TAMMANY HALL'S LAST VICTORY.
It was Won Fifty-Six Years Ago Some
Significant Facts of History.
[Letter in -the New York Evening
Post.]
It is not a little remarkable that Tam
many Hall has not had a success in its
dealings with national politics in near
ly sixty years-just fifty-six years, in
fact. I will hastily go over the record:
In 1836 it favored Martin Van Buren
for President. He was nominated and
elected. That was Tammany Hall's
last victory.
In 1840 it favored Mr. Van Buren.
Mr. Van Buren was defeated.
In 1844 it again favored M[r. Van
Buren, and Mr. Van Buren was again
:efeated.
In 1848 it favored Lewis Cass. Mr.
Css was nominated, but lost the elec
tion.
In 1852 it favored Governor Mfarey,
and he was defeated. Another Demo
rat was nominated and elected.
In 18.36 it favored Douglas. Another
Democrat was nominated and elected.
In 18630 it again favored Douglas. His
nomination split the party, and he re
eived but thirteen electoral votes.
In 1804 it favored McClellan. He
was nominated, but so handicapped by
a Tammany platform that he was over
whelmingly defeated.
In 1868 it favored Seymour against
Chase, with a combination with Lib
eral Republicans. Seymour was nomi
nated and overwhelmingly defeated.
In 1872 it va nt into the combination
with the Liberal Republicans, but fa
voredl Horace Greeley against Charles
Francis Adams. Mr. Greeley was nonmi
nated, and was overwhelmingly de
feated.
In 187(; it opposed thbe nomination of
\r. Tilden, even to the verge of a
threatened bolt. Mr. Tilden was nomi
nated and elected, carrying this State
by the biggest majority that had then
ever been given to a Democratic candi
date.
In ISSO, when the whole country
wanted to do justice to Mr. Tilden,
Tammany Hall prevented his renomi
nation by threatening a bolt. General
Hancock was nominated to suit Tam
many Hall, and was badly beaten.
In 1884 Mr. Cleveland was nominat
ed in the face of a protest from Tanm
many Hall, and elected in the face of
the organized bolt of a large number of
its leaders.
In 1888 Tammnany Hall seemed to
support Mr. Cleveland with cordiality,
~nd he was defeated at the polls.
Such is the record. Let aspiring
politiciains study it.
"Her's to the maiden of bashful fif
teen,
And here's to the widow of forty !"

SENATOI 31. C. AUTLEI.
The Divsons of the Democracy Can Only
be Healed and its Real Opinions Settled
at a Primary for State Officers.
To the Editor of the News and
Courier: Some days ago I received the
following letter:
Hon. M. C. Butler, United States
Senator. Washington-My Dear Sir:
The political situation in South Caro
lina is very serious. I desire to obtain
from you an expression of your ',iews
upon what course the conservative peo
ple of the State should take to bring
about the unity and harmony of the
party, which was so rudely broken by
the unnatural course of events in this
State two years ago.
I shall be very much obliged it you
will cover the subject as iully is, in
your judgment, the importance of the
issues to be discussed, may require, and
and wish that you would express your
views without reserve. I have address
ed a similar request to quite a number
of prominent and intelligent gentle
men in different parts of the State, and
hope that you will favor me with a re
ply at your earliest convenience.
Yours very truly,
J. C. EPHILL,
Editor The News and Courier.
Charleston, S. C., February 16.
Sharing with you the opinion that
"the political situation in South Caro
lina is very serious," and realizing that
it is my duty, with other citizens of
the State, to do what I can to hed;,l the
breaches made in the Democratic party
and restore harmony and good feeling,
I shall reply to your letter frankly and
without reserve.
In order to suggest a remedy it is
first necessary to ascertain, if possible,
the cause or causes of the trouble. We
find the Democrats of South Carolina
divided into three parts or factions.
Those who support the present State
Administration, those who oppose it
and express a purpose to test their
strength within party lines, and those
who oppose it, but do not commit
themselves to action within party
lines.
