TILLMaN DIDN'T SEy ",

It is with pleasure Te Ike that
Senator Tilman denies the language
attributed to him with reference TO
the Prohibitionists, in his Sumter
afternoon speech. He says he did
not say that the Prohibitionists were
"cowards aud hyuocrites," but what
he did say was, that if we lad Pro-
(. hibitjon it would make our people
liars aud hvpocrites " We have as
little faith in the pract;cability of
Prohibition ns has Senator lillman,
but ut the same time, we could not
endorse Il statement which placed
good people in the category OF
towards and hypocrites, and rs the
distinguished statesman has entered
Il disclaimer, we accept his opinion
that ''if we had Prohibition it would
make our people liars ana hypocrites.
Iu this opinion, many people share,
as far as a large number Of people
is concerned. There is Il class OF
individuals who would resort to all
manner of deception to procure
liquor, and some of these are men
VINO stand well in their respective
communities, but shut them off from
liquor, and all of the schemes and
Vaccinations, subterfuges, and lies
possible, would be resorted to for
whiskey; such men would become
Glars and bypocrites and towards. "
There is another class that would
take advantage of "Prohibitlon;"
these are the men who want to en-
gage in the sale of liquor and are
anxious to have Prohibition, hoping
thereby to have a chaotic condition
and non-iuterfereuce in their illicit
avocation; this class vote ior, and
support every Prohibition movement,
much to the disgust of people who
are sincere in advocating Prohibition.
OF course, it is easy to see, where
liquor men support Prohibition, they
are not sincere, it is a case Of by
pocrisy and lying for personal benefit,

YOC CAN'T DO II. YOU KNOW.

The morning dailies of Charleston
and Columbia are wanting to boycott
Senator Tillman, hy not reporting
him in their columns, but the News
and Courier is afraid, and The State
dare not. +or fear the News and
Courier will get q scoop" These
two great dailies nesd not report
Tillman if they do not want to, tbs
country weeklies will take care of
him and keep the people informed Of
bis whereabouts and doings. Senator
1illman does not need any of the
dailies in his business, because he
has as little confidence in them Qs
they seem to have in each other. Sup
pose Ben Iiilman depended upon
the support of the News and Courier
and State when he made his cam
paign for governor, ,he would have been
"a-never -was-it" to this Gay, but as it
is, he did not depend on them, and
pinned his f..;tis to the little country
weeklies, the moullers OF public
sentiment, resulting in placing his
opponents, who depended on the
d;ilies, on the list OF has beeu's."
We will bet two cents against a
ginger cake that neither the News
and Courier or State can refraiu from
mentioning Iillmau one month with
out discovering loss of patronage,
because the people who pay their
money for q newspaper are anxious
to know what Ben Tillmau is doing
whether they are his supporter; or
not, and when they find a newspaper
suppressiug the truth to crafty per-
sonal spleen, some other paper will
be il demand; neither The State
or News and Courier are in business
altogether for love, there must be
little money mixed in with glory to
keep the presses from exploding"
with bankruptcy and starvation. a
better business plan for both of the
metropolitan journals to adopt, would
be to give all of the news whether it
is from Tillman or any one else, ard
eschew putting and crushing policy.

The stock holders in the Palmetto
Soap Factory in Charleston, complain
ofnot receiving patronage. How can
they expect patronage when nobody

Those who met Sir Wilfrid Laurier
in Washington during the sessions Of
the High Joint Commission were
prepared to view his remarks con-
corning arbitration or war as a
slip OF the tongue, but his more re-
cent refusal to attend the Chicago
ceremonies incident to the laying Of
the corner stone of the post Office
building: or to even consider social
invitations from this side of the
border, has caused a revulsion of
feeling against the Capsdian Premier

BUSINESS BEFORE PLEASURE.

