The Lexington Dispatch G. XL. HARMAN, Editor aud Publisher ' LEXINGTON, S. C., WEDNESDAY. JUNE 27. 1894. "LET US HAVE PEASE." Id another column will be found a timely article from the Abbeville Pres.s and Banner. That part of the article in question which pleas for peace meets are hearty approval, and should its advice be heeded by the leaders and members of both factions of the Democratic party, much of the strife, bitterness and division which now exists among the whites, which has so long prevailed in polities in this State, would be supplanted by a more brotherly feeling and the reign of peace and prosperity re-established; the factions could come together with the determination to make the welfare of the State the first consideration and who shall hold offices secondary, and, to more successfully apply the remedies for the relief of a suffering people. The signs of the times are alto- I gefcher too squally for the white peo pie to remain longer divided on such ' unimportant issues which are now keeping thera apart. Already too much hatred and auimosity has been engendered, which has taken such deep root in the hearts of some people that they will perhaps not die out for generations yet to come, and in order that no further damage may be done, all hostilities should at once cease and peace be restored. This bitterness is not alone confined to the Conservative element. It is true, however, that to their plan of campaign, to their unreasonable demands and the persistent and relentless misrepresentation and abuse of the Reform leaders and their supporters and friends is due, to great extent, much of the bitterness existing to day; yet the Reformers are to cAmP pyfent. eouallv to blame. It | W """"" ~ * A v takes two to make a quarrel. They should have pursued the even tenor of then* way, secure in the knowledge of their strength, invited their aid and received their su?gestions with due consideration and courtesy. Had this been done, there would have doubtless been no occasion for any bitterness and everything would have settled down to their normal condition. FOE AD, AND INSPT. GENEBAL In a card published in the Sunday Register, General Richbourg announces his candidacy for Adjutant and Inspector General. The following is Lis card: Editor Register: I have been nominated by several of the newspapers in different parts of the State for the position of Adjutant and Inspector General and have been urged by many friends in both political factions to accept the nomination and * ** 1 ??Troolf nQ a can puDiiciy aouuuuuc ? _ ? didate. As the militia of this State need a thorough re-organization, it would be my pride and pleasure to place the military forces of the State on a footing second to none in the Union. In the performance of my duties as an officer of the State, I pledge myself to know no political faction and I point to my record in the past as evidence of the truth of what I assert. I have, therefore, de- termined to become a candidate for | the position of Adjutant and Iuspec- ( tor General. It. X. Richbourg. Columbia, S. C., -June 23. General Richbourg will be pre- J vented from canvassing the State by ] reason of the demand upon his time as commander of the troops at the Spartanburg encampment. ,J The Reformers now have an op- i portunity of showing their gratitude to a gentleman and a soldier, who, at the call of his State made through its Governor, resisted the advice of his personal friends, forgot his pcliti- < cal prejudices, and in the face of strong pressure, promptly responded with his sword, his time and his life and laid them at the service of his State, to preserve the peace and uphold the dignity and supremacy of the law. Let us Reformers show our appreciation of his patriotism and his gallant services by elevating him to that position, where his experience, training and pride would be of incalculable benefit to the State by placing the militia of the State in a position second to none in the Union. A report comes from Chicago that a powerful combination, numbering at a low estimate a million and a half m/m lioo Kfion Kol iroon jlio lULii) Aicto MV/VXi AWi ;ilVV4 tM veil til v Kniglits of Labor, Railroad men, Alliancemen and other labor organizations for concert of action in political matters. Its primary object is said to be the formation of a new political party to protect their interest in the government of this country. Should this report prove true and the combination be harmoniously effected, and it is reasonable to sup pose mat me varied interests 01. these people can be so (love tailed or blended as to make them an unit on demands, they will weihl a political influence in this country that will make the moss backs in both of the old political parties tremble, and will spur them up to greater diligence in considering the interest of the whole people rather than those of Wall street alone. -\t*. i i _ i n. ! >ve logit;l lu set me uuu lut^uui- i - ! j paign ineetiDgs took at Chester and j Lancaster. We had hoped that the j debates at these meetings would be j upon the issues now before the jieople j and the discussion of personal mat- i : ters avoided. The manner in which J ! { the meetings were conducted at | these places was simply disgraceful and calculated to keep people from l attending them. We hope there will I be no repetition of such shameful conduct at any of the other meet- j ings. ^ ? r The annual meeting of the State . . 1 Teachers' Association will be held in \ Converse College at Spartanburg, commencing July 1st. The pro- gram is an elaborate one and the j session promises to be profitable and ( interesting. c : I) Mr. Izlar introduced in the House on June 10th, a bill appropriating t $50,000 to enable the Secretary of ^ War to protect and preserve Fort ] Moultrie on Sullivans Island in rJ Charleston harbor. * ______________ v Gen. John Sain Vomer is just now a receiving more than his share of abuse h from some quarters for acting accord- a iug to his judgment in political mat- c ters. But John Sam is all right. o The News and Courier objects to h the re-organization of the Reform b Democratic clubs in the different c< c< counties, and favors the organization ^ of clubs under the Hampton call. o: If we do not have a separate box " at the August primaries to vote for ^ United Senator, bow are we to vote v< for the candidate of our choice? ai ol State Treasurer Hates has made the announcement that the July in- p terest on State bonds would be paid o; promptly on July 1st. " o: u A Good Appetite e' Always accompanies good health, P and an absence of appetite is an in- a dication of something wrong. The ^ loss of a rational desire for food is ^ soon followed by lack of strength, for when the supply of fuel is cut off ^ the fire burns low. The system ^ gets into a low state, and is liable to ^ severe attacks of disease. The uni- a versal testimony given by those who have used Mood's Sarsaparilla, as to P its great merits in restoring and J shamenino- the annetite, in nromot- P ; x o i i - * # . ing healthy action of the digestive " organs, and as a purifier of the T blood, constitutes the strongest re w commendation that can be urged for tl any medicine.