Now, to begin with, there is not .oom
in South Carolina for three factions
of the Democratic party-scarcely %oom
for a united, solid party, confronted as
it is by the common enemy, the Re
publican party.
If the breach continues one or more
of the factions will be absorbed by the
Republican party, or will absorb it.
This has been the experience in almost
every similar condition of political par
ties, and there is no reason to assume it
will not be so in our case.
The question I would like to put to
eyemypatriotic Democrat in the State
is this: "Would you be willing to see
the Republican party in power in
South Carolina again in any fcrm?'
Composed as it is of such a large ma
jority of the colored race, could any in
crement of the white race, with such a
controlling constituency of the other,
make it a safe depository of the ad
ministration of the affairs of the
State?
The white Democrats of South Caro
lina are not strong enough to divide. It
will not do to say there is no danger of
Republican supremacy in that State.
Political changes in this country are
sometimes sudden, often insidious, and
frequently it is the unexpected that
happens, and I now utter the warning
-we arc in great danger of the over
throw of white supremacy and the
rehabilitation of the Republican piarty,
if not in name, in form and substance,
for a political party,whatever its name,
is controlled and its policies determined
by its constituency. Once destroy the
Democratic party in South Carolina
and you have another domiinated by
the negro vote. We know what that
means.
Would it not be wise and patrictic in
this view of tihe situation to bury past
differences among ourselves, and if
need be agree to disagree so thait we
may get together? It is safe to assume
in controversies such as are now go ing
on in South Carolina, that errors andi
mistakes have been committed en all
sides. If this is admitted, and [ am
sure no man having knowledge of the
fralties of our,nature and the fallioility
of human judgment will undertake to
deny it, the door will be open for neu
tral concessions and forbearance.
During the last canvass Governor
Tllman and his friends assailed with
unusual vigor and pertinacity not only
the political methods and polic:es of
h is predecessors, but attacked their per
sonal characters and motives as wyell.
Charges were made wbich I believe
were afterwards admitted to be svith
out foundation. All thoughtful, con
servative people deprecated these
things at the time, and foretold evil
consequences. The evil consequences
have conme. The scenes were shifted,
andl the precedent having been (stab
lished, n.,w that the present Adruiina
tration is on trial, similar methods are
being pursued towards it.
The friends of the Administration
certainly ought not to complain o:f this,
and 1 (10 not know that they do. I call
attention to it to state the situation
fairly and frankly, so that it may be
looked squarely in the face. I call at
tention to emphasize the remark that
the habit of indulging in personal vitu
peration,. abuse and misrepresentation
is "a custonm better honored in the
breach than in the observanice,'' and to
express the hope that in the future it
will be abandoned. I do riot wish to
be understood as saying that all the
abuse and vilification of the last. can
vass was confined to Governor Tillman
and his friends. His opponents-sonme
of them-played a very lively part in
the performance, but this does not and
cannot justify it. Of course, if a man is
assailed personally. the temptation to
retort in kind is almost irresistible. I
plead guilty to the habit, at times, my
self, but this does not justify or make
And the newspapers-why should
their editors and reporters be de
nounced for publishing public facts and
expressing their opinions on them?.
Newspapers are the vehicles through
and by which news is communicated
to the public, which the nublic wants.
The editors and reporters, men like the
balance of us, express their opinions in
their editorials, and why should they
not? It does not make them public
enemies. What they say may be en
titled to no more weight than what
other mortals say, but they have a
right, nay more, a duty, to give their
opinions, and they are accepted or re
jected as they are wise or otherwise.
Why should patriotic citizens of the
State, who d not approve of all the
methods and policies and acts of the
present Administration, be denounced
as "Bourbons," aristocrats," "ring
sters," etc? And why should those
who approve of the methods, policies
and :icts of the present Administration
be denounced as "enemies to the State,"
"political tricksters." etc, etc' There
is no sense in all this. No good, but
untold harm must result from it.
