A QUEEt COM;INATION.
The Greenville Democrat wants to
see a Tillman-Hill delegation sent to
Chicago, standing squarely on the
Ocala platform, and, as one of the del
egates, of course suggests Governor
Tillman. T at would be a very queer
combination, it seems to us. In the
first place, as we understand his posi
tion, Governor Tillman does not stand
squarely on the Ocala platform, but
is opposed to the sub-treasury plank,
which is, from the amount of discus
sion given it, the most important plank
i.r the platform. In the next place, as
we understand Gov. Tillinan, lie favors
some good Western man for the presi
dencv. And, in the third place, is Mr.
Hill in favor of the free coinage of sil
ver? He delivered a long speech on
the subject some time ago, but our
recollection of it is, that when he get
through, you knew very little more
about his position on this question
than you did before.
As we understand Gov. Tiiiman and
the Ai;iance, they are for the free coin
age of silver. Yet the Democrat says
because the convention will be over
whelmingly Tillman, therefore, of
course, it means a solid Hill delegation
to Chicago. "Of this there is not a sin
gle vestige of a doubt."
In the Newberry County Conven
tion nothing was said about the can
didates for President. The convention
was for Tillnian, but that did not mean
that it was necessarily for Hill. It
pledged to abide the result and stick
to the democracy, national, State and
county.
We admit that this is rather a queer
combination, but then of late there is
no telling what will happen next.
"TRAITORS IN THE CAMP."
What would be thought of the gal
lantry, the chivalry, the honor of a
man who, while professing and prof
fering his love to one woman, should
secretly lavish his love upon another?
Would he not iei it and receive the
just condemnation of all right-think
ing m n nnd women? He who thinks
the DenI.ie party no better than
the Republican has no place iu its
ranks, and should be accorded no voice
in its councils. He shonll be regarded
as a traitor in the camp, for at his
hands democracy would be constantly
in danger of receiving a mortal wound
in the house of a professed friend.
From such faith and practice may
democracy ever be delivei ed!-Keowee
Courier.
This is all very Lrue, and we endorse
what you say. It is aiways better to
have an open enemy. You know
what to expect from such an one.
These fellows who profess great friend
ship, but who are always ready at the
first opportunity to stab you in the
back, are to be avoided and dreaded.
But we greatly fear that democracy
has within its ranks many such friends
just at this time. They should get out
of the party if they cannot stand by it.
No one can find fault with a man if he
finds that he cannot endorse the plat
form of the democracy and prefers
that of some other organization that
has a platform more in accordance
with his views. But he should not
endorse that other platform and still
claim the right to have a voice in the
councils of the democracy.
To the maintenance and perpetua
tion of our form of government par
ties seem to be essential, and as long as
that is so we will have to have party
law and party discipline-, and the man
who pretends to be a Democrat while
at the same time he is stabbing dem
ocracy in the back should be excluded
from its councils.
Col. E. S. Keitt says "the boys" are
beginning to get on his side and soon
after the national convention inOmaha,
July 4, there wvill be a full ticket in tlie
field, in every State in the Union, from
governor to coroner, standing square
on "the demands."
Mr. B.'F. Perry, editor of the Green
ville Dem>crat, is a candidate for dele
gate to mne Chicago Coqvyen tion. When
ever a man takes a prominent p)art in
the campaign in favor of the "domi
naut element" you may write it down
as pretty certain that he is looking for
ward for some c11ice or honor. That is
one of the strange things of this great
fight for the rule of the people; and
another strange thing is that the peo
ie don't see it.
The State campaign is cooling off a
little, and we are glad to see it. From
the start he has, it will take the old
ringrule candidates ten years to get
within hailing distance of Governor
Tillman, even if he does not move an
-other step forward. To oppose him is
like bombarding the sun of day with
i re-poppers.-Registcr.
Then why do you waste so much of
your valuable space in trying to keep
up the bitterness and strife, and in ar
raying one class of our people against
another? If vou are that far ahead you
might devote some of your talent and
energy to building up our material
growth as a State.
Col. Ellison S. Keitt, of Enoree Plan
tation, says it is a mlisnomer to speak
of the Thlirdl Party when talking about
the People's Party. It is strictly the
First Partv', according~ to Col. Kei/,
and he says victory for this paY N is
certain this year in thirty out of thie
forty-four States, and theni the people
will get the r of they so munch need.
We shall sez. We presume Col. KCeitt
will lead the hiosts to victory in South
Carolmia.
Faiton County, in which is Atlanta,
Ga., has sent full Cleveland delegates
to the Georgia State Convention which
meets in Atlanta to-day.
It looks very much as if the Georgia
State Convention would to-cday send
instructed Cleveland delegates to Chii
cago.
Thxe great cantilever iron bridgej
across the Mississippi at Memphis wasj.

