I The Press and Banner A. BBETILLE, S. O. iS^Pu^lished every Wednesday at $2 a year in advance. Mr. roswell t. logan, of Charleston, la not authorized to take advertisements for this newspaper. J I Sixteen [Pages. Wednesday, Oct. 24, 1894. (Irby's Convention. The Register has usually been reasonably telr, but when tbat paper makes a statement which aeema to excuse an Inexcusable act of partlzanshlp, we are surprised. a few days ago, that paper said: "The Democratic party of the 8tate Is pledged to a Constitutional oonvention, and ft Is not the business of tbe State Democratic executive committee to have tickets against the convention printed. The Republicans and Independents who do not want a convention can have tickets printed if they want t? in ihoir hnsinftm to look after that." The great public heart loves jastloe and fair play, and honest men, under all circumstances, despise a little mean thing, and it will bs very surprising to us If the better element ot the Tillman ranks do not resent the t<. apparent effort to take advantage of anybody. Good Tillman men in this county love fair play, and would not win by a trick. Tiie act In Itself is not worthy of men who claim to be fair in dealing with their brethren. "The Democratic party is pledged to a Constitutional Convention." The Joint Resolution submits the question "to the qualified voters oi the State," and not to the Democratic party. The Democratic party Is not pledged to order the Convention. If so, why did not the Joint Resolution refer the question to that party, instead of to "the qualified voters ?" But suppose the question bad been left entirely to the Democratic party, (and from which election all Republicans and Independents would be excluded,) it was certainly as mnoh the duty of the executive committee to furnish ballots for those Democrats who were opposed to the Convention as it was to furnish ballots for those favoring the Convention. Bnt we commend the honesty of the Register in announcing the un&ir purpose on the part of the executive committee in time to give ifclr minded citizens an opportunity, not only to reteut the proposed trick, but to provide tickets whereby a full and fair vote may be taken on the question of calling a needless $100,000 Convention to be paid for with five oe its ootton. The evident pnrpose of the executive committee not to seek a fall and blr expression of the people baa been discovered in time to prevent any snap judgment in fovor of those who presume to dictate to Intelligent and decent white people bow they shall Tote. In Radical days the recently emancipated negroes received orders from Colombia as to bow they should vote, and their tickets were prepared for them, and they would vote no other, but we hardly think that intelligent while men of Abbeville county are going to submit to the dictation that was praoticed on the negroes twenty years ago. The Press and Banner believes that there Is no public demand for a Convention, and we are ot the opinion that the formers of this State are not going to do so foolish a thing as the ordering of a Convention would be. But whether they order it or not tney will express their own opinion, and will not to go to the polls like parrots. We believe the people of Abbeville are disposed to do a little of tneir own thinking on the Irby Convention and we believe with exception of those who most, as a matter of course, do their master's bidding, that a large majority will express the!' disapproval ol not only the costly convention, but of the method whlcb has been adopted by tbe polv Itldans to secare it. Tbe people of Abbeville have been enthusiastic Tillman men, and have steadily voted for the men and measures which met their approval, and will continue to do so. but they are .now, and have always been Jealous of tbelr personal rights. When the excitement ran highest, and when reason seemed dethroned, they never forgot their personal liberty. When it was attempted to tell tbem what they most read, tbey manfully and indignantly resented the effort to usurp their, right, and we believe tbey will resent any unfoir effort to secure the Irby Convention. Now, when reason has been enthroned, and wheu Mr. Irby has not given a single reason for calling bis Convention, we bardly think be wiHUnd a majority of the liberty-loving free white men of Abbeville county either willing io ao nis oiaaiag, or wuuogiotiaaonH! methods which will no doubt seem to tbe more i Intelligent citizen as reprehensible. Any attempt on tbe part or partisan officers to Interfere with tbe ballot ought to be, and will be, resented. ? Will the People Vote tor Irby'a ConTsatlon T Heretofore, vton tbe will of tbe people was reepected^jUd when measures fortbe public welfrre were wged, they stood together firmly aug fjlrhillcally. They carried every thing before them. Tbey elected tbelr own men-to tbe Legislature. Tbe Legislature enacted wholesome and beneflclal laws. New Judges sit on tbe Bench, and Reformers till all tbe o(9cers. All ibese things were gained because of tbe zeal *SA patriotism of the people. But