Cotton has risen rapidly within
last week and there is great exoiten
in speculative circles. Predictions
rife by sprculators that cotton will
ibr eight cents or more this fall,
such predictions are not to be cred
at this time, as it is the planting sea;
and it will be to the advantage of
speculators to induce the farmers
plant a big crop.
Temoah, the negro member of
Massachusetts Legislature, coocero
whose non-reception on a social foot
in the South such a rumpus was rai
io the North, has introduced a bill io
Legislature making it an offence

public places to discriminate agai
negroes. We hope Temoah will
able lo give the Massachusetts bowl
their fill of the negro and social eqo

social equality in the South, but u
care to kerp the negro down in i
North. 1
A drummer aod a farmer who h;
pened to meet on a train were discu
ing the silver question aud the pr
of cotton. Both were very decid
io their opinions and had begun
get hot in the collar. The farmer m
that the demooetizaiioo of silver b
depreciated the price of cotton a:
everything else and that a man could o
begi? to pay his debts. But the drui
mer interrupted. "How about hens
said he, how about hens, don't th
still sell for thirty cents apiece ?" Ti
farmer got mad and quit. Afterwa
he confided to a fellow-passenger ;b
the drummer was a fool and not able

The Epworth Orphanage, which wi
be built by the Methodists of tb
State within the next year will be 1
cated in the town offering the mo
favorable inducement. Those in char*
of the matter have let it be understoc
that an expenditure of $5,000 by a eil
that has the necessary advantages <
location and healthfulness will seem
the orphanage. The buildiogs to t
erected will cost between ?25,000 an
?50,000, and not less than 200 chi
dreu will be in the institution at a
times. The Orphanage would be
valuable acquisition to any city, and ff
this reason we should be glad to hav

