I appear again before your readers as a

We bad several weather "'prophets," but
derived most profit from the splendid

ing now that we will have some more
showers soon.

arc Informed, was productive of much
good.

time with the son of Mr.. J. 81. Breszeale
for. the purpose Of having DR.. Calhoun
treat the eyes of little MI. Breazeale. We
are glad to report his eyes very much i'm
proved.
We are obliged to confess that the editor
of the Adeocate was more easily caught
tran we supposed at first. The point we
were especially driving at was that the
advocate would more readily publish an ar.
ticle assailing the Democratic party and
advising people not to vote for Grover
Cleyeland, than to publish an article set.
ting forth undisputed Democratic princi-
Piles. We would like to know which OF
two articles Is most Democratic: Hamp.
toms letter to the State, or "a wall from
the Northwest?" and which would haYe
tended to increase the advocates reputa-
ton for Democracy most? In the one We
have a grand cid man, true and tried
Democrat, man whose time, talent, and
we might add money, has been held at the
service of the State In WEI and in peace,

have demagogue, man away up in the
Northwest, asssiling. true and tried
President since the war, the only man
who has had enough compassion on the
South to look down and see what is good
for US. The letter of Wade Hampton
would occupy space and would turn the
guns' of the Advocate on B. r. Tillman.
No, the advocate can't publish that But
the "Wail from the Northwest" "turns
the guns" in the right direction I suppose.

the great Democratic leader. eyes," says
the Advocate, 1--WE publish this and it Is so
good we don't think it necessary to COM
ment." When the Advocate failed to pub
lish Hampton's letter, we supposed that
probably it didn't want to publish any
thing setting forth principles with which
it didn't agree, but then we thought surely
i didn't mean to endorse "Wail from
the Northwest" but it has acknowledged
that they publish only such articles as
"turn the guns'' in the right direction. So
we are obliged now to infer that the Ad-
vocate endorses these Third Party articles.
We have got no desire to get into con-
troversy, and now give the Advocate the
floor and hope 1t may succesd in clearing 6
away this Third Party taint.
Let us all say three cheers for Sheppard
and Or, "peace and unity and another op-
portunity' to lift the State credit out of
the mire and again place South Carolina
on the high path she has been occupying
for fourteen years previous TO 1890.
