full discussion OF the situation. lasting four

Whereas the people Of the State at the
last election did, with the consent and ap-
proval Of both political factions, vote upon
me question OF prohibitions; that under
standing Of agreement to abide the result OF
that vote was general and accepted by most
of our people, and that in said election pro-
h,bition received large majority OF the
votes, thereby showing that prohibition OF
demand OF the people of South Carolina; and
whereas the Legislators OF our State. chosen
at the san election, with the understanding
as above set forth, did, contrary TO the de-
mand OF the people, enact law which, while
it prohibited the citizen from selling liquor,
made monopoly or the business of, in and
by the state.
Now, therefore, in order 10 carry out the
wishes Of our people as expressed 1t the
election two years ago, and in order to heal
the terrible dissenSiOn and strife II our State
in order that peace and prosperity may
spring up under the benign influence OF pro-
hibition. and in order that our peop may
once again become happy. united people.
we. the State Prohibition Executive Com
mittee, do hereby T, quest all the Democratic
voters OF the State " no Will sustain prohiHi-
ton in the coming election TO assemble at
their respective county seats on the first
Monday in june lex. and elect In each

The Reformers met in Columbia last
week under the Colleton idea plan and
issued an address and called reform
convention to be held in August. II
looks IS if things are to be packed in
the interest of Jno. Gary Evans. It
looks also as if a bigger ring has been
made than could ever have been con-
ceiyed by the old oligarehy. There will
be very little time for State campaign
after the August reform convention,
FOR only two weeks intervene between
itand the general primary. This plan
does not leave the choice ola candidate
for Governor to majority of the De-
mocratic voters but simply to major
ity of the reformers. The effort seems
to be to rule the conservatism entirely
vut of the game.
The address is very weak paper
made up of platitudes and generalities.
But if the reformers are satisfied for
the bosses to dictate to them what they
shall do and how they shall vote it
suits US.
We shall 60 along publishing the
news and laying the facts before the
people. -

TILLMAN TO BUTLER.

THE State, 10th.]

Governor Tillman now predicts that
he is going to defeat Gen. Butler in the
race for the United States SenatorshiE
in the coming primary election in this
State.
But here is the way be expressed il
yesterday when newspaper represen
tative asked him what he had to say
about the Senator's recent interview:
'All have to say is that I am Gov
ernor and he is Senator. have been
at my post of duty, while be has been
away from his post of duty and gallop
ing around the country letting off politi'
cal electioneering screeds. The contro'

the people and by the people next
November and l predict that they will
give him furlough to 60 home and re-
main there-an indefinite furlough."

The United States Court has decided
the Agricultural Hall case agains-
tate. The reader is familiar with the
case. How}the property was sold and
bought by q Mr.. Alexander Of North Car
lima, who made the first payment and
wanted to pay the whole amount in
cash and offered Blue Ridge Scrip, and
how Gov. Tillman played the Andrew
Jackson act and had the building
guarded and refused to give possession.
We said at the time that it seemed to
US that the proper thing to have done
would have been to refuse to take the
Scrip and when the second payment
was due made the purchaser pay it in
good money or sell the property. The
State will have bigamount Of rent to
pay AID possibly have no quarters
for its liquor business.
But then the tax payers can stand
the racket so long as it is done in the
interest of and for reform.

Gov. Tillman issued proclamation
on April 5, declaring that there was no
longer an insurrection in the counties
of Darlington and Florence. In it ne
saws the Commanding General has
lust informed me that the insurgents
have dispersed" Gen. Farley reached
Darlington Saturday, March 81, and at
once notified the Governor that there
was noinsurrection at Darlington at that
time. That no troops were needed and
that the civil authorities were able to
preserve the peace. There is discre-
pancy here. Some one is either mis-
taken or there has been misunder-
standing of some kind somewhere.

We publish this week very calm
and complete review ofthe situation al
Darlington by Gen. Butler. He went
over there and personally saw the
state of affairs. We invite every one
to read it.
Alongside of it may be seen Gov
Tillman's version of the situation IN a
speech delivered'in Columbia and also
his proclamation taking charge OF the
police of the cities and towns. And
also Mayor Dargan's statement. Gov
Tillman it must be remembered never
got closer to Darlington than Colum-
bia. The other two gentlemen were
on the ground.

