Edenfield Advertiser THUS. J. ADAMS,.EDITOR WEDNESDAY, AUG. 12,1896. WILLIAM JESXIXOS IRTAN. "You shall not press down upon the hrow of lahor thiu crown of thorns. You shall rot crucify mankind upon a cross of gold." DEMOCRTIC TICKET, FOR PRESIDENT. WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN, OF NEBRASKA. FOR VICE PRESIDENT, ARTHUR SE WALL, OF MAINE. Cotton men say that ''never in the history of the trade hes the statistical position of cotton been so strong, and if it shall appear as the season advances that the crop is going to be short of 9,000,000 bales there is sure to be a scram blt among spinners for every bale brought to the market." A cotton tie trust haviug been 'formed to advance the price of cotton ties, the presidents of the various county Milliauces in the State are requested to call mass meetings in their respective coun ties as early as practical to dis cuss the question cf- cotton ties. This call is signed by Joseph L. Keitt, President Farmers' Al liance. Edgefield County Reformers have made up their minds to vote for Earle and Duncan for the Uni ted States Seuate rather than for John Gary Evans. What the con servatives propese todo we know not indeed we hope the lines wih not be drawn in this race or in any other but that to be a Demo crat pure and simple is the only intention of every white mau in this cld^stronghold of the faith, Edgefield County. .Vote always for the best men and you can never be far out of the right road. Uncle George Tillman has been made chairman of the Board of Visitors of Clemson College. We do not know exactly what this means. Uncle George has always been opposed to this institution pronouncing it from time to time a "humbug of tho first water." Now that many, reformers as well as others, have come to the humbug conclusion as to Clemson, it seems tbat its greatest enemy becomes Vita friend. In its original concep tion and inCeptiou Clemson was a grand and gloriou.3 possibility but in its management and adminis tration it has proven dead sea fruit and not even uncle George can make it pan out to its first promise. What Pope (not Samps) 3aid of governments is alto true of other things. "What's best admin istered is best." They Should Speak Out. The people of South Carolina have surely becomes tired of the charges and insinuations made du ring the so-called canvass. There have been some evasions. This is all very tiresome. What the voters want is astatement of facts such faat the omission to deny will be taken as confssion. 'It is useless to conceal the fact . that there are suspicions among nonpartisan. . fair-mined, sober, thinking people, that there has been something wrong as well in | the management of the dispensary system as in the bond deal with Rbind. Governor Evans, Senator Tillman and Col. Mixsou are under euspi ciotP. Tho people want more light. They wrant something more than deni.il or denunciation. They wan! evidence, or, at least, a plain, circumsantial statement sustained, whenever possible, by vouchers or other documents. We have had some of these already But more are reeded to clear away doubts that exist in the minds of many mind3 unaffected by prejudice or partsan bias.-Ex. Tbi.t was a nicely arranged and well carried out job at Orangeburg. Governor Evans spiked Duncan's guns by his resolutions that the candidates must not be personal. No one was fooled, the ruse was loo thin, the people understand it. Evans may stop Duncan, but peo ple will continue to ask who got the commissions and what abouti the whiskey rebaies. John Gary Evans in speaking to Col. Mixson of the Dispensary re bate said : "Mick wo all know yon Jbavn't got a dollar out of this "but i ; ou know that Ben Tillman filled ; his pocket? out of tho Dispensary." j M-O-R-E C-A-T-S. Mixson Opens Another Bag and Lets Out an Entirely New B:reed.--Called the I. B. A'S, In terest-Bearing Accounts. One by One the Roses Fade, Drop by Drop the Truth Leaks Out. The State, Aue. 7. In The State yesterday morning there was puplbhed a card from Hubbell, who had been charged with offering Col. Mixeon $52.50 a carload in whiskey rebates for pur chasing his XXX goods. Mr. HubbelPs ca^d. was full of plain English and was aflat denial of the charge. Now Col. Mixson comes to the front and makes a statement in regard to the matter in which he throws some mere light on the in side workings of the dispensary. He intimates, too, that Mr. Hub tell is "a liar" if he means what be says. He tells of a good deal of money that was wasted before he took charge and states that nearly all the whiskey used before his ad vent was purchased from the Mill Creek people. But here is Col. Mixon's card to speak for itself. Columbia, S. C., Aug. 6,1896. To the E i;tor of The State: In your issue oi to-day you have a card signed Mill Creek Distilling Co., Geo. Hubbell, secretary, in which he concludes as follows: ''If commissioner Mixson says I ever offered him, directly or indi rectly, a dollar ir. any shape what ever he states what is absolutely false." I have been drawn into this veiy reluctantly and'had hoped that the matter had blown over and I would not be required to say any thing, but asa man who is jealoue of his honor and one who is not afraid td resent an insult, I am forced to make the following state ment of facts: I have been connected with the dispensary since the first concep tion of the scheme and was ic charge under Senator Tilluiau'f: directiou when the building waE being put in fix for bottling, Mr Traxler, then the commissioner, be iug at his home in Timmonsville quite ill with typhoid fever. A fte] Mr. Traxler's recovery and return I was retained in the capacity ol superintendent, which position ] held until Mr. Traxler resigned and I was honored with the ap pointment. During my term as superinten dent I naturally discovered thai the bulk of the whiskies bott led bj us was purchased from Mill Creel through Mr. Geo. Hubbell, who waf frequently down here. I also dis covered that in