DR. STOKES IN EXPLANA
TION.
Editor Watchman and Southron: In
the interest of fairness and honorable ;
dealing, I ask you to publish the sub- ;
joined letter. This letter was refused
by tbe Sumter Herald after the editor
of that paper bad misrepresented me in j
his comments cpon my former letter. ?
Not content with refusing to let me set j
myself right before tbe same audience
that read hie charge and comments, he j
refused to return my manuscript upon j
tbe ground that it bad been destroyed. ?
Why there should be such unseemly i
haste in destroying manuscript, I will
leave the public to judge.
Here is the letter whicb The Herald 11
refused to publish:
Editors Sumter Herald: Permit a j
word in reply to your comments oo my j
last letter You assume that there is j
something inherently wrong in one hav- j1
iog an organ. Your ratber implied i
that my denial of your charge against j 1
was an admission that some discredit
would attach to my having an organ if |
such were the fact. I made no such ad
mission. I make no such admission now. ?!
If any man have convictions so strong j 1
that he is willing to maintain a paper to i I
propagate those convictions, there is no ! *
law sacred or secular to binder him. j :
On tbe contrary, zeal that is willing to ?1
spend and be spent in defense ofr
its convictions, is commended the world | '
over. I did not set out to argue 1 1
this matter, however; butto impress
the fact which you seem unaccountably
to have overlooked, that I objected to
your charge simply and purely because
it was not true; and because it was not
true, it was an injustice to The Patriot j1
and to me?more to the editor of The
Patriot than to me.
In reply to my request for the j '
grounds of your charge that The Patriot j1
was my private organ, you refer in a j '
confused indistinct sort of way to state- j '
ments in other papers and vague 1 (
rumors, which you cannot even recall i(
the verbiage of. ]
Now, Mr. Editor, I ask in all frank- j
nees if you consider such unsupported : *
rumors and newspaper statements as i 1
evidence in any proper sense? would 1
you like to be tried upon such evidence? I
Would you think it justifiable not to say
cbristianlike to charge against you ?
true, all the ugly things said about yo..
in the papere and by rumor, because
forsooth your maligoer pretended be j
bad never seen any specific denial from '
you ? I
You saw fit to- refer to my being a
member of tbe church aod therefore
(you said) I ougbt to be truthful. You j
6aid you boped the people would believe ?,
me. Hope implies desire with expecta- ? \
tion. With strange inconsistency you i
went to work to discredit my denial, jc
In other words you set about to defeat :
what you said you desired and expect- ! *
ed.
You also said I was probably an offi- 1
cial member of tbe church. I don't
see what this has to do with the matter *
at issue ; out it is just as weii tc vje ,
accurate eveu in irrelevant matters.
I am only a private member ; while \
I see your name frequently iu .'he '
churcb papers in various official re?a- \
tioos. In this respect you have the ad- e
vantage of me But when you seek to :
discredit a private members of tbe same
churcb. while professing to do jusrice to
ali, and while professing to desire and
expect tbat private member will be be- ,
lieved, I think I have the advantage of i ;

Work Por the Constitutional
Convention.
Mr. Editor: I am do politiciao,
aud for this I thiok I am duly thankful
toan iudulgent Heaven. But now that
the Constitutional Convention is a set
tled and assured fact, it is proper for
us all to endeavor to make it as useful
and as beneficial to our State as possi
ble. All of us are eot and cannot be
delegates, and yet the humblest of us
may make some wise and wholesome
suggestion concerning new laws that are
needed. Will you allow me to contri
bute my mite V
First of all. I thiok the Convention
should enact a law something like this :
"The property or credit of the State
of South Carolina or of any County, or
any sub-division of the State, or pub
lic money from whatever source de
rived, shall not, by gift or loan be used
directly or indirectly in aid or main
tenance of aoy school or hospital or
other enterprise which is wholly or in
part under the direction or control of
any religious or sectarian denomination
or society."
This law will further the cause of
religious liberty, aod will compel the
churches to keep their hands out. of the
public porse.
Next, ws ought to have some wise
law concerning the establishment of the
whipping post as the means of punish
ment: for all minor offenses and petty
thefts. The idea of seodiog men ?
whito or black?ro a penitentiary, at a
large expense, for these small offenses
seems to me to border upon nonsense.
It has been clearly shown that the peni
tentiary experience does not reform the
petty thief. Fi**ty honest lashes, once
in two weeks, for two months, will go
far towards protecting the country I
against the inroads of those who now
seem to lock upon a trip to the peni- ??
tentiary about like others look upon a j
visit to Saratoga or Long Branch.
The divorce law needs mending, j
There is something like presumption in
the fact that South Carolina has been
trying to pose as more righteous than
the Bible. God says there is one of
fense which justifies divorce ; our laws
come in and say, No, God is wrong in j
this matter, and there shall be no
divorce for aoy cause. The result, as
I think I am able to show, 19 a whole
sale bigamy, and there are hundreds of
men in the State who now have two I
wives.
The method of inflicting capital
punishment needs revision. The object j
of capital punishment is to produce
death ; but not unnecessary bodily suf
fering, and some means should be used
which will produce death in the most
painless manner. To bang a man up
by the neck to die, as many do, from
strangulation, is the perfection of cruel- j
ty, a relic of barbarism. Ten grains of
morphine would do the work just as j
effectually, aod without the attendant
miseries of the gallows. the case of J
morphine eaters, who are proof agaiost
that drug, chloroform would accomplish
what the law contemplates. In fact,
since death is all that i* sought, I should I
be inclined to allow the criminal to .
choose one of a half dozen methods of :
producing death.
Our courts and their methods need re
vision ; buti I am not wise enough to
?ay in what way. I only know that ,
too many red-banded criminals have
gone free here in Suinter by the use of ;
quibbles a?d legal technicalities. In
fact, if a man has money and friends |
md an astute lawyer to plead his case, ;
the chances for hanging him are very
few. A case postponed from time to i
time virtually means acquittai, and the :
?o-called "important witness" who is
purposely absent, is daily robbiog the :
gallows of ^its prey. This fact is nur- ? .
Luring and perpetuating the lynch law, ?
and the people are no longer williog to ?
entrust a serious case to trial by jury. :
And trial by jury is a fraud, when j
the law requires that the verdict shall :
be unanimous. It is difficult to find I
twelve men who will agree 00 any one j
thing in law or religion. HeDce we j
bave so many continued cases. If the
jonveniion will decree that a majority
)f the twelve shall decide the issue, the
problem will be solved
These are some of the things that j
seem to need mending, and I hope our I
Soloos will give them due attention. {

