AGAINST THE LAW.
Senator TilIman Liable to q Fine OF
$1,000 to $4,000.

The Raleigh News and Observer holds
that Senator Tillman, because of his free
use Of deadhead privileges in the way of
free passes on the railroads and free
franks from the telegraph company, and
free transportation from the express
companies, is mo worse or no better than
his colleagues" That is generous view
to take of the matter, but it is not q
correct view, as our contemporary must
admit if it will only recall the fact that
it was Senator Tillman himself who
made the fight against the use of free
passes by any officer of the State govern
ment in South Carolina-News anC
Courier.
The News and Observer says:
Senator Tillman says that member:
of congress are loaded down with fret
passes The interstate commerce ac
forbids free passes under penalty o.
not less than 81 900 and not more thar
$4,000 The North Carolina statutes
which our courts enforce, is verbatim
copy of the United States statute. Why
is it that no federal district attorney
takes steps to enforce the United States
law Do federal judges and distric
attorneys accept these favors? ANY
member of congress, judge or any othe
public officer who takes them, violate
his oath to obey the constitution ant
laws of the United States"

Large Crowds to Attend The Pris
Oner Comfortably Fixed.

A special from Lexington to the
Spartanburg Journal says:
About a month hence it is expected
that this little town will be entertaining
the largest number of visitors ever known
in it's history. The trial of James II.
Tillman for the murder of n. G. Gonzales
in Columbia is set for that time, and it is
generally believed will be delayed no
longer. Almost FIVE hundred witnesses
have been summoned to appear in this
case by the opposing sides.
All available space in the hotels has
been engaged weeks since by interested
parties, and how the immense number OF
spectators sure to be on hand will be
accommodated is an interesting problem
The last census gave the town some
thing over nine hundred inhabitants. 1t
is thought that at least five thousand will
be here during the trial.
Meantime the prisoner occupies his
cell in the Lexington county Jail. Sheriff
Caughman has made him as comfortable
as possible, putting him on the shady
side of the building on the first floor neal
the sheriff's own quarters and occasion
ally permitting him to exercise himself
by walking up and down the corridor
As rule the sheriff does not lock the
cell from the outside but leaves the lock
| for Tillman to turn if he so desires.
Three times a day Mr. Marks, who
keeps restaurant just behind the jail
can be seen bringing the prisoner hi:
meals. Tillman states that he finds hi!
quarters here pleasanter than those IL
the Richland Jail, where he was imprls
oned during some warm days OF May
and June
Many visitors attracted by curiosity o.
other motives go to see the noted prls
oner. Some time since his wife and little
daughter spent several days in Lexington
with relatives and made frequent visit:
to the Jail. Others of his kinsfolk have
been here from time to time. Tillman':
little nephew, a handsome boy Of sever
summers, is staying in the Jail to wal
upon his uncle and is said to be genera
favorite with the prisoners.
Speculation as to the verdict in th'
case is almost useless As stated above
Mrs. James H. Tillman has relatives il
people feel much real sympathy for her
1t is doubtful if the same feeling exists IL
her husbands case. The belief of almos
all those who have read the newspaper
and care to express themselves, is tha
theact was genuine murder and shoult
be punished At the same time it shoul(
he remembered that Senator Tillman ha
always had a large following in tn
county whatever his nephew's following
! uae and this fact is almost sure Il
influence some jurymen.
So far sentiment does not seem to haY'
crytallized, but it will be surprise i
Tillman is either acquitted or sentenced
to be hanged as a result of this trial
Not few look for a mistrial and thel
another application for bail.

On the Right Line.

The proposed enlargement of the
Ehrhardt Tobacco Factory at Bamberg
by a joint stock company with sufficient
capital and up-to-date energy is on the
right line That is the only right way in
which the cultivation of the weed can be
profitably continued and the tobacco
trust effectively fought. South Carolina
tobacco for South Carolinians should be
the rule now and hereafter. Profit in
such venture will of course depend on
the management of the business. South
Carolina tobacco is all right Of itself, and
if properly manufactured and pushed
will not only supply the home market
but be puffed everywhere.
We have tested the Ehrhardt tobacco
and it is good enough for us-or any
body.-Barnwell People.

A Barbecue in LeXin gtOn.

At barbecue given over in Lexington
Thursday Senator Tillman was present
and made speech. Naturally the people
expected him to say something about his
free pass experience, but he did not pre-
tend to make any denial of the fact that
he used them nor did he attempt to eX-
plain how it was that he accepted free
transportation from railroads. He con
tented himself by saying that the whole
thing was an eagerly grasped opportuni
ty to attack him on part of his enemies
especially the newspapers, adroitly avoid
ing any explanation of his violation o
the law of the State in having passe:
forced" on him. Otherwise the senator
talked on national politics and disagreed
with his colleague, Senator Latimer, OF
his scheme to have large appropriation
from the government for good road
building because it was impracticable.-

The TharnHalI Orphanage.

The Thornwell Orphanage, located in
Clinton, South Carolina, is an institution
for the primary, high school and
advanced education, both literary and
technical, of orphan boys and girls. The
institution is under the control of trus
tees appointed by the three Synods OF
South Carolina, Georgia and Florida, but
it receives pupils from any religious
denominations and from any part OF oul
common country.
Orphans to be received, must be with.
out means of support of their own and
hence the care of them rests upon the
general public. Contributions for the
aid of the institution are not ordered oy
any church court; there are no agents
canvassing the field asking for money
there are no collection boxes on the
premises of the institution. The only
dependence of these orphans for their
daily bread is on the goodness OF God
the printed page, and the generous help
given BY the press in spreading informa
ton about the work.
The boys and girls are not legally
bound to the institution but are free to
come and 60. They choose to come

the institution. As they are well taught
in their books and trained in various
trades, such as printing, carpentry, farm

always able to take care Of themselves on
leaving US.
We have one hundred and two orphans
from South Carolina, fortytwo from
Georgia, sixteen from Florida, and forty
two from twelve other States and
territories.
Those who love the fatherless, (all OF
our two hundred children are fatherless)
can aid by sending flour, molasses, sugar,
rice, meal, or any other kind of proyis-
ions except vegetables, (Which they raise
for themselves or by gifts of money:
The sum of FIVE dollars will board and
clothe a child for one month. Almost
anybody can by that small gift, be pro-
tector of some orphan for thirty days:
This may be sent simply to Thornwell
Orphanage, or to Rev. DR.. Jacobs, Clin-
ton, 8. c., who will take pleasure in
giving additional information to any
asking for it.
