The SENTINEL would not have opposed
Governor Tillmon for q second term if one
half the platform on which he was first
elcc.cd had been carried out by his admin

lrby and Talbcrt trying 10y concilation
and fidelity TO their pledges to serve the
masses, th"y began by arrogance and boss
ism, to cntrcnch themselves in political
power. They did not want sala-
rics reduced They got up schemes that
had not even been limited Mt in the plat
form on which they were elected, and en-
dcavorcd to foist them as laws ,inpn con-

The farmers movement never meant
taxing tho poor man three dollars for the
privilege of wearing his head on his shoul-
dcrs: 1t never meant assessing his labor

from any white democrat the right to vote

JOIN ,T3sy; SsIsorEsxSr0S.


II you want to Gc on the winning side in
the election in August and III November
join Cleveland, Stevenson, Shcp;ard and
Orr club. The ticket is gaining ground
every day. When the campaign first open-
cd Governor Tillman sail he would carry
every county in the State, bat now he
modfies that somewhat and says that he
will carry enough to elect him. lie may do
it, but we will have to sec the returns
from the election in August before we will
believe it. There are very few counties in
tho State that will give him very large
Majority Of the votes; and in fact there is
not single county but what will DC very
near evenly divided. Two years ago the
Governor had Il complete walk ovcr but
many of those who voted for him then
did 80 because they believed him to be
patriotic man and really intended to use
every effort to help them but they have
seen that he Is entirely 81 different kind of
man and will not do for Governor, and
therefore have left him. We know of
many such men in this county and they
can be found in every county in The State
We know OF place not n thousand miles
from here where month ago only twelve
ants or conservative democrats could be
found and today thero is one hundred. The
country people do not want him for COVER
nor because he wants to take the election OF
their officers from them, because they do
not want TO be sold to road ovorsecr like
slaves; because they do not want to pay a
three dollar poll tax, and for many other
good and sufficient reasons. And they arc
the kind OF people that make a country.
They are the backbone and support and
stay of our country and when they see ef-
forts made by those in power to cnslavc
them they resent it at the ballot box.
Governor Tillman would have all such if
he could, deprived OF the right to vote
for he is in favor of putting property or
educational qualification on voters If
either OF these measures should I've q law,
how many honest and good men in Pick
chs county would have to stay ut home on
election days? The people will not trust
such man rs this with power. Suppose
Governor Tillman is elected, it will virtual.
~ say to him, "pass all these laws, its all
right. We want to pay three dollar poll
ta2i we want to DO sold like slaves to the
road oversccr; abolish tho lien law, for we
want to be hirclings and slaves to the land

Farmer Ilarsil and the Tariff.

Here is another illustration Of the opcr-
4tl"n OF our unique tariff law, says the
Boston Herald. Mr.. Marsh owns and oc-
cupics farm which is partly in Vermont
and partly in Canada. His pasture is on
me Canadian side while his barn is on the
vermont sidc. Some time ago Farmer
MarSh bought ten horses in Canada and
brought them over the line to his Vermont
farm paying the regular tariff duty on the
animals. Subsequently he turned them
"ut III his pasture, and as they straycd
across the line while browsing Farmer
Marsh was called upon to pay II new duty
OF $50 per head when he undertook to
bring the animals back to his barn. The
BOARD OF general appraisers having been ap-
pca!cd to by Farmer Marsh, that solemn
body allirmS the decision Of the collector.
who will continue to keep All eye on Far

Sich, but Hard for the Poor.
Governor Tiilman advocates the So poll

l. Ii is at variance with the theory of
taxation. viz: that he who has much pays
much; he who has little pays little; he who
has nothing pays nothing it is in-
equitable and I'm Just.
.. because large per cent. of the ne
GrorS would cvadc it-cvcry white man

3. Because it makes the burden too great
upon the poor. 1t is easy for the rich to
pay--it is hard for the poor. The man
worth 800 pays the same as man worth
500, 900.
4. 1t makes the poor pay for the cduca-
OF the rich, while the reverse should be.
8. Because if 50 is better than 81, then
% would he better than So, and $40 better
Than so. Ii taxes are to be raised in this
way, abolish our present system and lew

because many negroes would go to iail

the conservatives arc perfectly justifable in

While we believe we can win, there is
nothing i'll defeat of which we should be
ashamed. Let us keep conscience and the
record clear.
