Mr. Thack |$? ston foiled, strange to say, to make-clear ^.wtether the State Board passed the reao ssaJftypn; io question or not. He has i^dodgerl the issue, preferring to affirm and fe^^affirm how much he has been abased, ^andriiow pare have been his motives.

FREE PASSES AND FREE PASSES. , It was jost a year ago. He was Cap I "tain Tiilman then. He was "out." ^.{iSonlebodyelse was "in." He wanted "in." . He wanted somebody else "out." The ^people needed "education." They should ^jteedoeatedto the fact that South Caro? lina was ruled by the Columbia Club and __jhe-rallroads. The Clab wined and dined S^ithe State officers. The State officers be ?^came corrupt, bamboozled, debauched. :'i;TJbe?.raUroad8 gave free passes to the %\^aervants of the people." They became "subdued." "Bunch?' McBee wielded a ^'-/ffiibtte^irihWice. Why did he give the State officers free passes ? Did they give -^alae received ?" There was "rottenness i^D^nmark." . Turn the rascals out! Heia Governor Tiilman now. He is in. Somebody else is out. His is a "reform" ^administration. The "reformation" was v nearly two months old. "Bunch" McBee was at his same old tricks. He wanted to '?'subdue" somebody. Would he have the ~?brazen effrontery to try the "reform jHGovernor?" Impudent fellow ! Gov. -. ' Tiilman would Bpurn a free pass from yon ?S aa he would a bribe from the devil 1 But ^^Bunch" McBee does send a free pass to this same B. R. Tiilman. What happens ? Let the Governor's own words tell. On llpkhe 23rd of last January the following % leher was sent to the Mr. McBee spoken 'o^of ? above: S^^i"Dear Sir: Some time ago 1 received t^ pris over the Bichmond and Danville gyBtetn in South Carolina, accompanied by your card. My first impulse was to : return it, because in the past I have crit? icised members of the Legislature for ac c .-Mng free passes, and I do not care to . j placed in a false position. But after ' thinking over the matter I have decided W. to accept it in the spirit in which, I am -v sure, you offered it in, because you know me too well to suppose for an instant I , / could be influenced by so small a thing. ; - "I do not want to appear churlish or picayunish in mistaking a conrtesy for a bribe. I will, therefore, keep it and use it as occasion offers. "Thanking you kindly, I am youra very ly, B. R. TlLLMAN, -;rr-r> "Governor of South Carolina." -Would "s?"small a thiag" as a free pass ''influence" GovrRichardson, but have power over Gov. Tiilman ? Is a free pass a "courtesy" in Gov. Tillman's ^hands; but a "bribe" when in the posses ? - slon of officials of the last administra | tion ? I '- The Governor says the criticisms about Kr . hia free pass are "oopYemptible." So thought many of bis last summer criti? cisms of free passes, which constituted so large a part of his campaign thunder. We mention these things because we think the Governor guilty of notorious inconsistency, and not because we spe? cially object to an officer accepting a free pass when offered to him. Weinsist, however, that what was wrong for Gov. Richardson or his predecessors to do is just as wrong in Gov. Tillman, and that what Gov. Tillman can do with a clear conscience could be just as honestly done by his many illustrious predecessors. GEORGIA AND KANSAS. Comparisons are frequently more forci? ble than arguments, and more strikingly bring to view the real situation. A com? parison of this kind is offered between the article in last week's Intelligences taken from the State Alliance, the official organ of the Georgia Alliance, and the clipping given below. It will be remem? bered that in the article published last week, headed "Third Party in Georgia," some characteristic sentences like these occurred: "Unless a great change takes place in public sentiment every influence combined cannot keep the farmers of Georgia from, going into a new party. It seems to us inevitable." "We see but little chance of Georgia going Democratic in 1892." "There is a mighty upheaval of the people in favor of a new party." "Our farmers say that the Western Alli? ance men have stood by their every promise, and they are going to do their part as well." Similar sentences might be quoted. Now, look on that, and then on this, remembering Kansas has been considered the faithfnl of the faithful in Alliance matters, and is the stronghold of the third party: A Topeka, Kansas, special says returns received by the Alliance executive com? mittee from sub-Alliances which were asked to pass judgment on the work done by the Cincinnati convention are far from encouraging to the People's Party politicians. It is known that twenty-five sub-Alliances have repudiated the third party movement. Fifteen of these have reported to the State Alliance and ten to the Republican central committee. The Cloud County Alliance has adopted the, following resolution: "Whereas, the South was not repre? sented in the Cincinnati convention; and whereas, we believe the third party will disrupt the Republican party to the benefit of the Democratic party; there? fore be it Resolved, That we abandon the third party to