m
The following is a brief summary of
the Senatorial campaign speeches from
day to day.
TI10 Union Meeting.
Tho orowit of 400 that tlio Senatorial
candidates spoko to ut Union was the
most umlomonstrntivo that tho speakers
have yet been confronted with.
Evorybody was at Union to listen.
Thoj' accorded oaoh speaker au attentive
hearing, though thov did show
more favor to irby and Evans iu the
Way of applause than to the others.
MoLaurin aired Irby's official record
while in Congress at some length, aud
theu closed his speech with an exposiu:.
i. liV
kji uih uirm views.
?.laytield, after denyiny that ho was
in any oombiuo against MoLaurin,
turned hie attention to the latter's tarift
policy, and then aftor dealing with the
lumber^-H^imd- -Cotton schedules as
0^?McLaurin, declared that
tha latter w as trying to build up theso
three industries at the exponse of the
remainder of the State. After finishing
with the tariff issuo, he made very cloar
his objections to the dispensary and the
remedy of local options which ho proposed.
Irby bogan by jollying the crowd
with his jokes about political daddies.
He again asserted that he had rnude
Evans governor, and declared he made
a hotter 0110 than the incumbent, who
was "as weak as circus lemonade."
Colonel Irby tlion answered the attack
on his congressional record,
which, ho said, stood either as a monument
to his integrity or his dishonesty.
He was proud of his record, he do
clared, and would lenvo it as a
heritage to his children. He explained
bis appurcut absentisui
on tlio ground that many of tho
votes taken were on motions to adjourn
nt*i other motions of no more importance.
On other motions he retrained
from voting in order to break
the quorum, as other Demoorats were
doing, lie had not absented himself
any oftener than Henators Hampton
and Butler had, lie declared. He then
proceeded to attack McLaurin'ft record
and closed amid applause.
Former (lovernor Evans was greeted
with applause. Ho, too, joked with the
.... 1 ?
VtV?1M III! I All HIMHfl II* II lltV tl niUlU"
ment tlmt ho was his political thuhly,
said that Irby was not doing his son
right in this campaign. However, when
he was elected to the Senate ho would
make tho "old man" (Irby) his private
secretary.
Mr. Evans then very coucisly reviewed
tho taritV question from nulliiication
to tho present day and declared
that every Southern farmer should favor
free trade. .Mr. Evans was cheered
throughout and at tho end of his
speech.
O. Walton Whitman, a would-be
Senator, desired to speak along with
tho other candidates, but ho had not
complied with the rules, and therefore
ho was not entitled to speak. Hut after
the regulars had finished he introduced
himself and proceeded to haranguo tho
people so long as they would listen.
The Spartanburg Meeting.
At Spartauburg u determined effort
was made to howl down McLaurin, but
Chairman Wilson quieted tho crowd.
S. (i. Mayliold was tho first spoaker.
IIo began by denying that ho was in a
combine to compass McLaurin'sdefeat.
IIo had hoard, lie said, that ho was in
tho race t? advertise himself prepara
tory to ruioing for(lovernor next year.
This, he a^' ured his auditors, was absolutely
fal e, and he was doing all ho
could to seeuro the nomination of t-'enator.
He then went 011 to express his
esteem for Honntor McLaurin as a man,
but onnosed Ilim nn Ilia vinu-u nf ???
tional questions.
Ho also explained at length his dis
pensarv views, and took up the tariff,
aud in his speech said Mounter MeLaurin
was a good reformer but not a
Democrat.
Irby was tho next spoakor, and he
worked in, to the amusement of tho
crowd, tho political daddy feature, lie
further on ia his sj eoch.made the assertion
that Kllerbo, Neal ami Gonzales,
if they had their way, would put negro
labor in the cotton mills of tho State.
He then followed this statement with a
touching word pieturo of the hnp|>y
condition of the mill operatives in the
Piedmont, and drew a comparison of
what it would be should negro labor be
introduced in the factories.
Speaking of his record, Col. Irby laid
stress on the faet that he had always
opposed boltiug.
| "There nro going to bo two parties
s- in this State, a Democratic and a liepublican
party, and there is the leader."
pointing to McLaurin, declared Col.
Irby. "Ho is laying tho egg that will
hatch a full-fledged Republican party."
He concluded with an appeal to the
peoplo to stand by Democracy.
Fx-Goveruor F.vans led off with his
tariff for revenue only speech. Ho assorted
that Mcfjuurin's Republican
tariff views would never be accepted
by the people of this Stato. McLaurin,
ho said, claimed that he and Tillman
mood together on tho tar ill'. Ho said
ho didn'theliovo Tillman held thosnine
tariff viows, l?ut if ho did he could not
coiuo before tho pcoplo of this State
t and win 011 that inane alone.
I He then referred to .Mr. MoLnurin as
I a "sapsuckor on a limb" nnd declared
A he wftH the hardest mnn to pin up 0:1 an
issue ho had ever encountered, He was j
^ continually shifting his views, lie us
sorted
Mr Evans said ho didn't believe in
a tariff. Ho was for freo trade with a
direot tax to supply tho necessary rove
nne for running tho government.
Mr. F '.vans again expressed tho hopes
that the factions would cease their
fight and unite on the Democratic tar 11
* prinoiule. (Applause.)
m Senator Mcl uurin said ho had been
W called a Republican by his opponeu:
f Hcjflung tho cinthi t back in their to
L and declared that lie had carved t .
V people u? /. ttornoy-Uenoral, us Con I
gressnmu and oh United States Senator
too faithfully u :d tu long for this slur
against him t > be believed. He owed all
tnat be was to the people of the State i
and he would never be false to their in* i
terest.
Sineo Colonel Irby had brought up
the negro mill labor quostion, he said
he wanted to assert most iiositively
that ho was opposed to negro opera- i
tires iu factories. So mueh was lie in
favor of cm: loving white labor wherever
he could that ho rented his farms out
t% white tcunnts at a loss price than he
could get from negroes.
In concluding his speech. Senator <
Mof aurin declai ed he was unalterably
apposed to the direct, tax a? proposed
hlf 1\1 r Kvnnu If ? ilivnof .? v tvuvA > <?
posed, lie said it would be n dauger to ,
the mill operatives, for oheaper pauper \
labor would be brought iu to take factory
laborers' places.
Senator McLaurin was appladed wlion j
he concluded.
The Cherokee Meeting.
Cherokee's meeting was held at Gaffnoy,
ami about fiOO heard the senatorial |
candidates. The meeting was orderly
and pleasant.
Irby was the first speaker, and aftor
expressing his pleasure at being prosout,
he proceeded to correct that portion
of his Spartanburg speeok where
he said that he declared Gonzales, Ellerbe
and Neal favored negro labor in
cotton mills. His speech was misconstrued,
unintentionally, he know, by ,
the reporter, he said. What ho did say,
he declared, was that in favoring the |
election of McLaurin, Gonzales, Ellerbe
nnd Neal were indirectly favoring t
the building up of a Republican party
iu this State, and that should the Republicans
