HASKELLISM In CLARENDON.
Haskelhsm doesn't thrive il Clarendon.
Very few men Of any prominence nave SO
far taken part or interest IN the movement.
Mr.. B. Presley Barron seems to be the rec
oonized header Of the split in this county.
Last Wednesday afternoon he and q few o,h-
ers, probably as many as seven or eagnt,
met near the Furstenburg ball and seleeteo
himself, ". Scott Harvln, W. VI. Plowoen'
P G.. Benbow, and j. q. Mcknight to go 70
the Haskell meeting in Columbia. The last
three named did not attend the Manning
meeting, nor did they 60 to Columbia eltn-
or. We tried our best to find out who were
present at the Manning meeting, but Mr. u!
Barron declined to give as the names. we
regret this, as it is our custom to puohsh
the names of delegates that meet II coun'
ty convention. They, probably, have some
reason, however, for not letting us have the
names. In addition to Messrs. Barron and
Hsrvin, j. J. Broughton, S. NJ. haynsworth'
and w. A. Sparks were the persons VINO
vent to Columbia TO represent TINS county.
What they did will be found on the fonfth
mage Of this weeks issue.
We publish below interviews with large
number Of gentlemen from this county, ana
they voice the sentiment OF the county. IL
was thought at one time best to Call meet
ing of all the clubs to meet any possloie
danger that might arise. but the movement
in the county aud state appears TO De OWN
ding so fast that it viii not be done. The
clnbs will be called together soon, however,
@bnt not from fear of Haskellsn. We had q
GREAT many more interviews, but they are
unayoidably crowded out
MIR. D. I Burgess, Of Sandy Grove, says:
WAS a Bratton man until the Democratic
nartv made their nominations and the par
~ mt forward Democratic ticket. Since
then 7 feel bound to support Tilsman and
his whole ticket. Every Democrat shouid
turn out to the polls and support the regular
Democratic nominees.
MIR. S, P. Holiday. supervisor OF regis, 5,
tration, says: I have been conservative all
the way through the campaign; l dld not
advocate the cause of any candidate, DuS
s;nce TIllnap has received the nomination,
think it is tie duty of every Democrat IN
The State to support him and the Who!e
Damocrasic ticket. further think tnat II
10 the ,duty of every Democrat to oppose
VIII all his might this independent move
ment TINT has been thrust upon the people
Iv;fborit their consent. In so dong the
wb;te people will be doing what was taught
them by Ham pton, Hagood, Haskell, and
others. because they warned us and taught
ms to repudiate any and every independent
movement.
Mr s. E. Cal1ell, member OF the hrm
cf D. ". Alderman i Co., OF Aleolu' says
that he was opposed to the nomination OF 8.
2 TSIlman. but when the Democranc party
{ IN convention assembled nominated ME-
Tillman it put stop to ony turtner oPPosi-
tion from him. He further says tnaS ne IS
not in sympathy with the HasSei move.
ment. and can see no good to result from II
=, the Democracy of South Carolina.
Mr. Thomas Wilson, one OF the largest
mill men in this section of the State Says
ts,as he opposed B. B. Tllman on prlnciple,
and did not consider him proper man for
Governor Of South Carolina, but the Demo-
cratic convention met and decided 70 noml-
nate Capt Tillman, and as the opposition
10 him did not withdraw from the conVen-
ion on account OF the irregularities that
Z existed. he feels bound to discountenance
an ;nSenendent ticket now. The Straight
outs, If they disapproved OF the methods
resoried to IN the convention, shouio nave
withdrawn from the September conVennon
and pRe forward ticket, but not having
done so and having participated IN the
proceedings of the convention they are
bound by the September convention Wheth-
er regular or irregular.
n L Will cnnnnTt tho
regular Democratic ticket. and thinks the
Haskell movement will make little headway
in Clarendon.
Mr.. ". NJ. Plowden, foreman Of the grand
iury and one Of the commissioners OF the
federal election. said: I Iopposed Tillman,
but after knowing him to be the choice OF o
large nsjority Of the Democratic voters of
the state, and after his nomination at the
September convention, expect to support
that ticket if any, and regard the ticket with
Col. Haskell at its head as being unfortunate
and likely to result disastrously to the DEM
ecratic party in the state.
Nr. James E. Davis said: en- satisfied
that the Haskell movement is wrong IN toto,
and is calculated to do great harm in the
State, and every good and true patriot will
and must vote the regular Democratic ticket
nominated on tie 10th Of September.
Mr. N. B. Barrow says that ne is not N
favor Of an independent ticket. He be-
lieyes that every Democrat is bound by the
decision Of the September convention, and
those opposing said decision are boilers.
Capt. J. C. Manning, of Fulton. says: I
am opposed to Tllman and his methods,
and cannot bring myself to support him or
his ticket. I think the Haskell movement
unfortunate.
Capt. j. j. Conyers, Of the Fork, in re-
sponse to an inquiry from Us, said that he
is opposed to the Haskell movement, and
that he expects to support the regular DEM
ocratic nominees.
Mr.. W. D. Gamble, prominent farmer
and merchant Of New Zion, said that he
was opposed to Tllman, and the methods
resorted to by his followers. but when the
comfy conventions were called he partici-
pated, and by his act recognized those bod
leg as Democratic conventions. He now
feels bound as Democrat to stand by and
support the regular nominees OF the Sep
tember State convention, and that no good
can result from 8 split IN the Democratic
party.
Mr.. B. Presley Barron said he endorsed
every word Of the address issued by the
Baskell conference.
Brawiey Spurns Haskellism.
Moi. W. q. Brawley, OF Charleston, said
Monday in an interview with Charleston
World reporter:
81 am the regular nominee of the Demo
cratic party of the first congressional dis
tyict. This Democracy is in organic union
with the Democratic party Of the State and
of the United States. AS such could sup
