Cleveland, 1 la ceamoi with the peeple generally
gave but little credit U it, but receives
ne statement from the Ooveroor denying i
it, I wMe him a letter of inquiry, which
letter he saw fit to ignore* I skall take up
ha public statement*, however, and answer
- them seriatim.
He diec'aims any "reference" te my private
character, or any feeling ef resentment,
ar desire to injure me, and yet he deliberately
proceeds te charge me with "betrayal"
?f the Alliaaoe, and "treachery te the peo&and
to the Al.iaace," thus making a
Uy thrust at my character and reputation.
We revd of one Joab of olden time,
who while waddeaed and blinded by pellticil
jealousy, pursued a faithful servant of
tha king, one who was on a mission to units
and harmonise the people, an I when he had
the
that te stab a man's cbatacter, whether

Under cover of supposed secrecy in a blacklist

The firet reason given by the Geveraor to
prevent "further betrayal ut the Alliance"

of tireeavillo Uouoty, etc. So far as my
failing to be elected a delegate to the May
convention is concerned, 1 nave the records

_ r V 1
r as honorable men as live in Greenville conn- |
if, that in a caucus of reformers, held just I
before the mealing of the County Convention, t
v a ballot was taken for delegates to the Slate i
Convention to be voted for in the open con- j
vention. About one hnlf of the ballots cast <
ior me were nut repotted, aud still the uum- i
bar of ballots couuied for me made me an i
alternate, wh ch according to a rulo of the t
caucus required that iny uaate be printed ou ?
the tiokets to be used in the open convention, s
.having failed therefore by the counting out i
Srocees to keep me off the tieket, it was <
iscovered in the convention, after a large
umber of them weie distributed te the t

confess; most of the committee 1 believe 1
were supporters of Mr. Cleveland, uud the b
results ef the convention indicated that there I
were quite a number of voting delegate'* also, n
who wore in favor of his nomination I felt w
then as I do now, that 1 as a free white a
South Carolina Democrat, h id as much right I
to my choice of Mr. Clevelind to the ?
dency 33 Governor Tillman lind for his 1
choice. As atrea-Jy stated, my position for h
Mr. Cleveland wis well understood before v
the May convention met. No demand was 'a
made upon me by tint convention, and I /
deny the cinrgo that 1 consciously deceived
any one, cither by silcucc. or by speech.
The next count in litis wonderful iudiciment ^
k>V-ferrtrar1 pledged myself if elected President M
1 of the State Alliance, nut to seek any oitice, '
to., and this report 44I am told" is being ''
very industriously circulated in Alliance ^
circles as though it were a fact, which if '
believed will, as is hoped for by those who ''
seek my injury, have the effect of brcukiug 8
the uui4y of ttie Alliance, in supporting my 1
efforts as its offc'al head, to build up and w
^ maintaiti the true principles of the order.
The exact truth is, 1 did not sack the nont- ''
inaiion of the presidency of the State Alii- *
anee, but on the contrary express ;d to many l1
of those who approached me on the subject, "
that I preferred* tq decline, and I um sure '
fliat ever* member of the State Alliance ir/to R
vo'ed jot me will bcir me out in the state- f'
men! : thnt 1 did not in the slightest degree "
expre-s or imply any such pledge, mr was ''
any such requirement laid upon me by any P
one whomsoever. 1 did say lifter my elec J
tien that 1 won d do all within lay power to 11
build up and advance the interests of the ^
l order, which 1 have dono. and will continue ''
to do. It might be interesting right here to ''
inquire of I lie Governor, whence comes this r
hew born zeal for the welfare and safety of M
the Alliance on his part'! 1 believe that at r
one time be was made President of the
Edgefield County Alliance, and thnt not- 1
withstanding he had pub islied far and wide 1
?to ehow his disinterested patriotism?that a
Iff wanted no office save that of a trustee of f
qn sgrictiltur.il college, yet he did nqt lic-i- 1
tqte to embrqee the first opportunity tr hold c
office of another kind. When Allt > neemen '
all over the State revert to his defiance of 1
the order and tie principles, ?s lie demon- f
strated it at the moeting of I he State Alliance '
at Spartanburg, tlioy will no doubt look "
upon his great and suddbo Alliqne virtue in
t!iia esse as s mewhat ludicrous snd gro- (
tesque. Ill llio Inst count lie charg.s imc ?

