Turning Up Their Xose*.
Senator McLaurln's opponents seem to be t
greatly exercised because of his political i
standards, and because he has received evidence
of substantial suppurt. Whenever a |
new supporter of McLaurln Is announced j
the}' forthwith begin to try to prove tbat be
isn't much account anyway. <
Even a man like Gen. M. C. Butler comes In |
for his share of Ill-humored criticism. i
The merchants, the manufacturers, and the |
business men who support McLaurln are i
sneered at very much as the monied arlstoc- (
raoy regarded them before the war. "Shop- i
people" were good enough In their way, and
tbey were sometimes tolerated, but they were
Beldom embraced In society by the select set.
It may be that some of our newspapers ,
hold themselves to be better, and superior to, i
the merchants, the manufacturers and the ;
business men of the country. But we leave i
i? tn tho nenni# tn Rftv if there are not Individ
uals Id these classes that have done more to
build up the State tban the combined efforts
of all the newspapers.
One noticeable strain that runs through all,
or nearly all, of the attacks on AlcLaurin, Is, i
that the authors seem to assume that they i
themselves are the very salt of the earth, and (
that the other fellows have lost their savor. f
Another presumption lies in the fact that a
great many of McLaurln's enemies pretend to
be able to give him friendly advice. Of
course, the public has no 6ort of respect for
such sniveling hypocrisy.
McLaurln 1b not generally regarded aB a fool j
and we shall be surprised if he does what his
enemies want him to do.
The pretended blindness to the fact that
McLaurln has a strong backing or support is
refreshing. His enemies seem to think that <
he is the cause of the disaffection from the PopQllstic
wing of the Democratic party, for- j
getting that their own recent lmpolltlo meth- I
ods in forcing a large minority of their fellows j
to wear a collar that didn't fit, is the cause 01 i
the present division.
As a rule the newspapers which assail Mc- ,
Laurln have not heretofore often been
on the winning side. Their persecu- (
tlon of MoLau^in and the persistent mlsrep- J
resentatlon of him In reference to the organi- i
zatlon of a Republican parly will react. In
the final accounting malicious misrepresents- ,
tlon of well kDown facts, will be set down in t
the right column. j
?
McLanrin'N Mistake.
The offer of McLaurln to make General
Hampton postmaster at Columbia was a
mistake, but happily for the Senator, the
General declined the offer.
To pension General Hampton by giving
him an offloe, which be Is physically unable
to fill, would have reacted against McLaurln.
As we understand, the Hampton element are
fighting McLaurln in all parta of the State,
and the great mass of the people who are supporting
McLaurln are doing so because they
believe be is making a step forward?not
backward.
Senator McLaurln need not seek to placate
the followers of General Hampton. He cau't
do that, and they will fight against bis advanced
Ideas. The Senator will be supported
by the business men, the manufacturers, the
merchants, and a great number ol
farmers, while the political voclferators of
out of date ideas will work against him, and
Ha ramnont nf thfl nnllfirml hfirtfcrfl nf twentv
years ago, who still survive, will, as a rale, j
support any opponent of McLaurJn, or any
other candidate 'who looks torward instead
of baokward. Young men, independent t
thinkers, and courageous actors will align &
themselves with AIcI<aurin. We expect these g
facts to be so plain that even the good old 1
News and Courier may Borne day find out t
thatthe revolution bas behind it a respecta- v
bJe contingent which cannot be blufl'ed. The I
News and Courier may be a little oonserva- J
tive, but we have an abiding faith In the ultimate
opening of its eyes.
Tillman, like Hampton, has tired a number
of citizens, and Tillman will live to see his
bated colleague triumphantly re-elected to
?V:v the Senate. 1
H ???
The Greenville News.
In the Greenville News appeared last week
an editorial scoring the News and Courier, t
and, sometimes, we regret that our c
interesting contemporary was a little bit ill- *
humored. The argument was all right, J
nnlohhnr* hut If vou don't mind belne '
spoken to by a little country editor, we suggest
that good humor and forceful argument
are more effective than anything else. The
man who Is conscious of being In the rlgbt
can always afford to be courteous. Its the
other fellow that betrays his sense of weakness
or deleat by getting vexed. You know
we are on the right side of the McLaurin
question and we can afford to be good
humored.
If our Mountain City neighbor will bear
with us a little more, we would suggest that
It be especially courteous to the News and
Courier because of the great good it is doing
McLanrln. You see McLaurin secured the
government exhiMt after Charleston's chosen
friends had failed, and people in all parts of
the State, aa well as In Charleston, feel that to
McLaurin some credit is due. And then they
do not quite understand why the metropolis
should accept his favors and then abuse blm.
w nen me ->ew? aau v. ourier bcciiid uoiiviuus i
of McLaurln's friendship, and then proceeds
to criticise unkindly tne Senator, his j
frlendawlll stick the closer to him. I
"The News and Courier Will Elect i
McLnnrln."
