The Lexington Dispatch G. M. HARMAN, Editor and Publisher LEXINGTON, S. C., WEDNESDAY, JULY 11, 1894. 1MSWTOW -n-RMOCRATIC CLUES. If the re-organization of the Reform Democratic clubs throughout the State and county, separate and distinct from the regular Democratic clubs, is solely for the purpose of looking after and protecting the interest of the issues fathered and advocated by the March convention of 1890, and those incorporated in the State Democratic platform by the convention of 1892, and to which the Reformers of the State stand pledge and are responsible for their success or failure, they are timely and proper and their thorough reorganization should be encoura ge by every legitimate mean3 at uui command. Experience has taught us that we have wily and almost never sleeping opponents who are a3 keenly watching every move upon the political checker board as a hawk watches a chicken and are as equally prepared to take advantage at a moments warning of every mistake and error made by the Reformers, and we are admon ished that "the price of liberty is eternal vigilance,'' hence it is the patriotic duty of every Reformer to see by organization and otherwise, that no advantage is taken of them. To imagine for a moment that the Conservatives are not well and 1-1- Tarl ia ft crrftVA and ItHOrUUgUij iw M . fatal mistake and we should not al low ourselves to be lulled to sleep by any such delusion. So well are they organized for the campaign that we believe we risk nothing in asserting that should circumstances be such as to give them the least encouragement to do so, up to within twenty-four hours of the general election, orders could be issued from their headquarters and an almost unanimous Conservative vote could be polled for or against any measure. The only thing wanting the oDDort unity which presents ?? 4 A the faintest ray of hope for the success of their efforts for them to develop into active and aggressive opponent of all the reforms now in force. It is only through the force of circumstances that they are apparently so passive and indifferent as to the outcome of the campaign now upon us, who, like a sleeping volcano, are in position to spring into activity and with fire and brimstone. ovemower the majority with a minority vote. Such being the case, it is only acting the part of prudence and wisdom for the Reformers to be in a position to meet any emergency which might arise with a well organized and disciplined force. In saying this much it is but just and proper to say that we impugn the motives of no man. We claim and exercise the right to do ?- +v;t^lrinrr anr? fn form our UlU UTTU Uluuuug W?W own conclusions therefrom as our intelligence and the lights before us may suggest. We cheerfully and rillingly concede the same right to others. Because others cannot see things as we do and differ with us in regard to questions of public policy, is no reason why they are dishonest and desire the nation's overthrow and the subjucation of the people in the bonds of serfdom. The Reformers are contending for well defined principles calculat ed, if made laws, to remove the heavy burdens under which the people are suffering. Believing in these princi pies we are in sympathy with the Reform movement, but, while this is* ' mi a 1 j til? case, we cannot nor win not ienu ouraidand assistance to objects tending to the advancement of one candidate in the Keform ranks before the people in the primary, over another: hence if it is the object in the formation of these clubs to champion the cause of any particular candidate, or set of candidates, their re-organization should be dis couraged. BEARING FRUIT. Elsewhere in this issue we publish an article undv,r the caption of "A very dastardly outrage," taken from the Edgefield Chronicle, an out and out dyed in the wool anti paper, aBd for this reason the remarks convey a . deep significance and peculiar force. The outrages complained of are but the logical result of the moral and civil support and encouragement cnvcm fr> violate the disnensarv act in keeping blind tigers, and we are only surprised that there have been no more similar or even worse outrages perpetrated. It is a grave mistake and a serious blunder to encourage men to violate law because there is no telling what the end may be, and besides it lowers the moral tone of the community so giving encouragement and uproots the foundation upon which our social, political and civil government are built. Anarchy, socialism and murder are the legitimate offsprings of teaching men to disobey the constituted and lawful authority established for the protection of the life and ! property of the cititizen. We are g]ad to see that our Edgefield contemporary, at least, has awakened to a realization of the dangers into which we have been drifting and has sounded the alarm. The Prohibitionists should heed the warning contained in this outrage. It shows to them in a manner not to be mistaken what treatment they may expect in allying them * ? -in <1 selves witn tins class to aeieai me enforcement and operation of the dispensary law. We think that no serious attention should be given to Senator Butler's request to have equal representation on the Board of Managers of the primary election. We consider such a request, whether intend so or not, as a reflection upon the fairness and honesty of the men to be appointed, The precedent should never have been established in the first place, but as long as it has been done, there is no better time to end the silly practice than now, aDd theffrequest of Senator Butler affords the opportunity. The jury in Judge Paynes court returned a verdict July 3d, in I Chicago, deciding that Eugene Pindergast, the assassin of Mayor Carter Harrison, was not insane. If no other legal technicality intervenes, the assassin will be hanged July 13. The Prohibitionists are organizing in several counties in the State. Their purpose seems to be to go into the campaign with the determination to win. The Discovery Saved His Life. Mr. G. Caillouette, Druggist, Beaversvilie, 111., says: "To Dr. King's New Discovery I owe my life. Was taken with La Grippe and tried all the physicians for miles about, but of no avail and was given up and told I could not live. Having Dr. j King's New Discovery in my store I sent for a bottle and began its use and from the first dose began to get better, and after using three bottles was up and about again. It is worth its weight in gold. We won't keep store or house without it.