return to our past affiliation." These resolutions, it is said, have a double significance because Cloud County is the home of Senator Wheeler, the only Alliance member of the Senate, and has always been considered a people's party stronghold. If the Georgians really want to go into a third party, which we are not ready to believe, what a severe rebuke the Kansas people have given them I We advise oar friends across the Sa? vannah to stick to the grand old Democ? racy., in which their Carolina neighbors will set them a wholesome example. IiOwndesTllIe News. We have not been too plentiful with our news, Mr. Editor, daring the past month, and will therefore ask for enough space in your worthy paper, to give you and your readers some idea of the beautiful Seven Hills. It appears that our country is on the road to progress. People are making ag? gressive work in all departments, and surely the garden spot of the South is onr Piedmont Region. But we shall not dwell on the resources of this beautiful land of ours, for they are too numerous for us to give adequate scope and meaning to in this space. At this season Lowndesville is quite a social place, and we may safely say one of the liveliest in the land. Yon have been a welcomed guest of this peoples' hospitality yourself, Mr. Editor, and as you have a standing invitation, only pressing when the city is rilled with girls, perhaps it w on Id be well for you to lay aside the cares of business, and regard that invitation with a degree of urgency at present. Verily the town is filled with young ladies, and if the Editors refuse to come to our assistance the end is inevitable. We trust therefore that you will hear our cry, and feel assured of your earnest effort to come to our rescue, when you read the following items of news. A sociable was given by the young men, to the visiting young ladies, at the resi? dence of Mr. R. A. McConnell on last Thursday evening. It was well attended by the young and gay, and happier times ne'er was passed by love among the flowers. A few evenings prior to this, the boat ride on the pond was truly amusing. The following constituted the merry crowd: Mr. R. J. Hutchinson, Miss Agnes Cooper, Mr. Jas. E. Carter, Miss Willie LeRoy, Mr. Gibbs. L. Baker, Miss Rebecca Wood, Mr. W. L. Kennedy, Miss Ida Chambers, Mr. Chas. T. Baker, Miss Willie E. Bon durant, Mr. L. O. McCalla, Miss Nannie Johnson, Mr. W. W. Speer, Miss Lucia Mosely. They were conveyed to the pond In wagons, in which were placed comforta? ble chairs, afterwards taken to be used in the boat for Beats. After an hour or so, the party returned home perfectly delight? ed with the sport, and fully determined to repeat the pleasure. Mrs. William R. White and her three daughters, Miss Loulia, Mrs. Hellams, and Mrs. Wright, of Greenville, are now spending some time with Dr. J. B. Mosely. You will observe, dear reader, that one of these charming young ladles is yet single. Her visits to the city are looked forward to with great pleasure by the young men, and we only wish with them that her visit means the entire season this trip. Miss Willie E. Bondurant, a charming and interesting young lady from Roanoke, Virginia, is now visiting the family of J. 0, Chambers. She will remain here for some time, and we are glad to hear that she is favorably impressed with the Seven Hills. Miss Maud Lomax, of Columbia, Is now visiting Mr. H. A. Teunent She is anoth? er bright figure in the social status here. Mr. 8. C. Baker was down to attend his father's burial on last Saturday. He is one of Anderson's most prosperous and deserving young men, and has the sympa? thy of his many friends in this the hour of his sorrow. Last Friday morning at half-past four o'clock, in his quiet and peaceful home, Mr. S. S. Baker paid his final debt of nature, and went to his last account. He was born at the Palmer Place near Warren ton on Little River, June 15,1822, and in this section spent the early days of his childhood. A few years after his majority he was happily married to Miss Martha Allen, the daughter of Banister Allen, a prominent farmer who lived near this place. But the days allotted to his devot? ed wife were few, for not more than a year had elapsed since the nuptial ceremony was performed, when the angel of death darkened the door of his home, and carried away the ideal of his heart. In this hour ofaffliction he suffered patiently, and like the strong and stalwart man he was, en dared ana never grew despondent. A few years later he was for a second time led to the altar of matrimony. Here he was married to Miss Lee Crowel, of Bartow County Ga., and who survives him to-day. He then procured a large tract of land about two miles east of La timer's station, where for a number of years he displayed that genius for tilling the soil that found no superior in Abbeville County. The climate, however, was not strictly a healthy one, and necessitated the removal of hie family to some better locality. He came to Lowndesville and settled on the edge of tbo town. Here he spent the re? mainder of his life. For thirty-seven years he