REPUBLIC SPECIAL
"Washington, Slay JK. South Carolina
seems determined to preserve her reputa
tion for being a hotbed of political sen
sations. The present feud between Senators Till
man and: McLaurin, is of recent growth,
for only a few- years ago young "Johnny"
SIcLnurin,was an ambitious pupil of Sena
tor Tillman, both In local and national poli
tics. When Tlllmanism asserted Itself in
the Palmetto State a rew years ago and
Bent to the rear General Wade Hampton,
General St. C. Butler and other distin
guished old-time Democrats, John L. Slt
Laurln. came to the front as one of -Tillman's
faithful-followers and lieutenants.
Was Tillman's Protege.
When Tillman was, elected Governor of
the State McLaarln was his Attorney Gen
eral. Both men were ambitious t"o figure
In national politics, so Tillman came to
the Senate and McLaurin went to the
.House of Representatives and aspired to a
seat In the Senate. Fortune favored him
mi h reached the Senate, somewhat In
advance-of .hie anticipation. Senator. Earle,
who was elected as Tillman's colleague,
died soon after heientered the Senate. Gov
ernor Elcrbeu who was a personal. friend
of McLaurin, promptly appointed him to till
the vacancy . until the Legislature might
elecC Earle's successor.
Up to that time there had been no open
rupture between Tillman and SIcLaurin, so
the Legislature elected McLaurin to fill the
term or Earle. .which does not -expire until
1903. Harmony between the two leaders
did 'not "last longi-alter McLaurin s-advent
in the Senate, and they were soon wide
aparton c,vry question. . . ,
Partlnx ,of Political Wy.
As the time approached for McLaurin to
muster his Jorcealfor re-election, Tillman
and his friends sent forth an edict that SIc
LAurin must be defeated, charging mm with
deserting the Democratic party.
White the- Tillmanltes were, denouncing
him as a renegade and accusing him ot
disloyalty to the party organization, before
he refused to accept Bryanlsm as the only
test of Democracy, the Junior Senator was
busy if owning an alliance-with the commer
cial interests of South Carolina. Being per
sonally Interested, in various industries in
theSouth. he naturally-inclined to the poli
cy ot high (protection. This .In itself, was, a
direct affront to the teaohlngs ot Tillman
and a repudiation of Bryan. ,

Twopen breach between Tillman and Mc-
Iaunn loccurred. about the time the South
Carolina delegates for the Kansas Cltyt con-
ventlon were being selected. McLaurin was
totally ignored, while Tillman headed a
AHeltgatlon of hls own choosing. McLaurin
regarded the overwhelming defeat or Bry
anlsm as a vlndicaUon or his independent
course and his action In the Senate .last
winter in voting ,wlth the Republicans on
all tho leading national issues aroused the
indignation ot the Tillman faction at home
to the-highest pitch. , He has been de

of Industrial enthusiasm, and people arc
now talking about the development of Tex

the oil business would-be the least part of
the widespread development that is to com

It is still felt that the oil Industry Itself
Is only begun.

FEELING iN SOUTH CAROLINA.
Senator Mcl.a.irin Thought to have
an Up-Hill Fight.
REPUBLIC SPECIAL
Charleston, S. C, May 2 -The action ot
United States Senators B. It. Tillman arid
J. L McLaurin in resigning their seats in
order to submit the political differences be
tween them to.the people of South. Carolina,
has raised a, perfect furore throughout the
State, and the campaign which will,. result
promises to be the most exciting and sen
sational that has ever been known" here.
There is little question that ' Tillman
forced SlcLaurln Into resigning. He knew
the Junior Senator was inaugurating a
movement jwntcn contemplated wresting
from him (Tillman) the present control or
South Carolina, and he preferred to tight
now rather than a year- hence, when Slc
Laurln would have, had time to build up a
followinj fort himself with the. Federal
patronage, which Is unquestionably at his
u.ovucak , 1 .
Before the farmers .of South Carolina.
Tillman Is considered irresistible. He has
never lost the hold hn hn,t n hom ...
they used to carry him .about the streets
of county towns on their shoulders in his
campaigns, of 1S90 and 1892. and TO per cent
v. t..u LTciuvi. bug vuiers are farmers, m
" ciuc,.aicuaurmknas strong, following.
He will also get support trom the old con
servative taction. , i ,
It is possible that SlcLaurln .will apply to
succeed Tillman,, but, K he does not. It Is
questionable whether any one else will
whjle on thcother hand, the candidates
against McLaurin htinself will be many.
Congressman .A. GvLatlmer will be, one of
them; Governor SIcSweency may, possibly
be. another;. D. S. -Henderson, a leading
Aiken .lawyer, has-lone.had.jin.eye on the
place. It Is not Improbable that ex-Goyerridr
j..i. jaty cvkhii' win maKe-canotner at
tempt to win the .toga. Former Congress
man George, Jqhnctone,. whom -Latimer suc
ceeded, may also be- In it. and there are
others who are talked of.
AH. together i McLaurin has let himself !n
for a very uphllLflght, Tillman Is greatlv
embittered against him. and on. the-stump
Tillman Is the most formidable opponent
that any candidate In 8outh Carolina could

