S&v Wtv ' ~ ? I Tiie .press ana Banner. BY HUGH WILSON. ? ABBEVILLE, S. C. * ^ Published every Wednesday at ?! a b year Id advance. p Wednesday, May 29,1901. ? .... a Tlie (ialFney Mrcliug. l( Senator McLaurlu had been Invited to speak at Uaffney last Saturday, and, as will be seen by the account of that meeting, Senator Tillmau managed to get himself Invited, too; and upon that Invitation he thrust bis presence upon the meeting, it was none of his business to be there. The people ^ of South Carolina are abundantly able to take care of themselves, and his lntcrmed- j dling In a campaign in which he was not coa- ^ cerned was little less than an attempt to act the role of dictator. The revolution is on, and no effort of the dictator can stop it. This revolution Is not of it McLaurin's origin, but tne ining uus eaioicu /or a lime In the hearts of the people, waitiug ^ for a leader and spokesman. McLaurin touched the popular heart by his able and statesmanlike presentation of his v political views, and the people will support a leader who will tight along the line which McLaurin has mapped out. This newspaper has confidence that the campaign which McLaurin has started, will g end in success. t His vote on the treaty of peace has given t offence to nobody, as far as we have heard. I But whether approved or not, expansion Is $ fc ' a settled faot. It Is no longer a question. o His views on subsidy are not unpopular In ji the South. "Subsidy" Is not Democratic tl doctrine. Neither is a Republican doctrine. 3 It is a universal doctrine, tt Is universal, because people of all shades of political and s economic belief lavor It, when it is for the t' ire: public good. d We subsidize railroads. Did not the town v of Abbeville give money for the establish- s men t of the Seaboard Air Line Shops? Did p not the State of South Carolina subsidize the Big Indian Show at Charleston, by giving it 850,000? Did not the same show aBk Congress for a quarter of a million dollars ? Did not Tillman favor that subsidy ? n There Is no doubt about It, the old populls. t tlo planks of the Democratic party must be t removed. C The Democratic party cannot expect to t gain national success as long as it is a local ^ party, with one set of principles for the y South, another set for the West, and with none at all for the North. frV Tillman and 9Icl<aarln. . The Idea that Tillman had resigned much t< In yielding up his six year commission pre- q vails. It Is true that Tillman threw away a e great deal. But did not McLaurin throw s away more? He has, it is true, a 6borter l term to serve, but be has tbe ear of the p authorities at Washington, and could, In a q measure, dispense tbe Government patronage. He Is at tbe head of a revolution^ which Is as certain to win sooner or later in South Carolina, as it Is possible to foresee any event. McLanrin's position as a politician was im- I pregnable. Hla speeches were statesmanlike, and .even Tillman has not tried to answer them, while the lesser lights, who have tried - ? ? 1A/ iVinm hauo ATI J r tl U) uuBwer ? uavbiuu ui iucui, ???v VMV pj shown that McLaurin was right. d Tillman Is a strong man, but he is not a % logical reasoner. He has never made a 11 speech which would compare with u those of McLaurin, and the bent ol tl ^ bis mind is such that be cannot sue- ^ cessfully engage in a respectful and courteous debate with any man of McLaurin's ability i In such a debate he could not meet McLaurin. * He couldn't reply to McLaurin's speeches to p! save bis llle. But as a shrewd politician, H bulldozer or bully, McLaurin Is no nearer a ^ match for Tillman, than Tillman would be n for blm in a respectful and intellectual debate w on any national question. No man need deny the ability aDd states' tl manshlp of McLaurin's speeches. And no " man need deny that he has a strong following t) In South Carolina. It need not be questioned c that bis politics will sooner or later prevail In this Stale. They are Democratic. e! Tillman must have realized that his day ol bullying and dictating to the voters of South 'l Carolina was passing. If this were not true, a why did he thrust himself upon a McLaurin v meetlDg. at which he must have had no buslness, except to create a disturbance ? Tillman Ik a strong man, where coarseness, el rudeness and the arts of the bully may pre- g vail, but he is no match for McLaurin in an ^ Intellectual combat, where the proprieties are g( observed, and where appeal to reason is " made. Cl Tillman has on record no speech to com" c< pare in ability and convincing logic with McLaurin's speeches at Charlotte and Greenvllle, and he has furnished no proof that he tt has the ability to oonduct a controversary or argument without recourse to passion and ei the making of ugly charges. ^ ? ? b< tt Boycott and Strike. hi We learn that a petition has been presented to some of our business men, asking them not to ship freight over the Seaboard Air Line as long as the strike at the shops was on, or J words- to that effect. ' Our citizens have no concern with the dlf- 3 ferences between the officers of the road and J the gentlemen who lately threw up their Jobs, and It Is fair to presume that a majority of our business men will not take part In this fight. We have authority of an old book, which Is revered by at least a portion of our people, that he who "meddleth with strife DcICDglUg UUb IU UILU, 10 UHC UUC lUttt INHCIU a dog by thenars." The officers of the road, and the gentlemen who quit their Jobs are iully competent to take care of themselves, and It is possible that our people cannot af- si ford to become involved In a trouble whloh et does not concern them. Abbeville paid the J road 815,000 to secure the location of Its shops, ei and it would seem unnatural now for the town to engage In a fight against the road*. D Our people have nothing but the kindest p feeling for the gentlemen who have felt so ng- |l grieved that they must quit their Jobs. For these reasons we presume that our people cs will not take part in the struggle. J* Their former expenditure of money, and tt their present personal good feeling for the h gentlemen who are at variance with the road would prevent their Interference. May the right win. The Senntorlal