"WHAT WILL HE DO WITH IT ?"
While the Conservatives are
naturally pleased when the
Tillunanites quarrel among
themselves, the Farley-Irby-
Tillman controversy has an ele
ment in it that we cannjt but
regret. It is mortifying to have
it published broadcast that a
United States Senator from
South Carolina is capable of the
despicable conduct of which it
has been shown that Senator Irby
has been guilty. We have nev
er had much faith in the junior
Senator and we are not surpris
ed at what the exposure has
brought forth, but we regret
that the whole world should
know that the once proud State
of South Carolina has elevated
such a man to the highest posi
tion within her gift.
It will be remembered that
the casua belli was & letter writ
ten to the Augusta Chronicle
some months ago, in which it
was alleged that several promi
nent Tillman ites, General Far
ley among them, had deserted
their- party and had made a
trade with the Conservatives.
General Farley charged Senator
Irby with being the author of
the letter and I by denied it,
putting the authorship upon
Captain J. H. Tillman. Now
the latter comes in and corrob
orates Farley, stating positively
that Irby wrote the article.
General Farley’s denunciation
of Senator Irby is scathing. He
calls him a liar, a scoundrel, a
braggart and, in fact, so many
bad names that it would take
up too much space to enumerate
them. Captain Tillman says
Irby has told falsehoods and, to
the disinterested mind, he very
satisfactorily proves it. He
charges Irby with using his nom
de plume in the article mention
ed and in several others sent
by him (Irby) to the Chronicle.
Now, this is very close kin to
forgery. In one of these letters
Irby lauds himself to the skies
The Senator has decidedly the
worst of the controversy, but
Captain Tillman cannot escape
public censure. He should have
exposed Irby ere this. Why
did he not do it ? He was hunt
ing a federal office at the time
and Irby is United States Sena
tor; it appears as if he thought
silence would better his
chances.
The junior Senator’s course,
during his whole life, has re
minded us of the boy who goes
around with a chip on his shoul
der, daring someone to knock it
off. Farley and Tillman have
knocked the chip off; now, what
will Irby do about it ? Is he the
braggart that Farley says he is ?
Recently Irby slapped Congress
man Shell’s faco for less cause,
but Shell is a weak man physi
cally and has not a reputation
for fighting, while both Farley
and Tillman seem ready to meet
Irby. We do not counsel fight
ing, nor do we wish for blood
shed, but we are curious to
to know what Irby will do. Sen
ator, the chip has been knocked
off your shoulder *
THE KEITT RESOLUTIONS.
The State Alliance at its meet
ing in Walhalla last week
adopted resolutions requiring
candidates to put loyalty to Al
liance demands above loyalty
to party caucus. The Alliance
demands are nearly, if not, iden
tical with the Third party plat
form, and the resolutions can,
therefore, mean but one thing,
that the Third party is to be put
above the Democratic party.
With this view of the matter,
the fact that the resolutipns
were introduced by a prominent
Third partyite, J. L. Keitt, of
Newberry, is very significant.
If the leaders of the Alli
ance intend to deliver the order
over to the Third party, it
would be moi-e manly for them
their course openly
me to masquerade

he had been murdered before
the train ran over him.
On Tuesday night of last week
George Creyton, colored, set
fire to the barn of T. J. Hen
drix in Spartanburg. While the
family were fighting the fire
Creyton stole $200 from the
house. The rascal was subse
quently caught.
W. I. Edgerworth, one of Till

wagon near Cheraw on Friday
and searched it looking for
whiskey. He did not find any

A white man, named J. P.

ment had caused him to take
his own life. He was once a
wealthy man.
Congressman Shell says, in
regard to the recent fight be
tween himself and Senator Irby,
that the latter did draw a knife
on him. This Irby denies. He
says that it is his custom to
carry a one-bladed knife open
in his hand and that such was
the case at the time of the fight,
but that he did not draw u to
cut Shell.

A Remarkable Picture of the Mountain*
of Switerland.
Many curious and interesting
sights are seen on the Midway
Plaisance, this street of all na
tions, the Mecca of all visitors to
the Great World’s Fair, at
Chicago; but among all its
exhibits the “Panorama of the
Swiss Alps” is doubtless the
most highly artistic. To those
whose good fortune it has been
to go “abroad,” this panorama
awakens old memories, and to
the many who have been less
fortunate this really grand
painting is a revelatian. It is a
rfect representation of the
amed Bernese Oberland, as it
would appear in all the immen
sity of reality to a sight-seer in
the midst of the Alps. The
illusion is made perfect by the
truthfulness of local color and
by the vigorous and sincere
t ainting of such artists as
^urnand, Baud-Bovy and
Furet. This superb canvas was
painted in Pans, France, for
the express purpose of exhibi
tion at the World’s Fair, and has
received the well-deserved
encomiums of all the leading
French and American artists.
