COL HOYT'S HOME.
Senator Tillman attended the
campaign meeting at Greenville,
the home of Col. Hoyt, last Mon
day, and delivered one of the
best speeches of the campaign.
'He answered Dr. Gardner, who
had denounced Tillman from the
pulpit, and warned the people of
the attempt to rally them around
denominational flags. Senator
Tillman gave Col. Hoyt's home
people some warm medicine and
from the news we get from that
county, it is doubtful if Col. Hoyt
gets a majority vote. We take
the followitig extract from the
correspondent's report:
This has perhaps been the largest
and liveliest meeting of the present
campaign. Senator Tillman seemed to
have on his old-time steam and the
cheers for "Hoyt' and the hustling got
the steam up an he spoke with ve
hemence. Tillman spoke for more than
an hour and, as he promised, took up
the sermon of Dr. Gardner of Green
ville. Tillman made the best speech of
the campaign today. He had two pri
maries. first whether he was justified
in charging the ministerial-saloon keep
ers' "alliance," and many approved of
his denomination and that there was
the "alliance.' But it was-his prohibi
tion-dispensary hand primary noted,
and he called me up and said there
were 2,500 present and wanted the vote
fully noted. There were not over
twe'nty or twenty-five who voted or his
call f'or prohibition: when the dispen
sarv vote was called for the hands wvent
up'as if out of a Gatling gun. Fully
twenty-five to one was the record: the
dispenisary had the overwhelming num
bers voting and Tillman said this would
be the result in the primary. Tillman
today made a connected speech and was
sever-e on the ministers going into poli
tics, and talked plainly about Dr. Gard
ner, who seemed to have many friends
in the audience.
The tidings from China are
very unsatisfactory. One day a
report comes and it is contradict
ed the next day. On yesterday
a battle was i-eported in which
1200 of the allied soldiers were
killed and wounded. The minis-,
ters are said to be alive, but no
authentic verification of this
much desired fact has come yet.
We very much fear that the con
ditions in the East are more
serious than many think, and
the fact that the Chinese have
been laying in great quantities of
modern arms, and have been em
ploying European military talent
ever since her war with Japan,
makes us believe she is prepared
to give the combined world a
fearful struggle. In our opinion
the trouble in the East is vet in
its infancy, and should China
succumb to superior knowledge
of military science, when the
powers go to slice up that Em
pire the real and serious trouble
will begin.
There are all kinds of cranks
in this world, and the greatest
of these, are those men who im
agine they are holier tha'n other
men, and it is their duty to make
men holy whether they will or
not. This class of men imagine
that they can legislate holiness
into their fellowman, and you
will find them inventing all kinds
of moral questions to pester leg
islatures with. There is a law
now on the statute books of New
Jersey which requires every man
to go to church on Sunday: of
course, the law is ignored, but
occasionally some zealot falls
back on this obsolete statute to
punish some erring brother who
has disappointed him in some
way, or who has given him some
cause for real or imaginary griev
ance. Just so, will it be if we
wer to place on our statute books
a prohibitory law against the
sale of liquor: the law wvould be
generally ignored, but once in a
very great while, on account of
a per-sonal grievance, the viola
tor of the law would be hauled
up and punished. In this day of
religious liberty and freedom of
thought, the puritanical ideas
prevalent in the early settlement
of this country, appear fanatical,
and what was thought to be nec
essary for the betterment of the
moral condition in the year 1000u,
would be regarded in the year
1900 an unwarranted abridgment
of a citizen's rights.
Nortn Carolina's election to
amend her constitution resulted
in a magnificent victory, and
Alabama follows suit. One by
one the States are following
South Carolina's lead on the suf
frage question.
The news from all parts of
the United States show a decided
brightening of Democratic elian
ces for success this year. Bryan
in i,1, had a divided party to
lead, today his party is virtually
solid, with a great many Repub
licans who had left their party
on account of its foreign policy.
A reat many Democrats op
pose Bryan's financial views, but
they regard the money guestull
settled, at least for the present,
and they will support Bryan.
and their party on the anti-in'
perialism and anti-trust planks
of the party platform. They
regard Imperialisin and Trusts
the paramount issues. There
are thousands of vot11rs of both
parties who are opposed to a
colonial form of government in
the Philippines, they claim that
a Republican goverment cannot
control colonies and live.
With such conditions it re
mains to be seen which is the
stronger, the money power which
is backing the Republican party,
or true Americanism which
should be the controlling factor
in our politics.
The South will, as heretofore
give Bryan a solid support, and
if the Democratic party can in
crease in the West. there is some
hope of victory. Bryan can win
without New York if he can se
cure an increased support in cer
tain Western States. He can
win without New York and In
diana, if he can get the electoral
vote of Illinois and Wisconsin.
Or he can win if he can get New
York and Indiana. The outlook
is not at all hopeless.
Col. Cole L. Blease, one of the
candidates for Lieutenant Gov
ernor. is fast coming to the front
as the most popular candidate
for that .position. The people
are beginning to find out that he
is the man who made a fight on
the floor of the House of Repre
sentatives to require the school
tax money of the white man to
be applied to the white schools.
His speeches on the liquor ques
tion are even stronger than those
of the gubernatorial candidates,
and at a number of places his ar
gument for the dispensary was
stronger than Tillman's, so much
so that Tillman complimented
him. Blease is a young man of
fine ability, which was recog
nized by the people of Newberry
county in nominating him for the
Legislature before lhe was 2
years of age. At the last elec
tion he received an overwhelm
ing majority on the first ballot.
Blease is a close student and he
is known in Newberry among
the factory operatives as "a law
er with a soul." We have no
opposition to any of the other
candidates for that office, but we
believe that Cole L. Blease is the
best qualified one of the nunmber.
He has legislative experience,
and his ability fits him for the
place. His record shows him a
friend of the people, and when
ever opportunity offered itself
le would champion their cause.
He is a strong advocate of the
dispenary system, was a memi
ber of Governor Tillman's staf
and always a strong defender
whenever Tillmnan has been as
sailed. We will vote for Cole L,
Blease.

a prohibition law be enforced? Theory
is not logic, abuse no argument. pro or

o)posed to the dispensar-y give a pr1ac

dealing with the liquor question if they
succeed in tearing down, through the
legislature, the present law. Oh yes.

the dispensary law but no constables.
