But at it ( and can produce witnesses, in the meantime the anti papers | g 0 we ga y that paper, go on ment; and when the votes are i counted out, it will be seen that four thousand true and solid farmers in Spartanburg county, who gave John Gary Evans a solid support and have stood loy ally by Governor Tillman for four years, must also be ruled out of the party. The Headlight is not published to cater |to the Columbia Register or any other half-breed sheet edited by a “re formed” anti; but it represents the will and the welfare of the farmers of the old Iron district; and that we are faithfully re presenting them in our opposi tion to this iniquitous scheme to call a constitutional convention without submitting the work to the people for their ratification or rejection, will be proven on the Oth day of November next, when Spartanburg will roll up a majority of four thousand ‘ against convention.” We are true to the piinciples ol the Reform movement as we were when we crossed the Sav annah river about three years ago to make our fight for the people. We have never asked any reward at the hands of the party, but battled for the cause devotedly and unselfishly; and all or this time the Columbia Register has been fattening upon the spoils of patronage, while at the same time villifying leaders of the movement. It was the Register that attempted to in augurate a snap March conven tion, which would have deprived our people of a rght to say who they wanted to rule over them, just as that paper is nov trying to disfranchise these sam. ' oters for good and all by advocating a constitutional convention, and which will place a property or educational qualification on suf frage. And it is the veriest rot and rank deception to argue to an intelligent people that even in the event of an educational qualification alone being adopt ed, that the unlettered white man will be cared for. When a ‘negro is refused his ballot be cause he cannot read the Con stitution of his State “under- standingly,” don’t you know that the faction opposed to the vote of our poorer class of whites Will have challengers at the polls, and draw the line on igno rant whites? Of course they will, and it will be out of the power of the faction to which they belong to protect them. Any law that will disfranchise a poor or uneducated negro must and will also disfrachise the poor unlettered white man, and it is hypocrisy and deception to argue otherwise. And yet we see this Columbia Register, after failing in its das tardly plot to have Congressman Shell call a snap March conven tion, and which meant strang ling the voice of the people; when we saw the editor of that paper knifing John Gary Evans in the back, and after The Head- light helped to nominate him for Governor, hanging around his room; when we saw that same sheet blackguarding Senator Ir by. and then trying to get his committee to pay it sixty cents per thousand for printing elec tion tickets, and when outbid by Walker, Evans & Cogswell, taking the same work for only 25 cents; when we saw the Reg ister doing its best to defeat oiir Reform primary; and now we find that same organ advocating a constitutional convention, and criticising and denouncing The Headlight because it has the courage to expose a plot that will disfranchise between one thousand and fifteen hundred of as honest white Reformers as South Carolina boasts, it nause ates and sickens us. And this same Columbia Reg ister denies that the fact of its being State printer has anything to do with its support of a con stitutional convention, and adds that “the printing for n consti tutional convention not amount to much.” The hegis- ter knows that it will amount to a great deal—as much as two sessions of the Legislature, and perhaps more; and then if it was not for the State printing, the Register would have gone to the wall long ago. ^ But while on the subject of the State printing award, we desire to give the taxpayers of South and another firm putting in a much lower bid, the Register filed a second and secret bid with the Secretary at State, in which it was proposed to do the print ing for about 25 per cent less than its first proposition. But the award was made without this second bid being opened, and the Register will, for the next two years, receive for its work 25 per cent more than it was willing to do the printing for. In other words, that Con gressman McLaurin might have an organ to boom him, the farm ^rs of South Carolina are requir ed to pay a newspaper that few of them ever see an enormous profit on its work. Of course we know nothing about this sell-out personally, but ask, did not McLaurin draw up n contract by which the Register employed Koester as editor for a certain length of time? and did it not file v. ith the Secretary of State a separ ate and lower bid than the one accepted? We wanted Mr. Cal- voto get this work, for ho is a true and good man himself; but of course it was expected that he should do the printing as cheaply as other bidders. Now let us give some corrob orative testimonies to strength en this report: A high official in the State Alliance, whose name we can give if necessary, says that Koester came to him and stated that he would take char ™ of the Register at a cer tain time, and intended to change its policy and give John L. McLaurin hail Columbia But the gentleman says he no ticed that the Register contin ued to puff McLaurin, and meet ing its editor ho asked him what kind of a man he was any way —to say one thing and practice directly the opposite. Keoster replied that tho Register was under obligations to McLaurin for work he had done for them in securing the State printing, and so he could not afford to an tagonize him. Then on the heels of this, we find the Reg ster editor attack ing Senator Irby and trying to pull him down, while at the same time booming McLaurin, and actually going to Washing ;on with Bowden to hold a con ference with him (McLaurin) und Shell to arrange to call a snap 5 arch convention! But our evidence of the Reg ister's intention to be well paid for its work for the Reform movement does not stop here: Any member of the State exec utive committee will tell you that the Register first demand ed sixty cents per thousand for printing tickets for the Decem ber election to be held on No vember (ith next, and stated that the work could not be done for less. But, in the meantime, Walker, Evans & Cogswell put in a bid at twentyfive cents, and the work was thought to he awarded to that firm. But the next thing that we hear is that the Register has reconsidered and taken tho job, after stating that the work was worth more than twice the amount it finally accepted. Now, it is not reasonable to suppose, if a paper will make such a mistake in the printing of election tickets, which comes to only two hundred and fity dollars, that it will also err about the State work, where some $50,000 are involved, and bleed the poor tax payers as deep as it wanted to bleed the the Democratic party in that ticket business? Now, let the genuine Reform ers and tax-payers of South Carolina study this matter, and they will see that the Register is well paid out of their pockets for its “devotion” to the Reform movement; and it is the last sheet in the State to criticise the Headlight, or any other news paper, for having the manhood to proclaim its convictions, and which has never received one dollar in either the way of pat ronage or office. If these reports be true and we believe they are true, then the tax-payers of our State are made to pay a bonus of twenty per cent more on the public printing than they would other wise haue Headlight, and we will see who comes out on top. and which pa per truly and unselfishly repre sents the painciples of Reform, the Columbia Register or the Piedmont Headlight] Bucklen s Arnica Salve.
