Col, Dargan quits the race for
Senator and will devote himself to
educational work.
Old man Grover has been trotted
out again to say he is a Democrat.
The country does not need his brand
of Democracy.
The first judicial act of Judge De
Vore was to grant bail to a negro
who had killed another negro. This
is a bad start for. the new judge.
Senator Tillman's speech on the
methods of Roosevelt will have wido
circulation as a campaign document.
It should be read by Democrats
and studied by Assistant Republi
cans.
The Augusta Chronicle says "it
is now said that ninety per cent of
the Democrats in Congress are
against Mr. Bryan." This sounds
Eke one ?f the New York World's
yarns. _
The Charleston Post thinks "that
South Carolina will send to Denver
an uninstructed delegation which
will vote as a unit >!or Bryan on the
first and only ballot taken in the con
vention.
A Kansas minister says he would
rather diink a bottle of red ink than
a bottle of beer. No doubt he is
right. We have heard that they sell
terrible stuff in prohibition Kansas
for beer._
Onb hears a great deal about this |
time as to the cost of the Easter bon
nets of the ladies, but the sweet creat
ures just can't get along without
them, and the horrid men will just
have to grin and bear it.
The Greenville News says Grover j
Cleveland is the greatest citizen of j
the land. Will our esteemed cotem
porary name just one .really great
thing that its greatest citizen has
done during his long life of seventy
one years?
"What is thir we hear?" exclaims
the Augusta Chronicle. "Democrat
ic congressmen to force a prohibi-1
tion plank into the national party
platform!'' You can hear most any
thing these days, but that does not |
make it true.
The presidential boomlet of Fair
childs got quite a jolt in Indianna j
recently. His private secretary was \
defeated for a congressional nomina
tion on the seventh hundredth ballot
in the Eleventh District Republican
Convention of that State.
A Republican Senator recently)
made the statement that the corri
dors of the capital at Washington
are infected with slick anr! slimy
individuals. We have no doubt but
this is true, and the only way to get
rid of them is to turn the rascals
out. _
Senator Tillman's speech on Pres
ident Roosevelt and his methods,
extracts of which we published on
Friday, as an oratorical effort will
rank with Cicero's oration against
Cataline and Phillippics of Demos
thenes. The Washington Post and
other papers says it was a great
speech and was heard by a full Sen
ate and packed galleries.
It is said that Attorney-General
Lyon, after serving his second term
in his present office, expects to suc
ceed Gov. Ansel, and, after serving
two years as Governor, expects to
run against Senator Till man a:id de
feat him. The young man has some
political ambition sure enough, but
when he bucks B <n Ti1'mad he will
have it all knockM our. .' nim.
The News and Corn ier s ys it be
lieves that the people of South Car
o'fna (\o nit wisn Mr. Bryan nomi
nated at Leaver, and is confident
that a dek'Aratiun could be elected
who would not vote for his nomina
t n. If The News and Courier
really believes this it must be su
premely happy, because the w'U of,
the people will be recorded when ,:
the Democratic State Convention.
Politicians and Newspapers.
After "cussing" out the Demo
cratic members of Congress as po
litical cowards and sneaks The
News and. Courier pays its respect
to some politicians and newspapers
in South Carolina. "In South Car
olina" says The News and Courier,
I "we have politicians and newspapers
who despise and condemn Mr. Bry
an with an intensity not rivalled by
The News and Courier (for The
News and Courier at least admires
Mr. Bryan as a person of good mor
als and intentions,) who months ago,
pef ore the struggle in this State had
begun, ran away from all endeavors
to prevent his capture of the South
Carolina delegation. Reason is plen
tiful to ground the opinion that the
Governor, half the Congresional
delegation and a majority of the
State's newspapers are opposed to
the election of a delegation in favor
of Mr. Bryan's nomination, but the
opposition of some of them is of
pale, white-livered and tremulous
description that counts for naught
in a contest." Wonder how the
"Governor, half the Congressional
delegation and a majority of the
State's newspapers" relish this ter
rible arraignment of their political
sincerity. May be the "Governor,
half the Congressional delegation
and a majority of the State's news
papers" have heard from the peo
ple since they expressed themselves,
and finding that the people are al
most unanimously for Bryan, and
feeling that it was useless to oppose
their wishes, have fallen in line like
sensible people ought to do and will
help carry out the popular will.
"Not Follow the Crowd."
The News and Cyurier proposes
to fight Bryan to the last ditch. It
says: "But we confess if the oppos
ers of Mr. Bryan must raise a white
flag before hostilities commence be
cause their inclination is to view
the battle from afar, there is little
inducement to persevere. Yet we
do persevere. We concede nothing.
We are hopeful that an uninstructed
delegation composed of men of open
minds may be sent to Denver from
South Carolina, and so we urge that
Charleston, a soundly Democratic
community, aware of the reasons
that support its faith, send to the
State Convention in Columbia dele
gates canable of expounding Dem
ocracy, and who will not halt to in
quire how the battle goes until it is
over. This community has no sym
pathy with the Bryan vagaries, and
it should keep its record straight?
not 'follow the crowd.' " The New6
and Courier is very wrong. The
leaders of Charleston may have no
sympathy for Bryan, but there are
plenty of good true Democrats in
Charleston who are anxious for the
nomination and election of Bryan.
Charleston has tried the experiment,
"not follow the crowd" once already
to her cost when many of the so-call
ed Democrats down there voted for
McKinley, the Republican, in pre
ference to Bryan, the Democrat,
and we had hoped she was done with
such foolisness. But some people
learn slowly.
National Committeeman
The News and Courier concedes
the untruth but doubts the "absur
dity" of the story from Washington
that the State convention is to be
packed, Senator Tillman ousted as
national committeeman, and Col. J.
C. Haskell elected. It wishes to
know if Tillman is never going to
turn loose a job, and names a number
of persons that it considers capable
of holding down the office of nation
al committeeman. The "absurd"
part of the yarn, as The State saw it,
was the suggestion of a secret effort
to reestablish factional lines.
It is quite true that there are sev
eral persons in South Carolina that
could discharge the lady-like duties
of the office of national committee
man with universal satisfaction, al
though we do not endorse all those
our contemporary suggests, but it is
also true that Senator Tillman is the
most conspicuous representative of
the party that South Carolina has,
and that however he may have
blundered in dealing with South Car
olina matters, he has generally ac-1
ceptably represented the spirit of the
rank and file of the people in nation
al political affairs. He has, in fact,
the highest claim to the job.?Col
umbia State.
Every paper in the United States,
lfce the New York World and New
York Sun, which are defenders of
special privileges and trusts, are op
posed to Bryan. There are a few
such papers in the South and they
too oppose Mr. Bryan. This shows
plainly who the people should choose
for President.
The after effects of the panic is
becoming more disasterous to Re
publican -osperity, although the
sacrod tana is still suppo: ?d to)
guarantee good times according to
the IdTt Republican national piat
form. Congressman ?VTiett, of
New York, in a speech in Congress
