“He Heeds no Vindication.”
Editor Darlington New :
Having been pitched into, so
foroeably by somebody, I beg space
enough to “scribble” a little more.
I do not ask any one to worship
Mr. Tillman, for 1 don’t propose to
do that myself; but I did ask some
one to say something In bis behalf.
As to his mandates being carried
oat in the increase of onr taxes, and
to the increase of the privilege tax
on goano and the establishment of
an agricaltnral college I shall have
nothing tosay; Mr.Tillman explains
bis plans himself and he needs no
vindication by any one. I am aware
of the fact that we have had a ma
jority of farmers in the Legislatnre,
and some of them good and grand
men too, who, no donbt, would like
to do justice to nil men. And I am
also frilly aware of the fact that
there Is an infernal lobby that con
trols onr State as well as the na
tional affairs, and that this body is
composed of speeuiating merchants
and lawyers, or their agents, who
work for their individual interest;
hence not much good oomes to the
farmer. Now can’t we have a Leg-
Mature that can manage its own
business, withont the supervision of
slobby t
I know that Mr. Cannon U a gal
lant mao and did noble aorvfoe in
the last War, and also did s great
deal in 76 for onr eoonty, sad de
serves th* mspeet of os all, aadl
am sare we all think s grant deal of
him- I don’t blams Mm for no« lik
ing to be oalfod a“Pfaaicab.” lam
very A»rry the eepfit Mm for it

we hinted at 1 would say, however,
that Mr. Tillman uid noble service
in the trying times of ’Td. He led
the Democrats in Edgefield, and be
too deserves credit for his labor '
As for my friend, the “X Roads
Reporter,” I hardly know wbat to
say, only that my head is not “sore”
and never has been. I would not
have even the office that did bim so
much good, and I hare no friend
who wonld have an office at all that
1 know of. I will say to my friend
that if he will ride an ox next time
instead of a “railback-horse,” he
may get along better and get an
office wcrth $2.50.
Mr. Reporter says he don’t see
why the farmerssbonldbe so alarm
ed, and that he can’t see any par
ticular grievance of tbe farmer
Poor fellow 1 He must be cros-eyed
or near sighted. There are griev
ances, and if my friend will open
his eyes better and look aronnd he
can see them
Mr. Editor, I mnstsay that I have
no political bricks to throw at any
one; I don’t want to get into a con
troversy with any one, bat I would
like to know why things are as they
are I Something mast be wrong.
Ifl have accused tbe wrong men,
then where does the trouble come

farms mortgaged, and tbe laboring
farmers especially, are every year
growing poorer and poorer. Why

is not the mifh' tfiTTlfie 'princpp?" ful, and'it was only required to im
agine the fair speaker to have been
one of those angels beraelf in order
to extract the lottieat kind of en
thusiastic p&thca irom the theme.
“Tbe Maniac,” by Fannie Kahn,
in its way, was truly extraordinary.
She wonld not, as an actnal maniac
have done greater credit to tbe
character, it she did not make
several yonng fellows dream wierd
dreams that night, no blame was to
be attached to her. She will need
to perform next some more dove-
like part to destroy the impression
she made and show that she can be
gentle as well as a mania
It is plain that tbe Timmousville
High School has lost nothing by
placing itself again before tbe pub
lic in these commencement exer
cises. Every one present must have
been favorably struct with its cur
rent standing. Where snch com
plete order and drill as was exhib
ited^ are found, a master band most
be at tbe wheel of guidance. Prof.
Ghas. A. Smith and assistant, Mrs.
E. B Divver. may will be proud
of tbeir work. No two individuals
in this community have accomplish
ed so much for Timmousville in tbe
name of true progress, as they
have.
After a two montb’H vacation an
other session will open, which may,
we are sure, address itself with re
newed confidence to the best pa
tronage of onr people. E. G. L.

