We favor the primay system for nominating officers, both State and county, and we were in hopes that this system would have been adopted this year by the State Democratic Executive Committee. The Platform of the March Convention demanded it and Tillman has been pleading for it for the last two years or more, , both of which were ignored by Col. Hoyt and his committee. But when Capt Tillman accepted the decision and entered* the race with the understanding that the Convention system of nominating was adopted; when the battle was over half fought and the victory of the Fanners7 Movement an assured fact; when the opponents of the Movement found themselves whipped at their own game, CoL Earle goes to Greenville and consults with Col. Hoyt, and the first thing we knew a convention is called for August 13 to decide whether the candidates for State offices should be nominated conv4^^n or pri^ msfy plan. Why this counter move upon the political checker board? "Why do these men who have hereto fore so strenuously anu. ?o ently opposed the primary plan now so loudly and sq persistently clamor for it? "Why did they wait until Tillman had fought and won the fight? These are questions which the people , have a right to ash themselves and from which to draw their conclusions. "We do not say that Gens; Bratton and Earle would allow themselves to be mixed up with political frauds for, while we oppose their I nomination, we believe both of them to be high toned, honorable gentlemen who would scorn to accept a nomination conceived in fraud and brought forth in corruption; yet they have supporters who would do ''anything to beat Tillman," and we are forced to the conclusion that the de-1 m&nd for a primary at this late date comes from motives other than a de^_ sire to have the choice of the jSple { made at a primary election^ j[3 a , well established one j trained in the school of Wp&x where' wire V pulling and questionable methode .are rcognized as legitimate is , ?ther <3iffl?putable meansused to defeat the wishes of the people. ITor these reasons we hope that the August Convention will refuse to adopt the primary plan for this election. Besides, there is no earthly use to fight the battle over, as Tillman has already won the fight and can be nominated by the August Convention if he so desires. t Recent events have developed the fact that the opponents of the March Convention are hard at work devising and completing plans by which it is hoped to defeat its suggested candidate, C&pl B. R. Tillman. It is,-no doubt, the purpose of the opposition | to withdraw from the old Democratic clubs where they are in a hopeless minority, yet strong enough to control one or more delegates in t the County Convention by separating, and form a new club and thus obtain representation in the County Convention with a chance of electing a delegate to the State Convention. Of course this will be done only in those counties which will,or will probably, elect Tillman delegates. In order to prevent the successful working of this scheme, let every club favoring the candidacy of Mr. Tillman elect only such men as delegates to the County Convention as is ? known to be in full sympathy with x the views of the club, and the County "Convention instruct its delegates to - the State Convention to support Mr. Tiltyan first, last and all the time. Out of 16 contested election- cases decided by the House of Representatives 10 were in favor of Republicans and 6 in favor of Democrats. But two cases are as yet undisposed of. An Explanation. Mr. Editor: My piece in your par _ per headed "That Unique Proposi;>> " tion" was a very hasty production, ^ exhibited in the rough, though not intended to offend as the prefatory words indicated. TYith more time and a more liberal use of mental sandpaper and pnmicestone it doubtless could have been made smoother ancLdess offensive. In fact it could have been rubbed down so that it would have been without point or sharp edge?would have been perhaps,'^nore ornamental than useful? this I did not desire or intend. That article was written for a purpose, namely, to inform my friend, Capt. SJowles, that his article, especially the unique proposition part of it, rather alarmed some of us "noisy 3'" ' r- . ' " * * -"' T .. N* element" fellows, as it smelt and smacked so strongly of bossism. There was nothing personal in our objection to it, for we would not be willing for any one man to name five others who should make the nomination of delegates, &c. It is the principle of the preposterous proposition that we object to. I had no reference to any past conduct of the Executive Committee or its Chairman. My mind did not run backward at all. It was concerned with the