SOUTH CAROLINA POLITICS.

Ex-senator Hampton Declines to Sup
port tho populist Platform.
COLUMBIA, Nov. 2.-Since the Farmers
Alliance of South Carolina voted that as
prerequisite to receiving alliance votes all
candidates in Democratic primaries next
year must pledge themselves to support
the Ocala platform. indorsed by the
Populists at Omaha, against the platform
of any political party. the belief is con-
tirmed by the declaration in the silver
debate by Senator Irby, who is State
Democratic Chairman, that If conditional
repeal should prevail he and his people,
the alliance men, would refuse to follow
Democrat leadership further, and he
would vote against any tariff reform
measure introduced in behalf of the Ma
tional Administration.
The probable result of this policy was
indicated in a letter from General " ade
Hampton, Federal Commissioner of Rail-
roads, to the editor of the Columbia State:
My own Judgment is clear that the time
has come when the line should be drawn
between those who stand on the Ocaia
platform and those who stand on that ofthe
national Democracy. No man who up
holds the former can claim properly to be
a Democrat, and unless our people choose
to support the fallaciessof the Ocala ad-
herents, or to be led into the Populist
party, true Democrats of the State should
organize and maintain the principles of
the Democratic party as set forth in the
Chicago platform. If my Democratic
fellow-citizens agree with me that this is
the true policy to be adopted, l shall at
once proceed to organize National Demo-
cratic Clubs throughout the State, and l
shall exert my utmost efforts to keep the
State where it properly belongs-in the
great Democratic column"

LONDON, Nov. 2.-On October 30th T.
T. OConnor, President of the Irish Ma
tlonal League of Great Britain, sent a let
ter to the General Manager Of the Asso-
c1ated Press criticising the ParnelI wing
of the Irish party and accusing it of de-
serting Gladstone. To-day John Red
mond, leader of the Parnellites, writes to
the General Manager of the Associated
Press in reply. He says the attitude of
the Parnellites has been misrepresented;
that it is not the promulgation of a new
policy. and that the policy of the Par
nellites toward the Liberal party is pre-
clsely what it has been all along.
The Parnellites are willing to support
the Liberals as long as they remain true
to the pledges of Ireland. but are ahso-s
lutely independent, and mean to let them
know that in paltering with home ruler
they convert the ParnelIites from sup-
porters into opponents. 1t is not the ins
tention Of the Parnellites to throw Glade
stone out of power and restore Salisbury.
What they intend is TO give the present
Government TO understand their exist
9nce depends on Irish votes, and that the
price to be paid therefor is adherence 10
heir pledges on the question of homo
rule.
The reason for calling attention to this
tact is that now the attitude of the Liberal
party toward home rule has entirely
changed since ParnelPs death. Gladstone
Lhen declared that Ireland blocked the
way, and the only way 10 get legislation
tor British interests was TO first pass
nome rule. But now it is proposed TO
uang up home rule and take up long
list of British reforms, forgetting the
promises of strong fight if the House of
Lords rejected the measure, in order, as
they claim, to be able to carry the next
election.
Redmond admits the truth of this
claim, but says it is the intention of the
party 70 see that only the proper kind OF
British reforms are proceeded with, and
hat elections are not indefinitely post
9oned. Otherwise home rule will be
lung up indefinitely. He declares ii the
Newcastle programme is carried out home
rule will not come up again in tive or six
years. He points out that Gladstone is
4ong would be to relegate it to the mercy
of some one untriendly or less able to
effect his desires than Gladstone. There
ore Ireland must continue to block The
way.
Redmond declares that if the Parnell-
ties can have the assurance that the dis
solution of Parliament will take place at
the end of 1884, they will be content to
help purely British measures duldng all
the next year.

POPULIsTs PLEASED.

Elated Over the Prospective Results of
the Fight for Unconditional Repeal.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-THE Populists
in Congress are elated over the prospec-
tive result of the fight for unconditional
repeal, and claim that it will mass the adj
vocates of free silver in the South and
West under their banner. They say that
they expect to capture the Presidency in
1896, and are already seriously discussing
candidates. There is strong sentiment
in favor of Jerry Simpson, and PETER has
a following; but Allen Of Nebraska, who
held the Senate in tifteen-hour speech,
seems to have charmed the members OF
his party in the House to such an extent
that he is now enjoying a Presidential
boom. Watson of Georgia is spoken of
for Vice President.
