THE RULE rs WISE.
No Use to Fight Everything In Sight
No Pumping Should be Allowed.
Iditor Press and Banner

Editor Press and Banner:
There is no wiser rule governing the con.
duct OF primary elections In South Carolina
than tie following which was adopted by the
State Democratic Executive Committee
"The respective County Executive Commit
tees are authorized to adopt such rules as
will prevent plumping candidates"
The reason and spirit OF this rule Is self
evident, hence the County Executive Com.
mittee adopted rule in pursuance thereof,
In the following words: "That no ticket cast
fQr members OF the Legislature shall be count
ed unless II has thereon the names OF hVe
caud ldates who have filed the pledge required
by the constitution of the Democratic party
This Is no new rule but has been adopted
by every Executive Committee In Abbeville
County since 1890.
Article VI of the Democratic party, adopted
by the State Convention, provides ''tha. no
vote shall be counted for any candidate who
does not file with the chairman OF the EXecu-
tive Committee pledge In writing that he
will abide by the result of the primary, &C.
The practical necessity for such rules is
plain indeed when you recall the mandate oi
the constitution contained in the article
quoted. If no such had been adopted the
city Of Abbeville, for example, with her long
poll list might have two men in the field
for the House of Representatives. and every
vote cast on the 18th Of August, In that city
might have the names of her fasorites there
on, and filled our with the names OF John X.
Toibert, Lewis Waller and Cy Wimbush. The
latter three names could not be counted &C.
cording 10 the mandate of the constitution,
hence the practical effect would be that Alb.
beville had pumped her two favorites.
So 1t might happen in Green wood or else.
where in the county.
The County Executive Committee, at a
largely attended meeting, adopted this rule
to prevent plumping. They had no other
motive, and IL Is unjust to those gentlemen
who constitute that committee to make In
situations.
Your lrrepressible and puissant Greenwood
correspondent has this TO say, in your last is-
sue, in reference to the adoption Of the rule
"The executive com mttee made very un.
lust rule not TO counta vote for the House un.
less II had thereon five names that had filed
their pledge with the county chairman. Un.
less others come out that will shut OIL num-
Der from voting for the Legislature"
am sure friend IN. S. e." did not mean TO
do injustice to the Executive Committee, but
he does SO, nevertheless.
fear he will never be able to rid himself OF
the habit he has acquired OF fighting every
thing in sight, pugnis Ell calculus.
Think over the matter friend. IN. S. g., VI
and you will conclude that the rule ment tion.
ed Is wise one and In the Interest OF fairness
pence and harmony. ID. II. Magill

the Carolinas and In Georgia, through which
the Seaboard runs. as IT. has in other sections
of the South. The Seaboard, with no friend
ly outlet North, could no longer act as a free
and independent line, and the patrons 1t has
so well served would be compelled to accept
such rates and eXactions rs the Southern
may see fit TO impose. The people apprecl-
ate that such results would prove calami-
ty, and will undoubtedly stand by the Sea.
board and Bay Line In their resistance 10
the possibilities of any such conditions.
Question-But why introduce the passen.
ger feature in the rate war instead OF limit.
Ing it TO freight? Can you give any idea as
to the duration of the trouble?
Mr.. ST. John-The reduction OF passenger
rates Is a necessity of the situation and for
the reason already given. We are making
il possible, the effectiveness of our passenger
service, as well as our freight business. We
have a right TO through transportation to
points south. north, east, and west, and upon
the same terms as are extended to other lines,
and VIC shall expect, II necessary, TO enforce
this right. AS to the duration OF the struggle
which the Southern has forced upon US tafter
every effort TO maintain peace and harmony
an approximate or coDjectural idea. We ex-
pect it will be long one. 1t may last for
months, possibly for years. Great interests
are at stake-great questions are to be de-
time. Without provocation the Southern
has, against the earnest remonstrances OF
President Hoffman, declined TO consider his
protest AS the friend, coadjutor and ally OF
the Bay Line. whose ulterior destruction, II
effected, involves also our own. we have TAX
en- up the guage OF battle and will con tinue II
to the the end. We do not upderrate the
strength of our adversary, but we oppose to
the million OF their bankers the sturdy, un-
waveripg loyalty OF merchants, shippers,
farmers, manufacturers, the producers and
the plain people" of Virginia, the Carolinas,
Georgia, Louisiana, Kentucky, Tennessee,
Alabama, Florida and all territory tributary
to our line, all of whom are as much interest
ed and will be as vitality affected by the out
come Of this struggle as ourselves. The bat
ties we are fighting are theirs as well as our
own, and thrice favored we consider our.
selves to be because "our cause Is just" We
hope to secure the boon Of free scope and ac-
tion in our dealings with public that we are
striving for, and in so doing 10 defeat the
schemes OF Il corporation desirous OF bringing
the entire South under Its exclusive control.
With popular sentiment and sympathy in
our favor we must win. It will be q sad day
for If by any possible chance 1t should ever
find itself at the mercy OF one corporation
and subject to It's undisputed sway. We an
ticipate no such results, for truth Is mighty
and will prevail"
Under no circumstances will we abandon
our ship" and should the result be different
than that anticipated. which seems impossi.
BILE, we will go down with drums beating and
colors flying.
