WHY NOT ALL THE WAY?
^7e are glad that Hon. C. M. Eflrd
has spoken with no uncertain sound
on the subject he discusses elsewhere
in this issue. Iiis reflections on the
situation which confront the Deiuo?thia
Sfflfn tnJnv
icruLIVJ pin bj au ^
are in tbe main timely and bis
position is well taken. His rea- |
son3 for making the fight for silver
within the party lines are un !
questionably strong and will be very
bard for tbe advocates of a bolt to
suece s Y'lly controvert. The}- are
convincing in their logic and bis
arguments glitter and sparkle with
truths so patent that even be who
runneth cannot faii to see and un
derstand. As far as he went Senator
Efird has placed himself upon
record as being opposed to bolting
tbe party, or at least until the nomi
nation is made for President at Chicago,
and even then, should the nomination
be adverse to silver, he has
doubts about the wisdom of bolting,
for he says, in substance that, should
foil <vf it
IliC OU Y Cl iui)U(;ou At*** ~ ? 0
~ will be tieae enough to consider what
? to do under the circumstances, and
right here he breaks somewhat the
p force of his argument and diverts
from the plain and well trodden path
of duty to his party.
If a man participates in the ae[
. tion of a Democratic club, and assists
by his influence and his vote, through
[ party organizations, in sending delegates
to Chicago, he is morally bound
to suppoit the action of that convention
whether his views are adopted
or not. To do otherwise would be
in plain unvarnished language, political
treachery and nothing else can
be made out of such action. In tins
matter there never was nor never will
be a time to "think about it" after
action is taken by the National
convention. Somewhere we have
I :**
read that he who hesitates is lost,
and as the truths contained in the
: sentence are so appropriate in this
c mnection they convey an addi
tional emphasis. Democrats, do not
pause even to hesitate. The path
of duty lays plain before you. It has
been blazed out by your fathers and
( fathers farthers. Go into the paity
organization with the purpose of
committing the party to silver, aud
having made the fight, be\ firm aEd
i immovable iu your determination to
suf^port the action of the convention.
But what is the use of talking
about a bolt when we have the cool,
calm pnd deliberate opinion of Senator
Bnrd ar.d other conspicious silver
lights that free silver will control the
National convention? If this be true,
and we do net doubt the correctness
~ 1 * 4
of til? assertion, wny hoc come out
fearlessly in urging Democrats to
turn out to their club meetings and
advisiDg them to be faithful in their j
:
allegiance to the party no matter
what the result of its action might
be at Chicago?
This paper has never knowingly |
misrepresented Senator Tillman on
any position he has taken in reference j
to public affairs. His positions are !
clearly defined and expressed in such
unmistakable language that only his
bitterest political enemies can misrepresent
him. So when he advised
his friends to bolt the party in the
?vent the Chicago convention refused
a silver platform and a nominee in j
sympathy with silver, we thought I
he meant exactly what he said, and 1
not being in the inner circle of his
confidence, our ignorance is, there- I
fore pardonable. Being by education,
inclination and principle opposed
to his advice to bolt the party,
we attacked his position as being untenable,
unwise and fraught with
grave daDger to the silver interest.
The News and Courier editorily
says. "The table of "comparative
mill purchases is particularly interesting
for us. South Carolina heads
the list with plenty of margin to
spare. The record, in the order of
the number of bales purchased, is as
follows:
South Carolina, *220,078; Georgia,
143,386; North Carolina, 131,748;
Alabama, 44'0S1: Tennessee, 16,464:
I Virginia, 16,0S4; Mississippi, 11,66*2:
Kentucky, 10,415: Louisiana, 7,439;
Texas, 5,751; Arkansas, 1,570"
Yet we are told by t'ue News and
Courier, Columbia State. Greenville
News and otherrabid anti papers tbat
the rule of Tillman and the Reform
wiDg cf the Democratic party had
been injurious to the prosperity of
ths State. In the language of a
western* poet "Great God, what a
wboppeil
Sally, Democrats.
