( REFOFtM OF THE PRIMARY.
Senator Tillman Sayi the Legislature
Should Take the Matter Up.
Washington, January 7:?"We
must either reform the primary system
by law or see it die," warns Senator
Benjamin Ryan Tillman, in an
open letter to the South Carolina
general assembly, soon to meet, in
which it is urged that legislation be
enacted to safeguard the primary system
of election in this state. "If we
enacted to safeguard the primary system,"
writes Senator Tillman, "and
make it above suspicion, good government
in the state is doomed." The
senior senator again warns the peopie
against the negro being used in
V politics under white leadership; if
^ Klonlr nnmilotlnn ho thiiR lDAhllfc.
r- iHV umv n |/V|/uiwv>v.?
* ed, he thinks, offices of trust and power
will become mere "pawns in the
(fame of politics, to be bought by the
highest bidders."
Following is the statement:
No Attempt to Dictate.
"I dislike to have the appearance
even of assuming the right to dictate
to the general assembly, and such is
not my purpose now. But for reasons
unnecessary to enumerate, I feel J
that I have a duty to perform in the
i present instance.
White Supremacy Endangered.
"The angry passions aroused last
summer in the state campaign for
governor have in a measure subsided.
rand the people have cooled off. To
my mind there was great danger to
white supremacy and Democratic
unity which has now happily passed.
But unless every possible safeguard is
thrown around the primary system,
by law, rules and regulations made
so plain and of such a just and reasonable
nature as to compel honesty
and fair play in the primary?the
system is doomed and the people of
the state will settle their political
differences at the polls in November
just as they do now In all border ana
northern states.
Two Whits Parties Impossible.
'There are many people in South
Carolina who would be glad to see
two white parties in the state. Were
conditions different, I myself, would
Lllke to have two white parties, but
as things are now it would mean the
mobilization of the negro and his active
and aggressive return to state
politics undef white leadership.
A Dire Calamity.
"I know of no calamity greater
than this that could overtake our people.
I speak advisedly, for I went
through the reconstruction period and
know the degredation to which our
people sank, the rottenness and corruption
that were in our politics, and
made our government a by-word and
a hissing, and I know how hard it
was to get the white men to line-up
shoulder to shoulder and throw off the
yoke. From 1868 to 1876 we had the
vilest and most corrupt government in
South Carolina that has ever existed
in any state of the Union, except
Louisiana.
9 Offices as Pawns.
"The negroes outnumber us in
South Carolina by more than one
hundred and fifty thousand and a
large number of them are either registered
or eligible for registration, if
they should ever be mobilized and led
to the polls by white men in the
struggle for mastery and control, then
we can never save the state from a
repetition of even greater corruption
than we have already endured. The
state corporations and Standard Oil,
to say nothing of the railroads, would
use money lavishly, and the governorship
and the United States senatorship,
to say nothing of the congressional
delegation, would become
pawns in the game of politics to be
bought by the highest bidders.
Remedy by Legislation.
"The Democratic party of South
Carolina, when it meets again in convention.
will no doubt deal with this
question, but the legislature ought to
deal with it now, at this coming session,
while the memory is fresh and
knowledge of intensity of feeling has
not faded away.
General Outline.
"I cannot and will not indicate Just
what sort of a law the legislature
fT?U~ mnat Ko
UUglll IU posa. X lie ucuaua uiuat
worked out In committee, but I can
and will outline the general policy
which should govern us in this crisis:
"First: The primary ought to be
I honest and fair and above all suspicion.
"Second: No man ought to object
to whatever expense and trouble
are necessary to secure such registration
and preparation of the Democratic
club rolls as will insure honesty
and fair play. It must not be left
to hazard and guess work.
"Third: Stringent rules and regulations
are required. No man should
participate in the primary to nominate,
that is not willing and able to
stand the test of registration to participate
in the general election.
"The rules should be few, plain and
simple, but they must be enacted into
law in order to compel compliance
with them. Rigid punishment ought
to be provided for any man who neglects
to comply with all conditions
and rules or he ought to lose his vote.
An honest and fairly conducted primary
can and will command the endorsement
and support of all rightthinking
white people; a dishonest one
will command the support of nobody.
Reform or Death.
"We must either reform the primary
system by law or see it die. No
decent man will object or resist the
f rule of the majority fairly expressed.
Let us see to it that none but duly
qualified citizens vote at the Democratic
primary, and danger of trouble
_ _will disappear. If we do not safeguard
the primary system and make
it above suspicion, good government
in the state 1b doomed. We want no
man In the Democratic primary who
votes the Republican or other national
ticket In the general election.
"I write the above believing that I
will never ask the people to vote for
me in another primary, because I believe
I will be dead before another
senator to succeed me is elected.
Therefore, no charge of selfish or personal
motive can be justly made
agalnpt me taking the position I do. It
is solely because I know the danger,
having passed through the crisis once,
that I make bold to write this way."
BETTER GAME LAWS WANTED.
Editor Yorkville Enquirer:
Allow me a few lines of your valuable
space to discuss the greatest
problem that confronts the sportsmen
of not only York county, but of South
Carolina and that is the scarcity of
game. I can remember a half dozen
years back, when you could in one
afternoon find at least eight to ten
covey of birds. Now you will do
well if you find half so many in a
A a\f
I think it is the duty of not only
t the press, but every true sportsman
B of the state to petition the legislature
to frame a law prohibiting the hunting
and killing of any game for two
years. Then open the season with
just the months of December and
January to hunt in. The legislature
should not only pass such a law, but
there should be provisions made to
enforce it. (There is no enforcement
of the game law today.)There should
be a chief game warden in every
county, who should appoint others
in each township. The chief should
be paid a salary and the rest should
receive a certain amount of the fines
imposed upon the violators of the
law.
If we don't do something for the
protection of our game, we will not
have any in a few years to protect.
.Vow. I think it is the duty of every
sportsman to prevail upon the lawmakers
to see that a bill Is passed
for the protection of game.

