Too much policy has ruined many a
politician. Reward your friends for
services rendered; faithfully fulfill
your promises; show no favors to your
.enemies, and make a clean sweep of
the "other fellows" from office. Demo
crats lor office under u Democratic
President. Fire the Republicans out.
Mr. John T. Miller of Abbeville says
that we are going to have heavy frost
in May. The rule is "Fog in March
frost in May," and that we have had
three heavy fogs in March. It is a
sign which he says never fails, and he
predicts that we wont have any fruit
this year. Can't Brother Hemphiil
suppress the evil genius?
Occasionally a rascal is discovered in
the Democratic party, but he is sure of
punishment when found. Recently Al
derman Jachne, of New York, sold his
vote for S20,000 and now he is in limbo.
We are glad he was caught up with,
and we hope he will be severely pun
ished. We are just as much opposed to
Democratic rascals'as any other kind.
We hasten to extend our apologies to
our esteemed cotemporary, the Wnlter
.Jboro Southern Star, for having seem
ingly spoken lightly or unkindly of
two of Colleton Counties' honorable
sons. We had no idea of being unkind,
and what we said about Messrs! Perry
and Howell with other gentlemen, was
said more to condemn the early open
ing of the political campaign than io
object to either of the gentlemen nam
ed as candidates._
Caft. James I. Waddell, com
mander of the Maryland fishery forces,
died Tuesday night at his home in An
napolis of congestion of the brain. He
was a native of North Carolina and
62 years old. Capt. Waddell graduated
, at the naval university in 1849, having
previously served at Vera Cruz against
the Mexicans. He served in the United
States navy until the Confederate war
broke out, when he resigned and enter
ed the Confederate navy, being placed
in command of the famous Shenandoab,
with which he waged war against
vessels in the Arctic seas, destroying
much valuable commerce.
The New York Sun tersely puts it
this way: "In the Senate yesterday,
Joe Brcwn of Geogia made some true
and highly pertinent remarks in re
gard to removals from office. The
President's fault, he said, was that too
few and not too many office-holders
had been put out. All those not in ac
cord with the Administration ought to
be kicked out, and the people would
back up the President in putting in
friends of the Administration and driv
ing out Republicans." If the President
will try Joe Brown's remedy he will
find it will do the Administration, the
Democracy und the country a world of
good. _
The oppointment of John II. Oberly,
of Illinois, to be a civil-service com
missioner is hailed with delight among
Democrats, but the mugwumps will
hold up their hands in holy horror, and
cry out probably, "Good Lord, Mr.
Cleveland, why did you not give us
Gen. Iliggins at once." Mr. Oberly
wits, until he received an appointment
as superintendent of Indian schools,
the chairman of the Democratic State
central committee of Iilinois, and, politi
cally speaking, he is one "of the boys."
He has been connected with various
newspaj>ers in Illinois, und as a politi
cal worker few men out west are his
equal.
Maneuvering.
The movements on the Presidential
field at the present time indicate that the
contest of 1888 will be the severest and
most important since the election of
Sir. Lincoln in I860. Already, when
scarcely more than one year of the pres
ent administration has expired, myste
rious movements are being made and
very significant signs are seen in many
sections of the country-^all pointing
unmistakably to the fact that the bat
tle to.be fought will be n decisive one,
involving perhaps the annihilation of
the defeated party. In New York Mr.
Conkling has been silently working
among his friends with sufficient suc
cess to create quite a star in the stal
wart element of tiie -Republican party,
and combinations are spoken of as
likely to occur, which will doubtless
throw confusion intotbe ranks of other
Presidential aspirants before the nomi
nation is made. Mr. Conkling is wily
and shrewd, just the man to create trou
ble where trouble *vill count most for
his own benefit, arklof this the leaders
in his party have had experience
enough to make themt&'utiousln every
movement. *
At the Capital Senator Edmunds has
made a bold dash in his attack upon
the President to establish himself as
the leafler of his party, and thus to se
cure a position which will make his
nomination reasonably certain in 1888.
The evident indifference, however, on
the part of many Republicans and the
telling blows he has received at the
hands of Democrats seem to have so
clouded his prospect that nothing less
than an overwhelming1 victory can
make him an available candidate before
the convention.
General Sherman, though an aspirant
and a promising one in his own eyes,
is quietly canvassing the chances and
calculating the advantage his famous
"March to the Sea" gives him over his
opponents, but feels considerably em
barrassed in bis work. The burning
of Columbia, his depreciation of Gen.
Grant's military genius and other un
guarded expression are stumbling
stones in his way not easily removed,
and his daily experience with these
matters makes him realize the often
asserted truth that the tongue is in
deed a small member but often gives
a deal of trouble to those who use it
without a bridle.
Nor has Senator Logan been idle or
an indifferent spectator of the scenes
being enacted around him. His friends
with an unswerving devotion to his
cause, have taken in the situation and,
knowing his skill in using to advan
tage the bloody shirt argument, count
on him as an important factor in the
coming contest.
