What Autter among the yotriot p Il

leading State organ handles the v".
cabulary OF abuse a;G 'inir.lction n2-
on one lone man whose greatest
fau,t mag be thnt he "inves mol wise.
ly but TOO w1ll' tie farmers cause.
And still til vcritahle fanatic, IN tho
face of all opprobium Il Il calumn.
that is spent upon him, remains
calm AMI serene.
We ere not an advocate for MI
liIl;nan for Governor Of SouLh Caro-
lina, aor Ao ace e%pcc. u bc unless die
receives the nomination ia the rom.
i,:g State Dcroc:atic Contention.
We have always teliovcl him
too radical and extreme in his
remedies, anl tlat the patient
he was treating hail not arrived 1T
that stage of tic 'iiscase wherc he.
ruic measures were necessary. Il,
however, lie be mistaken in his dag
nos;s, and even asksncc trying to
huiIl his reputation IL physician.
lall men arc aelLishl, is it not the
height of charity to give him
credit :or the sincerity, interest and
pluck he has shown in the treatment
of the case? It is absurd to doubt
his Democracy, when he expressly
declares, and rciterates, that he will
ubidc anl cheeErully submit To the
dec sion of the regular Democratic
Convention as to his nomination.
| No one will deny but what lillman
the agitator, or reforlner, (as you
pIease) during his two years career
as such, has m!do and will make
many errors. But who, We ask,
'.has sight 81 keen and stron1' as |"
be willing TO risk the assertion that
! the wrongs corrected for ho farmers
rel er bS the during and intrepidity
o! Mr Tillm,n, mY not in the en,l
vastly outwcigh all his errors? No
reformation, pollt Cal, re ig;oIs Or
sJcial, and no leader If any reforma
ton, within our knowledge, has cyel
been free from error, or perhaps act
ual crane, in achieving The ends lol
which they sought.
We read with special Interest
the "scrics Of queries rs they have
appeared in your excellent paper
in discussion Of the Sheli-Tilimar
iulo:, and fully endorse many OF t.
drducti rs drawn thererrJm; bat no
all. While We admit the necessity
OF system in all things, # We woai'
win suvcess, still SIC believe that tot
nu;r pa: ty machinery is cumbersome
and unhealthful to the body polite
and too often lead the masses 1t
thin!; that rings eXiss antaSonistic Il
their welfare, ESPECIALLY when the.
have examples Of "Blecks of Five
originating ut machinery hcadquar
ters, IS in the last Presidential elec
! ton.
A sound, honest, and progressive
State and Nationa. policy in politics
is what the people want, unI to m.
mind is Il needed reform, and woul'
tend greatly to quiet the unrest tia
now purvaic the masses. And again
that the Democratic party is in an..
great dagger of being wrecked ant
riren to pieces by the I'll Imam night
mare. we cannot but regard rs high
" imaginative. And rs to whltn s'l
prcmacy, there is not an iota OF arSu
ment that the man is yet bon wh'
possesses either tie personal mag
nctism or mental ucuTIen IN such
degree rs to b. able TO lead the farm
ers iuto any movement or division
that would even threaten tho over
throw Of the great results Of lSIG.

" At noon. tide, ami with hardly tint

have only felt inclined to say wha