These words we have beard more than once
on our streets. Of course the Press and Ban- j
ner does not know how a large per cent, ol i
our fellow-citizens will vote in the fight on i
McLaurln. It may be tbat many voters do '
not themselves know, how they will vote, i
but we do know that up to this time we have
heard of no man in this County who had j
made up his mind to vote with the enemies j
of McLaurln. He would not, of course, get 1
the whole vote, but we are speaking of what j
we have beard. Among the names of those
who have expressed themselves as friendly
to McLaurln could be mentioned some
most excellent citizens in this County wbo <
were at one time so intensely Tillmanlte .
that they would not allow an anti-Tillman j
paper in their houses. j
Having worn Tillman's and Bryan's collars
for a long time they are probably In no con"
dltion to be dictated to by Mr. Tillman. *
Neither are they ready to be driven by the
old orowd that have been at enmity wltb
tbem since the downfall of Hampton, and
ineaaveni 01 rmmanisuj.

?
The Dlirereuce.
Id the years that are gone Mr. Tillman, if |
we are not mistaken, was very severe In his (
denunciation of Hampton for his proposed |
Interference at Aiken in the Congressional ]
race.
Now, those who take Senator AlcLaurin for ?
a fool, desire him to let Tillman put in bis j
lip against him In Joint discussion.
Tillman will find that his gratuitous inter- {
meddling in the race that doesn't concern
him will be a very unprofitable business,
even u It was to Hampton. i
' '
KcvoIntioiiN.
Periodically this State seemsto bo swept by
political waves.
In 1876 Hampton led a revolution. In 1S7S
Hitman started a movement which resulted
n the overthrow of the Hampton rule In 1890.
Sow McljRurln is at the head of a revolution
which promises to sweep the tstate. This,
jf course, is extremely distasteful to (he old
Hampton crowd, who may have thought that
with the passlngof Tillman, their time for
return to the public crib was at hand. But
revolution*) do not tio backward, Those who
may be seeking to bring the Democratic parly
back to the Hampton moorings will be disippointed.
The old political party is about
Lo take another step in the Hue of progress,
ind it will be governed by new men and new
issues.
Hampton is now out, and neither he nor
liis faction, cau ever hope to rule this State
again, as it did after 1S70.
It Is perfectly certain that Tillman's star is
an the wane. He, like Hampton, has had
his day of usefulness, and each has had his
term of power. lu turn the word oi each was
law. Their careers, in some respects, were
not dissimilar. Each In turn ruled the State
and directed the thoughts of the people who
aeugtueu 10 nouor lueui,
The treatment that has been accorded to
McLaurln point him out as the coming man.
His enemies, more than his friends, huve
doue this. And his enemies have given us a
eample of the methods which they propose to
ndopt. Theirs seem to be the same old orthodox
Hamptonlan plan of Intolerance which
brought such great success to Tillman.
Improving.
If we are not In error General Hampton remained
In the service of the McKlnley administration
until removed. The General
occupies higher ground now. He wouldn't
icoept anything from Washington.
ROAD IMPROVEMENT.
Prospects for ? Good Kond to Verdery
to take the Place of the Almost
Impassable Dendy's Bridge
Route.
The Press and Banner is delighted to note
Ihe prospect of an improved crossing of Long
2ane at JDendy Bridge on the road to Verdery.
rhe Norrls Creek crossing is to be remedied
oo, the Dendy's bridge across Long Cane will
probably be abandoned for a sensible and
easonable route across on a high bridge over
Long Cane. The contemplated changes It is
:hought. will not only give a good road to
ake the place of the worst road in Abbeville
Jounty, but It will shorten the distance possi}|y
balf a mile.
For thirty years tbe trade beyond Long
Jane has been practically cut off from Aobepllle
because of tbe streams, but our people
rill be glad to bear of tbe prospect of a belter
oad and better crossings.
County Supervisor Nichols, we learn, Is glvng
the proposed work bis best attention, and
re are also glad to learn that bis associate on
be Board, Mr. Richard Sondley Is alive to tbe
lecesslty for the needed road improvement.
iVlth these gentlemen actively at work on a
icbeme for the betterment of tbe Interests of
he County, as well as of the people oftbeClty,
ve feel sure that the nuisance which has Inured
the town for thirty years will be renoved.
When tbe new road and tbe new
>rldge is built Abbeville will owe the ofDcers
>rofound gratitude.
Owing to the fact that the crossing at
Morris Creek is so bad?being about shoe
nouth deep In water for perhaps fifty yardslumbers
of people commit trespass in going
nto a neighboring pasture, where logs and
ind rafts are thrown Into the stream so that
>edestrlans may cross dry shod. Tbe nulsince
to the adjoining pasture is so great in
>reaklng fences, and throwing logs in the
:reek. that tbe owner will be compelled to
tbandon tbe laud, or else prosecute offenders
or trespass. To abandon tbe pasture will
ncur considerable loss. To be put to the necessity
of bunting trespassers and punishing
hem is Unpleasant. For thlrty-tlve years
>art of tbe laud thereabout bad beeu abanioned,
and bad become to be regarded as a
>ubllc park, and with no proper crossing at
he big road, trespassers have presumed ou
hat faot for going upon forbidden grouud.

many visible results.
There is a plan under way of uniting Old
