Shoppard was right when he said iu his speech on Saturday that Governor Tillman could nothava done the State a greater injury than when he struck a blow at tho Legislature and the Judiciary, call? ing the one "driftwood" and saying they were not fit to elect anyone or anything, - andinalleging ?competency and oorrup -?' tion against the other and saying they had j : seized power not granted them by the j ?'?law; ' r] That shows tiao arrogant and dictatorial character of tho man as nothing else can. , . You know Wallace and' Hudson and " Norton and Kerahaw and Witherspoon ' ? and Praser and Aldrieh and Izlar. You have served as Jurors under them. You have seen them aumiidster Justice. You have heard their opinions as casually ex ressed on various subjects incident to .their offices. Bo you bolieve them of any-. one of them to be incompetent or corrupt or guilty of assuming power not granted them ? You 1 mow the men. .Ire they such as Tillman alleges? Has any one else made similar or the same charges against them? Has any ono attempted to sustain Tillman in his warfare against them ? Do you believe that he. believes his own charges ? Can these things be true, and yet Tillman alone could discover them and can now see -ra? He declares that,they make decisions contrary to lav r. The difference between ?the Judges anc'l Gov. Tillman ia that they have made tho study of law a life work, while he has parhaps never spent a day altogether in reading law. They have no ends to accomplish farther than to ad min? ister the law wisely, faithfully and impar? tially, while his re-election is at stake and he uses these base charges to advance his selfish political ambitions. Don't take Tillman'a word for it, but let your own experience with and know? ledge of these Judges bo your guide in .^rating their worth as men and Jndges. Remember, too, that his opinion is based on the _ci that they have ruled against him. Which of the two is most likely to be correct, from a common sense stand? point?

Mubbay, Chairman Con? servative Democracy Anderson County, . S. G.?Dear Sir: In my absence, without any knowledge on my part of an inten? tion to do so, the Conservative Demooracy of this County honored me with a nomi? nation for the Legislature. Iam in full sympathy and accord with the purposes and methods of the Conservatives, and am using all c f my influence in behalf of our ticket and am -willing to make any sacrifice of my personal interests which would further the cause, for I believe the best interests of all classes of our citizens will be advanced by the election of this ticket; but I am situated so that I must decline to accept the nomination tendered to me, for my practice will not permit me to make the canvass nor serve if elected, without an injustice to others as well as to myself. There are other men who can make this race without the loss which it would entail on me, and I hope one of them will be selected in my place. In thus withdrawing from this race I do not mean to lose interest in this campaign or Indicate a lack of confidence in it, for I havo an abiding faith that right will triumph, and to my mind there is no question that the Conservatives are right in this contest. Wishing the whole ticket success, and promising to do my uttermost to accom? plish this result I am Yours truly, & M. Obb. 1 IN THE POLITICAL ARENA. Too first stir of excitement incident to the big- political meeting of Satur? day was the arrival of the candidates from Walhalla on the 1.15 train on Friday. They were met by a considerable crowd, and some cheering was indnlged in on their appearance. Ex-Gov. Sheppard was entertained by Maj. E. B. Murray, Col. Youmaus by Mr. J. D. Maxwell, Col. Orr by Dr. S. M. Orr, and Gov. Tillman, Gen. Farley, Superintendent May field and Mr. Benet were comfortably quartered at Ho? tel Chiquola. Congressman George Johnstons came j down with the party and registered at the j Chiquola. ! . On Friday night Gov. Sheppard and Col. Youmans were serenaded at the res dence of Maj. Murray and responded to the compliments of the enthusiastic crowd with some excellent remarks. That Saturday was to be a great day in the political history of the County every? body realized, and excepting the serenade above spoken of little was done or said of a public character on Friday, and the people were evidently awaiting the com? ing of Saturday as the overshadowing event of importance in the political cam? paign in reference to Anderson County. Saturday morning broke with a float? ing cloud here and there, and a pleasant breeze blowing. It was suggestive of an autumn morning, and the refreshing br?eze continued throughout the day and did much to subdue the beat of an August day. TJy sun rise vehicles began pouring in and 3,000 or more people came to the city to hear the speaking. The order observed by the immense crowd was as nearly perfect as could have been, and es peciallyso at the stand. Gov. Sheppard received the best attention of any speaker, and told the crowd that it was the largest and best behaved he had addressed in a two months' campaign and warmly commended them for it. We cannot speak in too .high terms of the good behaviour observed, but it must be remembered that as citizens of Ander? son County every man present owed the duty to himself and to his