"It is a great pity that the best ,nen in our county tid State will iot, or cannot, come to the front. their words and works are sorely needod. By "best ien," we do not mean "conservatives" or Sheppard men-by any means. 'The hest, Tiillimanites are lying back in Pickens counties and it is so in many other counties. Most any of us could select a very ac ceptable ticket from the Tillman fact io-certainly just, as good as the couity affords for the public service, and made so by their busi ness integrity and great. foresight. We shall have to find out sol'ne other plin for bestowing public office, inl order that the mantel may fall upon the most worthy shoulders. Since we have come to expect and demand so much-of the governmtent, we should conuiiiit. its administration to lie wisest.. Unfortunately good polit.ical lead ers do not make t1w best hbl1ic oflicers. Do let the antis keep quiet and let. the reforiers give us the lbest they 111ve inl t heir shop. "--Seitin'l. It. is gra i fiyiing to1 see how nerll the Seitinel approiiches the line ha1t, divides us, still it will not r0ss. It. is it hopeful sign, that .here 1r1e (iougli god men in the l'illman faction to fill the oliees ac lpt.ably to the conserv atives, Ve .and always been under the im ression, Uthait such a ithing was im)possiblo and that, the conserva lives wOere un1i14. i and liencelbly abhiding thn-ir timie, bult no'. withl the hopi of ever being stltisfied with any ticket. sE'lected from the Tillmaii fact ion. It. is indeed Ili tyt hat some plan can not he adopt ed "in order ialt the initt I may fall ipon the most worthy shoul ders.'' AS to County ollicers the JoURNAL eni suggest. ioI better pant t han the majority primary, which the Reformers ado)t.ed. It will not. (1 to go back to the pui raulity primary, which the ring rule crowd so successfully used in de feating the will of the people.

The Reformers will be glad tI get recruits and to receive newv for ces, but will not agree to dlisbami mdc go pell-nmell into a free figh imong thenmselves, with the con servatives ready to jump on an' man they choose. Congressman LadSnerC's BHi. Congresman Latimei is a har< worker and stands to his post. H<4 has iuntroduxced several bills in Con gress, which will benefit his con. stituents, if ho is successful in get. ing themn through in proper shape, Ho is meeting with success with his railroad bill as is shown by the following from the report of the proceeding~s in Congress: "The Judicary Committee called up and the House passed the fol lowing: House bill to prevent in terference with the collection of taxe3 assessed by States, coun ties, or mnunicipalities against a railroad company, vacating juris 'diction of the United States Court, over controversies aftecting such tae, even though the debtor corporation is operated by a re. coxver or reeivera appointed by said Umtted States Court.

County Chairman Johnston has called the Democratic clubs to moot and reorganize on the 4th of August and it is important that every voter, both Tillinanito and Conservative, should attend, as it is the regular party orgrnization and includes all factions of the Democratic party, while the Re form clubs, which were recently organized, are composed only of Reorinors. No Reformer should neglect to at tend the meetings of the Demo erattic clubs, so as to have a voice in the election of the otiicers and in the transaction of the business, that may arise under the constitu tion and rules of the party. The president, secretary and other of ficers of the clubs should exert themselves to have a good attend ance at. the meet-ings on the 4th of August, so as to get a fair ex prossion of the sentiment. and will of the people ont the matters and measures that inay Cone up for consideration. They should im ess upon the people il th0 colll trV th! inport-alce of attlending anird h aaving a V)iee inl the meetinig Ho as to avoid( the necessity (f lea ving everything to the people in town to manage. 'The people of ie coutary iight not be satis fled and wvould have a p)or way of helping themselves, after they failed to be present, and lot every thing go by the (lefault. 'CourU-Con Inued.. The following proceedings of court woro crowded out last woek: The only crinminal case left, for trial and tho one in which th,( most inltorost cLnterod was against Harlston Chapman for libol. The court room was crowdod from be ginnig to 1nd with anl eager and anxious audience. The manago mont of tho otso was caroful and adro it on both sidos and sparring hogan immuediatoly after the Solici tor put ill) his first witnoss. Mr. B. A. Morgan was thoroughly pro pared and contosted overy inch of the ground with the Solicitor and, boforo th( state Witnossos had all LOstiiedl, had made a good showing in bohalf of the defendanrt. It was not our plonsuro to hear the speeches of the attornoys, A Blytho, and J. P. Caroy,I speaking for the state, and J. E. Roggs am Mr. Morgan for the (dofeondanit but they are reported to have boom slendhid efforts. Mr. Morgani said toe have mado1( a veryflocih( presentation of the facts and t< have been at times grand in hi eloquent alpeals to the jury. Th charge of -Judge Gary was cloa and1 fair, and the jury returned ii a short time a verdict of not gull ty. In the Court of Common Ple judgmont for foreclosure was roni dered in the case of A. R. 1Hanrin Administratrix against J o h: Craig. In the case of A. Ahorcrombi against J. W. Trhomas, the judy mont of the Trial Justice was cor firmed and the alppeatl dismissd. The appeal of Georgo Cox vi Pickens County was dlimisO< and the judgmont of thre Trial Jui ' tico confirmed. - Orders of reference wero passo5 a in the case of .Joab Alexander, 0 'I al. against George K.

