TILLMAN'S CHANGE OF FRONT.
It will be remembered thut at
a conference between certain
leaders of the Reform and Con
servative factions held in Col
umbia some months ago, com
monly known as the Tillman
Barnwell conference, Senator
Tillman pledged himself to ad
vocate an equal divismn of the
delegates to the Constitutional
Convention between the two
factions, provided the Conser
vative leaders who united in
the pledge with him would use
their influence to secure a gen
eral agreement to certain con
ditious demanded by the Re
formers. It was as the result
of this understanding, and of
theeffortsmade by "The Forty,”
that a good many of the coun
ties have taken action looking
to an equal division of the dele
gates, while a number of others
have made arrangements for
the accomplishme.it of the same
end. In a newspaper interview
published on Sunday last, Sena
tor Tdlman repudiates the obli
gation then entered into, and |
says that he feels bound by it
no longer. We cannot say that
we are surprised, but we are
disappointed. To be perfectly
frank, it has always been our
opinion that Senator Tillman
subscribed to the agreement on
ly because it suited his own
purposes to do so, and that he
would stand to it only so long
as it continued to suit his pur
poses, which we had hoped
would be until after the whole
matter about the Constitutional
Convention had been settled. It
is in the failure to realize this
hope that we have been disap
pointed, and in this onlv.
As far as we can unders'and
from the published interview
with the Senator, the cause for
his change of position is based
upon the * ay in which some of
our Conservative friends re
ceived Judge Goff’s decision,
the alleged failure of the press
of the State to labor tor the suc
cess of the "peace and unity”
plan, the recent ovation given
Gen. Hampton in Charleston,
and the seal of approval which
the press (theJVetc* and Courier,
in particular) placed upon that
ovation. The last claim which
the State of South Carolina
can have to the respect of the
rest of the nation will pass away
on the day that the Conserva
tives refuse to honor Wade
Hampton, and we love Charles
ton more than ever for the hon
ors she has recently paid him.
A pioneer in the movement for
‘‘peace and unity,” an earnest
laborer in that cause in defiance
of the judgment of almost every
political friend we had, a laborer
who will continue his efforts in
that direction as long as there
remains the slightest chance of
effecting anything, we say un
hesitatingly that if the scheme
for securing “peace and unity”
is inconsistent with the main
tenance of the affection and
gratitude we feel for Wade
Hampton, we will have none of
itl
Senator Tillman is entirely
mistaken in regard to the atti-
tu<|e of the newspapers of the
State towards the movement for
“peace and unity.” A consid
erable majority of them have
earnestly advocated it. We do
not pretend to deny that the
Goff decision was made the
occasion for rejoicing by some
of our friends, but they
were not the Conservatives who
entered into thi agreement with
Senator .Tillman. These last
have been faithful to their part
of the compact, and stand ready
today to do the utmost that can
be done in honor to carry out
its terms. As they stated in the i
Tillman made use of a pretext
that was worse; than no pretext
at all. It would have been much
more frank and straightforward
for him to have assigned the
real reason for his change of
front, namely, that it did not
suit him to abide by it any
longer.
It remains to be seen whether
the Reformers are going to be
willing to go to the extent of
undoing all they have done in
the direction of securing "peace
and unity” just because one
man tells them to undo it, even
if that one man be no less a per
son than Senator Tillman him
self. Our people are tired of
strife; the “peace and unity”
idea has been rapidly gaining
ground, and there’s no telling
but that we may be able to se
cure it even w ithout the assist
ance of him who has so com
pletely dominated the State for
the past five years. We certain-
ly hape that we can; and we do
not intend to give up hoping
until the very last.
