THE THIRD PARTY.
What does the Third Party mean
Why was it organized and what is il
object? We fear that our people hac
not seriously considered this thinl
nor contemplated its results. A goo
deal is said about it, and there is n
wiping out the fact that it has prett
good foothold even in the Soath.
Some one may say it has for its o1
ject the enactment of certain measure
into law. That may be true in part.
The Third Party platform is the on
growth of the Alliance demands. A
- the demands of the Alliance are en
bodied in that platform. The All
anee was originally organized as not
partisan, but politics has graduall
erept. in until out of the Alliance he
giown this national party with
:presidential ticket in the field. I
-tv many States there are regular State o:
ganizations with full State tickets i
the field. Col. E: S. Keitt told t
some months ag& that there would t
full State tickets in every State in tx
Union. In several we have them a
ready.
The Herald and News has never bee
unfriendly to the Alliance as an o
ganiztion. We were glad to see tf
farmers organize for their own prote
tion and to build up their own ii
terests. But when out of this organ
zation comes a political party wil
secret and oath bound obligations
hich only a part of the citizens es
belong we cannot approve it.
As to the platform or demands v
wll not nov: direct our attention.
There is another ieature of tb
mo'ement-this People's or Thii
Party-to which we desire to direct a
teation and which to us is fraugl
with danger to our people. It is
feature, to us, unpleasant to conten
plate. We may be mistaken and hol
we are. What we have to say is sa
in no unkind spirit, but seeing it
we do we feel it our duty to speak
it.
One of the objects of the People
Party is to wipe out sectional lines at
to know no North, South, East <
West. That all sounds very well, bi
in making that effort and talking th,
way we opine that the object behir
4ll tiis is to break up the solid Soul
and divide the white people. Suppo
that is done what will be the resu
and where will we be? Have yc
ever thought of it in that light? It
abig sch'me and has been pretty we
manipulated thus far.
Another result of forming this Pe
ple's Party and wiping out section
les will be to instil in the minds
our children the idea that their fathe
Swho fought for their rights under tl
Confederate flag were traitors. Mi
that day never come, but that seems
Sbe the tendency. Examine the recoi
and words of the leaders in the Pe
ple's Party, and answer for yourself.
We hope we are mistaken, but th
certainly seems to us to be the te:
Before going after these strani
alliances and combinations and d
mands and measuresand issues and isr
F you had better take a cam, deliberat
common sense view of the situatic
adask ycurself in all soberness wh;
allthis means, where it is tending at
what it will result in.
. edo not know'how many folio1
ers this People's Party and its d
mands has in Newberry Count
and we only look at one side noi
but if there are any, we hope they w
A seriously consider this question in
its bearings before they go trottii
after it.
Managing Editor Bowden of tV
Cotton Plant is gaining some notorie
by his advocacy of the Third part
He says there will be a full elector
ticket put in the field in opposition
the Democratic electors.
.Well, t' may be done, but we 4
not see now any honorable man wi
voted in our Democratic primary con
now give his vote or influence to
Third party ticket. Mr. Bowden,,1
understand, did not Zvote in the p:
mary.
But where does he expect to g
30,000 votes from for his Third par
unless from some of those who parti4
pated in'the Democratic primary ? M
Bowden must have a very poor opini<
of those persons whom he expects
vote for the Third party. How ci
any man who has any recognition
what is right vote for the Third pari
after going into and participating
the Democratic primary ? We thir
Mr. Bowden is estimating without h
Uhost.
The Darlington Herald puts it tht
"The man who believes in the Oca
demands and calls himself a Democr
reminds us of the ass in the fable wI
put on the skin of a lion and tried
pass himself off as the king of beas
bub was discoveredA because he cou
7not hide his ears."
This is putting it rather strong. 3
doubt some persons honestly belie1
that the Ocala platform is good Dem
cratic doctrine, but it is certainly ai
tagonistic in several important fe
tures to Democratic doctrine and Den
ocratic princip1.es. And there is or
thing that we have been unable:
comprehend : how a man can stand og
and advocate the principles of tU
platform of one party and still clail
membership in another. We have ni
been able to see how it can be don
- but maybe we will find out by and b;
We shall wait and see.
Col. Tom Watson speaks of ti
Democratic platform adopted at Cl:
cago as "the Chicago humbug pla
form." He evidently does not co.
sider that it embodies the principles
the Peoples' party platform.
President Harrison has written h
9: letter of acceptance. It covers aboi
six columns in the State of Tuesde
, The News and Courier's annual
9 trade review of the city of Charleston
was published on Monday. It is a fine
piece of work.
The trade for the past year has been
considerably less than the previous
year, but the old city has not suffered
more than other places.throughout the
country. There has been general de
pression and Charleston has suffered
along with the rest, but she has as a
rule held her own.
The Herald and News wishes her
greater prosperity for the coming year
than she has heretofore experienced.
s
e The State Convention will meet en
' Wednesday, the 21st instant, at 12 M.
There will be no contest, we presume,
o for any office except Attorney-General.
Y There seems to be two candidates on
the Tillman side for :he place-Maj.
D. A. Townsend, of Union, the present
assistant Attorney-General, and Mr.
W. C. Benet, of Abbe.de.
The caucus is mighty and did pre
vail.
The Republicans seem to be waking
up. Judge S. W. Melton is spoken of
as a probable candidate for Governor.
There may be lively times ahead yet.
In the defeat of George Johnstone
and J. J. Hemphill, two of the ablest
s representatives South Carolina has had
in Congress in a long time, have been
left at home.
Their opponents made their fight on
their adherence to Tillman in State
politics. The coat tail was strong and
pulled them through.
Governor Tillman: You can count on
The Herald and News to help you fight
Third partyism and Republicanism.
All we ask is that you stand shoulder
to shoulder with us.
Col. Tom Watson evidently considers
re the defeat of Johnstone and Hemphill
a People's party victory. Here is what
he says in the People's Party Paper in
regard to the election:
"The fact that the Farmers' move
it ment carried five districts in South
a Carolina for Congressmen, in three of
i- which they were beaten two years ago,
> should teach the fellows who regard
the Alliance as a temporary crase, a
d lesson. It is a revolution, and will
Ls never move backwards. Hemphill
Df and Johnstone, who were strong
enough at the last election to defy the
farmers, are now political ghosts."
d The second primary will beheld next
" Tuesday. The same managers will act
and the same rules will be of force.
d The contract for the public printing
h has been awarded to Mr. Charles A.
Calvo, Jr., the proprietor of the Regis
u ter.
The race for Congress, in the Second
Distriet, will have to be run over by
Geo. D. Tillman and W. J. Talbert
The Herald and News would be glad
to see Mr. Tillman returned to Con
Sgress, but it is none of our battle and
we shall not be disappointed in any
event.
Labor Day was celebrated in Cum
on Monday and several good speeches
were delivered. Mr. J. Wilson Gibbes