now, wbes tbe people are to vote on a Constitutional Convention, tbe leaders distrust tbe merits of the Irby Convention, and Hear tbe people. Desperate and frantic efforts aro made to solidify tbe people on the worse than doubtful Convention scheme, and the requisite number of tiokets are not furnished to secure a Hair vote. The Tillman men have stood together on principle. Will tbey now be ordered to stand together In support of a costly and ruinous measure, for which there is no need. Tbe Money <|aeatlon. Many persons seem to believe tbat it is tbe scarcity of money tbat affects the price ol cotton. This eannot be so. The prlgp of money, like the price of cotton Is regulated by tbe supply and demand. If cotton is obeap, other things are cheap. Money itself liakann as 1n AVlflPTirari hv f h A inlnniH rsla .of Interest. Twenty years ago tbe State Of Sooth Carolina paid seven per oent. on her bond*. Twenty years ago money commanded twelve or fllteen percent. Now tbe State bondB bear four and a balf per oent. Interest. Private individuals can borrow money at from seven to ten per cent. Town bonds on tbe various cities and towns of tbe State are floated at from five to seven per oent. Tbe seven per cent, bonds of Abbeville are cow above par, with plenty of woald-be buyers and no sellers. Shameless Partisanship. Colombia Evening Journal. ? If tbe constitutional convention is defeated it will because tbose wbo assume to be its sponsors resort to methods and make appealB wbiob self-respecting people are forced to resent Tbe movement for an improved constitution is per Be one for progress but tbe Tillmanite statesmen of the Irby order would degrade it to a plane of shameless partisanship and prejudloe. ? ? W. P. Veronee Is now prepared to send a first-class machinist to any part of the coun- 1 try to do any kind of machinery work. 4t l White Brothers offer berglns In dry goods J ready made clothing, men and boys bats, carpets and rugs, blankets and flannels. E. M. Hadodn St Co, have nearly doubled their shoe stock. . Looks IJke Peace. Tbe element which has heretofore given signs of resistance to the laws and constituted authorities of this State seem to be yielding, and It begins to look llfce peace would be restored to this people. Tbe authorities of various towns which heretofore refused to obedience to tbe dispensary law are now giving assurance that the law will be enforced in their respective municipalities. The Supreme Court of the State has maintained tbe constitutionality of the law in every particular. The Governor, while enforcing the law with more vigor than ever, is doing so with as little friction as is consistent wltb duty. The people everywhere have seen tbe whole some oenenia 10 oe aenvea irom me law, ana public sentiment now, more than ever, sustains tbe law. The opponents of Tillman are beginning to realize the fact It Is useless to resist tbe law wbloh Is backed by popular sentiment and which Is enforced by a determined Executive officer. The lawless element, when not sustained by public sentiment, must sooner or later, yield obedience to tbe peace officers. While every man, who 1b considerate of his fellow-man, must sympathise with tbe deal era In liquor who have lost money and business profits because of tbe change Id the whiskey law of the State, yet the public morals demanded tbe change; and the public welfare must take precedence. Be it said to their credit, however, tbat, as a rule, no class of antl-Tillmanltes have yielded more obedience to tbe law than tbey have. In Abbeville, for instance, the dealers have acted honorably, and have given obedience to tbe law which tbey despiBed.and have recognized the authority of the Governor for whom they had no love. With few exceptions, the law in this county, from the first, has had tbe support of the temperance people, who really desired to see the traffic In liquor curtailed. Tbe blindest hater of Tillman, and the most ardent problbltlonlBt cannot fall to see tbe benefiolal effects of the change from the saloon to the dispensary system. We have prohibition for fourteen hours every aay. The dispensary is never opened on Sunday. Tbe habit of treating baa been abolished. Drunkenness baa been diminished, and the recruiting station for the array of drunkards has been closed. While nobody la foolish enough to believe that the great army of drunkards can be made temperate and sober, yet wellmeaning people rejoloe In the fact that temptation to the drink habit and drunkenness, in a large measure, has been removed. When the drunkards of to-day shall have passed away, the number of drunkards and men who squander their substance for drink will be greatly reduced. With the doing away of the bablt of treating the cultivation of the taste for liquor will cease. When the people become more educated in temperanoe, the dispensary sales of liquor will be fhrther discouraged. The price will be Increased. The hours for keeping the es- , tablisbment open will be reduced, and such other safe-guards as may be deemed necessary will be throws around the public morals.

