CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION. !
If our memory is not at fault we ;
promised through these columns as j
far back as 1892, during a controversy
with Mr. Theodore Hoi zhauser,
that if it ever was attempted to call
a constitutional convention without
assurances being given that the work
of this convention would be referred
back to the people for ratification or
rejection, we would oppose the proposition
for the calling of such a j
convention. "We now redeem that
promise.
In the first place we have always
been and always will be unalterably
opposed to the idea of delegating
the right to use the elective franchise
4/-> otitt cot nf mpn nndpr anv circum
W v v* ^ stances,
no matter how deep in the |
science of constitutional laws they
might be. "We claim to have the intelligence
to think, and from those
thoughts to draw our own conclusions
and form our judgment from
which we can act as it may dictate
and conceive to be for the best interest
of the whole peojde. "We cheerfully
accord this right to others and
demand that it be given them
whether they be our political friends
or whether they be our political foes.
According to our judgment the
greatest and grandest achievement
of the Tillman reforma'ion is the
teaching of the people to do their
own thinking on questions of a poli- j
tical nature effecting all the interests '
of the people, as well as those of j
generations yet unborn, and giving
them the opportunity to personally j
pvnress their choice for men and j
measures at the ballot box uninflu- !
enced by the wire pulling of politi- J
cians and untrammelled by the cum- J
bersome and disreputable practices j
of the convention system. To deny
\ ' the people this right now will dim the
lustre which is now and ever will
cluster around the policies of the
Tillman regime and it is virtually an
admittance, and will be regarded as
such in the vears to come, that the
people are not to be trusted with a j
voice in their own government.
Another reason why we oppose i
the convention, as it is proposed to j
to be held, is that it is the most im- |
portant issue with which the people j
has had to deal since the days of reconstruction.
An issue before which
all other issues pales into insignificance
in point of importance, even
that of white supremacy becomes
secondary to it when the risks and

misuse and abuse of a body whose
authorotity is only delegated but
whose only limit to indict great j
wrongs upon the people, if it is to |
the interest of members of the con- j
vention to betray the trust reposed J
in them, is only restricted by their j
wills and opportunity, for, the re- |
straining influences of an appeal to |
the people for ratification being withdrawn,
the doors are to fraud are
thrown wide open, and the barter of
the rights, the life, the liberty and
property of the cit izen invited. The
State constitution is an instrument j
which guarantees to every citizen j
certain rights and privileges in the j
pursuit of profit and pleasure which i
no statutory law can abridge or j
take away from him, and without the |
power to exercise this right freemen
five rt>lpcr?fpf] to the condition of serfs
&
and slaves; therefore, this instrument j
is too sacred and too dear to the
hearts erf the people to be impiously
or hastily tampered with by a re- j
stricted number of persons. It is j
such an instrument that the work of ;
amendment, abridgement or change I
of i's provisions should invite the co- j
operation of all the wisdom of the j
State, irrespctive of factional lines, j
elicit the widest possible discussion
and the most thorough education of
* the masses on the merits or demerits
of the proposed amendments, restric
tions or change, and no better way j

