Tillmam'S Nomination.

For several years it has been evil
dent that the farmers were restless
under the present State government.
They thought the lawyers and
trained politicians from Charleston
and Columbia had entire control of
affairs. They were dissatisfied.
Large appropriations to the Univer-
sity and the election of "aristocrats,"
as they were called, to the best
offices, tended to augment their dis.
satisfaction. They felt that they
had a grievance. -Four years ago
Ben Tillman suddenly came to the
front and partly formulated their
various grievances into words. Year
after year the farmers have been
growing bolder and more aggressive.
They want a change in the State
government. They think little
rotation in Office would be good
thing, especially for those who get
in. During the last four years Till
man has been their chief spokesman.
In a certain sense he is their leader.
The late convention was called to
nominate him. That was the domi
nant idea of those who made the
call. The Spartanburg County Con-
vention is fair sample of the man
agemcnt of the whole affair. Good
and true men were arbitrarily ruled
out of the convention. Three
fourths of the farmers of our county
would not approve of the plans pur-
sued by the Chairman who presided
that day. In Charleston eight dele
gates were elected at meeting
which had been called twcnty-four
hours beforehand. Two delegates
came from Beaufort and no one
knows how they were chosen. The
Pickcns delegates were instructed
by their county to vote against nomi-
nations and they voted in favor of
them. q man, now living iii Tau
rens county, was wcdgcd into the
Spartanbnrg delegation. BY such
means was TiIlman's nomination car
ricd. Col. J. G. Colt declines to run
for Lieutcnant-Govcrnor on this
ticket. In making that decision he
has acted wisely. 1t was what his
friends expected him to DO. !Ic, no
doubt, feels able to hold it, But will

Twenty-Five Years After Appomatox.

From the Atlanta Constitution, April 8. |
twenty-five years ago to-day the
tremendous tidings of Appomatox
carried unuttcrablc dispair to every
Southern home.
Outnumbcred but not outdone, the
ragged heroes in gray, who charged
with Pickett and marched with Jack
son, surrendered with their great
commander. In sullcn silence they
stacked arms in front of their cxul-
tant foemen. and then turned their
sad faces Sauth%ara.
On their homcward way the Con

body Or faction of farmers. Any
of them or any individual or asso-
citation of individuals may form an
organization to oppose Mr.. Tillman
and may put stump speakers in the
field to meet him; but the talk of
rebellion and treason and inhicting
punishment is all foolishncss on both
sides. 1t is the very essence of the
"rule or ruin," intolcrant spirit that
cursed ns so long and of which we
have been happily rid in the last few
years.
The best way to guard against tho
development Of spirit of rebellion
against the party is to make it evil
dent to all reasonable men that exact
fair play can be had inside the party
and to establish on all sides and
among all the people the spirit of
obedience to the decision of the
majority of tho party as freely and
fairly declared. We believe the
best method to that end would be a
general primary, but that can not be
secured without the action of the
State Convention and it is not likely
that that body will order primary
for tho next election, because ono
faction or the other will have a
majority in it, and whichever has
that majority will use it to nominate
it's ticket.
The struggle for that convention
will be between the friends and
opponents of Tillman in the Demo
cratic party. Every other man in
the State who has aspirations for the
Governorsbip will be against Mr..
Tillman and allied with those who
oppose him on general principles.
The situation will give him hard
odds to fight, but he has deliberately
and voluntarily put himself in it and
pittcd his strength against that OF
all comcrs. If he wins in such cir.
cumstanccs the fact will be conclu.
sivc evidence that he is the choice OF
the Democrats of the State above
any other man and all other men.
Nothing will be accomplished on
either side by bulldozing and loud
and loose talk. 1t may stir popula,
prcjudiccs for the time, but the re.
vulsion will come and common sense
will assert it's power as it always has
done and will do.
Mr.. Tillman has put his case be.
fore the people and he and his
friends will, in time we suppose
advocate it. The people will hear
try and determine whether it is bes,
that he shall be the next Gov aor
Both sides will bo heard and th.
verdict will be rendered when til,
delegates are chosen to the Angus
Convention of the Democrats of th,
State. If the verdict is for Tillman
the majority of those delegates vii
be for him and he will be nominated
and elected. If it is against him
some other man will be nominated
and elected, And this is all there il
to it,

Tho Iron Chancellor steps Down.

Bismarck has resigned as Chancel-
lor of the German Empire, and the
Emperor has accepted his resignation.
As all the other mem bers of The Ca6i-
net followed Bismarck example and
rendered their designations, an entire
new Cabinet may be formed. Il is
known that General Won Caprive has
been named as Bismarck's successor,
but as a strict censorship is held over
the telegraph in Berlin, nothing de-
finite can be ascertained.
The disagreement between the Em-
peror and Chancellor is reported to
be caused by Bismarck's refusal to
accede to a proposition to restore the
Duke Of Cumberland, the claimant to
the throne of Hanover, the larger
part of the Guelph fund.
Bismarck has been virtually Dicta-
tor of Germany for many years, and
his overbearing nature could not
brook diclation, especially from a
young man, though the young man
be an Emperor. His iron will is un-
bending, and accustomed as he has
been 10 having his own way and as
Stunning the responsibility of every
act that he decreed or sanctioned, he
resigned rather than accede TO sim
gle proposition that did not corre-
spond with his views. He raised
Prussia from a third class power TO
an empire of which, now that he has
retired, the young Emperor has nn-
disputed possession.

a Chicago special of March 7th
says: G S. Reynolds, of Nebraska,
one of the largest sheep buyers in the
West, said: This Winter has been
an unfortunate one To wool growers on
the Pacific slope. as The heavy storms
have killed many sheep. have found
severe losses in Oregon, Nevada, Utah
and Northern California. As the wool
growing industry is too extensive to
be confined to any one district the
sheep owners VINO pulled their fiocks
through will get no increase over las
years prices Some Pacific slope sheep
raisers will be driven out Of the bust
ness by their heavy losses this Winter
California is still the star wool State.
While there will be loss of 30 per
cent in Northern California the increase
of 25 per cent in the southern part of
the State will bring the clip Of the en-
tire State up to, if not above the
average.
alp Utah, Oregon and Nevada the
loss is universal Montana will show
fair increase. In Eastern Oregon
and Nevada the loss of sheep is 65 per
cent. One reason for the heavy loss
in Nevada is that no hay was raised
during the last two years. When this
years storm began all communication
from the outside was shut off, and no
hay was obtainable. The meagre
supply of hay was given to the cattle.
and the sheep had to rustic or starve.
Nearly every year I buy several hun
| dren sheep at or near Austin, Nevada.
This year there is not enough wool
there to line an overcOat. All in all,
it will be pretty hard year for sheep
growers.
