LOUIS APPELT, Editor. Wednesday, Autiist 8, 1894. Hartwell M. Ayer retires from the e4itorial management of the Flor ence Times, and is succeeded by John P. Coffin. Kate Field, a brilliant journalist, says her idea of hell, "is the present condition of the country," and that idea has been obtained without at tending the Charleston campaign meeting. P. G. Bowman, formerly of Sumter isreported to be a candidate for the U. S. Senate from Alabama on the Populist platform. He is a candidate for prison honors, too, if the published report of his killing a man in Bir mingham is true. Ex-Sheriff Holley, of Aiken, has been appointed chief constable of the State. Mr. Holley has the reputa tion of being a man that will carry out his orders to the letter, and he will not use any harsh means unless it becomes absolutely necessary. Two years ago to be a Reformer was a disgrace in the estimation of some people, but now it has become fashionable, and we hear some of the hottest Antis now proclaiming them selves Reformers. The man who says he is a Reformer but is against Tillman is not the kind of a Reform er the people are looking for. Till man is the acknowledged leader of the Reform movement, both at home and abroad, and to be against him is to be against the Reform niovement. The dispensary law is being rap aly pushed to a final hearing. The Osta court will soon have an oppor tur.ity of testing it, and so will the TTnited States Supreme Court. Should the act be declared constitu tional by the United States Supreme Court a large majority of the States will have a similar law before twelve months. Some who were bitter i their opposition to the law are no% wanting it enforced and openly say the penalties attached for viehttinb6 the law should be heavime Wit .'afemarkable promptness cer rntowns had dispensers arrested for violating the town ordinances which prohibits the sale of liquoi within their borders, but the strangE part-of the business is, they not only have not arrested a bar-keeper for keqping an open- barroom, but they allow the bars to continue right on. It is wrong for dispensaries to seJ ~liquor in those towns because it ef fects the sales of the barrooms whose proprietors very often have quite i pull in municipal polities. -Keep your eye on the candidates who are unwilling to let the peopk *know where they stand on any par. tieular issue. The candidate that re Ifuses to pledge himself to carry oul the wishes of the people does not propose to represent the people. He simply wants to represent himselU -and possibly a few personal friends. -The masses are not looking for those kind of representatives, and they ..should be careful not to let such slip in. A man may like a candidate ev er so much personally, but he cannot ' vote for him if opposed to his prii *pies. The question is not one of per. sonal popularity. It is who will rep resent the wishes of the people and faithfully carry out those wishes. ~When you hear a candidate talking about not allowing himself shackled with pledges, put him down as being against what you want. Last Wednesday's daily newspa pers report a lively incident that oc curred between Governor Tillmnan and Senator Butler on the train be tween Union and Spartanburg. For tunately there was nothing more se rious than a sharp passage of words. No one doubts the courage of either Butler or Tillman, but we do not see what they can gain by involving themselves in a personal altercation. We hope both will conduct them selves so during the balance of the campaign that no more reports such as came from them last week will be heard. The supporters of Governor Tillmnan bear no ill will towards Sen ator Butler, and we believe we truly voice the feeling of every Reformer in the county when we say they have a high regard for him and his past services to the country. At the same time they feel that Governor Tillman is the leader of -the Farmers' Move ment, and that his past services merit the honorable promotion he now seeks. Let us all enjoy the freedom of casting our ballots for the man of our choice without impugning each other's motives. The Conservatives are making a shrewd effort to recap tre what they lost in the revolution of 1890, and all that the Reformers have to do is to keep up their organ izations and success is assured. All this stuff about Tillman being op posed to the Alliance demands is the silliest twaddle and it only comes from those seeking to break the con fidence of the people in him. Both Butler and Tillman favor most of the Alliance demands, and that which they do not favor they have the man hood to say so. Other men with the office of United States Senator at stake might for the sake of catching votes say they support this and that when in reality they are simply deceiving the people in order to get their votes. Gov crnor Tillman has always opposed the sub-treasury scheme on the ground that it is impracticable. The Alliance itself is not wedded to the scheme, but the Gov'ernor is a mnem ber of the Alliance, and although he disapproves of the sub-treasury he will submit to the will of the majori ty. This we are satisfied of from a speech he made two years ago in the Alliance caucus in Columbia. There he told the brethren that he would give them his views, and if they would not go. with him, he would as a- Allmancman go with them. The State Press Association will meet at Pawley's Island on the 16th inst. This will be a great time for the pencil drivers. The Chesterfield county conven tion endorsed James E. Tindal for Governor. Chesterfield appreciates a Reformer and statesman. The Conservatives are again Dib ble-ing with figures. They claim the earth and all its contents. In giving out the list of counties they expect