Bon Tillman accusing Johnnio Mo Laurin of political heterodoxy and political troaohory 1 What a Bpoota ?i?? y? gods and minnows ! Bon's roast of Johnnio on tue point of tho pitchfork is warm, vory warm. It has nil the characteristics of a roal, hearty Tillman tirade, and, sad to say, it is all deserved. Johnnie has boon a very bad little boy-but has not Ben been just as bad a big boy ? Tillman charges MeLaurin with unfaithfulness to Democratic princi ples, and tho charge is lammentably just. But is it so long ago that this same Tillman was looking somewhat longingly for that "light in the West ?" Is our memory at fault or did Tillman ever threaten to leave the Democratic party and to take South Carolina with bim ? Aro desertion and treachery different when Popu lism and Republicanism aro to be tho respectivo beneficiaries ? Me Laurin is about as far out of the De mocratic party as a man can bo and still claim to be in it, but he is hardly a step farthor than Tillman was a fow years ago. Tho difference is one of direction, not of degree, and wo aro not suro but that after all MeLaurin has as good a claim to be called a Democrat as his colleague formerly possessed. MeLaurin is not much more of a protectionist than Tillman is, and he says he has never threatened to leave tho party. Tillman cannot truthfully say that for himself. . It is a hard and a definite charge Tillman makes against his colleague in tho matter of the Paris treaty. It is very true that after speaking against the treaty and denouncing tho policy of imperialism it might load to, Senator MeLaurin changed front and voted for ratification. So far as the mere act of voting for rati fication is concerned, Senator Me Laurin might plead that Mr. Bryan, the acknowledged leader of the De mocratic party, counselled such a course-although the situation had radically changed since Bryan gave his advice, and what seemed best be fore the opening of hostilities seo tn cd worst after it. On his subsequent votes he cannot so plausibly and so easily defend himself, but in this one case, which Senator Tillman brings forward, the junior col I cage has tho better of the senior, for tho latter also changed front tit a critical mo ment. IL was not <|ttite two months ago. Senator Tillman, it will be re membered, wa? vowing his relentless and unwavering opposition to the imperialistic schemes of the Repub lican party, of which the most nota ble was the Platt resolution concern ing Cuba. Ile swore "war to the knife and thc knife to tho hilt ;" he threatened to talk the whole legisla tive programme to death, and in short, wits at his best, raging, bl niling and blustering. Suddenly, Ben subsided. "Silenced and soothed," the correspondents said, by the promise of an appropria tion for Charleston's (Exposition and an Unobstructed river and harbor bill, in which Senator Tillman ex pected "to got his share of the steal ing for South Carolina." This is ti likely charge, and although Tillman has made a partial denial, it remains unrefttted to this day. That Ben was bought off there is little d' ubt, but he was also bun coed- for the price was not paid. It' Senator MeLaurin, as Tillman so plainly intimates, was ever bought, bc made a better bargain and has been more successful as a tradesman. So on that score also, the honors arc oven-or if there is an advantage, it is McL-ntirin's, for it was left to thc junior Senator to help out poor Charleston with his dearly mortgaged influence, As for the charge of plagiarism against the Bennellsville statesman of thc new school, it has been made before and proved. N'o one has ever accused Tillman of plagiarism, His imagination is capable of manufac turing not only speeches, but facts, and on occasion he does not hesitate to invent any sort of story that suits his selfish purpose. To "steal tho brain work ol' another" is pretty bad, but is it any worse than con cocting StatomcnlS that tire original but false ? There are different kinds of dishonesty. And MeLaurin has made Tillman blush for South ('anilina ! Aurora's rouge pot ! ! If is nu accepted say ing that "chickens will come homo lu I'OOSt, Tillman's manners ami methods, his official Conduct as Gov? OrnOI', his disregard for the decencies of public life, his public profanity and blasphemy, have made many a native of the Palmetto Stale blush for tho commonwealth of Calhoun, Preston ami I layne. Concluding ~ hi? interviow, the senior Senator oxprcsses