Probably the most active worker and
certainly the most adroit wirer puller
in the field is Mr. Blaine. The growing
popularity of Mr. Conkling In New
York and other states has aroused his
political adherents in that section and
perhaps the old antagonism will be re
vived to lessen, at least, Mr. Conkling
chances for the nomination. The ill
advised attack of Senator Edmunds on
the President opens up an opportunity
for Mr. Blaine to secure an inglorious
defeat to Mr. Edmunds, to bring his
indifferent course in the last campaign
again prominently before the party
and by these means kill him off early in
the campaign. We do not suppose the
friends of the Plumed Knight will give
themselves much trouble about Gener
als Sherman and Logan more than to
give them rope enough to hang them
selves, this their past indiscretion indi
cates as the best policy.
While this maneuvering is being
conducted on the Republican side of
the field, we hope the Democrats are
on the alert and will occupy every van
tage-ground that presents itself. The
success of the party and its perpetua
tion in power depend upon Mr. Cleve
land's administration being a success,
therefore it is of the first importance
for the party leaders to give him their
warmest and best support. Look at it
as we may, Mr. Cleveland's fight is the
party's fight and his success will be the
party's success. Victory in 1888 to
whatever side it turns will give the
successful party an almost indefinite
lease of power.
Interest Dwindling.
When the attack on the President
was first made we expected to have
several weeks of spicy reading embrac
ing rhetorical flourishes, dramatic
episodes, thrilling floor-scenes, flashes of
wit and humor, fine displays of Ameri
can oritory and specimens of genuine
statesmanship that would compare
favorably with the great debates of
Calhcun and Webster. But after two
or three harangues and Senator Hen
na's knock-down speech in defense of
the President, all interest in the affair
seems* to have dwindled and died out.
The truth is, the Republicans have
been badly whipped and we are likely
to hear no more of it save a few ran
dom shots here and there and some
wrangling over the appointments
of t he President.
There is no doubt'as to the rejection
ofnifinyofthe.se appointments, indeed
the President himself knows of several
which ought to be rejected, against
whom some very disgraceful disclosures
have been made. It such charge*
against these nominees could be authen
ticated, it would be well for the Presi
dent, of his. own option, to act and
thereby save bis administration from
scandal and the injury consequent
upon it. Already quite a number of
these very nominations in the Revenue
Department have been confirmed;by
the Senate, and we may expect the
same policy to obtain with regard to
those in other departments of the
government. It seems to us that the
sensible view to take of the whole
question is, that removals were abso
lutely necessary in order that the execu
tion of the laws might be in accord
with the policy of the administration.
A Democratic administration cannot
be successful with the subordinate
officials in the hands of partisan Re
publicans. This M Cleveland knew
and it would have ueen folly for him to
have pursued any other course than
that adopted.
Small Souls.
There are some people whose charity
does not extend beyond their own
homes and who believe nobody is worth
consideration except one of their own
kith and kin. We have met with few
examples of this littleness of soul so
contemptible as the action of the four
Senators who voted against the bill
allowing the widow of Gen. W. S. Han
cock an annual pension of $2,000 in ac
cordance with the established custom
of the government. These same gentle
men were willing to rob the Treasury
of millions of dollars by the general
Pension Bill when it promised to se
cure votes for their party; but to ap
propriate annually a few dollars as a
pension to the widow of an officer who
had done as much or more for the
Union cause than any General in their
army and whose conduct since the war
and previous to his death had given
more dignity and tone to the Federal
government than any man connected
with it, was more than their narrow
minds could conceive or their little
souls allow. No investment pays so
well as money given to reward unusual
talent or unselfish devotion on the part
of a citizen to the cause of his country,
and no investment pays so poorly as
money given by a government as a
bribe to secure the devotion of her citi
.zens to a mere party. Our law-makers
should understand the difference and
shape their legislation accordingly.
Sensible.
Editor Times and Democrat:
Feeling as every farmer must do, an
inclination to respond to the call of his
brother farmer, in the effort to inaugu
rate a movement in behalf of our agri
cultural interest, and therefore to all
others?lor we are the bottom rock in
the structure. I cannot refrain from
expressing my regret, in the condemna*
tory spirit of this appeal. Although
it seems, a tendency of the times, to
impugn and traduce in all differences,
is it wise in a movement like this, to
arraign all our representative, men, Yw
whole sale; must it not weaken our:
cause to antagonize our people, ar
raying one class vs. another, causing
a division in our Democratic ranks,
which must open the door to the enemy
?the negro and the demog'ogue?only
dormant by oucstrenghf, in our solidi
ty. Now, this occasional abuse of our
lawyers in some articles recently in
the press, is indeed in bad taste if not
ungrateful in our farmers, few of
whom in the embarrassment and troub
les of poverty have not laid claim to a
counsellor at the Courthouse who has
oftentimes proven a friend indeed. It
is true that like a great many others,
I did not approve of some of this pro
fession, who led us to victory in '76,
and when we arraigned the official ras
cals, who had robbed us?springing up
in their defence?as was done in more
than one county of our State. But, if
some have fallen before our standard
of excellency, must we condemn all of
the profession in which we find some
of our best men, and who must hesi
tate to join us all with this denuncia
tory feelings for their high calling.