- The election over, every body should
be "happy and serene." The Herald
and News has no regrets for the course
It pursued. We have spoken thosi
Sthings we thought to be true and right,
treating every one fairly and justly.
The people have spoken and we abidi
their verdict, and shall support the
nominees of the Democracy. We dc
ie not want to see any Third party i
57 South Carolina or any bolting from the
Y verdict of the people. We need to gc

comes to him who labors for the righi
1and waits. All things will be well yet

Id and we hope without opposition. The

r kindest of feelings for those who did no:

and we trust that no orie cherishes Ill

n Mr. T. Larry Gauntt, editor of the
o0 Register, has been presented with a
Lgold-headed cane for his work in the
of interest of the Tillmanites. And Geo.

I conceived to be right, permit me to
nominate myself as a standing candi

The gentleman who was so fortunate
as to receive the nomination at your

me would be niggardly; more, prophe

former, and have no disposition to
stake my reputation on the latter. I
shall endeavor so to act, at all times,
as to conduce to the advancementof all
of the educational interests of my coun

ber that unless the shaft of future ex
pectations, which we are rearing for
posterity, be firmly planted upon the
solid granite foundation of- "educa
tion," we shall live to witness its fall
in the dust of humiliation. On the one
hand we have education, power, inde
pendence, prosperity; on the other ig
norance, weakness, subserviency, pov

on that," and choose between them.
God grant that your choice be guided

The Majority for Prohibition.
[Special to News and Courier.]
COLUMBIA, September 4.-The pro
hibition executive committee hs made
strenuous efforts to secure full returns
from the State en the prohibition ques
tion. The figures they have received
show that the prohibitionists have a
majority of from 10,000 to 18,600 in the
State. The reports from twenty-five
counties indicate that the prohibition
ists have 7,119 majority.
The executive committee gave out
some interesting figures. Besides show
ing the exact prohibition and anti-pro
hibition vote they give the plain fig
ures, showing the total vote on the
State ticket and in the prohibition
boxes. In twenty-three counties it is
shown that there were about 20,000
voters who took part in the general
election who declined to vote in the
prohibition boxes. The figure as sup
