(JOVilRNOK TILLMAN'S INYIUIRAL
ADDRESS. s
T.efore an audience of four thousand pco- s
pie on the 4th instant 15. R. Tillman was '
inaugurated Governor of South Carolina, 1
and delivered his inaugural address. It is '
t
a paper replete with research, clearness of
comprehension, and forcible suggestion.? (
Bold, and yet just, it is tree from mere
carping criticism, and his bitterest oppon- ,
ent will fail to find in it the acrimony which
characterized many of his utterances during 1
the campaign.
Impressed with the magnitude of the re
sponsibility resting upon him, he ilevoics
himself to the subjects under consideration
Kith an evident desire to be fair and at the
same time correct, and seeks to probe to
the bottom. Some of his suggestions may
not be practicable, but they are well put,
and he courts discussion, and difference
if need be. on the part of the Legislature,
assuring them that he has no piidc of
opinion.
Jlis add:ess is an agreeable surprise iu
its tone, and barring a tinge now and theu
of egotism, is a State paper of great force
and ability. There is no clap-trap or stump
orator style about it, but the dignitied re
pose and keen analysis of the student and
logician. He has devoted his time since
the election to a study of the condition and
needs of the State, and boldly asserts his
views and calmly gives a reason for every
change suggested.
It is the most tlaborate inaugural delivered
since 1876, and stamps him as a man
of very decided ability, and we trust presages
a conservative and progressive administration.
It should be read by every citizen of
'1 A 1 ~ ?III KavafnM nnlv mnke
IOC iMHIL* HIJU WO win m^aiu.v....,
a rutining comment on its details.
Ilis declaration 011 the negro question
and denunciation of lynch law will go far
towards assuring them of his intention to
do them justice and protect their rights.
We are not familiar enough with the
school problem to appreciate his plaD as to
having square school districts, but one familiar
with the scheme with whom we have
couversed, regards it r. good one.
His opinion of the necessity of a College
for the women of the State, and tribute to
and recommendations as to the Winthrop
training school, are eminently 'proper and
forcible.
His views on the modes of assessing and
equalizing taxes, are well conceived and
expressed, and if a wholesome change em
be effected much good will be accomplished,
for a change is certainly needed.
He appreciates the necessity of sustaining
the credit of the State, aud while his views
may le rather chimerical as to reducing
taxes by increasing phosphate royalty and
pledging the income from this source as
security for the delt, yet they are worthy
of consideration, and if practicable would
been reformers, but Democrats and competent,
is patriotic and an olive branch to
heal differences in the party, and we trust
his advice will bo heeded. Much good will
ensue tbereform. ..
THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.
On the first instaut Benjamin Harrison,
by I Divine permission and Republican
money President of these United States,
presented his annual message to Congress
as required by the Constitution, and wc
have scanned it most carefully to find ?
single redeeming virtue, forcible ideu 01
patriotic impulse in it, and have failed. It
is in keeping with the brain and heart of
its author, and stamps him as lacking in
the former and devoid of the latter. It
has not the virtue even of meaningless generalities
or platitudes which arc so often the
refuge^of weakness, but makes up in vemom
what it laoks in force. He might well be

