Bj*" t t The Press and Banner. BY HUSH WILSON. ABBEVILLE, S. O. -t^-Pnbllshed every Wednesday at 52 a year In advance. Wednesday, June 26, 1901. ; _ | _ The Kxecutive Committee. We do not agree with the position of the Charleston Post and the Columbia Record In reference to the statement of Col. Jones. The editorials In the State take substantially the same ground as the Post and Record, though expressed In a different way, and possibly lor a different purpose. The Press and Banner Is disposed to take the statement of Col. Jones at it* face value. We do not believe that Senator McLaurln will be ruled off the track next year however much a few Individuals may be disposed to do so. The Committee cannot afford to be partisan or unfair. Taking the Committee at Col. Jones's own estimate, they would have no desire to commit an act which the country would not and could not endorse. Tne Committee, among other reasons, may be depended upon not to lend themselves to any body's scheme: 1. The natural Impulse of good men Is to & be fair and honest. 2. In the general chapter of accidents, half ? the members of any Committee may be expected to be true to their trust. 3. Even If the Individual members of the Committee were prejudloed and disposed to crowd McLaurln to the wall, they could not afford to do an act that would Incur the dls pleasure auu UIIJU uunu ufiuu vuun unu beads tbe contempt of honest and Juet men in all parts of tbe State. 4. If the Committee should excommunicate McLaurln, they must, to be consistent, debar many others from the privileges or the Democratic party. 5. Every white man in South Carolina who claims to be a Democrat and supports the nominee of tbe party, Is practloally a Democrat. 0. The proposition to excommunicate McLaurln because be does not approve all tbe popullstlc planks ol tbe Kansas City platform is retroactive, and be cannot lawfully be punished lor doing or thinking a thing for which no legal penalty was provided at the time. 7. The Constitution of the State provides that no ex post facto law shall be passed. Of course tbe Constitution of tbe State may ??? onrnm (ha DamfvniMn nnrlv. In that case the Democracy may be above all law. II that body next year proposes to pass a law wblcb would make last year's act amenable to a law wblcb was not tben In existence, It oould do 60, with fatal political effect to tbe aclors. 8. Any Idea that tbe right wblcb was granted to negroes to vote on tbe conditions named Is not a precedent. It was a mere reward for fidelity, wblcb conferred upon tbem a privilege wblcb tbey did not possess before. Such right was oonferred as an bonor, or as a mark of distinction, and affords no precedent for an exouse or pretext tor excommunicating a life-long Democrat because be differs In opinion from others In tbe matter of forming apolitical platform. To deny freedom of thought and speech is-to assume the role of master or dictator. Demand for a Pure Democracy. "This paper believes tbe Democratic party In this State should amend tbe primary machinery that none but Democrats can participate. We see no reason why Republicans, anti-Bryan men. Prohibitionists, Jobnnyites. and a hundred other "ltes" should be allowed to mix up In a party primary and aid In affecting the decisions of that party to bind genuine Democrats."?Yorkvllle Yeoman. Tbe Yorkvllle Yeoman, in the above paragraph, solves the problem. There Is nothing like having a pure Democracy, in which there Bhonld be no division of sentiment. When everybody thinks alike tbe millennium will be In sight, and the way to bring the millennium 1h to get unity of sentiment and oneness of thought and interest. To secure the absolute purity of the Demooratlc party, some men In South Carolina might favor the *following specifications In the oath : SHOULD VOTE. All Democrats or Tltlmanltes can vote. ? SHOULD NOT VOTE. g. Those enumerated below not being Democrats, should not be allowed to vote In a Democratic primary: 1. Anti-Bryan men. 2. Prohibitionists. 3. Delegates to any factional Convention, especially a Prohibition Nominating Convention. 4. All men who accept nominations from a Prohibition Convention. 5. All men who bolted the party, and voted against Tillman, the regular Democratic nominee, and tried to elect Haskell with or without the negro vote. 6. All men who oppose the dispensary law. ifX . . .. 7. All men who nave, oontrary to tne law of the land, bougbt liquor, or who may be suspected of taking a drink, In a blind tiger. 8. All men wbo scratched Tillman's name off his ticket at tbe last election. 9. All men who favor, or endorse, McLaorln's national politics, or who express a determination to vote for him. 10. All men who ever favored subsidies to any railroad, factory, or other great enterprise?especially and particularly, those who favored the subsidy to Charleston's Big Indian Show. 11. All men who favor the retention of tbe Philippine islands. 12. All men wbo may assume to have a thought of tbelr own. If the country was raked with a hayrake and all the above classes were caught and put out of the way by Tillman's pitchfork, we could have?without question?a nnro riomAPronr Inolnrli no- Till m o n Wo would then have an Ideal Democracy, with none to disturb or make afraid. Ought to Specify. "The McLaurln organs are getting touchy about the words "buy" and "sell." We doubt not they have good reasons within themselves for so being."?Yorkvllle Yeoman. Any assertion that McLaurln has "organs," we believe, Is not true. The Insinuation about "buy" and "sell" Is made against brethren whose standing for Integrity and honesty 1b not Inferior to that of the Yeoman. The members of the press of thlB State, with all their faults, are honeBt. If the?Yeoman knows anything of "buy" and "sell" let It speak out. To make unfounded insinuations?insinuations which the Yeoman itself does not believe?is not up to the high standard which has characterized the conduct of that paper in the past. If the Yeoman would allow a suggestion, we would say that disrespectful treatment of those who differ from It, is no way to make converts or to command public respect. The Indian Show. Senator McLaurln Is still "doing about" In the Interests of Charleston's Big Indian Show. He don't care whether the News and ? Courier gives credit to Tillman or Latimer lor his work. The consciousness of doing bis whole duty for the State of South Carolina, and Charleston, too. Is enough for him. He iBn't working for empty honors to himself; he is alter the good of the good old city whose citizens took out letters patent on their trade marks a century or two ago, and who so loDg ago made great fortunes by their good busl ness methods. You Ju6t can't keep Charleston and ber working men down. It is a great old city of which we are all very proud, and the country people will honor MoLaurlu for hiB effort in behalf the big Indian Show. abi WE WILL SELL YO HA"V WE I We Have Cut the Pric Was Falsehood Intended? Tbe State a few days ago bad something to say of "McLaurln organs." We have no means or knowing to wtiom mat epunet was j applied, but in so far as it may have had reference, if any at all, or waB intended to inolude the Press and Banner, it was untrue. The Press aDd Banner would further assert rj that a newspaper which claims to be, or pretends to be, a leader of pubUo sentiment ] should be truthful. Public opinion demands 1 fair play, even if the speaker entertain particular contempt for bis less pretentious breth- I ren. And we would venture to predict, if a Jury of their countrymen were empanelled to t pass upon the comparative character of the State and the newspapers which support Mc- ' Laurln, that there is not one of the following | named newspapers which would have anything to lose. They no doubt stand as well at. j their own homes as does the State In the city , of Columbia. Ab far as we know, not odo of i the McLaurln papers In this State has ever , sold, bartered, bargained or otherwise made f a deal, directly or Indirectly, with any officer, i politician, or other person, for the rcodlflca- j tion, change, of his editorial expressions: Enquirer, Yorkvllle, Herald, Bamberg, Post, Charleston, . Lantern, Chester, j Times, Manning, Times, Georgetown, Chronicle, Honea Path. . News, Greenville, Index, Greenwood > Ledger, Lancaster, Dispatch, Lexington, . Observer, Newberry, Courier, Walhalla, .

