Tillman and the Newspapers.

Governor Tillman, of South Carolina,
has succeeded in fixing the attention Of
the world on himself. but he will hardly
be pleased with all of the observations
made with respect to his doings.
The South Carolina press had long
pictured him as 81 man of czarish dispo-
sition, but outside editors were disposed
to think that our brethren down there
might be liytle prejudiced against him
on account of his Populistic politics and
rigid inspectotship of private bottles. The
order OF the Governor attempting to re-
strain the liberty of the press, however,
showed him up as the man that he is
man afflicted with the "big head: q
courageous man. We have no doubt, but
foolish one. BY this time he has found
out that though he may put censor
ship on dispatches from South Carolina
he can't prevent enterprising newspaper
men from boarding railway-cars and going
to North Carolina or Georgia, there to file
their dispatches. This very thing was
done on Saturday and Sunday-though on
Sunday, at the solicitation of Senator
Irby. Tillman made some sort of modih-
cation of his press ukase. The Southern
Associated Press were allowed to send
their dispatches without hindrance. we be-
lieve.
The finest piece Of Especial work we have
seen from South Carolina Is the dispatch
which appeared In yesterdays Philadei-
phia Press. The author OF 1t got his facts
In Columbia and then went to Charlotte.

and had 1t telegraphed to Philadelphia.
One OF the most dramatic incidents In

Of the Governor to the Governors Guard.

dorsers now they can borrow all the

millions OF dollars lying idle and yieldlhg

To add a hundred millions 20 the volume

We are not so much surprised Mt the
appointment Of the Hon. Patrick Walsh
as United States senator to fiji the unex-
PRED term Of Mr.. Coquitt as that he
has consented 10 accept the position.
We suppose. however, that his sense OF
duty to the public has caused him To
surrender his objections To being
torn away from his post as owner and
editor of the Augusta Chronicle and gen
eral manager Of the Southern Associated
Press.
That Mr.. Walsh will serve Georgia we'll
We have no doubt, and we trust, as one

he offered the article which has called
