Let Reform Mean Low Taxes.

Capt. Tillman has made two long speech
es in his canvass for governor. He has re-
ferred, in very strong terms, TO certain
wrongs done by the legislature in the past,
and to certain departments Of the State gov
ernlnent wherein he thinks there may be an
increase of efficiency. But not yet has Capt
Tillman pointed ont the means whereby
State or county taxes may De rednccda sin

many instances burdensome. They should
be reduced, wherever reduction Is possible
This is plain, and Mr. Tillman Is not alone in
the demand for retrenchment But rs Mr..
Tillman is before the people, as an aSpirant
to office, on a platform which Is without
meaning if it does not mean retrenchment,
he ought to point ont inst where eXpendit-

homilies on the rights of the people, and
lamentations over their wrongs are we'll

DOHS WITH TILLMAN!

DOKN WITH TILLMAN!
This is the slogan Of the opponents
of Ben Tillman, and no stone will be
left unturned to effect this end. Nu-
merous methods have been tried, and
now it looks as if q combined effort
viii be made, to get discord and dis
union among his supporters. Candi-
dates will be put forth in the differ
ent counties, as many as can be
brought out, the purpose being to
get the people to support the home
candidate against Ben Tillman. Then
when the State convention meets, all
these delegates who have been elected
for Anti -TIman candidates, together
With such black sheep as have slipped
into the Tillman fold, will combine on
some one or any one Of the numerous
Anti -Tllman candidates, and the mat
ter is done! Tillman is defeated and
the work of the farmers movement
sqnelched!
We throw out this suggestion SIM
ply that the farmers may have their
eyes open. Some of the candidates
spoken of we believe are better fitted
for the duties of the gubernatorial
chair, and are better statesmen, than
Tillman, but then it is not men but
measures that the farmers are voting
FOR. They are crying out against a
ring and monopoly and all such. WE'LL
80 far, so good. The sins" do not
want to get ont, and would gladly
hold on for life. In some respects
the charge of extravaganza may be
brought to bear against some of the
officers, but there is nothing like cor
ruption or fraud in our State govern
ment. We do not believe word OF
any s2ch charge. The question is
simply to get new crew to man the
ship of State. The farmers are de-
manding this, and we see no sin IN
their demand, but if they are sincere
in this move, they have got to stick to
1ss1ssas-Fffthe # tier do not. it viii sim:
ply show that the farmers are not, as
has been charged, fit to take any hand
in the political fights of the day, and
they may as we'll delegate to the
ssleaders" in each community their
right Of franchise.
Fit is a question simply of 1illman
or some other man for governor, then
it IS matter OF very little Importance,
and We would very probably all select
some man in whom we had E more
personal interest; but if it is ques-
ton of measures, with Tillman as the
exponent, then personal feeling should
not be factor. If the farmers think
there should be change in the ad-
ministration of State affairs, there is
no harm in carrying the thought into
action, and they ought to be able to
do it this year, or at any time they so
elect, for they have the numbers on
their side; but then numbers do not
always count most: experience and
thorough organization is worth far
more than mere numbers. A dozen
disciplined soldiers can hold three or
four times as many men without or
ganizaion at bay, and put them to
rout.
If the farmers are in earnest in this
movement, they must be thoroughly
organized, and stick to their colors
through thick and thin, good and evil
repute-