found than by submitting amend- j
rnents to the people at every State i
election and have them discussed pro j
and con from every stump and |
around every fireside.
It is said that the i rue blue Indepen- J
dents will support Sampson Pope for I
Governor at the November election.
Let the Reformers be on their guard j
onrl ota ta fViA nnlla ind vofp the I
v r
whole Democratic ticket for Governor
down.
A great hurrah has been made
about men being disfranchised by
being denied the right to vote in the
late primary. If there is a single
man who went to the polls and
offered to vote, and was denied that
right by the managers or anyone else,
we have yet to hear of him. Those
men who stayed away from the polls
and refrained from voting, in order
that they might be free to take part !
in an Independent movement, dis- j
franchised themselves and they have i
no one to blame for it but themselves.
That's the long and short of it and
they have no right to be whining like
children now.
THE TWO CONVENTIONS.
The convention of the Regular i
Democrats and that of the Indepen- j
dents have met and adjourned. That j
of the former adopting a platform ;
broad, strong and liberal enough
for all Democrats who truly desire j
to see the breach in the party healed j
instead of widened, to stand without
the surrender of a siDgle principle;
the latter accomplished nothing, j
without it was in succediug to I
make "confusion worse confounded.''
With the result of both some j
are pleased and some displeased. |
The decision of the latter in taking !
no action in opposition, if they are j
sincere, to the majority of the peo J
pie, was for the best interest of the j
State. The Democracy of this State !
cannot afford to divide. There is too j
much danger for such an experiment !
to be tried. Party unity is absolutely
essential to good government. It is a ;
right which all citizens are justified j
and should exercise in differing as to !
men and measure up to the very last j
moment of the dav on which the j
primary election is held, but when {
the result is declared let us stand j
uncovered in the presence of the i
people and bow in humble submission
to the will of the majority
as expressed through the ballot
box. We acknowledge that might
does not make right, neither does
the weak make right, and it is possible
for the minority to be in the
wrong. In matters of this kind
i r. f*i r* r\$ foiVnoCC
We II2USL e&tri'l'iae a. o^imi V/J. muuvuu
and sound judgment, and strife and
bitterness should not mar our fairness
nor warp our judgment to the end
that both wings of the party might
flop together again in unison.
It is possible, and if it will be a
balm to some seared consciences we
will admit, that the Reform party
might have made mistakes, and j
where is the party that has not, but
the wonder is that more mistakes |
have not been made when we remember
what bitter opposition this Administration
has had tocontend with.
We assert without fear of successful
contradiction that Tillman has never
during his four years of office, taken
one step along the line of reform but
what some one has always be found
to take out an injunction and some I
judge ready to issue the writ, in or- !
der to run the government to expense ;
and thus prevent a reduction of
"'m o/^ntrn-iliah tho downfall of !
UiAti? l/V vmw v%v .. ? |
Tillman and the restoration of their
faction to power. But Tillman's position
has almost been invariably sustained
even by a prejudiced court at
the final hearing of the cause. Had
the present Administration not been
impeded and these obstacles placed
in the way of an economical administration
of State affairs, our people
would have today been on better
terms and the Reform movement
would have been fairly weighed in
the balances and received the plaudit
of well done or been condemned according
as it redeemed or failed to I
redeem its pledges. j
Admitting, if you please, that hard
things were said at the beginning of
the reformation, but this does not j
justify nor excuse the opposition for j
continually and eternally abusing '
those who might happen to differ
with them on men and measures and
in doing so they are responsible for
the division now existing. The
monumental blunder tho opposition !
made was the failure of the minority
to accept defeat gracefully and fall
in line so that they would be in a
position to be of some service to the
State. Some of them would j
have been entrusted with a responsi- j
ble office and been useful, but in j
standing aloof they have put them- i
selves m a position to be or no use.
Nov? that we have but one ticket
in the field let us all go to work for
the success of the ticket and after
the election to reunite the part}*.
It is indeed gratifying to every
true son of South Carolina, that even
at the last moment it may have been,
wisdom, common sense and prudence
won the hour in the late Independent
convention in Columbia,^ and those
who would have plunged the State J
into deeds of violence and bloodshed
hitherto unknown and irrevocably
divided the Democratic party to satisfy
their personal spleen and prejudices
and to gratify their desire for
office, have been terribly rebuked
even though they were in a majority,
by the failure of the convention to
put out a full State ticket, and we
trust that the lesson taught them ?
that there is no room for an Independent
movement in South Carolina,
for an Independent ticket nor will
one be toerated under any circumstances,
no matter how deep the
greivences may be, will prove beneficial,
and tend toward cooling oft*
their hot tempers and be the means
of making them act with more rea
sou and wisdom than tbev have heretofore
done.
There is now running in this State
sixty-eight dispensaries and the
devil only knows how many Blind
Tigers. Drop the profits in the dispensaries
and you will drive the
tigers out.
The Independents at their late
| caucus-convention conceded their
I impossibility of carrying old Lexing:
ton. In this they were right.
BMHMBBEBBBaHBaMaHBanani
It has leaked out that a deal between
the Independents and Republicans
was attempted at the late con- s
vention, whereby the negro Murry, ; Y
the Republican nominee for Congress I
from the First District, was to be j a
sacrificed on the altar of prejudice j s
by the Republicans supporting j ]
Elliott, the Democratic nominee; and ^
Dr. Stokes, the Democratic nominee J g
from this District, was to meet a sim- j 1
ilar fate at the hands of some of the ! i
Independents who, as the rumor ; t
goes, pledged themselves to support j
Braytou, the Republican nominee. I ?
It is alledged that the refusal of the j ?
Sumter Conservatives to perjure ; j
themselves by going back, on their |
oath taken at the primary election, i t
the deal fell through. The position I (
of the Conservatives of hat county is J <
commendable and their avowed deter- j :
mination to support the regular Demo- j ?
cratic nominees, including Dr. Stokes, ! j
practically insures his election in spite j (
of any and all opposition which might i
develop. j j
....... J
United States Senator David B.
Hill, was on last Wednesday unani
mously nominated as a candidate for
Governor of New York by the Demo- I
crats of that State.
It is now thought that the Repub- j
licans of this State will put out a full |
State ticket. The executive committee
ni6t yesterday to discuss the ,
advisability of doing so.
Liter?The committee has met ,
and decided to make no nominations.
Deafness Cannot be Cured.
By local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
Deafness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused
by an inflamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube gets inflamed
you have a rumbling sound or im
perfect hearing, and when it is enTicofi-iosc
i<a flip rpsnlt.
HI CiJ1 W.VOCVt <11 1IVUU ,
and unless the iuflammatiou can be {
taken out and this tube restored to
its normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out of
ten are caused by catarrh, which is
nothing but an inflamed condition of
the mucous surface.
We will give One Hundred Dol- j
lars for any case of Deafness (caused j
by catarrh) that cannot be cured by j
Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars,

