UNION SOUTH CAROLINA APRIL 24.1896. $1.50 A YEA it TILLMAN WILL NOT BOLT Thinks the Silver Element Will Con' trot thelhlrago Convention. A reporter for the Cineinnatti En quirer had an interview with Senatoi Tillman before his great speeen ir the campaign for free silver at Lex iftgton, Ky., in which he was rathei emphatic as to the control of the convention at Chicago by the friends of silver. The reporter says: Mr. Tillman is a man of striking personality. Full of fire and energy, and he possesses an inex'.taustible fund of humor and cleverness in illus trating his views. "I ano greatly pleased with the course of the Enquirer in defending tha interests of the people, said the Senator, "A large majority of the mctripolitan press are against silver and with the other fellows, and it is gratifying to know that there is one paper which has courage to speak out." "What is the nurpose ofyourpres ent tour Senator?" *?T am An mv wa? Wauf fft a meeting of Democrat* in convention at Denver next week. There isn't much of the Democratic partj left oat there, but the Populist made so many mistake* and had so manp irresponsible men in command that they have lost their grip. I have believed for several years that the only salvation of this country is a union of the West and South against the East: It is time we begin to protect ourselves from the wily New England ers, and I want to extend the hand of fellowship from the people of South Carolina to those of the great west." "Ilavc you an idea that the silver element in the Democratic party will control the nationai convention at Chicago?" "I uont think that there is any doubt dbont it." "But suppose thqy.. dont* and the gold men make the platform, what then?,' "I will not concede that such an event will happen, but. in 'the event that they do, there will be a split in the party, that's sure. Tee peopled South Cerolina will not stand any foolishness. We trill be for a silver ujae in the Democratic party if pos sible, but if notwill vote for him out of some other party." "It is said that your colleague. Senator lrby, is leading a fight to keep the Democrats of your State in the party ranks, and w bile he wishes ilicm to favor free silver, yet he wants to bind them to support the nominees of the Chicago convention." "Thats true; but he isn't making any headway* He offered a resolu tion to that effectin the mcetingof the State committee last Tuesday, and got a votes out of&l. The people of Savuth Carolina can take care of that matter themselves, and they wil not bind their delegates to support the nominee of the national convention on a gold platform.' "Upon what do you base your "piutati that the sliver men will con* trol the National Democratic Conveniiou?" "I believe Luai the South will be solid for siluer, as well as the west urn! some of the Central States. The wave is on the increase, it' you can the papers to tell ?he truth." '/Who is your choice for President the silver ticket?" ''Some good man who has buttled for silver. It wont do to take one of the fellows who falls in with the title. We want everybody to be with us, but those who arc nominated must have been all right." "Suppose Cleveland or Carlisle were nominated on the Democratic ticket?" Then its all up with the Democratic party. Neither of them could carry a State in the Union, and Cleveland would have hard stork to jfet a county. I tell you I wow hi (further vote for good republican tln.n Carlisle, even John Sherman, be .cause shcirmun had been consistent mm! Carlisle has not." "Is there any t'lnuKy of a split in the Republican party?" "1 think that the five Senators jyho pf fused to vote for the tariff' bill, iCtwUA Teller, Mantle, Dubois and Canwnv, >v i 11 surely bolt thcii party ijfa gold platform is made at St. Louis" "Don't you fib;!}k that if the gold iinen are beaten at they .ill .bolt?" "Vcs, I do, and lot them go. W o vWi)l & v/.o the name and the good will, which i* v. vth a, heat), cap ?j?j'ally 'n S'.-iith. j tinuiv convinced I. . iliat .nilvcr will win the fight. I wi be a delegate at large from my Stat timl if some of the present Senator don't leave the Chicago conventio with me if a gold platform is adoptee I pity them. They will lose thei ' jobs. This is true of Vest an 1 UrocKrcll of Missouri. If they don leave the gold wing of the Deinocrati r party in that event, the people c j their State will leave them." "II ave you never rcgretten an part of your speech in the Senate i > which you were so severe in denuncia tion of Cleveland and Carlisle?" 1 "Not one word of it. I have re coived not less than *20,000 letter from every State in the Union com 1 mending iny course. The people ar > with ino and so are some of th ! Senators, if they are not afraid t * say so. Not long ago a well k no wi Southern Senuior who isagcntlemai 1 and an orator, came to me anil said ! Tillman, your speech was all right but don't you think you might hav left some things unsaid, for instance that reference to manure on a pitch fork was a little rough? I reply t ' this: 'Mv dear sir, my farmers in th South understand that illustratioi better thsn anything 1 could said and they appreciate the aptness o the illustration." "In your short experience in th< Senate, whom do you consider tin ablest Ccmocrat?" "Vest of Missouri. lie is a grea man and fearless man. Morgan am Daniel are also very able, and Dav< Hill is a shrewd parliamentarian.' "Who is the greatest Republican?' "To tell you the turth, none of th members of that party have im pressed me very much.

I have had as many letter* from Colorado as any other State and they all roast Walcott; beside* Wolcott is inclined to stick to hii party no matter now the St, Loui: convention treats the eilverquestion.' "Whom do yo think the Republicans will nominate for President?'' "It looks like McKinley. Th< party is going to try and sidetrack the silver for the tariff, but it won't go. The people will not be deceived in that way." When asked if lie were a Presidential candidate. Senator Tillman turned the quention off with a laugh, and declared that he was simply on a mission of peace and good will lbi good money and govcamnent. lit talked entertainingly about the Soutli and told bow he had overthrown the old South Carolina office holding aristocracy. lie said tlpit Jtis Stat* had alwavsiial the misfortune tc have only the one party and a lit tit ring had parcelled the olHeos oui among th(anselves tor many years The abettors ol"negro domination hat forced the white peoplo to unite, ant all it was necessary to do was to natn< a ticket and all the white people hat to do was to vote tor it without an> question. his fight ngainsf tin ring he was opposed l?y every pijpei in the 5*tate except a lew eountiy weeklies.

Tl\eif Wtttgrt^Hions \yere soon >\[ \yifls bbd the result was il?ai those ministers hud to leave Jicir charges and seek new flelds. On lie other hand, we can refer with pleasure (? I)r, C. W.

The mission of a minister of God is to teach tiie bible and inculcate religious convictions in the hearts of his fellowman. Now, if there is a grain of religion in politics we have not as yet been able to discover it. In fact, there is mors devfi in politics than anything else we know of. Therefore, when a preacher takes upon himself tlie dual task of expounding the Gospel and engineering a political cam* paign, the best thing that we can recommend is that his congregation hold weekly prayers for the salvation of their pastorV soul. Ho certainly needs prayer. Thereis no sense in a church taking up a collection to send missionaries to China, when the man who fills the sacred desk b himself so. sadly in need of converting over anew.

It may be charged that it is out of i place tor a political newspaper to advise ministeras as to their duty. But we do not assume to criticise those clergymen wrho confine themselves to the Bible; but we do claim that we have just as mnoh right to counsel political preachers as: such preacltere have to meddle in politics.! We do not tnaen to be offensive, or to personate any one; but if one of our little stones whistles too close to the ear 01 certain ministers of our county, they art1 at liberty to dodge; and, ns Sam Jones siys, if one of our rocks strikes them,; wiry, they can Just yelp.?-Piedmont Headlight. ? ? -??? v Buy rwiaa uw oa.
