Edenfield Advertiser ["HOS. J. ADAMS,.EDITOR WEDNESDAY, MARCH 7, 1894 London has a cemetery for pet dogs. Gladstone has resigned his posi tion as premier of England. The Queen hes accepted his resigna * tion and chosen Lord Roseberry as his successor. As platforms will be the order of the day this year we respectfully submit one that will meet the necessities of the occasion : "Hog, hominy, and harmony." In Europe the chestnut is large ly utilizod for food. Flour is made of it and a cheap sugar, and French cooks use them in all sorts of toothsome dishes, from soup to turkey dressing. Col. John S. Richardson, ex congressman from Sumter district, died Monday, Feb. 26th, at his residence near the city of Sumter. His wife died about a year pre vious. _ The Governor has ordered con fiscation of the part of the dis pensary profits belonging to Florence and Columbia. The cases of Newberry and Charleston are under consideration. A movement is on foot among the Clemson College boys to or ganize a brass band and als.) a string band. A barber shop has been established for the conve nience of the students. New uni forms have been ordered. Every thing seems tobe running smooth ly. ____ The recent charge to the grand jury of ' Clarendon County by Judge Benet, newly elected judge from Abbeville county, has rarely been surpassed in clearness of ex pression, purity of diction, and solid stuff generally. The grand jury speaking of the charge called it "able and magnificent." The last Legislature appro priated .$5,000 as an artificial limb fund. The fund will be distributed in the usual manner, through the ClerkB of the Courts, and there will be no change except that those entitled to the benefits of the ap priatiou, who did not receive their quota last year, will be given pre ference this year above others. The State authorities have been informed that George H. Walter, the county treasurer of Chaileston has been paid $1,297.83, the amount of the shortage of John L. Weber, ex-school commissioner of Charleston, the story of whose crime has been published. The money was psid by Leland Moore, a brother-in-law of Weber, but one of the best and most honest men Charleston. For him and the other innocent ones there is the deepest sympathy. No news has recently been received as to the whereabouts of Weber, but he is supposed to be still at Trinity college. The Anderson county grand jury last week made a presentment which contains the following re ference to the Dispensary law and its enforcement : "We are pleased tc note the marked decrease in drunkeness since the passage of the Act com monly known as the Dispensary law, and the decrease of crime as shown by the small number of bills handed to us by the Solici tor. We confidently believe that the Dispensary law has contributed to these results, and that the benefits would be much greater if the law was properly enforced everywhere in the State. PERMANENT RECEIVER. Jupge R. C. Watts has appoint ed Arthur S. Tompkins Esq., of our town, permanent receiver of tne Chester Manufactiuing Com pany. We hope it will not be necessary for Mr. Tompkins to re move to Chester to discharge the duties of his new office for he would be greatly missed in our community. GEN. BUTLER'S SPEECH. Gen. Butler addressed an au dience in the court-house on Mon day of this week, respectable in numbers and fairly appreciative in sentiment. The crowd was made up of the two factious in about equal proportions, so far as we could judge. The General gave an account of his past steward ship with but slight reference to State politics and without any dis tinctive promise* as to the future. This account was fairly lucid and satisfactory without exciting any special or marked enthusiasm on the part of his hearers. In fact, a great many came merely to hear what this distinguished citizen had to say, and actuated entirely by curiosity, and it was not in any sense a Butler demonstration. We do not suppose it was so intended. As a "demonstration"-a popular outpouring-it proved Lead Sea apples-dust and ashes ! THAT BUGLE CALL. The first blast of the .Reform bugle, in the shape of a call to the faithful to assemble at EcTgefield on the 2nd day of April next, ap pears in another column. It is worded so clearly and understand ingly that the wayfaring mau, though a fool, may not err therein. It is hoped that the campaigu of 1894 may be made on peaceful lines. Those reformers who are not willing to admit that we as re formers have made mistakes in the past ero not reasonable and claim for themselves thatwbic'i cannot be claimed by murial man, infalli bility. , On the other hand those who have opposed and still oppose the reform movement and fail to see any good or any promise in all these things are wedded to their idols and should be pitied-not cursed; they are blinded by prejudice or passion. TI1?6 hope is especially addressed to the reformers of Edgefield county. We have fought through two campaigns, victorious both, and the tide is still rising. There are more reformers in Edge field county to-day than two years ago. This is our deliberate judg ment. Such being the case then, we can afford to be generous, to give and fake, remembering always that the white people of South Carolina are brothers. It bas been charged against the Reform party in South Carolina that its adherents were socialists and anarchists in their tendencies if not in their tenets. We invite our readers to carefully con over the names of those citizens attach ed to this call, and say, if they can, that such men can mean aught but good for the people in anything they may do or say. Eminently respectable and undoubtedly pa triotic, their lives give an abundant refutation to any such slander. TILLMAN OVER THE WATEB The Bishop o?