We placed little credence in the statement that Senator Mc Laurin had requested his name to be stricken from the Demo cratic rolls, or that he had sev ered his affiliation with the Dem cratic party, and as a conse quence we asked our readers to wait until the Senator could be heard from. We realize that McLaurin is marked for slaugh ter and every circumstance is enlarged upon and grossly ex aggerated to arouse prejudice against him: not so much be cause the opposition has merit in their charges, but for the reason that McLaurin's term is hear its end and his political shoes are wanted. If the politicians thought there was any chance, they would. have tackled Tillman whose term had recently expired, but they were afraid of him, not even daring to question his being a protectionist or his reasons for advocating the pensioning of deserters from the confederacy. The fact that McLaurin's time is nearly out has brought forward a whole raft of aspirants for the place, and from now on we may expect to hear most anything I which is calculated to do him in jury with the people. With re gard to the latest move on the political chess board,-the re port that he had requested his name to be stricken from the rolls of the Democratic caucus, -here is an authoritative state ment from Senator McLaurin: Washington, March l.-Senator Mc Laurin of South Carolina, in view of the repot that have been published regardig his absence from the cau cuses of the Democratic Senators and the further report that he has formally allied himself with the Republican party, made this statement to The Sun tonight. "I have not changed my party affilia tion, and still regard myself as a Dem ocrat. For the last week my wife has been in a hospital undergoing a dan gerous operation, and during that time I have read no newspapers and have tranisacted no business. Politics was farthest from my thoughts. It was a surpriseto me today when I learned that the statement had been published that I had become a Republican and that my name had been stricken from the caucus list of the Democratic Sena tors. - Some time agolIhad afrank talk with Senator Jones, who had noticed my absence from some of the Demo cratic caucuses. I tokT him that my absence was caused by my feeling that, in view of the radical 'difference of opinion on certain matters of national policy between me and the other Dem ocratic Senators, my presence in cau c-us might be wrongly construed. It might be thought that I would use some of the secrets of the caucus to the detriment of the party in the Senate. More-over, it would have been useless for me to attend and enae in any wrangling about matters in which there is wide difference of opinion between me and the majority of the Democrats. I did not know until today, however, that my name had been taken off the caucus list, and have no knowledge of it except from the newspapers. There has been no secret about my convictions on'leading questions. If some of them happen to coincide with those of the Republican party it does not mean that I affiliate myself with that party; it means that I conceive those convictions to be right. I am willing to stand on whatever record I have made, and I would not change one policy or utterance for a dozen seats in the Senate. I am willing to submit the issue to the people of my State at the primaries." Notwithstanding this emphatic denial, the newspapers opposing him are demanding his resigna tion anyhow; even the Columbia State a newspaper founded on Haskelism, is among the loudest to charge McLaurin with dis loyalty to the Democracy. The "State" does not want McLau -rin to bepermitted avoice in the primary, it wants him drummed out of the party bag and bag gage without a hearing. Was there ever a display of more adamantine cheek and unadult erated gall? The Columbia State, which did all in its power to smash the Democratic party, and in its effort, it gave aid and comfort to the gang who appeal ed to the federal courts to bring the negro into our politics, wants McLaurin driven out of the party because, he would not follow a majority of his party -associates on certain national questions. A newspaper with a black stripe down its back should not have much influence with the Democratic party of this State.f McLaurin's independent course has brought down upon him the opposition of a majority of the politicians and the newspapers. They are denouncing him with out rhyme or reason; some of lemand that steps be taken by the May convention to exclude * Th4 Min from the primary, we have to te ao idea that this will be done. e. from The white men of this State may ten m not agree with a position taken and by a public man, yet they would t pain. not consent to the suppression of rubt free speech, and if McLaurin be- a. B prie1 comes a candidate for re-election the people will demand that he be head whether they agree cra with him or not. The primary ing system in this State, was in augerated for the purpose of permitting any white man, who ern will take the pledge to abide the e result and support the nominees, A to go before the people to dis cuss issues, and if those who are tio in the majority in the May con vention prescribe what issues pea may be discussed in order to sub make a man eligible to run in in the primary, it will destroy the very principle of the primary the system. dre The papers and politicians the that are making these extraor- the dinary demands, with one accord claim that McLaurin is politically vot dead, yet at the same time their abi actions show that he must be a The lively corpse, or they would not make so much ado over him. but McLaurin positively denies that wh he has deserted to Democratic cha party. He claims, the questions cli on which he differed with a ma jority of his party associates, were not party questions, that car in the position taken by him he beg was prompted by a conscientious wh conviction that he was acting for the the best interests of the people, the and further, it is his purpose to pre submit these questions, together with his position to the white pas voters. of this State in the Dem- wh ocratic primaries, and acquiesce der in the result. There is no disposi- ed tion on the part of McLaurin to pai go into the general election with an Independent party, nor is he taking any stock in this talk of loy a white Republican party; if we ma understand him, and we think ple we do, he has certain views on national questions, which have pa thc not met with the approval of a lat< majority of the Democratic Sen- cha ators, and which have never has been discussed before the people of this State, and in order to know whether or not a majority ~ of the South Carolina Democracy ful endorse his position he proposes w to go into the Democratic pri mary and abide the result. Ifpl the white voters of the State, after hearing the arguments on bcth 'sides, disapprove of vex McLaurin's position they will Cit vote against him and that will cit, end the whole business, but do not permit by sharp practice, tic1 methods to stifile free speech, or prevent the people from havingvo an opportunity to hear bothth sides.'* If McLaurin is willing the net trust the people, his opponentssa should certainly be, and if they if t refuse to let him go into theno primary by adopting a platform the repugnant to his views, and re- W quire as a qualification to en- Cal ter the primary, a pledge endors- e ing that platform, it will be an ye acknowledgment of weakness on a the part of McLaurin's oppon ents, and it will have the effect18 of encouraging a great fall off in ler the vote at the primaries. Be- o cause, if the leaders of the Dem ocratic party are going to be dot permitted to say what white nmen alt shall run, and who shall not run dot in the primary, there will spring the up a spirit of resentment, andth numbers will refuse to patii pate in such a close corporation; the this feeling will grow and cul-De minate in the ~destruction of the D we primary system of this State. but TATE OF oHIo, CYTY OF TOLEDO. we LUCAS COUNTY. i - FaANK J.

Do not let us tend that we will have a cam- 2 gn of education, and only h the people to sneeze d enever a certain political lea takes snuff. There.is a mark- p difference between a cam gn of education, and a cam- f, gn of abuse and assertion. yen a man is charged with dis- h alty to his party, let the party king the charge tell the peo what the principles of the -ty are, then show where a se principles have been vio- C ad, and then let the party. .rged show if _he can, that he d been true to the faith, and a bead of being censured by his ~ple, that he has merited ir "well done, good and faith servant."
