ELBERT H. AUL" 1 proprietors. wx. P. HOUSEAL.' ITR EIBERT H. AULL. EDITo There has been nothing done by Mr. Irby and his committee that has the semblance of fairness. Since the Sep tember Convention it seems to us that thir every effort has been to widen the breach that exists between the white people and to keep up the bad feeling. The address issued by him and his sub-committee was an insult to the conservatives who have been trying to hold on to the organized Democracy and showed no apprecia tion of their efforts to keep our people together. Then his effort to try to force the people to vote for a constitu tional convention whether they want oed* ot vas an outrageous act. We W -.-reel satisfied thaTil this has been cal culated to make and has made votes for Dr. Pope and it has given him strength that he would not otherwise have had. A Darlington jury-bas acquitted 'Lc Lendon, the constable, who precipi tated the trouble at Darlington, which resulted in the death of two citizens and one constable, while a Spartan burg jurfjconvicts Jack Blad)u who killed a negro who was trying to make his escape. From the evidence that we have seen, McLendon was respon sible for all the trouble at Darlington and killed one of the citizens. We do not see bow a verdict of acquittal was reached, but so it is. The Solicitor has nol prossed the case against the other c,)nstables at Darlington. NPxt Tuesday is the day for the election. Everything so far seems ver uet Last Saturday there was a small rally at idgeway, in Fair field County and speeches were made by Gov. Tillman and John G'ry Evans. They were both bitter and partizan and prejudiced. These speeches were not calculated to win any votes. The com mittee on arrangements refused to per mit Dr. Pope a seat on the platform and also refused to let him speak at that place and time. Of course he found another place and an audience who would listen to him, and he had h-is sty. He gave some of the inside his tory of the reform movement that is interesting. The speeches of Gov. Till man and Mr. Gary Evans are not cal culated to arouse any interest on the part of the conservatives who would vote for Evans but who do not want a constitutional convention. The agony will soon be over and we trust there will be peace and that pros perity will come. The Editor of The Heraldand News was in a small village, not a thousand miles from Newberry, on a Saturday afternoon not long ago. It is a small village of only a couple hundred peo ple. In this village was located a State Dispensary. As we walked up and down through this village and observed e drinking and the drunkenness, we could not help wishing some of the strong advocates of the dispensary could be present and see the beneficial effects of the dispensary as a prohibi tion and temperance measure. Not much temperance or soberness thore. The Herald and News is glad to Dote that Coi. V. E. McBee has been ap - pointed to a good position with the Sea (Toa&Air Line. He is a railroad man of experience and ability. He has brains and common sense and knows how to apply them to the practical af fairs of the railroad. He will make his heat)quarters in Atlanta. The Herald and News congratulates the Seaboard Air Line on securing his services. Do not forget to put in your vote against the constitutional convention. There will~be plenty of tickets on hand. -Taxes are high enough already without piling up a useless expense of $100,000 for the holding of a convention. Vote no and be sure that you vote. We. would invite those of our Till - manite friends who have had so much to say about independents,to the state ment from Beaufort. They had a pri mary in that county, and the conserv atives won. Another ticket, composed of defeated Tillmanites and negro Re publicans, will be candidates for elec tion in the general election next Tues day. It makes the greatest difference in the world whose ox is gored. The State publisbed a rumor yester day, on what it claimed was good au _thority, that Gov. Tillmani would un dertake to use force on next Tuesday to have the election go- his way, and that he had instructed county chairmen to call on constables and sheritis if neces -sary to enforce his purpose in carryimg - the election. The Herald and News asked Chairman Capers if he had re received any instructions to that effect and be did not understand what we were talking about, so he said. He does not read The State and therefore had not seen the report. He saye he knows of no such instructions. Well, really, The Herald and News does not believe there is any truth in the rumor. We do not beiieve that Governor Tililman will undertake any such game as thbat. It would not w ork, and he has too much sense to try any such plan.