ITo tbe .Editor of the Dispatch;,
If you will be kind enough to
give me a short space in your eolniuDS,
I will say a word on our present
political situation. The point
.about which I will speak is, as to
what action we should take in regard
to the National Democratic
contention. I have always found
it the part of wisdom, in order to
bring about any result through political
chaunels, to adopt tho widest
and best course to accomplish those
results. We cau only be guided in
human secular affairs by duty,
reason and experience. "What is the
experience of the Democrats in North
Carolina, Georgia, Alabama and Texas,
who left the Democratic party iu
1S30 and made their light under a
new party Hag? "What have they
accomplished for the principles for
which they fought ' How many
Alliance Congressmen have they?
Kow many have we? In North Carolina,
by combining with the Kepub
licans, they have secured some local
victories. (How a free silver man
can co-operate with a Southern or
Eastern Republican, dear money
people?I cannot comprehend.) Iu
Georgia. Tom Watson, one among
the brightest stamp speakers the
South has produced, was elected to
Congress so lo.ig as he made bis
fight in the Democratic paity. So
soon as he went out, he was beaten,
and the country at large has lost
his valuable services in the hall of
Congress in favor of national legislation
for the benefit of the agriculturist.
He has seen his mistake,
but it is now too late.
In 18(J0 we made our fight within
the Democratic party. To-day we
have accomplished all we demanded
in local legislation, and besides have
maintained in the State, a party in
which white men settle their own
differences among themselves, and
the majority govern. 1 his condition
(the rule of the majority of white
men) will continue if we maintain,
our present organization. Why cant
we make the same fight in the national
Democratic party.
Senator Tjllman is making a tour
of the Western States. Many papers
say he is launching a Presidential
boom. I say his primary object, and
I know what I am talking about, is
to arouse in the Democrats and
silver men in the West such enthu
siasm as will enable them to capture
the National Democratic convention i
?the same tactics as used in this
State in 1890 to get control of the
Democratic organization.
If we have succeeded here in this
way why try unknown paths in
National politics until we find this
method will not avail? If we are to
have a silver President, he must be
elected upon nomination by the
Democratic party. It is not an
assured fact that he can be thus
elected?but I say this is the only
hope.. J would gladly welcome a
contest simple and pure between
silver and gold, but in this country
such cannot be had under present
political conditions.
Then I am of the opinion that the
safest course for us to adopt is to
attend the club meeting. Send good
men to the county conventions; let
these send good men to the State
convention, let it inturn send good
men to the Chicago convention, on
an unequivocal silver platform, demanding
a national silver platform, i
and nominee. My present judge* |
ment is that the silver rnfcn will
control the National convention, j
p
but if wo should divide and have
a contesting delegation, it may put
a different face on the matter. Then
I am in favor of every man doing his
duty in our present organization
and not crossing the bridge before
j we get to it. Let us make an honest
effort to get a silver man nominated !
by the Chicago convention, and if
we fail it is time enough to decide
what is best to do under the surrounding
circumstances. No such strong
effort has* been made. In 1892
many silver Democrats stayed at
[ home in the North and West and
allowed the convention to be run J
by those not in sympathy with them. !
If you do likewise now by staying
away from the clubs certain defeat \
must come to the silyer men. Dp !
| not follow this example but go into J
| your clubs, and make their action
! you. Let whatever is done be done
by the rank and file of the party and
not by a few leaders. I think it j
unwise to send a delegation to Chicago
instructed to vote under certain
circumstances. Cut if such course
is to be adopted, let it be done by
| the people. Tillman has been attacked
! and frequently misrepresented
in his present position, but you pjust
remember that he advises every man
! to attend his club meeting, and have
j the whole people to act and s^nd
j together in whatever is done on the
20th April, 1806.

Eeiscc ratio Club Meetings.
