Now the republicans are giving Jim
Simpson great raking over for his
failure to carry the state, and many
Of them say, if Cy Leland had only
been at the head Of affairs, the result
would have been different. Leland
had control of the national end of the
campaign, and his portion ran even
poorer than did Simpsons. The peo-
pie were against the principles rep
resented by these men, and no change
in the management of the campaign
would have altered the result.

We rather like the tone of Senator
PETERS remark when he said, "Let
the republicans have full swing,
and it will then be easy to fix the
responsibility" The spirit is the
right one Give the republicans full
power to pass any measure they see
fit, and the sooner they take such &C.
ton the better. If big chunks OF
prosperity go flying about, the oppo-
nents Of the republican party will
catch on to some Of them, and if the
other result comes, the independent
voter will turn them out.

$IIo,OOol

County Clerk Thornton and his
assistants Lyman Matteson and Arch
or Gibbs, are finishing up the tax
rolls, and are footing up the amounts
required to be paid by the people Of
this county for municipal purposes.
From the records we find that the
people will be called on for $4,000.
The total valuation of the county is
$2,259,813. OF the tax to be raised
the railroads pay $l8,7O61O. The
uses for the money raised by taxation
are many. The various funds call for
kbo amounts shown halow.

q amounts shown below:

In addition to the above, quite an
amount has to be raised to make up
delinquencies in other years,
To pay this large amount the peo-
Pile have half crop of corn, and a
lot of confidence. The population is
little over 1000, so the per capita
is about ten dollars per head.

AbBeville All Right.

Mr.. J. Townes Robertson of Alb
beville is an original Farmers
Movement Reformer. No man in
South Caroliua has been more 10y
al to the principles of the move
ment, or more lisinterested in his
advocacy of them. 1t was such
men as he who first gave the move
ment dignity, force and character.
NJ. Robertson is in Columbia at
tending the meeting Of the Grand
Lodge of the Knights of Honor.
A Register reporter asked him
Yesterday how Abbeville stood on
the bolt question, and he said Alb
beville was usually level-headed
and conservative and to be de-
pended on to do the right thing;
the present emergency offered no
exception to the rule; Abbeville is
gong to stick to the Democratic
party. He said there were some
hot heads there as elsewhere, but
cool counsel would prevail. The
enunciated and defen-'
ded by The Register, he remarked,
found general acceptance in Abbe-
vile County.-Reglster.

Tillman at Denver.

We clip the following editorial
from the Denver, Col, Da ly News,
II shows what is thought of Till
man in that Populist and Repub-
liean stronghold.
"Denver extended a welcome to
Senator Tillman last night, non
partisan, spontaneous and splen-
did in proportions. AS Mayor Nc
Murray gracefully said, it was be-
cause the senator had dared to
stand for the right in the highest
forum of The country that he, a
Republican mayor in Colorado,
extended public greeting to a
Democratic senator from South
Carolina. 1t was for that reason
that thousands of, Republicans,
Populists and Democrats, men and
women, stood shoulder to shoulder
last evening. Senator Tillman
has been a participant in many
magnificent gatherings, and the
central figure in not q few, but his
heart must have swelled with Just
pride when he faced the multitude
that came to bid him welcome 10
a state-in which he has never be-
fore set foot, and which honored
him solely because of his advoca-
cy of those immortal principles
on which alone the fabric of the
nation may securely rest. There
is no narrow sectionalism in the
breasts of the people Of the West.
The patriot, from wherever he
may come, here finds himself at
hone. In this broadness of feel
ing, this recognition of the identi-
ty of interest of the people, wheth-
er they be of the North or the
South, the East or the West, is as
surance of the carr est American
ism that is planted deep in the
great heart of the country, and
which will in the end redeem and
preserve the republic.

Have Given 1t Up.

The New York gold-bug papers
have practically admitted that the
Chicago Democratic convention
will be controlled by the silver ell
ement of the party by probably
majority Of one hundred. Even
the News and Courier of this State
says (italics ours) under the
head "Silver Will Control" that,
"if the sound money men control
the Convention they are are like
ly to nominate Cleveland, no mat.
ter what kind Of letters the Presi-
dent may write. All this talk,
however, of Cleveland and Car
lise, Russell and Pattison, is bas-
ed on the contingency that the
sound money men will have ma
iority of the Convention. At
present, 1t as tie bitter truth to sag,
THIS looks ertrenaely doubtful"
The New York world of Monday
says: "It is daily becoming more
evident that only the most vigor-
Gus campaign from now on can
prevent the silver men fiom con-
trolling the Democratic conven-
ton at Chicago. Of the eighty
eight delegates already elected all
except five are for free silver.
The first to be chosen were G
from the District of Columbia, OF
whom 4 are fer free silver and 2
doubtful. Missouri's 81. the s from
Colorado. s from Oregon, and the
% from Alabama will be solid for
free silver.

