In the while heat of disappoint.- |

ureal national political contests,

defeat of the party by retiring
certain leaders or elements thai
nre supp< set to have heen iikuo or
! ss out or accord with the general
p hey "f the party, says tin-* Philadelphia
Times. Wo set* this
pointedly i 1 us', rated at this time
in the discussion oT the political
situation by Democratic leaders.
There lias been a perioral eruption
from Democratic disappointed
loaders because of the decided defeat
or IJryan, and in the hittorncss
of disappointment many have come
to the front and insisted upon
retiring from their fellowship all
who don't happen to agree with
the dominant party leadership.
Some have openly insisted upon '
retiring llry.ni. which would mean
retiring the hulk of the Democratic
party. Others insist upon retiring
Croker and Tammany Hall and
others insist upon retiring (Movelaud
and all who are in sympathy
with him. If the wishes of these
disgruntled leaders who insist upon
retiring all who don't happen to
please them could I)*.' en fore <1,
there would be simply no Democratic
pnrty left.
Henry (May was twice defeated
for the Presidency, but his party
didn't retire him or insist that he |
must go to the rear. His leadership
was acknowledged until the
day of his death. .lames (1. Blaine
was twice defeated for the nomination
for President ami once defeated
as the Republican candidate,
but there never was a day from his
tirst defeat in 1S7(? until his death
that he was not the leader of lenders
in every great Republican battle.
The sauie is true of William
.1. Bryan. Whether he shall again
be nointiiHted for President or
whether, like Clay and Blaine, lie
shall battle in the ranks his efforts
for the parly and its candidates
will be the greatest inspiration to
Democratic success.
The Democratic party of city.
State ami nation doesn't want to
retire anybody from its fellowship.
except those who have corruptly
betrayed their trust when charged
with party leadership. The Democrats
will oVct the next President
if all the Democratic elements
which honestly desire the overthrow
of impt rialisiu and centralization
shall be heartily united. It
can't. go hack to its old leadership
that triumphed in 1801!. Those
who have defeated the party can't
become its leaders, but the party
may be in an attitude two years
and four years hence to make all
the discordant dements of the
present follow its ting in united
etTort for Democratic victory.
Don't retire Democrats; gather
them in.

The following article is one of n
series that will appear in The Times
giving u synopsis of the war record
of members of the Fort Mill Camp
of Confederate Veterans. Kecords j
will he published in the order in j
which they are handed in.
Leroy Newton Cnlp was a youth
of lb )oars when the war between
the Slates began in 1801. Filled
with the patriotic desire to maintain
the cause of the South, lie was
the first to step forward and oiler
11is services t< > h is nut i ve State when
volunteers were culled for at. Lancaster.
S. C? on Di-ceinbt'r 1. 1*01.
Shortly afterwards a company was
there organised, consisting of 7b
men. with .1 I). ('askey captain and
I L. N. t'nlp ti tli sergeant. The'
eonipany rtccived the uppeiluti >11
"Lancaster Tigers'* and was soon
1 ordered to Camp Hampton, in Columbia.
and while there the Scv
literal h Regiment of South Carolina
Volunteers was organized, of
which Company I was the "Lancaster
Tigers." The regiment was
sent from Columbia to Charleston,
rciiiaining t here until the following
lime. Company I was reorganized I
in May, with !. F. Steele captain
and L, X. Culp second sergeant.
After a rather dull time in Clini h*ston,
the roginient. was sent to Vir
ginia and assigned to Longstreet's
i corps at Richmond. from which
city it marched to (Jordonsvillo and
thence to the Rappahannock, where
a detachment of [the enemy were
engaged. At Brandy Station, Sergt.
Culp became ill and was unable to
join his regiment again until the
day following the second battle of
.Manassas. When lie reported for
duty he was detailed to bury the
dead of his company, I'd men. The
next active service Sergi. ('nip's
regiment saw was at the battle of
South .Mountain. Sentember I.V
l.Sb'J, in which In1 was Wounded in
t lie I * - f t aim. He was then taken
to the hospital at Shepordstown, j
from whence lie wus removed to
Winchester, having to wiule the
Potomac River on the way. After
a stay of only a few days at. Shepherdstown,
Sergt.. Gulp was given
command of a squad of wounded
soldiers and ordered to tlie hospital
at Staunton. The distance, 90
'miles, was march* d in live days, j
The attention at the hospital was
so indifferent that Sergt. C'ulp. accompanied
hy several comrades,
i ran the blockade and went to Rich ,
inond, where he again entered a
hospital. After being dismissed
from the hospital he was given a
furlough for thirty days and went
home. While at home his regiment
was ordered to Kingston,
N.C., where he joined it in time to
take part in the battle at that place.
Nothing lbore of special impt rt*
ance happened until the regiment
was ordered to r? port to Gen. .(oh.
Iv Johnson, at Jackson, Miss.
From his camp on l'eail river,
Gen. Johnson started to the relief;
of Vieksburg, but while on the
march he was met by a courier who
told him that Viekslmighad fallen.
Johnson then retreated toward
! Jackson, and his soldiers sutTercd
, very much from the lack of driuk,
able water and the iutons* heat, it
being July. Only four men reached
camp the liist night of the
retreat, Sergt. ('nip being among
the number. From Jackson the
regiment was sent to Savannah by
rail, some being compelled to ride
on top of the cars ami sleeping as
if in their tents. The regiment
was transferred from Savannah to
Wilmington, N. (_\, where it. had
nothing to cat except parched corn
and peanuts.
id ->iay, lMfi, rsergt. Gulp's r? giment
was ordered to Petersburg.
Vn., and on the night of the IStli
was marched to Clay's farm. Next
morning the enemy was attacked
and driven from their breastworks.
In this engagement, Company I
lost several men. Kxecpt a few
skirmishes, no more fighting wns#
done until the night of the 24th.
That ni^ht the captain of Company
1 expected an attack and ordered
the vidette to awaken Sergt. ("nip
if anything unusual should occur.
Sergt. Culp, not having gone to
sleep and noticing the firing be- .
coining heavier in front, aroused
the company. During the eon fusion
that, followed, he was accidentally
shot by Young Yarborough.
Tin1 ball passed through his aim,
both above and below the ollmu 1
cutting n muscle ench tiino, nml
then entered his body under the
left firm and passed around his J
back under the skin and Indeed
under the ri^ht arm. The hull j
was cut out afterwards by a Charlotte
( N. C ) physicinu. As a re- '
milt of the wound he was idven !i j
furlough and sent home. Having , .
sutlieiently recoverefl in October, .
he reported for duty and was put
in charge of the vjuard at the medical
deparliueut in t hru lotto. V (\.
where he remained till the close o|
the war. On November 2<?, 1JK10. ,
lie received fi pension of fr >n\