* Chester Writes for the Dispensary Law and Com pliments Gov. Tillman. On Saturday last Gov. Tillman received a letter from the Bishop of Chester, Chester, England, in regard to the South Carolina dis pensary mw. It will next be in order for the English people to ask that when the duties of life are done Westminister Abbey shall be permitted to holdall that is mortal of South Carolina's famous chief executive. The letter is dated from the Palace of Chester, Feb. 20, 1S94, and reads as follows : SIR: Through the courtesy of the editor of the North American Review I have been enabled to read your article on the South Carolina liquor law, and I hope you will allow me toexprtss the interest and pleasure with which I have seen your clear assertion that the main motive of the dispensary law was not financial or political, bnt social ; and also that the re sults, even under outset difficulties, have been decidedly encouraging My apology for troubling you is that with other and more weighty persons I have been working on corresponding iines in England, endeavoring to get the liquor trade taken, at least experimentally, out of private and placed in public bands. On the invitation of Mr. Brice I have written an article on the subject, which will, I hope, reach him in time for the March number of the North American Review..e*We in England are fol-1 lowing with much interest the American movements. They will greatly strengthen our hands if they succeed. Though tho appli cation of the principle may con veniently differ in diff?rent places the fundamental principle, viz. : 'hat the liquor monopoly should be in public hands and managed for public not private, is the same throughout. If ycu could kindly let me have a copy of your dispensary law, as now amended, I should esteem it a great favor. I have thc honor to remain, sir, your obedient, faithful servant, F. J. CESTO, Bishop of CLester. Tribute ol' iie.spect.

P. R. WATES, W. II. BCSSEY, J. P. FUKK?.ASD, Committee. ULIMAN ON "BEFOBM. He Continues to Oppose Early Nominations. Colnmbii Uojristcr. "Governor, you have seen the call of the Coller?n Reformers foi a mass meeting in that county on Monday, March 5th, for the elec tion of a delegate to a State con vention, and an invitation to tho ^ther counties to do likewise. What do you think of it?" The governor answered, after some consideration of the question UI feel some reluctance in obtrud ing ray views on the public on a matter which I ful'y discussed in an interview shortly after my re turn from Washington. There is evident among the people a feeling of restlessness and uncertainty arising from all this talk and advocacy of an early convention. If the 'autis' wera making any ac tive moves I could understand it, and see how it would be desirable or necessary to concentrate the reform vote in support of one leader, but the advocates of a con vention to nominate a reform can didate for governor appear to forget that such a nomination without previous discussion to allow the people to judge of the ' fitness of the various aspirants, is totally inconsistent with all our previ ous professions and practices, and must necessarily breed heart burnings among the candidates who may be out and cause disgust among their friends. The dangers which some men profess to see, if there is a free for-all race in the primary, do not appear to me as great as those which may confront us should the man who may ge: such nomination n it meet tho ex pectations of the people when he begins to canvass." "You lake it then, that the can didate for governor will canvass, even though hu has no opposition?" "Why, of course, The constiiu tion of the democratic party in this State requires candidates for State offices to make a canvass, and should a convention put forward a mau who did not give satisfac 11ion on the stump, some other re former, or unobjectionable anti would inevitably be brought out and might beat the convention nominee. We had better be con sistent in our practices and ad here to our principles and run the one danger rather than stultify ourselves and at the same time run the other risk." "What^then, do you consider the best course to be pursued by the reformeis?" was the straight question which was asked next. "The Colleton people have hit on a scheme to allay the unrest, which is, perhaps, as good as any, with two additions or changes. They were in too big a hurry, and instead of calling a conven tion of one from each county, the mass meeting of reformers in the different counties should simply meet and elect ono of their best men, with no axe to grind, to form a State campaign committee. It takes at least three weeks for any movement among the people to get under way, so as to carry the whole mass. One half the