a desire and a <l rt erm i nation to meot hiscolloaguo on tho stump. We hone this wish will bo gratified. If Tillman will only donounco MoLnuriu to his faeo as ho has done in print aud MoLau rin eau muster the nerve to bring up the many counter chargea which he can so easily present, the meetings will bo worth attending. Meanwhile wo sit upon the fouoo and cry : "Lay on Marda li. And damu'd bo bim that first orlos, "Hold, onough I" n - McLaurin's Speech. That superb knight of tho quill, Editor Hugh Wilson, of tho Abbe ville Press and Banner, makes tho following timely comment on Sonn tor MoLaurin's speeoh : ^"Sonator MoLnurin'B speeoh at Charlotto in itself was ono to which no ono has offered any roasonablo ob jection, and oxcopt in tho cuso of thoso objections which may havo had for their foundation personal ani mosity to tho spoaker, no ono has yet said anything ngaiust it worthy of note. "Tho speech from a Democratic < standpoint is acceptable to tho great \ mass of thoso who hold to tho pa triotic principles by which tho Demo cratic party should bo governed. "But Mr. MoLaurin gavo offonao : ; "First-To his enomies, by protest ing his allegiance to tho Democratic party. "Second-Ho gavo offense to his enemies because of tho ability and patriotic spirit which pervaded that speech, while the enthusiasm with which that address was received by thc people was truly painful to thoso who seek his overthrow. "Thc speech was particularly and personally offensive to Tillman : "First-Because of tho high plano upon which it was pitched, and which Speech met with a responsive echo in thc hearts of so many of her peo ple. "Second-Because McLaurin failed to make any allusion, directly or in directly, to thc senior Senator. This fact, together with tho evident turn ing of the popular tide toward tho junior Senator, was moro than the senior Senator could stand in silence. "Third-Not being able to point out errors in the speech he could not suppress his natural impulse, ns evi denced in his interview. "Fourth-McLaurin's ready reply is incisive and to the point, and holli in the manner of speech and in con test of wit, it must appear to the senior Senator that McLaurin has lost nothing. "From the speech and tho inter view with Tillman and the reply of Senator McLaurin, and thc tenor of the junior Senator's speech al Char lotte we arrive at these conclusions : "First-That Tillman's evident rage at tho reception which was ac corded to the junior Senator's speech furnished the real cause of the senior Senator's attack. "Second-That Tillman being the aggressor has gained nothing by the stunning blow which McLaurin gave. "Third-That Tillman having been triumphantly elected to thc Senate over the protest of about one-third of the people of this State, some of them may think it well for him not to repeat the mistake which Hamp ton made several years ago in trying to intermeddle with the election of a United Slates Senator. "Fourth-Besides the speech that McLaurin made at Charlotte, thc fact bf McLaurin's success where Tillman failed, in thc matter of the Charleston Exposition, must have been very mortifying to tho senior Senator, and may have been the real cause of his assault on thc junior Senator. "Fifth-While wo have no doubt of tho senior Senator's ability to tell the people who they should elect, wc believe that they arc not in a mood to submit to dictation. "Sixth-If Senator Tillman can impress upon thc minds of thc peo ple the fact to which ho refers, namely : That to McLaurin belongs tho credit of bringing about the rati fication of thc treaty of peace, Mc Laurin's oleotion is assured. A ma jority of this people arc in favor of holding on to tho advantages result ing from tho Spanish war. Tho islands which we acquired are valua ble. Their worth, at any rate, could not bc estimated in money. The ac quisition of much valuable territory, rich in minerals and wood, and abounding in thc products of the :.::.!, togothcr with tho millions of people who inhabit the islands, will be of untold value to this country. When the people of the archipelago become acquainted with us and get used to our government, they will be as loyal as any people over which the Hag Moats, '''hey will make good soldiers. "In times of war, which may come, they will he a tower of strength, while in times of peace, which shall be our normal condition, the com mercial advantages to our pooplc will be great and lasting."
