Ih Wilie JoncM n Party to Thin?
It is evident that Tillman Is badly scared
as to the political future. Instead of meeting
the people face to face and showing the justice
of his contention, does he prefere, with
closed doors and in secret session to make tbe
Democratic State Executive Committee a tool
to accomplish by trick that which he may be
unable to do by appeals to the common sense
of the people.
The effort to take an undue advantage of
MolAurin is a small matter. It is of very little
concern whether he Is in the race or not.
The wrong which is intended primarily
against him Is really an injustice to the great
mass of the people. Any interference with
the freedom of speech, and any effort to prevent
tbe people from a full expression o!
their wishes at the ballot is bosslsm. pure and
simple. As the leader of a great movement
ten years ago, Mr. Tillman was a hero. Now,
as a schemer, in trying to hoodwink the people,
by depriving them of their rights, he
assumes the role of a boss.
When Mr. Tillman started out on his crusade
he was a farmer, wishing only to-secure
the rights of the people. He sucoeeded to a
wonderful degree and became a hero?the
Idol of the great mass of the people?whose
word was law with them.
But a period often years in the highest offices
within the gilt of the people, and his absolute
ownership, or guardianship of their
rights, seemed to have turned bis bead, and
It would appear, wben his power is waning
that be would hold by strategy that which he
cannot maintain In an open and frank appeal
to the people.
In this la6t movement of Mr. Tillman
against the rights and liberties of the people,
be seems to have disregarded a number ol
bis old and staunch friends by assembling
around blm a new lot of followers, who might
assist him in his sleight of hand performance
behind closed doors.
In the following dispatch, which was sen!
out from Columbia, it will be noticed tbat It
Is sought to associate Col. Wllie Jones wilb
tbe triok. Mr. Tillman recognizes tbe respectability
and tbe esteem In wblob tbe
cbalruian of tbe committee Is beld by tbe
people. If, therefore, Mr. Tillman and bis associates,
could seoure tbe co-operation of
( such a man as Col. Jones, tbey would have
gained a strong point In tbelr favor. But Col.
Jones bas a good reputation. He Is popular
wltb tbe people. HIb oonnlvance at Mr. Tillman's
plans against tbeir rights and liberties
is something tbat a gentleman of Colonel
Jones's standing could not afford. Col.
JoneB Is a deservedly popular man. He has
kept himself aloof from tbe dark lantern
methods of the politician, and be could not
Join a nefarious schema against tne rights of
tbe people, without compromising his own
, self respect and forfeiting tbe good will of
those who have so Justly honored him.
Columbia, June 17.?Senator Tillman's
friends think be bas quietly fixed tbe cards
for Senator McLaurln to draw a blank next
summer without even haying a chance to
win.
Instead of rnling McLaurln out of the party,
a method that would raise a rumpus In
the state, and might cause serious trouble
tbe Junior senator Is to be made to rule himself
out.
Tillman was opposed to the executive committee
ruling out McLaurln, on the ground
that It would give blm an advantage before
tbe people.
He oould declare himself a democrat and
nay Tillman was afraid to allow the people
bear him; afraid to allow them to be tbe
Judge. It has therefore, been planned to let
the oonvention, tbat meets next May to organize
party machinery, make a new prlmary
that can be taken by all candidates except
McLaurln. Tbla oatb, heretofore, bas been
designed to cover tbe stale matters only, tbe
candidate pledging himself to abide tbe result
of a primary and support the new ones.
For MoLaurin's benefit it will be amended so
as to pledge tbe support of the national demrvrot
S n nlof fnrm In all 11 a nlan Lra ontr nniDlcHcr.
lng tbe platform us tbe mouthpiece of tbe
party and pledging: j?1bo to abide by tbe caucus
votes.
McLaurln havicg declared so strongly
against both tbese, Tillman supporters declare
be oannot take tbe oatb, and unless be
does be cannot participate in tbe primary or
be voted for except at a general election. Tbe
plan leaked out after Senator Tillman and
Colonel WUle Jones, Chairman of tbe state
executive committee, spent a couple of day6
together.
MoLaurln's course, under tbese circumstances,
bas not yet been defined, but It is already
taken by bis friends as evident tbat tbe organization
is afraid of MoLaurln's strength.
Governor M.B.McSweeney was asked today
whether be indorsed this scheme of ruling
out McLaurln. He would not commit himself,
saying tbat be was not a member of tbe
commltee and did not care to get tangled up
In tbe matter. He would say, bowever, that '
unless a man would standby tbe platform
and be governed by a caucus, be could not
claim to be In tbe party.