County to ob# serve and maintain order. We cannot-better give an account of the meetings than by clippings from the dally papers that had reporters here. The Rev. Chas.B< Smith made a fervent, prayer and Chairman Latimer and Geo. E. Prince, Esq., of the Committee on arrangements, strongly urged attention and fair play for the speakers; Atlanta Journal: The largest meeting, and one of the most orderly in tho pres? ent State campaign was held in Anderson to-day. Over two thousand of the four thousand white voters of the County, a large majority of them Tillman men, were present. Enthusiasm ran high, but the order was perfect, thanks to the urgent appeals of the speakers and the presence of seventy five extra constables. i At half-past ten o'clock Gov. Tillmsn was driven to the speaking ground In a six-horse wagon decorated with the pro? ducts of the soil, and carried on the stand on the shoulders of six of his brawny supporters amid the wild cheers of the crowd. Ex-Governor John C. Sheppard was the first speaker. He made a calm, logical argument, and was listened to with re? spectful attention, hut with little enthusi? asm. .Tillman was the next speaker. Before he rose the crowd rose to their feet and yelled themselves hoarse. When he ad? dressed the crowd there was another wild outburst. The meeting was evidently with the Governor and took every oppor? tunity to show it. Tillman's speech was a defence of his administration and an at? tack on the Conservative tioket. In conclusion Tillman declared that this was a fight between capital and labor, be? tween Democracy and Republicanism. . Atlanta Constitution: Governor Shep? pard was the first speaker. He is a law? yer and was Governor of the State once for a abort time, having succeeded to it when Governor Thompson resigned to accept the assistant secretaryship of the Treasury under Cleveland. He made a temperate and conservative speech of an hour, arguing that the growth of cor? porate institutions, which it had been claimed he represented, diminished the burdens of farmers. He said the far mers of South Carolina were in as good condi? tion as was ever, known. '1 '-lo argued against a Constitutional Convention which Tillman favors Iii or? der to regulate the vote in the State by the adoption of an educational and property qualification. He said an educational qualification would disfranchise many whites and a property qualification many others. ?'Why," said he, "fifteen per cent of our white voters can neither read nor -vrite, and an educational qualification would not be just" To eliminate the ne? gro from politics might be, but he was not in favor of doing so to the Injury of a large per cent of white voters. Ben. Tillman is perhaps the best stamp speaker in America. < He favored increasing the poll tax to $3 to shut out negro votes and to increase the school fund. The crowd was with him in this. The Sheppard crowd, he said, had not more than a fourth of the white vote of the State. "They could not beat us even if they ran as independents and tried to poll the whole negro vote." said he. "They are tainted with Republican? ism. They want to get back in to go to stealing again. We must get a Constitu? tional Convention and eliminate the negro, for we don't knew when this crowd will try to combine with the negro." Greenville News'. The most orderly meeting of the State campaign was held hereto-day. The attendance amounted to nearly thirty-five hundred persons with the followers of the governor in the majority. The political sentiment in this County is not far from being equally divided. The largest number of votes ever polled here is 4,000 and the conserv? atives claim 1,000 names on their rolls. Some disorder was anticipated here to? day, but such precautions were taken that there was no outbreak. Forty special constables and thirty extra police assisted in taking care of the crowd. Governor Tillman held a levee in the hotel this morning and a perfect sea of Till m an i tes poured in and out of his room for a half hour, blockading the corridors and stairways. Their performance in the shape of tobacco expectoration cost the executive committee the nice little sum of $25. Governor Tillman made a very "vigorous" speech, full of vitriol. The feature of it was this affidavit that he j read: "State of South Carolina, Anderson County. ''Personally appeared before me W. L. Snipes, who being duly sworn, upon his oath says that he was at the Cedar Grove meeting, and upon his return ha was sent for by Capt. E. A. Smyth, the presi? dent of the Pelzer mills, and informed that he was discharged on account of his presence at that meeting. Sworn to and subscribed to by me this 12th day of Au? gust, 1892. "W. L. SNrPES." "D. H. Russell, T. J. A, C. (L. S.)" The governor added that he understood I that twenty-two of these operatives had I boon treated likewise. In refutation of the above affidavit read what President I Smythe says, in reply to a telegram: "Four men were discharged by onr ! superintendent for absenting themselves I from onr work on Monday without pro? viding arrangements. I understand that two of them are Sheppard and Orr men, and that the other two for Tillman. I don't know which they were. No man has ever been discharged from Pelzer factory for refusing to vote for Sheppard or Orr, or for