TUB ADDRESS
*to the Democratic Party of South
Carolina: A grave crisis in the history
of oar State confronts as." The life'of
oar party is threatened. While en
preiaacy in Sou:h Carolina is endan
gered. What was predicted, bat hardly
expe^ed, ties happened. An Inde
pendent movement has been inaugurat
ed? %B>Tudep*nd^^ ticket has been
nominated, and for its success io the
impending election a coalition has been
I S??Ve^fefcd' Between the Republican party
and the deserters from the ranks of the
Decaocracy.
A Vmatl gathering' of citizens catling
^beasejves StrarghtoUt1 Democrats,
representing at best only a defeated
minority of a defeated r?ority of the
V" "Democrats of the State, have held a
'conference in Columbia, in defiance of
the regularly constituted authorities of
our party, have set at naught the action
of the regular Democratic conventions
held ml August and September, hare
proclaimed war against our D?mocratie
. ...... jeader? and_ nominees, and, to lead
.Aem?~ro tljis- internecine strife, they
have nominated a fall State ticket, with
Judge?. Haskell at its head, as their
no m?nee for 'Governor.
&X tbt8:*?i?8ren their part, in op
position t^'?he"actif?? of an overwhelm
ing^^jority of tie Democrats of South
Carolina,they h eve read themselves
oafr. of th? ranks of the Democracy.
By .oatfing upon ice the negro voters
,, ? to aS2 ; them in their fratricidal war
' aga1ast"tHeir whi fe: brethren, they have
declared the mselves ready to join hands
with tbe bla.ck man in pulling down
and destroying the white man's govern
ment, ana^ ready and willing to see
Soo^ Carolina again ander the heel of
the alientyrant and taeignorani negro.

positions in reward for their distin
< ; go isned^.er vices as p.ztriots and .Demo-r
crats. ft is therefore with feelings of
; regret and disappointment that we see
them voluntarily departing from oar
D?mocratie ranks and subjecting them- j
s selves to th?'.oensafa bo 'w.e4l .expressed
by Governor Hampton when, be said
* that an Indept-ndeut is worse than a
Radical. ' ' ' : i
v. r Bat oarggiuty is clear.. The Demo
^tta^cratro-j>arty ?f South: 1 Carolina must
defeat-this Independent movement. Ko
' ^%"?e%?cr?t can conscientiously vote

call cpon you. the white men of the
whole State, as patriots and as Detno
*'crats, to be true to y^or*. country, trae!

By alt that you hold dear, by your live,

. Much though you may admire and
. -- esteem Judge Haskell and ; bis co-uou?
nees, yon will, as faithfal Democrats
and ' patriotic South Carolinians, vote
for the regnlar Democratic ticket which
was nominated Vy the,Democratic Con

greater importance to this State than

^^Darvlina^ whbh .w*^ -adopted by. the

other specious arguments it is sought
therein to induce good Democrats to be
disloyal to their party by telling them
that it is vain to say that the action
a' political party exempts the voter fr
responsibility. This is a trap for the
unwary, a prop for tbe unsteady. Such
f -action ri% utterly an democrat ic. No

"The committee also formulated the
"' flowing call, which was given to the
press :
"lUsolved, That mass meetings are
>^eTe^,: ea!l?d io each County io this
^^?afe^^tSe ?dkrl l?oaiie^'thereo? on
Monday, tbe 27tb day of October in
stant, excepting Charleston and Colum
" bia. where said meetings shall be held,
in Colombia on Tuesday, the 28tb, and
in Charleston on 29th day of October,
and that Senators Hampton and Butler
and t-he State nominees be invited to be
- present and address the people at these
. latter .places.
That the Chairman of the executive
committee of the different counties will
be expected-to make arrangements cud
provide speakers for their respective !t
4>oaotiee. Jn counties where it will be
inconvenient to hold these meetings on
the day designated, the county chair
man will bold the same on a day to be
designated by him. .
By order of the campaign committee.
J. L. M. Irby, Chairman.
Wilie Jones, Secretary protein.
It is understood that the object of
these simultaneous meetings is to make
u demonstration in force- which will dis*
courage the Haskell supporters. It is
an original idea in our State politics.
Capt Tillman and several of his friends
. left the ci'.y this afternoon. Others of
the party remain over to-night.
-iGrovern?r Richardson was to-day
watted on by Col. Irby, who presented
to him the following resolutions adopted
by the campaign committee to-day ;
* Whereas, the Democratic party of
South Carolina did* in convention
assembled, on the 10th day of Septem
ber, 1890, make its nomination of State
officers :.and
1 Whereas, an Independent movement
;feas been inaugurated for the purpose of
defeating the nominees of said Demo
cratic party; and
, Whereas, at a conference of the sup
porters of said Independent movement
held in Columbia on the 9th day of
October, 1890, nominations for State
officers were made in opposition to the
nominees of the Democratic party ; and
.Whereas^ it appears that certain
parties, heretofore appoioted by bis
Excellency Governor Richardson as
commissioners of ?lection, have takeb^
part in faid conference, and are sup
porters of said Independent movement ;
and
Whereas, it is of vital importance to
the Democratic party and essential to
the preservation of white supremacy in
this State that the commissioners of
election should be Democratic; there
fore be it
Resolved, By the campaign commit
tee of the Democratic party, iu view of
this unforeseen emergency and grave ,
crisis, that relying upon Governor
Richardson's fidelity to the Democratic
party and his well-known advocacy of
white supremacy in South Carolina,
bis .Excellency be respectfully and
earnestly requested to remove such
commissioners of election as shall be
shown to him to be in sympathy with said
Independent movement, and to appoint .
Democrats in their stead.
the govekxor*s reply.
Col. Irby ,reported to the committee -:
that the Governor had received bim
courteously, and had stated that should
any"of the commissioners of election
resign, a place on each board from
which the resignation was wade should
be given to the Tillmanitea.'
:-~ Ii is.otherwise ascertained that the
Governor informed Col. Irby that the
appointments had not been made for the
purpose of secaring unfair advantage to
any party or faction, but to esure a fair
election and.honest count.. It may be.
regarded as settled .that the Governor
will not.remove any. appointee except
for just cause shown to htm.
