Tlllman and His Brother Quarrel.

COLUMBIA, s. c., Sept. 18.-T The
proceedings of the Constitutional Con-
vention today were characterized by q
most exciting tilt between Senator
Tillman and his brother, George D.
Tillman, on the question Of naming .
new county. George D. Tillman on
Saturday had succeeded in getting the
county named Butler. Senator Tillman
was absent at the time and returning
today, he moved to change the name to
Saluda.
In q passionate speech he charged
Senator Butler with being traitor to
the party and said to name county
after him was an insult to the reformers
Of the state.
George d. Tillman, in replying,
tainted his brother with fighting man
whom he had defeated, and, dramatic
ally striking his breast, exclaimed !:
Thank God, there is no sentiment in
my heart that would make me stoop go
low.
Senator Tillman in his speech taunted
Senator Irby with not replying to his
brother, q. D. Tillman, ON Saturday,
and Irby in hot speech denounced
Tillman for stirring up strife in the
convention and said it came with i'll
grace from a man to hound his fallen
foe and declared that Butler in patriot
ism, honesty and courage was the equal
Of TiilHan or any other man in the
state. When vote was finally obtained
Senator Tillman carried his point and
the new county was named Saluda

A Liar Begins to Learn.

The VIGOROUSLY untruthful sheet
called Puck has shown a desire to learn
something regarding protection. 1t
wishes to know why the farmers of
the United States, who raise sheep, do
not equip their shearing sheds with
the expensive machinery that is found
on all the Australian sheep farms. The
answer is very simple. There the in
dustry of producing wool is carried on
by men who own their tens and hun
dreds of thousands of sheep occupying
their thousands and hundreds of thou
sands of acres, with investments
amounting, in many instances, to mil
lions of dollars. Here the sheep are
ra ised by large number of farmers,
each owning comparatively very
small number Of sheep, President
Cleveland says only from twenty-five
to fifty on. an average to each flock.
Our farmers cannot afford to buy and
pay for any costly machinery just to
shear these few sheep. This is one OF
the reasons why they need protection
