M ANNING, S. C.:
WEDNESDAY, DEC. 11, 1895.
We know that we will receive the
symphathies of the brethern of the
press when we tell them the Pied
mont-Headlight has turned onr pic
-= g ii, and has wiped us off
of its exchange list. This is too bard,
and if times were not so hard we
would sell our kioodle and be among
the paid up subscribers to the Head
light just to keep up with Larry
Gantt's devilment, but that dollar it
takes to get his paper will buy four
big fat hens and their meat will stick
close to the ribs; while the Headlight
will only satisfy a curiosity and then
it is all over.
A lynching took place in Colleton
recently, the reports of which seem
incredible so horrible are the details.
A negro is charged with stealing a
bible from a church edifice, and it is
- alleged that he was taken out of his
house by prominent white men aided
by one negro and beaten to death.
The mother of the man was also beat
en to death because she was suspect
ed of being a party to the theft. For
such a thing to taie place in a civil
ized country is sufficient to arouse
the citizens of a county to see to it
that the parties to the diabolical out
rage receive the full penalty of the
law.
The Constitutional Convention is
now a thing of the past and its work
will be felt for at least a centuary to
come. Our children and their chil
dren will be the benificiaries of the
'sdom of that body of patriots,
hwose labors have recently been con
cluded. It is given up that the con
-vention was made up of a set of men
whose efforts were for what they be
lieved to be for the welfare of the
State. Every fair winded man will
aree that wisdom, moderation and
patriotism was the~ prevailing ingredi
ent in the convention, and by the
2course adopted and carried out the
factional lines are n-.w about obliter
ated. If any factional lines do exist,
the bitterness heretofore existing does
n ot exist now. Good feeling and fel
lowship among white men and Demo
crats has been brought about, and if
the convention has done nothing else,
this one accomplishment or result is
worth every dollar the convention
has cost the tax-payers. Hereafter
men will be selected to fill public
offices, not for what they did to aid
the Reform faction, nor for their sac
rifices for the Conservative faction,
-but upon their individual merit and
qualification. In the future the laws
of the land will not be resisted be
cause they were made by a ruling
faction, ;nd men will not go upon
juries determined to obstruct the
successful operation of the law of the
l1and. A new era has set in and the
country at large is made the happier
by it. Of course, the c >nvention did
not please everybody, an no body of
men under the heavens could, but
those who want better free school
facilities have no .right to complain,
as everything was done in this direc
tion tbat could be and at the same
time steer clear of the Federal Con
stitution. Had it not been for the
Federal Constitution a great many
things not done, would have been
done, and under the existing con
ditions we have all that we can ask.
The Reform faction had a large ma
jority in the convention and had they
seen fit to have acted for the faction
alone, the minority could not have
helped themselves, but the majority
led by that great leader B. R.Tillmnan
-said from the outset the convention
should be non-factional and the
promise was faithfully kept.
The National Exhibitors' Associa
tion of the Atlanta Exposition adopt
ed resolutions denouncing Senator
Tillmnan and Governor Evans for
their utterances on 'Carolina Day."
This association is composed princi
pally of Northern people and a few
Atlanta snobs. Among them is Rich
ardson, of the Atlanta Journal, the or
gan of Hoke Smith, a former free
silverite, but now a cabinet officer
and a violent gold-bug. The resolu
tions read very much like they were
written in the Atlanta Journal office;
so intemperate were they that it
would not surprise us if whiskey Ld
not play a conspicuous part in the
meeting. The distinguished gentle
men are charged with injecting poli
tics into their speeches, which is true
to a certain extent, but their political
references were simply an amplifica
tion of the political portion of the
speech of the Governor of Georgia,
who preceded them. He it was that
mentioned politics first, yet these
grasping Northerners and their
Southern hirelings dare not say a
word about him; but they do fire in
to Tillman and Evans, for what ? It
is to weaken Tillman's influence in
the United States Senate; it is to
arouse a prejudice against him when
he undertakes to pitch-fork the gold
bugs. Had Evans spoken only, not a
word would have been said about
this political allusion, which was, "the
Southern people intend to rule this
country," a sentiment to meet the ap
proval of every Southern man, we
belive.I Tis fortunate for the grasp
ing natures of the membcrs of that
association that their excuse to affect
Tillman come when it did, for bad
Tillman spoken the week before and
used ten tines as strong language
their greed for Sonth Carolina's shek
els would have made them hailt, but
they pulled about all the mouey they
could get, and finding they could lose
nothing by it, out they whip their
blades to stab the man, feared by the
oppressors of the people more than
any other one man in the Union. If
the association disapproved of the ut
terances of Tillman and Evans they
could have said so in becoming lan
guage, but the language used shows
plaiuly that partisan pilitics was
rankling and the politicians turned
green with envy and malice at the
plaudits of approval which-greeted the
two great Carolinians before such
an immense audience on their own
grounds.