State Chairman Jones said he did not think
tbe present executive commltee would take
any action about McLaurln. Tbe conven
uon ana new oommltee will be Id control
long before the campaign is opened for next
year.
"Nothing will be done now," he Raid, "unless
AlcLaurln goes to cutting up too much Id
the state tills summer. Then any five members
of the committee can have It called together
and take what action they may see
lit."
Has the Honest Farmer of Ten Yearn
Ago. Turned Political Trickster T
"Senator Tillman's friends think be has
quietly fixed the cards for Senator McLaurln
to draw a blank next summer, without even
having a chance to win."
If yoo can, think of General Hampton, or
any other of South Carolina's honored leaders
making expression like that.
The-trlck is not so mnch against McLaurln
as it is an effort to cheat the people of their
right at the ballot box.
Senator Tillman, as the farmer who had no
desire for office, was Indeed a hero. He
talked to the people face to faoe, bfit since he
has had offloe, he seems to have changed his
tactics. Wire-pulling, bosslsm, secret sessions
of the Democratic committee, and JobB
on the people, were some of the cries of honest
Ben Tillman, but Senator Tillman is relying
upon tbe ability of quietly, or secretly, fixing
tbe cards so that the suffrage of tbe people
may be defeated.
The trick may possibly succeed, but we do
not believe It. The Exeoutive Committee
may try a boss Job on their confiding constituents,
but we do not believe they will willingly
Incur tbe contempt of all fair dealing
men.
<
Oversight.
Last week in noting some of the McLaurln
newspapers we Inadvertantly omitted several
worthy papers, and among them the Yorkville
Enquirer, which is king of all the papers 1
with which we are acquainted. It is nicely
printed. It is ably edited. It Is honest and
fair. The support of the Enquirer 1b a tower
of strength to any cause. Tbe mere fact that (
the Enquirer supports or approves a cause Is
enough to convince Its readers that there is
virtue in it. The Enquirer is one of tbe most 1
outspoken supporter of the real Democracy i
of the State. '
Tbe Cotton Mill.
Work on the addition to tbe cotton mill is I
searing completion. Tbe bouse was finished j
some time ago, ana many nation nave smct;
been busy placing tbe machines for service. <
Tbey are now about ready, and tbe new I
wheels will begin to tarn at once. Every- I
tbing Is reported as going smoothly, and men (
and machines fere going without Jar or interruption.
On tbe streets some transfers of
shares In tbe capital stock bave been made
lately, the lowest price that we bave beard
being SO cents. When the new machinery iB <
put in motion, and when the China trade is
well opened up, friends of the mill think tbe
tbe stock will go booming.

The greatest Southern statesman Is conceded
the country over to be John T. Morgan of
Alabama. It was this intellectual giant and
great exponent of Democratic principles who,
while making hit light In the United States
Senate for measures, regardless of wblcli
party Introduced them, brought down upon
nls head the bitterest of opposition. The
politicians raised the cry of treachery and the
newspapers joined the chase to hound Morgan
down, that through prejudice, abuse,
misrepresentation and vlllldcatlon they
could bring about bis downfall with the people.
Morgan remained at his post In Wash*
inijton without a word while the politicians
were enjoying their conspiracy against dim
unobstructed. When the primaries came ofl
Governor Johnson took the field against
Morgan and notwithstanding Johnson had
all 01 the court house officials together with
hundreds of appointees, and nearly all of the
newspapers to help him, and besides, for
months the people had their minds ailed with
charges of "Republicanism" against Morgan,
the result was that Johnson failed to carry a
single oounty in the State not excepting bis 1

the United States Senate a stroDger man with
the people than ever belore. Here la what he
saysabout John L.MoLaurln, with reference
to iheTlllinan-McLaurtn controversy:
"Both men are good Democrats. 1 have no
reason to doubt either man, and I consider
Senator McLaurin one of the ablest men in
the Senate. He Is young, he is modest; but i
he Is very able. I cannot think of one instance
where McLaurin has bad his Democracy
challenged. One may vote for or i
against subsidies?but all Democrats in the
Senate vote for a subsidy at one time or i
another and in one way or another?and still
be a true Democrat. I consider the man progressive
who faces each aud every public i
question as it comes up and tries to solve it
tor himself. Yet, we have our stereotyped ]
Democrats. There Is an opportunity to hon- <
or the man who, disagreeing with both the i
platform and the nominees of his party, does <
not step over into the ranks of the other I
party ; but prefers to let the Issue pass?takes :
to seclusion and waits; but does not desert
his party. I think there are many such j
Democrats in this country today, and we
shall not misjudge them. Therefore, no one
can say that this man is not a good Democrat,
or that man is not because be may vote for or
againRt some bill In the United States Senate,
or in the lower house which may appear to 1
Involve directly tne Democratic or Republl- ]
can principles.
