This was the "whoop" in 1890. If the
Governor ever was on this track he has
been ingloriously switched off by an insa-
table ambition. The organs assert that he
cannot be opposed on the ground of the in
jury he has done to the farmers by his
broken pledges and his abuse of all who
honestly oppose him. The SENTINEL op-
poses him, because in its judgment. he
does not know how to be Governor. If he
knows how to abolish Offices, reduce sala-
rles and taxes, he has never attempted it.
We are not opposed to the movement, but
TO the man who is riding it. He is trying
10 ride the bull right over the best interests
OF South Carolina into the United States
Senate. If we cannot head the bull, we
arc gong to try to get him to fling that
rider who has never denied himself ono

when he gets done riding him will leave

MARCH COSyII>EvOS

Ihe friends OF Governor Iillman gcncr-
ally arc opposed to the March convention
but they congratulate themselves that il
is an acknowledgement that the March con-
Ventlon of 1890 was right. There is not
an organ in which this has not appeared,
and IS the thinnest and weakest argument
we nave ever seen. The allegations Of the
respective platforms show that they widely
di1fcr in their conditions and PURPOSES
one was called to divide, the other to unite
the democracy. One was called to wound,
the other to heal, the one to elect Tillman
The other to defeat him. One profcsscd TO
Tree the democracy in order to cnslayc il
the other proposes to enslayc II 70
make 1t free. The first was supported from
1ai,h IN promised reform; the other is
supported through fear of an impcndino
disaster alike 70 the state and the party,
The first was call to class, the latter is
to "whosoevcr will" The first was called
under free open liberal party rules, formed
Tor the benefit of the whole party. The
latter is called under narrow captious par.
tisan rules, formed for the benefit of fac
ton. If you want to unite the party and
save the State 60 with the conservatives
The stronger this movement, the stronger
Will be tic nominee of the democracy
whether Talisman or Tillman.

The standard of Political morality must
be raised Politics is too close to the wei
fare OF the country to be poisoned with
dishonesty. 1t is just as important for a
man to be honest in politics as in finance
and religion. Neither can long continue sue

well set dollars by stealing as to get votes
hy indrcction or deception. We want to
sec men conscientious in all things. Poiit

The local talent certainly won laurcls last
Friday evening in presenting "Ten Nights
in Bar room" The house was filled to
o"crtowing. The adaptation of the rcr-
formers to their respective parts had been
arranged with c0nSumatc skill and perfect
Judgment. We do not know who did this
but il was done right. MIR. Jake Martin
was called in just few day s before to take
the part which had bcccn assigned to Mr.
Watt lludgcns, who was unexpectedly
called away on important business
for the railroad ut another point. In an
ama!ucr performance nothing can contrib
ute so much to its success as fitting each
individual to the character he is to repre-
sent. All the performers received rounds
of applause. 'Dynamitc' was a roaring
success, but we heard about Il half a dozen
boys remark "thc best thing we had was
the Thomas Cat piece" This was a comic
song by Jake Martin.
The Mountain Echo Brass Band furnish
rd clcg mt ard most appropriate music for
the occasion. 1t was led 10y Mr.. James
Parsons, its prCccptOr, who is ccr'auly an
adept both in the science and production of
music.
The cash receipts of the evening were
about $1,000.

Is the present Governor of such immense

to advance the cause of reform since he
has been in power? Have The industrial
and financial interests Of the State been
promoted ard fo>trrcd by his admnistra-

plight, financially or aGricul,urally, since
he assumed the rcins of government! Then
