ENGLAND'S PERIL.
The Question of the Intentions of
the Ameer OF Afghanistan Comes
lin An0fu
Up Again.

Up Again.
New York Sun.
That the British government has for
sometime had cause for anxiety re-
garding the Indian frontier and Indian
affairs generally, there is no manner Of
doubt. For nearly a year past the at
titude of the Ameer of Afghanistan has
been decidedly dubious. and on several
occasions The Sun has published news
describing the preparations Of one
kind and another which he was max
ing against eventualities. The prohibi-
ton Of the export Of horses to British
India and of the importation Of salt
from them, was one instance of grow
ing unfriendliness to the British which
was mentioned. Also the forming of
supply depots on large scale in towns
on the main roads in the eastern and
central parts of his territory, and mo-
bilization of a portion Of his army.
Large purchases of arms and ammuni-
ton were also made in addition to
what was turned out of the factory at
Kabul, and a camp of observation has
been established at point on the Brit
ish Indian frontier, while the more i'm
portant frontier posts IN other direc-
tions have been REINFORCED. Whether
all this has been done with a view to
offence or defence must be left to time
to tell. The most pressing question is
as to the relations between Russia and
Afghanistan, and there we are some
what in the dark.
1t was reported some few months
back that a Russian mission was ex-
pected at Kabul; but this was contra
dicted later. About the same time,
however, the Ameer suddenly left ka-
bul for the month and returned after a
short absence without the reason for
his journey being given. The belief
was that it had a political object, and
that there was a meeting between the
Ameer and some foreign envoy. Thus,
whate er the cause, the Ameer has
clearly been taking stock in the situa-

TILLMAN AS A DEMOCRAT.
From His Campaign
Speeches of Other Years.

Quotations From His Campaign
Speeches of Other Years.
To the Editor of The State:
In the course Of his comments on
Senator McLaurin's letter replying to
the resolutions of the State Democratic
executive committee, Senator Tillman
quoted Lord Bacon as saying: Liars
ought to have good memories" He also
said in his Chester speech: IF there
has been one man who has been loyal
to the organized Democracy, 1t was
himself, and any man who says he has
been disloyal lies, and knows It,"
Let Mr.. Tillman's record sp@ck for
itself. At the Marlboro meeting in '94
he said: 1--WE stood by the Democratic
party when you and I and even half
the white people Of the state had a
third party nerve up our backs as big
as a mans finger" At the Horny
meeting in '94 the governor said to get
more money he was willing to join the
west in anything" At the Anderson
meeting in '94, the governor asserted
that II Tom Watson and other south
ern leaders will fight right and use
Judgment the whole south will be ready
to 20 to the west in a body in short
time" At the Pickens meeting in '94,
he answered questions about leaving
the Democratic party by saying he was
ready to leave as soon as he saw light
in the west" Unfortunately for the
Democratic party the light failed.)
At the Greenville meeting in '94, Gov
ernor Tillman took a hand primary on
the following questions: "All you who
are willing to follow me into coalition
with the west and to fight for more
money, no matter what the name of
the party, hold up your hands" These
quotations are taken from Governor
Tillman's public addresses as published
by his own organ.
In a letter to Thomas F. Byron dated
January s, 1895, Senator Tillman said:
II see no hope Of relief or of saving
our institutions unless the farmers of
the south quit voting the Democratic
ticket and the farmers Of the west quit
voting the Republican ticket.
A new party seems necessary"
At Wichita, Kansas, (see Topeka
State Journal, April, II. 1886 Senator
Tilman said: "And you Democrats
who say you have always voted with
the party and will continue to vote it.
God have mercy on your imbecility.
If we cannot be Democrats
straight let us be Lincoln Republicans.
I pledge myself straight to either
ticket"
In the last State Democratic conven-
ton, addressing that body. Senator
Tillman said: when any stealing g
going on, want my part Of the beer.'
Respectfully submitted to the public
and especially to the present State
Democratic executive committee.

OUTSIDE THE PRISON GATE.
Kind Words That Changed the Life
of a Discharged Convict.

Kind Word. That Changed the Life
of a Discharged Convict.
The following is the substance Of q
true story recently told by gentleman
who had been one Of the prison COM
missioners of the state Of Connecticut:
Some 80 years ago, when was pass
ing the state prison at Wethersf1eld,
noticed the gate open and man come
out. The tears streamed from his eyes
as he stood perplexed.
"'Where now, my friend?' I asked
cheerfully.
"I don't know, sir. I don't suppose
anyone wants me anywhere
"T am walking to Hartford. Come
with me-
1T was a warm day in early May.
The poor convict opened his heart to
me and told me what brought him to
the penitentiary. 1t soon came out that
the convict had made shoes in prison.
"I think know a man. said I, who
will hire you in his factory, and If I
were in your place I would not lisp
word about having been in prison.
"'You have been kind said the re-
leased prisoner turning away with
quivering lips. I must say goodby. I
cannot longer live and lie. I promised
God last night in my cell that when I
came out l would be an uprigh. man
and take the consequences, and I will
keep my word
Forgive me for tempting you at the
outset 1 said. Come on
II saw my friend, the manufacturer,
and told him the whole story. He had
a little talk with my man and made
bargain with him. That night just as
the shop was about to close we three
went into the workroom.
Here is q poor fellow who was dis
charged from state prison this morn
ing,' said the proprietor. I am going
to give him a start in life by taking
him into the shop. He begins work
tomorrow
There were indignant glances among
the men, and one spoke up hastily:
~ shall leave if he stays. I will not
work with any jailbird.'
Very well, said the employer. Any
one who wishes to leave will have a
bill of his time in the morning.
only the one man who had objected
left.
Ten years later the 'jailbird' was the
owner OF that manufactory, and the
man who would not work with him
was one of his journeymen.
That ex-convict is now state SEN
ator in one Of the New England legis-
latures. He said to me today:

result might have been had an evil man