The Timmousville High School.
Editor Darlingion Newt:
The Timmousville High School
celebrated tbe third anniversary of
its existenoe, last Thursday night,
at Trailer’s Hall.
Tbe occasion brought together
about five hundred people, who were
disposed, according to the popular
plan, as comfortably as possible on
about four hundred seats, affordin
a large privilege to stand up an
form tbe ornamental raised back
ground, which is a common feature
of packed auditoriums. Tbe weath
er was pleasant and favorable
enough under tbe fair dome of na
ture’s ball, but as to tbe ball chosen
for the exercises it presented a
strict neutrality, and the audienee
were left to manafactare their own
atmosphere, raise their own trade-
winds, and perspire exclusively in
their own behalf. Tbe patience and
persistence displayed daring the
two and one-half honrs of exhibi
tion went perhaps farther than any
other testimonial coaid to show
how well tbe affair was appreciated.
And it may truly be said to have
formed one unbroken panorama of
merit from beginning to end, reflect
ing tbe band of the accomplished
school tactician throughout.
Tbe stage was embowered with
evergreens in simple, tasty designs,
and set with living flowers that
peeped from perfect marvels of silk,
satin and lace. With the assist
ance of a Weaver organ, this bloom
ing picture became, at proper inter
vals, a volume of harmony and song
that spent its vibrations upon the
great public heart with tne most
cheering effects.
Tbe opening gun, considering
how small a gum it really was, went
off like a whole battery, and carried
tbe place by storm. It was tbe
speech of Tracy Morris. Yiolola
Powers, Linie Col, ins, Georgie
Trailer, Essie Witoover, Charlie
Sansbnry, Lee Kahn, Lauie Tim
mons and W. Sansbnry, all mem
bers of the gmall corps, followed, in
speech and dialogue, and cut their
little notches along the pillar ol
scholastic fame.
David Witcover, Ethel Morris,
Ellen Traxler and Willard Rags
dale, people who have reached the
wiser, soberer years of childhood’s
estate—ah, who will perhaps carl
tbeir precocious lips at even this
imputation of youth—next took
tarns at oratory and did remarka
bly well.
Tbe plays, “Friends without
knowing it,” by Lonnie Lewis, Kobt.
Coker, Edgar Morris and Olande
Lockhart, and “Fatal Brawl,” by
Duncan McKenzie, Willie Sykes,
Willie Keith, David Witcover and
Eugene Vaughan were carried out
in a straight forward, unhesitating
style that was very pleasing.
“Little Snow White,” a piece in
which nearly the whole yonnger
portion of the school was engaged,
was quite interesting and display
ed talent as well as perfect educa
tion in detail.
Roxie Lewis, with “Death makes
all men brotbers;” Bennie Rollins
with “A oenteunial oration;” H. W.
Carter with “A temperance lecture;”
Lena Timmons with “Tbe minstrel’s
curse;” Edgar Morris with “Tbe
Superiority of tbe AngloSaxon
face;” and Lena Witoover with
“The incorruptible patriot”—all
distinguished themselves and prov
ed to everybody’s satisfaction that
the tntnre of onr country is qnite
promising.
“Mrs. Willis’ Will” brought ont
the virtnes of Jauie Coker, Anna
Severance, Mamie Traxler, Ellen
Divver and Lizzie Ragsdale. The
parts were acted in a moot enter-
tainining and amnsing style that
made wave after wave of pleasure
roll over the sea of facet that filled
the hall.
There are fonr more deliveries to
speak of. Of these, “Tbe last hymn”
by Mamie Traxler, was rendered
beaotifnlly and left no room for im
provement in the oonoeptkm of the
“Kentucky Belle” by Ellen Div*
ver, came so sweetly and was so
realistic, it swept the hearts of tbe
andienee as gentle fingers sweep
the lyre and created an association
of the speaker with her subject,
which will, with many, remain long
unbroken.
“Angels of Boom Vista,” by LU
linn Morris, was exquisitely grace-
('ommencement day at the South Caro
lina College.
(From the New* nn i Courier.)
Columbia, June 23.—The faces
of the great men of the South Caro
lina College looked down becificent-
ly to-day from the ornate gilding
of the ancient frames which held
tbeir portraits to the chapel walls,
and tbeir kindly gaze was warran
ted, for the old College today
reached the summit of its post-
bellum career. It graduated two
masters of arts, sixteen bachelors
of arts, eight bachelors of laws and
nine certificate men of tbe shorter
courses of agriculture, medicine
and pharmacy and teaching.
The chapel was filled with a
brilliant assemblage, tbe ladles, of
course, in their fair summer cos-
tomes, occupying much space and
evolving much enthusiasm. The
front of tbe rostrum was embower
ed in evergreens, flowers and gras
ses. Tbe lecterns of the Ciario
sopbic and Enphradian societies
were covered with flowers, as was
also the central desk. Against the
wall, at tbe back of the rostrum,
large letters of evergreens formed
the words “Class ’86.”
President McBryde and tbe fac
ulty of tbe College, tbe board of
trnstees ot the University, Govern
or Thompson, Chief Justice, Simp
son, Mayor Rbstt. the Rev. C. A
Stakely, Col A. 0. Haskell, Ex-
Attorney General Youmaus and
Col. D. P. Dnuoau were among
those who occupied seats on the
stand. The orator of the day,
President Battle, of the Univer
sity of North Carolina, of course
held a conspicuous position.
On the platform at tbe South
Carolina College commencement to
day sat Oapt. William Blanding, a
brother of Ool. J. D. Blanding, of
Sumter, one of the trustees. He
graduated trom the College in 1835,
dividing tbe first honors of bis class
with Maxey Gregg, and server! two
years as a tutor. In tbe Mexican
war he held tbe rank of captain.
Moving to California in 1866, he
became United States district at
torney under Buchanan. Since
that time he has been a prominent
member of the Bar of California,
enjoying a large practice. He came
to South Carolina on a visit to his
brother, and stopped in Columbia
to attend tbe commencement of tbe
institution whence be graduated
fifty-one years ago.
After a charming air from tbe
band, tbe Rev. Dr. Stakely, ot tbe
Citadel Square Baptist Church of
Charleston, offered an eloquent
opening prayer. President Me
Bryde read the announcement of
honors for tbe session of 1885-86,
published in The Newt and Courier
this morning.
On aooonnt of tbe large number
of graduates only a few eonid find
places on the programme.
Mr. William Pringle Frost, of
Charleston, read a strong and
thoightfol essay on “State Ednoa
tion.” v
“Man’s place in natnre” was the
title of the oration of Mr. Hamilton
Andrew Hymes, of Darlington,
who spoke with vigor and tiueucy
Mr. David Rodgerson Mclver, of
Gbarleston, had progressed far in
bis excellent essay on “Distinctive
criticism,” when be was forced by
indisposition to suspend. Wbat
was heard of it, however, proved
that it was one of the best articles
of the day After music by tbe
band Mr. Victor Rice Pringle, of
Sam ter, made an acceptable oration
on “True and false ambition.” Mr.
Edwin Gustavos Qaattlebaum, cf
Edgefield, spoke welt on “Tbe
effects of the Norman oonqueet.”
“The Confederate Constitution” was
the sotgect of tbe essay of Mr WU
liana tynry Thomas, of Charleston,
which showed unnsnal political
research and mnoh ability. There
was now another bo rat of music.
The essay on “Samnel Johnson
and his age,” by Mr. Benj. Frank
lin Williamson, Jr., of Darlington,
was vary good indeed.
“Arotioexploration” was the text
of the gration ot Mr. Charles Coker
Wilson, of Darlington, and he
heightened the interest in this ever-
interesting theme.
Mr. John Joseph McMahan, of
Fairfield, already loaded with
honors, achieved a new success in
bis oration, “Progress—towards
what I s It waa perhaps tbe best
of the day, very thonghtfol, origi
nal and w»U delivered.
'More ■nsfe followed, and then
the presentation of certificates and
diplomas by President McBryde,

