1t is understood that ex-Lieutenant
Governor Tiliman will say in his de-
tense that he had been threatened by
Gonzales, and when he met him he
thought the editor was armed. Here is
the only statement he has made:
when the facts are known, the peo-
pie of this country will see how thor
oughly | was justified in acting as
did in this unfortunate affair. Beyond
this l care to make only this statement,
namely, that 1 thought Gonzales was
armed. and had every reason to so be-
lieve.
JAMES H. TILLMAN."
Fortunately, for the cause of justice,
Mr.. Gonzales made a declaration after
he was shot, that will stand against the
word of Tillman. Here it is:
II had just left my office and was on
my way home, when 1 saw Tillman COM
ing up the street. Two men were with
him; one of them Senator Talbird; the
other one l did not know. They were
walking abreast, and as the street was
crowded, I probably would have brushed
against Tillman in passing. To avoid
this, I walked across the pavement to
pass on the inside. AS l was doing this,
Mr. Tillman fired / was dazed and
weakened by the shot. Coming to my
self in a moment, however, / leaned
against the building for support, and in
that moment, with the revolver still in
his hand, Tillman said:
CT have done what you told me-
"Mr. Tillman aimed the pistol at me
again. I denounced him, saying:
You've killed me, you coward. Shoot
again If you want to-"
Mr.. Tillman then lowered his revolver
and walked off. Most positively l had
not sent him any messages. The meet
ing with Tillman was unexpected, and !
was unarmed.
IN. G. GONZALES"
Mr. Gonzales, looking death in the
face, recognizing that Tillman had kill
ed him, had no incentive to do other than
speak the truth. Tillman has every mo-
tive to invent theory or a defence that
will save his neck.

Among the Railroads.

George Vanderbilt is whirling eastward
in his palatial Pullman, the ''Swan-
nanoa" The 'Swannanoa" is sixty two
feet long and the floor is constructed of
six inches of solid steel. This makes it
impossible, trainmen say, for the Pull
man. or the Vanderbilt in it, to be
wrecked in a smash up.
The tons of steel would simply pillow
their way through the cars in front, and
those squashed in the chair seats would
have the double satisfaction of feeling
that George was entirely safe, and that
it was Georges car that was doing the
souashing. In the case of a head on col
lision the engine and the steel car would
simply grind the lighter coaches between
them into matchwood.
1t takes a vast anxiety from our mind
to feel that George is safe.-Atlanta

The arguments made yesterday after
that were made against the creation of
the Corporation Commission and they
were made by the same men. The same
sort of lobby that is opposing the Fuller
bill opposed the creation of the Railroad
Commission.

Henry Miller says the Fuller bill is "a
very dangerous bill" He said the same
