Mavkert had heard the whistle Of more
bullets around him than did Mr, Whit

and there was considerable confusion
for Z few minutes, but quiet soon was
restored and Nj. Tillman concluded his
speech

the West viii come to the South and
seek an alliance to raise the moneyed
oppression of the East.
Mr.. Tiliman closed with strong ap-