It would be uncandid in me to say
that the present Administration is not
amenable to criticism. A good many
things have been done and left undone
which do not meet my approval, but
it is entitled to fair treatment. News
papers publish severe criticisms of the
Administration and they have a right
to publish them. Other newspapers
publish vigorous vindications of the
Administration, and they, too, have a
right to publish them-but abuse and
vituperation never settled a controverry
and never will. Political issues in a
free country are settled by facts and
arguments intelligently and fairly pre
sented to the people. In enlightened
communities such facts and arguments
only are effective.
Governor Tillman himself said in
the beginning of his Administration he
would be environed by many difficul
as, that he would encounter fierce op
position, critical judgment, etc., and
he has not been disappointed. How
much of this he ha; invited by his own
course the public understands. As one
of those who voted for him I enter
tained the hope that, once elected and
installed, he would adopt a conserva
tive, conciliatory course and allay the
irritation aroused by the exciting can
vass. I think he had it in his power
to have done so, and I sincerely regret
he did not, but he is the best judge of
his own actions and conduct, and I
presume is prepared to stand or fall by
them.
This much by way of preface (a very
long preface I admit) brings me to the
point of suggesting a plan upon which
I think we all ought to agree.
Each faction, no doubt, honestly
thinks it has a majority of the Demo
cratie voters behind it. Majorities shift
with such astonishing rapidity in this
country that few things are more un
ertain and deceptive. A faction or
party in a majority this year may be in
a hopeless minority next year.
How then are we to ascertain who
repres.ents a majority of the Democratic
voters? I answer, by a primary elec
tion. Submit the claims of every can
didate to the people and let them decide
at the polls who they want. Having
decided in this way every Democrat in
the State should and will rally to those
r'eiving a majority of the votes and
close up our divided ranks.
Surely nobody wishing to carry out
the will of the majority can object to
that. Governor Tillman, desirous of
vindicating his Administration, would
doubtless want a fair contest :n an open
field, and this method would give it to
him.
Other gentlemen becoming candi
dates would want an equal opportuni
ty to criticise him and present their
laims. They, too, would be content
to submit themselves to the people in
this way. The people themselves cer
tainly should not object. The newspa
pers should not object, for it -would
"furnish grist for their mills,'' and give
them a chance to vindicate their move
ment. Why, then, should not the State
executive committe provide for a pri
mary election for a~ll State officers, as is
now provided for members of Congress
and solicitors, and let the candidates
have it out before the people?
Meantime each candidate can organ
ize his forces, and, the better organized,
the more intelligent wi!! be the dis
cussion and more satisfactory the re
sult.
A call has been made for a meeting
of those opposed to the present Admin
istration in Columbia the latter part of
March, to nominate a cadidate for Gov
ernor. This is rather an innovation
on Democratic usage, but I know of no
law against it. The example was set
two years ago, and I presume any man
or set of men have a right to nominate
candidates. It is reassuring that the
movers of this March Convention, all
leading, reputable, influential, patriot
ic citizens, propose to make their fight
within the Democratic party and abide
the result. It is to be supposed they
will organize their forces thoroughly
and systematically in every county,
and that Governor Tillman, who is un
derstood to be a candidate to succeed
himself, is "looking after his fences"
and will also abide the result of the
canvass.
A primary election will compose our
difleulties, and in my judgment noth
ing else will. A pologizing for the length
of this lettter, I am truly yours,
M. C. BUTLER.

Office Survives and will Continue to
Exist Until Abolished by Act
of the Legislature.
LSpecial to News and Courier.]
COLE3MBI A, March 3.-The complica
tions arising over the neglect of the
last Legislature to provide any new
system of county government and now
the offices are hereafter to be filled have
been settled so far as the Attorney Gen
eral's opinion and the Governor's de
cision can settle it. The Democratic
State committee referred the matter to
the Governor, with a request that he
ask the opinion of the Attorney Gen
eral.