Fort Mill, S. C\. Jan 8. 1913.
? Gaffney special of January 9 to the
Columbia State: At yesterday's session
of the Cherokee county commissioners.
it was decided to recommend a
one-half mill tax levy for the purpose
of paying interest on a proposed bond
measure of $50,000 for Cherokee counL
ty. The county is about this amount
\ in debt and it is proposed to vote
bonds, if this is permitted by the legislature,
which convenes in Columbia
next week, and the half mill tax levy
recommended yesterday is for the purpose
of paying the interest on the 7
bonds, when approved by the South pu,
Carolina general assembly. The regular
tax levies for the different purposes
in the county was reccmmended yesterday,
this being four mills for the
ordinary' county, six mills for the T
chaingang and bridges and a minor JL
levy or so for bridges and ferries. Y01
Cherokee's board of county commissioners
is composed of J. D. Wilson, W.
G. Fowler, W. H. Crocker, A. Harris,
T. G. McCraw and John D. Jefferies.

A Furniture Pointer
Right NOW Is a good time to buy
Furniture, whether you buy from us
or from some other dealer. We say
NOW, because Furniture prices have
been during the past year steadily
advancing, and the tendency NOW is
upward. Of course, you'll always be
able to buy "cheap" furniture, but at
the same time you will be paying a
higher price than you did last year
perhaps, or a few years ago. The upward
trend is steady and buying now
Is good business sense. If you expect
tr? hnv Turnltiira thin vpnr the beet
time to buy ia right now, and we are
sure that you can buy It to the best
advantage at this store. Our stock
Is large and it is varied enough to

you are ready to buy Furniture and
House Furnishings, Ranges, Cooking
Stoves, Paints, Oils, Etc., be sure to
see us. We will give you the benefit
of the Lowest Possible Prices.