gain strength hore, the tendenoy
would be to substitute negro
labor in the mills. He know that Gonzales
had opposed putting negroes in
cotton mills, ho added, etc.
After completing this correction, Col.
Irby said that all the candidates owed
him a debt of gratitudo. Evans he had
made a Governor, He was his boy,
and he didn't deny him.
E\uus: "I deny you, though."
Colouol Irby, proceeding, denied !
that there was any combine against
McLaurin; declared all talk that na- '
tional issues should bo discussed was
buncombe, aud asserted that the real
issue was whether or not a Republican /!
party should be started in the Stato.
John Gary Evans didn't talk about
political daddies, because the people
were not interested in that kind of talk.
Ho said that ho "became nearer being j
Irby's political daddy than ho does
mine, for I voted for him for the United
States Senator, and if ho had behaved
IlililHidf he'll linvn hnnti lliorn " <1.>
clured Evans. "He has been ilia worst
enemy."
Mr. Evans referred to his candidacy
last year, aud said he was defeated on
account of the lies and innuendoes told
by men who called themselves gentlemen.
Mr. McLauriu was going over tho
State, said Mr. Evans, crying that a
combine had been formed against him.
This was nothing but the sympathetic
act, Mr. Evans averted, for every man
in the race wanted tho office. This
light was ono of priuciplo and one in
which conservatives una reformers
could unite, "if you vote for the man
who has turned his back on the reform
movement, you admit that you
have laid aside principle and given
place to animosity," said Mr. Evans in
appealing to the conservatives.
Senator McLauriu was the next
speaker and ho said the question of negro
labor in cotton mills was unjustly
dragged into this discussion. It had no
part in this campaign. For himself he
favored white labor, wherever it could
be employed in preference to negro labor.
lie preferred white tenants to negro
tenants, and employed them, he
said.
Taking up tho tarilVbill Sonator McLauriu
showed what Southern interests
he had been contending for. lie had a
box of mono/.ite mined near here, and
explained that the duty he ami other
Southern Senators had secured on it
would raise the price considerably.
Mr. Muyliehl held tho crowd for I
twenty minutes, with a hurried exposition
of his views on tho dispensary and
the tariIV. In that tune he could not 1
elucidate as much as he would have 1
liked, but while he spoke he was listened
to attentively and cheered when he i
finished. I
The < 1 roeiivlllo Meet lag.
The Senatorial campaign meeting
here was quite large. The evidences
of favoritism on the part of some wore
marked. At the outset it looked as
if Senator McLauriu was going to have
trouble to get an audience. It was
hardly an attempt to howl down?certainly
nothing like the good old IHirj
wurwhoop but the exhibition was the
exuberance of some of Irby's and
Evan's friends.
(Sovernor 11 vans was t li?> lirst speaker,
uud lie spoke for an hour and was very !
cordially roceived. 11 is entire speech
was on 1 he tariff issue, jumping on McT.anrin's
views and the rice, cotton and
lumber schedules specilieully. He said
lie was poorer todav than when he
went into the 'lovornor's olliee notwithstanding
rumors.
Henator Mel.auvin spoko next, and
lie said any man who misrepresented
his position as Mr. K vans did, was in
his opinion unworthy of confidence.
I here was some attempt at interruption
lmt it was quieted down, lie said it
took all three of hisopponeuts to handle
him.
In 1NSS he advocated primaries and
the rule of the pcoplo. and in |HlK> ho
did the 'a ne ile believed there was
need of a political awakening.
Mcl nuii i went on to say the Colleton
plan was started m the int.west of
I'ivans and was for t' e purpose ol letting
a few thou. a..d \oters run the nomination
of the (Jovernor. lie said that such
things drew the factional lilies.
Mcl.nurin ro le<l up his sleeves and
went to pounding away at the facts relative
to his views on the tariff, and insisted
that he was not and never had
hceen a protectionist, and that his
whole tight was to havohis State recognized
as an ini *grul part of his country.
Mr. Evans under his direct tax plan
would roduco the labor to a pauper
labor by his excessive tax. ile wanted
everyone to understand that the neeossary
expenses could not be raised exco|>t
with incidental protection. He
doubted if the Dingley bill would raise
enough to run the government.
He related bow the bill was prepared 1
and how it was rushed through the
House, and his whole purposo was to 1
make tin* bill non-sectional.
He was the hr*t meinbor to op#n up
tho question of free bagging ami lies,
ile said he would not bo Senator except :
upon the endorsement of his people in I 1
a primary. Ho weut over tlio cotton I
schedule at length and said in the !
Mouse committee every Republican op- '
posed Macon's cottuii duty amendment,
Just ns sure as this country remnius on
the single stumlurd uud Mexico has a
single basis, Mexico will send short
staple hero unless there is tome barr
i*. Ho then went to the lumber
schedule.
.Mr. McT.aurin conAned liiinffalf to '
further explanation of his votes and was
oil this topic when alinonbhed flia *:i's
hour was up. The essenuui )?oiut irt
MoLaurin's speech was the non-factional
idea which he urged shofild lie recognized,
as there was no need for factions
now. i
May held jumped ol. McLnuriu's tariff j
views and insisted that McLattrrn's (
ideas could not do this people any good.
MoLaurin caunot complain of being
milled a protectionist, because to agreo i
with them in part was to agree in prin- ]
tuple. MoLaurin had done more mischief
for the time in the Senate than
any man ever in that body from this 1
State. If South Carolina was ready to <
t;o in Republican linos then McLnuriu's ,
views are proper. ,
He then jumped on MoLaurin for de- ,
fending the Tillman-Latimer bill. Ho
i elated his anti-dispensary views, eta. (
Col. Irbv read a tolocram from Sen
itor Tillman denying that lie said th'i
ace was between Evans and McLaurin.
McLaurin was nothing bnt a politician
and went with the political winds. ,
lie said he was ttyp friond of the poor
Mid the rich man and would undeceive ;
his friends. McLaurin's record was
higher than his. McLaurin, ho said,
joined overy party that came along
It has been alleged that ho proposed to
Strait and Latimer to organize a separate
party and go in with the Populist. ,
lie would get a certificate to that
ullect.
McLaurin denied this charge.
Irby?"All right, I'll get the oertili- ,
cate.
Speaking to the eomservatives, lit
said that McLaurin had deceived all
his friends and the conservatives would
name next.
Col. Irby went on to fully explain his
views, and said the poor man was
put on n par with the convict and black
man. i
When his time was up he was urged
to go on. i
Col. Irby said ho would rather not
go over his time, although asked so i
to do. ]
Chairman Pramett read regrets from i
Mr. Duncan and then adjourned the i
meeting and nunounced that Mr. Whit- i
man was present and ho then spoke to i
a small crowd. i

