The watchman and southron. (Sumter, S.C.) 1881-1930, June 18, 1890, Image 2
WEDNESDAY, JUNE 18.
The Sumter Watchman was fouuded |
in 1850 and the True Southroii in l$b'6. I
The Watchman and Southron now has
tbe combined circulation and influence j
of both of the old papers, and is mani
festly the best advertising medium in j
Sam ter.
ANYTHING TO BEAT EARLE.
We have been informed by a reliable |
gentleman that the leaders of Tillman- j
ism and the desperate opponents of Col. J
Karle in this county have agreed upon a j
basis for combination and log rolling,
and that is to elect seven Tillman and
three Bratton delegates to the General
Convention from Sumter.
. ?.\Ve cannot believe that the friends of j
Gen Brattou, however much they may j
hate Earle, would lend themselves to j
any such scheme. There is nothing io j
common between that noble old gentle- j
man, Gen'l Bratton and Ben. Tillman.
His counsel would be against any com- j
promise of principles to serve the ends
of personal malice aod hatred.
The contest is this County from the !
nature of things, must necessarily be I
between Earle and Tillman an<* any
votes for Gen'l Bratton iu Sumter |
County would be either thrown away or
goto strer^then Tillman.
The desperate game of "anything to j
beat Earle" ought not to lead men into !
any scheme or collusion requiring a ;
sacrifice of principles. Democrats must I
be either for or against Ttlhnan, There
can be no half way ground.

THE STATE CAMPAIGN.
Up to this writing campaign meetings |
have been held at G reenvil'.e, Spartau- ,
burg. Laurens and New berry. At ,
each of these places Tillman, Earle and j
Bratton huve been present and have j
spoken, as candidates for Governor, j
Y J. Pope aod Eugene B. Gary, as
candidates for Attorney General on the !
Tillman ticket, Adj't Gen'l Bonham, |
on his own motion and Hugh S. Farley |
as a Tillmanite, have spoken and pre
sented themselves as candidates for that
office. Col Quitman Marshall, Secre- j
tary of State, also spoke at Greenville, |
and then went to EJgefieid aod got .
married, a far more agreeable occu- j
pation.
It is useless to attempt to disguise j
the fact that each of these meetings
was overwhelmingly, aggressively, aod j
aggravatingly Tillmanite. The other ;
side or sides hardly got a showing, and
for any apparent effect produced, the
candidates may as well have been em
pioyed in the hopeless task of whistling j
down the wind. At most of the places, \
in the evening, after the hosts of Till- |
man had betaken themselves homeward, !
complimentary serenades were given to !
Earle and Bratton by the friends of
those gentlemen, showing that there \
were a few men ir eh place who have
Dot bowed the * to Ben nor kissed |
his image.
Benny told a singularly foul story at j
Greenville, it appears, which caused all
tbe ladies present and some modest |
men to blush .for. shame. One of our j
gifted^ conVeniporaries thereupon rises !
to advise^ladie? henceforward to abstain i
from attending these meetings, lest Ben !
forgef(?) himself again and discharge i
his lip to their discomfiture. We also |
advise the ladies to keep away, for Ben
not only tells his howling followers to :
hush up their mouthy a hard thing, it ;
is said, for ladies to do, but he even j
designates his adherents as a parcel :
of .jackasses, as at Ridgeway, a term
wholly unwarranted when ladies are j
present. But Ben is solid with the
voters, it seems, whatever uncompli :
mentary epithets he may apply to them, j
however hopelessly vulgar his campaign
stories may be.
These meetings, we have observed,
are generally opeued with prater. We j
feel deeply that prayers ought to be
made for those who are or who are to
be iu authority, but we also cannot sup
press the feeling or the expression of it
that prater <>n the occasion of red hot
political meetings is cut of place, it j
there is any recognition of a higher be- j
ing than Tillman at any of them, it
there is any religion except a certain
blind and unreasoning devotion t<; shi> ;
new political Moses, we have not ob- j
served it. We cannot think that pray
er, in sueii circumstances, ran av,:il
much Tr is an abu-e. of : he real mean
ing aud office of prayer, and bhouid be
left out of the program. !
We observe that Col J J Dargan
went to Anderson on M today IJ<
goes for two reason.-; fiift, to deliver;
the address before the literary societies j
of tiie Pat lick .Military School, and
secoud. to speak, if permitted, at the
campaign meeting to-day. We avilir
with interest the account.-, from that
meeting, which cannot fail to be etormy
indeed.
Among others specifically charged
by Ti'dman with perjury in violating
their oa?h t?.- support the Constitution,
is Judge James F. Iziar, <;f Oraoge
burg, recently elected to succeed di
late Judge Aldrtch. This will be a
matter of surprise to tbe people of r! <
State, aod it. will require a t-n at deal
more than Ben'? unsupported assertion,
to make them b^iieve :t. It is on a
par with many of!.er reckless charge*
made by this urt.-rly tn^crupuious ;? >:>,
who either not understand the
force and meaning of the language .':<
employs, or eUe js too extreme, unsafe
aud violent a partisan i<o~ any respect
abi^ set of men to follow.
Since setting up r!i?; above-, reports ,
of the Abbeville meeting have reach <i '
lift They show that the tide has at. hst
been turned, and, strange to say, iu j
that county where Tillman wh- thought i
to be without serious opposition.
tien Kar?e'? speech was ',o;g'*C!->:ve
aod tuilitiii.
('apt. Weber closes his report of the
meeting with the following summing
up: The tide has turned. Abbeville
has risen up and more than chocked
Ti?man's wheel. What was conceeued
to be a Tillman county has given the
best Anti-TiUinan demonstration of the
campaign. The cheers to-day were not
by any means all on one side. Anti
Tillman men are enthusiastic, and say
that they are now ready f-?r work.
To-day's meeting will serve to revive
the courage of those who have lest
heart. It was. all things considered, a
great triumph for the Anti-Ttilinan wing.
The Richland Democracy, in mass meeting
assembled in Columbia hist night reso!* d it
self into a campaign club, and adopted ringing
resolutions against the vile language and
untruthful slanders on which the campaign
for Tillman is being run, and calling upon
the people to attend all public meetings and
labor io save the State from Tilimanism.
Judge A. C- Ffaskell and Gen Johnson
H.tgcod made speeches, the hater defending
Col. Butler and the Agricultural Department.
We will print the resolutions and have some
thing to say about them next week.

