meeting here Friday. We there

special from Lancaster to the
Columbia Record
Senator Tillman and Messrs
Finley and Strait spoke here
today. The meeting was opened
with prayer by Rey. Paul Press
ley, after which County Chair
man Williams introduced Sena-
tor Tillman as zone who had
always been the friend of the
masses"
The senator opened by saying
that he had addressed them on
previous occasions, when they
were very much stirred up, and
about six times as many people
present. For twelve years he
had been their senator and it
was unfortunate that no one
was opposing him-unfortunate
for the people and for him
There was no one to stir him up
or stir the people up, and leth.
argy prevailed. People had tried
to persuade him not to speak
but he was as much interested
about their affairs as he had ev-
er been before he was elected
senator, and he came among
them because he believed he
ought to come. They must have
voted for him in the past be
cause they liked his principle
and the way he called a spade
a spade, he had been trusted and
h onOred by them and he took il
that the obligations of "leader-
ship" were on him. If not their
leader what was he? Some Of
you like me. "Most of us do"
yelled an enthusiastic admirer.) J
"Well, | think you were died
in-the wool sixteen years ago
and haven't COTTON over it yet, ;"
said the senator to the amuse
ment Of the crowd.
He would never accept office
and go off quitely when he be-
lieved people were trying to
trick you, but | smell it," he
said, and the crowd laughed. He
could not dictate if he wanted to,
he said, and be had too much
sense to try. He was discussing
their interests and he wanted
the "hocus pocus Brice bill
killed.
He declared the liquor ques
tion could not be satisfactorily
settled under that law, becuse a

but when we were going 10 have

well keep the revenue from it

force the people to violate the

We have got 10 do what we can
TO minimize the evil of liquor,
the best that we can do under
the circumstances, and The dis
pen sary was the best solution
for the interests of the people
and morality.
Referring to the combination
by legislators against the dispen-
sary he said he took the respon.
sibllity, as one whom they had
honored, to tell them he would
not vote to return those voting
for the Morgan bill because they
had betrayed the people.
Col. Hemphill had said that
newspaper government was the