________ Postmaster Counts at Peak, S. C., is in trouble. He has been arrested and is charged not only in being short in his accounts, but also with having forged a name to his bond. He will likely be sent up higher. Attoruew General Olney has deci de.d that the State cannot seize whiskey in bonded warehouses. The opinion does not;meet the approval of Governor Tillman.________ Bia Cotton Fire in Clinton. CoUMmIA, October -79.-The report has been received here through the railroad eflice that there has been a seiious cotton fire in Clinton on the line of the Columbia, Newberry and Laurens Road. It is stated that the fire sta'rted in a ware house in which .there were from 400O to 500 bales of cot tonl, and when the last reprt was re cived the roof bad fallen in and ibere was no hope of saving any of the cot -ton. On account of thbere 1-emg no adequate water supply for steamer none was sent there from Columbia. Snecial to News and Courier. TILLMAN Is ALARMED. The Governor -Makes a Desperate Effort to Uetrieve the Waning Fortunes of the Constitutional Convention lie AP peals to the I.ace Feeling, and Keeps In - the Background Every Important Question with which the ConAtl tutional Convention haS to leal. LSpecial to News and Courier.] Coc(LU.MIA, October 29.-After Gov ernor Tillman had explained the situ ation in Beaufort, as seen by him, be took an intermission, and after awhile asked to give his views on the Consti tutioual Convention. He was careful in what he had to say and every now and then would stop to think it over. Occasionally he would make a side re wark.MThe interview is of importance and distinctly shows that the Reform ers are not absolutely certain of their Convention. He said: "While I am talking on politics and the status in that Congressional dis trict I had just as well give those of our people, who care to know my views on other questions, a few words of warn ing on the dangers ahead of us. There is a crisis upon us, and the immediate future is fraught with more good or ill than any period in our history since 1861. The dark wave of corruption, misgovernment and well-nigh anarchy, which engulphed our State during the days of Radical dominion, failed to overshelm and destroy our civiliza tiou because of the feeling of race unity; blood was thicker than water, and w bite men 'were ever ready to respond to the call of white supremacy. When the tocsin was sounded in 1876 the white men of the State responded as one man, and our people moved as a solid phalanx to recover their !o;t lib erties and restore decency and order in the conduct of our affairs. "The unfortunate divisions which have arisen among us, and I will not now discuss the question as to where the blame lies, have reached the point for a second time where white men of I acknowledged integrity and character and decent reputatitn are willing to use the negro in our politics in the hope of regaining a lost ascendency. I have no uneasiness as to the result of the election this year. There is no possibility of any great inroad being made on the Democratic party as now organized. Evans will be elected by an overwhelming vote and the com plexion of the legislature will little if any change from the status fixed by the primary of August 2S. "But the issue which vitally con cerns the future of the State and its people, the calling of a Constitutional Convention, is in doubt. A 11 the ele ments opposed to Reform in the State, I every newspaper controlled by the so I called Conservatives and several which have bitberto sided with the Reform ers are opposing the Convention with every argument possible. When I consider the fact that this opposition may defeat the calling of a convention I shudder to think what will inevita bly follow in the next political cam paign. IF THIS WERE ONLY TRUE. "Our people will come together if the Convention is c4lled, and patriotism and character without regard to faction will govern in the selection of- those who will make a new Constitution. But if the Convention is not called then we will be- divided into two hostile 'amps of white men in the next cam paign, struggling to see which can get the most negro votes. This is Inevit able as that thbe sun will rise to-morrow. What the result will be upon the future progress of the State and its business interests must be apparent to every thinking man. Some men affect to be leve that the negro, as a factor in our politics, would produce no untoward results, nor be dangerous to the public welfare. Others say that the 'best" white people, as they term themselves, and the negroes in political combina tion would bring ahout a restoration of good government. TH IS IS