attending political meetings. As many men were spared from the mill Monday as could be possibly arranged for end keep the mills running. Those who absented themselves without the consent of tha Superintendent weso discharged without investigation as to what faction they belonged to or where they w<Mji," Columbia States Qov. Sheppard said that the State of Massachusetts is not blessed with lands or water power su? perior to those in South Carolina, yet the people have so built up their industries in the former State that they pay annually ?128,000,000 in wages to the laboring classes whereSouth Carolina pays 82j000, 000. Tbera is more corpofaie wealth in' the County of Spartanbnrg than in any other Con ity in the State. What is the' result? . In Spartaaburg the amount of taxes paid annually by all the people w $124,000. Of this the farmers pay $29,000, and the balance, outside of tha polls, is paid by the corporations and mercantile interests. So you see that the farmers pay little or much in direct proportion .to the taxes paid by corporate institutions. In proportion as their wealth develops do your burdens diminish. Our industries will not be developed as long as the people abroad believe that the Administration is unfriendly to in vestors. You would not go to a State where the Governor declared that the Legislature is incompetent and the courts corrupt. Yet Governor Tillman has pub? lished all over South Carolina tbat tbe I supreme court of the State has rendered j opinions contrary to law. If he had j made up his mind to inflict the most grievous blow in his power on South Carolina he could not have done better i when he declared that onr Legislature and courts are irresponsible. Governor Sheppard said that six years ago he had made a recommendation to the Legisla? ture, the purposo of which was to secure equality of taxation, to bring all property up to the line where it would be made to bear its just proportion of the taxes. That recommendation was practically the very same recommendation tbat Governor Till men will make to-day. Governor Sheppard made a powerful argument against a constitutional con? vention. Such a convention has the power to put its work into effect at once or to refer it back to the people for ratifi? cation. He told the orowd that if any of them doubted that it was Tillman's pur? pose to keep it from being submitted Sack to the people to isk him about it when he spoke. Tillman's purpose is to have adopted by that cony em ion an educational or a property qualification upon voting. Over 13,000 white persons in this State above the age of 21, cannot write their names. About twenty-five per cent of the voters are not worth property enough to entitle them to vote order a property qualifica? tion. Accordingly tbe adoption of limi? ted suffrage wor Id disfranchise thousands of our people. You would then be sub? jected to the prmciple of taxation without representation, and that is the thine your forefathers fought against in the War of the Revolution. Governor Tillman's plea for such dis franchisement is a plausible one, but his remedy is a horrible one. There are many things in our Constitu? tion which should be changed, and they can be remedied by amendment. While discussing tbe $3 poll tax ques? tion some one asked Governor Sheppard what was something better. He replied if he could not find anything better he would certainly not suggest anything worse. If in any community the schools did not run as long as the people wished all they had to do under the present law was to have a school district laid off and get the judgment of their community as to how much more money is needed and vote it This would put the burden on that particular community. . Voice?Are you in favor of abolishing the 2-mill school tax ? Governor Sheppard?No. He then stated that he had received a letter from home saying tbat there was illness in his family, and on that account he would have to leave Anderson by the next train. He assured the crowd tbat they had given him such good attention that he bad had a bettor opportunity to discuss the issues to-day' than at any other time during the campaign. [Cries of "Good speech I" as he sat down.] News and Courier: Governor Tillman said Orr had to ask his directors whether he might run for office. His directors were his conscience, his brain and the people of tbe State. It had been charged that capital would not come to the State as long as he criticised tbe Legislature and the Judges. He did not believe capi? tal would seek a State where the news? papers did so much lying on the Gover? nor. Written questions were sent to the stand and answered by the Governor as follows: Question: Why did you wait so long to pay your taxes? Tillman: The State owed me two months' salary and the treasury was looked. I thought I would be a fool to go and borrow money or sell cotton to pay taxes when the State owed me four times as much. Question: Where were you during the war? Tillman: I know a Haskellite wrote that Haskell asked mo that at Columbia and I told him that I lost my eye in 1864 and was a paralytic when the war closed. Yet this cowardly skunk comes here and asks me such a question. Question in writing: Will you, endor? sing the Ocaia demands, advise the men of this meeting who vote for you to also vote for