J A western fever has broken out, at and around Barnes' Station. There are said to be, about one hundred who have bad it bad. fi Several Railroad Magnates from Atlanta and ( other points, met about forty of the above . mentioned afflicted ones, and held a oonfer- 1 ence to see if cheap transportation rates to e the West, oould be agreed upon. From what ( I can learn no definite arrangements were effected, this by no means cured the disease. Oar High School Trusatees have secured the t services of Prof. T.' O.

NINETY-SIX, -e All About the Visitors and People of the Old Fort. Ninety-Six, 8. C? Oct. 8.1894. One of our largest and most prominent farmers came to town last Saturday and left for borne In the evening leaving bis borae bitched to the rack. Mr. J. D. Beacbam, one of Greenwood's most enterprising citizens is in town. Our public schools will begin on the first Monday in November. Postmaster Moore, of Greenwood, was down last Friday on business. Judge Townsend has decided that when teachers are paid supplemental funds for teaching, tbey are not entitled to the public money, in faot that tbey are not free schools. This Is a very Important decision, If a correct one. Mr. Will StlU, a handsome young widower, may be seen clerking for bis brother, A. W. Still, on all busy days. Last Saturday was notably the dullest day at Ninety-Six for several moDtbs. Miss Louise and Mlsa Archie Bozeman have 1 returned from a long visit to Walnalla and other mountain resorts. ( Mr. J. D. Coleman and family were here last week. I Mr. John Utsey and family have moved to Saluea. Mr. Utsey will have charge of the depot and telegraph offices. Messrs. George M. Anderson and J. T. Bozeman are adding to their already large and capacious livery and sale stable and will soon have it tilled with fine horses and mules. Mr. E. M. Osborne and wife have moved to town and have taken rooms at Mrs. John- ' son's. Mrs. Stanley, of Columbia, is here staying with her daughter, Mrs. Dr. Holland. 1 Our farmers are complaining of the short yield of cotton aB well as the snort price. Mr. J.ti. Brooks, Jr., ot Edgefield, was in town last Saturday. Until recently be bas been Supervisor on the C., C. & A. R. R. East End. The Walter L. Main show Is one of the best I travelling. It is clean and moral. Has no ( raking or games of ohance, and is deserving liberal patronage. At Cleveland, Ashtabula and Fainsvllle it was greeted with monitor ceowds, being forced to turn people away U Cleveland.?Dally Beacon, Ashtabula, O. Abbeville, S. C., Wednesday, Oct, aim. Convicted of Harder. Jack Bladon, white, one of the whiskey constables Id Spartanburg, shot and killed Henry Palmer, negro, several months ago. The evidence was that the negro was running when be was shot through the bead. Judge Frazer charged the Jury that the offense with which Palmer was charged at the time Bladon went to a treat blm was a misdemeanor; that Bladon bad a right to use any force sufficient to overcome such resistance as might be oflered by Palmer, but that If Bladon shot Palmer while the latter was seeking I to escape by flight, he was guilty of murder or manslaughter according as the shot was tired with deliberate intent to kill or in a sudden beat and passion generated In the conflict. The Jury retired to their room at 6 o'clock and at 11.15 returned a verdict of guilty, with recommendation to mercy. The Press and Banner believes that It Is a little out of the usual course to convict anybody for shooting a negro In the back. The stranger part, however, Is that Biadon was a constable. But he was not a plain every day constable. He was a whiskey constable. Whiskey constables must learn to be careful. It was the first appearance of the Walter L' Main's Grandest and Best Shows, and they were fully gnrnd In every particular. The performance was equal if not better than any circus tbat bas ever been bere, the Barnum Sbow not excepted.?The Chief, Sandusky! Ohio, June 1. Abbeville, Wednesday, Oct. 31st. _________ ? 01 UIU!