TRUE. "But can ye touch pitch and not be defiled? Can the 100,000 white men in South Caioliua energize and marshal the 140,000 negro veters in the State and lead them to the polls, con tending for the mastery, without de struction of all of our business interests and a paralysis of every industr3? Can this vast horde of ignorant and bebased, voters participate in governinent~ with out corrupting and debaurbing the publie service? Is it not clear- that while in the first fight, and even poesi bly ina the s ond, decent and honest men may be elected to office, that the inevitable trend of politics will be for those who are most willing to go to the level of the negro to control them? Will the negroes not demand and en force a division of the offices as a re cognition of their service? Can we hope that character end intelligence will continue to control when such contin gencies arise, as they inevitably will arise? WVill not tihe needy and greedy fiice-seekers, the corrupt, thbe low, the base, among the whites finally use the negro votes to virtually confiscate pro perty and renew under the form of law Jo n J. Patterson's five more years of food st ealing?" BECA USE HE MIIG HT JUIP FRoM[T HE FIIYING PAN INTO THE FIRE. "How then can any patriotic, sensi ble man, who loves his State and race, hesitate as to how he shall vote on thbis Convention uestion? I confess it puzzles :ne to account for the insane oipposition whbich has arisen in so many quarters. In some counties, where the w hites are in the majority, which have, therefore, never undergone, except in a modified degree, the degradation and miseries of the reconstruction period, demagogical pleas are used to frighten the poor whites. If we had a white majority in the State this burning question of negro supremacy, or quasi supremacy, need not cause so mueb alarm. BUT IT IS THE WHITE MIEN IN THE BLACK COUNTIES WHO OPPOSE THE COVENTION M!OST. "But those whbite men in the white counties, who are opposing a Constitu tional Convention and say there is no danger, are like the ostrich which hides its head in the saind and con siders itself out of h'armn's way. They bave never suffered w hat tiheir brethren in the lower part of the State bave en dured and they cannot therefore con Iceive the terrible results that will follow a division of the whites strug lig~ to. cottrol the negro vote and ma.kng hima the arbier of our politics. If a tonstitutional Convention is not (-alled when the twentieth century shall dawn on tbis country there will* be forty or fifty negro repres5eLntatives in the South Cairoliina Legislature and in most counties half, wtile in many countes all of the county offices will be filled by negroes." A PERTINENTQUESTI')N. 'But, Governor, bow is thbe Constitu tion to prevent all this?" I asked him. "We have been trying to get a Con stitutional Convention ever since the a ites regained possession of the State Government. The two thirds of the House necessary to call one have voted that way time and again, but it wvas defeated in the Senate, and once, if I remember, when the Senate voted the necessary two-thirds the House was not ready. TJhe peoiple were not theni divided as they are now and there never was the danger that now exists. It the lack of unity among the whbite men which will produce these dire results, and the calling oif a coinventionl s the only thing which will obviate the danger. There is no doubt that the rE'istration lawv will either be upset by the Curts before thbe cam paign of 1896, or that the Legislature will be forced to provide for such changes as will again put all the negroes in a condi tion can deal with the suffrage questi3r iit a way to save the suffrage to everN white man worthy of a vote. while al the saie time reduciug the negre voters at least one half, possibly more.' "How?" That's the question . asked. Just about as Mr. Sligh did al Ridgeway. WHO IS GoING To TRI'ST TILLMAN? "That's my secret. Let the people of the State, the poor workingmen, who have been my supporters and 01 whose cause I have always been chain pion, trust me. Let them vote for the Convention. 