nothing, forgets nothing, nnd is as blind
&s a bat and obstinate as a mule.
The recent elections have neither taught
l.iia a le-son nor enforced a morul. Wedded
to fixedness Jof purpose, and that purpose
to maintain Republican rule by means of
monopolistic contributions, he waddles
along regardless of consequences, and in
common with the leaders ot the paity, with
the exception of Blaine, is so befogged by
jariisanry and sectional hate that he will
not see the handwriting on4tbe wall or take
eii to tin- popui.ir verdict. With the per {_
naciiy of it drowning mau he clings to the 1
arid" and the Lodge Bill, at.d neither re- t
:iuls, regrets nor acknowledges the error I
r unwisdom in favoring tho one and at- t
suipting to force the other. t
lie says the liinlf Kill lias not had a fair .
howing and that il is too early yet to fore- 1
ee its consoqiierccs. If the ugiavution it
las eausid and loss entailed grow in proper- 1
ion to Mill further enlightenment the 1
miple will receive as time progresses, and
.heir anger and contempt Continue to in
Mease, the cyclone of the -4th of November
ivill be by 11>9-2 but n gent !e breeze. And yet
ie and his parly seem oblivious to the warning
and lesson of tie* late elections, and arc
Apparently ucu-rnmicu iu uj;m n, ??i v..
tliis iino, even down to the last ditch of political
des'ruction.
lie seems to contemplate with satisfaction
that this Bill "will be the quicken in? and
enlargement of our manufacturing industries,"
but has not a word for the downtrodden
and oppressed wage-earner and
consumer, and with the falsity and folly of
all high protectionists, has the impudence
to say it will give "more constant employment
and better wages for our working
people," when a cut of wages and shutting
down "f mills has been taking place, lie
deprecates any futlher tinkering with the
Tariff, and says "there is neither wisdom
nor justice in the suggestion that the subject
ol Tuiiff revision shall be aguiu opened."
Oh! no. It suits the gentry out of
whom Quay and Dudley "fry the fut," and
there.'ore it should stand. A Democratic
Congress will take issue with inv I.ord who
speaks so patronizingly of "our people" as
though he and his imps owned or carried
them in their pockets, and endeavor to bring
relief to them.
lie urges tho passage of subsidies in the
interest of the monopolists, Hnd it matters
not whether such legislation inr-ronses I lie
burden of the people. And then, as a sop
to those who are kicking against the Tariff,
he advocates the reciprocity tr? aty fad, I
which is un acknowledgement that the Tariff
is restricting the business of the country
and is a curse.
lie is very urgent in his advocacy of the
Foice llill, and urges Congress to pass it,
and in the face of the quiet, free and un
* * * <i.A
be a relief.
IIis increase of the poll tax for school
purposes, and raising the phosphate royalty,
are uot measures of reduction, but are certainly
on the line, as he expresses it, "that
niggardness is often false economy."
His resume of the condition of the Asylum
and the Penitentiary, and suggestions
us to remedying certain defects in both institutions,
are r.ot altogether uovel, yet are
on their face just aud proper.
IJis onslaught on the Coosaw Phosphate
Mining Company is justified by the mariner
in whkh it acquired its rights originally,
and under the opinion of Attorney Gener.
1 J 1* Ja
ais connor, r.arie aim ru|? it is nw?m> u?
an effort to test the question as to whether
it has a lease which expires next March or
vested rights in perpetuo. lie speaks in no
uncertain souud on this and every question
he touches, aud perspicuity marks Lis every
utterance.
He is outspoken in advocating an appropriation
for the Citadel, and equally plain
in suggesting that the University he reduced
to a classical and literary institution,
as the Cletnson College, which is a pet
measure with the farmers, can be utilized
for all scientific and practical purposes.?
In regard to abolishing the University system
much can be said pro and con, and
the Legislature ought to give tho matter
gruve consideration. TheClemson College
is in a fair way to become a success, and if
it can be made so, will prove a beneficence
to the State.
UWe agree with him in regard to the
necessity for a constitutional convention.
The address rises above any suspicion of
demagogisi.v, aud is pitched on a high
plane. It is thoughtful, able, and earnest,
and does Governor Tillman great credit.
We commend it to the thoughtful attention
of our people. Ollice, &s a rule, promotes
conservatism, and the expressions of the
Governor in recommending the Legislature
to select for office not men only w ho have
ODSirucieu recenr elections m nic nuum,
which completely refute the necessity for
such a law, says "the nood of sucli a law
lias'manifested itself in many parts of the
couniry. and its wholosorae restraints and
penalities will he useful in all." This means
chicaner)', deviltry and expenso, and is the
surest evidence of the moribund condition
of his paily. Hut wc arc not yet convinced
that the Senate will respond to his suggestion.
And if it does the House Hill will be
so amended as to disappoint Harrison. ltted
and Hoar in their venomous purposes.
Of course he is strong on the pension
grabs and steals, and to fix the soldier vote
hesitates not to recommend any amount of
Treasury depletion. The financial blood
can flow in huge streams, and devil take
the tax payer so long as it secures the
Grand Army. The business uieu and tax
payers are getting heartily sick of this political
clap-trap, and are determined to call
a halt some where. Worthy soldiers and
their widows should be pensioned, but not
every deseiter, bumcierand bounty jumper.
The fact is the attorneys are stirring up
the matter, and such fellows as Tanner are

fie felicitates the country on our linrniouious
f.-reign relations, abundance of crops
and absence of plagues.
The message has one virtue?it is comparatively
brief and devoid of rhetoric; but,
like i:s author, is as a whole, a bobtail, unsatisfactory,
weak production, and reflects
no credit on him.
It is unpleasant to harshly criticise the
Chief Magistrate of a great country, but a
smaller, weaker ruan never occupied the
['residency, lie has personal hon slv. and
hus never been accused of j ersonal dirty
conduct, but as a Statesman and ofllcial
he is small-souled, partisan and pig-headed.
Governor Tillman's luaugural.
From the Columbia Register of the

account of the inauguration :

At 1 :10 the band played an intcrcsting

open doorway came the Sergeautsat

the sword of St?to and the latter

minutes, and suddenly the Sergeantat-Arms

Increase in the Internal Revenue Receipts?The
Public Debt Increased.
Washington, Nov. 29.?The collections
of the internal revenue during
the first four months of the current
fiscal year aggregate $51,02 V
289, being an increase of $4,2-15,290
over the collections during the corresponding
period of list year.
There was an increase of 81,653.477
on spirits, $1,193 filGon tobacco, and
$1,301,550 on fermented liqti rs.
It is estimated at the Treasury De
pat tment that tho public debt, loss
the cash in the Treasury, has been
increased about $1,000.01)0 since the
fi.st instant, due principally to the
heavy payments during the month.
A Cold Fact.
The modern designer of thenicklein-tlie-slot
machine is dead. lie died

died hundred of years ago in obsou*itv
and poverty, as explained in
tho Herald some time ago. The
irony of fate is very cr tel. Neither
inventor was shrewd enough to make
money out of his machine, but it
has enriched thousands. It is so
with newspapers They boom their
section and make fortunes for many,
but if the editor gets more than a
meagre support from his work he is
fortunate.?Roanoke Herald.
