizenship. Tbey cannot reason, and have no right to be called true citizens. (Cheers) I will not detain you longer. Ata future occasion 1 will announce the nollcv of mv administration. 1 tiavebeen connected possibly more Intimately with your movement than any other man In your midst, mid I have been unswerving in my principles. 1 shall hew to the line mapped out by you, and as advocated by me on this floor, and I shall stand in those principles until they ore written In letters vbich cannot be mistaken ; in letters which will be written over the world, and when the history of thif movement is written they will say lu unmistakable characters, behold the administration which has but une object?the happiness and prosperity of the enLlre people of South Carolina. (Prolonged cheers.) Mr. Lvans concluded his speech amid a perfect storm ol applause. I)R. TIMMEP.MAN'8 SPEECH. The chairman of the convention then introduced Dr. W. H. Timinerman, the nominee for Lieutenant Governor. As the doctor, who had fixed hlinsell up for the occasion, mounted the speaker's stand and >egan to glance around, very much as would an elephant upon a crowd in the menagerie ol a circus, a ilight titter was heard about the ball, which in a few nomenta developed into a general laugh. The doctor's lace and shape, which he has been running ou through the campaign, were too much for the crowd. But he stood it and proceeded to make a bright speech. Dr. Timmerman said: Gentlemen of the Convention: I have read somewhere, in some book, at some time, where a doge ol Venice went to visit the court of Louis XIV, In b'ranae. He stood about and seemed to be thoroughly surprised and bewildered. When asked what surprised hiui most, be answered "To find myself here." [Cheers und prolonged laughter.) Gentlemen that is :he way it is with me today. Here, ia the presence if this assemblage, 1 can well say I am surprised at .tie unanimity with which I have been endorsed foi Lhe otiice of Lieutenant Governor. For this conti- 1 lence, I sincerely thank you, and usk you to bear to rour constituents my most grateful acknowledge 1 nenta. As uiy distinguished youug friend has :laimed to be the representative of the young men, 1 ilaim to stand here as the representative of the older nen. (Laughter.) Ami I shall uphold him in all his rlfurts lor the honor of South Carolina. (Cheers.) 1 im but an humble citizen. I haye lived on a farm alk.. . I ..I In nnlonn With nil lie people. I don't profits to be an orutur, bat a pure uid loyal Reformer. (Cheers.) My debtiny is with he Reformers of bouth Curoliuu. It will be my pride ind glory, in the discharge of the duties of my offiee, ;o represent the whole people of South Carolina. Dr. Tlminerman at the conclusion of his address was oudly applauded. MR. ELLERBE RESPONDS. There were repeated calls for Ellerbe. He had j ust loine in and taken his seat near the front, aud be re iponded by going upon the stand. Mr. Ellerbe said: Qentlemen of the Conventlou: I don't know that 1 :an thank you for what you have done today, (laugher) but I do ssy that I am not mad with you, nor am I sulking. We have had a tight inside the ranks. My listingulshed opponent, whom you have nominated, knocked down the persimmon, and 1 not only con* ;ratnlate him, (applause) but pledge him the hearty upport of my friends, as well as that of myself. 1 Wll proVe to you that I am a Reformer from princl>le, and that l ean work as well for Reform at home is in otllce. My distinguished friend will have my coiperation to make bis administration a success. Voice: "Br.ivo!") MR. TINDAL CALLED. Callt were then made for Mr. Tlndal. Mr. Klugli >f the committee announced that Mr. Tindal was ibseut from the city. Mr. Appelt then stated that he ook the responsibility of endorsing for Mr. Tindal vbat Mr. Ellerbe bad saiil. This announcement was < ;reeled with much cheering. A motion to adjourn was made but withdrawn. A 'Ole or inunKs to me ?nairman arm secreiarieD ?u.lassed. PROF. MARCHANT BRINGS ON A CRISIS. Mr. Murcliant theB got around In front of tbe stand 1 n aouie way and cried out: "Mr. Chairman, the mo ion before the convention now is that we nominate ' i lull State ticket." A dozen men jumped up all round and there was a great hubbub. It was evllent thut the big tiirht of the day was on; that there vas a possibility of the advice of Evans and Tillman icing disregarded. The chairman ruled Prof. Marhaul out or order. Through It all some one made a notion to adjourn. The motion was put by thr halrmaii, and the ayes and noes were about equally livided. Prof. Marchunt jumped to his feet when tbe aye? imI noes had been demanded, and yelled : "We want he names of the delegates called : we don't want any oting by delegations. I know what the rules of this louse are." There were cries of "sit down," anil the j vhole thing was settled by the chairman ordering the | i-oretary to call the roll. As tbe voting went on, it ooked until the very close, that the nomination peoile were going to carry the day. The Colleton and >aurens delegations at the hist minute, however, hanged ihelr votes, and made It apparent that noroilations were not to go. TO NOMINATE OR NOT TO NOMINATE.

