IRBY'S NEST-FEATHERING.

WASHINGTON, July 3l.-The South
Caroliniaus l have met to-day appear
Interested in the news from South
Carolina. One said: "You know
something remarkable is always going
on in our State. This news about the
triumph Of the Reformers in the coun-
ty primaries yesterday is not surpris-
Ing. But the statements about new
deals for high Offices come rather in
that way. AS l see you have not seen
these statements, will explain that
they refer to proposition now mooted
to change the Supreme Court of the
State into Court of Appeals with
Senator Irby Chief Justice Of tha
bench and transfer John Gary Evans
from the executive mansion at Colum-
bia to the United States Senate at
Washington. l am inclined 10 think
Irby is favorable to this idea. He has
never felt easy in his seat as Senator
since he discovered that his influence
here was not beginning to be common
surate With his expectations 81 even
with the influence he eXerts in South
Carolina. The most astounding part
of the proposition, however, is the
suggestion Of the tWenty-one-year-old
stripping, John Gary Waits, Inspector
General Of the State, as Evans success
sor in the Governors chair. The little
knot of politicians, composed of Till
man, Irby and a few others, seem
anxious to- keep the power among
themselves, and the charge has been
openly made by Conservatives and
some Reformers that something IS
rotten in the State Of Denmark and
they intend to hide the evidences of
corruption"
Many Democrats here regard with
serious disapprobation the sweeping
suffrage changes contemplated in South
Carolina They may say that the rigid
Australian ballot would be ample TO
secure any State from the ills of igno-
rance and the dangers of vote pur-
chase. If it were the intention 10 dis
franchise the negro in large numbers

TaE problem of disfranchiSing
colored voters without disfranchising
some whites is incapable Of solution,
and the delegates to the Convention
might SO we'll rscoguizs it. The only
plan, in our judgment, that will work
successfully is au educational and
property qualification, pure and simple
this would disfranchise g few whites,
but it is the only way Of settling the
suffrage question. The disfranchised
whites ought to make the sacrifice for

Constitution, and then we could have
honest elections without forever cry
ing negro domination 1t requires
considerable courage for delegates to
advocate any plan that will disfran-
chise a single white. We confess that
it is painful to have TO resort to it,
but as Senator Tillman says the Miss

not disfranchise som, Of both races

question is to be settled, let it be
settled. No people will ever have
political peace, if they rely upon fraud
to contrel the elections. Fraud in
elections demoralize our citiz 'nship,
and it is time to stop it.

I am the son Of missionary. My

a small parish in Oxfordshire. He had
already been some years married to my
dear mother when he went there, and he
had four children, of whom l was the
Youngest. 1 remember family the place
where we lived. 1t was an ancient long
eray house, facing the road. There was
a very large tree of some sort in the gar
den. 1t was hollow, and we children
used to play about inside of it and knock
knots of wood from the rough bark. Veal
slept in kind of attic, and my mother
always came up and kissed US when we
were in bed. fused to wake up and see
her bending over me, candle in her
hand. There was curious kind OF pole
projecting from the wall over my bed.

the gates. It was a gloomy-looking
place, with tall yew hedge around it;
but in the summertime some flowers
grew round the sun-dial in the grass

and Squire Carson lived there. One
Christmas must have been the Christ
mas before my father emigrated, or
should not remember tive children
went to q Christmas tree at the Hall.
There was great party there, and foot
men wearing red waistcoats stood at the
door. In the dining-room, which was
paneled with black oak, was the Christ
mas tree. Squire Carson stood in front
of it, He was a tall, dark man, very
quiet in his manners, and he wore
