Governor "Waite Says It,
The outlook for Bryan is exceed
ingly good. Mr. Bryan stands pure
of being elected in November
whether the Populists indorse him
or not. In roy own State, Colorado,
all parties have gone over to Bry
an, At least three-fourths of the
Republicans have already declared
for him,
In'my opinion the Bryan ticket
will sweep the South and West,
and a straight Populist ticket nom
inated at this convenion will by
no means carry the full Populist
vote in any State. In many
Western States it will be substan
tially wippd our.
DAVIS H, WAITE,
I regard the nomination of Mr.
Bryan as being quite encouraging
to his supporters, and I ara of the
opiuion that the more the subject
is discussed among the delegates
. of the convention the more it be
comes apparent that he is the best
candidate.
The bimetalic convention seems
to be unanimou3 for him, and with
the nomination from us there will
be a rush throughout the country.
With the votes from the three par-,
- ties he would sweep the country,
leaving for the gold stau dard can
didates the electoral votes of less
than a dozen States."

would convert every mosquito into
a butterfly and . every Republican
into a Democrat ; I would give to
everyman between the two oceans

Cures Nervous Troubles and In
digestion.
Mr. W. T/Nelson, president of
the Second National Bank, of
Jackson, Tenn, says: "For indi
gestion and nervous trouble, I
would rather give up any remedy
than King's Royal Germetuer. As
a nerve tranquilizer and restora
tive, it is all that san be desired.
It is not a narcotic in any sense,
but produces the happiest effects
upon the disordered nervous sys
tem. I consider it an invaluable
remedy, and have for several years
recommended it to my friends."
In ru ii ni ug a newspaper you've

You hustle for copy and rack your
poor brain, fresh morsels of news
for your columns to gain, but it's
all to no purpose the news isn't
th'1 JO, no matter how widely you
rustle and swear. So you trump up
some stuff just to plug up the
space, tell how bicycle riding is
death to the race, how the dads of
the city arn't on to their job, and
how Milligan's heifer got choked
on a cob. Then yon clip 'till the