A Disastrous Fire.
| Mr. John A. Boland, of Little
I Mountain, this county, had the mis|
fortune to sustain a heavy loss by
| fire on the night of the 27th, ult.
| At about 10 o'clock fire was discov!
ered at his place of business, and be- I
| fore it could be extinguished two
J gins, engines and boiler, cotton
j presses, planing machine, saw mill,
j etc., together with the buildings were
! consumed. His loss was complete as
there was no insurance. The origin j
of ihe fire is wrapped in mystery,
Mr. Boland was well fixed up and
his loss is quite a blow to him. We
can sympathize with him and can
! only encourage him to cheer up and
! press ahead.

Don't Ssll Your Cotton.
"We call especial attention to the j
card of Messrs. Hull & Tobin, cotton i
factors, Augusta, Ga., in which they j
make an exceedingly liberal offer to j

| enable them to raise money to meet j
' Dressing- obligations and at the same j
X w ~

prices can be obtained.

Ail of One Mind.
There is one question on which the
j Conservatives and Reformers can,
j will and do heartily agree, and that |
I is the prosperity of the town. On this j
j question our people are a unit and
I any industry, manufacturing interj
est, or enterprise of commercial or

Lexington village and improve her
1 financial, commercial and farming interest,
will received their undivided

needed in every home and so admirably
adapted to the purpose for which
it is intended, as Chamberlain's Pain
Balm. Hardly a week passes but
some member of the family has need
of it. A toothach or headache may
be cured by it. A touch of rheumatism
or neuralgia quieted. The
severe pain of a burn or scald
promptly relieved and the sore healed
in much less time than when medicine
has to be sent for. A sprain
may bo promptly treated before inflammation
sets in, which insures a
cure in about one-third of the time
otherwise required. Cuts and bruises
should receive immediate treatment
before the pails become swollev,
which can only be done when Pain
Balm is kept at hand. A sore that
may be cured before it becomes serious.
A troublesome corn may be
removed by applying it twice a day
for a week or two. A lame back may
be cured and several days uf valuable
time saved or pain in the side or
chest relieved without paying a doctor
bill. Procure a 50 cent bottle at j
once and you will never regret it. j
