The Real Issue Of the Campaign,

David A. Wells in the September Forum.
The instant that natural conditions.
lawful purposes and just limitations of
taxation are violated the instant that
the State takes property from its citi-
zens that is not needed or takes inequi-
tably that which is needed, that instant
the exercise of power becomes matter
of:will and might, and not of law and
right. The greatest evils that result
from the abuse Of taxation, and their
magnitude and tendency to increase
are so great as to make the boast Of in
dividual freedom on the part of citizens
in respect to the full ownership and
control of their property very little
more than an unmeaning phrase. Shall
these abuses be recognized and tolers-
ted, and tendency to further progress
10 this same direction be encouraged,
or shall they be met with stern and un-
compromising protests, immediate
check, and ultimate complete arrest
and prevention? These are the real
o5estions at issue at the present time
between the two great political parties
Of this country, and the situation ex.
emplifies anew the lesson of history
tFat all the great contests for freedom
from the earliest times have originated
in,abuses Of taxation.

The Outlook for Farmers.

AS the farmers, prosper SO prosper Dill
other industrial enterprises. Aoah-
doned. half-tilled farms, empty cr'os
and barns, dilapidated dwellings, poor
" clad and poorly educated children
make a poor country. The DOCTORS
merchants and all other professions
suffer. That is plain, paipaple lac'
understood by every one who Is not an
idiot.
What is the outlook for the farmers
of Spartanburg county ip this the pe-
ginning of the business year? They are
not IS much in debt as heretofore
Their fertilizer bills are one-thlrd less
than last year. They have used great
er economy in buying. 1t will take
less money to square accounts this faii
than it has in years. 49,,
The prospect is that the farmers Will
sell much more corn than they will BUY
That is there will be ten corn sellers 10
two corn buyers in that class this year.
Half of them, or more, have saved their
seed oats. Many of them have their
seed wheat and flour enough for home
use. Then the outlay for these things
will not be very heavy. The greatest
drain will be for bacon and flour.
What is the chance for money to
meet obligations and keep the family
and farm going? Surplus corn will
bring so to 80 cents in the fall aad per
haps 60 to 70 in the spring. Sorghum
syrup will bring 25 to 80 cents in the
markets and 40 to so if retailed on the
farms. The outlook for cotton is about
six cents on the average. Best grades
may bring seven. A one-horse farmer
that has so bushels of corn, eight bales
of cotton, barrel Of syrup and s!oso
worth peas, potatoes and the like, may
calculate on gross amount Of S225.OO.
Out of this guano and store bills will
have to be paid and if the one-horse
farmer is a renter it will make big
hole in the $225.O0 to pay the rent.
Let each farmer make his own ngures
He is near enough the close Of the year
to estimate his crop. He can tell how
much of it will be required to set him
even with the world. After all the tg-
uring, he will not find big surplus re-
naming.
The lesson taught is about as fol
lows: Sow an abundance OF small
grain and stop the buying of seed oats
and flour. Raise sorghum syrup for
home use and little to sell. Keep a
pig, raise your oTn meat and let the
children see the smoke putting from the
racks of the smoke house again. Haul
in leaves and make big pile of com.
post and enrich your lands. Save peas
enough or else go out and gather on
the shares, and plant every corn row

The Third Party Movement.

