please Rev. Mr.. Sigh. He was afraid
the horrid ants would find ou; how
many Reformers were in the county,
and he wanted the tabulating 10 stop,
and insisted that was not his motion.
Mr.. Keitt then moved to proceed to
tabulate the vote, and the roll call again
proceeded.
Mr.. Sigh wanted to know if the Mt.
Bethel club, the only Conservative club
represented, had taken the pledge. He
was told they did to support the nomi-
nees Of the August convention. He
said that it seemed to him the present
plan of tabulating the vote was giving
away some important Information and
be wanted the horrid ants to be ,eft to
guess at thugs. He moved to wipe out
all that had been done.
Mr.. keitt: will state, as member
Of this convention, l am entitled to all
the information abont the Reformers
that I can get and that can be found,
and must haveit.
Rev. Mr.. Sigh: One of two things
must be done. We must stop this tab
ulating, or we must exclude all but
Reformers.
Mr.. job Hughey then moved that
all but delegates and members Of Re-
form clubs be requested to withdraw.
Mr.. A. J. Gibson explained the posi-
ton of his club. They were Conserva-
tives, mostly, but they intend to stand
by the nominations.
Mr.. Duncan was in favor of taking
the bull by the horns. But few men
attend to their political duties. The
balance stay at home. He had hoped
that the Conservatives would come in
with them. There was more talk on
the subject by Rev. Sigh and others,
and the question of being unlawful to
hold secret political meetings was again
raised. Mr.. Keitt wanted the law
brought up, but Mr.. Sigh said it didn't
make any difference about the law.
1t was not intended for white men.
So Mr.. Job Hugbey's motion was put,
and there were few ayes and few
noes, but the chairman said the ayes
had it, and this reporter gathered his
belongings and departed. The further
account of what was done is left to
others, as he writes this from Sumter.
LOCKED THE DOORS.
Al er the doors had heen locked, with
G. NJ. Singley, NJ. L. Kinard and T. B.
LeitsZey as doorkeepers, no one was
admitted who was not g Reformer.
Representative Blease was invited
out. He was excluded on the ground
that he had not joined a reform club.
THE VOTE IN THE PRIMARIES.
The votes polled in the club prima-
ries last Saturday was tabulated by the
convention as follows:

Col. D. K. Norris is recalcitrant re-
former. They tried to get him toswal-

he kicked like steer and will never

low Alliance medicine. he says he
will stand for the State Senate on this
line even if the ringsters trot out an

How Did SwiItou Club Get Ip?

To the Editor Of the Herald and News:
While the County Convention was
Wrangling and ''remarking" about the
st. Luke's clubs, on last Monday, there
was little matter that seems 10 have
been overlooked and that we can't un-
derstand. And that is the ways and
means by which the SwiIton club, of
Sligh's, was admitted without word
in any way. The constitution of the
party says that no new club can be
formed without two-thirds' vote of
the county convention assembled
Now when was the vote taken, ad-
mItting this club? II it has never been
taken, then what right had that club
to send delegates and those delegates to
be seated? If it did have the right to
send delegates, then what right had
they, in the formation of this new club.
to use the old CLUB roll of the Mt. Tabor
club? The Mt. Tabor club still stands,
as there has been no action taken to do
away with it. We want some light on
this subject. W. AUG. SHEALY.