GOV. TILLMAN ON THE AE:[OCRACF
Gov. Tillman was interviewed ias
week by the New York World on thi
extravagance of the present Congress
In the course of the interview he hai
something to say of the Demorracy, o
course.
The following are two extracts fron
what he is reported as saying:
"The Dewccrats are not doing them
selves credit as economists. Their ex
travagance will be apt to give the Thirc
party still another boom, because the
people are already disgusted by theii
bebavior on the silver bill. * * * *
"The present condition-of things ir
Washington demonstrates the fact thal
neither of the old parties will give the
people relief. My opinion is that the
extravagance of the present Congress
added to their cowardice on the silvei
question, will give a good root to the
Third party."
The name of Mr. T. C. Gower, o
Greenville, is suggested by the friend.
of that gentleman as Railroad Corn
missioner. Mr. Gower is one of the
most successful business men in Caroli
na, and he will fill the position witt
honor to himself and credit to our State
While carefully guarding the interest
of the people, be will act with justicr
and fairness by the railroads. A bette
man for this important place could nol
be found than Mr. Gower. He is in ful
sympathy with the reform movement
and has ever been a true friend to oul
farmers.-Register.
We thought the Rev. Mr. Sligh, o
Newberry, was to have this place. "Ho
is in full sympathy with the reforn
movement," and is not only a "true
friend to our farmers," but one of then
himself. But it seems now to be thE
policy not to give the farmers anythinj
but only "the friends" of the farmers
Mr. Wm. C. Wolfe is announced it
the Orangeburg papers as a canr:didati
for the Legislature. His announce
ment is signed by twenty-six citizens
Mr. Wolfe, we believe, is the man wh4
says that he understands thoroughl
the financial question, and as he is thi
only man whom we have ever heari
claim so much, be ought not to be con
tent with the Legislature, but shoul
be immediately sent to Congress.
The case in which Leiutenant-Gov
ernor Gary was appointed to sit or

McGowan was not reached and wil
not be heard before next November
So the question will not be settled be

Mr. Gray may be eligible then.
The State Convention meets to-day
The Third Party people should with

July 4.
IS IT A JOKE?
In a letter to the People's Party Pa
per, Atlanta, Ga., we find the follow.
ing law quoted by Congressman Tom
Watson. He must be perpetrating a
huge joke on the people, for if this
were the law, and it were enforced,
some of our Senators and Congressmer
would not make enough to pay travel
ing expenses; for instance, Senator
Irby, with only six days to his credit.
We havn't a copy of the Statutes at
hand to certify to the correctness of
the quotation.
"Section 40 of Chapter Four of thE
Revised Statutes of the United Statei
reads thus:
"'The Secretary of the Senate and
Sergeant-at-Arms of the House, re
spectively, shall deduct from thE
monthly payments of each membei
or delegate the amount of his salary
for each day that he has been absent
from the Senate or House, respective
ly, unless suich member or delegate
assigns as the reason for such absencE
the sickness of himself or of some
member of his family.' "
The Southern Baptist Convention.
(Reported for The Herald and New.]
Monday morning the conventior
was called together at the appointed
hour. The thanks of the conventior
were tendered to Dr. H. C. Maybie,
Seeratary Missionary Union, for hiu
instructive and inspiring address; and
at his request it was decided to send
messengers to the anniversaries al
Philadelphia. The question of re.
ducing representation was taken. up.
but the-convention could not see that
a reduction was necessary.
The work of foreign missions was
discussed and the treasurer's report
read and adopted. The committee or
financial plans reported a variety of
methods adopted by the various States.
The committee did not think that this
variety had been beneficial in every
case, and they recommended that thE
variety be reduced as far as possible:
that the Home and Foreign Board
make such appropriation as they deem
necessary for the work. After several
speeches had been made emphasizing
different phases of the report, the com
mittee appointed for the (unday-school
Board reported. This is the infant
board of the convention, having been
organized at the meeting of 1891. Even
wise and judicious men had grave
doubts as to the propriety of having
this board, but such has been its suc
ess this the first year of its existence
that these doubts are no longer enter
tained; it now promises to be one of
the most potent agencies of the con
ention.
The report of the Southern Baptist
Theological Seminary is encouraging.
The main building has been begun.
The attendance during this year has
ncreased 40 ner cent. There are more
tudetts in attendance upon this sam
nary than any other in America. A
ew scheme of having four degrees has
een introduced. Dr. E. C. Dargar, of
harleston, S. C., was elected as asso
iate professor with. r. Broadus.
The work of the Home Board was
hen considered The colored people
mnd foreign population received ^spe
ial attention. The report of thE 'ork
n Cuba- was very encouraging, ,. S.
ayne, of Boston, who has spent sev
ral winters in Cuba, and who has had
pportunity of seeing just what is be
ng done, spoke very favorably of the
ork. It was with pleasure that the
pnvention listened to the great mis
sTonary of that island, A. J. Diaz.
Tuesday morning woman's work
is considered, which called forth
ome enthusiastic speeches. The re
ort gave statistics showing the pro
ress of the work. 'The day has come
wen woman's true sphere is recog
ized in the work of the Church. It
s now evident that those churches are
he most active, not only in mission
ork but in all the work of the church,
were the women are deeply interested
in missions and have a woman's mis
sion society.
The reports on Papal and Pagan
felds were read, and several of the
issionaries who were in attendance
pon the convention made speeches,
iving encouraging reports as to the
ork in the different fields.