1t has been known for months that
there is a strong sentiment in favor Of
the Omaha platform and the Peoples
Party in this State. 1t is also abso'
lutely certain that the party would
have been organized here if it had not
been for certain concessions on the part
OF our leaders. The white voters were
eld together by the cohesive power OF
the canvass, but as soon as that was
over and the pressure was relieved the
Peoples party suddenly came to the
front. The Register of last Friday
gave the following information about
the coming party:
1.-The often-predicted and long-expec-
ted Third Party electoral ticket in
South Carolina will soon become a re-
ality. The man. who will lead the
movement, or at least it's inception, is
]. w. Bowden, the managing editor OF
the Cotton Plant, and the author OF the
famous anti Cleveland editorial in that
paper, ,Ipublished after the nomination
of the standard bearer of the national
Democracy. Mr.. Bowden for many
months has been the leader of the move
ment in the State, but it was hoped
that he would not antagonize the Dem
ocracy, as untold complications will
arise thereby.
eyes," said Mr.. Bowden in reply to a
question from a reporter yesterday af-
ternoon, 1--WE have gone actively to
work, and by the first Of October a
Weaver and Field electoral ticket will
oe duly in the field-probably before" !"
"How will they be nominated?" he
was asked.
II have received several letters advis-
ing the convention system, but do not
favo. it as it entails too much expense.
But they will certainly be in the field
by that time; you can be assured of
that fact"
Twill you run State ticket?"
mo; we will take no hand whatever
in the State and Congressional contests,
and individually we will favor the cleo
ton of Governor Tillman and the Re-
form Congressional candidates, and will
vote for them. We are consistent in
this, too. Governor Tillman stands on
our platform in State affairs, as does
the Reform Congressman, and we are
perfectly consistent in voting for them.
We propose supporting men on the
national ticket who likewise support
our principles-that is all there is in it."
The Carolina Spartan. [volume] (Spartanburg, S.C.) 1852-1896, 1892-09-07
I'm the race you certainly do not ex.

"In the race you certainly do not ex-
pect your ticket to be successfulTs
That is not the question. We are
fighting for principles. Nevertheless,
the third party is much stronger than
many imagine, and it will surprise the
politicians, judging from the temper of
the resolutions of the March convention
Even third party men do not realize
it's full strength. | believe there are
10000 third party supporters in the
State to-day. We are going to work
organizing at once, and you will see
that the country people will flock to
our support when the battle cry is
raised.n
What kind of campaign will you in
augurate?"
This is not decided. Weaver is COM
ing to South Carolina soon and will
stump the State in our interest. When
he will come and where he will speak
we do not know yet. We do not expect
Watson over, but feel assured that he
could do some excellent work. The
general plan of our campaign is unde-
cided."
What stand the Cotton Plaut will
occupy is a matter of much interest.
Bowden, an announced third partyite,
cannot write Democratic editorials, and
Stokes, a staunch Democrat, cannot
endorse the utterances of his subordi-
nate. From the present outlook some
body will step down and out. Which
will it be? An interesting fact connec-
ted with the case is that the Cotton
Plant is the only Alliance official organ
in the United States that is supporting
Cleveland.
Mr.. Bowlen seemed very much in
earnest as to his utterances and was
very careful in his statements. 1t is
we'll known fact that he has lately Or
ganized tNi ird party clubs in various
places, and there are several in full
bloom throughout the state. Inere
are politicians in different sections who
have been waiting for the call to join
the movement, and this announcement
that ticket for electors will be put in
the field seems the battle cry.
In further conversation he said that
the third party agitation was started
for the sake of unity in the ranks, and
not primarily with hope of success.
He says that he expects nothing but
warfare from the present Reform lead
ers and believes that Governor Tillman
will lead the fight upon them They
look for help from nobody who took a
prominent part in nominating candi-
dates in the late primaries.

Hubbard, Price & Co., received 1901
estimates of the cotton crop up to Oct.
is, 1892. They ranged from 5,555 555 to
9,999, 800. Very few Of the estimates
went to the nine million mark. The
average of the estimates was 7,773,5'O
These we're made out by cotton men
and mercantile firms in the main. 1t
shows how little people know about a
cotton crop after it is made. Two
prizes, one of $1,000 and one of $500 will
be given to the two persons whose fig
ures are closest to the actual crop as
made up by the New York Financial
Chronicle. Their report will be made
up this week.

