wHoe NAME soME OF TGEM.

You don't bear any of the Tiliman-
ties talking about helping out the
Third party. All the talk comes from
the Ants who are going about insinu-
ating that the organized Democracy
will sell out to that crowd. There is
not one word of truth in it. The Ants
have been telling so many stories since
1890 that it is hard for them to stop
suddenly. The Tiilnlauites propose to
whip out the Third party and al other
opponents.-AbbeyiI!e Medium.
Will Our esteemed cotemporary be
kind enough TO name some Of those
Ants who are talking about selling out
to the Third party? The Herald and
News has not heard CT any. In fact
we have been glad to see with what
good grace the Ants accepted the stu
alton.
The only prominent man who has
taken any part in the Third party
agitation is one Mr.. J. W. Bowden,
who was not an Anti, though We be.
lieve he did not vote at all.
You should net make any such
charges without the proof. And you
should specify, esteemed cotemporary
The Herald and News was an Anti
but we are now for the nominee, but
! we don't like to see such talk as this
from the Medium.
That is not the way to unity and
solidify the party.

Mr. Lat :mer Addresses Meeting at Abba
VILE, But Only a Special Few are Ad-
Initted.

Especial to the News and Courier.1
ABBEvILLE, September 10.-Asbury
G. Latimer, the Democratic nominee
for Congress from the Sd district spoke
here to-day before a meeting of the
County Alliance. Several hundred
members of the Alliance were present.
Latimer made speech on national
issues. After he had been speaking
for perhaps fifteen minutes note was
handed to John II. Morrah, the pre-
sidirg officer. who halted Latimer in
the flow of his eloquence and re-
quested all present who were not in
sympathy with the demands of the
Reform movement to leave the hall.
A number of gentlemen left the hall,
when the door was locked and bolted.
The note upon which President
Morrah is presumed to have acted
was conveyed to him by Charles Bow
en-, who said to a Reporter of The
News and Courier that the note was
written by w. Christie Benet.
It is not known what Latimer said
after the hall was vacated by the un-
reconstructed part ofthe audience, who
were driven out of the meeting, but
up to the time they left be made a
fairly good speech. 1t is said that he
afterwards made some unnecessary
comments on local political issues. A
good many men think that, as Lati-
mer is running as a Democrat, he
should have nothing to hide from
the Democrats, and chat the Conduct
of the Alliance to-day is not calcu-
lated to restore the era of harmony
and good feeling.

Tom Watson in a Fight.
fSpecial to News and Courier. I

Especial to News and Courier.]
AUGUSTA, September 12.-Congress-
man Thomas E. Watson got into a
fight this afternoon in coming to
Augusta to meet Major Black in joint
debate tonight. 1t happened on the
Georgia train, which was crowded with
hundreds of people, mostly Democrats,
who came to the city to hear the dis
cussion. Mr. Frank Jordan, of Han
cock County, who is an Allianceman
andi Democrat, was the gentleman
that got into the fracas with Watson.
Mr.. Jordan in walking through the
aisles of the car in which Watson was
seated, was cheering for Black, and re-
marked that Watson was sent to Con-
gress by the Democrats, and that be
went back on his party and was a
traitor. Some say Mr.. Jordan said
Watson sold out to the Republican
party.
Mr.. Jordan had passed Watson when
be made use Of the words, but the
Congressman heard him and called
Jordan a liar and at the same time
struck him in the back of the head.
Jordan did not see Watson, and as he
turned to see who had struck him
Watson peeled Mr.. Jordan another
blow, blackening his right eye. Jor-
dan made for Watson, but his friends,
who were largely in the majority, in.
terfered and prevented him from strik-
ing Watson. The fight created con-
siderable excitement, and pistols were
drawn by many on the car, but no
firearms were used.

That Campaign Slander.
ICoIunlbia Registe, I

Governor Tillman has received nu-
merous letters asking the explanation
of the charge that he referred to the
factory people as 1.-The id factory
class"
The Register has been requested to
publish the following letter explaining
the charge: ..-... ....
E. D. Miller, ESQ.,, Piedmont. S. c.
Dear Sir: Yours with affidavit re-
ceived. Life is too short to devote a
large part of it to the refutation and
explanation of the slanders and mis-
representations Of my enemies. AS
near as I can recollect, may have said
something like this ten or twelve years
ago. "As farm laborers, I had rather
deal with negroes than some of these
damned factory people from Aiken"
The men who have made and sworn
to the affidavit leave ont the qualifying
words "as farm laborers" and "some"
and give naked statement that does
and was intended to mislead.
Ny home is near Graniteville, and
from 1876 to 1884 I at various times
employed hands on my farm who had
left the factory Some of them were
as good bands and reliable men as I
ever had, but others were just as mean
and unreliable as could be- They
would come to me in January and
make contract for the year-stay un-
til June and hot weather and leave me
with the crops on my hands; and hence
! T said then what say now, that some
, of the factory element were not as de-
sirable as negroes to work on the farm.
That is ail there is in it.
Yours truly,
3, r. TILLMAN

Our esteemed friend and fellow citi-
zen, the Rev. Jefferson A. Sigh, dele
gate to the State convention and nomi-
nee for the Senate, seems to be in hard
luck, even amidst his recent victories.
That is to say his name hame has again,
on two occasions, been omitted from
the published list of delegates to the
State convention. When The Herald
and News acccidently omitted his
name, great hue and cry was raised
against the editor personally for such
omission. All sorts of charges and in
situations were made from the stump
about US, so we were told. We were
made the burden of half dozen or
more speeches by some of the stumpers.
Well, now here comes the News and
Courier and the Register and both are
guilty of the same sin of omission. We
respectfully call the Rev. Mr.. SIigh's
attention to this matter, and ask him
why he has not turned loose his yolley
Of os invective against these two editors.
Of course there is nothing now that
could be gained by doing so, but then
there is as = \ reason to abuse them
as it was to abuse US.
We warn these esteemed contem-
poraries not to do so any more.

did use the language attributed to him
in regard to the "factory class, only
be used it in modified form. He did
not remember the modification when
at Newberry, and ''as it was in the

but then since the campaign is over

the Governors recollection is better.