'ihe time to discuss the method of reducirg negre nitijority is after the Convention has been called. The people can instruct the delegates to it when they appear before them asking to be elected not only on this but on every other question. If the plan then suggested does not meet their approval they can elect men pledged not to incorporate it in the new Con stitution." THE COST OF THE CONVENTION. "What is your idea of the cost of the Convention, Governor?" was asked him for the sake of the money-thinking voters. "I see no reason why it should cost more than a session of the General As sembly, which is about $40,000. In the first place it need not consist of more than 124 members, giving representa tion to counties according to popula tion. There would be no heavy expense for the the solicitors and a large num ber of clerks and the printing bills would be much lighter than for a ses sion of the Legislatu're. A great deal of the present Constitution ought to re main untouched and I see no reason why all the chances that are really essential cannot be framed and ratified in at most forty days." Governor Tillman had said that th Co. ven tion should be non.partisan, so I asked bim whetber he thought Refor iners would vote for a Conservative au delegate to the Conv-ntion if called. GOOD ADVICE THAT WOULD NOT B FOLLOWED IF GIVEN. He replied: "I should think, and ] certainly wonld advise that the ques tion of which side in State politics a man stood on should have nothing tL do with the selection of delegates. The Constitution should not be a factional one, and the men of the very highest character,, purest lives, greatest wisdon and knowledge should be selected with. out regard to how they stood." l'he Governor had said enough, and with this said, "Good night." A. K. SOME INSIDE HISTORY. Extracts From Dr. Pope's Speech at Ridge way Saturday, October 27. The Herqld and News makes the fol lowing co Ictions from a sp. ech of Dr. Sampson Pope at Ridgeway last Satur day. Being scraps of history connected with the Reform movement wbieb have not heretofore been made publi( we desire to put them in permanent shape. We feel sure these bits will be of interest: A RING-JUST THINK OF IT. "In about the middle of December, 1893, 1 found for the first time that s Ring was forming in Columbia for the purpose of parceling out the offices, and thus going b-ick upon the origina principles of the Reform movemeut. TOLD THE RING LEADER. "I immediatelv addressed a letter t( Governor Tillmnan, told him that I had heard these things, that we had gone out of the other wing of the party to escape this very thing, as we thought. that we had given him everything that he wanted, and that we would not sub mit to Rings or Bossism--to which let ter I have never received a reply. Returning home from Columbia, after the session of the Legislature, early it: Januarj, I was invited to address the Alliance of Laurens County, and was invi ted to the home of Senator Irby.] would not violate the proprieties o: hospitality, but Mr. G3antt has alluded, without object ion from Col. Irby, and possibly with his consent, to what oc urred at Senator Irby's house. ALAS, THOU TOO CONFIDING SA31PSON "Going to Laurens and to Senatoi Irby's home, I was made to believe by him that the only way to overcome the 'State House Ring' was to fight for e late convention, putting it on the higt ground that by doing so, Messrs. W. D Evans; John Gary Evans, Ellerbe Tindal and myself, all of whom were candidates for Governor, could have time to go before the people, and could thus have an even chance for the office that this would prevent anything like a Ring. I arquieseed, believing that i1 would be not only fair to us, but would build up,the Reform movement by relieving it of the charge of a Ring. MORE HISTORY. "Col. Irby diet-ated to Mr. Tighe the resolutions which were to be introduced the next day in the meeting. I sug gested an earlier day for the conventioil thai Col. Irby selected. I did so to pre vent its interfering with the Democrati< primary eampaign. I possibly suggest ed one or two other alterations. T'be meeting was held. I addressed it, and afterwarls the resolutions were intro duced andl passed. Col. Irby stated tc me that he did not care which one 0: three of us the people selected. "JUJIPI.NG JUPITER!" "He seemed only opposed to Rings and Ring methods. I was, therefore greatiy sur prised, not a great whbile afterwards, to find that he was only gaiing time to form the biggest Ring that we have ever had in South Caro lina; that his cry of State House ring wa on!y' for the purpose of forming the IrbyTilmanJohngatryevans5 Ring. Not long afterwards r found that Col. Evans had gone to Washington to lay in his complaints. Soon afterwards, Governor Tillman who had favored Mr. Ellerbe and at early convention, went there also, and, strange to say, co~me back for Joht) Gary~Evans and a late convention. TH E CA RDS WERE PACKED). "After getting into the canvass, I found that the Reform primary was packed and that the voice of the people was to be stifled. MIORE HISTORY BUr NEW. "At Florence I called together Messrs. Ellerbe and Tindal for a con ference. 