Federal bayonets, was overthown,
and the State rescued from the alien
and the spoiler. AS soon as this
revolution was accomplished the old
ante bellum leaders sought to re-es-
tablish their autocratic sway. Poll
teal devices of various kinds We're
adopted to delude the people and
drive them into their old time supin-
eness. Negro domination was per-
petually held up as the inevitable re-
suit of agitation. For a time the
spirit of reform and the latent desire
and determination of the people to
rule was kept in check.
But at last, like some mighty
giant just aroused to a consciousness
of his power by repeated injuries,
the people aroused from their leth-
argy, and, trusting in their own
might, determined to be sovereign.
The election of B. R. Tillman as
Governor in 1890, accomplished by
the general uprising of the people
under the leadership of Tillman,
Stackhouse and others, was the cul.
mination of this great social and
political revolution and one of the
legitimate results of the reconstruc-
tive and evolutionary effects of the
wal of 1861. The economic condi-
tons prevailing elsewhere of course
also played their part. This ire
sponsible conflict has, however, we
hope, about ended. In this brief
picture of new South Carolina, Col
Stackhouse occupies a conspicuous
place in the work of reform and re-
Mobilization. As one of the people,
risen from their ranks, their cham
pion, he deserves their everlasting
gratitude and remembrance"

After pronouncing his eulogy on'Col.
Stackhouse, he said:
"Born and bred in old South Caro-
lima, yet he was a true representative
Of new South Carolina, typical Caro-
linian of the new faith and new
school born of the civil revolution Of
1961-'65, which wrought wonderful
changes in the social, political and
industrial condition of the State.
Had that revelation never occurred l
hazard little in saying that the de
ceased would never have represented
South Carolina in this body. The
condition of affairs in the State be-
fore that revolution was peculiar, re-
sulting from the ideas of the Old
World transplanted in the new and
the attempt to ingraft them in the
society and policy of the colony.
"ln the course of time an aristo
cracy based on a slaveocracy domi-
mated old South Carolina and COM
pletely controlled her social, political
and industrial destinies. This neces-
sarily created two classes as distinct
as the Patrician and Plebeain orders
of Rome. The large slave-owners
became the rulers and ofice-holders,
and the masses of the people were
regarded as unfit to govern. 1t was
an intolerant, defiant and uncompro-
missing tyranny, su~ppressing free
speech, free thought, and indepen-
dence Of action. There was no ire
pressible conflict then, because from
force of habit, education, and a dis
inclination to assert their sover-
eighty, the middle class succumbed.
Qualification and secession were
the legitimate fruits of this condi,
ton of things. This is a true pic
ture of old South Carolina, of which
Hayne, Calhoun and Rhett were true
representatives. The abolition Of
slavery was the destruction of this
system. The rich and powerful Of
the old became the poor and weak Of
the new. The workingman OF the
old regime became the enterprising
and successful citizen of the new.
The shackles of caste were removed
and the artificial distinction of classes
abroeated. The farmer and work
ING man claimed their God-given
rights and boldly and defantly en-
tered the political arena. This
changed condition did bring about
an irrepressible conflict between the
the reconstructed orders of society.
During Federal reconstruction
there was a truce between the old
political leaders and those devolved
by the new order of things. In
1876, by the united and patriotic
efforts of both, harmonized for a time
by the common instinct of self-pres-
ervation, the infamous ~carpetbag
government, pinned to our backs by

should not yet abandon the work
we were in cold earnest once. With a
little reasoning and determination on
our part we will reform our lines,
renew our efforts and be, collectively
in dead earnest again. It is very
true that while we plowed theindus-