was a Royal Arch Mason, and attended upon the services and ordinances of this fraternal institution with a great deal of interest and punctuality. His love and zealous effort for this order gave him a peculiarly tender place in the hearts and affections of its members. By tbeir hands he was laid at rest, with all the honors of his favorite order. His mission in life was humble, that of a farmer. Bat in his death the farmers have lost a faithful supporter, an earnest worker, and a good friend. His Eractical methods in this vocation gave im the first place in the ranks of his pro? fession. As a neighbor he was kind, and always ready to assist in the time of trial and need. His great heart and unreserved liberality will be missed by those who sought him in the hour of distress. His devotion to his wife and family was of the highest character, responding to all of their wants, with a disposition more than beau? tiful. He was tin generous father, the kind' b?nolactorj' the faithful friend, and the one better loved by those who knew him best He ended bis life in the bixty ninth year of his age, and has left a devoted wife and five children to mourn his de? parture. In this change he has left a record that shall go down in the ravage of irreparable years as one of the best in the annals of this community. His remains ?were interred in Smyrna cemetery. Old Eyes. Honda Path Items. The building of houses in Honea Path will begin again in a few days. Mr. James Taylor, one of the oldest citi? zens of Abbeville County, died at his home seven miles from this place last Sunday morning at 4 o'clock. He was buried at Mt. Bethel, in Laurens County, on Mon? day, the Rev. Mr. Taylor conducting tbe funeral service. Misses Mollie Johnson and Annie Ar? nold, of Anderson, after spending several days at Honea Path, have returned home. Their many friends here will always have a welcome for them when they come. Tbe following students have returned to Honea Path for their vacation : Misses Lou McOee, Mamie Kay, and Messrs. E. A. Cox, C. E. Burts and John A. Hudg ens. The following former students at the Honea Path High School have graduated at other schools during the past year: W. H. Simpson at Furman University, J. L. Eskew at the Peabody School, Nashville, Dr. C. Q. West at the Medical School, At? lanta, Mies Lou McGee at the Greenville Female College, and Misses Mertie Cul bertson, Nannie Kay and Kittie Thomas at the Winthrop Normal School. Prof. H. H. Watkins and Rev. B. P. Estes and family are visiting relatives at this place. Rev. S. M. Rice is boarding at Rev. M. McGee's. Miss Carrie Watkins is visiting Mrs. El rod. Miss Maggie Brennan will spend the summer with Mrs- T. H. Brock. Nearly all tbe young people of Honea Path attended the closing exercises of the Belton High School, and express them? selves as highly pleased with tbe exercises. Rev. B. P. Estes preached in the Bap? tist Church last Sunday morning and evening. M. I. and L. P. Brock went to Due West to hear the Commencement sermon last Sunday. Most of the people of Honea Path will attend the Due West Commencement this week, . Mr. J. C- Milford is arranging to build a new brick store room, and will continue business here. Pop. Belton Items. Last Mop day was the longest day in the year, and about the hottest so far. There was a large crowd in attendance at the closing exercises of the Belton Acade? my. The Principal and teachers of the Belton Academy tender their thanks to the ladies and gentlemen who so kindly aided them in making the closing exercises of the schocl a grand success. Be sure to attend the entertainment at Stringer's Hall Thursday evening, July 2nd. The Belton Amateur Company have something good for you. Come and see. Dr. Manly preached another very fine sermon at the Baptist Church, in this place, last Sunday. Few Churches are so fortunate as to have a better pastor and preacher than Dr. Manly. The young people of the town met at the residence of Rev. J. T. Smith last Tues? day evening, and spent a few hours very pleasantly, indeed. Mr. and Mrs. Smith enjoyed the occasion apparently as well as any of the young people, and cordially in? vited those in attendance to repeat their visit soon. No town of its size can boast of a greater number of really high-toned and worthy young men, or of more choice and amiable young women, than can Belton. It seems that somebody else besides Mr. Ki. Geer claims to have the finest garden in Belton. Now, the way to settle that question is to send a specimen of your cabbage, beans, squashes, etc., to the news? paper man. He can decide the question, and he wants quite a number of citizens to believe that they have the best garden, and decide the question in the manner sug? gested. S. T. J. Ministerb' and Deacons' Conference. The Ministers' and Deacons' Conference of the Saluda Association will convene with the Williamston Church Monday, July 13.1891. The Sunday School Insti? tute will convene with the same Church .on Tuesday, 14th, at 10 o'clock. The del? egates will find homes at the following places: Anderson Sunday School?S. Lander.