Rettlicnntlou. The tender of their resignation by Senators Tillman and McLaurln struck this commun j lty amid ship. And as far as we have heard expression there is general disgust at the action of both Senators. A number h have expressed the hope that both ol them G may oe aeieaiea ior reelection. i ney seem Q tojtblnk that the Senators are trifling with ti the people, and lightly throwing down the e. honors which have been conferred upon * them. n Both Senators are alike censured, and the D wish has been expressed that the State might ? be rid of both, and that they might be excus g ed from further public service Just now. A. more looll6b, or a more In politic act than ^ %' v that of the Senators at Gaffney would be hard to conceive, and impossible of performance. The most compleete line of brushes to be r found in town Is at The Speed Drug Co. Tooth brushes, nail brushes, balr brushes, clothes g| brushes, whist bruBhes, In fact any kind of a i, brush you want. The Speed Drug Co. n I; ll&v - ..... .-.r L - Which Had the Advantage ? The resignation of the Senators Is the talk f the State, and the sentiment seerus to he mch the same every where?one of condetn* atiou of their act, and hope that the necesItv lor a primary this summer may be voided. It is hoped by many that Governor Moweeny may not accept their resignations, ut If he does do so, that new men may be apointed to both places and thus relieve the itate of the trouble and vexation Incident to useless and uncalled-for primary. Both enators have trifled with their commissions, nd there Is a sentiment that It would be well f the State could be relieved for a time at mist of both disturbing factors. For Sciiiilor, In looking over the State for a suitable men j fill oue of the vacancies which may posiably occur in the United States Seuate we ould ask the attention of the people to the iierits, the ability and the availability of the Ion. W. C. Benet. We can now recall the ameof no man who is better qualified for he position. His education and his bent ol aind eminently qualify mm ioraseai in iue 'nited Slates Senate. In point of ability be i Inferior to no man. In argument he is resecttul and forceful. As a diplomat, be ?ou!d be prepared to secure from Washingon as much for bis people, as any man that ?e could seud to tbe Senate. The Expense. The State makes a good point, when It sugests that Tillman and McLautin should pay he expense of the primary election, which beir foolishness has unnecessarily incurred, 'hat paper estimates the cost o( a primary at 10,000. It is bad enough to have the people f the State disturbed, but It is entirely unist to levy a tax of 810,000 on them to gratify be whim or caprice of tbe distinguished enators. In speaking of the matter on tbe street tbe uggestlon was made, that if the people had 9 pay tbe expense, both Senators should be A KKattI 1 In'c ohftr\4 tho 41^ (Wl Ol^aiCUt AVI/UTIKC D DUHIW VI |V?? rould be S250?and it can't be raised here for o unjust a purpose aa that of an uncalledfor rlmary. Cblckainauifa Monument. South Carolina's monument in Chickaaauga Park was unveiled last Monday in be presence of a great number of veterans of be war wblcb made tbat park historic. Ihickamauga Is tbe only park belonging to be United States whicb was dedicated to Lmerican valor, irrespective of tbe sides on rhlcb the armies contended. Porto Rico. The United States Supreme Court, by five d four, decided that Porto Rico is not foreign arrltory, but sustains the law which reuires the collection of duty on Imports and xports between tbat island and the United tates. Tbe decision Is to tbe effect tbat tbe Fnited States may own territory to the peole of which constitutional rights are wltheld until specifically conferred by Congress# THE GRADED SCHOOL. 'be School Term Is Ended?Tencherfl, Children and People are H?ppy? Good Educational Institution. Last Friday morning the closing exercises of oe Graded School were held in the Court Louse. A great number of our citizens wltessed the exercises, and there were present s many pretty young ladles, In their gay aire, as we ever expect to soe at one time. Tbe scholars gave evidence of excellent alnlng, and their proficiency is the best tesmonial to their own Industry and attention > the various studies in which they excell1. A good school Is a blessing to any com lunlty, and success of tbe scholars Is always source of pleasure to all. The teachers are ratified, tbescholars are delighted, and tbe arents are proud. Tbls is as It should be. ' it were not so tbe teachers would have less jcentlve to labor, tbe children would be less tnbltlous to win, and the parents would ave little inducement to make the sacrifice hlcb the sending of children to schooi ulIways entails. Tbe bright faces of tbe children indicated aat they were glad ol tbe vacation, and we ave no doubt t bat the teachers, one and all, fere glad to have a rest. Tbey have worked ard, and they deserve a rest. And those blldren, who by their studies, have been a redlt and a pleasure to their parents, have one honor to themselves and to their teacbrs. Faithful and efficient teachers make faithtl and studious, scholars, faithful and stulous scholars become good and great In the Hairs of this world. A school like the Abbellle Graded School is one of the most impor int Institutions in tbe city. It touches the ?ntlmeutR, tbe feelings and tbe Interests of le people In more places than does anything se. and in no organization are the people anerally so nnlted for the puplic welfare, very eve and everv heart Is turned to It. fe all love a good school, aDd we all love >od teaobers wbo teucb our little men and ttle women to be good and great. But the doors of our school bouse are now osed for tbe vacation. The teachers bave sased from tbeir labors. Tbe children have ild asldethelr books. Teachers and children Ike deserve tbelr well earned rest, and It is oped that all may be happy and healthy iroogh tbe summer and that when tbe jptember days shall bave come, they may all iter upon another year's work with renewed lergy. During the Summer we will see on our reets fewer pretty little ladles In their sun >unetB, and tbe bales of books, wbicb le boys cairy, will disappear during the ot months.
