Senator-Klcot T?lman and Govornor Evans speaking as Reformers and cer tain gentlemen Speaking as Conserva tives have ?gp**ed that the delegates to the Constitutional Convention should t consist of Reformers and Conservatives in equal numbers, as nearly as it will admit of division, upon certain condi tions. Quoting Senator Tillman tho "main" ono is "tho preservation of white supremacy by a qualification of , the ballot." Another is that "every delegate must subscribe to the general proposition that no whito man should - be disfranchised, except for crime." It is clear, it is inevitable that thoso two conditions cannot be mot in tho Con vents -. v/xoepi hy the onactmont or making possible tho future enactment Of a device by which tho negro may bo disfranchised and which is at tho samo time suseoptiblo of partial, loose and flexiblo application to tho whito man.

We deplore tho presonco of tho no - gcp vote in the South. Wo shudder at tho lmporllment of whito supromaoy. H/at wo ?silevo that it may bo prosorv 1 without roBort evon to a rofined and rowdly fabricated method of election 'cony. So grave a problom must per of solution without the debauchory tbandonraont of conscience, /e grofttly rogrot that any Consor ive should hnvo given his consent to. compromise. Thoir motives doubt loss wore good, thoy wore acting as thoy conceived tho public intorost dlc ? tnted. Wo havo had and still have tho greatest respect for thorn but thoy did not act for us. Wo repudiate tho sug gestion of a compromise with Tillman which to us involves the sacrifice of self-respect. We confess to something like a feel ing of lassitude, of hopoloss disgust with rogard to this Constitutional Con vention. Wo had hoped for a high pa triotism to deal with the question of suffrage,?one that would not havo flinched at tho enactment of an educa tional qualification applying to all men aliko,?one, as wo deem, necessitated * by our unfortunate race conditions. We have so far found it conspicuously absent from all factions and factions of factions. It is mortifying and humil -?--iatlnfcv' So wo have about ceased to earo whether or not we havo represen tation In tho Constitutional Conven tion. Howevor, on tho 14th of March tho books will open for a now registration. Wo may all want to vote when the time comes. Lot us got registration tickets. Wo advise and urge every man in Laurons County above the ago of 21, Tlllmanito and Anti to prepare for any contingency that may arise. Register! Don't bo fooled with the twaddle of compromise. Roglstor whether or not thero bo compromise and if adocont, respectable compromise should bo oftocted, all right, and if not, then we are armed and equipped for action in the August elections. An innumerable number of number less conferoncos and conventions have assembled under all sorts of auspices v for all linos of political aotlon in Co lumbia during tho last thirty days. These aggregations were mostly on political power and supromacy bont. Pending all this the grandoos of tho """^eity by the sea and down on Judge Popes "battlomonts of the Bartery" determined to havo tho State make un exhibit at the Atlanta exposition. They invited Governor Evans down I and tho result is the Governor gives ( his official aid and countenanco to thoir 'laudable scheme to have South Caroli ' wVs resources duly oxhibited upon this great advertising occasion. Tho Gov ernor has appointed commissioners from the various countios to proparc an exhibit worthy of tho paramount object. For tho ond in view and for this particular kind of work His Ex cellency has made a first rato Laurons selection in tho persons of tho follow ing prominent citizens: Col. J. D. M. Shaw, Mr. J. O. C. Fleming, Capt. J. B. Humbort. # - ? * The nowspapors from all parts of the State are laden with accounts of liquors seizod and confiscated into tho States Medical Commissariat. The State must bo growing very rich ? what with tho ordinary logltimato dispensary profits. At tho prices at which tho stuff is dispensed it must ~x amount to great figures unloss it is dis honestly converted. The blind tigor has a hard timo. It seems that a largo bribe goes to tho informer, and thore Is danger of tho State being convortod into a vast confederation of spies. Looking to presont conditions is what our popular politicians mean whon thoy cry aloud about the "proud past of tho State," her glorious traditions and his tory, and UkO specimens of tho bom bastes, indulged by inflated political charlatans. mk * * * The* ?lato Farmers Alliance mot in Colutnpia last week.

Tho paper promises to bo independent and not to "pass under the yoke." Prom all indications somebody in this Stato is going to be mightily fooled in tho next six months. The gudgeon is a fresh water fish, but occasionally, is found closo to whero tho tide moots tho current. It takes bait with sueh alacrity that It requlr"" no Sir Isaac to land It. * * * For properly presenting tho pump kins, 'possums, pindar8 and pcrtators of tho Stato at tho Atlanta exposition Governor Evans has selected a largo number of prominent Conservatives. * * ? Ex-Governor Tillman and Gou. R. R. Hemphlll are tho only Democrats loft in thoso diggings. Alas! tho spirits of Jefforson and Jackson, should they "revisit tho glimpses of tho moon." Ghosts of tho dopartod carpet bag crowd haunt tho souls of W. D. Evans, and Kmnl ot. al.; each soparato hair of thoso gontlomon stands on end "like quills of tho fretful porcupine." "Tho Georgia delegation at Ral eigh," says tho Wilmington Mossen gor, "was simply amazed at tho magni tude and excollonco of the Notth Caro lina Stato Museum. Thoy uro roportod as saying that nothing in tho South approaches it, and that it is an exposi tion in itself. Cordial praise well bo stowed." Thoy havo not seen tho S. O. Stato Museum, evidently.

"I hail long been nfleeted with kidi.ey troubles. I had tried all the mineral waters from Saratoga to Porter Springs. I bad tried the Western waters and all others that I could hear cd, and I have no hesi taney in saying that none have benefited nie even approximately as much as the Harris Lithia Water. 1 was using the Buffalo Lit bin Water when I heard of this. I do not expect to use the Buffalo Water again. "When I went to Harris Lithia Springs, 1 had t > be assisted out of my chair. After remaining two weeks I could gel about as good as anybody. It acted on mo like a charm?quicMy and effectively. This water is now being largely sohl in Columbia nnd 1 think every person who has tried it will agree with mo in the belief that it is the most rc in ark able water in the country. From a simple interest in suffering hu manity, I would like very much to sec it given a trial. C. A. BALDWIN, Columbia, S. C. Harris Lithia Water Co., Harris Springs, S. C. Asiibvu.lb, N.
