hopo that our contemporary will study
llio sltuuUon further before taking up
again (Is lank of exasperating Demo
crats against the Democratic provident.
Tlie Constitution, wo think, falls to
tuko nil the facts Into conKlderalioii
when it asserts twice over that tho
president in refusing to sign the Mil ad
ministered "a ship In the face to Uioso
honest, sincere mid patniollo Dcrao-
cruts lu Uio house uud in the sennto
who accepted Uio tariff measure"—that
Is, insulltal these Democmts lu the
grossest, most outrageous way possible
Wlmt JusUIlcuUtMi Is there for such nn
nsscrtlon? Is it not a notorious fact
Unit these sumo Dcmocrala voted for
tho hill with tho very grimiest reluc
tance—under compulsion? Did not Uiey
refuse to vote for it for weeks while
tho struggle lu Uie conference commit
tee WHS going on, only accepting
nt the lust moment, when they were
forced to choose between it’ and tho
McKinley lawV Everybody knows that
this Is true. They did oVerythlng they
could to bring their disapproval of
the measure to the knowledge of
every eltlxeu. These "honest, sincere
nisi patriotic" Democrats wished every
Democrat to know that they were not
responsible for the bill In its tin-Demo-
omto features, ami that if they ac
cepted it, they did so not heenuso of
those features but lu spite of them’.
In view of thrae tact* can anybody
helleve. If tlieso “houi-sl, sincere rind
pnlrioUo” Democrats ooulil have got tlio
good feature* of the bill- on the statute
book without voting for tho had ones,
that they would Imvo tailed to do so?
But their position was different from
that of Uie president. They were ob
liged to vote for the giving of millions
to tho sugar Rust and for duties on
hundreds of arlleles wliioh they knew
to lio euUtvly too high, lu order that
Uie country might Imvo Uic bi'iudlt of
the reduction of taxation wbleb tho
tall ltmiliv To protest against these
bail features of the M1I with the great
est emphasis possible, while voting to
make them law, was the rally possible
way In which they could relievo them
selves of resisnadlilliity fttr them,
■Sir. t'levela.nd, Just as honest, sincere
sail patriotic a Demncral as nay mnn
who votisl for the tall In the house or
seunte, was not la a position where ho
was forced to approve tho bad fenlares
of the law In onler Um« the good might
become law. Itis Higimitire to the hill
Would Imvo Ihhvi nu entirely voluntary
set, and vvlthuut prartiwil effect on the
law Itself. There were noao except
moral and political considerations for
Uie giving, or wlthholdlug of Uiat »g-
unture. There was no qiirattau of In
suiting or In tuty way offending tho
Democrats who reluctantly voted for
the hill at tho clovcuUi hour, as tho
only way of prevcutlug tho lumpleto
talluro of the tariff reform movement.
Already these Democrats, ns well ns
the president, hail "slapped Uie bill In
the face." and tho president In refusing
It his approval only dUI what Uloy
would Imvo dime had they had tho op
portunity. They refused a voluntary
approval of it. mid ho did the Mine
thlug exactly (u tho only way that was
open to him.
We do tutt believe there was any po
litical advantage to be gatacd by the
president voluntarily approving a bill
which lie had donounevd iu tho strong
est posslhlo laiiKtuge. The tall has not
the stamp of approval'of the Detuo-
rratle party, and everybody knows that
It has not. The stamp of the Demo
cratic president, glren after his Utter
of July 2, would hare given the He to
Ills letter, and ndiuvd the latter to the
level of “a taeUeal move," to use the
t’enstltutiioo's own phrase. TV* hsve
the country know that such a letter
wu* not the expression of the vieiis of
an honest, slnocri> ami lulrkMto man,
l>ut of a tricky politician, using his
great office tn a game of putitlc* wouUI
ovrtatuly not h*ve Inspired coulMcaro
la Uie DetnoerMta party or Its ntetbod*
In wlutt we fear Is h desire to injure
the presidtni, at whatever cost to Uio
intrty, we think Ihe Constitution goes
enUrely too tar. It says that the pres
ident In tailing to sign the bill struck
"the party a stunning blow between
the eyes,” nod, further oil, that “It
seems impossible Unit Uie congressional
candidates of the party can make n
successful campalgo by going before
the people and assuming responsibility
for a measure which the party's com-
nmibler-in-ohlef hn» distinctly repu
diated and denounced, and which he
has refused b> touch with his hand.”
This Is the language of despair, and no
Domocmtta paper might to give up Uio
tight nt this stage of the gnine. It is,
beStaes, ibe language of in'.srcpresenm-
tlon, for the president no more repu
diates the measure than does every
other genuine tariff reform Democrat,
Inohidtng the honest, sincere ami pa
triotic onugrcssinen who voteil for It,
under compulsion, In the house and In
Uie senate.
'Tlta Doilfocratle party is under no
obligation to defend wlmt Is bad and
undemocratic in the now law, and Iho
chief efforts of its leaders In congress
and of Uio president have been of late
devoted to the demonstration of flint
fact. The congressional candidates of
the parly will be.very foolish If they
voluntarily assume such an obligation.
AttaaOi, Aug. a.—(Special.)—Cusn-
prtusmrn representing the primfe
oompreuia .ot most of uie Southern
SiOlJej east of tus dllssistslppi river met
WHAT IT MEANS.
Tho chief significance nt tho presi
dent’s tailuru to sign Uio tariff bill is
that lio refuses to accept that measure
us u Dual settlement of the tariff con
troversy. He Is glad to get It, on the
principle Unit a half loaf Is better than
no bread, but ho is determined to Imve
tho whole loaf nt tho earliest possible
moment It Is because his action has
tills Nlgutacnoce, even lmd he not writ
ten Ills letter to Mr. (latchings, that it
meets the disapproval of many people,
ubove nil tilings, for industrial peace.
The uttlludo of the president in Uils
matter is exactly the same ns that as
sumed by Uie house. When Uio
called “pop-gun" tails were rushed
through that body without debate with
in au hour or two after the senate tall
had tarn accepted, that was noUce Hint
Uio house did not consider the tariff
question settled—that R took wlmt It
could gel of tariff reduction and would
Immediately go to work to get more,
lu u broad senso Uie president and
Uio house ere right. Tho tariff qaes-
Uon is not settled uud never will be as
long ns there Is a discriminating—Uiut
Is to say, a protective-tax in It. But
wo think (lie agitation of the question
is over for a time. No doubt, us op
portunity offers, purtleularly oppressive
fentiircN of the existing law will lie
changed, but we tlo not expect any gen
eral scheme of tariff revision, such ns
would widely affect the Industries of
tho ootmlry, to lie undertaken for sev
eral years. Ollier questions nro press
ing to tho front for settlement, and
the business men of tho country will
protest effectively against a further ex
tension of Uio period of uurest, conse
quent upon attempted tariff revision,
djirtag which commerce uud Industry
must suffer. . .
OVER IN CAROLINA.
Tho sudden withdrawal by Nenator
Butler of Ills pledge to abide the result
of tho socnlled Democratic primaries
In Uoutli Carolina menus that the
troubled politic* of that statu are en
tering a new phase. In the primaries
Butler hud uo chance whatever of elec
tion,, ns ho wus refused a direct voto of
tlio people for scan tor.
The conservative Democrats of South
Carolina, tut the opponents of Governor
Tillman are called, are practically dis
franchised. They hare uo voice In the
iiumngeuicnt of tho party and ure
treated n» cnciiries by thoeo who tire
lu control. The whole light of tho TUI-
■uunlto press and orators Is against
them aud not egnkust the Keptthlicans
or Populists. On tho contrary, the lat
ter, ut least, arc exempt from attack
hy these so-called Democrats. Gov
ernor Tillman, whose slightest whim
Is obeytsl hy the party he Ims created
with slavish docility, 1ms clUelly dis
tinguished himself of late by his coarse
abuse of President Cleveland aud tho
Democratic parly, and makes no nob-
ecalmcnt of tnc met Unit he Is only
lilting for u signal from the West to
break tlio nominal connect ion between
Ids followers and the Democratic party,
lie docs not conceal Ids hostility to the
Democratic party nor Ids Intention to
use the machinery of the party which
ho has soiled In Hla effort to destroy it.
Uudor such circumstance* it seems
plain to us dint the real Democrats of
nth Carolina ought to reorganize
their party, Ccrtnluly party officials
calling themselves Democrats, hut l\ho
nro avowed enemies of the Democratic
party, have no claim on their altcgt-
auce. no rightful authority over them.