Stewart preached a very earn est and forcible sermon. After an intermission of one haour the crowd assembled and the evening was m~ost~pleasanatly spent in service of song. An Old Folk's musical associationl was organiizedl and the following'~officers elected : President, J. M. Porter; Vice Pre sident, 3. M.'Duckworth ; Secreta ry, E. J. Prince; Executive Comn frnittee, A. W. Gravely, M. ID. Can trell, Z. H. Smith, 3. T. Looper, J- E. Gillespie, W. A. Porter.

PULVERISED BY ELLERBE [Continued from the outside page.] quit the Alliance to make money out of it." Voico-"You want *to make some too, don't you?" The audience laughed heartily at this and there were mingled ories for Ellerbe and Evans. IT IS NARROW MINDED. Sonator Evans said that bofore he would got up boro and appeal to the prejudices of tho p)oplo and try to array class against class I would quit the race for Govornor. I would not attmpt to put the Reform movement on such a nar row minded basis. It is in bad taste for any man to try to got up such a fooling. It is absurd to talk about shutting a man cut bo causo ho is not a farmer. Any man can bo loyal to the Reform cauHo no matter what his profos sion or calling. You are fighting for measuros and not mon. You will voto for the man who will do you the most good." Voice-"We aro going to voto for you" As to Ellorbo's chargo that the lawyors are eating all the pap, Evans said that tno Logislaturo had not olocted a lawyer to a posi tion oxcept when one was noodod. Evans proccoded to toll his "tator" story on Ellerbo and said Ellorbo is now trying to get the wholo bank of potatoos. Voico-"I'll bot ho will got at tater." Evans asserted that no class of mon have been truor to the Ro form movement th an tho lawyors who bolong to it. "I have no apol ogies to make becauso I am a law yor." Evans said that Ellerbo had shown bad tasto in jumping on him at the Charleston mooting. Ellerbo: "Oh I just touched yor up lightly." Evans told of tho insults show. ered on him at the Chainristor mooting and of how ie had acted The audionce choorod him lustily and one man shouted: "You ought to have had some o us wool hats down there to cloar out that d-n gang." Evans said that it ill-bocome any man to try to'showv that h (Evans) had not boen loyal to th Reform movement. Voic-"You will b)o Governor, Evaas saidl ho had hoon draw into( this personal controverse Sagainst his will. The1 pople d not want it and do not care a sna abOut it. They want to hear met suros discussed. THEY LIKE TILE DISPEN SARY. Senator Evans concluded with warm and strong talk on the Di -pensary, in line with what ho hi saidl elsewhere. Common ting o: the condtablo feature, Evans sai those officers were called "Tillma ospies." .Voico-"They will be Evar .spies next." (Ohoors.) Evains-"Yos, and we are goir to have them." (Applause.) SThe crowd was universally f( tho Dispensary, andl backed Evam up in every way. TH''}E LION 0OF THE DAY. T 'wo-thirds of the crowd did nc Kwant to hoar anybody exceplt Till jman, andl when he was introduce a p~orfect whirl-wind of cheers an t applause burst on the air. Th~ showeor which had threatenedt (distribute itself earlier in the da . got itself in shape about time th Governor got readly and1( there wa a race bottwoon them to soe whic would got there first. The showc Won andl tihe Governor finishoe with the rain coming downm barc 'rTe Governor was b~areoode an an umbirella was 1hold over him. Somebody yilold Lto the Govoi nor to give Butler bricks. Tht Governor answoreod that he ha, made Butler tired of throwin bricks. IN A DELICATE POSITION. Governor Tillman said that be fore he began he would