.Mr. iWuviieltl sunt senator .Aici.aurin s 1
position 011 tho dispensary was wrong,
and was criticising his views, when tlio ]
hitter asked that if it was true ho was
not in a combination to tight him, why
did he single him out from an attack on '
his dispensary views, when Mr. Evans,
the father of tho dispeusary law, sat
near by. Later Mr. Mavliold stated
he would say nothing more about Senator
McLaurin, as lie had committed
political suicido at Greenville. Tho
Senator said he supposed Mr. Mavxield
made 110 mention of Irby or Evans, as
he regarded them as being also dead.
Mr. Evans said some of tho candi
dates criticised the dispensary because '
the law is unpopular here, but as lor
himself he considered he had no regrets
for his advocacy of the law, and slill
considered it the best solution of the
liquor problem. Mr. Evans claimed that
matters were reaching a peculiar state
when Governor Ellerbe said he would
use the machinery of his administration
against Irby and Evans if they opposed
McLaurin. As Governor Ellerbe
was absent, Senator McLaurin
denied for him that ho over made such
a stutement. Mr. May field said Mr.
Ellerbe told him so and that it' he denied
it, ho was guilty of a deliberate
falsehood.
Ex-Senator Irbv stated thai mild
prove by Smith Thompson. 0/ anburg,
that Senator MoLaurin , .. .i.ised
lo vote for Butler for Senator against
Tillman. McLaurin denied tins and
said the alleged conference was not
ibout senatorial matters, but on other
questions.