The free silver sentiment is gainin
in strength all over the country, bu
the South and West is almost ready t
accept the doctrine as a uuit. It- be
comes another question when the uei
silver party is taken into consideration
There are a great many free silvc
Democrats who will not 'leave tb<
Democratic party for they believe that
majority of the party favors fre>
silver and they can fore
the minority to either accept -be issn
or ieave tho party. The Republican
are also split concerning free silver
already a strong faction has declared it
favor of it. The conditions are sue!
that the silver party bas but a possi
bility of maki?g winning of fight in th?
next campaign.
As far as can be learned, not i
bushel of Western corn has been re
ceived in this place this year, and ai
the present time one man has mor(
than three thousand bushels of corn foi
sale, all of which was raised in this
county. This is an indication of the
condition of the county. When we
export hog6 and cease importing corn,
we are surely on the up grade.
We are not disappointed in Samps
Pope. He has again come to the front,
and is making things interesting for
John Gary Evans and the ring. Samps
is the last man to discount.
Thc Tillman-Hemphili conference
bas gotten the men who attended it
and signed the terms of agreement iuto
a snap. They are made to occupy the
role of conspirators by Samps l'ope
and Jud?e Goff, and may be perma?
nently enjoined.
The aunouueemeut that (icu Hamp?
ton will 8penk in Charleston bas created
great interest throughout the State, and
the many friends and admirers of the
leader of '7G arc anxious to hear him
speak once more. If excursion rates
can be obtained a party will probably
go down from Sumter. Several old
Confederates have expressed a desire to
, make the trip.
The farmers of the South do Dot ap?
pear to have fully realized the im meuse
shortage io the corn crop of 1893 and
1894 The crop of 1893 was short
450,000,000 bushels as compared wir h
the crop of 1891, and the crop of 1894
fell sbon 840.000,000 as compared
with the same year. The great com
crop of the South 'aet year alone pre- i
vented an unprecedented risc iu ;
the price of com. As it is, thc 1
stock of corn is vrrv small, and ;
should there be another short crop ,
io the West the price of corn will
go op to a figure never reached in re- j
cent years. Uoder the circumstances it
behooves the farmers of thc South to .
m?ke every effort to increase thc yield !
of corn in this section. It ?9 essential j
that the South produce sufficient corn
for home consumption, and it will be to j
the advantage of the farmers of the j
South if they raise eDough corn to sup- I
ply the outside demand that will follow j
another short crop in the West.
The Spanish piodar will divide j
honors ?in Sumter County this year
with tobacco as a new crop.
Mr. Shirley C. HoghsoD who has j
already made a more thao local reputa- !
tioo by hi* researches in thc history of \
South Carolina, recently contributed a
very interesting article to the New
c i
York Post that throws much light upon :
the political conditions existing in this i
State during the days when the nullifi- I
cation ?truggle was at its height. The
article shows thorough research and a
familiarity with tjje forgotten events of :
the most stormy era of the State's his?
tory that few men possess.
A special press correspondent now in j
Coba reports that the insurrection has J
been greatly overrated. That it is lit? j
tie more than an uprising of negroes j
and outlaws of the worst class. If this
be true it is rather remarkable that thc
Spanish government is makiog such ex?
tensive preparations to suppress the in?
surrection.
COL. DARGANS RECEPTION IN
CAMDEN.
From the Daily Item, April 19.
Tbe following editorial in The Freeman,
Col. Dargan's paper, appears to-day :
"The editor of The Freeman had a cold
reception in Camden yesterday, to put it
mildly. Perhaps, the purpose was to cool ;
his "burning thought." Hallowell wa3 evi- j
dently not so fkr wrong after all."
Col. Dargan said in an interview, to-day to ;
our Item reporter, that ins reception in Cam
deo yesterday was a great surprise and dis- j
appointment to him. That, meeting two j
quire prominant white citizens of Camden in
Sumter recently, he showed them some com?
ments from the Northern press on the Hullo
well matter, and they suggested that he (Col I
Dargan) write a letter over hts own name to
the Boston Transcript and other papers,
saying that he (Cel. Dargan) was
satisfied that the netter class of people of
Camden had no sympathy with the I
"Regulator letter," and had no knowledge
whatever of it, except what they saw in the
public print. Col. Dargan says he promised ;
to do this, as he could flo so with perfect
sincerity. Seeing these two gentlemen of
Camden next morning, he suggested that in
place of wriiiug the letter to the Hoston
Transcript, as he was going to Camden any j
way soon to make a public address, he i
would hurry u;> matters and go there the ;
next week That whenever South Caro li-|
nirttis listened patiently to his speeches on ;
the Constitutional Convention, they proved i
conclusively that they are not opposed to I
free speech.
The gentlemen of Camden fully agreed j
with him that this was the best way to
handle the Hallowell matter, and suggested '?.
Thursday instead of Wednesday for the
speaking.
Col. Dargan says he was in hopes he could
do Camden, where he bas a great many friends I
and relatives, as well as the rest of the State, j
a great good by showing that freedom of,
thought, speech and action in regard to the !
negro problem is permuted in bou'h Caro- j
lina.
But to his astonishment, these two prorai?
nent citizens were in Camden, nut neither at- ;
tended the meeting, neither did any of Col. ;
Dargan's friends or relatives attend the ?
meeting, and ouly a few white people strag- j
gled in from the street?, apparently from idle
curiosity, and all of them but three or four ?
lett, and apparently "in a huff," at tbe first
allusion io the Hallowell matter.
On-the streets, io the store doors, in .
wagons and bugles, wherever he saw white j
people, there waa evidently a feeling ap- ?
proaching uearer to hostility than indifference, !
to h?3 presence in Camden, and if he had ;
been of a nervous temperament in regard to I
regulators, he would hate been inclined to
seek shelter somewhere. He hopes that he i
misinterpreted the signs that were on people's i
faces; but for the present be cannot commend
Camden as a place where people love free j
speech.
He thinks old Mr. Hallowell acted wisely'
in vacating Camden.
About seventy-five colored people from {
time to time were present at his speaking.
He says "he spoke bis f peech" to the few
white people who were there, just the same as
if there were a thousand, but can scarcely
hope that he did much good, as those be
wanted to speak to were not there.

Editorial Note in Daily Item 20th.
There was given in the local columns
yesterday au intcrvew with Col. J. J.
Dargan relative to his experience in
Camdon where he delivered a speech
on Thursday. His speech, we pre?
sume, was in ?ino with hi.* speeches
here and in Columbia with the addition
of the II olio well incident to attract
attention and create local interest. In
thus assuming to criticise an occurrence
that has aroused a feeling in Camden
that thc place and people have been
fa 1 s I y accused, if not maliciously
slandered, Col. Dargan made a mis?
take, to say thc least. Ile should not
complain that the white people did not i
turo out en masse to hear him, for his
speeches iu-other places have n t :,c*t:
acceptable, and rm mau or COG? tn uni.' y
can be expected, with reason, to li-rt:,
to speeches that are offensive to them.
He was accorded tho freedom nf ti?.
community and was not interfered with
in any way. He made his speech to
all who cated to hear him. What more
could he demaud ? This is free speech,
and it is all that a citizen has a right *o
expect.
But Cul. Dargan does the com?
munity in which he was accorded this
right an injury when be says, *'he
thinks old Mr. Hallowell acted wisely
io vacating Camden.;' "if he had been
? !
of a nervous temperament, in regard to
regulators, he would have been inclined I
to seek shelter somewhere." "Hopes'
be misinterpreted the sign* that
were on the people's face?, but for
the present he cannot commend Camden
as a place where people love free
speech."
These remarks will be used by the
Hallowell ilk as confirming all the
charges made hy them, and to prove
that others besides themselves believe
io the existence ofthat mvthical or^ani
0 C
zation "The Kershaw and Richland !
Regulator.* " What evidence has Coi.
Dargan that a man of nervous temner- .
aim nt should seek shelter somewhere ? ;
What reason has he tor saying that ;
Camden is a place where people do not ;
love free speech ? None in either case
except that the white people did not
furn out to hear his speech and the in?
terpretation he chose to pat upon the
expression of men's faces. He does not
charge that he was interfered with,
insulted or spoken to roughly. No, I
he reads men's faces and joins
this man Hallowell in enmdemning the
people of Camdeu. Col Dargan ix
carrying bi-? idiosyncrasies too far, and
he should call a halt on himself.