what tLis uas o, as given to Mr. CtevoUad,
nraar.
So far as relate* to Bunch McBee having

upltrj.
Again, I incut red the displeasure of lb*
Sovernor bjr a'luwing tbe Legislature te elect
tbe oatnmi-siouers instead of the people.
As a matter of f *ct 1 was ia favor of a clause
being inserted in the hill to have tbe commissioners
elected by tbe prople, one every
wo years, but it was thought best by some
>f the reform S.na'ors not to do-to at tbat
dote, for tbe reason that there could be
rite'Ion by the people till the nest general
rlectiea, end that as as -a matter neoeeeity
the Legislature must elect as the nearest
approach to the prople. It was also thought
>est not ta increase oppesitim to tho passage
>f the bii by inserting that provision, innsnuob
as the same Legisla'ure would sit the
text winter, when i> would be easy to amend
he act. In these flimsy reaseus given by
die Governor for his course ha Again overreaches
himself, for it is wcll-knowu that tbe
efortu Senators had a hire majority in the
lenata, and that without their uni<el support
no pint of ths bill could have been
)ns8rd. Why did he nrt blacklist them all?
in I hi j connection 1 will a'so s nte that upon
dl important bills the reform Seuat rs he'd
meetings and agreed up <n what they wished
jttsscd, after wbich one of their uumber was
ihosen to take charge of the hi 1 and conduct
t on the floor of Ilie Senate. In this rail-ond
bill this duty was devolved upon me to
nake all motions, oiler amend incuts, etc., as
igrced upon. So it will be readily underilood
that each of the ether reform Senators
s as chargeable with this crime in the Governor's
sight as I am.
1 have thus given tho fact in this case in
cfutation of the issue of perversions and
niasiatemeuts made in the Governor's
iharges against me, and I feel linppy in the
uiow'clge iliat there are scores of men who
ire personally acquainted with every circumstance
mentioned and who cau testify to
he faois as I have slate 1 them, sirue of
vhom have already done so by letter
In conclusion allow ue to cull attention to

lie nays: '-The Alliance has nothing
? do with it, either directly or iudirectly,"
md yet tries to defend his c nduct towards
ts President ?t the grounds of his lore for
ho Alliance.
He intimates by the mention of Bunch
tlcBee that I wa? in collusion with the railbads
and that I "appeared to be governed
r.- self-interest rather than by patriotism,"
[nd ret he will not deny thai as citizen and
tatriot he told the people, when hist lie nskid
them to make liitn their Governor, that
he corruption and debauchery in the State
ras due to the ubc of froe passes by members
if the Legislature and State otlicitls. Was
t "self-intere't rather than patriotism" that
;ovcrned Irm when after bis election he reeived
more passes than perhaps any one
vlio proc.ded him? Common prudence, it
rould seem, as well as self-preservation,
^Ight to have steered the Governor clear of
lunch McBce. "Truly whom the gods
rould destroy they first make mad."
Lastly, ho regrets the necessity "which
ias forced a rehearsal of these undisputed
acts " Of this I have no iluubt whatever,
or "I was told" that the Governor had said
o several parties that his letter to President
Cleveland was intended to be regarded at
ntideniiul, but as it leaked out, the neccsity
came upon him to explain, and then,
lthough "the Alliance has nothing to do
ri h it, either directly or iudirec ly," ho
rinds up by taking refuge in the sano'uary
f the reform movement anl the Alliance.
'To Ctcsar he has appealed, to Ctc-ar be
hall go." As to the reform movement I am
eady to compare records with him as to
jyalty, consistency and length of service,
n the Alliance cause wit It which I hare
cen identified l'rom its infancy in tbisSin'e,
have worked 111 its almost every departleut.
If there is a brother in the order
rho is willing to charge niewith the betray1

i?t night when the men around Kingtree
nd vicinity, in IViliiamsburg county, caught
lam Uaillard, colored, nnd swung ltiin as
igh as llauman and tilled his body with
sad. Uaillard was au ex-convict who had
erred two terms in the peniteutiary. List
'hursday he committed an assault upon a
rhitc woman named Mrs. Neamith while her
usbnnd am away from her. With knife

Irs. Nesmiih gave the alarm and the citizns

Auother account of the assault is, that in

A grand Sunday School pic oio took place
across the river in Yerk county, at Whiteside's
Mill, or Clerk's Fork, last Saturday.
All er most of the schools for miles around
in every direction were represented. Sixteen
wagons and teams leaded wdh men,
women und children, te sty nothing ef bug- f<
gies, carriages, carts, pedestrians and equea- f(
trians, formed iu line at Hickory Grove and
went in one solid caravan to the p c uie
grounds, a mile and a half beyond the town, ?
where they were met by ethers from ether
directives, end all enjoyed a day of pleasure.
Everything tbat feminine ingenuity could g
invent, in the way of edibles, was spread
upon the dinner table. Old men and women,
whose hearts and sympathies are eulisted iu
the good work met, and in social circles recounted
life's battles, its hopes and despairs,
its sunshiua and its glvom.
The ubiquitous eupid, with his bow and
quiver, was prrseut to note the gulian ry of
the young men who showed their devotions
to ihe young maidens, whose immaculate G
purity is worth tuoro thau a nation's life.
While last, but not least, the jojoua shouts n
and merry rongs t f the children arose in ?i
one grand anthem to pronounce Heaven'*
benediction upon the occasion.
It is unnecessary for us to say that our
North Pacolct secti n was well rrpieeented P
on this happy occasion. The ptop.cef Western