Just at this juncture, before the vote could be announced, Mr. Jordan offered the following resolution, which was unanimously adopted: Kesotved, That this convention unanimously endorse the candidacy of B. R. Tillman for tbe United States Sedate, and pledge him our earnest and hearty support. BRINGING IN TILLMAN. This was the signal for cries for Tillman from. Prof. Marchant and others, and Mr. Jordan burated out to get the Governor, crying "I'll bring htm." In a few moments Mr. Jordan returned, bringing Governor Tillman. The Governor appeared to be In a rollicking humor and much satisfied with himself. On taking tbe stand tbe Governor glanced around him with a superior smile on his bee. He said : Gentlemen of the Convention?I am sure this la qnlte unexpected to me, but I have heard so many whoops and yells in the campaign that I have become uccustomed to tbein. I suppose some of yon fellows were in tbe crowd. (Hurrahs.) I congratulate you on the. harmony which has characterized your proceedings today. If the Reformers all over tbe State will act as you have done todny I expect we will continue to march on to victory. You are all aware of ? the fact?that is I suppose you are...I don't know that yon are?that I am going to the United States Shnate. (Laughter and applause.) You know we are passing through a transition stage in national pol ma nun, uuu i icn jrou 1 inienu 10 go mere W1CD my pitch-fork, too. (Voice?You had better carry It sharpened too.) As I said In rnv Interview for the New York Herald the other day, the national Democracy is doomed to defeat in the next election, for under the presr-t rotten leadership they don't deserve any thing but defeat. (Applause.) la that interview for the Herald, I said we mast cast about for new leaders. Your &alvation rests in the anion of the South and West against the money power of the North and Ka#t. I thank you for my endorsement, and when elected to the Senate, I promise you I will do my whole dnly, as I have always attempted to do towards you In the past. Mr. Slattery, as the Governor was leaving the stand, called to him through the applause ana told him that the convention would like to bear bis views on the tariff. Governor Tillman replied that he bad uxprrssed himself in the Interview, and that he thought it a fraud and sham. Governor Tillman then retired from the hall; the vote given above was announced, and the convention was declared adjourned. CONVENTION TIPS. Governor Tillman spent the day In his office and hod tnany callers. At one time there was every indication that a full ticket was going to be nominated. Ellerbe made many friends by his speech, but, alas, too late. There will hardly beany bolting of the convention's nominations by the friends of Ellerbe or. Tindal. Editor Moore of the Charleston Sun was present at the convention. The chairman used a table leg to rap things to order. Most of the delegates got away from the city on the evening trains. Tohn Gary Evans spent the evening at the execative mansion to get away from appointment hunters vtrv likely, and went rldlnir in the afternoon. It looked funny to see Dr. Pope in town and not in a Reform convention. No ladies fere in the galleries during the convention. Now for the primary on the 28th. That's the next political puzzle. How will Pope run against Evans? There's lots of extra votes for somebody. V Met Store. What is being sold there and the price for same. 800 best matches for 5c. A good cedar backet 10c.
