Taft on the Red Shirts. TaftIs report to the News ad Couri or of the meeting in Winnsboro on Saturday causes munch amu eiet 1nt her. 1o waIs cither pretty badly scared, or else wished to make politi Cl capital out of a noisy praltih yet as harmrless a mceting ' ihas ever Z10.stte A thier sees, I u olflcer inm every bush, ayd Taf may have been thrilled with terrr by every burrah for Hancock. That. wil i all the hurrahing and noise nu violencei wias contemplated, is best proved by' the fact that, nono w:s comoitd. Nothing could have preervd the peace but the determihatioi by tho Democrats tlieielves that it should be preserved. The people of Fairfield know full well how to show their determination wit hout 'offering need less violence. The facts o! Ihe mat ter are about these. 11, was intudcd to give Taft a retinue of red-shirts, who should ride along on either side. ui t the crowd was so great that this courd not be carried inito ell'ect, and thme masses flocking together from thrieeI streets intoe pace madeC alt~OI jam1. It was not knlown who had1( comle, and( the men riding in the rcar pushed for wvard to see who it was. Rlight here some of the mcen yelled, "Let us get at him," and somne (one, not haring on a red-shirt, did make a grabi at Tt' throat, but his hand was 1imediately~ wrenched away, and'Taft's collar un buttoned. 'This was the amount of it, and Taft wore his collar and cravat, all the time he was here. This part of his story is untrue.--During the speech, one of the horsemn plitched a riding switch over at Ta'ift on the stand. This was the alleged "stick" that struck him, but, as he himself says, did not hurt him. Thmis wias no outrage. There wuas no disgraceful "rowing" at the stand, and Major Woodward (lid not have to show the disgust that Taft claims he did. In fact, Taft got a much quieter hearing on Saturday than he ever used .to get before Mackey's negroes in Charles ton., The crowd even lauighed hearti ly at some jokes he told at thec expense of the Democrats. This does not look like the itirlated crowd he would have people believe were there. Walking home, as he say s, n Ih Colonel Rtion, h~e was followed by sonme red-shirts, but about a dozen colored men and boys were between him and the men on horseback, whose only aim was to make the tiling ridicu lous by escorting a Rladleal. Some times they crowded a little close, as horses walk raster thlan mhen, butt they made no effort to run over Taft. Som'e gen~tlemlen went to the hotel anud sat with Taft, and had14 a very jolly time, he it hero remarked, for two reasonls: Airst, it was said that somie hlaif a dozen of the crowd outside had an egg apiece (fresh ones, as Tatt himself says), that theoy p~roposed to make ani omelet of' in hils hlat, and it was thioulght, bettor t hat tis enl liay op~erattoln should be postponed till after the elee tionm; and in the next plazce It was thoughlt just as welli that Tfrt should be talking to lDemocrats as talking to the IRadieal leader's or tile counllr. HienCe tis kinid aittenltion to 1him1. As to Colonel Rion's exceedilng groat profanity 'Taft iSesp~eiallygo ~O~. Imagine Colonel Rioni winuding upl every argumment withl an oath I Taift must have goniecleanl daft abiout this time. It is all nonsense about puilling im off 11is horse. To grive tile hiorse a sly tap or so occassionlaiy to mnake( it "steIp along gaily" is about Is hlarmiless aL piece of ftu as could be dlevised, and1( is conclusIve p~roof that the crowd was not goin~g to do peIronal v'iolenhce. No Democrat waLs remfoved by force flrom tile room aifter' attempltinlg to kill Taft. One red-shirt camel in the roomhh 'and warbled in pianliessmo, to tile taue of "Baby Minle," the folio wing Paraibrkee, soid to havo been Import 3d fo dgefleid: "Got a pIstol in my pocket Better ninid, Letter mnind. This was about the beet Joke of -tlo Ilay. Maybo Taft didn't see it in :tbat light. Taft was very complaisant In tlh'e B1oro, nt) f-ely expressed the opitilon that with the exception of some "eight )r ten" Democrats lie had been very well received and very courteously rented. it Is true that Taft was not worth he trouble that was taken oi hi1s ac -ount, but the Democracy feel it due o themselves that their good name ;hould not be tarnished by any vio- I ence.