reformers in Colleton do not know that a mass meeting is called for that county next Monday, and not knowing it, they would resent any radical action such as instructing their delegate of one to the State con vention to call a nominating con vention later. If it is the desire of the masses of the reformers to move in this matter, the process is easy and simple, but it must not be too hurried. There is no need of hurry, anyway, and any move ment which does not come from the people themselves will create dissatisfaction and meet defeat." "How, then, shall the thing be brought about?', "Well, in my judgment the only way in which it can be brought about is for fifteen or twenty lead ing men in each county to unite in a call similar to that of the Col loton leaders for a mass meeting of reformers at their respective court house.n, salesday in April, to elect a member of a State reform campaign committee. This can be done next Monday in every county and 1 hope it will be done. There are many reasons why we should have such a committee of which I will tell you presently. A month being given during which the people can discuss the question of convention orno convention the mass meetings in April, when they elect their representatives on the State campaign committee, can at the same time decido fer or against a convention and in struot as to (heir wishes' If any shorter time is given the com mittee would not represent truly the wishes of the people." "Well, governor, tell me what this committee would have tn do?" was asked. "The first thing," he answered,! would be lo set at rest this ques tion of a reform nominating con vention, and until that is done the bickerings and jealousies and am- 1 bitions of the aspirants for the various offices will keep the reform camp in a constant state of turmoil. If it is decided by this committee to call a convention (coming as it will, from the peo ple, after fair and full notice.) no fair minded, loyal reformer can object and we will have gained that unity and harmony which do not now. exis1. If, on the other hand, the question of nomination be left to be settled at the August primary, as I hope it will be, this' committee will have chargoof the reform campaign, and look after fhe interests of the reform fac tion." "Would it have any specific powers or duties other than those mentioned?" "Of coursa, it would be subordi nate to the State democrtic exe cutive committee, for we must never lose sight of white unity as the only means of preserving white supremacy. Wo have the right to organize and contend inside the democratic party for men and measures, but when the party speaks through its accustomed channels, every decent, patriotic man must submit," "Why would not the State demo cratic executive committee, which is composed almost entirely of re formers, answer?" "Because that committee "?rep resents the entire party, both Reformers and antis, and it can not, with propriety, organize one wing of the party against another." "Do you think it likely that the antis will organize and put out a candidate?'' "If lhere is unity and harmony and fair play among the re formers, no, not for governor or State officers, but they are going to make a desperate effort to con trol the legislature ; and the whis key ring and railroads will furnish a large corruption fund." "Why do you think they will make their principal fight for the legislature?" "The whiskey people because they want to repeal the dispensary law; the railroads in order to enjoy in security the special privilegs which they had before I was elected, of paying such taxes as they saw fit." "What about national issues Will they cut. any figure in the coming campaign?" "Most assuredly. Mr. Cleve land is using his patronage to strengthen the antis wherever ktke can, and the goldbugs will doubt less supplement the railroad and whiskey campaign fund to any extent that may be necessary." "You think money will be used freely then in the campaign?" "Oh, yes; all that can be plac ed where it is thought it will do any good." "Have you any fears?" "Not if the advice which I have given in this interview is followed. The Cleveland goldbng demociats and the corporations can not buy our people. The reform cause is as strong now as it ha9 ever been. With good leadership our victory next summer will be a repetition of the campaigns of 1890 and 1892." "If the people instruct the cam paign committee to call a nomi nating convention, what would you advise?" "Why, that is simple. Let the reformers in each township meet and elect delegates to a county convention just the same as a democratic county conven tion. The balance of the program me could conform in every respect to tb.3 system adopted by the democratic party as a whole." "Under such circumstances would the conservatives take part in the regular democratic pri maries?" "I think most of them would, because, as I have said, their fight will be for the legislature. I don't think, after the experience of 1890 that considerable numbers of them would be willing to try a repetition of Haskellism. Some, of course are ready now to ignore the demo cratic primary and make their fight at the November election,but there are only a few thousand of them, not enough to accomplish anything."