aThe Democracy." says the Chi

aThe Democracy" says the Chi
cago Chronicle, ''will take its
chances in the Presidential cleo
ton of this year sustained by the
consciousness of its own integrity.
1t will oppose Mckinley and Nc
Kinleyism as earnestly and sim
cerely in 1896 as it did in 1890.
The party will pay its way for
legitimate expenses. though it can
fry no fat from tariff benefited
corporations. 1t may be beaten,
but it is not dismayed. In the
comparatively brief history of the
Republic it has seen parties rise
and resign and fall. 1t will abide
when baffled and discredlted op-
position will in desperation seek
to repudiate McKinleyism as an
excrescence. When schemes of
spoliation cf all the people by act
Of Congress for the benefit of some
few of the people shall no longer
be deemed even pseudo statesman
ship the Democratic party will
still have its mission. 1t has al
ways been, it always will be, the
champion and guardian of person
al and religious freedom, the peo-
ple's mighty fortress against the
assaults of Socialism, Anarchism,
and Imperialism" and Republi-
canisn1-the hash Of all other
-"isms." Discouraged Democrats
in this part OF the country and in
this stete should derive fresh in
spiration of faith and courage
from the loyal Western papers
true aud timely rcassertlon of the
party's principles and it's prophet
ic promise of their ultimate victo-
ry over all the evil policies array
ed against them. No Democrat
who is worthy of the name, who
knows what Democracy means,
ever wavers i'll his allegiance to his
party, or in his conviction of the
righteousness of its political creed,
None will waver this year.

Standing to Their Colors.

!'he York County Democratic
executive committee met in the
Court House en- Monday 18th in
stant, pursuant to call recently
sert cut by Chairman S. Brice.
Eleven of the twenty-one precincts
were represented. A considerable
amount of routine business was
disposed of and among other
things the fixing of the time for
electing delegates to the county
convention ard the time for held,
ing the latter. The delegates will
be elected on May 2, and the con-
veation held on Monday, the 4th.
Judging from Chairman Brice's
remarks, after the time for bold
ing the convention had been fixed,
il would appear that he is a Thom-
as jefferson and Andrew Jackson
Democrat, and proposes to remain
true to the party, regardless of its
action either in the State or Ma
tional Convention. He spoke of
the importance of the county con-
vention. It's principal object he
said, will be to elect delegates to
the State Convention. This State
Convention will elect delegates to
the National Convention, and ii
has been suggested that an effort
will be made to instruct those del
egates to bolt the National Con-
vention in the event it fails to
adopt a silver platform and nomi-
nate a free coinage man for Presi-
dent. Speaking for myself" he
said, "I will say that I am a free
siIverite. I believe it is the best
thing for the whole country, and
especially for the South. 1 shall
work for free silver and shall lose
no opportunity to do anything I
can for it; but before anything
else l am Democrat. I have al
ways been a Democrat and expect
to remain one. Gentlemen, I for
one will not bolt. Come what may,
it is my intention to vote for the
nominees of the Democratic party
whoever they may be. This, in
my opinion, is the only way we
can have a Democratic party. If
we vote as Democrats to send dele
gates to the county convention
sends delegates to the State Con-
vention, and the State Convention
send delegates to the National
Convention, it seems to me that
whether we approve Of such ac-
ton as the National Convention
may take or not, we are morally
bound by it all the same. But take
the other side of the proposition.
Suppose we bolt at the National
Convention, have we not the right
TO bolt the action of the State or
county convention Then how can
we call ourselves Democrats?
There will be a new par y organi-
zation to take our place, aud we
will be down and out. No, our
fathers before us were Democrats.
Their principles were right. We
advocate the same principles, and
though the majority of the party
may, for time, go wrong, we are
not justified in boiling. Let us
accept the result, whatever it may
be, stick to the party of our faith
ers, and hope and work for a
change of sentiment that will
bring the party back TO its pro per
principles

Tillman has spoken during the
past week IN Denver, Colorado,
Kansas, and Missouri, and always
to large and demonstrative audi
ences. In all of these speeches he
reiterates again and again that he

like, bclt-the greater fool he
if he should bolt, with victory
for free silver already in the
clutches of the Democratic party.
We do not believe Tillman will

A stomachful of undigested food is
about as unhealthy mass as one can
well imagine.
What can be done with it?
There it stays. 1t won't digest. 1t
churns up, ferments and decays be-
comes poisonous (as all putrid matter
does) and causes great pain and deep
seated disorders.
In order to change all this, take
Shaker Digestive Cordial.
1t stops fermentation and decay at
once, SO that no more poisons are
created.
1t clears the stomach of poisons
already there, 1t helps it to turn the
food that remains, into healthful
nourishment. 1t strengthens the
stomach for the next meal.
Here is the whole philosophy and
cure of indigestion in a few words.
And what's more, its all true. Try it.
Shaker Digestive Cordial is for sale
by druggists, price 10 cents to 500
a bottle.