Is no Chance for Cleveland.
[Special to News and Courier.)
COLMBIA, May 15.-Senator Irby ea
a.rrived in the city this evening and is rit
quartered at the Grand Central Hotel. hi
He comes to preside at the meeting of
the executive committee to be held here be
o Tuesday evening. The most im- ea
portant business of the committee will in
be to decide upon the time and place to
for the campaign meetings. Chairman er
Irby thinks the meetings ought to start en
in the lower part of the State, and that al
1 they will begin between June 10th and w
20th. The members of the executive th
committee will be consulted as to the is
best time for holding the gatherings in p1
the respective counties.
Talking about The nature of the meet- th
ings Senator Irby said that it was a be
very good time for him to answer a vc
story published in the Atlanta Journal lic
some time ago, in which it said that on i
the train between Washiugton and in
Charlotte he, Senator Irby, had said ti,
that he intended to have campaign pl
meetings and joint discussions between pe
I Sheppard and Tillman if it brought on th
riot and war. Senator Jrby says that
he said then and says now that lie did re
not care whether they have any joint
discussion or not. It is his duty under (s
the constitution, as State chairman, to m
call those meetings in every county in D
the State. If the candidates see fit to ev
go or stay away that's there business F<
and not his. He is compelled to call the j.
meeting, but he says he has no right to of
1 enforce any joint discussion. Invita- L
tions will be issued to candidates for te
the Democratic primary. They can
join in the discussions also. Chairman
Irby thought the campaign wodld re
semble that of 1890, aithough he hardly
thought it would be as bitter.
Branching off on the Congressional ti(
canvass he remarked, after thinking tii
over it, "I bave concluded to recoin- in
mend to the executive committee to pc
either appoint separate days for candi- th
dates for Congress to speak, or allow St
them to make their own appointments. hi
Otherwise they would not get a chance T
to speak, all the time being taken up es
by State oflicers." e
There has recently been a great deal st;
said about Senator .rby's declining the se
position of State chairman, and in an- %
l swer to my questions on that point he ca
said: "I am undecided as to- whether I be
will give it up or not. I had thought Ti
some time ago that I would give it up ur
at this meeting. I would much prefer th
not to hold to it, as it has interfered ca
very much with my Senatorial duties or
and has caused me to be away from co
Washington very much more than I Ti
wanted to." Pr
Aside from this, under the anti-free pL
pass law, Senator Irby's trips here cost in,
him considerable money, and from the co
general tone of his long and interesting m
talk he seems inclined to resign and Cl
have the committee elect some one of w<
its good members as chairman. m
"Well, what do you expect your.
May Convention to do?" Fr
"I look for conservative, harmonious na
and wise action in its deliberations. ti<
The farmers are the most conservative ev
people in the world, and they will
control it by an overwhelming majoriiy. an
They are all loyal Democrats." th
"Will not the Alliance conference th
dictate the policy of the Democratic af
Convention?" th
"I do not think that the Alliance un
conference will deal harshly with their th
opponents in the convention, "he re
p lied," much less a large element of of
Non-Alliance men, who are ineligible ra:
to membership. I cannot, however. be
see any real objection to Democrats, be
who happen to be members of the Alli
ance, meeting as Democrats and formu- de
hating any propositions that they may Pr
fee! is for the good of the Democratic -i
party or for them as citizens. The Alli
ance is led by conservative but deter
mined men, and I feel confident that
there will be no rash action." s
Senator Irby does not, however,
think that a platform will be adopted
by the conference, although resolutions
may be accepted.
When asked what the May Convyen- St
tion would really do, he replied: se
"What it was called for-elect dele- da
gates to Chicago and a member of the of
national committee. I really don't see as
that it would do any good to enderse C(
Tillmr.n, or that it would do any harm te
not to do so, for he has already been at
endorsed in the election of the dele- JC
gates who meet here on Wednesday." p~
Branching off on a national politics eli
he remarked that "it is a mistake ar
about Cleveland being nominated at eli
the Chicago Ccnvention. H ill, Gorman, P~
Gray and Boies, either one stand a th
better chance of being nominated than c
Cleveland. I don't think Cleveland
will get it, because the Democrats do m
not think he can be elected if nomi- hr
nated. The nomiaation of Cleveland en
would tear our local organizations all ti(
to pieces through the South. There ca
would be very great danger of the ci
strength of the Third Party in nmany C'
of the Southern States. We might
afford to lose another Presidential i
election, but we can't afford to have c
State politics disturbed. Governor ga
Tilden, of New York, was elected
President and sacriliced in order to on
give us a State Government. We can't
afford now to nominate Cleveland and
put us back where we were before
1876."
"WVho is your favorite for the candi
date?" 5.P
"I am going to stand by the no-nine' ti(
of the party. I am against Cleveland (h
first, last and all the time. I amt for the Cc
man that can wint after nomination." Ni
He wouldn't name a preference, and In:
said that he might do so provided he dx
was elected a delegate. HI-e steemed G:
quite enthusiastic over Gorman, and be
said that were he not from Maryland th
he would sweep the country. He may
do so anyiway. State and national.
politics were all liable to very great Gi
changes long before the election, and pr
he did not care to do too much specu- pr
lating. . sai