Cleveland ? Tillman: The idea of this man talking at this late day about anybody but Cleve? land being voted for. We are not going to play Haskellism in national politics. Question in writing: Are you in favor of a delegate to tbe State Convention who is in favor of the Third Party to. nomi? nate a Gpvernor and Presidential elec? tors? Tillman: Every man who votes in the Democratic primary is a Democrat or a perjurer. After a delegate is elected by Democrats -how dare he go back on the men that sent him there. Question in writing: Are you in favor of the Citadel? > Tillman: It is the best high school in the State supported at the public ex? pense. The University is a good institu? tion. Somehow it has lost favor with the people and they don't send their sons there. But it is just as good as it ever was. Augusta Chronicle: Several persons near the. stand on Uovernor Tillman's left were talking and he looked at them and remarked that he knew there were some empty heads tbat were obliged to let off steam. Laughter ensued and a man out on the edge of the crowd shouted hurrah for Sheppard at the Governor. The Governor said: "Honestly, if I was as lonesome as yon over there, I swear to God I would have the decency to hush." Greenville Neu\s: Colonel You mans then spoke. He said Tillman told tbe people of Walhalla that tbe test for Coun? ty candidates should be their allegiance to Tillman and thus took the extreme and arrogant position of one citizen setting himself and his tenets up as tbe true test of morals and statesmanship, patriot? ism and Democracy; of one citizen as? suming the advanced position of beingthe great public mentor whose individual sa? gacity surpassed the combined wisdom of the public. Colonel Yonmans said that Tillman had to-day hedged and dodged on the question of qualifying suffrage. At Yorkville he came out squarely and told the peoplo if they did not like such a measure to vote against him. Colonel Youmans showed that Tillman was fixing to divide tbe peo? ple of tbe State in arraying the common people against the "aristocracy," labor against capital. He was the apostle of that very Gospel which he himself declared wonld bring negro domination. Columbia Rtg?ter; General Farley was unusually humorous, and revived the crowd from Yonman's morphio dose. He said the gist of the fight is that ( here is opposition to the attempt to equalize tax? ation. Even the assessment of sore-back mules was raised $1,000,000; yet no far? mer kicked or went into a lawsuit over it. Yet, when the administration tried to make the banks pay their just taxes, they went into Court and said their surplus must not be touched. The other side propose nothing; they simply attack Tillman. He then itemized the good ac? complished by the Tillman administra? tion. White people in the country work the roads together, and in tbe cities all pay the commutation tax. He made glow? ing eulogy of the character ahd patriotism of the poor white men in South Carolina in peace and war. Tillman makes mis? takes, but he is true to the platform and principles on which he was elected. Augusta Chronicle: Col. Orr was the next speaker. He said tbat Farley tried his best to distract Youmans' attention from Tillman and make him notice Far? ley. Youmans was too good a marksman to waste buckshot on sparrows. [Laugh? ter.] Voice; "Dldyou say the men wfco voted tor Tillman were fools?" Orr?"Whoever says I did, tolls an in? famous lie." Col. Orr tackled TiUman's statement about Gower, of Greenville, being defeat? ed for re-election as a school trustee be? cause he was a Tillmanito. He said the reason the people voted against him was that he bought a lot for $200, and then sold it to the schools for $1,000, and that he had appointed his nephew a teacher at $80 per month, while the other teachers got only $25. Voice?"What about discharging oper? atives from the Piedmont factory 7" Orr-^?*Whoever says they, were dis? charged because of their political opinions tells a lie.

Renet, tba next speaker, said that, in his opinion, SoutCi Carolina had never had the equal of James u, Orr as a solic? itor, but that he was prosecuting a bad case this time.

Grecnville Navs. As will be remembered, Governor Till? man read, at Anderson Saturday, with much parade, the affidavit of one Snipes, who a wore that ho had been discharged from the Pelzer mill for going to the Shady Grove meeting. President Smyth, of Pelzer, yesterday telegraphed Governor Tillman as follows: Gov. B. It. Tillman, Abbeville, 8. C: In your speech at Anderson on Saturday you read* un affidavit of W. L. Snipes, stating I Jhad discharged him from the employ of the Pelzer mill be* cause he attended the Cedar Grovs meeting. This statement of Snipes is false, as I was absent from South Carolina when he voluntarily left the employ of the company, and as an act of justice to the Pelzer company and my? self I ask you to re<id the affidavits below at the meeting in Abbeville, and the statement from me, confirmed by them, that Snipes returned to Pelzer this morn? ing seeking employment; that he had left Pelzer before I arrived this morniug and that the first I knew of the matter was by information that you had read Snipes' affidavit at Anderson: "State op South Carolina, ) "County of Anderson, j "Personally appeared before me, A.

