THE XANNING TIMES. 3&Man inig BW . CL WEDNESDAY. JANUARY 24, 1891 Governor Tillman is in Washington looking after the direct tax fund, and he will appear before the House Judiciary committee to explain the attitude of the railroads in this State that are in the hands of receiver. The South Carolina delegation are trying t.) get Congress to take some action in this matter, and the Governnr is there assisting them. We hear the cry of hard times from severy corner, and yet we notice there is aigood amount of cash in circula. tion. Just let an article in a store he advertised at a price the people consid er cheap, and it will not be long before the hand will go down into the pocket for the necessary cash. The cash trade Is better in Manning this Janu ary than it was this time last year and our merchants' cash books will prove it. It is. being whispered about con siderably that Hon. James E. Tindal will be offered a professorship in Clemson College. Mr. Tindal would be an ornament in this institution and his training and ability would give Clemson, should he accept, a man that will be an honor. For the good ol the young men throughout the State we hope if a professorship in Clemson College is tendered Mr. Tindal that h will accept. His piety, education, and liberal views all go to make him s first-class professor. Secretary Carlisle, after attending a banker's banquet in New York, re .turned to Washington fully impres sed with the idea that the governmeni must issue $50,000,000 worth of bonds What a difference there is betweer Senator Carlisle, of Kentucky, anc -Seeretary Carlisle, of President Cleve land's Cabinet. United States bond, are non-taxable property, but mules cows, horses, farming implements and -homes are taxable property. Then who are the tax-payers of this greal country, those that invest their mone3 in such things as will afford ease and luxury or those that invest in the things that go to make a livelihood for the country? ' The men that have accumulated im mense fortunes, are kicking against E measure now before Congress, whict proposes to put a tax ' on incomes 6 over $4000 President Cleveland is al so reported as being against the meas ure. The.poor man is taxed on ever3 thing he has, not even the bed upot which he rests after a hard day's toi escapes taxation, but the rich mat that has his money invested in gov ernment securities escapes. Eigh here is where the doctrine of equa rights to all, and special privileges t< none should come mn. If a man tha has a horse which he works to provid' meat and bread for his family must b4 taxed is it right that a man that has bond that affqrds him pleasure an< profit to go untaxed. -Gratifying, indeed, was it, to us t< receive the well wishes of our friend. last Thursday morning after the ap pearance of The Times. It is encour aging to feel that one's efforts at pro motion are noted by the people..- But friends, well wishes in the shape o kind words wili not do by thiemselves In order for them to h-ave the desire< effect something more than kiu< words must be given rus.

The Piedmont Headlight is constant ly nagging at the heels of Congress man John L. McLaurin, and why we are unable to say. In nearly every issue of that paper there is some cut orslur at our representative. Wherein McLaurin has offended brother Gantt is not made plain, but there is one thing certain, all of the Headlight's efforts to injure Mc Laurin is having no effect. The peo. pe that sent him to Congress, sent him there to work for their interests, and his faithful services can not be doubted. John L. McLaurin has done more good solid work for the masses in the short time he has filled his present position than all the other representatives we have had put to. gether. The people of the Sixth Congression al District are proud of the record their representative is making in Washington, and we venture the prediction that he will be returned at the next election; without a dissent. g voice from the Beform ranks. Mc Laurin is too busy working for the relief of the people to come down here to work for the elevation to office of some friend of the Headlight and that may be where brother Gantt's shoe pinches. A Factional Convention. Just at this time there appears an indication of trouble brewing in cer tain quarters of the Reform camp, and the cause appears to be that some of the prominent men in the faction are scrambling for the shoes that Gover nor Tillman will cast aside when his present term of office expires. These scrambles are natural where there are so many ambitious men, and so many that are true to the cause. Each one feels his fitness for the place, and each one thinks his claim for past services should be rewarded. To be an aspirant for the high office of Governor is a laudable ambition, and we are glad to see so much available timber in our ranks. It would, in deed, be a deplorable condition if our ranks did not contain the necessary material to make a fit successor to our present governor. The Reform faction has plenty of good and true men to take up the standard and carry it on to a triumphant victory in the coming election, but the difficulty is in fixing a proper and satisfactory time to con sider the claims of the aspirants. Some think the various aspirants should go before the people, and after a tour of the State call a convention to select a ticket for the primary election. Those thinking this way argue that it would give the people an opportunity of forming the*ir own conclusions and better be enabled to make a selection. Others think such a course would be annoying the people with too much politics and tire them out before the important battle comes on. Then there are some who have studied the conditions carefully and claim to understand the temper of the people; they want a convention'called together in March for the purpose of adopting a platform and selecting suitable men to stand dpon it. The argument for this plan is that a March convention would settle the differ ences existing among the rank and file of the Reform Movement, and it would close up any gaps that may now be open. Then there is another matter which is causing considerable discussion in our ranks. That is, who shall call a convention. One element wants a convention called by Hon. G. W.Shell, and another objects and charges Mr. Shell with having proven untrue to to the faction. Then objections come from some who say that Mr. Bowden, editor of the Cotton Plant, must not have a say in the Reform conferences, because he is an avowed Third party man. If Mr. Shell has been untrue to the faction that made him what he is, those objecting to him on this ground are right, and he should not be called upon to call and preside over a con vention of our faction. Whether he has been true or not the fact remains that his being placed in a leading position does not meet with the ap proval of a large body of Reformers. and his being placed in such a posi tion would be calculated to bring about dissatisfaction. Harmony is what is needed to make our Move ment a success and nothing should be done that will-not be satisfactory. It is a