THE NEW DEMOCRATIC TICKET. As the result of the political unrest which has existed in this County ever since the Reform primary was held early in the fall, a Convention, representing those who felt that they could not submit quietly to the “cut and dried” ticket which was ground out by the party machin ery, was held here on Monday last. This Convention, compos ed alike of Tillmanites and “An tis,” nominated a second Dem ocratic ticket, which will be put before the people at the coming election. The new ticket can not, of course, affect the politi cal relations of those who bound themselves by participating in the Democratic primary, and who will now be compelled to support the ticket nominated thereat. On the other hand, those who did not so bind them selves, having presented for their suffrages two County tick ets, both composed of men whose loyalty to the Democrat ic party in the past is unques tioned, are free to exercise their individual right of action. The only question for t^em to deter mine before casting their ballots is a broad and patriotic one, to wit: Which of these two sets of men would best subserve the public good if elected to office? The News has always taken the position that it was unwise for those opposed to the “ring to nominate either a State or a County ticket this year, and we have not seen anything as yet to make us modify this opinion. But it seems that the judgment of a considerable majority of those who affiliate with us po litically is otherwise. Time will show whether their judgement or ours is at fault. The sole question at if sue between us be ing one of expediency, and that question having been settled by an overwhelming majority, it remains for us to accept this so lution, just as we would have accepted it if a full State ticket had been nominated last month in the face of our solemn pro test. W T e fought the Haskell ticket four years ago because we be lieved that all the Democrats in the State had bound themselves by going into the convention that nominated Qov. Tillman, just as we would have fought any effort that might have been made to put another ticket in the field after the defeat of Sheppard and Orr in the primary of two years ago. In the same way we would oppose the ticket nominated on Monday, even though it cost us every friend we had, if wa felt that those who put it out were in any way committed to the support of the “ring” nominees. As it is, we can, and do, give it our full and unconditional support, and, for what we sincerely believe to b« for the good of our County and State, indulge the hope that, on the sixth day of next Novem ber, it will roll up a majority which will be decided and un questioned. THE CONSTITUTIONAL CONVEN. TION. As there is no opposition to the “ring” candidates except in one or two counties like Dar- lington and Florence where county tickets have been nom inated, by far the greatest issue to be presented to the people of the State at the approaching election will be thairof whether or not a Constitutional Conven tion is to be held. Since the op position of The News to such a Convention might be attributed to the fact that it is an adminis tration measure, we will content ourselves in this issue with giv ing our readers all the light pos sible on this important subject by the publication of articles from certain well known Re formers and Reform organs con cerning it. We need not com ment eith' , r upon the fact that Senator Irby, a ending out the election ticki s to the various precincts, has j.iirposely sent no tickets which would enable the voters to recoi d themselves as against the Convention; and that, but for the efforts which will be made by private parties to remedy the evil, every Demo crat in the State would have to vote as Irby wants hinTto or not at all. His conduct speaks f^r itself. Can self-respecting Dem ocrats tolerate his treating them as so many children, who are How To Make Monoy.

Wives and Daughters Often lose the benefit of lift assurance, taken out for their protection, because of ill-ad vised investments. Again, the intentions of the assured sometimes fail of realization through the prodigality of a son to whom the sudden pos session of so much money proves too great a temptation. Tiie Equitable Life has provided against these contingencies by offering The Tontine Installment Policy. The premiums per thousand are much less than under older forms of insurance, and the amount is jwiyablein 20,25 or 30 annual payments, thus securing a coni fortable income for the beneficiary.