But now all his we'll laid plans and

we will add, as long as there is life
there is hope and we have abundant
evidence that there is life yet-plenty
of it. The fame has only burned

innocent looking pile of ashes. All
that the embers need is a little stir

Washington, D. c., Januray %
This afternoon, in the House, was
devoted to eulogies over the late
Congressman Stackhouse, Of South
Carolina, Tom Watson was one of
the eulogists. Young Mr.. McLaurin
of South Carolina, was another. AT
ter paying a tribute to the memory
OF Mr.. Stackhouse he made some elo-
quent remarks about the down trod-
den farmers; declaring in favor of a
"free ballot and a fair count affirm
ing his belief in equal rights and
privileges to white and black pro-
ducers alike. He deci&r, d that eight
millions of human beings, negroes,
just because they wi he'd 10
help the Third party in making a
protest against discrimination against
the producing class were not allowed
to vote freely or to have their votes
fairly counted. Mr. Watson
talked for some twenty or thirty
minutes and in closing his remarks,
paid a pretty tribute to General
Stackhouse.
M'LAUR1N's SPEECH.
Mr.. McLaurin's speech was his
maiden effort which was a fairly
good one. He spoke of the State
having been controlled by an aristo-
cracy before the war and said that
the abolition of slavery had given the
working people and the farmers an
opportunity to assert their rights.
He described the leading men IN
South Carolina before the war as an
indolent, defiant and uncomprising
set of tyrants. But the war removed
the shackles of caste and the artit-
cial distinction of classes had been
abrogated. The farmers and work
ing men had claimed their God-given
rights and boldly and defantly en-
tered the political arena. The old
aristocracy had held negro DONNA
ton perpetually before the people as
inevitable result Of division. For a
time, by these means, they had held
the people in check, but at last, like
some mighty giant, the people arose
from their lethargy and elected Ben
iamin R. Tillman as Governor in
1890. His speech was eulogistic Of
the Tiilmaaites.

has been asserted that IAN indepen-
dent is worse than a radical" yet the
fact is, that the independent thinkers
and voters are the only hope Of this
nation. They are the one to whom
we should direct our attention: be-.
cause truly they are the salt Of the
earth, one of them properly educated
and convinced by the truth, is worth
a thousand hide bound ~partisans,
who idiotically boast that they never
scratched "a ticket and would vote
for a 'yaller" dog if their party NOM
mated him.
Ii my pc itical party dominates a
man that I know to be an enemy to
my principles I will scratch him and
refuse to vote for him under any con-
siderations. ( never have and never
expect to compromise my principles
for fanatical ~partisanism. The in
dependent conservative class r the
only M that any sect, organization
or party works to secure, If every
body was OF the mossback persuasion,
dyed in the wool partisans there
would be no use for organization,
newspapers or public speakers.
Those partisans who would vote for
the yellow dog need no literature or
stump speaking to educate and en-
tighten them; because their blind
partizan prejudice will neither let
them e or learn, they too are
welded to their idols and should be
let alone. They neither deserve or
get any credit from those who fatten
and roll in luxury on their blind par
tizan stupidity.
Had the Republican party contain

who had the wisdom to think for
themselves or the manhood
repudiate the most corrupt political
party of modern times the outlook to
day for the South would be gloomy
indeed. But that thousands of them
did, in a very practicable and forci'
bic manner, prostest against the
fraud corruption and rascality Of
their corrupt party at the ballot box
on the 9Th of last November is a
hopeful sign that u government
may yet be resorted to the people,
and in return restore to us the rights

Of the people that if even designing

Wholesale Robbery.

INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 19.-A special from Jeffersonville. Ind. says the towns of Sellersburg and Hamburg were raided by five masked men, who first called on John A. Sellers, saloon keeper, and at the point of revolvers compelled Sellers and bis wife to sur render about $500 in cash. The robbers next visited the house of Dr. A. R. Hauss. where they secured $40. Other houses in the town were then robbed of various amounts Hamburg was next visited, when Mir. Jones was relieved of sum of money. A pack of blood hounds at Seymour has been tele- graphed for and there Is much excite ment in the neighborhood. The rob. bers are supposed 10 be either neighbora or professionals.
