IEYPOCEACY, THY NAME IS REPUBLICANISM.
Elsewhere in this issue will be
found the labored apology of Col. D.
J. Knotts for affiliating with the
' Black Republican" party, in which
he attempts to justify his desertion
from the party of his fathers and
the only party representing AngloSaxon
civilization, progress and supremacy.
In his defence he advances
reasons which are "as baseless as the
fabrication of a dream," and as erroneous
as they are baseless.

from the time when Father Adam
' sought to excuse his act of wrong
doing in the Garden of Eden by tell
ing Jehovah, that "the woman thou
* gavest me to be with me, she gave
me of the tree, and I did eat," down
to the time when Col. Knottsgaveas
his reason through the Lexington
Dispatch, in justification of his political
course, that the Democratic partyis
one of incapacity and is non progressive,
men have made excuses in
justification of doing that wbich reason
and their intelligence tells them is
wrong. Whenever the conscience of
man begins to prick him for doing a
wrong act that moment he seeks to
ease his mind by making excuses, and
when he begins to do so it is a safe
rule to conclude that he is not altogether
satisfied with his act. To illus
trate. Judas Iscariot,'sought to justify
the betrayal of his Master by making
excuses. Scarcely had the dagger of
Brutus entered the body of his friend
Ceasar than words of excuses for his
cowardly deed began falling from his
lips, but he was not justified in staining
his hands with the life blood of
his acknowledged friend. Benedict
Arnold made excuses for his treachery
to the American cause, but they
availed him nothing. Not all the ex
cases of Aaron Burr to j ustify himself
fin his attempt to disrupt the government
and set up another, did him no
good, for that act made him an outcast
and his reproach name a among
men. So Col. Kaotts will find that
no amount of excuses will justify his
present political course in leaving
th9 Democratic party.
It would take more time and space
than we have at our command to
notice all of the excuses, or "reasons"
as he styles them, to justify himself,
therefore, we shall only briefly notice
a few of them.
As long as the white men are a
unit in politics there is no danger of
- negro domination, but the moment
there is a division and one faction
goes coqueting with the brother in
black and makes of him their bed
fellow in return for his vote to elevate
that faction into power you
place the balance of power in his
hand and he would be a big fool inif

vantage. But even in this emergency,
Anglo-Saxon intelligence will
exert itself as it did in the enactment
of the registration and the
eight ballot box law, but the remedy
is worse than the disease. Then, how
much more danger there is to white
supremacy when white men teaches
the negro his strength and joins him
in his fight for supremacy.
The Kepublic&n party stands for
centralization, and in this respect it
is opposed to a popular form of
government. Under its doctrine of
centralization the encroachment of
the Federal judiciary upon the constitutional
rights of the States is
alarming in the extreme and if allowed
to go unchecked will eventually
overthrow American institutions and
% lead to the establishment some other
form of government repugnant to
freedom loving Americans. The Republican,
as now organized, is known
as the "Black" party. It was form
ally organized at Philadelphia, June
18, 1856, by the nomination of John
?. C. Fremont for the Presidency, and
was composed largely of disgruntled
politicians, Whigs, abolitionists and
a very few patriotic men. It was
conceived in dishonor and born in ha.
tred toward the South and Southerns.
Its whole career has been parked by
the deepest enmity toward the South
and Southern interests. It has upheld
the North and has trodden down the
South, leaving behind as whitened
sepulchers to mark its progress stagnation
and death. Its policy is to
humiliate and degrade the South in
every conceivable manner. For this
mission it was conceived and for this
mission it lives today. Col. Knotts
told the truth when he said it was
a party of progress, but he failed to
state that in the South that progress
consisted in placing black heels upon
white necks; in subjugating free born I
American citizens with Federal bayonets
instigated by a devilish purpose
to insult the South. It is progressive
in '"force laws," fraud and hypoeracy.
This is not sentiment, neither is it
prejudice not yet theory, but it is
dhe record of the foot prints of the
"Republican party as they arc indelibly
stamped upon the pages of