COLUMBIA, S. c., August 13.-Coun'
ty conventions of the Reform or Till
man faction, to which delegates were
elected in reform club primaries last
Saturday in accordance with what is
known as the Colleton plan, were held
in all counties of the State to-day, and
delegates were elected to the Reform
State Convention which will meet here
August 18th, to nominate Reform
candidates for Governor and Lieuten.
ant Governor and probably an entire
State ticket.
Reports from the conventions are
meager, but the election of sufficient
delegates to nominate John Gary
Evans by an overwhelming majority
was foregone conclusion.
The reports generally indicate that
between 30 and so per cent of the IS, ,00C
Reform votes cast in 1892 participated
in Saturdays club election.
Richland County's convention
elected ten delegates and endorsed
Evans. Anderson, supposed Fllerbe
county, went for Evans in the coDven-
ton, Evans receiving $50, Ellerbe 290
and Tindal 35 votes. Newberry con-
'vention elected Evans delegates by
tWo-thirds majority. The Laurens
convention voted unanimously for
Evans. Evans had walk over in the
Lancaster convention. Williamsburg
voted in primary for Evans 606 to 3l4,
and an Evans delegation was elected in
the convention. Aiken, Evans's home
county, instructed for him. Two
thirds of the Fairfield convention was
for Evans and elected an Evans delega-
ton. Less than 800 participated in
the primaries. Marlboro convention
elected an Ellerbe delegation, Ellerbe
receiving POI votes, Tindall 81 and
Evans IS. Florence elected an Ellerbe
delegation. Clarendon, Tindall's home,
endorsed Tindall, giving him $50 to
2lS for Evans. The Fairfield, Florence
and Marlboro conventions instructed
their delegates to vote against the State
convention making any nomination,
and in favor of leaving the contest 70
be fought out in the general Demo-
cratic primaries August 18th. IF de-
feated in this proposition the delegates
are to participate in nomination by the
Reform convention. The majority of
the counties heard from favor the
nomination of full State ticket.
Marion county, where Ellerbe lives,
instructed for Ellerbe. The secretary
Of the convention wires that of 800
Tillmanite votes cast in the primaries
on Saturday, Ellerbe received 1875,
Tindall 5 aid Evans none.
Later reports show the following
additional counties for Evans: Able
vile, Orangeburg, Charleston, Sumter.
York, Darlington, Oconee, EdgefeId,
Georgetown, Lancaster and Hampton,
Spartanburg.
The following counties are for Eller-
be: Pickens, and Chester Green
vile, Barnweil, Beaufort, Lexington,
Colleton, Union and Chesterfield have
not been heard from, but all, with the
possible exception of the last, are re-
garding as certain for Evans. The con-
vention will consist of 800 delegates.
OF these Evans will certainly have 264
probably 270; Ellerbe A and Tindall 6.
Evans is therefore sure of election or
the first ballot.

The County Convention in its much
talk omitted two very important things
that should have been attended to-.
The County Constitution is incon-
sistert with the State Constitution in
one or two particulars. 1t should have
been so amended as to conform to the
State Constitution.
Our impression is that it was the
duty of the County Convention to
elect a member of the State Executive
Committee from this county.
We do not see how these two
methods can be attended to without
another convention.

THE REFORM CONVENTION.
Business Transacted with Closed and
Locked Doors-Some Lively Discus
sions-The Herald and News
Man Invited to Withdraw.

The reformers held their convention
on Monday. The Rev. J. A. Sligh and
Mr.. Job Hughey didn't want their
'senemies" to know what they did and
they succeeded in getting the conven'
ton to pass resolution excluding
everybody but delegates and members
of Reform clubs. Here was conven-
ton of Democrats going to work to
help nominate Democratic candidate
for Governor, from which Democrats
were excluded. Not only not allowed
to participate, but not even allowed to
hear what was done. Yet when they
get through and put out that candi-
date, if those who were excluded do
not help to elect him, these same men
would be ready to talk about lnde-
pents. That is the freedom and the
liberty the Reform movement has
brought US.
But we suspect that the Rev. J. A.
Sigh and Mr.. Job Hughey did not want
the people to know how much Reform
bad dwindled and neither did they
want the public to know what tricks
the ring had used to hoist upon the
Reformers, a candidate for Governor.
The old ring rule crowd never resorted
to such measures as these. They never
held convention with closed doors
and excluded Democrats. But we sup
pose it is all right, so long as it Is right,
and in the historic language OF Nc
Lendon, "Let 'er roll"
When the resolution was passed The
Herald and News nlau picked up bis
hat and his note book and proceeded
to vacate.
The editor of theVoice was delegate
and the reporter of the Observer being
Reformer, were. allowed to remain.
The ring is on top now and whatever
the bosses say goes. It is for the peo-
pie to say how long they want such
freedom. We are going on printing the
news, sitting serenely on the fence and
watching the procession pass, even il
it does sometimes pass with closed
