How Co.'s it stand in South Csr ,iins

She has passed through the period Of

CONSTITUTIONS Convention in 1895 and
solved the suffrage question and eiimi-
mated the friction OF race By putting
the negro whore he bslongs in politics;
and further they lsii the foundation
for broad education in the masses as
well as the higher schools to enable
future generations to keep doan that
race friction by bsing q qlal,isd for the
educational suffrage.
From Washington We hear forebod-
ings aid warning that the South's bssis
of Representation must be cut down,
bsoause of our action.
Tnese threats are made as to every
Southern State Who has acted like ne
hsVe or are nov doing so, like Alabama
and Virginia.
The question of the validity Of our
Laws a1s held up for consideration in
1he questions made on the elec ion Of
or 4 Representatives.
Aud on the heels Of all this We are
told that in this stste especially He
ought to have tHo white parsie8.
That more freedom Of speech must be
INDUCED.
Let it come, but let it come in the
Right way; under right colors. As
Republican and Democrat.
And when it comes, remember it
means fight over the negro.
When tue whites divide AMI one
party is backed by the p.tro aage of the
Powers at Washington, it msaas new
regintration will be demansed; snd the
entire RECOMMENDATION OF the old q1es-

Are you ready for 1T? Ii go. pitch In,
As far as an concerned, the same
old party which I fought with in the
Tax Paser's Convention from 1870 to
1876, TO preserve white snpts n aus; the
same old party which with shs R.!
Shirt brigade in 1875 hueg Of the alien
yoke; this same old party weica ever
since has fought for thas end, and IN
1895 sfser three long months Of work
ia Columbia framed 8 Constitution
Which.mesithe approval Of the white pso-
pie Of the entire S ate, is good enough
for me.
No entering wedge for a division
should be allowed in the name Of any
new tangled Democracy, whether it be
called PROGRESSIVE or COM
MERClAL.
These divisions, these dangers, these
contentious in the past have cost Us
too much.
The grand old State, battle SCARED,
earth quake rocked aud adversity tried
as she hss been, needs now more than
ever the loyal support of her sons.
La my humble judgment the white
people Of Soush Carg!lna st this juno,
ture are, and ought to be lessiaterestcd
in what ils 1es shall be made pAram ouns
in the Democratic n stionsl platform in
1904; or who shsil be OUT standard
bearer then, than 10 maintaining the
puuty and autonomy of our party here
in che State. National issues oanno:
be invented they are born By the Way
from the paramount ideas Of the peo
pls, and practical sense must be used
at the right time to take advantage OF
them.
National candidates had best nos be
thre5hed ous too fsr ahead of tins less:
they may Tot suis the idssa, but 1t is
imperative, it Is important, it is parA
mosnt that We should ksep the atmos
pae.e around our own political hearth
stoae pure aud at least Democratic.
Let as see to it that no insidious Rs-
publican poison is injected in'o she
body polite in the name Of Democracy.
We want no scatter shots in that
fight; 70 ne me.eor-like f flashlights to lsad
Us into the spsce Of politicsl oblivion,
but the old time principles with true
soo1 behind them, aa3 then the Tacs
and ile ss the REAL progressive D-mcc
racy will march forward, along with the
other Democratic States tf the Union
to Nstional victory in 1904
The grand old Snip OF State ia not
VIZ scked; she only. rocks and rolls IN the
trough Of a dangerous sea, waiting for
her true sons to steer her safely through.
"Pear not each sudden soInd or shock,
'rir of the wave and not the rock
Tie but the fspping Of the sail,
And not q rent msde by the gale.
In spite of rock aud tempests roar,
Ia spite Of false lights on the shore,
Sail on old Ship, nor fear to breast the ses,
Our hearts, our hopes sre ell with thee,
Our hearts, our hopes, our tears, our prayers,
Our Faith triumphant DER our fears,
Are all with thee, are all with thee"
Carolina, forever, Gods blessings attend
| her"