Southern history. God save South
Carolina from such progression!
His arraignment of the Democratic
party cn the financial question j
is amusing, and his charge that it is
responsible for the financial depres- j
sion through which this country has j
passed, is simply preposterous. Thrt j
depression was limited only by the \
bounds of civilization. Tho people |
of every civilized government felt |
the effects to a greater or less de- j
gree. The history of panics in this j
country is evidence that it is swept I
, by one every few years and are gen- I
j erally brought on by wild specula- I
tions by the gamblers of Wall Street |
aided by the Republican party. Tiie
Democracy stands for honest money,
consisting of gold, silver, and paper,

the country has prospered under the
operations of these doctrines and
it is only by a return to these time
honored principles will peace and
prosperity smile upon our "suffering
country." Then, and not till then,
will the "sunlight of prosperity again
illumine our skies, and joy and gladness
will drive sorrow and disappointment
in exile from our homes."
There is one remarkable incident
which illuminates the darkness and
gloom of the financial depression
which has hung like a bird of evil
omen over our "suffering country."
It is a fact that in those States in

solute control of the government that
the effects of the panic were felt less
than in those States which are under
Republican administration. Under
Democratic government the Southern
States have made such rapid strides
in every department of her industries
as to excite the applause as well
as the jealousies of other more unfortunate
sections and at which the
world has looked on with wonder
and amazement. These are some of
the blessings which Democracy has
showered upon the Southern States,
and if this i3 "non progression,'' then
we want more of it.
"We are inclined tpward the doctrine
of protection. We are of the
opinion that American industry and
American labor should be fostered
and protected by the Government.
A protective tariff should be enacted
that will prevent the degredation of
labor, lowering the standard by bringing
it in competition with the cheap
pauper labor of Europe and Asia.
But the Republican party, with its
doctrine of hypocracv, deception and
fraud, has given us a tariff which
protects the rich manufacturer and
miner and at the sametime under the
workings of which it made it possible
for these same men to throttle
with a mailed hand the interest cf
labor; it has kept up the price of
manufactured goods in the interest
of the manufacturer, while the wages
of labor have steadily declined; it
has increased the cost of living by
permitting the formation of trusts,
monopolies and combines under the
so call tariff laws, to the injury of
labor; under the plea of protecting
American labor, it has enriched the
capitalist, and opened our ports for
the free, uninterrupted and unchecked
tide of foreign pauper imigrats
to supplant American labor at
wages which the latter cannot live.
This is the hollow mockery, the hideous
phantom and the delusive snare
that Col. Knotts has put up as his
god and has fallen down and worshipped.
The friendly relations between the
government of the United States and
that of Spain are becoming more and
more strained and the probability of
a war between this country and
Spain is great. The crisis is grave
and arises from the arrest of
American citizens on the high seas
and the summary manner in which
their tnai was conducted ana me
sentence of death passed upon them.
Later.?This morning's statement
is that Spain and the United States
have arrived at an amicable understanding
regarding the men captured
on the Competitor. The prisoners
will be tried again, this time by a
civil court under the provisions of
the existing treaties between the
countries.
As the opening of the present political
campaign is now at hand it is
timely for us to state that the Dispatch
will under no circumstance
advocate the claims of one candidate
before the people in the county primary
election oyer another. Communications
of a personal nature in
the interest of a candidate, or against
the candidacy of another, if published
at all, will b? charged for at
double our regular advertising rates,
strictly cash in advance and no deviation
from this rule for anybody or
linger any circumstance. As far as
we are concerned, every candidate
must stand or fall as he impresses the
people. Candidates' cards are iim- j
: ited to the simple announcement.
Indications sLgv that Illinois
Democrats favor the restoration of
silver to its rightful and.constitutional
place in the money of this country.
We cannot see any logical reason
why this should not be the case as it \
has had a place iu fhp ojoaej of this I
country, and under it the country j
has flourished and it may do so again. )

A EIFT IN THE CLOUDS.
Tko most hopeful sign that we
have jet sec-u of the two wings of the
i Democratic party coming together,
| was the presence of quite a number
I of auiis in attendance upon the late
! county convention. It shows, if it
: shows anything, that many of them
! attended their club meeting and parf
ticipated in the work of re organizaj
lion, and we take this as an unmisj
takabie harbinger of reconciliation,
j At no time since 1890 up to our
I last convention has the Conservative
element shown any disposition to
affiliate with the Reformers in poli[
tical measures and for them to assist
I in the re-organization of tlie county
f Democracy is a rift in the dark poli
tical skies which have hang over our
county and State so long and the approach
of the time when we will be
a re-united and happy family. It
was wrong to divide in the first place
*md it is greater wrong to remain estranged
longer. Nothing can be
accomplished by staying out of the
party but some good will result to
[ themselves, their party and their
State by coming together and working
in unison and harmony for their
common good and their common
interest.
We were indeed glad to see them
in the house of their fathers. They
had a right to be there and in exercise
of that right they broke away
those barriers which divided them
from their brother Democrats. Our
only regret is that more of them did
not turn out and participate in the
club meetings. We believe that before
the coming campaign is ended
all factional lines will be obliterated
and there will not longer be Antis or
Reformers but all be found fighting
under the banners of Democracy
and be known simply as Democrats.
Whv should they not do so? They
/ ' " _ " r
have to live under the same government
as the Reformers. It is as
much to their interest to have good
men in office who will economically
administer the affairs cfgovernment as
it i3 to the interest of any one. Then
- let us come together. For this result
we have been laboring for years,
and we confidently believe that our
labors will be crowned with success.
It seems that the policy of the
goldbugs, in order to control the
national convention, is to have as
many contested delegations from
silver States as possible, and note
from those in which the advocates of
the single standard are in the majority.
By this means, it is hoped to have a
majority of uncontested delegates
favorable to gold and with this majority
unseat as many of the silver
delegates as will give gold control of
the convention.
If this scheme is successfully
worked to defeat the free coinage of
silver, it may as well be known in advance
of the meeting of the convention
as after, that the action of the
convention will have no binding force
upon the friends of silver and that
they will be releived of all moral obligations
to support the nominess and
would be justified in repudiating its
action.

