The failure of the “reform” factions to get together has giv en rise within the last week to the rumor that Governor Till man will run for a third term. It seems impossible te reconcile the claims of the numerous as pirants for gubernatorial hon ors, and the bad feeling that has consequently arisen among the candidates and their parti sans is giving the "reformers” considerable alarm. They have sense enough to know that har mony is essential to success and they look to the “great and good” man to bring about that much desired state of affairs. The present plan of the Irby faction, it is reported, is to run Tillman for Governor and their favorite, John Gary Evans, for Lieutenant Governor, with a view to sending Tillman to the United States Senate when the Legislature will meet, so that Evans will succeed to the Gov ernorship. The other candidates are not taking kindly to this plan which will shelve their po litical ambitions. If it be ne cessary for Tillman to run for a third term, every candidate would naturally wish to be the Lieutenant Governor in order to dually reach the gubernato rial chair. The idea that Tillman should run for a third term is not new. It has been predicted and dis cussed before now. Even as far back as last summer The News mentioned it as a possi bility, as will be seen from the following clipping from an edi torial, under the caption “The Beginning of the End,” which appeared in this paper under date of August 10, 1893: “The feeling among the Till- manites that none of these men [the gubernatorial candidates] can hold their party together is an evidence of the failing of the party’s strength and their ina bility to find a leader among the many ‘coat-tail swingers,’ who are anxious to serve their country, increases the belief that has been current for some time that his party will make Tillman run for Governor for a third time. Tillman is a candi date for the United States Sena- torship, but his election to the Governorship need not shut him off from his goal. He may be transferred from the gubernato rial chair to the Senate and the Lieutenant Governor, John Gary Evans or some such man, will then be Governor. There is no doubt but that Tillman is A necessity to his party and without him it would fall to pieces. Hence we shall not be surprised to see him run for a third term and then try to go to the Senate.” Our opinion is now as it was then. The Tillmanites may carry the coming election, but it will be the last. Whether Tillman will be made Senator or will be defeated for that office, the effect will be the same. He will in either event be removed from effective participation in South Carolina politics and his party will go to pieces. GENERAL NEWS. Item* of Interest From All Over The World.

Often times, after many years have elapsed and old landmarks have passed away, those minutes become very valuable. “Consequently a civil engineer always wishes to keep these in his own hands, and men in his employ are not allowed to make copies of minutes of surveys which they make while in his employ. Otherwise an old employee, in leaving and setting up in business for himself, could carry away a large slice of his em ployer’s business.”—New York Herald.

The movement in England to abolish the House of Lords has gained considerable strength recently. It seems to us on this side of the water that the senti- ’ment against the hereditary branch of Parliament is so rap idly crystallizing, that it is only a matter of a very short time when this relic of the past will be a thing of the past. The cause of the movement having so great an impetus just at this period is that the Lords are blocking the way to wards several much needed re forms demanded by the people. This is an age of progress, and men who have power by the mere accident of birth must not block the wheels. Hereditary authority must go, ffff it is not consistent with the times.