well-known fact that Senator Irby Iand Congressman Shell are not on the best of terms and should those un friendly to Irby place Shell in a lead ing position no good can result, and much harm may follow. Sen -ator Irby has been indiscreet in some things of a personal nature and the people do not approve of his inaiscretions, but at the same time be has been as true as steel and his whole heart is wrap ped up in the Reform Movement. INot even his enemies have ever charg. ed him with unfaithfulness. There fore it would be the height of folly to put forward Shell, whose very pres enee in the lead wouldi be so humil lating to Irby and his host of friends as to make them feel unwelcome in the ranks they fought so hard in The Reform . faction is a. tajority portion of the Democ~ratic party of this State, and we-agree with the Anti Bowden mep.'hat Mr. Bowden should not be reco'gnized as a leader in our ranks He is a third party man, out apti out, and in the last election voted gainst the Democratic ticket. If Mr. Bowden wants to become a lead er let him call 'together the third partyites of the State and confer with them. The Reform faction does not need him in their business. Probably it is well these matters are being agitated in order for the people to go to thinking.. If these things were allowed to rock quietly on with out the people's attention being called to it, there is no telling what the re sult would be and how long . the government would beretained in the hands of the Democratic party. It is just such discussions that awaken the people an'd start thiem off to putting things in proper shape. We believe it is for the best interests of the people that a con vention be called between . now and May, and in order to keep down dissensions in our ranks. let the faction be represented by one or two Reformers from each county in the State wno will meet in Columbia and select a date for holding a con vention- Let these representatives discuss the situation and issue a call. Harmony is a necessary ingredient for suecess and under a call from the representatives of the various coun ties neither of the contending ele ments in our faction could complain of a "snap judgment." In order to get. the representatives to meet as suggested, it will require some one to a date and issue a call, and for this purpose we take the liberty of suggesting Hon. W. T. C. Bates. This gentleman is a true blue Reformer and in whom the entire faction has every confidence. p!Dr. Bates, call a conference to fix a date for a factional convention. CATARRR IN THE HEAD Is undoubtedly a disease of the blood. and as such only a reliable blood1 purifier can -effect a perfect and per manent cure. Hood's Sarsaparilla is the best blood purifier, and it has cured many very severe cases of catarrh.

We have from the very best author ty, and there is no C.oubt, either, of its !orrectness, that a conspiracy has )een formed, wit! its birthplace n Charleston, to repeat the Haskell ,ampaign this year, and the movers intended to descend to even lower lepths than were attempted in 1890. This information was brought to partanburg by a prominent Anti politician, who is now traveling over ,he State feeling the public pulse to see how the scheme will be received. While in this city he confided in a gentleman of high position and sharacter, allied with the minority faction, and who lost no time in giv ing the conspiracy away, as it did ot set well on his Democratic stom %ch. Those Charleston politicians say that the "Tillmanites" have gone to work and placed them in a "black listrict," and so they intend to re ent this insult and act of injustice by giving the Reformers a big dose :f "coon." Now that they are plac ed at the political mercy of the ne gro, they shall use him for all he is worth. It is therefore decided to orm a coalition with negroes, divid ing all offices with them, conditioned that they vote the ring ticket and against the Reform movement. It will not do to place negroes on the State ticket, but they will be given appointments under the officers, such as clerkships, guards around the State House, and other places now filled by whites. But in county offi Ders there will be an equal division. A secret conference of white and negro politicians will soon be held in the city of Charleston, to agree on a division of offices. The blacks will also be promised an increased school appropriation, to be taken from the whites in the way of taxes, and laws will be enacted bringing about closer social relations between the races. In fact, it -is a regular social equality and amalgamating scheme, surpass ing the days of reconstruction. The black representation in the Legisla ture will be largely increased. These plotters argue that they had rather be ruled by negroes than white farm ers, for they can control the former and protect their monied interests better. The Anti papers may deny this infamous and vile scheme, but there is no doubt about its being on foot. That excuse about Charleston being put in the black district is all moonshine, for the dastardly and dirty coalition had been designed sev eral months ago, and that Haskell Richardson indignation meeting in Columbia, t he holy horror manifested by the anti organs over lynching ne gro rapists, and even efforts to excuse those outlaws for assaulting State constables in Spartanburg. are but a part of the conspiracy to pander to the negro. We are truly glad to know that this vile conspiracy to Africanize South Carolina has not been consum mated, for it will quickly separate genuine Democrats and decent white men from political Hessians and thags. and do more to draw our peo ple together than anything else. Just let this game he started, and you will hear no more about "Tillmanism" - or "Ocalaism." but it will be a contest between the white man and the negro. And there is no doubt, either, about the result. Those Charleston politic ians may affiliate with negroes, but when they try to ram such a dose down the throats of our decent and self-respecting up-country antis, they will find themaselves without follow ers. And not only this, but every man who goes into that foul scheme will become a political outcast forever more, and the disgrace will cling to his name for generations. to come. Judge Raskell ruined himself by run ning as an independent in 1890, but these Charleston politicians propose to go further than Haskell. They de sign to bring upon South Carolina the same evils from whieb she was res cued In 1876. But let the dastardly work go on. It is now exposed, ancd t he peonle will do the rest. This is a white man 's coun try, and white men intend to rule it.: and woe unto the man or faction <(1 men that dares to invoke the aird or the negro. If our friends wiil read the old ring rule sheetls, t hey~nill see th'e out cropings-of this conspiracy. It is no new-born resolvs&t-but was coneoed after the overthrow of the Shepp~ar~I ticket las}-Siiramer. But it shows tha t the Antis have given up all hone for carring Sonth Carolina in fhe Dem oeatic arty, and are now preparing i poltical and social= affiliation with Republican negroes!