lietiring President Keitt read his annual
address. It was full of Alliance
doctrine, and the matter of the publication
of the Cotton Plant was thoroughly
dealt with, and about, the 1st of September
Mr. Crews will have step down
and out of the editorship. A member
of the Alliance, in speaking of the matter,
according to the Register, said
that the condemnation of the editor in
his course did not mean that tlio Alliance
endorsed tho candidates he might
bo lighting, but on tho contrary it was
douo to emphasize tho romark of the
president that tho Alliance was to bo
conducted on a nonpartisan basis.
Tho following resolution was unanimously
adopted:

and an additional tax upon our industry;
that we ask the railroad commission

in reducing the rate on fertilizers
and other commodities.
A resolution was introduced and
adopted, heartily endorsing Congressman
.Stokes' measure in Congress in
reference to the reduction of salaries ol
United States officials.
The Alliance will meet in Columbit
again next year.
While in Charlotte on July So Sena
tor Tillman was interviewed by a re
porter of tlio Charlotte News on th<
Senatorial campaign in this State. li<
claimed to bo entirely neutral and do
dared ho would take no baud in tk<

"Senator," he was asked, "who hat
the best chance to win in the coming
Senatorial election ?"
"Well that is hard to say. MoLiaurir
has a good record and has many friends.
F.vaus seems to be gaining strengtl
daily, and as for tlio other candidates, J
don't think there is any show."
"Then you think that it has narrow
ed down to two, do you-?"
"That is my idea exactly. Irby hai
never had the ghost of a show. Mb

Conquering Prejudice*.
Prejudices, which are from within,
cause tnore poverty than calamities,
which are from without. Many a man
whose life has been disturbed by ptiyslcal
disaster has been brought to destitution
by prejudices, which are the
| thieves of mental and spiritual trcas|
ure, us procrastination In the thief of
j time. We pity the feeble creature who
has been prejudiced against apples by
' an nntoothsome crab apple; but those
who are by no means feeble-minded
have been prejudiced ngr.lnst sentiment
by sentimentality, against emotion by I I
emotionality. And yet, without sentl- i
ment one would not bo susceptible to
noble and tender feeling; without emotion
thought would never he "In n I
glow." He who conquers a prejudice s
enlarges his borders, and recovers '
ninny stolen goods.

After several years of exorbitantly <
large profits the manufacturers of
bicycles have been compelled to very 3
largely reduce their prices. The public
actually refused to longer pay ?100
for a machine which can he built for a
oue-quarter that amount.
A few makers saw this somo time '
ago and put on the market cheaper .
machines at very greatly reduced
prices which so out into the business <
of the higher priced manufacturers
that in pure self-defense they were *
compelled to bid good-bye to their old
high prices.
Why should not the same thing occur
with type-writing machines? They
no doubt cost considerably less to produce
than bicycles, and yet some of
them are selling at the ridiculously m
high price of ?100. It is fair to infer S
that a machine which sells at ?50 costs jj
close to ?15 to manufacture.
If a few large department stores in jjj
New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Chi- N
cago, etc., would arrange for large |
quantities to be manufactured for them ft
by somo one outside of a Trust the
' prices would come down to reasonable 5
figures as have those of bicycles.
