In south Caroline.

aarolina presents today, sage
tho Atlanta Consultations, an Oh sc.s 3ISss5h
thss may well DO studied by the people
Of tho South. The situation in that State
is a worry desperate one; the disruption OF
tho Democratic party, or, to be more
accurate, the white mans party, Is
threatened, and there seems to be no
remedy for the OWL. Following this lis.
r1ption will come political chaos Ind
ruin. The situation seems to be but a
stop removed from negro domination and
the renewal Of the troubles that wrought
disaster In South Carolina during tho TO.
construction period.
1t might be supposed that tho people
Of that State, after their humiliating
experi,nc o with negro domination, would
steer claaro Of all complications that might
lead them in the direction of negro DON'T
nation; and yot thoro seems to DO q large
body Of Democrats In Carolina who arc
so blinded by prejudice that they arc
willing to destroy tho Democratic party
and take all tho risks of tho CHAOS that
would ensue.
: AS Senator Butler truly says, thcro Can
DO no middle ground in South Carolina;
no halfway house. Judge Haskell and
the mon who arc supporting him may
call themselves Democrats, but thoy arc
not Democrats. They are destrOyors OF
democratic unity and harmony, and thoy
are preparing to lotdown the bars SO that
negro domination in one shape or another
may run riot in tho State.
The Democratic party in South Caro-
lima has already spoken, AID in no uncers
tain voice. by an overwhelming majority
Of its voters 1t has nominated ,Tillman
for Governor. Ho may DO q very good
man, or n worry bad ono-ata any. ratio he
is the Democratic nominee, and those
who oppose him must necessarily play
into tho hands Of the Republican party,
which Is composed of tho worst and
most vicious elements in South Carolina.
Tho mon who. arc boiling Tilllnan's
nomination may call themselves Demo-
Gratis, but thoy arc anything but Demo-
Gratis; they arc playing directly into tho
hands of tho Republicans. They may
call themselves patriots, and yot thoy
arc exposing tho State and tho people Of
South Carolina to the gravcst dangers.
Judge Haskell and his supporters, if
they persist in their ruinous course, can
not escape tho Republican party. AS q
matter of fact tho negroes have already
held q convention and hitchcd tho holters
to their cart. All that is ncccssary.i is for
Judge Haskell to give the word and tho
motley procession will move.

"FaoIlis Decensus Ayerni."

Tho road to evil is easy, and to none
moro SO than to tho Independent in South
Carolina politics. No sophistry oan dis
guise tho fact that thoro are, and can be,
only two political parties IN our State,
and those, tho Democratic and Ropubli-
can. There is no ground for q neutral,
no place for q mugwump. Ho who is
not now with tho Democracy is against
it. regardless of what may have been his
party affiliations in tho past. Another
fact is equally indisputablo, that nino-
tenths of tho white people of South Caro-
lima belong to tho Democratic party, and
will support tho nominees of tho Septem-
Dor State Convention.
Whore, then, is tho Independent, and
whence comes his support, if support ho
recoivcs?. 30 not deceived in q namo; he
may pose rs an Independent Democrat or
n Straightout Democrat, but tho votors
arc other white or black, Democratic or
Republican. A few misguided Dcmo-
Gratis may vote for tho Independent, but
by far tho majority of his votes must of
necessity como from tho Republican
ranks. What then is the resultP Why,
don't you seeP-thc boastcd Independent
is then of all men tho most dependent.
Elected by tho Republicans no must sub
nit to Republican dictation, and if he
maintains his supremacy it must bo in
and through tho machinery of tho Repub-
lican party. And thus the delu,led hide
pendent is carried over horse, whoof and
dragon into the Republican camp, and
that, too, even against his opn wiU. Such
was the history of Malone in Virginia.
Such will DO the end of Haskcllism in
South Carolina, if attended with any

,I!FsA.N 1Rs w
A | 6 for Congress-.