OONDITIONS OF THE CAMPAIGN MEET
ING IN EDGEFIELD YESTERDAY
SMALL AND QUIET CROWD-NOTH
ING SENSATIONAL.
Speciul to Thc State.
Edgefield, July 29.-Talk about
George Washington's love of coun
try, the patriotism of Patrick Hen
ry and Pinckaey, the desperate
gallantry of the "Noble Six Hun
d? ed," the heroism of Leonidas and
his brother Spartans at Thermo
pylae! Speak not in the sam 3
breath of such minor matters when
remarking upon the valor of the
political campaigners and their
unselfish devotion to a duty they
hope to perform for their State, a3
exempli?ed for the last few day 3
and particularly here to-day, where
the candidates, travel-worn, lim])
and listless, battled for their coun
try's cause in a temperature that
indicated his Satanic majesty had
made large territorial acquisition!?
in the3e parts, and facing a crowd
from which either heat or political
disappointment has extracted all
enthusiasm.
It was first attempted to hold
the meeting in the court house, but
there waB a popular protest against
being incinerated, so the meeting
was adjourned to the grove outside.
There were not over 300 people
present, 15 or 20 ladies making
part of the audience. It was vast
ly different from the Edgefield
meetings of the past six years
There was no whooping or disorder
of any kind. Brother Whitman's
speech was, as yesterday at Aiken,
the liveliest, of the meeting. But
while he was howled at in Aiken,
he was cheered and laughed at
here.
If the demonstrations for the
three senatorial candidates is any
indication of how matters stand
here,' this is not an Evans county.
The county chairman did. his
work well. Speech were limited
within reasonable bounds and the
rule was enforced. When there
aie from 14 to 16 men who desire
to speak from 30 to 90 minutes
each, it is as well to remember
that ihe people and the press hav*
souls to lose and'save.
At ll ?10 a. m" Cou ii'y Chair
man J. M. Gaines asked the Rev.
Mr. Brabham to invoke divine
blessing.
"CRIS"' ROBINSON SPEAKS.
Mr. T! ChTis Robinson of Pick
ens, for superintendent of educa
tion, felt somewhat at home in
Edg?field, where many of his old
schoolmates were. He was not op
posing the administration, nor any
member of it except Mr. Mayfield.
Mr. Robinson explained .why he
advocated maintaining the.Citajafc
the South Carolina college, Clem
son and the woman's college. They
.each had their peculiar work to
perform; and this is an era of build
ing up, not tearing down. But, too,
the public schools should be given
the greatest attention. Mr, May
field's record in holding and hunt
ing office for 16 years was mention
ed. He had not explained whaf
he had accomplished and his last
annual report was a bundle of com
plaints. He U6ed to be a Reform
er, but since he ot in office had
gone back on two of its principles
he would not' rotate and grumbled
at having his salary cut.
MAYFIELD ON ROBINSON.
Mr. Mayfield was too limited in
time and could only refer to some
matters touched on by Mr, Robin
son had said his report was a bun
dle of complaints; he held in his
hand a report from Mr. Robinson
as county superintendent-"I will
not read its details ; I'll put it in
my pocket." There was und^r what
was in Mr. Robinson's report.
A CRITICISN.
Mr. Mayfield implied that the
fact of the scho ).l term in Pickens
being only two months uuder Mr.
Robinson's adminis'ration, while
4 1-10 months in the rest of the
State, did not speak well for his
competitor's work.
Mr. Mayfield then referred to the
achievment8 of Reform.
ROBINSON IN REPLY.
Mr. Robinson was given two min
utes in which to set Pickens
straight on tho matter of school
term. The term had Seen 2 months
the past year because they had
spent a large part of their money
to build school houses. Hereafter
the torm would be doublo in
length.
WATTS ON THE WAR.
Gen. John Gary Watts remum
b^ed that when the cloud of war
hung over Darlington and there
abouts the companies for Edge
field were the first to respond. He
had enemies here and he warned
his friend*' to watch those men who
were going round maligning him.
H'3 was accused of having been a
Brat ton man, but the first vote hp
ever cast was for Tillman. He was
sure the people would not turn him
down and put in his placea new
convert.
RlCHBOURG ON HIS RECORD.
General Richbourg dwelt upon
his military record in war and in
peace, and his action in oiTeriug
his services to protect Governor
Tillman when he was threatened
with bbing lynched during the ex
citement of the Darlington trou
ble (?) He had been a Reformer
pince ?92, voting against Ii i H good
friond, Governor Sheppard. He
tncught hi3 record an I deeds of
daring should overcome any mis
take ol bis iu 1890.
FOR LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR.
Mr. McSweeuy said the accoiir
pliiihtoents of Reform were but just
begun. Ile made allusion lo the
building of Clemson and Winthrop
unclothe improved footingon which
the common schools were placed.
lu the future the condition c
public schools would 'ie stil
ter.
COOPER OF COLLETON.
Mr. Cooper was proud to
the peopl? of this grand old i
ty. He remembered how they
ea to this county in 76 for su
and encouragement and now
rolled up her great majorities
He was running for lieut*
governor and while he could
hope to equal thediguity of tl
oquent, gallant'Sheppard or i
nor the conscientious work c
worlhy Timmerman, he v
promise to give the best servi
his life,
Therw were men on this
paign who had done things
owed the people an apology
Thank God he had taken a h:
plano and would stay on it.
He had been a coruerstou
the "March convention," bu
was not ono of those lief or
who said they had done all
should have done and not
what should have been left
done.
Mr. Cooper then urged the
portance of education.
GREENVILLE'S CHOICE FOR Go
NOR.
Cacdidate Harrison, in th<
minutes allowed him, made
platform pretty clear to th3 pe
of Edgefield. Clemson col
costs too much, he said. The j:
lege tax should be paid into
treasury and the school shouh
operated 0:1 industrial lines
$25,000. He hoped the State w<
not lose money on the dispens
but she had never made a buRii
success of anything underta!
This dispensary had been in op
tion fer three years and the S
had only received the $50,000 lc
ed that institution to start w
Mr. Harrison .fully explained