Sumter, Times, Union, Herald, Rock Hill, J Goose Creek Water. j The Courts have decided that the Charleston ' oontract for goose water is unconstitutional, , and the city authorities are restrained from t going on with th? contract for that kind of ' water. There were two objections to the con- ^ tract: One was, that Goose Creek water was 1 not desirable for the good people of the city. J The Court, however, took very little notice e of this fact. The decision was based on the fact that Charleston's bonded indebtedness ^ was already eight per cent, of the constitutional limit. The contract to pay 942,000 for s ?

Klugb, an honored citizen of J Abbeville, held Conrt last week In the town of hie own home. And Abbeville Is proud of ^ him. He adorns the bench upon which many , ot South Carolina's best men have sat, and t bis ability, bis legal learning aud bis courte- 1 ous manner command the respect of all. Judge Klugb Is not a politician. He holds c bis place because of his eminent fitness for & the place, and because of his fidelity to duty. v Good Man Mlminic. for several wetmn our guuu uiu meuu "Troupe" has been missing. Search has been made in and about the temple, but no trace of him can be found. It is feared that he was lost in the great flood which recently swept down the Rocky River some two weeks ago. * 0, for a sound of the voice that has been st ill so long. If anybody sees or hears from our good old friend who has for jiears written with the regularity of the passing week, he b will confer a favor by writing to the Press and Banner. d . --mm t Innue It, IT Xecessnry. f It is said that Injunctions will be Issued t against the blind tigers, preventing them from dealing In liquor. If Charleston is de- J termined to defy the law, let the injunction ? Issue. t Charleston has no bath house. If anybody ? should take one to the exhibition It would no c doubt excite great Interest. * c Hot Weather. g Abbeville baa been hot for several days. J The temperature has ranged from 80 upwards, and, except Charleston, It Is about the hottest 3 city of which we have any record. " PAYING DIVIDENDS, The FIrnt of Jnly Having an Impor- J tance which it Did \ot Formerly t Have. (j The Abbeville Cotton Mill will pay the July n dividend of three per cent, on their stock. * This dividend, aR Capt. Dawson once said, J will be "as welcome as a daisy In a cow's * mouth." July is a good time to receive a J dividend in this section. The Farmers Bank and the National Bank 6 usually pay dividends In July, aud these Id- * Btltutlons will join the cotton mill in putting 1 money Into the people's pockets. * The new warehouse people are not yet ex- J pectlng a dividend. Their second warehouse 1 will be In course of construction In a few days. * Brick are being laid down on the lot. The < owners of stock and the public generally have faith in the stock of this Institution. Any shareholder who may desire to sell can readily tlnd a buyer at par. . The dividends on the School bonds are pay- t ?hl? In Knntpmhar And March. A maloritv . of them are held by people of the city and t county. They bear seven per cent, lnterem. r Their markel value, as Is evidenced by trimsfers, at fifteen per cent, premium. Millinery. Thin department has always been the pride of our Htore.

He Is a great admirer ol the methods of Jr. Swift, the owner of the Pearl Mill. He blnks Mr. Swift makes money whenever bis wheels turn. And whether tbe price of colon goes up or down, he generally lights on lis feet. For Instance: He paid over ten ents for his cotton. He saw tbe price going lown, and when It bad fallen 07 points he old out his holdings. Later, be replaced the otton at 7% cents. The Pearl Mill, when the ordinary goods re In Bllm demand, makes twiue or other oods to meet the demand, and. so whatever be condition of tbe markets, the Pearl Mill isually comes out bead.
