Gov, Tillman's Standing.


To the Editor of The Evening Star:
In your issue of yesterday you publish an ar
ticle on ''South Carolina Politics." in which
the following language is used in reference to
Gov. BENZ. r. Tillman:
"a man of fair education, with rough and I'M
couth manners, with countenance which
would bar its owner out Of the society Of de-
cent men anywhere, Tillman had a political ga
gacity to that the volatile and excitable peo-
pie of this peculiar commonwealth wanted
something in the way of change, something to
excite and stir their blood
Evidently your correspondent is not posted
on the subject which he handles so roughly or
he is prejudiced against Gov. Tillman. l have
known land known Of the Tillmans for years.
They are famed for refinement uprightness,
candor,' unusual intelligence. being well-read
people and great of hospitality. Mrs. Tillman,
the mother Of Gov. b. r. Tillman and of our
honOred VI. c., Hon. Geo. ID. Tillman. even in
her old age was a woman Of great refinement
and of bright. keen intellect. In 1876 it was my
pleasure to enjoy the hospitality of her house
for one night. She was then an old lady (she
has since died). l will never forget with what
animation she discussed the topics Of the day,
with occasional references to well-known
standard works and authors. Her table was
covered with late leading daily papers and with
magazines of recent date.
Their good standing In South Carolina has
never been questioned, and If Gov. Tillman
saw fit to work in the interest Of the farmers,
of which he is one, departing from the customs
Of the old regime, being free man. not afraid
to speak his convictions, 1 think he should be
allowed to do so without such sweeping asser-
tions. which regard as a cruel SANDER. The
governor has been accustomed to the best
of society all his life. ENC.
