^KDHgSDAY, KOV. 8. 1893. The Sumter Watchman was founded D 18W aud the True Southron io 1866. The Watchman and Southron now has the combined circulation aud influence of both of the old papers, and is mani festly the best advertwn?g medium in Sunter. _ EDITORIAL NOTES. _ V The Sherman law has been repealed, but silver bas not been discarded as a money metal, for orders hare beeu issued to the mints to prepare to recommence the coinage of silver dol? a rs. The Sadie Means case was decided in favor of Miss Mea&s by the Syood of South Caro? lina at Clinton last aeek. The Charleston Presbytery will however, appeal to the General Assembly. There was a large ma? jority io favor of Miss Means. President Cleveland bas issued his Thanks? giving proclamation. Wheu we think over the past year we see bow many thiugs we iaave to be thankful for, and when we look for? ward to the future there ia much to hope for. Aa we suggested before it would be appro? priate for a collection to be taken up for the Sea Island sufferers at every Thanksgiving meeting held in the State. The results of yesterday's elections show larg? Republican gains. New York has gone Republican, the entire State ticket, Legislature and all. Massachusetts also, electing Sute ticket and Legislature. Same with Ohio. Probably also Pei; usy lr aa ia, Iowa, Nebraska and South Dakota. Virginia, Kentucky, Maryland, and probably New Jersey, go Dem? ocratic. The Clevelaud Democrats in Ken? tucky defeated the Watterson opposition handsomely. This is an "offyear" in poli? ties, and these elections do not, therefore, have the importance and. significance they otherwise would. At Anderson last week Judge Wallace rendered a decision sustaining tue constitu? tionality of the Dispensary law. Judge Wallace bas always proven himself an upright and conscientious judge abd fearless ia tba discharge of what be conceives '.J be bia duly. We hope the Supreme Court will decide that ba is wrong io his conclusion in tina, but we have no doubt of his sincerity ; sor de we propose to imitate the example of administration papers that attempted to cast discredit on bim, wheo be decided against the administration's construction of law some? time ago. The decision will be published io full next week. In our last issue the metropolitan police scheme waa discussed at length, and, as we then declared, it waa not our intention to be a party to au agitation for partisan purposes, and -had entered into a discussion of the question only OD account of the advertisement of the question in a manner that did not accord with the facts as we perceived tin io, nor with our opinion of the sentiment of the community, formed after conversing .vitli many citizens. In the first instaure, our remarks were drawn out by the Columbia Register, and the Herald taking np tbe matter assumed the discussion; and if it finds our remarks offensive it can thank itself. The incident has been used to stir up feeling, and it is to be boped that the editor of tbe Herald will, as a member of tbe Legislature, make good his often protested friendship for Sumter when the metropolitan police measure comes ap. The movement now on foot to have the Legislature amend the act creating the special School District of lb? City of Sum? ter so as to permit tbe election of the Board of School Commis? sioners by popular vote will prove popular, we have no doubt, as ail ntovemeats to en? large the suffrage powers of a people always do. The school will, however, be brought into closer contact with politics, and it is doubtful whether this will result in much benefit to the scbool. Besides we are thor? oughly satisfied that it will be impossible to elect more capable and conscientious commis? sioners than have ser ted on the Board since the scbool was established. Nevertheless we are, on principle, in favor of the election of all public officials, save Judges, by popular election, and see no reason why the Legisla? ture should refuae the petition ii a majority of the property holders of this city sigu it Oaly property owners, however, should be eligible to rete for the School Commissioners. Mr. J. C. Garlington, editor of the Spar tanburg Herald as correspondent of the Co? lumbia State sent a special to thai paper stating that one Henderson a dispensary con? stable bad been arrested by Cn iud States revenue officers for illicit whiskey selling. Gov. Tillman denounced the statement as a lie and a triek cf a tool of the whiskey sell? ers. Mr. Garlington replied, throwing the lie back into his teeth an?! published a fac? simile of a letter from Gov. Tillman's private secretary, D. A. Tompkins, to Henderson, offering him $25 for every arrest with evi? dence to convict a white man of selling liquor. He also proved that Henderson, acting under this authority had made aa arrest. Gov. Tillman