The political affairs of South Carolina are not as they were once, all because the primary' system inaugerated campaigns of education. Senator Tillman de serves much of the credit for this system, and when he started in 1886, four years in advance of the race he made which landed him in the gubernatorial chair, and gave to the people the pr mary, he said then, that the pur pose was to give the people an opportunity to educate them selves on political questions. There is no doubt about it, the people are well informed, and instead of going wild over some popular idol, they gather up all the information attainable in vestigate for themselves, and they can easily detect the sin cere from pretence. Senator Tillman is without doubt a very adroit politician, and is as fine an actor as we have ever seen, but notwithstand ing his adroitness. and his fine acting, he has brought about a condition which exposes even so shrewd a one as he. The Sena tor's taking issue with Governor McSweeney, and questioning his right to decline his resignation, is nothing more than a pretence; we do not believe there is any sincerity in it-a political stage play and nothing more, and the letter he writes couched as it is, in language impugning Gov ernor McSweeney's motives is in deed unbecoming, even if the governor did not have 'a legal right to decline those resigra tions. As we understand it, the letter is rather in the nature of a re quest to reconsider what was be lieved to be hasty action: the Governor did not assume any authority to force either of the Senators to serve if they did not choose to, but realizing what such a campaign would bring on the Governor as the Chief peace officer of the State sought to return the resignations, hoping thereby to preserve the peace. The resignations were so worded as to leave room for either of the Senators to recant up to mid-night of the ~14th, day of September, and the indications were, that notwith standing the tacit understanding that no primary would be held until after the date fixed in the resignations. an election was going to be forced to come off earlher. Therefore, it is easily seen that had a primary been ordered before the time fixed in the joint resignations either Sen ator would 'have been justified in withdrawing his resignation, and a whole lot of expense would have been entailed and nothing done. Then again, if the prn mary was forced before the time agreed, the fearful consequences of an exciting primary together with the tremendous cost of the election all might have been had and even then, the resignations could have been withdrawn. If Senator Tillman feels that it is his duty to stamp out the doctrines of Senator McLaurin, and is afraid that he is the only man "with the nerve and brain" to successfully accomplish this result, he can resign next sum mer in time for the regular pri mary and then enter the race, *there is nothing to prevent such action. True, it might interfere with the Senator's present fav orite, but that should not weigh against his purpose, if his mo tives are unselfish and purely patriotic. It should not matter to him who the General Assem bly selects to succeed him after he has defeated McLaurin in the regular primary, because, i.f in the regular primary McLaurin is defeated the new General As sembly will be composed of anti McLaurinites, and Tillman's vic tory will be the more eomplete. But should McLaurin succeed in hanging Tillman's scalp on his belt, the General Assembly will be against Tillman and his views: of course, the successor .to Till man will then be a man who is in accord with McLaurin's ideas of progressive Democracy. Senator Tillman impugns Gov ernor McSweeney's motives in the following language: "Your conception of the office of Sena tor and its powers can be best understood by the ease with which you think you could fill it." Why should he thus inti mate that Governor McSweeney had a selfish motive in returning the resignations, when the Gov ernor's letter set forth such rea sons that an echoing response comes from all quarters of the State, and although there is a pretense of indignation in the Senators letter, lie does not in sist upon his resignation without a strong string tied to it. The last paragraph of his letter ex poses the hypocrisy when he says: "Holding this view I de cline for the present to withdraw my resignation." He will not withdraw it for the present, and there is no necessity to hurry. When does he propose to with draw it? Perhaps after a lot of bitterness has been engendered, and he discovers that he has brought on a condition which bodes no good to him. Is Sena tor Tillman unwilling for the people to enjoy one year of peace? Must the happiness and material welfare of the people he sacrificed to gratify Senator I Tillman's animosity towards Sen ator McLaurin? Remember the people have been educated in politics and they are qualified to distinguish whether or not the contention between South Caro lina's Senators is one of principle or prestige. Tillman clings to the tenets of that element which brought two crushing defeats to the Democratic party, and Mc Laurin has broken loose from it and seeks to put the Democracy in line with an ele ment which is more liberal and in closer touch with the South's progress. McLaurin has dis covered the war ended at Appo mattox, and does not have to be fought over every election year. Tillman claims McLaurin is endeavoring to lead South Car olina into the Republican party, and to thwart his plans, he must face him on the Democratic stump. In one breath Tillman charges McLaurin with being a Republican, and in the next he acknowledges him a Democrat. Suppose McLaurin is advocating Republican principles as Till man contends, and we are forced into an exciting and hate-creating primary, that won't help our condition even if McLaurin should be defeated. The people are well aware that Congress has a large working Republican majority, and if South Carolina was not repre sented at all, the government with its Republican measures would continue moving right along. The votes of Tillman nor McLaurin are needed to make a majority when it comes to a vote on a party measure, granting they are of different parties. Senator Tillman lays much stress on the recent decision of the United States supreme court and urges the exposition of the "damnable doctrine" and "plans must be laid for a battle to the death by the lovers of Democra cy" * * * * "as it was made against the Dred Scott case de cision." This to our mind, whether the supreme court is right or wrong, is an invitation to butt our heads against a stone wall. This, the highest legal tribunal in all the