Stacks claims to have a good crop of small grain. Mr. Stack is a good farmer as well as a good mechanic. We must give Capt. J. T, Barnes praise for killing the fellow that he found with head fast in a jar near his smokehouse not many days since. Boys, if you want to know any more about it ask Mr. V. H. We notice the people around Barnes' Station are looking better since they have been drinking mineral water. Mr. Editor, if you should pass this way call and get a drink out of the public well. It will quench thirst and increase tbe appetite. The people of this neighborhood are' highly pleased with W. G. Watson & Son's store. The young Jadles are more espe? cially pleased with the son. Mr. J. T. Morgan is making arrange? ments to thresh the grain in this section. We recently heard some gentlemen talk? ing who had traveled the road from Au? gusta to Barnes. They complimented us for having the best crops they had seen on the road. Our neighbor says that his cook recently quit his employ without informing him of her intentions and without a cause, but thinks there has been a promotion, since he rinds that some one has been writing dots over the name of "Lizzie." A good many of our neighbors are called upon to attend Court this week. Mr. Editor, we are not in the habit of giving advice to older heads, but in refer? ence to the subject in hand we know where? of we speak. You had better not, when happening up on a man at work in his field, take notice of his being overwhelmed in grass and may-pops, or attempt to utter words of sympathy, for you might sudden? ly be forced to undergo a most deadly fusi lade of may-pops, and suffer a defeat equal to Bull Run. Lizzie. Chronicles of the Kingdom. The Kingdom of Bruno is right side up with oare, Mr. Editor. The weather being favorable last week, "Gon. Green'' was routed from many of bis strong-holds. He, however, still holds the fort in many places, but he is being assailed on all sides, and is all the time exposed to cross tires and flank movements. We had a fine rain yesterday, and to-day the weather is delightful for the growing crops. If we can just have fair weather the remainder of this week, by Saturday night wo will all be there, "Eli." We have had a toler? ably good time for harvesting the grain crop. It is nearly completed, and the crop of both wheat and oats is a good av? erage. Corn and cotton, as a general rule, look well?especially the corn crop. It is really good?a little above an average. Tbe health of the Kingdom is improv? ing. There have been sevral cases of diph? theria in the community?terious natu? but Dr. Duckworth is still master of the situation, and at this writing has not, I believe, lost a single oase. Well, Mr. Editor, babies are now In or der. Rev. W. B. Hawkins will perhaps select as a foundation for his next sermon the text of Scripture found in Genesis 1 j 28. At any rate he has received tbe bless? ing therein spoken of?it's a boy, and a regular ten-pounder. Mr. Robt. Thomp? son's wife presented him one night last week with a pair of fine twins, a girl and a boy. Bob was jubilant over the event. He whistled and sang, laughed and talked all night, and at daylight rushed out to the lot with double rations for horses, cows, hogs, etc, etc., but judge of his sur? prise when he found a pair of twin calves fn the lot-both beifew, and. full Jersey, I hope, at no distant day, to read items from a new correspondent, headed "dots from Twinville." Brother Pink, I under? stand, is all smiles and sunshine. It's a boy or girl, otie or the other, but I have for? got which. Well, the political fever is rising, and the third party men are talking saucy. It is generally believed that the contest in '92 will be a warm one. It is very certain that one of the old parties will have to "stand from under" and look on, while the other two fight it out. I can't say what party I shall finally freeze to, but it will be the one that will give me the best job. With best wishes for the health and prosperity of you and the Intelligencer, I will close and go and pick some black? berries. I hope to be down In a few days, and, as it is fashionable, I will call at your sanctum and tell you how to run a ? 