It McLaurin is a Democrat I am inot. 1
want the people to decide between us."
. In reply to a request for a statement trom
him as to the double senatorial resignation,
Mr., McLaurin said: . t
'Tillman made a. bluff to-day and I called
him. I put him In a position where he
either had to resign and go Into a senatorial
race with me or confess he was bluffing,
and was afraid to risk his political scalp,
though 'willing to knife me in a campaign
In which' he was not -a candidate and had
nothing at stake. All I desire is a free, fair
and open fight with Tillman on the Issues
upon which we'dltler. I earnestly hope that
all others will keep outiof our race nnd run
for the-othex scnatorshlp so that Tillman
andiJ may meet -as man to man and fight

doze me Unto a joint debate with; him If I
was afraid to meet him. I have shown him
I was, not. afraid jto meet, him: and-I-hope
he will notishow himself afraid to meet me
In the ,enatorial race. I hope he will not

PARISHIONERS ARE DISTURBED
Many young unmtrrlcd women, who arc
members of Trinity Episcopal Church, and
who a re engaged in business of various kinds,
are greatly stirred up on account of senti
ments expressed by the Itevc-rcnd William
IlanlHiis. rector or that church, in a ser
mon which tit recently preached on the
sphere ot women
Jn his sermon he cautioned young women
against selecting business occupatlona in
which they would be obliged to dally asso
ciate with men. By so doing, he said, they
are more than likely to lose the serene at
mosphere or the home, which. In the eyes
of marrying men. Is women's thief charm.
Continual asoclation with rough business
men, he iald almost invariably tends to erase
the tender bloom of womanhood from a
girl, and makes her look upon the world
In too hard a light.

men. Tluy say that their chances for mar
rying are In no wise lessened by the, fact
that they are earning money In business.
The Reverend Mr. Bardens says that his
sermon did not develop any new Ideas, and
that be was surprl"ed that It had caused
comment.
"I am decidedly in tavor or women having
occupation," he said In jdlscusslng his ser

charitable work connected with It furni"h

advising young women not; to choose busl
nes occupations. I had reference to those
whom necessity does net tompel to work In
order to gc-t a living.
"I, know of many cases and there are
thousands of cases in which I am not cogni
zant In which girls und young women leave
their homes to work where there Is abso
lutely no need of It, and. In many cases. In
opposition to the wishes of their families.

The, Reverend Mr.,Zahn appeared to ba In

pay Ing a glowing tribute to the scheipls ot
this country, parochial andpublic. Without
the public school there .vfriiild be no public,
he said, and the Lutherans gladly, do their
share In supporting- them. No good Luther
an., ho contlued. could be an enemy to the
public school. But after all, and while the
public school formed a part of the founda

alone sufficient to make good cltutens.
"Christianity must be taken Into consid

fourth R that must be guarded against. It
stands for rascality rascality." .

THE.REVEREND DOCTOR BARDENS.
Rector of Trinity Episcopal Church.
Those women fll. positions which thev
should leave for others who actually have to
work to earn a living. n
"The prevalence of working women in
these times is. In my opinion, the cause, of
the scarcity of marriageable men. Women
enter the field of work which was forrrierly
i eserved tor the men. They work tor one
halr the remuneration which men demand
ed. As a consequence, the price of male
work dropped. A man formerly getting UOO,
for the same work receives only ISO now.
He could have married on tbe former sa'.ary.
but not on pl. t
."When young women enter business they
do so at their own cost, and to the -detriment
ot men. Their compensation does not
repay thern tor what they lose In chivalrlc
regard ot the sterner sex.
. "I suppose that ttn main caue for younir
women, who need not do so. going into busi
ness, is to free themselves from home re
straint. This is certainly not. a praise
worthy motive. Is there anything tetter
for both young men and women than good
home Influence? It Is equal to religion Iri
Its good effects." r