The gentle spirit of our aged
father, D. I. Fxiddell, passed away
very quietly on the evening of April
10th. He had been in bad health
for sometime and his death was not
unexpected. * His remains were interred
in Shiloh cemetery Sunday,
April 12, in the presence of a large
number of sorrowing and sympathizing
rel?tives and friends who
mourn his departure. But the Lord
doeth all things well. It is not
thought that he had an enemy in the
world, He was a gallant soldier and
served faithfully in the late war. Ho

death.
The dark wings of the angel of
death overshadowed the home of the
aged patriarch, My. H.Steel, and gathered
his spirit to his fathers. For
eight or ten years he had been confined
to his room, and the last few
years of his life he lost his eyesight,
lie was a kind and noble hearted
man. He served his day and generation
as bi-comes one who had consecrated
his life to the service of his
God. His funeral services were
conducted ut his late residence by
the Rev. J. I). Shealv, assisted by
the Rev. S. F. Sbumpert, iu the

Lexington, S. C., May 9, 1896.
[In compliance with request of
Messrs. Efird and George, we take
pleasure in stating that they are not
either as individuals or in their official
capacity responsible for any
thing that appears in these columns,
unless under or over their own signature,
or nom-de-plume. There was
one sentence at least, in the report,
namelj: "having no ax to grind, no
friend to reward nor enemy to punish,
etc.," which was conclusive evidence
to an intelligent public that they had
nothing to do with writing the report.
We will state further that
they are not responsible for the report
of even the actual work of that
convention as the report as published
was taken from notes made by a reporter
bf this paper, and all that was
gotten from them were the names of
the committee on resolutions, the
resolutions and the list of delegates.

To the Editor of the Dispatch:
Summer has set in in earnest.
Rain is very much needed.
The farmers arc busy planting and
plowing corn. Cotton is being put
in largely.
The health of the neighborhood is
very good at present except a few:
Mrs. A. W. Geiger, Sr., has been
quite sick but is improving: Mr.
Webster Taylor and family have
been sick but are better, their baby
was very low but am glad to say,
under the skillfull treatment of Dr.
Kendal of Brookland, it is again convalesant.
The people of this community are
very much pleased with their pastor,
the Rev. Mr. DuBose. I think him
an excellent divine and will accomplish
a great deal of good on this
circuit.
The girls are busy preparing their
summer costumes, and I rather think
they contemplate paying some leap
year calls, so look out young men or
you will have to say yes or give a
horse and buggy. I have seen two
riding out by themselves. One said
she did not intend to be left by no
means.
Ask Miss Carrie Leaphart of Rocky
Well, how she enjoyed her supper
the night she stopped eating to listen
at a joke that was being told at the
table and when she looked down, her
supper was gone.
There is a young bachelor in the
Rocky Well section raising a supply
of cats. He expects to make a large
crop of corn and he wants to get rid
of the rats to save his corn. I would
like to know if he has ever sung any
sweet lulabys for li s kittens.
I have been informed that two
young gents of this section will visit
the upper portion of Lexington this
summer and a married lady advises
the younger ones to sot their hooks
and have them well baited to be sure
to catch them.

a: long all classes.
Our solid merchant, Hon. W. H. F.
Rast, the sprightly "W. L. K. Johnson,
and several others were today
chosen dulegates to the county convention

trust that a spirit of harmony may
pervade the every actions of Democracy.

hope of our country. Bolting means
a short route to the enemy's camp,
where the only success to be hoped
for is in affiliation with negroes and
