NO REPUBLICANISM FOR US.
We have given space to the lengthy
article of ColoDel Ivootts for many
reasons. Id the first place we believe
that it is a matter of right and
justice that the columns of a public"
newspaper should be open to the
citizen to give expression to bis views"
on questions of interests, no matter
how much at varieDce those views
may b9 with those cf the editor of
the paper. Cbiefly for this reason
his article appears in these columns.
As far as we are informed no one
impugns the motives of Colonel
Knotts in seveiing his connection
with the party of bis fathers and of
his race and connecting himself with
that party whose sentiments and principles
are that Ethopian darkness and
heathen barbarity should triumph
over Caucasian enlightenment and
Caucasian civilization. But there are
many who do question his judgment
in blasting his opportunities for improving
the moral and civil condition
of his fellow citizens and destroying
his influence for good iD leading th?m
to a higher plane of citizenship.
It is not our purpose to be drawn
into a controversy because there is
really nothing in his article to discuss.
It is nothing more than a medly
of individual assertions unsupported
by facts or reason. The history of the
Republican party is before the people
and needs no explanation. As it is
written so it must be judged. Its
history was commenced in strife,
its progress has been marked with
the blood and it will go down to
an unhonored grave in blood, leaving
behind a record upon the pages of
American history that will bring the
blush of shame to the cheeks of
future generations. It has been opposed
to the development of AngloSaxon
(white) manhood; it has endeavored
to reverse the laws of God,
nature and man by elevating the ser?
vant above the master. It bas made
the American flag which, under Democratic
government, was the emblem
of liberty, the ensign cf oppression.
The crimes that the Republican
party have committed in the name
of humanity, of American civilization
and enlightened Christianity can be
enlarged until columns are filled, but
we have neither the time nor space to
do so.
LET US MOVE.
We are pleased to see that the
movement, to have Lexington county
fittingly represented at che South
Carolina and West Indian Exposition
is taking tangible shape and form.
Hon. W7. H. F. East is taking the
lead in this matter and in a communication
published in this issue invites
the hearty co-operation and assistance
of every patriotic eon and
daughter of Lexington in securing
an r>f nnr resrinrops* i.hat will
reflect great credit upon the county
and advertise her to the world.
Lexington has heretofore taken a
leading and prominent position in all
matters pertaining to agriculture as
well as in her manufacturing interests,
and whenever she has entered
the list to win, she has always left it
victorious and with flyiDg colors.
Now when an opportunity of enlarged
possibilities-aDd greater results
are presented to bring her unlimited
resources prominently before
a larger number of people, it will be
worse than folly not to grasp it and
make the most of it, especially so
since her sister counties arn moving
in this direction and will endeavor to
capture the blue ribbon.
Lexington has been wonderfully
favored by nature when she distiibuted
her gifts with rich and abund
ant resources tbat cannot be surpassed
in their adaptability to the necessities
of man and of superior quality, and
their development into commercial
utilities will make her 1 lie richest
and most influential county in the
State. Let us all put our shoulders
to the wheel and assist the movement
to the best of our ability and as opportunity
arises, and let us not rest
contented or cease our efforts until
we shall have gathered together such
a display that shall excite the admiration
of the home seeker and sight
seer and reflect credit upon Lexington
county and upon her people.
Mr. Conger, cur minister to China,
who has recently returned home from
the Flowery Kingdom, in an article
prepared for Leslies "Weekly intimates
that the Chinese are willing to do
anything to restore peace. He is of
the nninion that if any nation de- ;
r - - . t
mands territory ia lieu of a money
indemnity the partition of China will
follow and this will inevitably cause
much dissention bttveen the powers.
These difficulties and disputes would
be long in the settling ard would
lead to terrible confusion in China.
It is also his conviction that Russia
ha9 so 'far mitigated her demands
that there is not now much daDger
of serious difficulty between her aod j
Japan.
Official news have been received ia j
rVklnmhift that. thafe-citv has been se- !
lected as the place for the annual
meeting of the Southern Educational
Association. The meeting will take
p'ace next Christmas and New Year.
Columbia has won over Chattanooga.

