ONE STRAW.

The election in Newberry last
week resulted in the selection of
Moorman as against Wyche for
! the State Senate. This is claimed
as ayiictory for the Conservatives,
although Moorman was as consery-
alive in his opposition to Tillman
as in his advocacy of the other
side. It may be called dog-fall
sand .Moorman may be classed as
an aH-round, up and down, re-
formed Conservative, or conserved
reformer. If one straw could be
relied upon to determine the way
the wind is blowing, we should
say the wind is just now blowing
sButlerwards. The following from
a Conservative paper shows what
Conservatives think of the matter:
The Conservatives have won a
notable 9: victory in Newberry
county. d. CT. Wyche, the Re-
form candidate being easily beaten
in the primary by Mr.. Geo. S.
Mower, the Conservative cam
didate.
The election was a special one,
ordered to ill the vacancy in the
/ ssnatorship from that comfy,
created by the election of Senator
Sigh as Railroad Commissioner.
Is will probably be said, with
much p1ausib bilitY insisted on, that
the Reformers were busy looking
after their grassy corps and paid
but little attention to this by
election. However this may be, it
must be confessed that no effort
was spared by the Reformers to
getsout the full vote and secure
the election of Wyche. The Co
lumbia Register hase been sup
porting the candidacy of Wyche
very earnestly fact which goes
to show that the Reform leader
at the Capital looked with concern
on the contest. Is this one Of those
straws that show the direction of
the Wind2 We will.have to wait
and See but this much we know
{ nov, and that is that Col. Mower
viii make a good Senator, and
that the cause of Reform will be
just ae safe inls his hands as II
would have been in the hands Of

He made the startling discovery
that Engineer Ebenezer Craig was
dead at his post. The fireman
quickly reversed the engine and

TILLMA.N Or BUTLER.
isUnder Which King Bezonian?
Speak or Die!'

An esteemed correspondent
makes the following query:
aIf Butler and Tillman should OPP
pose each other for the United States
Senate and canvass the county next
year, which sone would carry the ma
Iiority? I have as much confidence in
your political sagaclty and foresight
as any man in the county,
ALI thanks for the compliment,
but the question is one we cannot
answer. f-our querist will how
ever answer one question for us
we will answer his. Our question
is this: How will ex-C Congressman
Geo. D. Tillman and Congressman
;Talbert stand as between Gov.
!Tillman and Senator Butler? If
they should both go for Butler he
would carry the county, if they
should both. go for Tillman the re-
suit would be the other way. If
oae went for Tillman and the
other for Butler then would come
the, tug of war, and itswould make
no difference which one espoused
Tillman and which one Butler, 80
far as the tug of war was concern
ed. Should they stand off and
take no part in the election Till
man would carry the day. This is
based upon the presumption that
the present followers of Gov. Till
man wouldcontinue to follow him
in his new aspirations. You may
think this rather a violent pre-
sumption, and perhaps it is, but
Just now we cannot do anything
but make presumptione violent
and otherwise. the situation in
Edgefeld county with the proba-
oilities and possibilities as we see
hem are as follows:

seeing, getting there politician,
Butler has, with one possible ex-
ception, no equal in the State.
Governor Tillman.

Ben Tillman is not personally
popular in Edgefeld. He is sim
iiply a hard hitter and a straight
hitter i'll politics. He has no mag
netism about him, except that Of
earnestness. He never asks about
|syour folks" or kisses baby
clean faced or dirty faced. He
isn't made that way, and the
leopard will not, cannot, change
his spots in the year of grace 1894.
.rillmanism in Edgefeld county
| is stronger than Tillmar, and yet
the voters inclined that way do not
see exactly how they can show
their preference for the one and
their not especial preference for
the other. If Butler can show
them how to do this, he will win
a good many votes.
The big stream Tillmaniam, in
Edgefeld is made of good many
little streams, brooks and rivulets,
all of which, up to date, have
emptied into and onto Tillmap
not all of which can he. absolutely
direct or control.
Do not misunderstood us. Till
man is strong, very strong, in
Edgefeld county, bat it's because
Tillmanism Is strong, and, to de-
feat him, Butler must find a crack
somewhere between Tillmanism
and Tillman and get in it and
split things. Can he do it?
We do not believe that Uncle
George Tillman will be in politics
next year, but great men some
times live in their children. Sup
pose that in 1894 Capt. Jim Till
man be put on the reform State
ticket for Adjutant and Inspector
General. In such event Uncle
George would probably not antag-
onize the reformers' alias the Till
man for United States Senate,
ticket.
Congressman Talbert is an un-
known quantity in this business.
Tits generally supposed he will go
for Butler, but there is no assur.
ance of this. If the Alliance puts
up a candidate for the United
States Senate, Talbert will be the
man, or rather we should say if
the Alliance should put up can
didate, and there is any likelihood
of his being elected, then Talbert
will be the man.
In conclusion, we will give our
correspondent the following as our
deliberate judgment in the whole
matter of the race between Butler
and Tillman: Watch your Uncle
quarters; watch your Cousin Ben
jamin on the third quarter, and
