A CANDIDATES GRATITUDE.
A Card of Thanks to Voters and the Sue
cessfui snd Defeated Runners
in the Primary.

To the Democratic voters of Newberry
County: I wish to return unto you my
sincere thanks for the nice little vote
you gave me on the 18th instant. It
was not quite as Large as I expected,
but here is my right hand to each one
who cast ballot for me. None of the
boxes gave me goose egg except "dear
little Maybinton." No. 6 did her duty
as she always does; and dear Glymph-
vile, your vote broke on our view as
an oasis in the desert; and the Mt.
Pleasant girls-I just have not the
words to express my admiration for
them, but hope they will all get good
husbands. I will bring some of No. 6's
best looking boys down; provided you
will let me talk to the older girls. Dear
Pomaria, if it had not been for one
pretty woman, I would have got 8
''goose egg'' there too. Better luck
next time. Fairviews hope I amused
you. Your girls are pretty, indeed;
but I s.am safraid you neglected to do
your duty. But I expect to visit you
again.
Now to the candidates: You who Sc
SOlCO th0 HlUtuSt wv JOOt Outys Aat
your Offices like true men, and never
let Newberry have to be. ashamed Of
you And to those of. the majority,
the defeated: Here is the right hand of
fellowship. Don't walk with your
heads down. but do your duty like men.
Make better fathers, brothers and hus.
bands; and if you were defeated you
can enter the field again IN two years,
and when you visit No. 6, just drop in
and see me. You will be always vel
come. I am at the same old stand,
selling goods and trying to deal cut
justice to the evil doers.
Now, a fiual word with the Reform
ers. With the exception of No. 6 and
few other places, you knifed me
handsomely, but I have this to say to
you. If you need my help to elect the
ticket nominated on the 2Sth, Just pass
the word down the line and I will be
with you from governor to supervisor.
Now boys, farewell until the next elec-
tion. Then I will try my partner
again and hope to meet with better
success. At least I will not be running
for two Offices at once.

To the Editor of The Herald and
News: In the last issue Of the Pied
mont Headlight there appeared a COM
munication from Columbia CORES
pondent in which an attack was made
upon me. The writer of the article
stated that i was in Columbia on the
10th of August working to secure the
nomination of Mr.. w. D. Mayfield for
State Superintendent Of Education as
;sgainst Mr.. Thos. W. Keitt Of this
eounty.
Now I think that every man in New
berry County who knows me will be-
lieve me wheE I say that all such re-
ports are utterly without foundation
and absolutely untrue. ~

toned, but what I did say and do, 80
far as the State Superintendent of Edu.
cation is concerned. was said and done
in the interest of Mr. Keitt.j
lean and will bring sufficient proof
TO bear me out in what I have said, not
only from members of the Newberry
delegation, but also from members of
other delegations with whom I talked
on the subject. 7 think that Mr.. Keitt
will also bear me out in what I have
said, and I know that Mr.. Mayfeld
felt that 7 was q friend to Mr.. Keitt, as
I had told him so.
I would not have mentioned this
matter but for the fact that have been
informed that the Piedmont Headlight
has a limited circulation in some por-
tions of this county, and some of It's
subscribers might be led to helieye 3

Congressman Wilson was renom-
mated by scclamation and with en-
thuiasm. On his return home to the
capitol Of West Virginia he was met
by the convention en- masse and the
people of the city and carried to the
convention hall where he was given
q grand ovation. It wasa proud day for
him. His people showed their appre-
citation of the noble and manly fight he
had made for tariff reform and while the
Wilson bill failed Of passage in the
Senate yet it was no fault of MI.

Tillman is the cohesive power of the

TilIman is the cohesive power OF the
Reform party and what has contributed
more to his cohesiveness than anything
else has been the Ill advised opposition
to him. Ifa majority Of the people OF
South Carolina want him to 60 to the
Senate we see no escape but to let
him 90. He is not our choice. He has
abused Cleveland and the Democratic
party. John Gary Evans is not eur
choice for Governor, but to be honest
we believe of the four men who came
in the race he is about as good as any.
The three men who have been nomi-
mated to represent Newberry County in
the Legislature are not the men We
would have selected even from among
the Reformers, but a majority Of our
people have said they want them, and
we can stand it if they can.
We have felt it our duty to say this
much and State our position as clearly
and plainly as possible. We shall not
quarrel with any one who does not agree
with US. Every man can think and
act as he pleases. We do not propose
to fight about it. Ifany one wants to
express an opinion our columns are
open to him whether he agrees with US
or not.
A good deal has been said about dis
affection in the Reform ranks. Our
notion about that is it will not amount
to much in q movement to vote for
another ticket in November. A few
leaders who failed to get Office, may
make good deal of noise, but when it
comes to votes the rank and file will
stand by what the September conven~
tion does. That is what has been
preached for the last twenty years and
that is what the people will do.
The Herald and News is honest and
sincere in the views here written. This
position is taken regardless Of conse-
quences or results but purely and
simply because we believe it is right.
We believe to put out another ticket
than that which shall be nominated
by the September convention will be a
mistake and can only result in defeat
and may do great harm.