COLUMBIA, May 14.-The Prohibi
)n faction may take a very much
ore conspicuous part in the approach
b campaign than is generally sup
-sed. It is useless to underestimate
e strength of the element in the
ate, and in a quiet way a strong pro
bition sentiment is being worked up.
ie leaders do not, as a matter or fact,
pect to make a successful independ
.t fight, but will probably turn their
rength to those who proclaim them
Ives the friends of their doctrines.
bat the Convention that has been
lied for the26th inst will do it would
exceedingly difficult to anticipate.
iose who issued the call are themselves
iable to reach any conclusions as to
e most advisable course. Some advo
te co-operation with the Tillmanites
Conservatives, according to the en
uragement received from leaders.
iere are many of the more orthodox

cing a ticket in the field and imak
g a fair, square fight. Should such a
urse be agreed upon, and it is the
are improbable of the two, Mr. L. D.

The call for a convention, issued on

ything it will most probably be seen
at the chief support will come from

ect the Tillmanite vote more than

AT LANTA, May 1G.-The Georgia
ate Democratic convention will as
:nble in this city at noon oin Wed nes
y. The convention will be composed
3~>0 members. There is a difference
to the standing of the delegates. The

tly anti-Cleveland, figure.e out 220
ti-Cleveland and 130 Cleveland. The
urnal, which espouses Cleveland,
actically reverses these figures, and
tiins that the convention will be out
dout for Cleveland. Trhe controlling
~menit of the convention will be conm
sed of men whso take little part in

A strong feeling exists for a Western

OMAIA, Mav 13.--The Pcople's party
national executive coramittee met yes- j
terday with the local executive com
mittee to discuss in detail some of the -
arrangements to be made for the Con
vention to be held on July 4. Ignatius _
Donnelly, of Minnesota. Ii. A. Taube
neck, of Illinois, R"obert Schilling, of -
Wisconsin, and : r. Washburn, of 1
Massachusetts, were lreseur. The ques
tion of admission to the Convention r
hall was discuszed. and it was decided s
to issue tickets. Schilling thought that
would raise a terrible howl against the
committee and he did not want it that
way, but it was stated that t.ienty
thousand people would bethere clamor
ing for admission, and only four thou
sand could get in. Paul Vaudervert, of
Nebraska, stated that if the doors were
thrown open to the crowd the com
mittee would regret that it ever at- t
tempted to hold a covlelntion. No
nomination would be made in a week, i
if atall, and even then they would not
be made by the People's party. There
was enough opposition to the party in
some parts of the count ry to cause the
house to be packed by the enemies of
the party, and the proceedings would
be disgraceful.
It was proposed to hold a union of
the BlA. and the Grey during the Con

FACE 'DISFIGURED
Painful, Disfiguring Skin Disease.
Every Known Remedy Fails.
Cured in One Month by
Cuticura Remedies.
Some time the last of last November I had some 4
skin diM:ase in my face. It grew very fast, and
about the last of December it became so painful
and was very disenguring, and I had tried everything
that I knew, but all to no effect. My face grew .
worse Instead of better. After trying every
known remedy I ordered a box of CUTIcuitA
RtEMEDIEs from you, and began to use it, and In
one month my face was well and as smooth as ever.
I have usedit for old sores and findit to begood in
all cases I have used It, and would not be without
it. I do not think the CTi-cuRA can be recoin..
rnended too highly. CUTncunAt is good for every
thing I ever knew it used for. It is good for all It
Is recommended for.

Another Bad Face
I have used the CUTICURA RE3fEDIEs with great
success for acne. My face was so bad that I was
ashamied to go on the street. Everybody had a cure,
buit none of them were any good. I tried several
dloctors, they gave me m.edicine, it did me no good.
A.- a last resort I tried CUTICURA REMEDIES with
great success. W. M. CLARK,