"Further, that said Snipes is a minor, and not a voter, and he (Cobbj had no knowledge that Snipes attended the Ce? dar Grove meeting; and furthermore, that Capt.

C, Augnst 43.?The j Third party is hanging over the political unity of the Democracy in Sooth Caro? lina like the sword of Damocles. A slight stir in a certain direction will bring the sword down with all of its force, but whether the blow will strike anything Is' the all-important question. There is no mistaking the fact that there is a decided Third party sentiment i n this State among a certain class of Al? liance men. A census of the present dominant element in politics in this State will show that fully 90 per cent of its strength is made up of LUtra-Alliance men, the.balance being enronio office seekers, who have never been successful with any of the other parties, and Green backers. This morning I bad a talk with one of the most pronounced Third party ites in the State. He said that the strength of the movement in South Carolina was very much underestimated. At tho first poll it would be seen that there 4s very much more dissatisf? action with existing parties than many anticipated. The Piedmont sec? tion would show the strongest Third party strength. He accounted for it by saying that the people of the up-country were worked up over the intolerance of the parties of the day, and that tbore has been a spirit and tendency against the present parties as far back as 1884. . "Will there be a Third party conven? tion ?" was asked.. "Well, that 's a matter yet to be decid? ed and depends upon circumstances. I do not know that any definite plans have been made. South Carolina will proba? bly do something, as every other South? ern State has taken action. Most of the States have already had conventions and nominated electors, and others have gone so far as to place a ticket in the field. South Caroljna may do like Georgia, nominate the electors at large in conven? tion and let-the Congressional districts select their own electors. There is a Jrreat deal going on that cannot be told ust now, but I suppose the time will soon come when everybody will know what is going on." There is one thing that has placed the Third party!ten in a rather awkward po? sition. There are men who are supposed .to be Third party it es who are running for ? Congressional and other offices. Should these men be successful in the Srlmaries there is no necessity for their eclaring for the Third party, and in the event of their defeat there is a strong prospect of their coming to the rescue of the recognized Third party workers. a power in politics, While the Anti-Prohibltion element in South Carolina is having very little to say, and is not taking any active part in the campaign, it is pretty safe to say thac its influence is going to be seriously felt sooner or later. The liquor dealers have a strong following of men who believe that the prohibitory laws would be an abridgment of their liberties and who would go almost as far as the liquor men, whose bread and butter depends on the continuance, of the liquor traffic. The Anti-Prohibitionists expect that there I will be a large proportion of voters who will not take any band in the prohibition fight, and not even take the trouble to cast a ballot one way or another. The "town" vote, it is generally thought, will be favorable to the liquor interest. can he keep his hands off. The report that Governor Tillman is in? teresting himself in behalf of Mr. W. C. Benet is not given much credence among the State house officials. They think that Governor Tillman will hardly Inter? fere with the award of the office of At? torney General. It is not thought that he can do himself any good by favoring any particular candidate, Assistant At? torney General Townsend is in the race to stay and is making a quiet canvass. He has been in Columbia for the past week, and he says that he has been get? ting up every morning before daybreak to try and clear up the accumulated busi? ness of the office. He expects to join the campaign party next week. Rattlesnake for Sapper. Trenton, Ga., August 12.?T. R. O'Neal and William Headrick caught a large rattlesnake alive, which had nine rattles and a button. After keeping him all day as an interesting prisoner, he was turned loose on the ground and allowed to show his dignity and dexterity for about two minutes, when a sudden stroke of the ax decapitated him. As Mr! O'Neal hung tho body to a limb and pro? ceeded to flay him, in the manner of turning a stocking wrong side out, many witnesses observed the serpent'B heart beating, his beautiful, elongated wind? pipe and lungs, and white, tender, fat flesh. Then talk of eating him began to be indulged in, which was first treated as a joke, and abhorred by the women pres? ent But Headrick and O'Neal assured each other that they were in earnest, and meant to haye an early supper of it. So they immediately cut up, washed, salted ana rolled in meal toe entire body, which made more than a skilletful. Headrick Eroved himself an excellent cook by aving the rattlesnake's flesh fried brown in exactly one hour after its decapitation. They had some good broad ready, and five hearty