TiIIman Seeks Chance of Venue.

human ScChS StaIiSS VI sS'NS'
In the circuit court at Columbia,
Monday, Judge D. A. Townsend presld-
ing the case Of James H. Til1man,
charged with murder, was taken up,
and a motion for a change of venue
heard.
On January 18th, last, T1llman, then
lieutenant governor, shot and killed
N. G. Gonzales, editor of The State,
who had repeatedly denounced him
when Tillman was candidate for gov
ernor last year.
The defense at Mondays hearing
produced about three hundred aff1dav-
it's to show that fair trial could not
be had in Richland county, because OF
the prejudice against the defendant.
The principal afidaHits were made by
the defendants counsel and friends
who asserted that the Columbia news
papers and preachers had melted feel
ings against Tillman by their refer
ences to the case.
The prosecution presented about
four hundred affidavits in reply. Prac-
tically all the ministers of Columbia
asserted that they have made no refer
ence to the case from their pulpits,
newspaper men, including w. E. and
A. E. Gonzales, respectively editor and
publisher of The State, stated in affi-
davits that the Columbia papers had
conspicuously and carefully refrained
from infammatory denunciations OF
the defendant These assertions were
backed by statements from bank presi.
dents, lawyers, physicians, college pro.
fessors. merchants and men in all
lines Of business, including many citi-
zens of the county outside of Columbia

TERROR SEXES UPON ALL
Captain Even Lionizcd by Young Wo'
men In Lexington, Who Desig'
nate Him as "the Bravest
Man in Kentucky."

The Herald, CT Lexington, KY, has
received the following letter from Mr..
Haddix. the man who testified in the
arson case at Jackson to seeing GER
tain named parties leaving Captain
Ewen's home just before the fire broke
out Sunday morning. 1t is apparently
written in his own handwriting and
is a pathetic testimonial to the deplor-
able state of affairs In Jackson:
jackson, KY, June II, 1903.-To
The Morning Herald, Lexington. KY
Dear Sir: will call your attention to
the fact about the mater about lne
burning of B. J. Ewens house on the
14th of June, 1908. l left the house
next door to B. J. Ewen's hotel, and !
saw one of the party come out OF the
gate in front Of the Even building
few minutes before the alarm OF hre.
He walked away from the gate, went
down the railway and ever since |
have been afraid to stay at home. Tne
second night after the burning two
men came to my house carrying some
thing in their hands. Their friends
say if I tell on the guilty party l Will
20 the same way Even or Marcum did.
I lived in the miners camp, and every
other miner knows the same that l
know il they would ten. But they are
afraid their houses will be burned up
by-friends. l remain yours,
GRAY HADDIX."
That Bribe Offered to Even.
From a staff correspondent sent to
Jackson to learn definitely the facts
as to the offer of $4,000 made to Cap
tain B. ]. Even to alter his testimony
as to seeing Jett in the corridor with
pistol in hand when Marcum was as
sassinated. The Herald has received
a sensational dispatch. 1t says:
From a source that is reliable and
authentic, it has been learned that the
full details of the offer of $4,000 to
Captain Even to perjure himself, was
communicated to State Inspector
Hines upon his last visit here, and
that he reported those facts to Cover
nor Beckham last week. The facts, in
substance, are tnat a man went to Cap
tain Even, made him the proposition
to pay him the sum stated if he would
either leave the county, or would
swear on the witness stand that he DID
not recognize the assassin OF Mar
cum. Captain Even told him that ne
would have to think the matter over,
and made an appointment for the man
to come to his house and told him to
bring the money. Arrangements were
made that when tie emissary returned
everything he said or did could be
heard and seen by witnesses. He re-
turned at the appointed hour and
brought five $1,000 notes. He repeat
with him five $1,000 notes. He repeat
ed his offer. Captain Even refused 1t
and told the man to take the money
back and that he could not use It.
Upon his refusal, the emissary lost his
temper and said it was. the worst mis-
take Even ever made; that he would
be burned out, destroyed and absolute
ly wiped out of existence"

The Reflex Influence.

One of the ways In which the con.
dition OF the people in the Orient and
in North Africa is to be improved may
be revealed as aconsequence OF immi.
grafton to America. When Turks,
Greeks, Armenians. E yyptians, Arabs
and the people of Eastern Europe
come in sufficient numbers to the
United States, and learn the posi-
bilities opened by science and in.
vention they will certainly infu-
ence public opinion 10 the countries
whence they came. Five thousand
Greeks in Lowell, Mass, will not be
without influence upon the peasantry
in their old home. The Turks and
Armenians that are coming in increas,
ing numbers will certainly carry or
send the lea yen of modern civiliz 4.
ton to those they have left behind
them. For this reason we ought to
have large delegation of Chinese al.
ways under instruction in America
for the benefit of the millions who re.
main at home,

The industrial sphere of women is
constantly enlarging, and of late
years women have been invading
every line of employment. From the
returns of the last census it appears
that out of SOB separate occupations
reported there are only eight in which
women workers fail to appear. 1t is
not surprising that there are no wo-
men among the soldiers, sailors and
marines of the United States govern
meut, yet there are 153 women en-
pic yed as "boatman" and sailors.
Women have not yet invaded the
ranks of the city fire departments !;
still not less than $40 women are re-
turned in the same general class of
s'watchmen, policemen and detec-
lives"
There are no women street car driv-
ers, though there are two women

Women have not as yet taken up
the employment of telegraph and tele-
phone "linemen,"yet 22,5O0 of them
are operators for these companies.
There are no women apprentices
and helpers among the roofers and

A Benefit TO the State.

Senator Proctor has expended a
great deal of effort in the matter of
Fort Ethan Allen and it must be very
pleasing to him to know that it is to
be enlarged and made the largest
cavalry post in the country. Some of
the army posts of the West are being
abandoned and the tendency is to
mass what troops we have within
reach of the large cities. Fort Ethan
Allen occupies an important strategic
position near the Canadian frontier
and under the new plans of the war
department will be kept up to the
possible necessitier. This enlarge
ment Ct he post will make it all the
more valuable as a meeting place for
the militia of the states.