present and the future. I am not the only member of the Executive Committee who was led to think by Capt. Fowles' article that he did not in tend calling the County Convention. This would have been very unfair? would have been very much like taking more of your share of the handstick at a log rolling so as to get an advantage of the man on the other side of the log to pull him down. Had Capt. Fowles been to as many log rollings as I have, he would not have asked what stealing stick means; and as a figure of speech it is easily understood when applied to his unfair proposition. It was unfair to name the gentlemen without their consent, and it was equ$llyjmf?h-i??uS people they were to represent. The five names id not trouble me in the least, and my remarks did not allude to them or either of them; but I certainly cannot go as far as Capt. Fowles. I could not name any five men whose ideas unexpressed, I would blindly in advance bind myself to follow. I would not trust Tillman and the four first or next best men on the reform ticket that far. I must hear from a man and know the road he propose to go before I agree to follow him. My words, out with this vile habit of calling names, needs no explanation. It is plain and unmistakable, and refers to the habit of calling reputable people disreputable names, which I do not undertake to justify in friend or foe. I here desire to repeat that I detest personalities and try to avoid using them directly or indirectly. I respect Capt. Fowles personally, Jhoypfa we differ politically just now, in ii n i iilM'Trnifnii*'''""*'"* should interrupt or even dampen*tefl^ Eriendly intercourse. * i Can't political foes he social friends? t I hope so; far some of my best friends ? sure on the other side in this political i MSitesi In many things we agre&H politically, only they can't "swalkrar ] lilimaB. and I can?got the advdjit- { iru.i u :ai.u./cX I fee^^jgKor J it iea specific J -ria vhkh-is >o prevalent at this time.

Mr. Editor: On the 4th of July it was my pleasure to witness the reunion of all the descendants of Mrs. Elizabeth Roof at her home in Lexington county, five miles west from Columbia. I arrived at 10 a. m. The crowd, already assembled, was large but they continued to come until about II o'clock. On account of the great number we shall only name the six sens of mother Roof, all of whom were present: Jesse Roof, Capi Samuel Roof, James I$oof, Henry Roof, Jacob Roof and Thomas Roof. In front of the dwelling, in a shady grove there was table about eightyfi-eA fflpt Inner. The viands with which this table was covered were in great variety and were such as to tempt the appetite of the most fastidious. At 12 m., mother Roof stood at the head of the table and invited all to come up, when, in a clear voice, plainly heard at the extreme end of the table, she asked the Lord to bless us in the reception of the gifts before us. All, ate and drank lemonade until they were fully satisfied, leaving enough to feed as many more, j Mother Roof's descendants are as | follows; Six sons, three daughters, forty-six grand and great grand sons, forty-four grand and great. grand daughters, making an aggregate of ninety-nine. Mother Roof is eightyeight years of age. She has retained in a remarkable degree the faculties of youth. She has ever been noted for her exemplary piety, and when she looks upon the ninety and nine of her lineal descendants she can rejoiceJ and say "Verily Lord, thou hast given me reward for my labor as a Christian mother." * The majority of these children are engaged in agriculture, while she is ably and very honorably rpr>r*??v>T>t.Ad in the ministry of Christ, in the offices of the county, the mercantile fraternity and other occupations, and all are doing well. Better than all, however, is the fact that every one of this large family is a member of some church, many of them being very active members. This was indeed a pleasant day, the I return of which it is hoped mother i Roof will live to see many times. [ Columbia, S. C., J. H. K. July 10th, 1890. | _____ Bull Swamp Democratic Club. | Bull Swamp Democratic Club is c .iled to meet at Uriah Jefcoat's on Saturday, August 2d, at 3 o'clock in in the afternoon, to consider resolutions of the Executive Committee and other business. T V, Cr u i, President. k > ^ Letter from Mr. T. Holzhauser. Mi*. Editor and Readers of the Dispatch: "The people Rule,'' and may they ever continue to do so, but Let not prejudice and false statements lead them astray. "Festus," in his article, has given me, as he supposes? "Hail Columbia,'and fits in general." But this has not had the desired effect upon me. I do not intend to leave off espousing the cause which I think