'G'NIINahN'S HETTEHe.

AS THE JOURNAL goes to press,
tho press dispatches bring the
news that Senator Tillman has
written a lettor to tho Columbia
Register, defining his position.
Senator Tillman has always been
equal to any emergency, and his
friends are pleased that no comes
to tho front at this state of the po-
litical game, in which his enemies
are boasting and attempting to
place HIM in a false light before
the pooplo.
His advice at this time will be
acceptable and will bring constcr-
nati.> to some Of the self ap-
pointed leaders in the Reform
ranks, who are evidently trying to
break up the Reform movement
and reinstate the old ring crowd.
Along with the above news
Bcomes tho tidings that Senator
Irby left Washington for Laurons
sfor bitter fight in his county, as
Refforts will be made there to pre-
vent his election as delegate to the
State Convention. If he should
Fail in his own OVID county, then
his political prospects are blighted

ONE. TIMING Az "A T'VIHE2.

Politicians are always Oh the
watch for an opportunity to ad-
vance their own interests, and
nothing pleascs thom better than
to divert the attention Of the
voters from their own record, by
assailing some other public Of
fetal. An illustration of this Oc
ours in tho call of Chairman lrby
for y moeting of the State Demo-
cratic Executive Committee,
wherein he covertly attacks Senator
Tillman. The conservative papers
easily caught on to the aliusion and
made tho most out of it possible
This tumult about q bolt IS pre-.
mature ana it will be timc enough
to discuss thnt matter, when the
question really con[ronts the pco,
plo. From the present indications,
it appears that the gold bugs will
be forced to decide that question
for themselves, and, indeed, it
seems they &ro already considering
it. They arc SO accustomed to
having Things their own way that
they will not likcl y submit to tho
majority, should their moray fail
to capture tho convention. Let
them do th@ talking about q bolt,
tho silver Mon can carry tho con-
vention. il they stand together and
make the fight inside the Demo-
cratic party. If they arc not
strong enough to do that, they
scarce V stand a chance under 4
new and Independent organization,
as little hrlp can hc expected in
the way OF ucccSsions from tho
Republicans party. Its members
are too loyal and shrewd to give
up q certainty for an uncertainty,
as will be the case in the ovent of
a split in the Democratic party.
The Rciormcrs cannot afford to
imporil their prospects in State
politics by divisions among
them in national matters. The
conservatives care little for nation
al politics, and would rejoice to
see an effort mado by the leaders
to carry of tho people into an IN.
dependent movement, for then
they would have all excuse to in
stitute similar proceeding IL
State politics. Some of thon
have already shown an inclination
that way and would be too wei
pleased to justifp their conduct il
the past by such a course on tn
part of Reformors. They az
watching for and encouraging d
visions, and the JOURNAL is di!
posed to suspect that some of thes
would be Reform leaders are worl
ing IN their interest. 1t is bette
to let these ambitious and reckl"
politicians go to private life tho
follow them to certain defeat.