Moving machines are getting to be
about as dangerous as the cotton gin,
While the latter goes for hands ap4
arms, the former is built for asvigorohs
attack on the legs. While Brother
Bernard, of the Monastery in CASTOR
County N. c., was running a mower
last Thursday he was thrown from the
machine and fell in front Of the knives.
He received a severe cut on one leg.
The same day, near Golightly in this
county, Perry Smith, colored, received
a bad cut on the leg from a-mower.

South Carolina State bonds dropped
from So to 92t Immediately after the
primary. That was a shrinkase OF
$4,000 on six millions. But the State
can stand all that. These are 6 per
cent bonds Next year they have to be
refunded at percent. Tillman claims
that hecaa refund the whole amount
at par without paying brokers and
bankers a single cent. We hope the
Governor is correct and that he will
float the bonds at par.

Itmay be bitter pill for the Ocalaite,

but they must be brought up to the
scratch and made to vote right. Let
there be no lodging.

The Legislature, if they regard the
voice of the majority of those who voted
on the prohibition question, will have
to pass a sweeping prohibition Law.
Let there be no drug store barrooms,
no domestic wine factories, no saloons
on wheels. A halfway prohibition law
will be worse than open saloons under
the restriction of law.

George William Curtis. one of the
most distinguished newspaper men of
this country died last Thursday. He
has been the editor of Harper's Weekly

his 69th year.

Complete returns have been received
from all the counties except two. They
can be approximated. The vote for
prohibition is about 35,932, against it
26352 Majority for it $3.50. The vote
for Sheppard and Tillmsn is about ST.
563, Tillman's majority is about $4,000

feated in the State primary. There
should be no kicking, or bolting. Till
man and Tilmanism should be accep-
ted without anv opposition He has
the Legislature. They will carry out
his measures. Let all the promised re-
forms come. If they give us more
money, better prices, lower taxes and
greater prosperity, the Conservatives
will come in for full share of the bene-
fits. If some of the measures are not
good, the Tillmanites will have to take
their share of the bad results. We are
all in the same boat, with Tillman ss
Captain, engineer, helmsman and gen
eral manager. Let US stick to the boat

sons who, in the general election, vote
for an Independent, Republican, Third
Party man, or any other party except
the Democratic party, shall not be al.

1.-THE Carolina Spartan.
WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 1892.
The Issues Settled by the Cam
paign.

After the election, Governor Tillman
asserted according to the Register, that
the people had endorsed the issues dis
cussed during the campaign. They are
the enactment of a new railroad law
that will admit of no appeal from the
commission; radical change in county
government; a change of the pub lc
school system including the So 90 poll
tax; constitutional convention with
qualified suffrage implied. The people
by very large majority have endorsed
these measures and the legislators will
not be true to their constituency if they
do not carry them out. The minority
must submit gracefully. 1t is no use
to raise any opposition, for although
they may have forcible arguments, they
will not receive any hearing The bet
ter plan is to raise no factious ooJec-
lion to any of the administrator
schemes. They were unmistakably the
issues in the State campaign. In this
county the issues were about as follows:
The poor people against banks, rail
roads, factories and town influence
They seemed to think that much oil
their trouble was caused by the iDtiu-
ence Of these corporations. The tight
was made on those lines and settled so
far as decided majority of votes can
settle a question. Benceforth we may
look for the control of all these corpo-
rations by legislation. These Issues
being settled by the people there Is no
use for the minority to raise any objec-
tions to these measures. The better
plan will be to fill in with them when
it does not initiate against conscience
and principle and assist the majority
in carrying out their reforms. That ls
sound Democratic doctrine.
The Carolina Spartan. [volume] (Spartanburg, S.C.) 1852-1896, 1892-09-07

When you come to think about it,
the Conservatives can get consid derable
comfort out of the fact that the Ocalaite
of this State will have to vote for
Cleveland and the National Democratic
platform. While the Antis are gulpipg
down Tillman in November, the Till
NANTES will have to swallow Grover
Cleveland, if it kills them. 1t will do a
poor Conservative some good. to watch
them cake their medicine.