I ellow-fanners, let us pause and go
back to "ante bellum" times in our
County, have we forgotten our Glover, a
lawyer by profession, but how far be
yond this in all his attainments was he
in the relations of friend and coun
sellor. Ay, and our Keitt, who in the
forum as well as field, won distinction,
and in those times that tried men's
souls, where did you find them, but in
the vanguard, where they met so
gallantly their fate. Heroes in the
strife, fully up to the standard of merit
and duty, with our Dantzler and others
of our fraternity, and outside of our
County. Let me recall to you, Butler
and Bonham, Kershaw and Kennedy,
whom some of you have followed upon
many a gory field. Would you traduce
them I God forbid?are they less
worthy now than then?they led us in
times of peril, like Hampton and Ha
good and Bratton.our farmer Generals,
and arc as true to us to-day as they
were in the dangers and trials of the
past, and I for one can do them no dis
honor. In this effort to inaugurate a
movement; which must redowned to
the general good, let us raise such
a standard as that all can dis
cuss the situation, assert our rights,
and demanding them, win them at
the polls. Call your convention, broth
er farmers, but let it be for all of
our people, our interests are one.

Shot by a Burglar.
At Marion on Monday night, the 8th
instant, Duncan M. Dew, a young man
who clerks in the store of B. R. Mul
lins, was shot in the neck by a burglar
and probably fatally wounded. Mr.
Dew and Mr. J. R. Reeves were sleeping
at the store, and between 12 and 1
o'clock that night they heard some one
in the warehouse, twenty feet in the
rear of the store. They were unarmed
I but took a lamp and exploredjthe ware
house. Mr. Dew observed a negro
burglar hiding behind some boxes ami
ordered him to surrender. The clerk
closed in with him and in the scullle
that ensued the negro got his pistol to
the, young man's neck and fired. Mr.
Dew fell, and the negro ran over Mr.'
Reeves, knocking the lamp from his
hand, and made his escape. The negro
was recognized as Henry Williams. He
had bored a hole through the floor and
thus effected an entrance.

A Few. Question!!.
Editor Times and Democrat:
Is there one farmer in ten in South
Carolina who knows that there is such
a thing as the tariff?
Is there one man in ten in the State
who knows the literal and practical
meaning of the word tariff?
Is there one man in ten in the State,
who knows that every time he pur
'chases one dollar's worth of general
merchandise he gets only fifty-seven
cents worth ?
Is there one man in ten in the State,
who knows what becomes of the other
forty-three cents, so expended?
Is there one man in ten in the State,
who knows that all wealth is the pro
duct of labor or the gains of ex
changes?
Is there one man in ten in the State,
who knows that all taxes must arise
from the net product of labor or the
gains of exchanges?
Is there one person in ten in the State,
whether farmer, planter, editor, lawyer,
doctor, preacher, white or colored la
borer, male or female, man, woman or
child, mason, blacksmith, mechanic, or
artisan of anv kind, who knows that
by reason of the tariff, he, she or they
are just forty-three per cent poorer than
they would be if the tariff was not in
existence?
Is there one man in ten in South Caro
lina who knows that the Bessemer Steel
Association alone, as it styles itself,
pays annually over five million of dol
[ lars to Congress to keep up the tariff
in order to enrich itself at the expense
of the many?
Is there one farmer or laborer in ten
thousand in the United States, who if
he understood the enormity and over
whelming injustice of the tariff system
would not use his influence and vote
against any candidate for Congress
who is not committed to vote for a re
duction of the tariff, first, last, and all
the time?
Can "level headed brother Williams
of the Greenville News" define free
trade?
Does "level headed brother Williams
of the Greenville News" know that
when seventy staunch free traders
tackle the average Congressman they
are not tackling a very "big potato?"
Will some person or persons please
answer, and not all answer at once ?

PROF. CHARLES U. SHEPARD, JR.
Soluble Phosphoric Acid.5.88
Reduced Phosporic Acid.3.18
Available Phosphoric Acid.0.06
Insoluble Phosphoric Acid.? .92
Total Phosphoric Acid.9.98
Ammonia (actual and potential).2.54
Potash, Soluble, in Water.2.50
Commercial value 921,90 against guaran
tee of 819.70, or by Professor Shepard's
Analysis?52.20 better than my guarantee.
I can assure my custoniers-amt the "Cres
cent" is the same first-class article it has
ever been since I first introduced it, about
ten years ago. As to chemical excellence I
would refer to Professor Shepard, who
writes me "I have been favorably acquaint
ed with your Fertilizers through a long
series of years," and as to practical results
the verdict of the crop will sustain the
Analysis.
Commercial value by Georgia Standard
is 824.21.
Hundreds of fanners attest the excellence
of the ?'Crescent."
