NOT FOR GAIN.

A number of the opponents of the
present State ring who for one reason
or another opposed nominations by the
recent convention are receiving good
deal of rather sticky molasses and
water fattery. They will find, how
ever, that their present position will
not save them from abuse and uisrep-
resentation if at any time in the future
they may dare to lift hand or voice
against the ring, inside the so called
Democratic organization or otherwise;
and that if, like General Richbourg,
they happen to mistake refawm tatfy
for sincere good will they will share
the fate of that much betrayed soldier
and find themselves as thoroughly dis
liked and boycotted as the most unre-
constructed, impenitent and persistent
bolter, r'cker and rebel of US ALL
Greenvllie News.
The Herald and News opposed the
nomination of a State ticket in opposi-
ton to the ticket put out on the 10Th,
and, more, we were opposed to the
holding of the "True Democratic" con-
vention. We do not expect to be saved
from abuse and Misrepresentation by
the ring, and we are not fooled by any
"waser fattery," whatever :hatmay be.
We did not take this position with the
hope of Office or reward of any kind.
There is yet left. We hope, such a thing
as doing what one sees and believes is
right and for the best Of the State,
without the hope Of gain entering as a
factor. We have asked DO favors of
the ring and do not intend to ask any
and neither do we expect to be re-
warded for anything We have said or
done, further than the satisfaction
which one feels for having done what
was the right thing to be done as all the
facts appeared to him. The Herald and
News does not undertake to speak for
anyone but itself. If we should ever be
foolish enough to seek Office we do not
propose to apologize for the positions
We have heretofore occupied. The true
newspaper should not be the blind
slave of any faction nor even of any
party. No, brother, it was not for
gain.

Senator David Bennett Hill has been
unanimously and with great enthusi-
asm nominated by the Democrats as
their candidate for Governor of New
York.
He did not want the nomination but
because the unanimity with which it
was given him be could not refuse.
His speech to the convention was a
broad gauge one and liberal in spirit
and temper and did him great credit.
He is big man. By making the fight
for Governor he has all to gain and
nothing to lose. He spoke kindly of
Cleveland to the convention and seems
to have the united support of the Demo-
Gratis ofthe State. New York is doubt
full State and if be should be able to
keep it in the Democratic column he
will stand fair chance of being the
Democratic nominee for President in
1896 and if he should be defeated for
Governor be goes back to his place in
the Senate to await his time. The
Repub blicans have nominated Levi P.
Morton, Vice-President under Mr. Harri-
son, as their standard bearer. he is a
clean man and has the "barrel."
The fight in New York will be q
stubborn one bat we expect Mr.. Hill to
win.
