Anti.Tillman Bull Doing at Sumter

We went to Sumter on Wednesday of this
week to see and hear the speakers; we want
ed to learn for ourselves exactly how this
whole thing was being worked. Of course,
we found it an Earle meeting, being at Gen.
Earle's bone; we suppose two-thir1s of the
people present We're IN favor Of Sumters
nonored son for Governor.
The speaking commenced ut about eleven
o'clock in the morning, and continued with
ont any intermlssion until six in the after
noon. Tillman was drawn through the
streets of the town seated in farm wagon,
dressed with corn stalks, ETC., about $50
people pulling on the rope. Gen. Bratton
spoke first for about twenty minutes, with
out the least interruption. When Capt.
Tillman was announced the yelling COM
menced and he was interrupted all during
his two hours speech. 1t was q shame
full state of affairs, and no one was arrested
or molested. When Earle got mp and tried
to speak, the crowd attempted to do the
same thing and yelled and whooped, some
for Earle and some for Tillman. The po.
licemen, being urged thereto by the Earle
men, and backed up by the Columbia con-
tingent," soon arrested eight or ten of the
lllliUuu lucll-Oiu4A1AS AftiLA LILO AohSS3
the crowd to keep quiet, and Earle had a
complete walk over. No one else dared to
whoop it up for Tillman. 1t was useless to
lock up the Tllman men because it was all
one way, anyhow. 1t was a complete case
of "bull-dozing" The persons in control
of the meeting onght not to have allowed
Tlllman to be interrupted and insulted and
then they could have done the same thing
for the Earle men with equal propricty.
Fair play is q jewel.
The cry was that lot of Tillmanites had
gone there to capture the meeting for their
favorites. This was the merest bosh. On
the same train with US were hundred or
two people, and nine-tenths of them We're
Anti-Tillman Just as we got to the depot
a large contingent of the same Antl-Tillman
crowd came in from Columbia. Undoubt-
edlv some of Tillman' s friends and support
ers went to Sumter, but we unhesitatingly
declare that majority of all the visitors
there were Anti-Hllman. Yet the impress
ion is being conveyed that the Tillman men
tried to capture the meeting.

THE SUMTER MEETING.

The most disgraceful meeting yet held IN
this campaign was that last Wednesday IN
Sumter. Too much hot-headed talk had
been done on both sides before the meeting,
and when the time for the meeting
came pandemonium reigned supreme
General Bratton was allowed to speak IN
peace, but the moment Tillman arose the
work of bossism began. His friends nat
urally cheered for him, and the Earle meu
beng in very large majority attempted to
drown out their cheers and prevent Illlman
from speaking. And it was not, as has
been asserted, the Orangeburg and Claren-
don roughs that did the devilry, for they
did not arrive on the ground till Tlilman
had been speaking for some time, but 1t
was the Anti-Tillman bon tons from the
Central railroad and from Darlington and
from Sumter, together with what few I'LL
man roughs had assembled mp to that
time. Place it in whatever light possible,
and the Anti -Tillmanites were responsible
for that disgraceful meeting last Nednes-

''Sumter Has Disgracea Herself" :"
1BiSh0prille Engle. ]

Yesterday was our c2mpaign day. we were
there, what TO say about it, is puzzle, it
was confusion, worse confounded."
Sumter county, the '.game-cock" county
has disgraced herself-must be the verdict
that will 60 out to the woodland yet-we
hardly think the riotous, disgraccfnl pro-
ceedings Of yesterday, can be charged to Us.
1t was the imported element, those tram
loads from abroad
But; there was some significant occnr-
rences while Capt Tillman was trying to
speak. the bowling, whooping, and yelling
was funny,.v funny, but when Gen. Earle
got up 10 speak, the same thing, was a
breach Of the peace, sin against the Holy
Ghost, and several were arrested and put in
the guard house. Because they said "Hur-
rah for Tillman!' nd-Tillmanism was
made stronger thereby.