young men enjoyed a hearty meal, eating the entire mess. HsrZed into a Thresher. Celina, 0., August #,?John S. Shry hock and.Frank Day, who have beep on bad terms for some time, were threshing in a wheat field to-day, when Shrybock missed a sheaf of wheat, and the tines of his pitchfork struck Day, inflicting a bad wound. Day told Shrybock that If he did it again that he would throw bim into the threshing machine. Shrybock cut Day again, when the latter grabbed bim around the waist and pitched him head? long into the maobine. Storybook's body was mangled beyond recognition'. Day tried to escape but was caught and threatened with lynching. Soon after? ward Shryhock's brother arrived, picked np a pitchfork and plunged it three times into Day, causing instant death. He was j arrested and locked up. ? To Tillman Men. Elect Tillinau. Elect n legislature pledged to Tillman. That is what tbo Tillman bosses and mauagore aro telling you that you must do. Next year elect men to tbo constitu? tional convention who are compelled to obey Tillrnan. Don't Bay you won't do it. You ought to be and will be ashamed not to do it. After you have elected a man on dis? tinct issues you cannot go squarely back on him and say he shall not carry out his schemes. If you do so you class yourself as a coat tail swinger and "driftwood" supporting Tillmau because be is popular but helping to defeat his measures. No matter who you elect to the consti? tutional convection or what instructions you give. It your delegates go to the constitution? al convention and defeat tbe three dollars poll tax and the qualification for voting you will spend the 8100,000 the conven? tion will cost for nothing. But tbero is no danger of that. The convention will be confronted with the plain fact "the people in 1802 olected Gov? ernor Tillman squarely on the poll tax and qualification issue. By that election they said they wanted those thing*. You can't go back on it." Tho convention will adopt those plans of his. The delegates will not be afraid of consequences because tbe victimsof the new laws will be deprived of tbe power of voting. You men who have not a certain amount of property or education, you are beini: made fools of?especially you young men who have not yet had time to acquire property. You are being told there is no danger ?that you have the matter in your own hand and can defeat Till man's ideas while electing Tillman. But you can't. You vote for Tillman and you vote to take your votes from you and to impose tbe three dollars poll on yourselves. Extra taxes and no rights. You vote to enslave yourselves and to put yourselves nnder the heel of the ne ro you have helped to educate or who as been fortunate enough to gather somo property. It is just as plain as daylight. When the convention has acted you can't help yourself. Its action won't be submitted to the people for ratification. You will have mighty little to say in tbe matter, anyhow. Your representa? tives in the Legislature may oppose the constitutional convention, but with Tin? man's influence tbe representatives from other counties will probably force it. When the eleotion of delegates to that convention comes you may call out in agony and fear for anti help to defeat those who favor tbe extra poll tax and the dis franchisement, and you may get it in some counties, but other counties may and almost certainly will send delegates favoring those things. Then you will be gone. You will have no more to say. You will have to take what comes and when too late curse your own folly. You will be fooled, trapped, destroyed. You will look back then and know how you have been sold out by the false and emp? ty claim that in voting for Tillman you were voting against the "aristocrats" and rich men and for tbe poor men and tbe people. It may be a propeity or an educational qualification or both. Once let go your grip, once walk into tbe trap, and you cannot tell where it will go. It may get you either way, whether you be a poor man with some education or a learned man with no property. Every man who believes in tbe people, every man who does not want to see white men forced into political alliance with negroes and an attempt made to force tbem into social alliance, ought to bring these facts to the attention of every voter.?Greenville Newa. -<m i m ? Outcome of THImanlsm. Spartanbubo, S. C, August 14.?Our county candidates have finished up tbe first week of their campaign, and they have generally had a fair attendance. They first agreed that delegates nominat? ed for the State Convention should take part in tbe speaking, but after trying that two or three days tbe Tillmanite cahdidates concluded that they were los? ing by that arrangement,'and they re? scinded their former action and excluded them from the list of speakers. Another significant development of the campaign .Is the "Hooverlsm" that 1b proclaimed by some of the candidates. Your correspondent has not heard them, but disinterested men have reported that Sooialism in its worst form is adroitly proclaimed by some of tbe candidates. They seek to array labor against capital and proclaim that this is tbe poor man's fight against the rich. When Hoover was here