Privateer Personais.
Privatker Township, S. C , Aug. 26, 95.
According the appointment, tbe Amuse
ment Club met at ex-Representative W. O.
Cain's on Friday night. There were some
changes made among the club officers. Tbe
following programme was rendered: .Music,
Messrs. Hampton Ramsey and Alva Mellett;
Reading, Mr. Walter S. Lynam ; Music, Dr.
Jobn H. Farman ; Music, Miss Olive Mellett.
Next "Spelling Bee" took place, Mr.
Hiott acted a3 "School Master" and ?hose
who took part were ranged in two lines.
Ooe word which thinned the ranksjwas tbe
innocent sounding "supersede." T'?e word
"prejudice" seem9 to have had a prejudice
against some of the members, as i: caused
them to miss. Araocg the other words
which downed some was "oligarchy," a
word which has become so celebrated in the
political literature of Carolina during tbe
last eight or teo years. Miss Mary White
Nettles carried off the honors of the occasion
in the spelling bee.
The next club meeting will be a special one
aud wiil take piace Friday night uext at the
Privateer Alliance Hall. The occasion will
be a debare for the Demorest prohibition
medal. Seen of our youag people?three
young ladies and four young men?expect to
enter the oratorical arena : the medal. An
admittance fee of ten cents wiil be charged
those who attend and the proceeds o;' the
evening will be devuted to temperance.
The ele tion last Tuesday in this township
was held at the Privateer Alliance Hall. The
names o? the managers have already appeared
in your columns.
Speaking of the recent election, ;t rosy be
mentioned here that your correspondent bus
an interesting old parapbiet relating to a
State election held over 50 years ago. This
veaerahle document gi*'?s the election law*
and a list of nil the election managers wi.o
were appointed for 1342. "Nettles'? Store:?
was the voting place for *h- section i:i those
long ago days and the managers appointed
were E. J. Pagh, Joseph Netties and W. W.
Bethur.".
Mr. Hiott expresses ibi- hope that the Con
stitutional Convention v. ii; put in ihe organic
laws of the State teat it will punishable
crime for any one to start a "chain letter."
Many o: your readers wiil donbtltss agree
with this hope. These letters are not only a
raisaoce, outran imposition, as well and
seems a pity that such means should be used
to gain money for any worthy object, expe
cially one of a religions nature.
After prayer meeting last Thtirsdav Mr.
Hiott baptized three converts, one of whom
was a little grand-daughter of one of Bethel'?
deacons.
Mr. Marion Cain has taken charge of a
commissary and saw mill near Mayesville.
Messrs. R. C. Tisdale and W. E. Kolb were

day School at tbe Interdenominational Coun

It was mentioned in this correspondence
some time ago that one of Privateer farmers,
who was 27 years old, had never danced.
Another case even more remarkable is that
of Mr. J. William Geddiogs, who is forty
years old, hasa wife and seven children and
has neven taken part in a dance.