If the Atlanta Journal will devote
some of its space to exposing the
huge restaurant cheats that are go
ing on under the auspices of the
national exhibitors association of the
Atlanta Exposition the public will be
better served than they are being in
that paper's conversion into a vehicle
of slander vituperation and misrep
resentation of distinguished invited
guests from a sister State. Some of
the members of the association must
have accepted an invitation to dine
with the editor of the Journal at one
of the exposition restaurants and they
have been mad with the world ever
since.
it is often a mystery how a cold has bee u
"canght." The fact is. however, that when
the blood is poor and the system dapressed
one becomes Deculiarly liable to diseases.

WHY RETIRE THE GREEN
BACKS?
The retirement of the greenbacks
and treasury notes, aggregating in
round numlers, $500,000,000, will be
a radical change in our financial sys
tem. - There is only one reason for
destroying the legal tender paper in
circulation, and that is founded on a
naked falsehood. The reason as
signed is the false assertion that
greenbacks and treasury notes are
gold obligations, and that the holders
of such paper can demand gold in
redemption. This is absolutely false.
Both the greenbacks and the treasury
notes are by express provision of law
redeemable in either gold or silver
coin, and the government has an
abundance of silver, by executing the
law and coining the silver on hand,
to meet all the treasury notes and
greenbacks that will be presented for
redemption without the use of gold
for that purpose. The advocates of
the retirement of the legal tender
paper in circulation have not fully
taken the public into their confidence
and told them what, if anything, they
would substitute for the money which
they propose to retire. If they
sbould substitute the national bank
notes redeemable in coin, the banks
would be compelled to furnish the
coin which is now furnished by the
government; and, if the gold stand
ard is maintained the banks will be
compelled to furnish gold. It must
be borne in mind that the demand
for gold to pay interest upon debts
owed in Europe, would not be dimin
ished by the retirements of the green
backs. On the contrary, if the 3 per
cent. bonds should be floated, the in
terest on $500,000,000 would be $15,
000,000 annually. By what means
would the gold be obtained to meet
our gold obligations to Europe
~which, on the lowest estimate, is over
$350,000,000 annually and constantly
increasing. Each year the govern
ment and the people of the United
States borrow from $350,000,000 to
$400,000,000 to pay interest on bor
rowed money, together with the
money expended for dividends, car
rying trade, and excorsionists. The
only means that the people of the
United States have of obtaining gold
in addition to what is produced in
this country, is by the sale of our
commodities abroad; but the United
States is unable to sell enough at
gold prices to pay current expenses.
The deficit is from $250,000,000 to
$400,000,000 a year, as stated above,
and that deficit will exist whether
the greenbacks are retired or not. If
they are retired there will be $500,
000,000 more added to our debt,
which will probably be mostly held
abroad. How will the banks obtain
gold with which to redeem their cir
cnlation? And in case of failure of
redemption, how will the United
States which under the- National
banking system guarantees the re
demption, obtain gold for that pur
pose? We have bleeady shown that
it cannot be done by the sale of pro
ducts under the gold standard. It
seems clear that there is but one
other mode open, and that is a con
tinuous issuance of interest bearing
bonds; in other words, an intermin
able increase of the national debt.
