Tillman's Caudor.

Whatever may be said against Sen
ator Tillman, We cannot help admiring
his political courage and his blunt
frankness in dealing with political is
sues. Tillman calls a pitchfork a
pitchfork and spares not. He is quo
ted as having said in recent speech
that the dispensary was not intended
to be moral, but simply to give the
people plenty of good liquor and to
give the profits Of the liquor business
to the State instead Of the bar keep
ers.
This is the literal truth. The State
Of South Carolina is engaged in the
liquor business for the profit that
there is in it. Or perhaps we would
be nearer to the truth if We should
say that the Tillman party inaugurated
the dispensary system for the good
that they could get out Of it. Now
that Tillman has told the truth, let US
hear no more about the dispensary
system as movement in the interest
Of temperance. 1t is movement in
the interest Of politics, and while it
has been Of profit to politicians and
possibly Of profit to the State govern
ment, it has been a disgrace to the
people of South Carolina and a source

Washington Letter.
rom our regular correspondent.

From our regular correspondent.
Republican members of the house
are scrambling as eagerly as though
the big prize-the speakership-hsd
not been awarded months ago. The
chairmanships of committees and the
patronage of the house are the prizes
for which they are now struggling.
Cannon and Hit, both of Illinois,
have been assured of retaining their
places at the head of the spproprig-
tions and foreign committees; conse-
quently there Is no fight on either of
them, not because the selections are
acquiesced in but because they know
that fighting will be useless. The
biggest fight is over the craftsmanship
of the ways and means committee,
which carries with it the floor lead
ership of the party. Payne of New
York, was chairman of that commit
toe, after the death of Mr.. Dingley in
the last house, and he claims 1t again.
But several other members, including
Dalzell, of Pennsylvania and Hopkins,
of Illinois, think they have equal
claims, and as Mr.. Payne is not over
with members they are get
ting strong backing, The fact that
Illinois is already booked for two big
chairmsnships will probably operate
against Hopkins. a big shake-up Is
likely in the membership of the COM
mIttee on banking and currency,
which was packed by Reed for the
especial purpose OF preventing its re-
porting al6nsncial bill. In this house
it is to be packed for the purpose of
reporting a financial bill, the one de-
claring for SINGLE gold standard, to
which Mr. Henderson is committed.
The job OF recognizing the commitee
was made easy for Mr.. Henderson by
the failure of some of its most promi-
nent members, including its chair
man, "Joei' Walker, OF Massachusetts,,
to return TO the house. The old Reed
ofiOers of the house are all fghsing
for reelection.

a question of uniting the anti-repub-