All the Democrats in this Congress.
sional District. who supported Norris
will vote for Johnstono to q man. They
know their duty and will perform it.
They feel that thoy arc bound in morals
and in law to do so, and in addition to
these considerations thoy must do so to
defeat tho dreadful purpose Of tho hide
%pendonts who have always been de-
bounced by Wade Hampton as "worso
than Radicals" We do not give tho
rumors as authoritative, but there is talk
of danger to Our Democratic Congress
sional nominees. 1t is said that tho
unholy coalition means to leave out five
of our Congressman and give their places
to pronounced Republicans. Tho scheme
is to swap votes for these places and for
tho State ticket of tho boltcrs. In this
way the control of tho State government
will BIO wrestcd from tho Democratic
party and representation in Washington
will be turned over to the party of plum
dor. Arc our people willing to give up
IIomphill, tombstone, Staokhousc, Eli
oft, Brawley, Shell Or George u. Tillman
and DO disgraced by Smalls Whipper,
Deas and such likcp Tho very thought
is aLhorrent. Let every man then lay
aside his business and stand rs ono man
against al! enemies of tho Democratic
party and ali Inc peoplc.-AbbcuiNe Me-
diun,.
There can DO no question TINT every
Democrat in tho Third Congressional
District is bound by party fealty to vote
for Hon. George tombstone for Congress,
because he stands ,s tho nominee of tho
Democratic party. All questions of pcr-
sOnal preference were ruled out by his
nomination, and tho ardent supporters
of Col. Norris will now come up like true
mon and Democrats to work and vote for
Johnstono rs against tho Republican
nominee. Such support tho friends of
Johnstono have tho right to demand;
with no less should thoy DO content.
Then tho same rule demands of ovcry
Democrat his loyal support of Mr.. Till
man and tho other nominees of tho Sep
TENDER Convention, because they arc tho
standard bearers OF tho Democracy as
pnt forth in the regular State Convention
of tho party, assembled for the express
purpose of making nominations.
No man can make an exception in his
support of the Democratic nominees for
either State or Federal offices. Tho obli-
cation to stand by the party nominees is
equally binding in both respects. There
fore, let every Democrat in Oconeo and
throughout tho Third Congressional Dis
triot vote the duly authorized and accro-
dited Democratic ticket from Governor
down in all State and county Offices, as
well as for Congress.

H1onoRY GROVE, s. O., OCT. 49,
Mr.. r. M. Allison, Of York County,
has just finished gathering and miea,
surfing the corn from two special
acres which he put a little extra
work on last spring. One acre
yielded 1644 bushels and the othe,
one 145 bushels. 1t was grown on
bottom land and as a fertilizer he
put 100 bushels of cotton seed to
each aero. The corn is of the Gar.
rett variety and is splendid hominy
and bread corn NJ. Allison is one
of our most progressive farmers and
this is not the first time he has made
over 100 bushels of corn to the acre,
Last year he made 1877 bushels to the
acre and suffered from the effects OF
a freshet just at the time when it
would do the most harm.

consider the Lilies"

Fair and lonely were the lilies,
With their beauty all aglow,
When our dear Lord spoke about them
On the mountain long ago.
Not the great kings pomp and splen-
dor
Could, He said, with them compare,
Yet they toiled not and they spun
not,
Only gr9w aud blossomed there.
So he taught US from the lilies
And the birds that flew above,
How our Father watches DER US
With His tender care and love.
But there is another lesson,
That our Lord would have US know,
1t is, when we see the lilies,
To consider how they grow"
From their roots so dark and ugly.
They reach upward to the light,
Till they glisten in the sunshine.
Bud and blossom pure and white.
Flinging far aud near the fragrance
From their chalices of snow,
Honey-laden, golden-hearted,
Thus it is the lilies grow.
So the hearts, dark, sad and hidden,
Cropping fcebly toward the light,
Striving each day, to reach upward,
May grow fair and pure and bright.
There IS struggle and endeavOr
In this rising from below,
But the beauty of the lilies
Is because the lilies grow.
Exchange.