To the Editor of the Dispatch: The continued dry weather has almost caused our farmers to suspend work until it rains. Crops are suffering very badly, but still the re is aline prospect ahead, as they are in good condition. Corn is a very good average though small. Mr. L. C. Hartley has the finest field of corn in this section. He is r model young farmer in every respect. Watermelons were' extensively planted by some ot our I armors near lie railroad this year for shipment, rhey are looking tine. Several of our citizens are engaged o o n the turpentine business. It seems ,o l?e paying very well. A convict, working on the farm of Mr. J. Win. Mitchell, escaped from he stockade last Friday evening. -Ie stole a suit of clothes from one >f the guards and made good his c-s\ape. At last accounts he was still it large. The commencement exercises of he Leesville College were largely atended all the way through. This is , tine institution of learning and is iberally patronized all over the State, "he completion of its course entitles he student to a diploma, together nth the degree of A. B. Politics is being talked but little s yet. The people have learned at ist that industry and self reliance re the only methods by which they an derive any personal benefit whatver. Political agitation, in my pinion, is doing our State more iniry than the evils of whisky. It as caused more hard feeling and itterness among our people than an be removed for many years to imp. and thev have received no enefit whatever. Many people condemn the action f the State prohibition convention 1 not nominating or suggesting can idat.es for the various State olfices. uch action on the part of the conention will certainly be endorsed ad commended by every true citizen f South Carolina. There is only xmi in this State for one party, and lat is the white man's or Democratic arty. Every intelligent person has nly to refer to statistics to prove mt drunkenness is the greatest evil f the nation. It costs this country lore than one billion of dollars very year to take care of the 800,000 aupers and the 315,000 criminals, nd the 30,000 idiots, and to burv le 75,000 drunkards. Besides this ; is ruining the minds, bodies and duIs of the human race. But what ; to be done to arrest this evil? v, 1 itt i-v-iv-klti l\?f?

Does not this alone rove that the demand for strong rink is too great to try and enforce roliibilion in oue or two years? We ave to prepare for it before it comes, 'he Dispensary has been tried and, ith few exceptions. I believe was le best bill ever passed to remedy le evils of whisky. When a man as delirium tremens, we do not take is whisky abruptly away from him. Ve mix a little in his medicine and nally get him in shape to take it "om him entirely. So we must treat ae State, for the State is but a eolation of individuals and has the line symptoms and desires as its amponent parts. The speech of Hon. James F. slar, member of Congress from this istrict, on the 10 per cent, tax on tate bank notes, has been received y some of our citizens.

One of le reasons which he gives is that le platform of his party recommends , and the people demand it. Messrs. Matthews and Bouknight, vo of the leading merchants of eesville, have started to build a ,rge two story store house to be uilt of brick. The foundation has pen laid. The Leesville Star, a newspaper sued semi-monthly, with Mr. E. J. oggans as editor, has made its apearance. An effort is being made > start a weekly newspaper in the >wn in the near future.

A Grand Feature Of Hood's Sarsaparill is that while purifies the blood and sends it mrsing through the veins full of chness and health, it also imparts e\v life aiul vigor to every function f the body.

We believe that there is a general jeling that the opponents of the adlinistration will not put out a ticket 1 this campaign. The fact that the pponents arc not organized portends neir disintegration as a party. Without leaders no party can long vast. Without the idea or the ream of being rewarded by office, obody is willing to undertake the xpensive and thankless office of larslialing a forlorn hope. The opposition being in a hopeless linority, we may therefore expect lany others to do as Ex-Comptroller leneral John Sam Yeruer has done -go into the ranks of the dominant lenient. If they can't control the storm, iiey wiil go with it, in the hope of iving it direction.

Mass.: " I had kidney trouble and severe pains in my back, which was brought about by a cold contracted while in camp at Linnfield in 1802. I have been troubled more or less since that time and have been unable to do any heavy wt.rk, much less any lifting. I received only temporary relief from medicines. Last spring 1 had an attack of the grip, which left me with A Bad Cough, Very Weak physically, In fact my system was completely rundown. I tried a bottle of Hood's Sarsaparilla and it made me feel so much better that I continued taking it. and have taken six bottles.

First., we had the Hollers or Straightouts in 1800, then we had Alliancemen and Ocalaites. Now we have Third Partyites. If all these degrees of Democracy are to be required to slough off from the real and true Democracy, as we may see it. there will be few left. Not enough to keep watch over the old corpse for one night. The State Democratic Committee did right 111 not excluding any from the Democratic ranks who are willing to pledge fidelity to the party and to support the nominees at the polls. What this country most needs is peace. As between the aspirants for office, there is not enough for the people to become excited over, and we think that General Duller is to be congratulated in his course in looking for votes where they are to be found. We presume that he lit tered his true convictions on the questions which were propounded to him. That being true, he has a right to the respect of the people. Ji then, he and Governor Tillman hold the same views, it will be merely a preference between the men. If Senator Butler had chosen to antagonize the dominant element, it would have been useless for him to stand for re-election. His true friends, while being disappointed at his course, will find that he is working for the office in his own peculiar way, and they should not forsake him because he wants to get into Governor Tillman's preserves. * + Snatched frcm Death.