time FOR McpERArIoN-

"This is a good time for moderation
and truth" This is the first sentence
of an. editorial by A. B. Williams re-
viewing the Darlington situation. It
is true. But all time is good for mod
Grafton and truth. These two quail
tications are good at any time. He
thinks the circumstances demanded
the calling out of the militia to 60 to
Darlington and that, therefore, the
Governor did right in calling out the
troops. He was on the ground as one
of the militia and ought to be better
posted than We are, but we have never
thought there was any necessity for
calling out the militia, but We have
never questioned the right of the Gov
ernor to do it. The law leaves it
largely to his judgment, and if his
judgment was that the circumstances
demanded it, then it was his duty to
call them out. When called out we
believe it was their duty to respond.
The Darlington people met the militia
in good spirit and temper and the boys
hao more of q picnic than war.
But no good can come now of dis
cussing that side of the question.
What we want now is moderation Oh
all sides. And by this We do not mean
any sacrifice of principle, bat no good
can come from intemperate speech or
action. We believe in every ma
standing up for that which he believes
to be right. We are no advocate of
policy at the expense of truth or prin-
ciple, but man can maintain his po-
sition by reason and with the exercise
of some moderation.
Mr.. Williams closes his review with
the following, which we heartily en-
dorse:
IF Governor Tillman will curb bis
tongue snd pen and temper and let his
sense govern him before emergencies
come there need be no more enlergen-
cies; and if people on our side will do
the same, be governed by conservatism
and look at both sides of questions be-
fore acting We will soon be in far better
shape than we now are. Moderate peo-
pie may get together on a basis of
mutual concession of prejudices and
interests, without sacrifices of principle,
controlled by common patriotism, and
the troubles of the present time may
soon be over and extremists powerless
to do harm. AS it is they have unli-
mited power and, too often, complete
control. If somebody would give US
about six thousand good, strong, large
gags with power to use them we would
start on Governor Tillman, leaving bis
depot speech as the record of his pur-
poses and hopes, and apply them
equally in both factions and would
guarantee to have peace and general
good feeling in the State inside of six
months. Maybe we would apply a
small one to The Greenville News.
IF some such idea can be spread
abroad and generally accepted as the
result of the Darlington ''insurrection"
the death and sorrow, bIoodshed and
danger there may yield for this good
old State new life and happiness and
safety. May God in His mercy and
wisdom grant it."

It was very unkind, to say the least,
for Gov. Tillman, in his speech to
chide the people of Darlington for not
lynching McLendon, who as they
thought, was helpless prisoner in
their hands, though he had caused the
death of two of their best citizens. II
was heartless thing in the Governor,
but then possibly he has repented, fol

The State constables have all re-
sumed their daily vocations except
Cain and McLendon, who are held on
the charge of murder. Gov. Tillman,
it is said, has ordered them to wear
their badges where people can see
them and objects to having them called
"spies." He has offered heavy re-
wards for the capture, with proof to
convict, of the party or parties who
demolished the dispensaries st Florence
and Timmonsville.

THE HERO OF ANTIETAM.
Monument in Honor of General
Mcclellan.

Philadelphia, October 24.-Just after the
death, in October, 1885, of General George
B. Mcclellan, movement was started in
Philadelphia to erect statue to the memory
of the Hero of Antietam," Success did
not crown the efforts of tthe admirers of
Little Mac" but they persevered and, in
1889, an appropriation of $4,000 was secured
from the Pennsylvania legislature. BY cou-
tinued hard work $4,000 additional was
raised by popular subscription, William
Aston of New York, and William Frazier of
Philadelphia. each donating $1,000, and this
afternoon the statue was unveiled.
The ceremonies attendant upon the I'M
yelling were of the most elaborate
character, the principal feature being the
grafton of General William B. franklin of
Hartford, Conn.,, who commanded a division
under Mcclellan during the Rebellion, and
who was considered by Mcclellan to be one
of his ablest officers. General Franklin's
praise of this distinguished son of Penn
sylvania,' was unstinted.
Immediately alter the unwilling parade
of eleven thousand United States marines
and sailors, Pennsylvania and New Jersey
state militiamen, Grand Army men and
others, passed by the statue and gave a
marching salute to the reviewing officer,
Major General Schofield, comman der-in-
chief of the United States.

Johnson rode the course in heavy,
black tights and two thick sweaters
which tended to impede the free play of
his muscles. He was paced by a
quadruplet. The first quarter was COW
cred in II 2-5ths seconds. crowdine
closely the best record for a thorough

was on down grade quarter; in the
second quarter, up hill, he went the dis
tance in rs 2-5ths, making the half in

LOOK OUT FOR YOUR COTTAGES.
Deserted Summer Houses Robbed at Small
Point.

Brunswick, October 24.-Dr. Anderson s
summer cottage at Small Point was entered
recently and valuables to the amount of
nearly $3.50 were removed. Among the
many things missing were fine Parker
shot gun, Marlin rifle, 800 loaded shells,
two pair of marine glasses revolver and
several articles of clothing. Three large
baskets were also missing and it is thought
that they were used for carrying the
articles from the cottage. Who the burglars
are remain mystery. but it is thought that
the two men who have been on sloop
yacht laying in the harbor for the past two
weeks are the guilty ones. During their
stay the yachtsmen carried on no..conyersa-
tion with any of the natives with the ex-
ception Of boy, of whom they purchased
Holsters. Following the night that the
robbery is supposed to have taken place
these men with their little vessel disap-
peared as quietly as they came, leaving be-
hind no trace of their whereabouts. 1t is
supposed by some that they are cruising
along the coast, stopping occasionally
whenever an opportunity presents itself to
rob the unprotected cottages. 1t is quite
evident that the work was done by profess
sional, MS the cottage appeared to be all
right when the doctor arrived. 1t is thoug hit
that the guilty parties opened the front
door with the aid of skeleton KEY.