The New Cotton Crop OF lses-s4.

Secretary Hester Of the New Orleans
Cotton Exchange has made report
showing that the cotton crop of ]S9S-94
was 7,549,S79 bales, or 849,4 bales
more than the year before, but the sig
,nificant thing about it is, that.notwith-
standing the large increase, the money
value of the crop is 81, ,632, 600 less. The
average commercial value Of the crop
was sS7 81 per bale, against $3.50 last
year. The total value of the crop was
S2S3, ,11s,0O0, against 1884, 10000 last
year, and 1898, ,812, ITO the year before.
Mr.. Hester says that with an average
of y cents per pound, which the crop
brought, planters az class would have
been bankrupt had they adhered to
their old policy Of all cotton and little
or no food crops, and instances the
fact that the cotton States
produced over S146, 100000 worth Of
corn, nearly all of which was con.
sumed where grown.
The commercial crop in bales ia given

the height of the position he occupies

We notice with sorrow and regret
that some anonymous writers have
been personally abusive to Senator
Butler in their communications to the
Register. In fact some of them are
insulting. This kind Of firing is not
only unkind but it is cowardly and not
manly. No good can come ofsuch un-
kind things. If any one has anything
personal to say Of Gen. Butler let him
act like a man and 60 to Gen. Butler
and say it. . .

who are working in hope of reward are

want to say to my defeated com.
rades, let US not abandon the principles
of Reform because we have been re-
warded with ingratitude by our party.
Let US rather continue to advance
under what we consider the banner of
liberty, and 90 down with it in the last
ditch only when there are none to bear
it sloft. But mark and watch the trail
tors in our own ranks, for here is where
our weakness begins. IA house divided
against itself cannot stand" I have
heard of one who tries to pose before
the country as prominent Reformer
who did all he could in private and
non-committal way to secure the defeat
Of one whom he knew TO be true Re-
former. You will hear from him before
many years. He%will try to reform
himself into office, and if he fails he
will 60 over as others Of his kind have
done. -... ..
In concluding this article I tender
my sincere thanks to the 448 Reformers,
who. appreciating my steadfast loyalty
to the platform Of our party, have given
me their support. I have nothing to
regret. They, with my home vote,
have fully vindicsted ine. Not a single
Reformer near my home voted against
me. Of course I did not expect the
Conservatives to support nee; they are
too wise for that, it is not their way Of
doing business
Finally, let US be true to our cause
without hope Of reward, except such as
will come through success of the prin- |
ciples which we advocate, for we must |
not forget that many, as good and true
as we, are enlisted in the same cause,
whose circumstances preclude the pos !
sibility of reward, save in the manner |
mentioned above. Should the Reform
meet with general success
for which we hope) the benefits accru-
ing therefrom, to US and ours, or to
those coming after US, should sink
motives and political sights
alike, beneath even our thoughts.

Az Blackvllle last Tuesday two more
lives were laid upon the altar of the
dispensary. If eoustables are to be
given the privilege to break open pack
ages at their own sweet will without
warrants and with no remedy against
them, truly our boassed personal liberty
and freedom are only q myth. In this

Mr. Editor, I wish to mention an
other matter which directly concerns
my candidacy for County School Com
missioner. A good number of my
friends are unaware Of the fact that the
pay Of the School Commissioner was
reduced at the last session Of the State
Legislature to q considerable extent.
Since the reduction no competent man
can well afford to give all his time to
the Office, as the pay would not war
rantit. .-'...
I can safely say that, ifelec:ed, will
be fully able to give all the time to the
Office that the law requires of me.
Respectfully,

ano osaesnhg.
me philosophy of the situation is
simply that the Reformers outnumber
us and have out7oted US, and We will
have to accept it and continue to argue
and reason with our friends and try to
show them the error of their way.
The only result of State ticket at the
general election will be defeat and
more solidly to unite the opposition.
The truth of the business is the oppo-
sitien to Tillman has been unwise and
impolitic and has done more to
strengthen him with the masses than
he has been able to do for himself.
The Reformers elected their legisla-
tive ticket in Newberry County by
about 200 majority. Suppose the fig
ures had been reversed and the Con-
servatives had carried the county? We
would have insisted, in that case, and
properly, that any failure to acsuiesce
in the result would have been bad
faith. Then it is our duty to act as |
we would demand Of them. We may
think they had poor judgment, and as |
a matter of fact we do think so, but we |
had fair test of strength and were
outvoted, aad we are are bound to ae-
cept the situation as honorable men.
The Herald and News does not pro-
pose to tear its shirt or do any fighting
for any body. bat having voted in the
psimaryEe feel bound by it even if
we did not take any oath to support
the nominees of the party. It seems to
US that every one who voted in the
primary is bound morally to stand by
the nominees Of the party even though
he did not vote the full ticket. How
ever, The Herald and News is not
the keeper of any body's conscience.
There may be no effort to put out an
othec ticketin the November election.
It has nosyet been done. As we see it
now we hope it will not be done. We
suppose much will depend on what
sort of a platform the September con-
yention puts forth. ..-. !
