I, Gen. Farley %withdraws from the
gross, to represent this, the 4th Dis
trict. In doing so he fires a last
shot-two columns and a half in length,
but harmless, as he makes good his
retreat and leaves the field to the foe in
serried ranks. Paper bullets are sure
ly blank cartridges. The generals
farewell shot Is in good temper, show
ing a christian spirit, and he is to be
commended rs he turns his cheek to
his friends, the enemy. 1t Is pleasant
to contemplate the Military arm of
tho service in so christian a spirit.
The General states that he has been
"bosscd" out of the field by Irby, Can't
AMI Wilson, which aggregation he
chiractcrizes as a ring. His card Is
addressed "To the Public" This is a
misdirection clearly, as he has reform
el the reformers and is the author of
the household that repudiates him, &C
cocding to Gen. Farley. He lays it all
on Irby and excuses Tillman, and begs
that Tillman be not held responsible.
Among us descendants of the En-
ghshers we accept Warwick the "King
Maker" as q worthy Knight, a fellow
OF infinite readiness to fight, u fast
stander-by of his frinds, one who took
care of himself in the while, appropri-
ating the good offices, but finally dying
on the field like a game cock, and leav-
ing his head on the pavement OF st.
Pauls, caring nothing. Farley p arts
from Reformers and appeals tothe pu b.
lie, as a kind of epistle general to the
heather. We are bound to have peace
now when the plumed Knight quotes
uncle "Remus" and sings a song of LOO
Loo" He goes to join Shell in the
shades of peace, and peace to his
ashes.

There is a live tournament going on
In Charleston as to representing that
~ancientburg in the Legislature. The
aspirants for the two vacancies in the
Senate and House are double the usual
quota. There has been q disposition
on the part of the Dominant element
to cut Charleston Off from the State
and to leave her to herself as q sort of
independent bailiwick; finding it i'm
practicable the Tillmanites of the last
Legislature turned her over to the ten
der mcrcies Of the Sea Island negroes.
She seems now to be anxious to take q
hand In what is going on in the State
and will send good men to the Senate
and House. We are glad to see this:
If Joe Barnwell comes to the Senate
there will be at least one mar of sense
in hat body. The good people of
Aiken and Abbeville and Edgefield i'm
imagine they T. the State of South Car
olina, with Marchant and Bob Hemp
hill and the handsome Zimmerman,
but when it comes to paying the taxes
OF the State and keeping up her credit,
the Macedonian cry goes out to Char
lesion to come over and help us.
1t rejoices the hearts of good men in
these hills to find Charleston is still a
part of what remains OF the old State.

Notes OF the State Suggesting
Convention.

John Gary Evans, of Aiken county,
was suggested as the candidate Of the
II ,formers for the office Of Governor.
DIR. w. III. Zimmerman was suggested
for Lieutenant-G Governor. A majority
OF the Convention favored naming an
all around ticket, but Gov. Tillman
laid down the law otherwise. The OPP
position to Evans turned the other
cheek and voted the suggestion"
unanimous. The Hon. w. ID. Evans,
moved as the Platform Of the Rotor
mers In this State the Ocala Platform
which went down with a hurrah. One
Slattery, of Charleston, wanted q flag
to vote under or fight under mot set
tled) and it was denied him. He
should have had his flag. A Charles
ton Reformer was made temporary
chairman and q Colleton man perma-
nent chairman. Tt Ia not necessary to
name them here as most Of The AD-
vERTIsER readers do not keep scrap
books.
Mr.. Evans made q speech, which was
much applauded. 1t is to be hoped
that the speech was imperfectly re-
ported, as 1t may be read and then the
reader will rise from the reading and
he can with little difficulty digest the
material OF the speech. We trust there
is more in the aspiring gentleman than
this forensic effort indicates. DR.. Tim
norman was brought forward and made
q modest little talk promising to hold
up Mr.. Evans hands. Then all was
done. Then Gov. Tillman was intro
duced with much enthusiasm. He
promised to go to pastures new and
green infested with q unicorn or uni
corns and to carry his pitchforks shar-
pened. Evans is a young man and o
lawyer. Zimmerman Nis- a doctor OF
mediciho--not-faws. No signs of dis
sSent were breathed; the opposing can-
didates taking their chastisement
meekly under the majority rule. This
is q country where the majority can do
its worst and the minority must fling
up it's hat. EllerbeA and Tindal, the de-
featod candidates, dare farmers, pillow
boys and wool hats, Peace to their
ashes.
Thus goes down the curtain on the
second act Of the great South Carolina
farce Of, 1891.

WASHINGTON July ii. The fret day
cf the conference OF the Democratic
conferees Of the two houses was with
out practical results or visible progress,
so far as can be learned. The confer
ence continued for six hours and was
uninterrupted even for meals, but
when an adjournment was taken after
.. no item la the bill had been finally
passed upon and agreed TO. The day
was devoted 30 : general discussion OF
the main features OF the bill and the
principal points of difference between
the two houses. The conierees on the
part OF the house OF representatives
pointed out the radical change I'm the
polity involved In the senate's depar-
ture from the
Frse Kaw Material Piassorua,
snd from the ad valorem system. and
asserted that the senate bill was neA &kI
that the country demanded in the way
Of tariff reform. The senate represen-
tatives replied in the effect that il
might be tue and might be admitted
ly individual members to have proved
the most radical bill that could be
passed in the senate, and announced q
dissemination tostand for the bill prac-
hcally as 1t passed the senate. They
asserted that to make any concessions
for free raw material might endanger
the passage Of the bill, when returned
to the senats, just as to have stood by
the house bill in this respect In the lee
ginning would have probably
Prevsatsd Zee Passage
In the frst place. They also contendsd
that material reductions or radical
changes from ad valorem to specific
duties would delay IL not endanger
final action upon the bill.
The house members, while admitting
the force OF these suggestions, said the
action OF the house might also prove
uncertain.
There had been hope that the COM
mittse would make Its first report to
the house not later than next Friday ON
ysrDal chsnges TO which all could
agree, but the conference brought ont
that the differences were too wide 10
hope for this preliminary report.
