Gonzales Stakes Reply to Senn tor Johnson, of Fnlr'iehl, niio VI rote Abusive Letter. Columbia, S. C, May 30?The fol lowing communication by Capt. Wm. E. Gonzales appeared In The Nowb and Herald of Wlnnsboro today In an swer to a statement Issued In that pa per by W. J. Johnson, member of the senate from Falrleld county: Wm. E. Gonzales Replies to YV. J. Johnson. Editor Tho News and Herald: Some time ago you published a card from W. J. Johnson, senator from Falrleld county, In which he asserted that The State had refused to print an article wherein he proved its editor "a liar." You published It for him. Mr. Editor, you were Imposed upon. W. J. Johnson did send a card to The State to which publicity was not given, because The State Is under no obliga tion to open Its columns to articles containing offensive personalities, or bordering on blackguardism. But no right was denied him. as tue one point Johnson made calling for correction by The State was given conspicuous cor rection on the editorial page. In the card you printed, W. J. John son refers to me as "the shlHUng Cu ban." His purpose Is to prejudice the ignorant and to create resentment against the position of The State to ward public questions affecting South Carolina, by Implying that the paper is owned and edited by "foreigners." And so doing he knowingly, malicious ly, grossly and absurdly falsified, as others of his stripe have disseminated falsehood with similar intent for months and years. I have never before made reference to lineage; It Is rarely done with good taste. I neither lean upon nor ad mire those who go for support or shelter to family trees. No favors have been asked by us of South Caro lina on account of family history, mil itary service, or otherwise. None will be. nut since falsehood has been told by the senator from Fairfleld county, It is the right of the people of that county to know the truth. While Cuba has contributed men to the world whose names would honor the roll of patriots of any country, I am a South Carolinian; a South Caro- ' llnlan by right of 2."><) years residence of my people; bound to its soil and to the loftiest sentiments of the state by their honorable part in every epoch of colonial and state history, including the signing of the Declaration of In dependence. Lands coming to them as grants from the Lords Proprietors are theirs today. My great-grand father, William Elliott, whose name was given to ine, was. according to O'Dannell's standard work, "History of Cotton." the grower of the "first suc cessful crop of cotton In South Caro lina" in 17!'i). A hundred years pre vious to 17110 that cotton-grower's great-grandfather was planting in South Carolina, and a little later was "a member of the colonial assembly." Fifty-odd years ago when my father, then long a citizen of the United States. land-owner and slave-holder In South Carolina, and carrying scars of battle in the glorious cause ol liberty, volunteered for South Carolina's war against the Unltod States, there was no cry of "Cuban!" When he, with others of the staff was publicly thanked by General Boauregard for service at the reduction of Fort Slim ier, none ?Mied "Cuban!'' When he was chief of artillery for South Caro lina, Georgia and Florida, and built forts and personally got cannon to mount in them to protect our long coast line from the enemy's menacing Meets, the only cry I Und recorded In the press of that day in regard to him was one of thankfulness that the en ergy and skill of A. .1. don/ales were standing between the people of the in terior and the would-be Invaders. When he, a half century ago, was. by nppolntment, the personal representa tive of the governor of South Caro lina in military affairs on the coast of this state. It was not as a "Cuban." When A. J. Gonzales surrendered at Greensboro?threo weeks after Appo mattOX?as colonel of artillery, Con Fedorate States Army, chief of artil lery of Hardee's Corps, and acting chief of artillery of Joseph E. John ston's Army, and began that weary march through desolation toward the stark chimneys Where his home had been on the coast of South Carolina before Sherman's raiders applied tho torch and left guant Want to occupy the country behind them, I do not be lieve. Mr. Editor, there was one South erner of that period so despicable as to yelp "Cuban" at the Confederate soldier who freely offered his life to the Southern Cause and uncomplain ingly lost In that Cause all tint n man of honor may lose.
