Thpv !iul tlie right to meet,
as p.nv number of Democrats liave.l
ami while tliov were of a different!
way of thinking from hundreds
of oilier Democrats, yet that is no
reason why they should nor bit accorded
the credit for having the
intuiv.?! of the State at heart. In
the samo way let this be accorded
other assemblages.
The action of the Conference wa>
conservative, an 1 the conservative
men in it evidently prevailed in their
views. Frankly, we see no foundation
for the position taken that this
Conference,meant to copvey the idea
that if a primary was not had there
mm d be a split in the party, and have
been informed by parties in it thai
there was no such intention.
'] i;e minority must submit to t'.ic
majority, and if the August Convention
ticci'b.3 against a primary, that
settioK the ijuestion. Any other
principle than this is fatal. The per
gunnel of the Committee appointed
to advise wilU Democrats who honestly
oppose Tillman's nomination is
ft guarantee tii.it extreme measures
will not be sanctioned.
A fair fight is all that is asked, and
the losing Mile must submit. This
Committee will issue an address this
week, which we confidently believe
will bo conservative in tone, while it
may be forcible.
in the heated condition of the canvase.
people on cither side are prone
to take what the newspapers say*as
aulhorativc. This is an improper
view. Those newspapers represent
their own \iewsonly.for there is no
paper in the State lhal is the author
ed organ of either side. It is therefore
unfair, unless there is authority for
its speaking, to take the expressions
of any paper as voicing the intentions
of either side.
Lot ns have fair dealing with each |
oilier. and jpvodue credit for patriotic
purpose. Every into patriot most
deplore l!:e condition in which the
party is now. and the earnest efforts
of us all should ho directed towaids
uniting i*. We are all of the same
political hcuseho)-', and white men.
and the unity of the party and main^
tennnee of white supremacy should
be tho grand cardinal principle which
must actuate and control us. The
conservative men of both sides must
act, and passion must be subordinate
to the go'-d of the State.

of the political contest tliut is now

prevailing m noum vuiuiiiid, ??
n1' . not. permit ourselves to lose
%Lt of the great idea which should
control every Democrat, and that is
that we cannot afford to divide, but
when this contest is over we must
come together and stand shoulder to
shoulder to maintain white suprem.
nev. We must not forget that this
is iho cardinal principle of our existence
as u party, and for it and to it
every energy and puipose must be
bent and exercised To achieve this
supremacy the gigantic struggle of
1870 whs directed, and in the victory
then achieved we fixed it as the grand

We arc in a crisis which must cause
every patriot to pause and consider.

to continue the contest to the point
of the nomination of their candidates.
but when a majority of the parly
has decided in favor of this or that
nominee, then the minority must
submit as gracefully as they can?
but submit they must. This is Democratic,
and any other course will be
promotive of untold misfortune.
The conservatism of both sides

THE SILVill' KILL
The resu't of die conference on the J
Silver bill, between the Senate aed j
House ol Representatives has result-J
ed in a compromise which has passed j
both houses and will doubtless be
signed by the President. We do!
not propose to go into the detads
of the bill It is not a free coinage i
measure, in that it icstrlets the pur-j
chase of silver to 4.i>00,0fto ouncesi
per month. Nor is it a good sub-!
stitute for the Bland bill, because it. j
leaves, after one your, [he purchase j
voluntary wit Li the Secretary ot' lhe;
Treasury.
It was so distasteful and unsr-tis-1
factory to the Democrats of both!
houses that, almost without cxcep-j
lion, they voted agaiusl it.
Once more, then, has the unfriend-j
liness of the administration and the,
power and influence of Wall street |
succeeded in defeating the great de- j
mauds of the people for silver and j
given n black eye to it as money. j
One of the most objectionable fea- j
turts in connection with this substitute
is the permitting parties who j
make contracts to discriminate
against silver and put contracts on a
gold basis.
The short, sharp and crisp speeches
of Voorhecs, Coke and Vest in the
Senate, in opposition to if. are models
of protest and sarcasm. They de
ride the gold barons ami the pusilan-j
imous conduct of Republican Sena-;
tors in denying the just rights of the
farming and laboriug classes of the
entire country.
John Sherman defended the measure
in an unsatisfactory speech, in j
which it is too evident lie is an op-:
ponent of silver a.- d, as of yore, fij
friend to gold ami its advocates,
against both metals as honest inoney.
^ j
The effect of the bill will be to;
put mono)' into the pockets of!
speculators, and depreciate silver.
The Alliance Exchange.

the State Alliance of South Carolina

lu regard to the successor of Col!

Irish Method of Saving Potatoes.'
When the potatoes are dug in Ire*!
land, they are immediately picked up
and deposited in a Lreiioh near by,
oii.uo ihvoo ft!et decn and two and a
half feet wide, and lieipcd very carefa
ly in pyramidal f Tin, pains being
taken to avoid bruising them. Straw
is tlien placed over Llicm to the depth
of two indies, and earth placed over;
the straw to tiio depth of about four
inches. Another layer of straw is
placed on top of this, and then more
earth on top again. This is done to J
exclude both air and sunshine. Ity
carefully saving Irish potatoes after
they arc ripe, in the Southern States, f
where two crops of these potato-sj
can be raado in one year, there would !
be no difficulty in securing good po*
tables for the farmers' table from j
January to January. The second
crop of Irish potatoes is planted!
from late in June to August. Tney J
should be sprouted under moist straw |
beforo planting ?Picayune.
The Primary.
We are in favor of the primary for
the nomination of all candidates
and delegates to the State Convention,
and had the Executive Commit
t.eo early in the campaign caked a
Convention to consider the matter
\vc would have favored it, I tit to
bring the matter up now after several
counties have already elected del- j |
egates to the September Convention, |
which was ended to nominate^ Statu!
ofiji-ers, we are opposed to il, and j
liopc the Convention will vote it'1

amount now claimed against, me,
iusteatPof $5,0.11.18 as reported by
the (I rand .Jurv, is $1,1011.1-1 as appears
by an oiilcial sta'oment from
the Comptroller General's ofllce,
which statement was prepared on
the -!!rd day of December, 1880, by
Mr. Winthrop Williams, the chief
clerk, and is now in niy possession.
Against the sum of $1,1011.14, I am
entitled to be credited with several
sinus, aggregating $1,11.1.84, as will j
show when the suit against uio !
comes to trial, and as I will take
pleasure in showing to any fair, j
minded man who will take the j
trouble to call at my oiiiee. Hesides
tliis sum of $1,115.St there is
due nie $100.00 on account of an error
in settlement which is conceded,
Wld for the 11 seal year, 188 j, which
makes altogether $1.21.1.81 to be I
credited on $1,400.4-1. leaving a b?|.
ancc of $100.00, which is represented
by cash in my hand as

behind in my accounts.
It is true tluit I di?l, during l!;o
first year or two that I have been in
nllice, indulge some persons in tiio !
payment of their taxes, therhy ho- j
coming myself responsible for the i
>3 / a ^
same, in some instances, those
ivhorn I indulged faihd to relieve j
me, and J had to pry their taxes 1
mit of my own hard earnings. I j
iinve already recovered a part, and
hope to recover more of what was
paid out by me. Hut whether I do
.ir no:, the county and State have
not lest thereby. I am not a defa
niter. if I were, I would not ofrer
myself as a candidate for remm
nation, hut would address myself
o the task of mnking good any 1
osscs which might exls'.