have ti touch en some questions raiseod b Evans and Elierbe. ni.ce-"E', a will be Gover The Gov~rumor said ho was in lelicateo position. lie was some. what in the position of a man with two wives, each one claiming to be the righ t wife, Hie was glad that he possessed two such strong friends as Ev'ans and Ellerbe, but neither could say that ho was his (Tillman's) candidato for Gover nor. "Yo! have. Lot your eyea open," said the (invernmor, "and after they go round you can decide between th em.". - The Governor continued: "El. lerbe says that 1 was in favof of an early convention. Ho is mistaken. I was in favor of a convontion but not in favor of an early conven tion." Tfe Governor told why he was in favor of a convontion. He said that an 'effort was made last wook to put that convention off but it had failed. It would not havo been right to havo changed front in the faco of the onomy. Tho Govornor said that ho had nothing to do with the caucus which had docided on tho convention and was not present at it.. "I will ex ovorato Ellerbe," said the Govor nor, "from being prosent at any caucusos in Columbia so far as I know." "As to bringing out a candidato for Govornor, I will simply stat6 this: Since last fall there has been a donand for a farmor for Gover nor. I iiever have claimed that this is a class movemont. When Ellorbo montioned this matter to me, I asked him to name the farm ors who were proposod for Gov ornor. He namod soveral. I told him none of thom would do. I asked: "Why don't you run?" Hie said his health was bad. I told in if he ran I would hold hands off." Voice--"I am going to vote for Evans." TillInan--"Well, if you are it is all right, but don't say he is my candidate or that Ellerbe is mine. Voto for whichover you think is the best mant. I will be satisfied with either.'" BUTLER'S NEPHEWS. Tillman guyed Butler about his new name (Uncles) for the Reformers. He was now claim ing kin with them to get their votes." Voice-"We are Tillman's un cles." (Laughter.) The Governor then proceeded to toll who the antis were. The n tis had dressed in silks and satins before 1890 and had dis crininated against some of their nephews. These nephews had finally kicked against the way their antis were dividing out the property and rebelled. Now the 9 poor antis have no silks and are a in a, bad fix. This humorous e story of the Governor was met ,with shout after shout of ap plause. '" The Governor did not forget to Y say somnoting about Butler. 0 He jumped on Butler for spendl P mng last night at Allendlale - "that nest,' as the Governor calls it-- instead of coining to Barnw~ell. During then last ten minutes of a th overnmor's speech it had Sbeen raining hard. The crowvd, * however, like those wvhich had " stood in~ the rain elsewhere, dwould have stood there until Snot a dry thread was left on a man to hear Tlillman1 speak. 's BUTLER'S BAD LUCK. Senator Butler was intro g dlucedI with the water tailing in torrents. Colonel Alixson held ran umbrella over him. I under a stand that the Senator had some pretty juicy things to say to Tlitiman if the rain had not shut Shim oft'. I expect that he wvill - turn them loose at Aiken to-day. Butler (lid not speak over two (I or three minutes. Referring to e Tillman's story of the Uncles 0 and Antis, lhe said that Tillman 7 dloes not want peace. Hie can e not live in clear' water but has a to keep the stream muddy to ex ist. rButler was occasionally inter 1ruptedl by loud c:heers for Till Inan. The camp)aign party left here this afternoon for Aikin, to morrow's place of meeting. ISome of the campaigners will rstop at Altendale until to-mor row...