views on county dispensaries,
promised, if elected, to exec
impartial^' all the statue laws.
Is WALT A WINNER.,
Brother Whitman said thatw
his friend had been speck
about the dispensary it recallec
his mind a preacher's prayer t
the power of the devil should
curtailed. A devout member I
interrupted by saying, ''Oh, Lc
tnke off all the tai.." He thou;
that iniquitous system could
best improved by taking it
where it -sprouted. (Laughter.)
THE ONLY ORIGINAL.
Whitman declared he was
only Tillraanite in South Carol:
on the stump), not excepting I:
Tillman himself. These other f
lows, thes? pap?uckers, werE-1
the cb a mel ion-they took co
from whatever they happened
alight on.
THE BURDEN HE BEARS.
He did not wish to bo consider
egotistical, but tohim was duet
action of the March couvention
1890. He had sent eight men thc
from Union who made* that res1;
-poes&le. * < >
CLAIMS GP REFORM.
Then Brother Whitman tack!
the colleges. To hear the felloi
talk, he said one would thii
there had never been a place
South Carolina where worn;
could go to school before the R
formers built Winthrop. As
matter of iact there were 10 ci
leges for women with a curricula
as high and management as pu
as Winthrop, and there were nit
male colleges.
JOSEPH H. EARLE.
Judge Earle had always admi
ed the men of Edgeriold. He coul
not say why. There was somethin
magnetic which made a mah ac
mire another. He admired th;
people he admired their man hoot
He had .vieited this county as
candidate before-in 1890 whe
he made the contest with Tillmat
Judge Earle then related the eil
cumstances which induced him t
enter that campaign. Before it wa
concluded Tillman had said
"There is nothing wrong with thos
men (State officers) audhewishei
Earle was on his ticket for at toi
ney general.
WHAT TILLMAN SAYS.
There were some people win
have stings in their memory be
cause of his conduct in that cam
paign ; he read an extract from ?
letter from Governor Tillman, say
ing his candidacy had left nc
sting in his memory ; that he hac
a perfect rght to be a candidate
When there was talk of an inde
pendent ticket with his friend'
upon it he had advised against it
He had advised the people not tc
criticise unjustly. He did not
claim to be a Reformer then, nor
now. Neither did he claim to be a
Conservative.
ON FINANCES.
General Earle devoted the re
mainder of his time to a discussion
of coinage. In conclusion, he said
that he had and always would bow
to the will of the majority of tit !
white people. If the people thought
he was best qualified to do their
work in the senate he asked them
to give him their votes. If they
thought either of his competitors
better qualified, vote for the best
man. (Cheers.)
GOVERNOR EVANS MUD.
When Governor Evans was in
troduced Ibero wa3 not a cheer.
He would not waste time in ex
pressing gratification at being
with this people; ho know '.'?em
and owed them much. He would
discuss an issue, the importance of
which had boen unequalled since
the government began. The cry for
free silver bad been first raised by
ono of Edgefield'8 sons-the Hon.
George D. Tillman.
Those who had made lo fighl
then weie called Populists; now
they were called btatesraen. Ile
referred to the great work of the !
Alliance iu getting up the s'-nti- '
mont which mad<- it possible to get
silver. Those who called loudly 1
for silver now and were l ry int; to <
got on the band wagon w?re not in 11
evidence when their f-ervices wera t
needed. Some of them were even t
?ghtinu: the movement, and sait
hat the Shell manifesto yias frrt??
i' it wan false in '9o, it was faUe
IOW.
AN "INUENDO."
He did not see how people in
owns could oppose aud fight the?
armers. Everybody -merchante?;
loctors and lawyers-were depen-f
lent on farmers for their living)
3ut they were not opposing it now:
Dh, no; they were all trying to get
>n the band wagon.
At the conclusion of bis speech,
jovernor Evans receivep a bou
puet of flowers and cheers from
he lusty lungs of not over 25
nen.
WANTED TO GET A WHACK.
Mr. Duncan regre* 'ed that Gov
ernor Evans was going to leave
he stand so soon, as he wanted to
speak of certain matters in hie
learing, bu!, he had advised him
hat hereafter it would be his bu
siness to be at meetings. He spoke
rf his being in touch and sympa
hy with the farmers and doubted
f his opponents knew the differ
ence between "gee and haw," or
lad ever plowed a field on a hot
lay. He reiterated his grounds
"or entering the race, and insisted
bat he believed it his duty to run.
Hie devoted much time to the bond
natter and charged that Senator
Tillman never knew the terms of
he contract with Rhind, and if he
lid, he would never approve it,
ind if the people or Tillman knew
;he "terms of the contract they
,v juld be sure to condemn it.
WHAT IT AMOUNTS To.
It really amounted to his going
lo Rhind and saying : 'Til get you
this job if you will divide with
me." He said he had blistered Gov.,
Evans repeatedly about carrying
irouud a body guard was not with
lim, but there was some one pres
ent and he would later on tell at
fiow many meetings the second
man was present. He said I hal
Evans had been down faced by his
)wn wi'nasses.
EVANS' EARLY HISTORY.
He recounted the two interviews
he li!:d wirti Tillman und showed
lhat Evans voted ti? postpone the
bill accepting thu Clemson bequest
Mid the election of Tillman on the
igricull ural board.
Mr. Duncan closed his speech
by reiterating his charges about
the rebates and what Governor
Evans is alleged lo have said to
Col. Mixson about Tillman's "fill
ing his pockets out of this dispon
Bary." Governor Evans had refer
red lo Mr. Hubbe!! ns a gentle
man, and thu next thing was to ex
peet an affidavit from Hubbell
but be would say that any mau
who would offer rebates or bribes
kvould at any time give a testimqj
nial or "affidavit*f needed. He said
Tillman had made Evans, and all
Evans was he owed to Tillman
ind it was a pretty come off for
Evans to be talking in thia, way
ibout his maker and master.
ii SOTT SNAP. ! - 1 "
Yesterday Governor Evans had
said why the governor should be
chairman of boards, and as the
chairman of the new dispensary
Doard was to be th?.- purchasing
igent, that may explain'his desire

Duncau was given applause at the
conclusion of his speech. .
Mr. Muller, candidate for solici