ONLY AN INCIDENT.
The Hampton incident has created ,
cuite a stir iu political and social circles,
and an effort has been made by
certain sensational papers to make
political cipital out of it. From the
4 * ? ?L La A L A
ifcfSHLUUIi^ WUICU LlclS uecix UCVCiupcu
it appears that Mr. A. 13. William?, a
close personal friend of General
Hampton, approached Senator McLiuriD,
without the General's knowledge,
and asked him to endorse Gen.
Hampton for postmaster at Columbia:
a promise was obtained conditioned
that "when a vacancy occurred:"
Mr. George R Koester, a personal
friend of Senator McLauriD,
on his own motion, undertook the
task of ascertaining if Gen. Hampton
would accept the position: he
consulted with Mr. Wade Hampton
Gibbes, Jr., another personal friend
of General Hampton, who in turn
laid the matter before the General
and received his emphatic refusal.
There is not a word cf evidence J
either expressed or implied, except
in the comments of the State Dewspaper,
to show that any of the parties
acted in bad faith or sought to buy
General Ha'mpton with public office.
We think that General Hampton'
made a mistake in Dot accepting the
position, if for no other reason than
an bonest, efficient and a Democrat
would have held the office. We
of the South have, often times
hifieriv condemned the class of Fed
eral appointments in the South, and
yet when opportunities are given for
improving the service by the appointment
of high toned and competent
men to office, they invariably decline
and curse the Administration the
louder because of its appointments.
The Jacksonville Fire.
Fifteen million dollars worth of
property gone up in smoke -and ten
thousand people made homeless is
the pitable story that comes from
Jacksonville, Fla., as a result of the
disastrous fire which swept that city
on May 3rd. A little after noon on
that fatal day, in a small factory,
from a defective wire originated a
blaze that was destined to sweep the
doomed city like a sea of fire forever
ten loDg and horrible hours.. The
man upon whose premises the fire
started dropped dead from excitement.
It is said that the scene during
the conflagation was appalling
in the extreme and very touching.
A stalwart negro biinging a trunk on
bis head from a burning building,
went crazy from the horror of the
situation. He ran around in a circle
with the trunk on his head until be
sank exhausted and died. Women
ran through the street tearing their
hair and clothes and in several in
stances had almost denuded themselves
when they were caught by
friends and led to place3 of safety.
Horses hitched to trucks could not
be cut loose quickly enough and
many of them ran wildly through the
demoralized crowd making confusion
worst confounded. Men and women
and children saved themselves from
the flames only by making perilous
leap3 from burning buildings into
the river below. Not since the burning
of Columbia has a Southern city
been so terribly afflicted by fire. The
response to the call for assistance
has been liberal and food, clothing,
medicine and money are coming from
all parts of the country.
The people of Jacksonville have
gone bravely to work and it is expected
that a more beautiful city will
be erected on the ashes of the old one.
The United States cavalry and
artillery have left Pekin. Imposing
ceremonies attended their departure.
General Chaffee publicly thanked the
cavalry and artillery for their services
in the international relief expedition
and for tbeir behavior since which
has been, he said, a credit to themselves
and their nation.

Lexington Must be Represented.
To the Editor of the Dispatch: '
I was phased to note the action taken
some time ago by the Cotton
Growers' Association at Lexington ;
in reference to the South Carolina i j
Interstate and West Indian Exposition.
Lexington county has been
O J j
among the leading ones iu the State j
hor/>fnfnr? af thr< Fair and it is more !
important now that she take an in j
tere9t in this Exposition. It is a | 1
World's Exposition and will not only (
advertise our products and resources ! I
to the State but to the world. It is j 1
by this meaus that Atlanta has done
so much for Georgia. Most of the
counties in the State have already j
taken considerable interest in it, have i
organized and are getting their exhibits
ready. We should not put it
off but let every one interested it: the
advancement of our county go to work
and gc-t up a creditable exhibit of
our industries and resources. We ,
have ample supplies of them. We ,
should get them up from our agricultural
sources both field and stock, ,
manufacturing, domestic and mineral. |
We have thousands stored away (
under our 6and hills. We have in i
our kaolin beds some of the finest
that can be had and those having
such would do well to get up speci- j
mens in as neat a shape as possible. ]
I know of some near the railroads i
that cannot be surpassed. We can- i
not afford to be idle while others are i
moving. It is not a Charleston
Fair but will greatly add to the i
whole State. The Federal Govern- i
ment has refused an appropriation :
but we have the energy and resources j
to make it a success and greater will <
be the credit if we do it ourselves.
Let us put our shoulders to the ]
wheel and make it a success not for <
Charleston alone but for Lexington
and the State. i

A Correction.
ChapiD, S. C, May 7, 1001. j
To the E3itor of the Dispatch:
Some weeks ago I read in your
paper some "Historical Sketches," 1
dealing with the history of the early
churches in this county. There was
an omission of one name from the
list of Lutheran churches enumerated
there, ana as the writer of the
"sketches1' invites the correction of
errors, I fend you this correction, i
In Bernheim's history of the "Ger
man Settlements ana Lutheran ,
Churches in the Carolines,*'page 23-i.
we find this statement: "Newberry
District (county) was only partially
settled by Germans, and at a period
succeeding the colonization of SaxeGotha.
A number cf German
churches existed there in 1788, which
were incorporated at that time by
legislative enactment, the names of ]
which were: The German Lutheran t
church of Bethlehem, on Forreiits' 1
(FurstV) Ford; The German Lutheran
church of St. Jacob, on Wateree <
creek; The German Protestant i
church of Bethany, on Green creek: <
and The German Lutheran church of 1
Cf " i
kjl. iuaiuu. j
Unless I am badly mistaken the
Bethlehem church mentioned here is 1
identical with the Bethlehem still in !
existence end now generally known
as the ''Bookman church-'. 1

wished to make.
