HILL ANO THE PRESIDENCY.
Last week Senator David B.
Hill, of wew York, made a trip
through the South. He made a
number of speeches, all of which
were capital, advocating strong
Democratic doctrines. Every
where he received a warm wel
come and his presence excited
considerable enthusiasm. The
trip was undoubtedly made in
the interest of his candidacy for
the Presidency, but we believe
he is as far from receiving the
nomination as ever. His warm
reception is no index to his pop
ularity in the South. Any
Democrat of equal prominence
would have received like atten
tion.
A reaction seems to have al
ready set in throughout the
country against him and the
action of his snap convention in
New York. The anti-Hill re
volt in that State is assuming
large proportions. Not only in
its numbers but in thecharacter
of the men leading it, the move
ment finds its influence and
weight. The anti-Hill State
convention, which meets in
Syracuse in May, will represent
between 200,000 and 300,000
Democratic voters of that State
and the delegation that the con
vention will send to the Nation
al Convention will impress upon
the latter body the fact that
Hill is not the choice of the
rank and file of the Democracy
of New York and that his snap
convention was unfair and un
wise.
Hill never was a favorite
among the Democrats of the
West and his schemes to force
himself upon the party have
tended to increase their dislike
for him. Hill “booms’' that
have been attempted in the
West and Northwest have fail
ed completely. In the South
his populaiity is at a minimum
and in New England, to use a
slang phrase, he is “nowhere”.
Every day it becomes more
and more apparent that Cleve
land is the choice of the people.
He is not held in high favor by
the politicians, but his very
honesty has made him the
people’s candidate. The fac
tional fight in New York may
prevent his nomination. It may
cause the people to choose some
one else merely for the sake of
policy. One thing is certain,
however, Hill in his attempt to
sidetrack Cleveland has not in
creased his own popularity, but
has made himself distasteful to
a large majority of Democrats.
If Cleveland is not nominated a
Western man will win the prize.
—
TO DAY’S CONVENTION.
The anti-Tillman State Con
vention meets in Columbia to
day and we earnestly trust that
the results of its deliberations
will redound to the good of the
State, restore the Democratic
party to its former harmonious
condition and once again unite
the white people of South Caro
lina, “a people that should be
united, not divided.” Nearly
every County in the State will
be represented at the Convec
tion by a full delegation. The
delegates are for the most part
men of recognized ability,whose
faithful services to South Caro
lina in the past will ensure their
devotion to her interests in the
present crisis. They are con
servative and will do nothing
radical. They love the State
and her people and their actions
will be guided by the desire to
restore harmony, peace and pros
perity to our much beloved land.
It is from the characters of the
leading spirits of the Convention
and the laudable purposes for
which they are called together,
that we derive our hope that the
meeting to-day will be produc
tive of good.
The mass meeting for Darling
ton county held on Monday is a
source of gratification to those
who approve of the movement.
It is true that the meeting was
not large, but it was larger than
even the most sanguine had
hoped for. The notice given for
the meeting was very short and
a larger attendance was not ex-
p e c t e d. A majority of those
present were farmers and this in
itself has a pleasing significance.
Deterra .nation characterized the
action of the citizens in attend
ance. They are bent upon do-
ing everything honorable in
their power to restore good gov
ernment to South Carolina.
We await anxiously the out-
come of to-day’s Convention,
trusting tha' no stone will be
left unturned to bring to us the
happiness of a people again uni
ted.

South Carolina.