Oa Saturday, tlic second day of
May, tho Democratic clubs are requested
to meet for re-organization.
No He form Democrat should fail to
go to his club meeting. It will not
do to break ranks this election year.
To do so will be to disorganize the
Itefonuers, and the farmers' government
of South Carolina will forever
be a thing of the past.
Opposed to the Reformers are the
'Lily white' Republicans. This
wing of the g. o. p. iu Soulh Carolii a
is made up of sore head politicians,
uncompromising "Straight outs/'
antiquated Scott and Moses Republicans
aud negroes, all clamoring for
the spoils of office. The leaders of
this moDgrel conglomeration mostly
live in tho towns and cities and by
easy methods eat, drink, and dress
on the labor of the farmers.
Reformers, this horde of carmorants
are after you. Their purpose
is to take control of the State government
and, thus to more easily
control you and get your hard earnings
for nothing. Please stick a pin
rigLt here: Republicanism iu South
Carolina means negroism. Do you
believe this? It is true. Do you
wish to be ruled by negroes who
will eventually kick out the "Lily
white" renegades and take all the
offices to themselves ?
Reformers, will you submit to
negro rule f You will have it to do
unless you turn out in full force at
your club meetings and keep in full
foice your State Democratic organizations.
This is Senator Tillman's
advice to us and the more we study
the true situation the more fully are
we convinced that this is at this
time the only true and safe course
for us to pursue to retain the State
government, where it of right prop;
erty belongs.
In 1890 Ben 8 advice was good
and right, and it was through his
lead that the Reformers wrecked
the State government from the
hands of the old regime, and every
person who now holds an office
under the Reform government of
South Carolina from Congressman
down through the State and county
offices, owe their places and emoluments
of office to the successful
fight made by Ben Tillman in 1890.
Yet some of these office holders now
claim to know more than Tillman,
and are even trying to advise him.
Ben is not iufalliable but he may be
as nearly, if not more so, than these
aftermath wise acres.
We want more money, and all the
gold in the world is not of sufficient
volume to do the business of the
United States alone. How then, can
we have it? Only as Tillman says,
by the free coinage of gold and silver
and the issuranco of treasury notes
by the government only, with a banking
system that will prevent the congestion
and concentration of the
currency in the cities to the detriment
of the country.
In the West, in the South and in
the North the friends of free silver
and a greater volume of currency
are to be found, and they are found
I among the Democrats, Itepublicans
! and Populists; indeed the West is
on fire on this great issue, and our
Ben is out there adding fuel and
with his pitchfork is stirring the
1 o iring flames. God bless his efforts
and crown them with success.
Our State Executive Committee
acted wisely by leaving it to the
clubs to make known their wishes in i
reference to the course our delegates
to Chicago are to pur?ue in case a
single gold standard platform is
adopted, with Cleveland or some
gold bug as our candidate for President.
Can we rote for Cleveland or
any gold dollartor? No, no. What
then shaT we do? Why follow
Ben Tillman, and with a
union of friends from all the old
pn ties for free silver and a greater
volume of currency, we shall elect
our President by an overwhelming
majority. It is to be hoped that our
dubs will be fcerrd^from for free silver
and more money. These are my
views and I would bo pleased to
hear from others'on these issues.

Tha Teachers at Red Star Academy.
To the Editor of the Dispatch:
The Teachers' Association met at
the Red Star Academy, April 11,
1896. The President, Sidney J.
Derrick, being absent, Vice President
S. S. Linder, called the meeting to
order, which was opened with prayer
by S. R. Bridges of the Leesville
oollege. An address of welcome was
made by Enoch Hite and this was
responded to by S. S. Lindler.
This meeting may be truly called
a substitute affair, as there was not
one present of those who were ap
pointed on the program to lead in
the disoussions. The program was
adhered to and all members present
manifested a lively interest in the
discussion of the difierent' subjects.
The President appointed the following