What Col. Dargan Has to Say For !
Himself.
. SUMTER, S. C., April 22, 1895
Editor of Thc Item : To try to make the
impression that Sumterand Columbia have;
accorded me similar treatment to that I re-I
ceived in Camden is "a mistake" on your
part and you must really "call a halt oo i
yourself" My first speech on th.e Constitu
tiona] Convention might bn.ve been a sur- ?
prise to some people in Sumter who don't i
read, ?nd reflect as they read, the columns of
the Freeman. That first meeting, though the j
night was hideous with sleet, slope and win?*,
was weil attended by th" white people and
the speech reported with great fullness in ?ll :
the local (save one) pupers and many of the ?
State papers. Vet the next meeting was
somewhat better attended by the whites, and
the third meeting was immense, and many
about 300-were whites nd tbe crowd
listened earnestly and respe fully through
out in every instance. i
In Columbia the meeting ? most gratify- ?
ing and encouraging to ai; lovers of tree I
thought and free speech. White men of'
??realest prominence arid influence in city and
State were in attendance, and in sufficient
numbers '.o occupy all the space within the
nar of the court room. Eighteen theological
students, came in a body, and advised rae of
their conting, and all knowing my views and
sentimmts as expressed and published in the
Sumter speeches, yet came out to hear and i
listen and did listen with marked attention j
and respectful outward bearing ai least, and
after the speech was over more than a dozen
came up to shake hands with me una declare
their pleasure in listening to such "free and
fearless utterance" however much they "dis?
agreed with ihe conclusions" I had readied. '
Now how very different W.?S it in Camden ?
Arid was I not right in sayiDg that I "can?
not commend Camden as a place where peo?
ple lo vt- free speech ?" Evidently they allow?
ed it only when toey could not help them?
selves.
There I had reason to expect that they and I
had one poiut at least ic common, the delire to I
show that Mr. Hallowell was mistaken in I
thinking the people of that eily bad aQy but |
fee?Dgs of detestation for regulator methods
and that speech was as tree there as in Boston.
Knowing that two very prominent men had :
totd me they were anxious that sucb should
be the impression and expressed pleasure and
imerest in my corning. I expected, as this
cjave me reason to expect, and so published
io the papers, a large crowd of the best peo?
ple, to treat meas I had been treated in Sum?
terand Columbia, respectfully, while they
listened to views with which they did not at
all agree. Instead of tiiis I was left to get
along without an audience, I was frowned at
and avoided by people who heretofore, even
since my speeches io Columbia nnd Sumter, ;
have been friendly with me, and I infer that .
it was done to deepen the impression that :
"men of the Hallowell ilk" and all defenders
of the right to hold such views and be guilty .
of such conductas Hallowell, that is, mani?
festing an interest in negro schools and
churches, and negro elevation and improve- ;
ment-for this was all Mr. Hallowell really,
did to offend-should be shown that Camden
is not the pioce for them.
I confidently expected, after I felt the hot
breath of the place, to see an outbreak be?
fore I got away to mob me for coming.
Now if Camden wishes to raise, as she has ,
effectively done, a Cbioese wall about herself
and stay in there and nurse her negro preju- j
dices let her do it ; but pray don't try to put
a similar wall about Sumter.
The Freeman is doing a great work in ad?
vertising Sumter as a place where freemeu are
not molested-as can be shown to any one
who will call at this office aod see the com- 1
rnents of press and pulpit ic large cities by \
most eminent editors anti one divineon the fact
that such a paper is published here.
The Freeman has called attention more
than once to the kind treatm.-nt the editor
rtceivea here from the masses of the people,
and the fact that the paper has been support?
ed for four ytmrs by local money. Tb?5e facts
wiil soon bc worth tens of thousands ot dollars
to this city aud will tiring what we most want
thrifty, money-investing and money-iu?kiog
free-minded, m inly men here.
No, don't ?el it be supposed that Sumter i?
going to range herself along side of those old
timer, ri?1 y Camden folks. Let them flock to
themselves, or eel io with Charleston and
the X?ws and Courier ?nd ?tay behind the
procession, or be dragged at the tail o' the
CK: of progress. Sumter is now seen in the
van of thought and liberty, and is going to
stay there, 1 trust. Respectfully,
Jso. -J. DARGAN.