1 laid these matters before them and attempted to convince them that we stood no chance in the primary, packed as it was." - OTHERS WERE WEAK-K NEED. "I asked them to join me in coming out from that primary and go into the general primary and thus force Joht Gary Evans to do likewise. They re fused, and afterward at Columbia,J announced that I would be a candidate in the general primary and not in the ing primary." WHY MIE CUT LOOSE. "Finding, after I got in the genera primary that I could not get a ticket it the general primary except in threi ounties and- seeing that [ would be sacri ficed, the Reformers being so mucl afraid of the Ring, I announce< through the papers that I would not bi a candidate at the primary, and soom afterwards announced myself a candi date at thegeneral election. WAIR PAINT A LL ON NOW. "I am here to-day fighting your bat tIe against Rings and Bossism and fo: good government. I am standing om te original principles of the Reforni movement. 1 am consistent and have been consistent. Those who are op posed to me are not consistent for thea are trampling under foot the rights o the people and the principles of Re frm. They l'olster themselves up; t he3 are appealing to the prejudices and the passions of the people, talking aboul wbite supremacy, insinuatinug thai others are appealing to the negro, anc just here I must say t,hey are preachinj oneting anid practicing another. Il any one has appealed to the uegro it is they and not 1. S311THEREENRED PROMISES. "You were promised in 18W0 a reduc tion .tf taxes. Noow what are the facts? During the four years of Governor Richardson's administration upon a property valuation of about $150,000,00 or less your taxes averaged four and three-fourths mills. Under Governor Tillmis ad ninist ration for four years, with a property valuation of $168,000,000 your taxes have averaged four and three-fourths mills per year. Both are exclusive of the two mill tax. So that your taxes have not been reduced. "CoMPARISONS ARE ODIOUS." "Governor Tillman promised to save you $100,000 a year if elected. He has not doue it. "The dispensary was never a demand of the Reform movement. It has be come, in my judgment, a huge political maebine. THE REASON WHY. "You can very well see this when you know that a large number of men have been appointed constables all over the State, and each constable a friend and interested in the perpetuation of the present administration, and, as such, it is A MENACING DANGER to the rights and liberies of the people of South Carolina. It has been con ducted in such a way as to cause bad blood among our people, and I am sor ry to say it has been the cause of the shedding of the blood of our peop3e. Private residences have been searched withiout cause or provocation at the dead hour of night. Women and chil dren have been frigh'ened almost to death; the righIs and liberties of our citizexn have been interferel with. "The law should be wiped from the statute book, and the usurpation of power by the executive prevented. THAT TICKET "OVERSIGHT." "You are called upon to vote upon a constitutional convention, and yet the execetive com nittee of the Democratic party has refused to send out tickets whit- would enable yo to vote against it. I have had them printed through the kindness of friends and you will have the opportunity of voting against it. A PLAIN DUTY. "And it is your duty to vote against it, for it is proposed to formulate a con stitution; you know not what it is to contain. Possibly an educational qual ification to vote and to hold office, a $3 poll tax, and you know not what else. And yet it is not to be submitted to the people for ratification. A PARTING WORD "Now, my friends, the peace and harmony of our people have been de stroyed by evil and designing men for the purpose of perpetuating themselves in power. This is not only wrong but it is unchristian. Those you are taught to hate and despise are your own brothers, sons, fathers, neighbors and friends. SAYS IT'S MONSTROUS. "It is monstrous in the extreme, and you should put your feet down upon it. A movement that must be upheld by such will sooner or later end in infamy. In 1892 r was editing a daily journal in this State. Objections were raised by certain leaders to my editing ;t, be cause I was not bitter, because I did not abuse the opposition. AS TO GANTT. "I found it out and resigned the posi tiotn and one was brought in who for bit terness and vindictiveness has no equal in journalism in South Carolina. Ihave told you these things, because I believe it is my duty to do so, in order that you may see how evil and designing men are trying to use you to keep them in power. You have the opportunity to put an end to this, to bring about good feeling among your people, to have peace and prosperity in South Caroli na." Specimen Cases. e.