to carry they even put Clarendon as safe for their side. What a joke? All this talk about a third man for the U, S. Senate is twaddle. The fight is between Gov. Tillman and Senator Butler and one or the other should and will be selected for the place. They both went before the people in accordance with the rules of the Dem ocratic party and both are making a hard fight for the prize. The one that has the longest pole will "trash de 'simmon." In a case before Judge Watts re cently, he held, "If you hold a chattel mortgage and do not take possession of the property when your deed is due. you forfeit your claim to the property. If you accept a partial payment on such a mortgage you for feit your lien." This decision is based upon a similar decision made by the State Supreme Court some time last year. We regard this ruling of the court as specially important to both merchant and farmer and both should understand the law affecting chattel mortgages and liens, and then trouble and unneccessary expense will be saved to all parties. Every Reformer should be up and doing for the reason that the opposi tion aregoing to make a desperate ef fort to get into control. All of their talk about being indifferent is the veri est bosh. A few days more will reveal the true inwardness of the "possum tactics" of the Conservatives. All kinds of schemes will be put into op eration all over. the State to hood wink the Reformers, and now is the time for each Reform club in the county to look after its interests. They should have meetings for the purpose of showing up the game of the opposition. They should also appoint committees to look after the registration of members and whenever they find out any of their,.embers have been af on a Conservative club o that member and see if c enrollment was done with his consent. The Conservatives about Manning are boasting of the number of Tillmanites they are enrolling, but in the case of some they claim to have enrolled, the parties have given instructions to keel) their names on the Reform club where they will cast their vote in the primary. The Reformers of Clarendon in one of the largest conventions ever held in the county, unanimously adopted resolutions requesting Hon. James E. Tindal to become a candidate for gov ernor, and this after Mr. Tindal had expressed a wish to retire to prilvate life to look after his private interests, which were being neglected on ac count of public duties. -Mr. Tindal feeling that his people had a right to command his services, consented to make the race and has ever since been actively and aggressively en gaged in carrying out the wishes of his constituents. He has not de scended to the methods of the ward politician nor has he befuddled the minds of the people by the discussion of personal or irrelevant matter. He has been outspoken in his views on all matters affecting the welfare of the Reform movement, and in every in stance when in his judgement the Reformers were leaving their moor ings, he warned them of the danger. Mr. Tindal has won the respect of the entire State by the manner of conducting his canvass, and his speeches all the way through were the utterances of a statesman whose mis sion was to better the condition of the masses. We know that it is al most impossible for a public man to please everybody, but we sincerely hope that the Reformers of Clarendon will in this instance be unanimous in asting their votes for James E. Tin dal for governor. It really looks like the State Alli ance acted hastily in expelling T. L. Gantt, if what Gantt says is true. He says that he had never received any summons to appear before the State Allian'ee to make good his charges; that he was tried and con victed in his absence by a jury com posed of men who he brought charges against. We know nothing of the merits or demerits of the ease, but the Spartanburg Alliance shows very plainly its disapproval of the treatment of Gantt by refusing to recognize the action of the State Al liance, as will be seen by the follow ing resolutions: Resolutions of Encampment Alliance No. 45, of Spartanburg, S. C.: Whereas, the rumor having reached our ears that the late State Alliance has, on the recommendation of the judiciary committee. expelled Brother Gantt from the Order, and believing that said body acted unjustly in that our brother was not given notice of trial; and whereas, we believe it exceeded its jurisdiction anid that its action cannot be sustained by the constitution of our Or der, in that Brother Gantt has al ways in his editorial utterances sus tained all the demands of the Al liance, bioth State and national, and has never in our knowledge expressed him sel as opposing any of the principles or demands of the platform of our Order, an 1 that there is indicated, in the criticisms as uttered by many of our Alliance b'rethren in our connty and voiced by Urother Gantt in his paper at their instance, only tihe wel fare and success of our organization; and whereas we feel that we want to see each o our brothers receive just and fair tret-mnt on all occasions and espe~cially at the hands~m of brethren, and believing the present in-I stance not wholly free from Liarm, N, therefore, be it resolved: 1. That if the report lie true that ha s reached us tLat Brother G.antt has beenex pelled from the brotherhood, that we differ very much with the Alliance and consider Brother G.antt in good standing until he be regularly tried and found guilty of~ sonie charge, and we believe him to be as sincere in his allegiance to the Alliance as any member of that body. 2. 'lhat we shall continue to recognize Brother Gantt as a regular member of our Sub-Alliance until he is proven unworthy of recognition by us as an Allianceman. t J.