*' Get a free trial bottle at the Bazaar. A Few Thoughts and Other Things. To the Editor of the Dispatch: The weather still remains on the dry side of the fence. The community has been visited during the past week by some local rains, but not sufficiently to be generally satisfactory. Old corn has suffered from the drought very much. Cotton is backward in growth but is looking o. k. Messrs. F. W. Shealy & Curtis Hallman of Summit, with their irU v/irV* * rv An ILllCOJLliLi^ UUtJJLU^ iiU ? V j UC V Jk/UOOV/U through. They get along at galloping speed as crops are short, and you know "a short horse is soon curried." Well, the campaign in our State is again open, and judging from the initial meetings, it will out rival the one two years ago for indecency, blackguardism and disgrace to the State. I would like to keep up with the proceedings of the meetings, but I am at a loss to know where to turn in search of an unbiased paper on which to depend. If I read the Register, I am constrained to believe that Butler is only a "bullyragger" and speaks, only insults; if I read the State, I must believe that Tillman is the grandest scoundrel and veriest blackguard of our time. The Register makes every meeting a Tillman walk over, and the State makes every one a perfect round of applause for Butler. I think I shall try "Old Granny," maybe it will do a little better than the others, as I find it is cooling off considerably and is not fond of rushing into extremes as it used to be. Coming down to facts, I doubt very mucn tne propriety 01 bringing the campaign down to the plane upon which our campaigns are pitched. No good can come of it no way, and it gives occasion to make the political breach even wider than before. Our constitution requires that our Senators shall be chosen by the Legislatures of the several States, so I cannot see how stumping the State can do any good, unless it were to influence the voter in his choice for Representative. Speaking of the newspapers the time has been when a newspaper was a public educator and it was of some service and benefit to a man to read them, but in these latter days you can scarcely find a political paper but which is a breeder of dissension and strife, and tends to drive the people farther apart and make them deeper enemies, instead of trying to bring them together and educate them up to an unpolluted and unbiased political status. Our politics are really in a worse condition now than four years ago and the papers, in a great degree, are responsible for it. It is all most a lasting disgrace for an honest, upright man to stump the State now on account of the vile stuff indulged in by the opposing factions. Let South Carolina remember that she is making history for herself every day, and every time she allows her dignity to be trampled upon by unserunolous seekers for office, who make all interests inferior to their personal ends, just so many dark blots will be found upon the pages of her history which time cannot efface, and which will always remain as an evil page for future generations to read. Let us hope that before this campaign is finished the crisis will have been passed and all factions will have understood one another, and all will settle down into the regular channels of the political stream and pass on into the smooth and quiet ocean, upon whose bosom our grand old ship of State may sail proudly and peacefully, untrammelled by the adverse winds of faction and unbuffeted by the mad waves of political passion.

The fact that two certain citizens of our \ ! tow a. among man y others nr"> imt friends | | of the Blind Tiger. has drawn upon tiivri i | the wrath and the attempted in*n <s of < u - j j tain dastardly miscreants -,>.ud no le? 1 | ignorant than dastardly. On Fnesdav | ; night ot last - etk, the homes <?; th- si- two j ! citizens were visited by these miscreant.-. j I who, in one case, when: tin- husband and j son ol the family were both ale;. :,t, in- 1 vaded the front piazza and shook lie wi i dow bliuds. In the oilier ens. th"> en- | tered the liower garden and di-cliarf.nl \ pistols until the volley was ternh < au-1 | alarming In both cases tbe\ i.-it behind, j them a board or sign, wit an inscription j iutending to insult the head ot the btmil-. j These inscriptions revealed the fict that j enmity to the Blind Tiger was the sin j sought to be punished. The idiotic igno- j ranee of the whole proceeding was onl\ i . equaled by its shameless cowardice. On i ' Saturday afternoon last, two while men. | upon pretty strout affidavits, were arrested | hv nnr Town Council, charged with com- I , I mitting this outrage. Alter remaining in j * jail throughout Sunday, these two men ha! j ! a hearing before the Council <?u Monday | ( morning. Pleading that thev could n?>r i then and there produce th-ir witnesses j r the Council bailed them in the sum ot $ .0 j | each, to appear for municipal trial on Fii- i 1 day afternoon next. Iuasmuch as we hear * that these men aver that they can prove their innocence, we do not mention their A names. The worst feature 11 the outrage j t perpetrated by the miscreants, is that the;. ' f brightened more than one delicate worn mi | j almost to death. For this they dcserv- no j ^ bounded ccntempt and very severe punish j , ruent. 1 III _ Sunday Sch:cl Convention. i The Sunday school convention ot tlm j * j Joint Conference ot ilie Kvaugeiic.ii Luthj eran Church, will meet at Futon, Lexington countv, S.