The committee 10 investigate the
affairs at the State penitentiary un-
der the administration of Col. ". 4.
Neal have finished their labors and
sent in their report to the governor
for his consideration and action. The
report shows Col. Neal indebted to
the State some Sll 900, which
amount includes notes amounting to
nearly $4,000 owing to the State by
parties who rented convicts from
the institution. Colonel Neal claims
that these notes should not be
charged up to him, aud when de-
Quoted he stands ready to pay every
cent that he owes the State, and has
been ready to do 50 from the mo-
ment a settlement showed his in
lebtedness.
Governor McSweeney was invited
to meet Governor Gambler, Of
Georgia, and about two thous-
and travelling men at the
elsie of Palms" last Saturday and
was to deliver an address of welcome,
but the report of the investigating
committee coming into his hands the
day before, his business rules, "Busi-
ness before pleasure" those which
have promoted him from newspaper
devil" to the chief executive Of a
proud State, made him forego the
pleasure of meet ng IN person,
and extending welcome to
such an influential body of
men as the Travellers Protective
Association. Governor McSweeney
felt it to be his duty to the people to
devote his time and attention to the
report of this committee, and to study
its every detail that he might act in
telligently and with justice to the
State and the party accused.
1t does not take much reflection to
commend the Governor for his course;
were he a scheming politician, having
more regard for capturing votes than
he has for the peoples interests, he
certainly would have met the large
crowd of travelling salesman, and
enjoyed the social feast which awaited
him. The members of the Travellers
Protective Association are fine body
of men to court, because, as rule
they are very popular and make
friends wherever they go; there is
not a city, town, or cross-ro&d, IN the
State that they neglect to VISIT ,and to
have such an aggregation going over
the State talking favorably of a man
who aspires to succeed himself. f.would
be an immense factor towards mould
ing sentiment in his favor. Cover
nor McSweeney has enough public
experience and sagacity to re-
coenize this, but rather than
neglect the peoples interests
for his pleasure, he preferred to
make the sacrifice, one which a schem
ing politician would never do-hence
We desire to call the peoples atten-
ton to Governor AGcSweeney's devo-
ton to duty.

Tillmau's business, because the peo-
pie have great confidence in him and
he is !. good aud faithful work
er in Washington, but if lie
undertakes to cram Latimer, or
ANYBODY else down the throats Of
the people, he will be likely to find
himself overloaded and probably
when too late to unload. AS friend
and supporter of Senator Tillman we
would advise him not to engage IN
any protese business.

Hourly il becomes palmer that the firm
OF Alger & Mckinley will have TO take
Down its sign and go into liquidation. This
necessity might not have arisen il the
partnership recently formed in Michigan.
in the beef and potato line-the eoncera
known as Pingree & Alger limited-had
not come into existence. or had been kept
secret. As matters stand. however. the
relation OF Mr.. Alger to both firms is ere
ating too many difficulties for his Wash
ington associate to be much longer toler-
ated. If Mr.. Mckinley considered himself
in a position to resign and retire to pri-
vate life. an easy way out of a painful di-
lenma would at once be found. But he
! docs not contemplate such a movement as
far as We knew. and hence it is a reasona-
BILE presumption that the other partner
will be forced to do whatever resigning is
demanded by the exigencies OF the occa-
sion.
We are not altogether sure that, from
this viewpoint, Potato Pingree has not ap-
peared upon the scene as Mr.. McKinley's
special providence. Il must be conceded
that. in his physical and moral makeup.
lhSltc NtSS Aot iOOh Aiit part, bul DTONl-
dence is providence no matter how mys-
terous may be its ways, and if it chooses
TO materialize in a loud. coarse voice and

exactly the same. Indeed il is that voice
and those cowhide pedal covers upon which
We are counting TO relieve the man in the

Michanders pachydermatousness. and. a
couple of weeks ago. as We are informed.
a plot was hatched to drive him forth. II
was a simple and. we fancy. would have
been found an effective one.
The plan was to devise some way to de-
lay Alger's arrival at succeeding Cabinet
meeting until all the other members had
assembled. Then, when he should ap-
proach the door, the crowd was TO set up

issary of the conspirators vas to meet !

Baltimore and present him with letter of !

den advent led to the abandonment of this !
scheme, and the intriguers are now wait |

very much of the opinion that it can be |