the righteous one; but beg to say this: I have ever in my scribblings, as they are termed, avoided personalities and shall endeavor to do so in future, and for this reason will not stoop to continue a controversy with any one who has not the grit and., honor to do likewise. If my arguments are not sufficient to sustainme, you will find that I stop scribbling. I am not at all adverse to continuing this controversy with "Festus" on these straightforward and gentlemanly terms, but shall not deem it necessary to answer any more articles as full of personal fun poking as Festus's article in last issue. This much for a proper understanding. Festus claims that B. JR. JTilh&a&-, -&0fc&HusvxpmKjn about tbe Soutn Carolina University and Citadel as he he did five years ago. If he does he did not have the manhood to express himself to that effect in that memorable March Convention. There he expressed himself favorable to both, and most especially to the University. This I do not give from heresay or from newspaper reports, but from personally hearing his expressions, and I do not refer to >ny answers he may or may not have given during his campaign on the subject. In the second place "Festus" did grow quite eloquent about my terming B. R. Tillman an "agitator." Now, according to his own arguments, that is neither disreputable nor anything else very bad in itself. But since he, "Festus," has gone to such an extent to argue the name of agitator, I simply beg to give my humble view upon the subject. While I do not pretend to say that agitation is wrong or hurtful, on the contrary believe it necessary, I do assert that the motives carrying on sucCTHlfc a?" tation must determine whether rach an agitation is wrong. - For 1 unpl^ "Festus" will surely not i rogate such men as Cromwell of En?S mid, Robespiere and' MaratS^ France, and many others who^ f?r selfish and ambitious motives, haw6 nade themselves a name < named by "Festus." But what is use of losing so many words abouH this, when I called Tillman an agitator I did so, not as a grave charge, but for the want of a more suitable title. I certainly could not have called him "Reformer," as so far he has not reformed anything, and I would not call him "Bamboo zler,"-as he has been often called, because, in my scribblings, I ever endeavor to be as conservative as possible. To a fair minded man it will appear quite plain that the reason that this campaign has been, and is, so bitter as it is, must be ascribed to one side as well as the other, with this one difference that the provoc ation first came from the Tillman faction. First, by his libelous charges against our past and present administration; and, secondly, by the renowned "Shell Manifesto" with which, by the way, Tillman had something to -do also. Lastly, as to my assertion that the Tillman movement is looked ? a v:? Sm upon as OOCIiUlSUl, Atuumumi, ous;., by the world, as well as by my humble self, when I wrote those lines I was perfectly aware of what I was saying and did so advisedly and am ready to do so again. I ask what is Socialism and all the other isms put together but an uprising against the present government, teaching the citizens disrespect toward their officers? And now, I ask, are Tillman's charges against our government officials, as well as our legislators, not precisely the same? True enough the people have not been led to measures so extreme as in those countries where those conditions have existed for a number of years, but some fruits have shown themselves, and we have only to think over the past to find when, where and how. "What this will lead to cannot be foretold and though I do not believe it to be the intention of B. R. Tillman, he can never control the prejudiced masses when once truly aroused. Let it be remembered that good and honest men are on the side of Socialism as well as Tillmanism and all other isms; they are there for srood intentions, but this mode of ap pealing to the prejudices of the people to gain popularity, is a dangerous undertaking and has proved to be so in all times past. Why a man is ostracised and considered as a Kadical by quite a number of our people who are so infatuated by Tillman and his followers that they will not, neither can think calmly or dispassionately for themselves. In conclusion, allow me to say onco more that I am perfectly willing to answer any and all articles from any one of the numerous Tillmanites, provided they keep within the scope of proper argument and leave off all i / A peraonalitiesid^^^^Hng, as, in my humble opun^MB^a course can only serve ^nake the difference of opinion wide^nd the contestants more bitter, theyery fchin^ which "Festus" regrets? this prestot campaign.
