What TlllmRn Sayf.

COLUMBIA s. G., Aug. 30 -Governor
F1llman was asked yesterday by report
ers Tor Conservative papers to explain
the light Reform vote throughout the
State. He said:
Until somebody explains why the
Conservatives Of Columbia and Char
lesion did not turn out and vote, It is
not nj cess3ry for us to say ANYTHING
about the light Reform vote. The
Conservatives have everything their
way in these two cities and the Re.
formers have everything their way in
the country, and they didn't exert
themselves. In most OF the counties
there was no opposition ticket to spur
the Reformers to action. The reitera-
t1on of the cry Of a ling is not going to
scare anybody or muster up any votes.
give notice now that we are not 90

GOVERNOR TILLMAN'S ANSWER.
Governor Tilllnan yesterday sent the
following answer to Colonel Brown:

Governor Tillman yesterday sent the
following answer to Colonel Brown:
columbia. S. g., August 90, 1893.
"Mr. Mike Brown, BarnWell, $. q.
"Dear Sir: "Your letter Of the 28th
has just been received. Had you writ.
ten sooner, whether your complaint Is
just Or not, l would have seen to 1t
that you had no cause for censure, by
removing Mr.. GriEbin to another field
and thus the lamentable tragedy which
has darkened your own household and
left widow with four children to
struggle alone with the world, might
have been averted.
CAS- usual thing constables are al
ways sent from home and had known
that there was any cause Of friction
Mr.. Gribbin would have been detailed
for duty outside of Barnwell County.
at Is needless for me to say that 1
regret the sad catastrophe which could
have so easily been aYerted had you
written your letter sooner.
VERY respectfully,
"B. Il. HILLMAN, Governor"
P.S.-In regard to the alcohol be-.
longing to Mr.. Buckingham, his own
letter Is sufficient answer. Alcohol is
kept for sale by all the Dispensers and
the package in question was marked
groceries, Mr.. Buckingham could
have gotten the alcohol legitimately
and when he risked smuggling 1t in
stead Of buying from Dispensary he
has no just cause Of complaint. Con-
stables have no discretion IN such
cases. TO release contraband liquor
under such circumstances would mean
instant removal. Mr.. buckingham
should have had the camphor and alco-
hOl mixed in Charleston. 1t was not
medicinal until 1t was mixed.