attempts to get out of the predicament by saying that Henderson was not a "constable" but merely a special "detective," but bis explanation merely ex? plains by making a distinction when there ts no real difference, except in the method of paying bis agent Mr. Garlington very effectively answers bis own question, *'Wbo Hat Lied?" by showing that it was not him? self. It ia an invidious task to criticise what is intended to be complimentary to our people, but when mew undertake to write history, they should stick to facts In the article from the Detroit Free Press, on our third page, "Charleston's Heroism," st is said among other things, tbat while the street card ceased to ruo, all other business went on as usual, etc. It is a well known fact that "street cars" in Charleston were absolutely uukuown j until several years after the war-probably i not before 1870. It is also equally capable of j proof that after the shelling of the city began, in the latter part of 1863, after the capture by the Federals of Morris Island, there was great exodus of people from the lower portions of the etty, and that almost uo business whatever was transacted South of Wentworth Street or East of St. Philip Street. Weeds grew waist high along Broad Street and Kist Bay, and all the commerce was done at wharves on the j Western side of tbe city along Ashley River, j Again it is stated tu the article referred to, that all the cobblestones which paved the streets were take? up and dumped into the sea, the object being to prevent their being thrown about by explosion of the great shells falling into the city. As a matter of fact, while some of these stones may have been nsed among ethers as a foundation for Fot t j Ripley, nothing like a general uapaving of j the streets took place. OD the contrary the few (if soy) takeo up would not have beeu missed. The absurdity of the statement be? comes apparent wheu it is considered how few of the shells would he like!y to fall in the streets in comparison with those tba? would j mil in or among houses. All this seems very j ungracious, especially wheo tue writ? of the j article goes on fo ?peak so eloquently of ? Charleston'* noble people and the defence of 1 the city and of Fort Sumter, but we are sure be will not object to being corrected io these minor particulars, which do not io tbe least affect the general truthfulness of his descrip tion. LATE, BUT RIGHT. Gen. Hampton has declared his readiness to undertake the organization in South Car? olina of Auxiliary Clubs of the National League of Democratic Clubs. Gen Hampton is in a position to do thia for he is entirely in? dependent, and no one can charge him with entertaining ac expectation of reward for the labor. We are glad that he will undertake the work ; and while it is late to take up the work of organization for a straight, direct fight agaiust the undemocratic condition into which the party has been carried by those who have obtained control of it and perverted it to their own use, it is far better to begin now than not at all. We have always favor? ed a direct contest to preserve the integrity of the p?rty, even tu the face of defeat, rather than to supinely consent to its subor? dination as during the last three years and a half. The issue should have been made long ago, and had the line been drawn then.no such resolutions as those ol Larimer denounc? ing Cleveland, would have issued from a convention held under the regular organized Democracy of South Carolina ; and many other undemocratic utterances and acts would not have been put forth with '.he sanction of the Democratic party. We do not believe that the course of politi? cal events during the last three years would have been altered by the separation of the true democrats from the Populism-Alliance faction, but it would have prevented their enforced consent to the acts of an organiza? tion controlled bj- those who have acted in opposition to the principles ot the party whose name they have used. The D?mocratie party "tu South Carolina bas been in opposition to the National plat? form long enough, and if we are to have a Demo? ra: ic party in this State, it should he in accord iu principles, as well as in name, with the National Platform; therefote we favor .Gen. Hampton's plan, for unless some decisive move is made, Gov. Tillman, Sena? tor Irby and others will succeed, uuopposed. tn their determination to carry the democrats of this State into the Populist party. Judge Simonton Endorsed. The Bar of Sumter held a meeting on last Satutday afternoon aud adopted resolutions endorsing Judge Simonton for appointment to succeed Judge Bond as Circuit Judge. The resolutions have been forwarded to Washing ion, and ?ere, in substance, as follows: WUKEKAS a vancancy exists in tbe positiou of ?. S. Circuit Judge by the death of Judge H.