In presenting tbe certificates
President McBryde said to the
class that they thoroughly deserved
them. Tbeir work bad been well
done and tbeir eondnet had been
most exemplary. Tbe president
and faculty sent them borne in tbe
full expectation of soon bearing
good reports of tbe certificate men
of 1886.
When be delivered the diplomas
to tbe graduates tbe president made
them a graceful little speech, in
which he said that because of their
loyal devotion to duty throughout
tbeir coarse it was not snrprising
that the faculty viewed tbeir for
tunes with solieitade and their de
parture with regret. Tbe young
gentlemen of the law class, enter
ing it at its ineaption, had by their
bearing added greatly to itadis-
tinction. His heart went oot with
all tbe graduates. After pointing
ont the difficulties in their path he
said:
“Let tbe talents God has given
yon be wisely used. The respousi
bility which rests opon von cannot
be escaped. Let me urge yon to
do whatever yonr bands find to do
with all yonr’ might, improving
diligently every force of mind and
body. The diplomas yon bold at
test yonr present industry and eelf-
denial, and are iarnest pledges ot
yonr fintnre. In the name of yonr
friends of the faenlty, I pray that a
kind power may ever attend and
prosper yen. Farewell.”
After a recess of fifteen minntes
tbe exercises were resumed before
an andienee larger than ever. Presi
dent McBryde introduced as the
orator of tbe day the Hon Kemp P.
Battle, LL. president of tbe
University ot North Carolina. Presi
dent Battle is an elderly gentleman
of pleasant face. He looks like a
North Carolinian and talks like one.
There could be no doubt about bis
citizenship in the Old North State
after bearing him speak for five
minntea, lx ie said that he some
time ago abandoned the classical
style of address as less effective
than that simple, homely method
ha used to-day, and it is certain
that the novelty was very grateful
Tbe speaker’s voice waa strong, bin
enunciation very clear and he made
his points well. His hnmorons sod
shrewd sayings stirred bis sndieace
constantly, and hearty applanse
and laughter punctuated the ad
dress many times. The faculty
and trnstees w e r • eotbusiastie
about it. President Battle spoke
for an hour. The benediction waa
pronounced by Dr. Stakely, and at
2.20 P.M. the session of 1866 was
formally eoneloded.
By an oversight tbe oame of
Daniel Robert Towers, A. B., of
Anderson, a post-graduate student,
waa not published in the honor list
as furnished to The Newt and Cour
ier. He graduated with distinetion
at tbe South Carolina College com
mencement.