Tie DiSgraceiul Sumter Meeting.
lFrom the Sumter Advance.

from the Sumter Advanced
The campaign meeting in Sumter last
Wednesday was one of the largest and liveli-
est of the campaign. Enthusiasm ran high
and everybody seemed ready for the fray.
A crowd OF Tllmanites gathered at the c. 5.
Il n. depot where Tillman met them and rs
soon as the excursion train came in the pro-
cession moved up town. Tillman was seat
ed in wagon decorated with corn stalks
and drawn by crowd of Tillmanites- BY
the time Tillman arrived ut the stand the
crowd was estimated at about 3, 900 or 4, QUO.
The stand was tastefully decorated, and
Earle notices met the eye on every hand.
As soon rs comparative order was secured
Gen. Bratton was introduced and made a
patriotic Democratic speech, and would to
God the people would heed the words OF
advice, Of warning, of soberness and truth
uttered by this grand old hero, pure Demo
crat and devoted son of South Carolina.
There is no question that the straightouts
outnumbered the Tillmanites ut least three
to one despitefhe fact that a large crowd
of Tillman henchmen were brought
here from other counties to holler
''Tlllman" and to howl down Earle.
When Tillman began to speak the Tillman-
iacs opened their program, but they found
out that they were o1tnumbered. and the
shouts for Earle nearly drowned them out.
This seemed to enrage them and fora while
pandemonium reigned and the scene was
disgraceful The hurrahing of the Earle
men was simply to off set the action Of the
Tillmanites Col Earle appealed to MS
friends to give Tillman hearing, but the
feeling was so high ard the confusion SO
great that the great bamboozler." the SLAM
Gerer and traducer of his people, the be-
smircher of the good name Of his State,
proceeded under difficulties and his re-
marks were heard by very few people. His
speech consisted of the same old false
charges and insinuations without proof and
without offering any measures OF reform OF
relief
1t was when Col. Earle was introduced
that the Nllmanites who came here from
abroad to howl Earle down and break up
the meeting opened their game in earnest.
They were reinforced by Tillmanites from
this county. They made "a rush for the
stand and attempted to tear down the Earle
banners and break up the meeting. They
overestimated their strength, for The straight
outs and the police were too much for them,
and after several of them were put in the
guard house they quieted down somewhat.
Thus the plot of this organized crowd was
defeated, and after that the meeting pro-
ceeded without much difficulty. The ques'
ton has been asked why were only Tillman
men arrested? If that be true, the explana-
ton is that the Tillmanites were the ones
who kicked up all the devilment here, as
Tillman himself admitted they did at Cam
den and as they have been doing elsewhere.
The result was that many Tllmanites de-
serted the fold here at she Sumter meeting.
They turned away in disgust.
After COL Earle got through, better atten-
tion was paid to the other speakers, and it
was very remarkable how the large crowd
held together till the end.

. USNITIGATED MENDAClTY.

The Sumter Aduance in its last issue has
great deal to say about the Sumter campaign
meeting, but its glasses were so bedimmed
with dust, we fear it saw nothing as it really
was. For instance read the two following
paragraphs taken from the columns Of that
paper:
Two gentlemen counted the crowd that
pulled the Iillman wagon through Main
street, and they say that 1t was drawn by
eighty-one persons, including boys and ne
groes.
Fauaticism Rampant. There was q con-
-snicuous example of fanaticism run mad on
the streets OF Sumter during the meeting.
A crowd, composed Of 70 per cent. negroes
who are attracted by anything that affords
them amusement, 25 per cent. boys who did
not know what it was for. and per cent.
white men dragged Tllmau through n the
streets with a wiid whoop and yell, and into
place on Liberty street.
In other words. according to the Sumter
Adrance. the wagon in which Tillmar rode
was drawn by eighty-one persons, Of whom
81 were negroes. 20 were boys, and only
were white men! A greater untruth has
not been uttered in this campaign. We do
not know how many drew the wagon, but
reliable gentlemen, who were there, say the
rope was about two hundred yards long, and
was filed up chiefly by white men, and that
accompanying the wagon, as an escort, were
hundreds of others walking along the side
walk and forming part Of the procession.
Sheriff Dear, editor of the Georgetown
Times, was there and puts the number OF
people who had hold of the rope as two
hundred and fifty. The Nescs and Courier
says he was drawn by Orangeburg friends,
and if the negroes had been there in any
large numbers that paper would not have
lost the opportunity to have made capital OF
it. But this is the regular and systematic
course the Ants pursue. They seldom give
US facts

The readers Of the TINES will be pleased
to learn that there is at least one dreaded
disease that science has been able to cure in
all its stages, and that is catarrh. Halls
catarrh cure is the only positive cure now
known to the medical fraternity Catarrh
being constitutional disease, requires con-
treatment Halls catarrh cure is
taken internally, acting directly upon the
blood and mucous surfaces of the system,
thereby destroying the foundation of the
disease, and giving the patient strength by
bailding up the constitution and assisting