with his incendiary talk, a few years ago, he only appealed to the negro. He had some white disciples, but they, were few. If he were to return now and make a few speeches he would find that he was far behind the times, and that he did not know how to stir up the animosi? ties and the destructive passions of our landless and moneyless classes half as well as the candidates. The people are taught to boycott towns, factories, banks and all corporations. Indirectly tenants and day laborers are taught to distrust landlords and employ? ers. The banks that charge over 8 per cent are held up as enemies of tbe poor man. The tenant infers from such teach? ing tbat when he rents forty acres of land worth $400 and pays $90 to $120 a year, tbat he is paying the landlord 2*?o 30 per cent on his invested capital. That is an oppression that should "rot be endured. During tbe speaking at one of tbe meet? ings one of the coat-tail swingers jumped up and said: "That's the way of it. It tk? poor against the rich. Just like it v/as in the war, the poor man had to do all the fighting and the rich man staid at home," Such base and slanderous sentiments are expressed at every meeting, and they go uurebuked by the Socialistic) members of tbe campaign crowd. The surprise is that so many well-to-do farmers fall in with these ideas when they know that this attempted combination of tbe hire? ling and tenant classes will in the end work against tbem. Such is the spirit of the campaign, and] such tbe teaching. Never in our history has there been such an effort to dissatisfy the laboring classes and to cripple the interests of the people, Some of the people go so far as to say they will have nothing to do with town merchants or anything else that bolongs to town. The feeling is getting so bitter that some persons will buy nothing unless it is Tillman truck. They are advised to boycott all merchants except those who shout for Tillman. A few days ago a farmer carried/a load of watermelons to Clifton, and a fellow stepped out of a store and said: "What sort of molons have you?" The innocent man replied, telling him tbe variety. The fellow said: "I don't mean that. Are they Tillman [melons?" The farmer said "they have nothing to do with that question, but I'm not a Tillman man." The reply was: "Drive on. We don't want you nor your melons," "Suoh is the feeling engendered here by artful men who have nothing to lose and all to gain. Factory hands are taught to distrust their employers; that they are dishonest, oppressive, cruel, tyranni? cal. Laborers are taught that employers will cheat and defraud them. Country people are taught that their greatest ene? mies are town people, whether toey live in a large or a small town, It is a fearful campaign of education, and it will re? quire years of patient and conservative work to efface the evil that is being ac? complished. ? It is said that artesian wells can be obtained even in tbe more arid portions of Texas at a very small cost. A corres? pondent of the Galveston News saw one at the Wayland settlement, somo twenty miles from Cisco, whioh spouts a strong stream through an inch and a quarter pipe, and it is but 86 feet in depth. He says that there are eighteen flowing wells in the immediate neighborhood, tho deepest of which is but 2Q? feet. ? The Georgia Democracy is aroused as it has not been since it threw off the yoke of Radicalism. This means a 50,000 ma? jority in October and November. Merit Wins. We desire to say to our citizens, that for years we have been selling Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption, Dr. King's New Life Fills, Bucklen's Arnica Salve and Electric Bitters, and have never handled remedies that sell as well, or tbat have given such universal satisfaction. We do not hesitate to guarantee them every time, and we stand ready to refund the purchase price if satisfactory results do not follow their use. These remedies have won their great popularity purely on their merits, gill Bros-, Druggists. A Safe Investment. Is one which is guaranteed to bring you satisfactory results,'or In case of failure a return of purchase price. On this safe plan you can buy from our advertised Druggist a bottle of Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption. It is guaranteed to bring relief in every case, when used for any af? fection of Throat, Lungs or Chest, such as Consumption, Inflammation of Lungs, Bronchitis, 'Asthma, Whooping Cough, Croup, etc., etc. Jt is pleasant and agreea? ble to taste, perfectly safe, and can always be depended upon.

Headquarters are to be estabg lisbed in New York and the capital stock of the new corporation, as stated, will be 812,000,000. Good people in the country in South Carolina who make their own jelly and preserves will not worry over the doings of this particular trust, but the amount of its capital is of interest. If the jolly and preserve business is worth the attontion of a twelve million dollar corporation, it ought to be worth tho at? tention of some of our orcbardists and farmers. There is not a pound of fruit wasted in South Carolina any season that would bring a paying price if care? fully preserved and put up in a neat pack? age. ?
