TlIlMAN SAYS HIS SAY.
Senator Does Not Think That Christians Re-
sented His Insults.

1 SGHbCu
Senator Tillman was in Columbia
last Saturday and gave out the follow
ing interview.
He. said: II have always believed
that the dispensary had the support
Of two-thirds of the people Of the
state and this election shows that Is
about the proportion. The vote for
Colonel Hoyt is several thousand more
than the anti-dispensary vote. In 9TH
er words his personal popularity and
his being an old Confederate soldier
added materially to the support he re-
ceived.
Another evidence Of the strength Of
the dispensary is in the complexion Of
the next legislature; Of course, the
figures are not complete, but I have
watched the county papers pretty close-
Ily and the members Of the house of
representatives who will support the
dispensary will be more than two
| thirds"
AS to his own vote and the scratch
| ing of his name, he said: Il was very
much gratifled to find that the strenu-
Gus efforts to array the religious peo-
pie Of the state against me had signally
failed. I have made q careful study
of the returns from several counties,
and do not believe that 1000 Of those
who scratched me were Influenced by
religious sentiment. The people could
not be made to believe that I had wan
tonly insulted the ministry or that l
was lacking in respect for religion. The
scratching came from my old pol1tlcal
antagonists of 80 and '92 and any one
who will take the trouble to examine
the returns from any county can easily
verify this. 1t Is very gratifying to
me to know that only about half OF
those who voted against me in '92
could be induced to scratch me this
year. It shows that the effort which
was made to revive factionalism sig
nally failed and many Of my friends
who voted for prohibition will. how
ever resent the scratching in the next
primary"
AS to whether there will be as large
a vote in the second primary as in the
first primary Senator Tillman said: II
hardly think so; but it will depend on
developments in the next week. The
friends of the dispensary will not be
caught mapping, I am certain, and If
the prohibitionists display any activity
the vote may be equaled or even sur
passed. There is one thing in which
I am sure and trust every one will join
me in hoping-that the result will be
decisive and that the state will have
relief from any further fighting on the
whisky question"

his wife Tuesday afternoon, and, while
intoxicated, met L. B. Roper and
threatened to kill him. Roper imme-
diately struck Tiger with a board, no
words passing between them. Tiger
went to his buggy, got Winchester
and came back to kill Roper, but
failed to find him on his return. En-
ragged, he proceeded to shoot every
one he saw shooting Jesse Beck
through the hips and killing him;
shooting and killing Dave Porter, a
nephew of Chief Porter, and mover
named johnson, on his way to Mis-
souri, in covered wagon with his
family. Bud Taylor, aged IS, boy,
was shot through the shoulder and is
not expected to live. Tiger immedi-
ately jumped on a horse and tried to
escape, but was pursued. Tiger was
chased three miles, when he jumped
off his horse, got behind tree and
began shooting. Deputy Marshal
johnson. who returned the fire, struck
Tiger in the arm. The murderer sur
rendered and was brought to Eufala.

Twice-a-week plain dealer. (Cresco, Howard County, Iowa) 1895-1913, 1900-12-28

Mimi, possessed of more love than
common sense, were married in the
county clerks Office Wednesday, after
noon, by Justice of the Peace Reed.
The groom, who was evidently short
on money, managed to pay for the
license and the wedding fee by Dor
rowing a dollar from his father-in-law,
% cents from the clerk and by Undue
ing the justice to give a SOC reduction
on his fee. We are also Informed that
the happy groom was compelled to
pawn his watch to get funds for their
transportation home. The livery
mans contract called for delivery at
Chester only, and as he asked $l.75
more for delivery at the home of the
couple and the groom could not raise
the necessary funds, the happy, though
we suppose somewhat weary couple,
finished their wedding trip on foot.

HANsoN-In Orleans, Dec. IA, 1900,
Hattie, infant daughter Of Mr.. and
Mrs. Gabe Hanson, aged 6 months
and 8 days.
Dear Hattie now has left us,
Rut she has only gone before:
She has left a world Of sorrow.
All troubles now are DER.
For she has entered the heavenly
And is with the blessed one; Tportais
;, She is now heavenly angel,
Her task on earth is done.
Jesus only lent her to us
TO remain little while;
lie knows her many virtues,
How her heart was free from guile.
And We who mourn for Hattie,
Look now to God, alone;
You VIII soon be with your darling,
Around the great white throne.
We must put our trust in Jesus,
md do as he has hidden,
SO when our cares are Ger,
we may enter the realms of heaven.

/ ing for Fargo, N. D., where he has q
good position in the shipping depart
ment of a recently established whole
sale house. 1t is good position with
chances for advancement, which will
no doubt fall to his lot as his ability
and faithfulness will deserve them.
The Beers in South Africa, heaven
bless them, are on top again. Their
struggle reminds us of the struggle OF
the Americans under Gen. Greene in
Revolutionary days when the British
after brilliant successes were driven
out of the Carolinas eliminating ia
the surrender at York town. A like
glorious result for the Beers is the
prayer of patriotic Americans.
On the first or January There will
/ be change in two of our business
firms. Z. j. Lomas, the hardware
man, will take his son, Frank, into
partnership, but the style of the new
firm name is not yet decided upon.
The junior member will have charge
OF the business and is amply compe-
tent and popular as the many patrons
OF the store can testify. The other
change is in the DRUG firm of Tomas 81
Son; II. E. Tomas retiring and being
succeeded by VIM. MILF who has pur-
chased an interest in the business.
Those two yonng men will make a
strong and popular firm, as both are
affable statesmen, posted in their bust
ness and thoroughly reliable.
1880 invested in DaLaval cream
separators will secure Is machines

pounds, in addition he would get
lighter running machines and easier
cleaning machines. The National

milk than a DeLaval and requires l. IS
than half the repairs. National re-
pairs cost about so per cent of the,
cost of DeLaval repairs. The National
agent has sold more separators than
any other separator agent in this
vicinity during the past year, This
has been done entirely without can
