Fellow Democrats, do not all these
things cry out for change? Is it not
opportune, when there is no national
election, for the common people who re-
deemed the State from Radical rule to
take charge Of it7 Can we afford to leave
it longer in the hands of those who, wed.
ded to the ante bellum ideas but posses.
sing little of ante bellum patriotism and
honor, are running it in the interest of a
few families and for the benefit of selfish
ring of politicians as real Democrats
and white men, those aoho here reaaea0 our
pledge to make the fight inside the Dem.
ocratic party and abide the result, we call
upon every true Caroliuian, of all classes
and callings, to help US purify and reform
the Democratic party and give us a gov
ernment of the people, by the people, and
for the people. If we control the State
Democratic Convention, a Legislature in
sympathy will naturally follow; failing
to do this ne risk losing all we have
gained, and have no hope of any change
for the better. The logic of events and
past experience show that we must nom.
mate candidates and put them in the field
early, so that the masses will understand
what they must do to bring about the
change we so desire. Such course will
cause an active canvass, wide discussion
of the issues presented, and the people
thus learning the truth can show whether
they are in favor of the farmers movement
or not, by electiDg or rejecting our nomi.
nees.
We therefore issue thi. call for con-
vention of those Democrats who sympa-
thize with our views and purposes, as
herein set forth, to meet in Columbia, in
the House of Representatives, on Thurs.
day, the 9th day Of March, proximo, at
IL o'clock m., to nominate ticket for
every State Office, from Governor down,
to be put in the field for ratification or
rejection by the next Democratic State
Convention, and ne pledge ourselves to
abide the result, whether that is for or
against us.
Each County will send as many dele.
gates as it sends to the State convention,
and we suggest that a mass meeting or
convention be called in each County to
elect delegates on Saleday in March.

a Manifesto from the President Of the
Farmers Association.

To the Democracy of South Carolina
For four years the Democratic party
in the State has been deeply agitated,
and efforts have been made at the pri-
}maries and conventions to secure retreneh-
5mentS and reform, and recognition of
the needs and rights of the masses. The
first farmers convention met in April,
1886. Another in November of the
same year perfected permanent organi.
szation under the name of the Farmers
Association of South Carolina" This
association, representing. the reform
element in the party, has held two an.
.nual sessions since, and at each of these
four conventions, largely attended by
representative farmers from nearly all
the Counties, the demands ofthe people
for greater economy in the government,
greater efficiency in its officials and a
fuller recognition of the necessity for
cheaper and more practical education
have been pressed upon the attention Of
our legislators
In each of the. two last Democratic
State conventions the farmers move
mentn has had q large following, and
we only failed of controlling the conven-
/. tion of 1883 by q small rote-less than
twenty. FIVE -and that, too, in the face Of
the active opposition of nearly every
trained politician in the State. We
claim that NE have always had ma.
;jority of the people on our side, and
have only failed by reason of the superior
political tactics Of our opponents and our
lack of organization. In proof of this
we point to Abbeville and Chester, the
only Counties except Charleston which
had not slready appointed delegates to
the State convention before the campaign
meetings two years ago at which Cover
nor Richardson spoke. Both of those
Counties, after hearing the Governor
defend his policy and that of his faction,
repudiated him and it, and he received
only two votes from them.
The executive committee of the Farm.
ers' Association did not deem it worth
while to hold any convention last No.