making these pur chases Mr. Hubbell, or Mill Creek I should say, was requiring and be ing paid an interest on them aftei 30 cays, each 30 days calling foi mo 'e or bigger interest. On being appointed^ommission or in January, 1895, and being in possession of "those facts of in terest-bearing accounts, and not intending relieving Mi. Traxlei till ;?eb. 1st, I commenced to look around and see if I could not do something better for the State and save at least, the thousands and thousands of dollars being paid in inteiest to Mill Creek. About Jan. 30, some 10 days or perhaps more before I took charge, Mr. Hubbell showed up and was anxious to as certain if I intended to continue the trade with him. My replv was, "That deponds." He asked^ "De pends on what?" I replied, "On you ; I want the same whiskies or better, at the same prices or lesa with 5 per oent. off as discount or rebate." He seemed to be utterly dumbfounded and exclaimed : "Do you want the earth?" I replied, "No, but this I want, and this I in tend to have." He went on to say that my proposition was one thal he nor no one else could entertain and wanted to know if I had cal culated the 5 per cent. off. He in quired when I wouid be in the market for purchases, and upon being told that it would take sev eral days after Feb. ls*- to make the transfer, he asked me again for the purchases, if I sh uld need anything before he returned in February. I told him, "Only on my terms." On assuming the duties, Feb. 1, I very soon discovered that I need ed some Bourbon whiskies and wired him : "Same whiskey, same price, 5 off ; send me X and XX Bourbon." I received a wire in re pl) : " Wi11 ship at once." A few days after this I received a letter saying: "Your telegram ordering Bourbon received, and knowing from its being a wire that you were in need, we hasten to make ship ment, Lut we cannot give you ihe terms, eec." I immediately wired him : "Order car3 back ; won't re ceive them only on my terms." lu a few hours I received a wire : "Cars too far advanced to order back ; receive them on your !erms." In due course the cars arrived and were received. Bill for samo came carno in with 5 per cent, oft" and was paid. I clo not recollect when nor how often Mr. Hubbell camf: to see me in the few mouths that followed before the following occurred: Ho asked me to take h:m into the sample room and show him the XXX rye that I was purchas ing, I dui so, and while in there alono, he and I, he offered me his XXX ry at the same price he had formerly sold it to the dispensary with the interest on, foi the same price per gallon, 10 per cent, dis count ; and, if my memory serves me correctly, he made tho follow ing calculation lhere and then : Cost $2.25 per gal. ; 10 per cent off, makes 22 1-2 cents per gal. ; 50 gallons to a bBrrel makes $11.25 and 50 barrels to a ear makes $562.50. I said, "Will you put this discount on the invoices and let it show up regularly?" He replied that he could not do so; that he was a member of the trust, but for me to pay the invoices at the regu lar price of $2.25 per gallon and ho would return me 10 per cent, off in cash. This I refused to do and no purchase has been made from him by me. These are the facts in the case and includes all I have said OB to Mr. Hubbell's offer lo me. If he says any part of it is untrue he is a liar. F. M. MIXSON. TUKN~??? THE LIGHT. A Distinguished Reformer Asks for Light More Light, and all Honest Reformers are Praying the Same Prayer. No TIME FOR WABBLING -THE CON TINUANCE OF THE REFORM MOVE MENT DEMANDS AN HONEST TELL ING OF THE TRUTH, THE WHOLE TRUTH, AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH. The following card from a Re form member of the recent con stitutional convention appeared in the Register of the 6th August : EDITOR REGISTER: At the cam paign meeting in Barnwell I saw Mr. Duncan stated that Mr. Mix son had paid that Tillman., or that Governor Evans said he had "fill ed his pockets with rebates." I am a Reformer and was arnon? the first to espouse the Reform cause and accept B. R. Tillman as its leader. I am a R?former from principle. I was actuated from a law of justice to Btep over on the side of the masses and demand their rights. I wanted to see by the votes of tho people that any man could hold office if he was honest and intelligent enough tn fill the position Prior to 1890 it had almost reached that point where pedigree was the only pass port to office and positions of trust. It was the love of country that ac tuates me now to a3k, yes, to de mand of Mr. Mixson, who ?6 him self a recipient of wages from thc people of our State, to answer in full if the charges against Gover nor Evans recited and preferred by Mr. Duncan at Barnwell are false in toto or whether any part of the charges be true. I bulievt Mr. Mixson will give the answei without faltering and without any attempt to evade, and such an an swer tho people demand. This it: no-time forman in public trust to hide crime, if crime exiietp, com mitted by others when we have plenty of Reformer.*, in the State who are pure enough lind-strffi ciently competent to fill any posi tion. We are not dependent cu any men for party sake. If the charges are without foundation then Mr. Mixson has already wait ed too long and should be glad of an opportunity to give his public denial. I would not ask this ques tion but for thu fact that it has been published that "Mr. Mix son was on the stand" when they were preferred aud did not deny them then and there. Besides the bear on the pride of our party when it is charged that "Tillman filled his pockets with rebates." I, as a Reformer and citizen, have a right to ask these questions and the people of this State have a right to know if Governor Evans made such statemen's. We take them a3 au insult and if they are false Mr. Duncan should be made to hold up. R. P. Stackhouse. Oswego, S. C., Aug. 4,1896. When the above was Bhown to Col. Mixson he declined to say anything in regard to it. p DR.