Governor Tillman addressed the fol
lowing inquiry to Attorney General
McLaurin:
"The Hon. J. L. McLaurin, Attorney
General-Dear Sir: It has been called
to my attention that there exists in
the public mind a doubt as to the office
of county commissioner, and in order
to set, the matter at rest, I would ask
that you give me your written opinion
as to what effect, if any, the passage of
the constitutional amendment abolish
ing that office has upon the existing
boards.
"Do they hold over till the Legislature
directs some other form of county gov
ernment or will it be lawful to elect a
new board next November?
"B. R. TILLMAN, Governor."
Attorney General McLaurin, not
withstanding he is hard at work with
Judge Melton preparing the answer in
the Alexander-Agricultural hall mat
ter, has prepared his opinion on this
interesting question.
TH1E COMMISSIONERS ARE IN IT,
says Mr. McLaurin, and, averaging ten
aspirants to the county, there will be
a chance for some 350 more candidates
to seek the glories of office. Mr.
McLaurin writes as follows:
"To His Excellency, Governor B. R.
Tillman-Dear Sir: Your letter of yes
terday's date has been received, in
which you ask for the opinion of the
Attorney General as to what effect, if
any, :he passage of the constitutional
amendment abolishing the office of
county commissioner has upon the ex
isting boards, and also if the present
officers hold over or are new ones to be
elected. Section 19 of Article 4 of our
Constitution provided for a board of
county commissioners to be elected
biennially and defines the general juris
diction of such boards.
"An amendment to the Constitution
providing for the repeal of this section
was submitted to the qualified electors
of the St..e at the general election in
1890, and a majority voting in favor of
the repeal, the usual Act ratifying the
amendment to the Constitution was
passed at the first session of the next
General Assembly.
"It is certainly a proper attribute of
iegislative power to provide suitable
machinery for the conduct of county
affairs. Any doubts existing on the
points in question, I am satisfied, have
arisen from a misapprehension of what
is the effect of the State Constitution
on legislative power.
-"The Constitution of the States are
declarations of negative powers, while
that of the United States is a grant of
affirmative power. We look in the Con
titution of the United States for grants
of legislative power, but in the Consti
tution of the State to ascertain if any
limitation has been imposed on the
complete power with which the legis
lative department of the State was
vested in its creation. [Cooley on Con.
Law.]
"The section of theConstitution which
was repealed was simply of an a.ffirma
tive legislative character and the Leg
islature would have power to create the
present board without any constitu
tional authority, or to have provided
some other system of county govern
ment, and the statute law, as it now
stands, is not in conflict with the Con
stitution. The constitutional restric
tion referred to operates to prevent the
Legislature from altering the scheme
of county government except in con
formity w ith that provision, and the
amendment striking out that provision
leaves to the legislative power an un
limited and unrestricted control over
the county governments. This restric
tion being removed the Legislature
may now, in its wisdom, provide such
a system as may be deemed best calcu
lated to promote the welfare of the
people.
"'In all such cases no intention to
abrogate previous existing laws can be
resumed in the absence of expression
to that efl'ect.' [Enlich on Statutes.]
"I understand the rule as laid down
by Cooley and other authorities to be
in substance that when 2 atute has
been passed by the Legislature with
in its general legislative powers, but in
pursuance of an affirmative -direction
in the Constitution, the repeal of this
direction will not necessarily operate
to repeal the statute, but the validity
of the statute will be referred to the
general legislative power.
"It is, therefore, my opinion that the
State law upon the subject of the coun
ty commissioners is in full force and
not abridged or repealed in any way
by the constitutional amendment, and
that the term of the present officers
will end upon the election and qualifi
cation of their successors. The elec
tion of these oificers under this con
struction of the law will, of course,
take place at the usual time for hold
ing the election."
"JOHN L. McLAUmsN,
"Attorney-General."
The decision will settle the anxiety
of very many aspirants for.a $300 job.
