One Dollar a Year. DAHIJNCTOX, S. C. Wediiesday, March 9, 1892. If Tillman was the choioe of the majority of the Democrats for the office of Governor, will somebody please explain why he did not, at the election, get a majority of the Demo cratic votes? The new editor, Mr. Larry Gantt, of the Columbia Register, is evident ly an experienced newspaper man, as the paper has very much improved in his hands. If we mistake not he supports the Ocala demands, and, if this be true, we shall have occasion *o differ with him on many jioints, but despite this we very cheerfully bear testimony to his ability as an editor. He will unquestionably be an important acquisition to Mr. 'rill- man’s supporters. The ways of providence arc indeed inscrutable It is hard to under stand why all the brains, honestly and patriotism allotted 'o South Carolina were distributed among that little band of Straightouts, and none left for the rest of our inhabitants! Hut we suppose it was all for the best.—Columbia Register. The new editor of the Register has very evidently forgotten the profound statesman and unselfish patriot who instructs us all through the columns of the Abbeville Medium. Governor Tillman’s speech at New berry l e t Saturday was the most temperate which he has yet delivered. He was himself however, when he deehred the stock, law to have pro duced a curse by discouraging stock raising, and when he condemned the lien law as an evil. The bad effects of these laws all have recognized, bnt no one has yet been wise enough to remedy them.—Camden Chronicle. The stock law was one of the best laws ever enacted in the State, and its repeal would produce something like a revolution in the upper and middle portion of the State. It would cost a great deal more to fence the arable land in Eastern South Carolina, than all the cattle, sheep and hogs in the State are worth, to say nothing of the wholesale destruc tion of the timber that would be used to put up the fencing. A great many people, in case of a repeal of the law, would have to abandon their lands, so far as planting is concerned, for the simple reason that they would lack both the material and the mon ey to fence them. So far from dis couraging the raising of stock, it has had the opposite effect, unless the long-nosed, razor-backed piney woods hog is prefered to the Rerkshire and Essex, and the scrub cow to the Jersey, Holstein or Durham. Hut putting all other considerations aside, no man has a right to raise stock at the expense of his neighbor, and so far as the justice of it goes, it is just as admissible for him to take corn from the field himself as to permit his cow to do it. The lien law, like everything else of human origin, has its defects, but we would be glad for the Chronicle or Gov. Tillman to ex plain how, in a year like this a poor man could secure the advances that would enable him to make a crop. One effect of its repeal would be to force the poor man io hire himself out for wages, and of course this would not, to many of them, be very pleasant.
