New berry Observer. "What Means This? It is stated in the Greenville T^^tews that at an Alliapce meeting f : rJrt^TJnion a few days ngn, addressed v by lecturer J. K. Jeffries, hjl motion of G. B. Fowler, a aem^r of the j House from Union, the St. Louis convention was unanimously en dorsed, and a masa-meeiing called for the purpose of considering the propriety of endorsing the third party. This does not look well for Democratic unity, and it is lobe i boped that such instances will he ir ? - rare. ^ State Polities. Everything indicates that Gov. c*- "Tillman will l>e as bitterly opposed ; and as solidly supported as in 1890. ^ Under the fusing heat of the coming canvass, those who opposed liira will still oppose and those who ^supported him will continue to do! so. The exceptions will prol>ablv ij be few. Some disappointed, sonn extreme Alliance cranks may turn against him, but on the other side; /there will b? as many chacges. It is possible however, that National issnes reiy somewhat I | moderate the !??e:il contest. If we^ cas ail come together on the Chics- i gb platform and embrace its nomi nee, wc will find it hard to keep np the doms?ti(c^Mnrrel. It i* twrjf unlikely that, c^rj brethren - oT the March peaee-har mony convention will create much new following among the people. They w,Ji be looked upon coldly, as having done all i:? their power to embarress the a ^ministration for j . the^ purpose of defosling i-t. It is ' witfe tbera to pitch the campaign j oa high or low ground. Are they: foing to follow tkc usual- rule of? -jf imitators, and paUera Tfter TiH- ' man's fauits rather tliaauis virtues? ? We will see* ClereUMdl smtf Hill. The verdict of the people is be ing made up between these two foremost Democrats. During the pause whicii has followed the Feb ruary convention in New York, ele ment# h*ve been at work, silently but surely, which will shape the! destiny of the Democratic partv, fix iu policy and indicate the man who is to be its exponent. The *???. ift, critical. Mighty forces are gra^aptfngto determise the tendency of events in the near future. There is a lull and hush until one force or the other obtains mastery and then the storm will break loow. The peop e are thinking quietly, with a keen and penetrating eye upon men and measures > The preaa, and weekly, is running full speed and scattering broadcast the seeds of thought aad means in formation to all the people. In a few weeks the decision will be ren dered. It is easy to read between the lines and see tiiiat a u ortal an tagonism exists between Cleveland and Hill. On the very night of the New York convention which was chee-ing Hill, Cleveland at Ann Harbr>r, Michigan was indulg ing in fin? satire of those who sneered at political virtue and honesty. The very night of March 15th thst HiJI s#?t forth on hi* Southern tour, a letter was given to the press by Cleveland in which he scornfully refers to '-leading and pushing a self-soeking canvass for the presidential nomination." The effect of this sting has !>een evinced by the political, sarcasm of the following passage from Hill's speech in Augn?ta Fridny last: 4 1 have no apologies to make to any one for my Southern trip. The Sou?h is part of our common coun try, and Any citizen has a lawful right to viait anr portion of it If 'tis a crime for a pu Wie ^ u take a journey to this portion of our land and exchange friendly 5 reetmgs with bis countrj-raen, to **e the people face to face, then I have offended; and I shall be piessed to rej>ea: the offense when ever time and opportunity afford meu.e pleasure. Neither shall I ~H*fulge in any false exenses for my vj?it I, dislike hypocrisv and sham." a < It canr.ot lie denied that this lat ter is a npier thrust from a mas ter-hand, It must alar, be admitted | that in his speeches South, Hill has shown a high order or intellectual 1 force, fu.ly trained and equipped, i tireless, indomitable, polished and U i^nol?nger a mystery hh , supremacy overXpk<^ewYork ma. | chine. But who canclaTlTr"t1??fTrtl b as yet m e as u recoup to that high standard of greatness -and moral courage which can formulate an w^ne far the nation, and deal squarely ic advance with all issues, j lIit Practical silence in his late speeches on the silver question, and im hitherto puzzling utterance on that &uhj<>ct, but deepens the im pression that he is a man of skill ful policy and evasion, rather than \iriie and vital leadership. Besides j the sum and substance of his doc j trine as preached ia - Mississippi. Alabama aad Georgia is that tariff reform roust be fhe key note of the campaign, *'Let our watch-word be repeal, repeal the McKinley Jaws!" These are his words at Augusta and elsewhere. ^ Now the question is simply this. Shall Cleveland be relegated to the rear when this is the leading is.9Ue, and anoiker be allowed to steal hi?* thunder Tariff refornf, and not a word about silver ! i9 ti,js ajj that thou haiis't to proclaim, oh, DiVid Bennett Hill to u* of the South?

In its issue of the l-Hh inst.. it* editor cries "shame upon the majority of the members of Congress frur/i South C aro lina." (The majority aJluded to are farmers and Alliancemen.>' What have they done ta he ashamed 'f.f? The edi tor charges them with using-vieir influ ence in favor of ,4frea coinage of silver." and then contradicts himself bv aaying that they had no influence. Did not their constituents require, and receive of them* before their election, a pledge that thev would snpport a bill for the ''free and unl mited coinage of silver?" Then who ehonld ashamed? Them for i-but falfiding their promises, or the edi : tor who censures them- for kaepinr faith I with their constituents? The e<iitor sacms to regret that their votes should be counted equally with Villi, McMillen Wilsan and other statesmen of his iiking. Well it has i>een a long time since farm era' votes wers counted in Congress and if tome folks had their way they would not be counted at home if we ara to judge from the action of the bolters in our State in 1830. The editor sight for the good days of voreM when we were represented by stat<?sroen of intelligence and char acter, and might have added, that man aged to keep themselves in office by sacrificing the interests af their con stituents in the Souih to that of capital istic combinations m thajforth "nd East* If statesmanship begins and end* with the capture of the presidency, where are the fruits of the intelligent statesman in "the days of yore" that he speak* of? Only one presidential term has been secured for the Democracy in 32 years. Then why should statesmen <J) (politi cal bosse*) continue to a?k fJeinocr its of the South and Wast to sacrifice thsir material i ate rests to secure political amalgamation with the North and East, sections whew interests have alway.^ an tagonized the interest? of the agricul tural states? Since the money and wealth of the country has accumulated in the East aqft Norih by tiie contraction of the currency, the interests of these sections bave'become still more antag onistic. Silver? the money of the Btbfe, and of all civilized people has been recognized as money in all ages of the wvrld. Sil ver and gold has been the general basis of all issues of money. The value of the world's supply of these two metals is estimated at about $7. 000. 000. 000 one half of which is silver. If silver was demonetized evc-ywhere, the volume of money, -r the basis of money would be reduced one half, aad the purchasing pewer would be doubled by this reduc tion in volume, but the debt paving, and taxpaying power would not be increased. Therefore the debtor and tax]>ayer would have to sire twice as n itch of their labor products to pay debts and taxeg as they were required to irive f .re silver was demonetized? when the debts werw contracted.

They have already done this, by demonetizing si'v r in ISTi, ami have continued to deprev prices ever since by the withdrawal ?f Nation*! bank currency. The debtor class only :?*k f>r justice when they *sk that the rights of free coinage be re stored to silver, a d that an increase of currency shonld be provided for t?> make up for the decrease in b?nk circulation ? and the increase i-.i the business and (population of the country. This in j necessary to maintain prices at li .iog I rates. Then why should onr Congress men abandon tht just demands of their constituents to secure the presidency for Cleveland or any other presidential | aspirant? JCSTICR. THE W ORL I) S FA I II.
