at Pamela last Friday. The boys
went in the morning and took their
dinner picnic fashion, which was en-
joyed by the boys on both sides, l
think, Judging from the dinners
they ate.) This was done in order to
begin the game early and finish so
our boys would not be so late in get
ting home, but Pamela insisted on
waiting till o'clock, so at the sew
enth inning the game was called.
The score stood 8 to 13 in favor of
Paxville, and every indication was
that Paxville would have beaten had
the other two innings been played.
We will play them yet, though, if
Pamela insists.

On last Wednesday evening the
Pinewood Dramatic Club rendered
for the first, time in this town the
farce comedy Hans Won Smash"
from the pen of 7. S. Denison. Songs,
music and tableaux made up the rest
of the program. The audience was
not as large as we expected, but a
good many were kept away on &C
count of sickness; still we played to
standing room, for one person gave
two dollars to rubber neck" the
show through a window. We are
going to play at Elloree and Orange
burg as soon as we can get a date.
We will have to play these towns to
get back our money, for a good many
in the troupe went to a good deal of
expense 10 make the entertainment
success, expecting the support of the
people as it was given for the benefit
of the churches of the town. Nap

window and came near killing dar-

show.

the show and TO the enjoyment Of

enator McLaurin is the dead duck''

Senator McLaurin is the dead duck"
the politicians are painting him, and
their actions surely belle their words.
If McLaurin has no following why
do they make snch strenuous efforts
to keep the people from hearing him?
I have never declared myself for or
against McLaurin, but am teetotally
opposed to anything like close cor
poration in politics. l want the pri-
lnaries kept as you have been urging
all along-for every white man to en-
ter and let the people decide whether
or not they approve of his views.
I was talking with a number Of
friends last Saturday and one of
them remarked that McLaurin had
strong friend in you, and my reply
was, did you ever know Appelt to
profess friendship for a man, that he
ever proved untrue to him?" The
party agreed with me that if you be-
lieve you are right, you stand by
what you think and have always had
the manhood to express yourself
whether your views meet with ap
proval or not. In this Senatorial
fight we all know you are Senator
McLaurin's personal friend and we
admire your constancy. l can say
with all candor that you have been a
jealous friend to the people and that
you have always looked out for their
interests, and l was glad to see your
declaration to urge your views until
the convention adopted platform
and then you would stand by what
eyer action the convention took.
That declaration mas the ring of a
true Democrat who fights for his opin-
ions but submits Loyalty to the ma
jority OF his party.
VIII; is it that the merchants can
have their leagues and the farmers
cannot? l am much of the opinion
that non-political farmers league
is a necessity, that we must band
ourselves together to resist the en-
croachments of corporations which
are being organized every day.
I see that Senator Tillman is now a
director in a large corporation, and
after his deuunciation of such things
it strikes me we have reached the
stage where we might ask ourselves
who can we trust.
l am reading T. L. Gantt's ZAP,
peal to Reason" published in The
TIMES with a great deal OF pleasure
and profit, and l hope he will keep
on with his good work of education.

TILLMAN AND M'LAURIN.
A Democrats Opinion on the Action of the
State Executive Committee.

State Executive Committee.
In discussing the recent action of our
State Democratic committee, we should
not consider what effect any such ruling
may have On Senator McL.aurin or any
other individual candidate, but we must
consider, is not such conduct trampling
under foot the fundamental principles
of DemocrAcy-the right of the people
to decide who should ri e over them?
and is not such arbitrary ruling not
only intruding upon the domain OF the
sovereign voters, but is calculated to
create division, or at least give grave
and serious cause for division in the
ranks OF our party?
Whether voter endorse Senator Nc
Laurin or not, the question is, have
twenty-one men (called together for an
entirely different purpose) the right to
demand the resignation of an officer
elected by the people? and then try to
keep said officer from being heard in
his own defense, and then let the voters
of South Carolina decide whether or not
he is wrong.
In Justice to the members of the State
Executive committee, do not believe
that they would have considered any
such resolutions as those passed, but
that they were driven to do so under
the lash of our senior Senator. | have
no protest to make agains; Senator Till
mans official record so far IS know:
but the independent voters OF South
Carolina will not longer tamely submit
to one mans dictation, for they are get
ting very tired OF his rule. The many
friends, throughout our State, of the
late lamented Senator Irby, have not

thrown care to the winds and he is

The State Democratic Committee
has certainly gone and done 1t:
That body composed of handful
of politicians sent forth to the world
a declaration which is nothing more
than wilful presumption: What right
did the executive committee have in
declaring against Senator McLaurin
or any body else? The executive
committee is presumed to be a non
partisan body to direct the policy Of
the party primary under the con-
stitution adopted in party conven-
tion. I have carefully gone over the
Constitution and there is no author
ity whatever in it giving the execu-
tive committee the power to even
suggest that this or that man shall
not run in the primary, but I do see
where the Constitution makes it
clear that any white man who will
take the pledge to abide the result
and support the nominees can run.