land has de creed with regard to certain pos sessions and there is no appeal unless an appeal is made to the sword. It is all right, and sounds well to pound the air with clench ed fist and denounce a court's de cision as " damnable doctrine," but what good does it do, it does not soften the effects nor does it reverse the decision. The Dred Scott case was one in which a question of recovering runaway slaves .was involved, and the contention resulted in favor of the South, the agitation contin ued until like a small ball at first, it became tremendous in it pro portions, gathering other ques? tions as it went until the climax was reached when the immortal Lee sheathed his unsullied sword. We do not believe the politi? cians of this day can get the peo pie wrought up to such a pitch on account of the government's policy towards Puerto Rico, the Philippines, Hawaii, and other outlying possessions which are ours as a result of war with Spain, to again be willing to set tle a question with a grape ang canister argument. The Dred Scott case to which: Senator Tillman so vehemently alludes was but the beginning of* what resulted in flooding the fields with the blood of the flower of both the North and South; those who made the agitating speeches and were going to drink all the blood that would be spill ed, are not among the armless and leglegs of today, nor are their names cut in the marble shafts erected to the memory of the heroic dead. Senator Till man may be willing to "battle to the death," but from the magnifi cient chorus of approval of Gov ernor McSweeney's thoughtful ness, the people prefer a crop to a "battle to the death" at least this summer. THANK YOU, GOVERNOR! Governor Miles B. McSweeney has proven himself appreciative of the high trust reposed in him by returning the resignations of Senators Tillman and McLaurin, and thus averting a bitter. politi cal contest. The people were not prepared to act on the new issues that have been sprung and they would prefer not being forced to decide until they have had time to do their own think Senator Tillman charges Sen ator McLaurin with treachery to the Democratic party, in advo cating and voting for measures in opposition to a majority of his Democratic colleagues. Senator McLaurin contends that every vote lie cast was in direct accord with genuine Democratic princi ples with a long line of distin guished precedents. The issues between these dis tinguished gentlemen are of a nature requiring on the part of the people careful study if they want to render an intelligent de cision, and to suddenly spring such an important issue is not fair to the people who are called upon to decide between them. But aside from this the caa-' paign would have been as bitter Ather purpose than the dividing the people into disturbing factions, doing nobody any good except the winner in the race. All lines of business would have been seriously affected, and in loss of time thousands of dollars would have been the cost, not to the contesting candidates, but to the people. On several occasions Governor McSweeney has exhibited clear headedness, but in all of his well performed acts none have been excelled by this one, in which he shows that he has more consid eration for the people of South Carolina than for the political fortunes of two men who differ on questions of governmental policy. The Governor's course has met with the approval of all citizens who desire peace; a cho rus of commendation comes up 1 from every section of the State, from every avocation in life, and on last Sunday the ministers from their pulpits spoke words of commendation. There is an element not satisfied, because, as one of them expressed it, "'the Governor has spoiled some fun." This element enjoys word-slug ging with the same morbid pleas ure that some people enjoy prize fighting, but the man who really has the welfare of the people at heart will heartily endorse the noble and patriotic course of our Governor. COMMERCIAL DEMOCRACY I When the politicians started to stamp out the progressive views of those who have reached the conclusion that it is far better for the people to put themselves in Line and become a part of this glorious Union, as they have a right to be, than to be used as an instrument of obstruction by men who rely for political advance ent, in appealing to passion rather than reason, they sought to hold up that old bug-a-boo "Republicanism," hoping that the people would associate the word with the horrors of recon truction; but they found the cry f "Republicanism" was not having that effect, and many, yes, very many, Are inclined to investigate the meaning of this c "Republicanism" as now ap plied; their tune is changed, and the song is entitled "Commercial Democracy." What is meant by "Commercial Democracy?" Sure ly not, in order for a man to re tain the confidence of his constit ents he must permit the thought > his brain to be manufactured y others, or that he must con. inue clinging to traditions, If -> to aid in the building up of the a yountry, in opening up new mar- C :ets for the products of our soil, >ur factories and our shops, to dd impetus to the spirit of pro ress, and to give encourage- I nent to labor is what is meant >y "Commercial Democracy," ~ ~hen we would like to hear more ;bstantial reasoning against it, ~han that the founders of this ~overnment had not fixed such a: a arecedent. In its issue of May 29th, the -reenville Mountaineer has an a ~ditorial which reflects credit s ipon the writer. He has for the 0 ime laid aside prejudice and d writes his view of the Gaffney t ~pisode in an impartial and non- S artisan nganner. If the other a iitors who are 'opposing the re lection of Senator McLaurin 'vold write likewise, the peopleC f South Carolina would not be eld up to ridicule and disgust >utside of the State. Col. J. A. Hoyt has written some warm matter in opposition :o McLaurin and he continues in ls opposition. He was among the aumber that demanded keeping a cLaurin out of the primary, I md in our opinion he is the last nan in the State who should do so, when it is remembered that )t of respect for him the State sommittee stretched the oath -equired by the party rules to it Colonel Hoyt's case that he r night be admitted. But there is i diffei-ence in having things as you would like and expressing n opinion of what exists, and Dolonel Hoyt being an honorable an does not permit his pen to isrepresent either Tillman or 4cLaurin, and in the editorial referred to, he ver-y clearly nakes it appear that both Sena ors played for position but the junio:r Senator out generaled his olleague by forcing Tillman to icknowledge McLaurin's Democ racy.