'newspaper.1' Shanks. Roberts Items. Bain has been the order of the day in hi3 section for some time past, and "Gen? eral Green" appears in gorgeous attire. However, I think our farmers are ade tquate to the demands and will win tb? battle. A little hail fell in this vicinity Sunday, but did no damage. Mr. and Mrs. C. Wardlaw spent a day in this community recently. Hope they had a pleasant time. Come again. Hal, little son of Mr. and Mrs. C. H. Skelton, died last week. Mr. L. O. Williford has been in Georgia for the past ten days visiting his brother's family. From his*conversation one would conclude that he is somewhat soft in that direction. A well-known bachelor, who has caught on to a few signs and omens, says that you can see the sun every Friday. Some of our bachelors can't talk about anything but young girls and "grass wid? ows." Mr. William Smith has the finest piece of corn we have seen this year. Capt. S, A.. Jones takes the cake on cot? ton. The enclosed blossom was taken from his farm Tuesday, June 23d. Several oth? ers were found during the day. He has this year about two hundred and twenty five acres. It is regular, good stand, and in excellent condition, considering the unfa* vorable weather. From the appearance of his farm one would certainly judge him to be a progressive farmer. Our community is ahead of any in the County on cotton. In fact, we cannot be beat anywhere in the up-country. Commencements were in order through? out the State about the first of June. Boys are now scattered to the four corners of the State, and here is one, "Tuba." Starr Items. We are haying plenty of rain at the present, and ihe farmers are getting a little behind. Capt. Win. Jones has the finest garden of cabbage that we have Been. Mrs. Emily Jones is quite sick at the present. We wish her a speedy recovery. Mrs- M. J. Hanks, the beloved wife ;of Luke Hanks, was buried at Cross. Roads Church last Friday. Bev. Thomas Seigler preached at Cross Roads last_Sunday. His text was the seventh verse of the thirty-second Psalm. He delivered a good and interesting ser? mon to the congregation, which was a large one. We are sorry to announce the serious illness of Mrs. J. L. Bryan. We hope she may recover soon. Business is dull in our town, and our merchants have a good time taking naps. Messrs. E. P. Pruitt and W. J. Gentry are in the lead for forage corn. A few Sundays ago a young man from the Holland's Store section came down to preaching and had the misfortune to drop his hat in the publio well at this place. He give another young man one dollar to get it out. We wish him better luck next time. We will close and ask to hear from some one else next week, and if not we will call again soon. Ebio. Tribute of Bespoct. Wheroas, tlio Woman^a Aid Society of Mt. Pis gab Baptist Church was visited by tho Angel of Death oc the night of April 20th, 1891. Our Heavenly Master saw fit to call from us our Iovlug sister, Corrle Burdine, who was fifty-four years of age. She was a noble woman, and Christian worker, aud always ready to supply the wants of the needy when called upon. She was a sufferer for more than two years and eight months, which she bore with a loving Christian disposi? tion, and will be greatly missed by nil who knew her. Therefore, be it Betolved, That we ever hold in loving remom brnnce the many cherished Christian virtues of our departed sister, who was ever ready and willing to advance tke interest of our Society, and accom? plish somo good in the Master's Kingdom. Ruolved. That wo cherish tho many virtues of our sister by inscribing a blank page of our min? ute book to her inomory, Jtetoked, That we tender our heartfelt sympa? thies to the bereaved husband and relatives. Retolved, That a copy of these ptoceedings be sent to the Bapiiti Courier, the Anderson Intelli? gencer and theEasley Democrat for publication, and a copy be sent to the bereaved husband.

HERE'S THE STORY Itt A HUT SHELL! ON the night of Slay 7th, just as the clock atruck twelve, the agonizing cries of an old man in death were heard near the TEN CENT STORE. We soon learned that it was Old Man Price dying from a stab in the heart. His old enemy had tried swords with him, and succeeded in drawing his heart's blood. The deed was done by the same man who killed Price's eldest son two years ago. Old Mr. Price was a very good old man in his way, but his name has been abused by his children ; for it .must be remembered that Mr. High Price commit? ted various depredations in his time on the unsus? pecting public. But now the old original Price him? self is gone, and who did it ? . Why, the indefatigable O. S. MINOR AND THE TEN CENT STORE, who are always in the ring for the people. But this time they are fighting for themselves. They've struck a knot, and can't saw through. They need the scads, and they must have them. Yes, they have determined tbat competition shall die the same death that the Messrs. Price. Or if not this, starva? tion is his lot. They begin today putting? Big Goods at Little Figures, without consideration of Price. Yours, hard run for money, C. S. MINOR and TEN CENT STORE. P.