Besides, if $500,000,000 of circulation
be retired it would produce ruinous
contraction and a tremendous fall of
prices. It is not at all probable that
the banks, if they had the privilege
of doing so, would take up as much
as $500,000,000, or any considerable
part of it, for the requirement, which
would be made of them to redeem
their currency in gold, would deter
solvent institutions from undertak
ing to issue currency. It has been
suggested that the government
should require the payment of cus
to dues in gold. If this were done
gold would necessarily go to a pre
mum over all other kinds of money
in the United States, because it would
be preferred to all other kinds of
money no kind of money has
ever remained at par with
coin which would not pay all Govern
ment dues. This Government has
issued from time to time continuously
egal tender Treasury notes which
were receivable for all public dues,
and they have always been on a par
with coin. United States bank notes
remained on a par with coin as long
as they would pay Government dues;
but whenever the slightest discrim
ination is made against bank notes
or Government paper in the payment
of Government dues, such notes or
paper invariably depreciates and
mut necessarily be of less value than
mone.y that will pay all Government
dues. The scheme to retire the
part of the Rotbebilds program to
force down prices and multiply bank
rupticies, and brand the people of
this country as the vassals of an alien
gold trust. Who ever proposes such
a scheme is either keowingly or ig
norantly the tool of speculators and
go'd gamblers, and any official who
knowingly lends hinj.elf to such a
nefarious scheme deserves and will
receive, the condemnation of all hon
est men.-Washington Silver Knight.
THE PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE.
The Pre.ident's message contains noth
ing new or s-tartling. While like every oth
er document that has come from the pen of
Mr. Cleveland it is couched in good, pure.
vigorous English and conveys clearly and
quickly the idea intended. the financial
part of message ir in exact accord with his
well known gold monometallistic views.
If this part had been left to the gold syndi
cate with whom he dealt in floating bonds,
consumating the deal in the dark, a trans
action from which unboin generations will
suffer, it is probable that not a line would
have been altered. le outlines the exact
policy which the Lo:uhard Street Shy
locks and their American allies would have
adopted-the policy which will put ninst
money in their pockets.
If we understand the object which a gov
ernment should have in view, it is to seek
the welfare of the many, to Auberve the
r eatest good . to the greatest number.
Under this view it is not to secure good
investments for those who lend money, but
rather to avoid if possible the necessity for
borrowing, that the government abould be
intere.,ted.
We have something over $500,000,000 in
greenbacks; that is to say paper money,
which rests only on the ability of the gov
ernment to maintain it as money. Nobody
objects to this greenbacks because it rests
merely on the promise of the government;
nobody refuses ic ta.ke it, even if the gold.
reserve is down. But Mr. Cleveland says
this money should be withdrawo from cir
culation.
In ord: .e u p this ine of green
backs tL c P t osir ,s ::u enormous
bond is!- . e- iie habudred mil
lions, to ... :- - - .1 itn for long
terms. I) , m::. -aij o. the greenbacks
with bozi, he uual then leave the
issuing of money to the caprice of the
National Banks.
Leaving out the question as to whether
it is right or expedient for the government
to uselessly saddle long term debts on the
people, and ignoring the lifc long record of
opposition to bond issues which is the
heritage of the democatic party, there are
other patent reasons for believing that Mr.
Cleveland is even now as poor a guesser
on finance as when he said the repeal of
the purchasing clause of the Sherman law
would stop the drain on the gold reserve.
First, the bonds be proposes are in no
sense more secure than the greenback he
desires to cancel, since both rest on the
promises of the government, and must be
taken on faith. So far as security or val
ue is concerned, the man who would ques
tion the ability of the government to main
tain a five dollar promise to pay, would
not more readily trust a five hundred dol
lar promise. In this respect there is no
difference, but there are some radical
changes which the president's policy will
bring about if it is ever adopted by con
gress.
1. It will ontract the currency to an
enormous extent, thus making money
scarcer and consequenty dearer. It will
enrich the rich and increase the labor of
the toilets.
2 It will give the money interests of the
country such a power over the government
as will shake the foundations of tho repub
lie itself.
3. It will take the question of issuing
money from the hands of the government
the people-and place it entirely in the
hands of National Banks, to be used in the
interest of money lenders; inflation and
contraction according to the moods of the
irresponsible directors who are interested
far more in getting dividends for their
stockholders thtan in the general welfare of
the people. If the National Batnks do not
now issue to the extent they are by law al
lowed, which is a fact, what gaurantee is
there that they would ever issue one dollar
to take the place of the money cancelled.
4. It will load the country with a burden
of interest, sunstitutjng interest bearing
bonds for non-interest bearing papesr
money.
We hope and believe that it will be a
long time before on American Congress can
be found that will go this far towardls
plutocracy.-Spartanburg Herald.

RIGHT TIME AND PLACE.