"I voted for the treaty of Paris not because ,
Mr. Bryan was on band working for it; but '
because I thought it my duty ; J talked and i
argued against the ship subsidy bill because 1
thought it outrageous and an imposition;
but as I spoke against It the Cotton Growers' i
association of the south passed a resolution
favoring It. That shows there Is a diversity
of vlewson this question In the south as well
as in the north. I do not think that Senator
McLaurln's Democraoy can be safely chalIGD
"when I read this morning of the two
Senators, I thought It peculiar that two men
of experience such aa they are should deliberately
invite political suicide, and Just to
see who will be there first at the resurrection
rhe outcome may be different than either
^ne thinks. While they are struggling for

The avowed effort to control the Executive
Committee In behalf or Tillman and against
McLfiurlu seems to be the first act for ten
years which would seemingly have the tendency
to Impair public confidence In tbe party
officers. If these men who were elected or
chosen, to represent the interests of tbe
whole Democratic party would hold themselves
above suspicion, it seems that a man
like Wille Jones should correct any Imputation
that the State Democratic Committee
would give countenance to tbe ''fixing of
cards" fpr or sgainst anybody. They should
resent any effort to Induce them to assume
responsibility for disreputable or dishonest
tricks. The people ought to have confidence
in the honesty and integrity of the party officers.
Can this be maintained, if such talk
of "fixing cards" is to go unrebuked ? Should
tbe Committee give their ear to factional issues,
or should they act for tbe whole people?
No charge of corruption has ever been made
against any party officer, and we hope tbe
same high stands may continue.
Open and unblushing talk of "fixing cards1'
by trusted officers is something new In South
South Carolina politics.
-4 ?
It Mr. Tillman and Col. Jones could fix up
an affidavit requiring McLaurln to make oath
that bis grandmother never bad the measles,
they might very properly crowd tbe junior
Senator out of the race.
Does the proposed effort on the part of McLaurln's
enemies to rule him out of the race
deserve or merit the respect of a decent free
negro ?
?
Is there an honest man In South Carolina
who wants to take a sneaky advantage of
McLaurln ?
If so, let him submit his plan to the State
Democratlo Executive Commute, where the
effort will fail.

DESTRUCTIVE RAINS,
Great Private and Public Loss.
The rains last week did great damage to the
terming lands. In places gullies were cut aod
in other places the lop soil was carried away.
In addition to the Iocs incurred by landowners,
the County lost much In bridges. Supervisor
Nickles makes a very conservative e?timate
of the losses sustained by this County :
On Rocky RiverTruss
bridge from Antrevllle to Iva, built
last year, washed down stream a mile.
Trust* oriuge ai nam djui, icei luu^t
washed off the benches, and lodged In bottom,
near by.
New bridge at Price's mill, Id course of construction.
All piers were finished. One span
of 10S feet was finished, except cover and
weatherboarding. Not having been completed
one end of tbe span bad not been bolted
to the pier. Two of the piers were nearly
demolished. The span was washed down
stream about a hundred yards. Material to
finish tbe bridge was ou tbe ground, nearly
all of which was carried away. The rook
abuttmenis?32 feet on one side and 12 oo the
other side?were washed laway. This bridge
was being built by tbe Supervisor, and tbe
damage Is estimated at 8700.
Next below Price's mill Is tbe Iron bridge
at Iiowndesvllle. The approaches?280 feetwas
washed down stream irom 25 to SO yards.
Supervisor Nlckles thinks this bridge will be
ready for crossing by the middle of next
week.
At Young mill, the approaches were wrecked
and washed away. The truss was not
damaged.
Swearlngln's mill bridge, was damaged?
one span being washed away.
On Saluda River?
At bridge at Mattox mill, sixty feet of the
approaches on the Abbeville side were washed
away.
On Broadmoutb?
Tbe truss bridge was damaged. Tbe abultments
were washed out.
UQ rumey ^reea?
Two bridges were damaged.
Name of creek not knownBridge
at Cllnkacalea mill was damaged.
Several other creek and gulley bridges
were washed away.
Supervisor Nickles thinks that $.'$,000 may
cover the damages, but he Is not quite sure
that the damages may not exceed that sura.
