and all of the thirty-three cars of the
train left the track, the engine taking
one side of the trestle and landing on
its back half buried in the ground,
the cars piling up in a great mass of
twisted wreckage on the other side.
For some reason the brakes refuse
to work after the heavy train had
started down the mountain side and
the runaway train soon developed ter

Says Tnlman Is a Dictator.
[Kershaw Era. I

There is perhaps no parallel in the
history of this State of the spectacle
now being presented to the people
of South Carolina of representative
whom they have 30 highly and 80 sig
nally honored abusing their conf
dence to the degree that is being
done by the senior Senator from this
State. He has become 30 besotted

himself to have had delegated to him

submissively and uncomplsiningly.
We have not agreed with Senator
Tillman always, but we have not
failed to recognize his ability and
the splendid opportunity he has had
of distinguishing himself in most
favorable manner. But he has not
chosen the method of leaving his
impression upon the history of the
State that would have redounded
much more to his credit than will be
his lot. Every renewed expression
OF confidence by the people has been,
attended on his part with a large
assumption of power. This is un-
questionably due to the fact that his
election has been regarded as of
course, and no one has had the
temerity to oppose him. Senator
Tillman is able, but he is not infalli-
BILE; he is useful, but not indispensa-
BILE, and his repeated unwarranted,
vituperatlve and intolerable exceria-
tions of those who differ with him in
matters of morality and public policy
deserve and should receive the Just
condemnation and rebuke of the
sovereign people who sought to
know him as representative, but
did not confer upon him the office of
dictator.

committed with intent.
Judge Kirlicks further held that a
wink, accompanied by an intent, is a