The Raleigh News-Observer, commenting
upon Tillman's Atlanta speech, says.:
"It wasn't the proper time or place to say
it, but Senator Tillman, of South Carolina,
told the truth at the Atlanta Exposition
when he said that considering the enor
mous drain on the South for pensions it
was wonderful that she was able to hold
such an Exposition. Since 1881. four
hundrad millions has gone out of the South
for pensions. He held that if at the close
of the war the South had had an equal
chance, if the tariff had not robbed the
farmers and tihe financs of the country had
not been allowed to concentrate in the
hands of a few, there was no conjecturing
what this Expostion would be."
If Tillmar, told the truth-and even the
News and Courier has not the temerity to
deny it-no better time or place for its tell
ing could have been selected. His words
delivered at the Atlanta Exposition will re
ceive far more attention than would be ac
corded the same truth told elsewhere,
Criticism, even such harsh and unjustecriti
cism as that of the Atlanta Journal. will not
harm Tillnman. He has succeededl in South
Carolina politics in spite of-if not because
of-such criticism, and it would not be
surprising if tbe same fate attended his
career in national politics. Tillmtan tells
plain truths and, while they may be bitter
and unpalatab'e to some people, there are
always many people who are eager to hear
them and grentful toth >se who speak them.
We gather from the Journal's criticism
that it thinks no speech is proper at the
Exposition whic~h introduces topics upon
which the audience may be divided in
sentiment. WVhat senseless, inane chatter
a man would have to indulge in to come up
to that conception of a proper Exposition
speech! Trillmian is not built on those
lines. He talks on living issues and lets
his auiditors divide to suit themselve".
After all the fact remains that T'illman
and Evans were given a great reception at
Atlanta, and their speeches were cheered
to the echo. They drew a bigger crowd
than Grover Cleveland, the Jouraal's idol,
and aroused more enthusiasm. That's
where the shoe pinches. When Cleveland
attempted to preach goldolatry to a South
ern audienee at Atlanta, the Journal had
not a word to say; but when Tillmnan refers
to ,*certain political issue; in a rather in
idental way, that paper proceeds to black
guard him. Tihere is no consistency in
that conduct. If one speech was wrong,
so must the other have been. The only
ifference is that Tillnman gored the
Journal's ox. Tillmnan will not be harmed
by such tirades as the Journal's. Think
ing people see through- them too easily.

ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.
Considerable excitement was caused in
the business portion of Manning last Fri
day by the. attempt of a man while laboring
under a tenporary fit of insanity to com.
mit snicide. The unfortunate man is 4
Emanuel Seekendorfa native of Charleston, 4
and who about twenty years ago lived in 4
Manning in the employ of Mr. Aaron i
Weinberg. He, at that time, was a live ener
getic business man, jolly and full of life; I
and Mr. Weinberg opened a store at what
was then known as Antioch, now Remini,
placed Seckendorf in charge. Under his
guidance the business was a success, and
both the employer and employee made
money. Seckendorf left these parts, and
in his battle with the world he met with
varying succeis; sometimes he did well and
at other times not so well. Of late, lack
was against him, and being without em
ployment and without means, life became
a burden to him; on last Friday morning
he secured some fiye or six bottles of land
anum. He told Mr. Weinberg of his in
testions and Mr. Weinberg sueceeded in
taking a couple of bottles of laudlanum
away from the man, believing he had all,Iet
him go. The next, seen of him, he was
aking toward.- Ox Swamp and when over
taken, be was sitting down by a tree with
two empty vials near him. He stated to
Mack Richardson that he had taken the
poison and he wished to die. Mr. Alfred
Dyson, with the assistance of others,
brought him back, and in the lot in rear of
Loryea's drug store effor~s were made to
save the unfortunate creature's life. Dr.
Loryea prepared several domes, but it was
with great difficulty that any of them could
be got down him. All the physicians hap
pened to be out of town and there was no
one who understood the use of a stomach
pump. The poor fellow was kept on a con
tant go until lIfe seemed almost extinct.
Doctors Brown and Brockinton finally ar-.
rived and they applied their combineda
skill. The chance for saving the creature
was almost hopeless. H~e was removed
from the lot to the council room and from
thence to the residnce of Mr. Aaron Wein
berg, and all night the poor fellw's life was
anging by a slender thread.' At lastiva
hange set in and his life was saved. The I
next day he was able to take nourishment
and is now about well, with the exceptioa
f being weak and sore from the beating I
ad violent exercice. Mr.. Seekendorf 4
ust have troubles that he has not made 1
known, and while brooding over them his
ind became unbalanced an I wade him do
his iush deed.