SHILOH, S. C, Aug. 23, i 335.
Crops of ali kind in this section sre una- '
sua'ily good, considering the comparatively
?mail amount of bought fertilizers used.
Early corn is safe. The tobacco crop is fair. :
having improved beyond the expectations of |
the most sanguine, after the grasshoppers ;

farms have been completely riddled by the j
worms within the last ten dav9.
The Free Will Bapti3t Sunday School pic
nie at Friendship last week (Thursday) was
well conducted, the recitations good and the j
addresses by Prof. Blackwell and Messrs. (
Truluck and DuBose interesting.
The Union Methodist Sunday School pic j
nie at this place too, on the 17th, was a com- !
plete success. Ali tbe Sunday Schools (four)
under tbe Rev. Mr. Wright's charge, New
Eion, Pine Grove, Nazareth and Shiloh, were j
well represented and the children did credit
to themselves and their teachers. The recita
fions were good, and the addresses by three I
roung gentlemen from abroad, whose names ?
:his writer did not learn, were both interest- 1
ing and instructive. The music rendered by '
Misses Mamie Wright, Lula Hawkins, Annie j
fohrison and Viola Lavender was much en- 't
oyed by all lovers of good music. About
ive hundred people were in attendance. Not
ripple of anything of a disturbing or un- '
:>!pa3ar;t nature was observed. Eatables of 1
ihe hest in superabundance, w*a spread on
ivery hand.
Mr. J. D. FriersoOj to the great joy ot his '
'riends and relatives, returned from Florida j
resterday, after an absence of two or more

m wer was, "Oh, we had ? powerful time 1
as! night at our distracted meeting: we con- !
^ertM six people am^saacti Sed one, and
a a comparatively remote part of this !
county, on a quiet little farm lives an old!
veteran of as much bravery, coolness and de- j
termination in times of danger, or when such ?
qualities are in demand, as any -:oldier ever j
possessed. He served his couotry faithfully |
in the Seminoie Indian war in 1836. He ?
volunteered aod served in the war with Mex- !
ico from 1846 to 1848, with credit to himself
and his couotry. In 1861, when a call was I
made for volunteers, this gallant old soldier
responded promptly. I enlisted under him j
the day be was elected captain of Company j
G, 20th Regiment, S. C. V. When the meet- I
ing was called for the purpose of organizing j
this company he was on time, but was one of j
the most quiet, unostentatious men at the ;
meeting and when pointed out to me as the ,
man for the position of captcin, (for I had |
ever seen or known of him before) I could !
not conceal my surprise and disappointment. !
He was a fine officer and was sooo promoted :
to tbe position of Major, being the choice of a |
large majority of meo in Col. L. M. Keitt:s
regiment. When the latter fell, during a |
desperate, and I might add, a reckless charge ;
in Virginia (of course, by promotion he be- ;
came Colonel as the Lteut?nant-Colonei, O. :
M. Dantzler, was also killed) he walked to j
the front quickly but coolly, beine already
aware that a successful charge was simply j
impossible, and gave the command, "right !
about, double-quick, march." But only a
minority escaped : rbe command came too !
late and the subject, Col. Stephen M. Boykin ;
was wounded and taken a prisoner io a few :
minutes. Col. 3oykin lives a few miies from 1
Spring Hill on his little farm. He was never
an aspirant to office, but is a natural born
military man. He is now quite an aged gen
tlemen, bat moves about as nimbly as lots of :
much younger men, ?nd says he would enlist ;
in another war if his services were needed
? mention these facts now, because ? think
we ought to show gratitude to, and apprecia
tion of such characters while they are living j
?oot wait to 'neap it all on thtrm after they
are gone, as is the custom generally.

Mr. W. W. Fort for h number of yearssec- !
tion master at Mayesville, has entered suit for |
S'20.000 against the AtiaRtic Coast Line. The j
suit is for damages on account of injuries re- ?
ceived in a wreck in 1389. Mr. Fort vas ou a ;
materia! ir.?n going to repair a wreck when I
his train was wrecked and he was injured.
Tobacco has been arriving since last week at
the warehousefor the opening sale. There will ?
be lots of it on the ?oor to-morr-jw. ?
Manager Brogdon has a corps of first class j
assistais and the warehouse nere will te run :
for all it is worth.
The idea of running 300 yards with a reel !
and throwing stream of water ?n 3S seconds
is rather s'artling to the local firemen, but j
they ?re roti ifig daunted. They have made i
up their minds to go to Atlanta, and if the j
run has to be made in less than 38 seconds, j
they wiii do it.
The residence of Mr. Moses Green, which j
is nearing completion is one of the most con- j
veulent and complete in ail its appointments |
erected in this city tor several years. It j
takes its place on the list of the handsomest j
private residences of Sumterand is one which
may be pointed out with pride. Mr. E.J.
Dunne has superintended the work on the
house and every detail in the construction
bas been finished in 'he best style of tbe
builder's art. !
The advance in leather has obliged maou- \
facturers to make a corresponding advance in ?
the price of shoes, with probably, the only !
exception of W. L Douglap, who, notwith
standing the high price of leather, will con
tinue at the old prices, and give a better shoe
than ever before. Tbe receru additions to
hie already large factory, makes his plant the
largest in the world devoted to manufactur
ing an exclusive line of shoes.
A petitioo has been circulated and signed
by ail tbe business men of Sumter requesting
General Manager J. R. Kenley of tbe Atlanta
Coast Line to arrangt the new schedule on the
M. ? A. Mid C. S. & N. railronds so that the
trains from Pregnaiis via harlin City and
Lone Star and from St. Paul's will arrive in
Sumter in the moraiog. A morning train
over these roads will be of great benefit to
Sumter and it is to be hoped that tbe desired
schedule will be put on.
