LET'S HIM OUT.
Governor Tillman, Of South Carolina, Makes
Reply to Charges Of Dishonesty, and
That He PrOfted Personally Through
Sales of Whisky to the State

COLUMBIA, S. c., December 9.-The
charges made against the honesty of Gov
ernor Tinman in a letter from H. f. Perry
to j. Ashley, a member of the House Of
Representatives of this State, which was
recently distributed here, have brought
forth an answer from the Governor.
In the letter referred to 1t was insinuated
that Governor Tillman could not save from
his salary a sufficient sum to pay for
farm he recently purchased, and for which
he is said to have given $1,000; asserted
that he had defrauded the State of thous-
ands of dollars, and had received seven
per cent. rebate on whisky bought throu ugh
the dispensary law.
The reply to these charges was made to-
night by Governor Tillman, through w.
A. Clark, President of the Carolina Ma
tional Bank. He says Tillman has been a
borrower from the bank since the early
months in 1891. He owes the bank now
about s., coo in the form Of two notes, one
for the sum of $1,000, which has been run
ming for some time and will mature at an
early day. The other is for the sum OF
SO. 100. which is endorsed by three persons
and secured bya mortgage Of what is
known as the'3opes plantation, and two
other plantatiots.fear Trenton. This lat
ter sum was borrowed by Governor Till
man for the purpose Aof paying for the
plantation near Trenton, which he bought
The plantation purchased was included in
the mortgage given TO secure the endorser.
All of those mortgages are matters or
record in Edgefed county.
An agent of the Mill Greek Distilling
Company, is here and he says that when
Tmman purchased the liquor from them
he did so without the rebate Of seven cants
per proof gallon, as be said he did not care
TO wait six months for their collection.
The agent also asserts that no rebate or
any other money has been paid py the COM
pany to Traxler, the liquor commissioner,
to Tillman or anybody else IN any way
connected with the dispensaryM

All Of the leading papers in st. Paul
are now set up by typesctting ma
chimes What will become of the
printers, rs intelligent class Of work
men as can be found anywhere? Shall
we call them workmen? Why not call
them professional men? A good
printer Is II genius, and after he has
been good printer for some years, he
Is learned man. Not all boys or all
men can become printers. From the
ranks of the printers have come vast
numbers Of She Nations most useful
men. Nearly every great paper in the
land owes its foundation and its build
ing up to the genius, broad minded
ness, energy and good management of
printers. Some of the greatest men
who have held seats in congress were
printers: some Of our greatest cabinet
ministers were printers, and our minis
tiers to foreign countries; many of our
best governors were printers Many a
great lawyer and doctor and minister
Of the gospel was great because he
was first good printer. Both armies
in the last American war contained
thousands of men who were as good
soldiers as they were printers men in
the ranks, line officers, field and gener
III officers. Better hearted and brainier
men have come from no class or pro-
fession. Is this source of supply of
great and useful men to be cut off by
the type setting machine? Is there
reason to believe that the manipula-
ton of n Merganthal, or any other
type setting machine, will grow up a
Franklin, Greeley, Reid, or any
army of mon like those who have
come to the world from the printers

A Good Story of the War.


Col j. A. Wntrous, In Milwaukee Telegraph
d. Il. Jacobs, Of Mineral Point, a
popular travelling man and very en-
thuslastic ex-soldier, told me this story
while at Fennimore.
"Ours was the 9th Illinois. We
were at Harper's Ferry when Jackson
appeared and scared General Miles
into surrender About the first
thing the Conference.-The was to Sc
cure the flags of the Union regiments.
When they came to us our flag could
not be found. Careful search was
made without It's discovery. Then the
colonel of u Confederate regiment
went to our colonel and insisted that
he surrender his nag The colonel
said that he could not do 1t because he
did not know where 1t was. Finally
Stonewall Jackson appeared himself
and demanded the flag and when told
that it had disappeared and could not
DC found he denounced the regiment
and said that the colonel and his men
were acting in an unsoldierly and un-
manly manner, but that did not get the
flag.
We started as u regiment for Rich
mond and the third day out had ms
guards some young militiamen. 1t
was finally decided to parole us and
lot us find our way back to the Union
lines. When within n mile Of oul
lines Commotion was created by Ser.
geant Erickson, of the color guard
who threw off his coat, rushed to q
fence and seized stake. Those who
were not near him supposed that somt
of the boys had gotten into a fight
among themselves, but they Learned

Erickson, tearing open his shirt, I'M