participate in our proceedings; This we
naturally objected to. and refused to pera*it.
After some heated discw.-sioll the gathering

the meeting assembled also, for the purpose
ot preventing any public endorsement by the

Karlitrs came on the groutnis 'hey found a
much larger crowd awairng them. The
friends of Col. Knie called Dr. W. W. !
Atiderson, Sr., to the chair Seeing thev
would r-e outvoted, they refused to submit
their resolutions to the crowd, claiming that
they had extended p'ivate invitations and
desired to hold a private meeting among the
friends of Gui. Knie only, und to have those
friends sign the resolutions. The oppon nts

PURELY MUTUAL.
INCORPORATED 1847.
Life Insurance Company of Philadelphia.
ASSETS, $15174078. January M. 181 SURPLUS, $2,626190
THE OOilNO INVESTMENT.
The matter of in vestment in life insurance is now attracting
the South, as it lias already absorbed the .Northern savings.
The matter for providing for one's family an immediate estate
and accumulating a fund which will be available to one's self in
cash when the working years of one's life have passed, is now
recognized as a public blessing to ail, and has proven a more
profitable investment than government or State bonds or savings
banks, especially as the leading insurance policy embodies all
the elements of a savings institution.
Policies issued by the Perm Mutual Life Insurance Company,
of Philadelphia, have printed upon the second page a table
showing the cash values of the policies every year, so that the
policy is always available It was the first company ii; the
world which went before the Legislature and petitioned for the
non-forfeiture law of policies, which law has saved so many mil
lion dollars to helpless widows and orphans. It issues every
plan of insurance, from the term "insurance," that costs a man
oO years old $12 per $1,000 tip to the 6 per cent, guaranteed
and annuity bonds. Terms and results of policies of any de
scrip! ion may be had on application.
FEATURES OF PENN MUTUAL
They are Incontestable.
After two years from issue of policy there are no conditions, limitations or res
trictions. The insured tuny travel or re.-ide where he likes ; he may engage in
any avocation, no matter how hazardous : he may die from any cause or under
any circumstances ; the only requirement is the payment of premium as stipu
lated in the policy.
They are Non-Forfeit able.
Every dollar paid the Company secures the member full value, io ao equi
table form, after three payments Tit) most cases after two).
The Company's plans for ' Extension" and "Paid-up" provide against loss to
members who discontinue their policies.
Cash Surrender.
Manv forms of policies permit a member to withdraw at any period of five
yea s, others a: the end of longer periods, as selected, r-iking with him iu casii,
the full reserve-value uf his policy-, inclusive of all surplus accumulation.
Cash Loans.
Certain policies contain the agreement to lend the member upon their security
sixty-sis per ceut. (being not less than SlOO ) of the reserve value; thus
guarding against their ianse. and enhancing their value as Marketable Collateral.
There is nothing which is safe and desirable in life insurance, no new and
commendable feature, that h omitted from the revised forms and plans of this
well-tried and enduring institution.
Are you insured by an incontestable, non-forfet table p.uicy. with liberal feat
ures such as the Pent) Mutual issues? Is your esh.te secured, is your family
safe were you to die ? Are your own later years provided for against want and
care? If not, get our plans?any f?>rtn is open to you, and invest a few dollars
with us annually, semi-annual'y or quarterly, and you may safely enjoy the
balance of your income. For information apply to,
