MIR. StiIIweII Has Some Things to
Say About the Saw Mill Mems
Gathering.
Editor Morning News: 1 note in
your dispatches from Jacksonville my
name among those reported as pres
ent at the mass meeting of sawmill
men in Jacksonville on March l. This
is an error which I respectfully ask
you, in justice to me, to correct. l
was purposely absent from this meet
ing, and my reasons therefor will be
specifically given at the next meet
ing of the Georgia Interstate Sawmill
Association in Jacksonville on March
Is.
The list of those present at this
meeting is also otherwise incorrect, as
its designation "sawmill men," The
actual number present was twenty
seven, not thirty-five, in response,
understand, to some $50 invitations,
and the correct list of those present
will show dealers, machinery and cy-
press men, unauthorized agents, nom
residents in territory interested, as
well as sawmill men, and this, al
though vehement protest was made at
a recent meeting of the Georgia Saw
mill Association by prime mover
hearing one word of suggestion from
dealers.
This is not the first time myself and
others, and also the Georgia Inter
state SawmiH Association, have been,
by acts of omission and commission,
misrepresented by some party or par
ties in that section presumably for
some Interior purpose the details of
which will also be presented at the next
meeting of the association.
The above is not intended and will
not in anywise reflect upon any of the
members of the Georgia Interstate
Sawmill Association who were present
at the above meeting, as they were
misled about its genesis, and from
pressure incident to the strenuous life
of the sawmill man. were debarred
from Analysing or realizing the true
import and effect of the meeting.
Neither does it apply to those who,
in the same way, were niisled into
signing the final call for the meeting

been asserting social equality.
Il have understood replied Mr.. Will

Mr.. Williams said that if what the
President had done was not TO carry
the light of example, it was done for
no purpose at all
It was an unconscious exhibition"
continued the minority leader, "of the
arrogance that teaches men now and
then to shed the light of example upon
the benighted white population of the
South"
Mr. Williams went on Nor am
quarreling with Mr.. Roosevelt nor
have l quarreled with him at all. He
has perfect right to invite a colored
man If he chooses, but rs far as
know he waited until he was President
of the United States, so it could bear
an official stamp before he ever did it,"
Mr. Scott said he had made no i'm
putation of fault against Mr.. Cleve-
land. He had simply pointed to the
allegation he made because the Demo-
cratic party had gone into mysteries
because one man had invited colored
man to his table.
''All right" said Mr.. Williams, Il am
glad to hear that, because l thought
the gentleman had a sharp stick and
was after my dear and much adored
