The communication of Perry Little, himself a colored man. in another column, is sensible.

As in the event of a Republican majority in the next Congress Cannon will be speaker and have the tariff and other issues'in the hollow of his hand it will be better to take the straight tin from him thal if the tariff is revised it will be revised higher. » • • The Republicans won as Usual in Vermont, but how much it cost the Proctors is a matter o? speculation. Reports from the State sav that money is very plentiful and even the farmers are satisfied. Votes have been sold as high as $10 a head and ♦he determination of the Republican machine to show independents that it does not pay to meddle in Vermont imlitlcs, mav have caused the nrice for votes to advance. What c.imes Republicanism will have to ?.rawer for not only in Vermont but *-lese where! * * * The suggestion of “Taxpayer." as made in another co’umn of thL pa per, appears to be a most reasonable one. The ledger wants the citv to grant a charter for the street railway W© do not see the injustice of grant ing a blanket charter that cover all other privileges which the city may have to offer, provided, of course, proper restrictions are placed about the charter. We have not seen this application for a charter, but are . Inclined to the belief that, there are many wild rumors as to the demands nade by the applicants. • • * It was A. B. Wil iams who used to write the name of Gen. R. R. Hemp hill as “Robert Reversible,’’ ar\d d ur ' ing the past few weeks the genera! has been living up to his reputation. General Hemphill has no equal as a lightning change artist—YorkviUe inquirer. That is very unkind. Surely Mr. Hemphill has the right to change his views whenever he feels like it. espec ially if he becomes convinced that bis for aer views were erroneous. We v ibh that not on y bo but all pro-dls- ’■onsarv editors would change their views on the dispensary. * * * Willie R. Hearst has been nominated on the Democratic ticket for the governorship of New ^ork State. This is infinitely worse than we South "arolinians have been doing for the mst dozen years. No man has ever been nominated for office in this State who was not superior to Hearst. His only asset is his money. Ho possoses little or no ability, and were it not for his money and Arthur Bisfcane, . bo i the brain >1 the eombinaiion. ’a' t won d n or he heard ol. He non utii>.

A great success of the American stage to be seen in Gaffney tin- eom- ! ing season is Rip Van Winkle. Gaff ) m v audiences will no doubt appre- ] ciate such attractions as this, tlie | Glansman. Florence Da\ is in Ihie 1 Mayer Maid, and other well know attractions. The theatrical manage ment is making an effort to give the patrons of Gaffney, attractions worthy of their patronage. A number of ex eeptionally fine bookings are under way and will tend to strengliten the tiln-ady strong list of plays for the season. The True Sentiment. (Greenville News.) Editor Del'amp. of The Gaffney L<*d "‘•r. says: "When it gets to a point where we have to attempt to dra~ down a man's character in order to J A|1( | noW CO mes the Gaffney Ledger make a point, we will lay aside the j a|1| j j n f orms lls that Amos Owens did pi and take up a calling more becom- nol 0 |-je:iuate or profit bv the cherry ing a man.” Those of us who know tree sw indle. Rossiblv we may get Victims Parted With the Swaa. (Spartanburg Journal.) Brother DeCamp know that he means exactly what he says, and it is the trm* sentiment. And we are glad to see that there is so much of that same kind of feeling predominating the newspaper profession of South Caro lina. Will Run Somebody a Close Race. (Donalds Progress.) Hon. E. H. DeCamp. editor of the Gaffney Ledger, has been mentioned as a candidate for clerk of the senate He would doubtless make a good one. and if lie offers for the place he will nip somebody a close race. He is ver - "opular. the cherrv trees of history straight ened out some day. Meanwhile the victims of Amos Owens concerned arc not caring who "of the swa , r since thev have long since given up hope of recovery. W.
