The Amende Honorable.

Editor Register: While in.Chic-
ago during the session Of the Ma
tional Democratic Convention, the
opposition of Governor Tillman
and his delegation to the nomina-
tion of Mr.. Cleveland was expected
and surprised no one. After Mr..
Cleveland was nominated, and it
was considered the very acme of
wisdom and political policy to
place Governor Gray of Indiana
in nomination for the second place,
I noted the strong advocacy of
General Stevenson of Illinois by
Governor Tillman. I lost patience
and said this is the very willful-
ness and obstinacy characteristic
of this remarkable man. / write
now, Mr.. Editor, to make the
amende honorable, honor to whom
honor is due. I began to realize
the wisdom of Stevenson's nomi-
nation When his magnetic. speeches
put North Carolina back into the
Democratic column. To-day I am
ready to acknowledge that to the
States of North and South Carol
ina is due the nomination of Mr..
Stevenson and thereby making
sure the success and perpetuation
the Democratic party. M

THURsDA DAY DEC .7, i, 1892
LEGISLATIVE.
S The most important bills intro

The most important bills intro
duced duringthe present session OF
the Legislature are:
The Prohibition bile, their
is legion, and some one of them
will certainly pass both houses and
become law, Gov. Tillman having
advised the General Assembly in
his message that he will approve
any bill on this subject they see
proper to pass.
Another important meassSe is
the county court bill introduced by
Senator John Gary Evans, Of
Aiken. This bill is almost the
same bill introduced by Senator
Evans in the House last session. It
Will be safe to say that some kind
Of alaW will be enacted at this ses-
{ sion in substitution of our present
system of county governments by
aboard of county commissioners
a bill to substitute salaries for
fees to allcounty officers has been
introduced.
Also a bill for the working of
certain conyicts on the public roads
I and streets instead of sending
them to- the penitentiary.
Senator Abbott has introduced
Ia bill providing ahome for Con-
federate veterans. It provides for
the erection of a Confederate Sol
diers' Home at Columbia, the site
and build ldings to cost not more than
SIC, 600, and the annual provisions
forits maintenance not to exceed
$40 per capita. The Home to be
governed by a board of visitors,
{ four in number, who are to be ap-
pointed by the Governor for two
years, and who will elect the su-
perintendent, fix the compensation,
and provide rules for the govern
ment of the institution.
Senator Zimmerman has intro
duced bill repeating the law
which provides county medical ex-
amining boards and substituting q
State examining board.
Several salary reduction bills are
on the calendar. Twenty per cent.
reductions on all salaries is about
the way they run.
The only special legislation for
Edgefeld up to date, is the bill
presented by Capt. P. B. Waters,
authorizing the town council OF
Edgefeld to order the necessary
ordinances for the establishment,
construction aud maintenance of a
system of water-works in the town
of Edgefeld, and to issue bonds for
the purpose of the establishment,
construction, and maintenance of
watef-works.

Manned, Bnt still in the Ring.

We hope it is not wrong for a
Republican to feel bad these days
because, right or wrong, he cannot
help feeling so. A real, old
fashioned Republican, all wool
and d yard wide, IS dreadfully at
odds with this chastisement of
Providence, He gets out of bed
slowly with creaking joints, eats
husks or beefsteak indifferently
drags around all day with assense
of goneness and vacant
preoccupied smile to cover his woe,
site up late talking it all over
with his fellow suffererers, and
finally says his prayers in q sort
of hopsless way, crawls into bed
with a great sigh, and dreams
that ten more States, which he
never heard of before, have gone
for Cleveland, with all that that
implies. 1t is a hard time for the
faithful, and no mistake. !
But there are crumbs, yes
loayes, of comfort, here and there
after all. Not quite everything
has been drowp-l in the moon
struck tide. A .bove ALI like
Ararat to Noah, looms the fact
thatit is the country we all love
and believe in that has worked her
will upon us. We are sore and
bruised, and cannot quite see why
she treats us SO, and our Demo
cratic friends are as much astonis-
heed as are we at the all-embracing
throughness of her goings; but we
could not be faithful Republicans
without being loyal Americans.
In the long run, somehow aud
finally, it is all for the BEST, We
don't know just how or when, but
we shall know when the time
comes. Here's to you, dear old
Republic! We about to die, salute
eel-Hartford Courant.

GOVERNORS MESSAGE.

We issue Gov. Tillman's message
as a supplement to the ADVERTISER
! this week. It lis probably the long
est messageever sent by a Governor
to a General Assembly of this State
and, as usual with all the papers
from Gov. Tillman, is a statesman
like document. Our columns are
too crowded to permit of a discus
sion of it, and we hope each one of
our readers will peruse it carefully
or himself.

STATE BANK.

The New York Financial-C Chron-
icle. the New York Journal Of
Commerce, and the New York
Bulletin, three of the ablsst fnan.
oial journals in the Country, ad.
vocate the repeal of the tax on the
circulation of State banks. The
last named sums up its reasons fo1
such repeal as follows:
s(1 That the tax was originally
intended as a temporary expedient
for diverting banking to the ma
tional system, which was con-
trived as support to war finance ;
a(1) That, as that purpose is no
longer operative the Institutional
right of the State banks to issue
notes should no longer be held in
allowance to Federali Intervention
(3) That, from the nature of the
national system, it.tended to the
extinction of its own circulation
and has already suffered a COM
pulsory Refinement of about two.
thirds of its original maximum OF
note issues;
a(4) That this contraction OF
bank circulation had encouraged
the mania for an increase of silver
dollars as substitute and was
keeping alive the clamor for free
coinage;
a(5} That the national system
imposed such arbitrary conditions
of guarantee against its notes as
were fatal to their issue and, be-
ing unpopular, there was little OF
no hope of those restraints being
remedied by Congress; and.
a(6) That, unless we are to open
the flood gates fol. the unrestricted
use Of silver, it is Imperative, in
orderto provide due elasticity in
our system of circulation. that the
State banks should be forthwith
allowed the exercise of this natur-
al, rightful and wholesome func-

the schools in the neighoorhood,
subsequently entering one of the
high schools Of Greenwood, where
he was prepared to enter the soph-
omore class of Mercer University,
Georgia, but abandoned the idea
of attending a literary and classi-
cal college, and commenced the
study of medicine in 1858, grad
uating from the Charleston Medi-
cal College in 1854. He imme-
diately settled in the Edisto section
of the county, where he has ac-
lively and continuously practiced
his profession, operating in con-
nection Herewith q large farm
with great success. he was elected
to the Legislature in 1882, and
again in 1890, and upon the death
of Senator Ready in the early -pa1t
of last year was elected to fill his
unexpired term. He now holds the
Office of county chairman of the
Democratic party of Edgsfeld. DR..
Zimmerman has always taken an
active part in politics and is the
leader Of the Reform Movement in
his county. he is a man of mind
and positive convictions, but wlthal
conservative, and will make, as he
has already done, a fearless and
useful Senator.

founder Of the town of Parksville,
it having derived it's name from
his family. He received a practical
education, and devoted the energies
of his life to farming. He is a
successful business man, and by
the able management of his private
affairs has succeeded in ac-
cumulatinga nice little fortune,
and to-day commands the con-
Adence and respect of his fellow
citizens, welding a great influence
in the community in which he
lives. Mr. Parks is not politician,
but has always given his best aid
and support to the furtherance and
maintenance of the Democratic
party and while untried in the
legislative field, his sound jndg-
ment and integrity of character
give assurance that he will serve
his constituency well.