the speaker, and continuing he nM:
“Dlbb will roll up 3.500 majority. 6he
did It two years ago and she’ll do it
again.
“What says old Butts? God bless her,
the home of my ancestors. She’s as
true to Democracy as the needle to the
pole.
“They may talk and boast about Pay
ette as much as they pleise, but the
Papuflst-Republlcan combination can
never tear her away from her alle
giance to Democracy.
“Wha’t says Henry” The Henry coun
ty delegation answered that with a yell
that knocked the ten rtns down In the
bowling alley nett to the spring. Con•
tinuHng Judge Bartlett said; “When
Henry gpeaks the battle is settled.
When Brushy Knob. Shake Rag and
Love are heard from the PopuKst* take
to the woods. And the other districts
stand nobfty behind these three.
“What says gallant old Monroe7 This

“Need I ask what old Spalding will

November It will take a 1,000-candle
power electric search light to find one.
(A voice; “That's right.”)
“What says Upson? Aok Jake King
and he* 1 !! tell ybu. He Is one of the
best men in the world, but there axe
500 Jake Kings In Upson when It comes
to working for Democracy.
“If we are true to ourselves all the
combined opposttlbn wifi be of no avail
against us.”
Judge Bartlett started in to tell of
the greait work which had beep done by
the Democratic party 4n Washington,
when h!s attention was called lb the
fact that In calling <the toll of the coun
ties he had omitted Pike.
*'I beg Pike's pardon,” ho said.
“Pike’s aill right,” shouted a delegate
from that county.
“Bill Howard nnd those other boy
know If I left Pike out unintentional
ly,” said the speaker. “Why, <P»ke Is
the bed-rock on which the Bartlett col
umn was built. I can pledge for Pike
that she will give AJtkinson, Redding,
Harris and Bartlett at learit 1,000 ma
jority.”
The Judgf then resumed hls'enumera
Won of the good work which has been
done hy congress and the Democratic
administration. “Abuses,” he said,
“which have grown hoary-with age can
not be corrected at once.”
In conclusion he said: “The banner
which has been presented to me I will
take In my hands, carry It Inside the
breastworks and thsre plant it."
Judge Bantlett wa« heartily congratu

By this time the platform committee
