STAND TO YOUR CoLORs.

Every voter in the State who has
taken the trouble to watch the poll
tical chess board, cannot help but see
the danger which confronts the Re-
form movement. Look at it as you
will and it becomes more evident that
the Conservatives are not as indifer-
ent towards Judge Earle!as some pre-
tend to be. In Sumter lasi week we
were told that since Judge Earle
struck Governor Evansit washed him
Of his sins against the Conservatives
and they will support him, hoping it
will break the back of Tillman and
the Reform cause.
We expressed the opinion some
time ago that eight out of ten Con-
servetives would vote for Earle in
spite of their pretended Indifference
and in visiting various towns We find
no reason to change our views The
Conservatives do not like Earle, but
they think it good politics to vote for
him, hoping that sufficient number
of Reformers will join them to defeat
Tillman's trusted lieutenant. If Till
man was not supposed to be in favor
Of John Gary Evans, the Conservs-
tives would prefer him to Earle, be-
cause they can not help but admire
good sticker even if they have to go
to their opponents to find him; they
detest q man who will make 8 fight
and when hcked,turn around to make
fair weather with his conquerors for
the sake OF position. In 1890 Judge
Earle went to every stump declaring
the Shell manifesto to be lie from
beginning to endland now when he is
twitted with bis own utterances he
modifes and says the manifesto was
false as far as official corruption IN
lis Office was concerned. If the mani
.esto issued forth by the leaders OF
the Reform movement was a lie, then
it must be a lie to-day; the fact that
Judge Earle wants another Office has
not changed one word or declaration
in that historic instrument.
As thetime draws near to the primary
some eoftheConservatives become more
bol6; at first they declared they would
not vote for Earle under any circum-
stsnces,now they are beginning to say
that Earle is the ablest man and for
that reason they will cast their votes
for him, and some of the more e1-
treme kind will come out and say
that they will vote for him because
he struck Evans.

Duncan thought he made ten
strike when he charged Evans with
voting for Judge Wallace. But Evans
was not ashamed OF the part he
played in that election, and very
promptly replied that he would vote
for Judge Wallace again. When
Evans voted to place Judge Wallace
upon the supreme bench he voted
for patriot, soldier and gentleman
and we think his defeat was one OF
the mistakes of the Reform cause.

Does Duncan tote a razor? What
made him put his hand on his hip
pocket when be turned Oh Governor
Evans at Union last Monday. We are
glad the governor paid no attention
to him. Duncan at last, has bad it
to dawn upon him, that the people
are on to his and Whitman's racket.
It would be well for both Duncan and
Whitman, when the campaign is over
to swear of from politics and GO to
fddling on cord wood with an able
bodied buck saw, the occupation
would suit their dispositions and the
exercise will prove very beneficial to
such dyspeptics.

It is the duty of an editor to point
out matters concerning the people
and for him to make such suggestions
as in his judgement is best for the
public good. When he does this. it
is for the people to consider the views
of the editor and if they think he is
right to stand by him; but if they
think him wrong, 40 matter how
popular he may be personally, it is
their duty to disagree with him, and
no sensible editor will blame them.

State Constable Newbold has hao
enough to exasperate him, but the
telegram he sent to Duncan, warning
him not to use lis name on the stump
was bad break. It gave Duncan
capital and an opportunity to cry
persecution and to play the lole OF a
fellow who don't scare. It would
have been better had Newbold warn
ed Duncan privately and if he per-
sisted in using bis name, he could
then have held him to account prl-
vately without giving him chance
to make political capital.

Corporation Counsel Thompson for

Corporation Counsel Thompson for
the city of Florence furnished to the
city council of that city very elabor-
ate opinion as to whether Governor
Evans was subject to arrest. He de-
cides that Governor Evans when IN
Florence was private individual
and not governor, and therefore sub
iect to arrest the same as any other
person. We will not presume 10 say
whether Lawyer Thompson is right
or wrong, but we will say that read
ing of the paper purporting to be a
legal opinion will show more venom
70 the line than any attack heretofore
made by the governors bitterest en-
emies, and consequently, it will have
about as much weight with the pub
lie, as did Haskeils confession about
advising his clients to bribe leg'sla-
ton. 4 legal opinion and an attack
filed Will, vituperation and abuse a>e
bv no means the same, and should be
as far apart as the poles. II Lawyer
Thompson wanted TO make 4 political
Larangue against the governor, he
should select some other way thar
through a legal opinion. He should
have rented a hall with a hind tiger
attachment. His conduct has the ap-
pearence Of bushw; cking.

The News and Courier is a strong
gold standard newspaper and it re-
fuses to advise the people to vote for
Bryan and Sewall, yet it advocates
the election CT Judge Earle. Why is
this? Remember it has been asserted
that the gold men would use efforts
to defeat John Gary Evans, because
they think Tillman wants him as his
lieutenant in the Senate. They know
that Evans was the trusted aid OF
Tillman in all important measures
affecting the Reform cause-hence
their hate.

THE ADVANTAGES OF A
HOME MARKET.
If our farmer friends will
think for a moment they can
soon see the advantage Of hay-
ing a market near them. In
the first place they can save
considerable in a season in
time alone, and as "time is
money" time saved is money
made. In the second place, a
market near home is conven-
lent because farmers can easi-
ly receive information as to
prices: best time for selling,
&c.
Then, another advantage is
knowing the men with whom
you deal. Farmers know
better the men with whom
they have been dealing, and
if their business have been Of
lono standing, there is a mu-
tual confidence existing which
makes it more pleasant for
home folks to deal with each
other. In fact, there are many
reasons why farmers should
assist in building a home mar
ket. Manning will try hard
to build up a first class tobac-
co market. Let the farmers
cooperate with the men who
expect to work for their in
terest.