The following resolutions wvere adopted by a rising vote: Resolved, that the tha1:ks of this conference be tendered to the citi zens of Manning for the generous and elegant hospitality with which its memnbers have been received and entertainedl. That we will reiuem ber with great pleasure our sojourn in this beautiful town. and that we will pray for God's blessing to rest richly upon those who have so kind lv mninistered to His servants. ~Resolved, also, that we extend our tanks to the ininisters and menmbers' of sister churches who have so kind ly placed their houses of worship at the dlisposal of the conference. Rev. John J, Riley, of the. Carlisle Fitting School, at Bainberg, ad dressed the conference late Saturday afternoon, this mnaking the fifth edu cational addr~ss delivered during the conference.

It is to be hoped that the dispensers in the iffe'rent counties w"ill avoid trouble as fair as possible, and be not qjuick to use the power of tihe State, where a conelliatory tourse may induce the offenders to obey the law, but where offenders persist in dis :beying the laws and defying the otlicers f the State, let there be no hesitancy in miploy ig whatever fo rce may be nee assary.

Congress, and especially the Sen ate has been severely criticised for its delay in acting on the tariff bill. The Wilson bill was proliosed in the House of Representatives last De cember; it passed that house in Jan uarv; the Senate held it under con sideration for six months. Whatever view one may take of the delav-a matter on which most men look with the eyes of partisans -legislation in this country on sub jects so large as this of the tariff has usually been slow and deliberate. This has usually happened for tha same reasons that have prevailed this year; opposition to party meas ures is always fierce and bitter, and some sort of comprolise between the opposing Congressmen is usually necessary. Moreover, it is far fron an unusual sight to witness proinpt action in one house of Congress, fol lowed by long delay in the other. Perhaps the best recent instance was the McKinley tariff bill of 18390. This measure was reported in the House of Representatives April 16th, and passed that body May 21st. But it did not pass the Senate for nearly four months, until September lth. The House of Representatives was prompt, and the Senate was deliber ate in passing the silvor repeal bill last year. Going back to older periods of our Congressional history, the fomnous Missouri Comnpromise law of 1820 il lustrates the same tendency. The original bill, to admit Missouri as a State, was prop~osedI in the House of' Representatives ini Felbruairy, 151 0. with an anendiuent against the ex tention of slavery in the State. With this amendmnent it passed the House of representatives promptly, but failed to pass the Senate at all that session. In fact it was two whole years after the billh was first intro duced before it becante a law. . Among the famnous compromnise measures of 1850 was the Fugitive Slave.L~aw, on which Daniel Webster made his mnemnorable "7th~ of March speech." Trhiis bill w~as proposed ill the Senate January 29th; it did not pass until thme close of August, al though the session was alnost whol ly given up to the discussion of it. In 1834, after President Jackson had comlpelled his Secretary of the Treasurv to remove the government deposits~ from the United States Bank, Henry Clay offered -.d the Senate passed a resolution censuring the President for his action. This was in March. in A pril Jackson sent i a protest against this' resolution, and Thomlas H-. Benton, Jackson's ardenit supplorter, umoved t hat tile resolution of censure be "expuniged; ini other words, that the record of it on the Senate journal be mnarked around in black and inscribed. "ex punged by order of the Senate. Benton proposedt t his "expunging resoution" in the successive sessions of 1834, 1835, 'arnd 183fJ, and in each oif these sessions it was tabled. Finally, in Jaiiuary, 183~7, Benton's resolution Although this kind of delay has on the whole been the rule with imnpor tant legislation, there has been sonme stri king exceptionis. The comipro misc tarii bill of 1833, by which the duties were reduced, was one. In just a fortnight after Mr. Clay pure sented it ini the Senate it had beenl paissedl by both branches of Coni gress. The othler uiost remarkable in stance wa the legal tender act of 1802, in its effects one of the most noteworthy mieasu res in the coun try's history. This bili, for the issue of ne hundred and fifty million dol dars governmient piaper money, was reorted in the House of Representa tives January 22, 1862. It passed the House February 6th, passed the Seii atte with amnendmnents February 13thI, and ini the House was fially a prove-d as amnendhed February 25th. Barelv one month was thius con For thbose tw"o fanuous exceptions to the ruie of slow legislation thiere was, however Special reason. TIhe comromise of 1s:18 was passed to avert the threatened danger of South Carolinas secession. The legal ten der act of 18062 was hurried because the governient was in urgent ineedl of money for thie war.-Youths' Conm piaion. ST.\TEr oF- Oio, CITY of Iomr.ImT,( LU s Cot-NTY. * Frank I.J.
