70 MARK GRAVES or Asaees
And Historic Spots Markers arc Furalshsd
By She Government FREQ Of Charge.

The following letters from the Ma
tional Committee for the Preserva-

PLANTATION. They illustrate the fact
that the Daughters of the American
Revolution are living up to the prin-
ciples laid down in their constitu-
tion. The following are extracts
from letters written by Mrs. MatA
thew w. Scott, chairman of the
above named committee:
"Our government on request to the
Adjutant General at Washington
will send granite marker, and the
only expense to chapter or individual
is the transfer from freight yard, and
setting up of the stone"
Note.-Historic spots are marked
with granite. Graves of Revolu-

! Senator riIIman', Letter.

Mr.. Tillman'a expected letter. to
the people of the State is before us.
The various daily papers of the State
printed it in full on Sunday. We
are unable to give it to our readers
on account of it's length. He gives
his views on just two questions, the
dispensary and the "control of the
Democratic party by majority of
all the Democrats, rather than BY a
small fraction of the voters" He
discusses both at some length. He
writes the letter "only from sense
of the highest public duty" because
burdsned as he is "with national
ncerns" nothing but "obligations
to the people" could induce him TO
"take upon his shoulders the addi.
tional work of directing attention to
matters affecting this State alone"
He continues that the newspapers
of the State have recently given him
a great deal of advice that he should
attend to his duties at Washington
and leave the direction of home af.
fairs to others. Also that in the
coming campaign that he should dis
cuss national issues that he is
warned and threatened should he al.
low this counsel to pass unheeded by
him.
Then he speaks as follows: "I have
never sought to dictate to the people |;
have only told them the truth as
see it, giving my opinions for what
they are worth, and am always
willing to abide by their action,
whatever it may be. 1t is 80 in this
instance"
So this letter is not to be oonsid-
cred as dictatorial, no matter how
much it may sound that way. The
Senator is just giving us his opinion,
sand we may read, and then act as we
think best. The people of the State
have been doing good deal of their
own thinking for the past few years.
They will, of course, continue to do 80.
Mr.. Tillman says he scorns all sug.
gestions of cowardly non-interference
in State affairs. "The people," says
he, "know me too we'll to be fooled
by the assertion that it is my desire
to boss or dictate, for my sole pur-
pose is to give them the benefit of
my experience and knowledge and
offer such advice as, in my judgment,
will be conducive to the public well
fare" But he says also that he will
abide cheerfully by whatever oonclu.
sion they reach. He quotes the
motto of Jefferson, "Teach the peo-
pie and trust the people," and says
that is also his motto.
The Senator next calls to mind
the "revolution in South Carolina"
sixteen years ago, which "gave the
common ped PILE of the State, for the
first time in its history, that recogni-
tion which was their due and made
them in reality the masters of public
affairs" Then comes a commenda-
tion of the present primary system.
He warns the people that another
"ring" is forming now, whose head
quarters are in The State. office in
Columbia.
Me does not consider the elections
under the Brice act as fair, as only
qualified electors were allowed to par
ticipate. In the fifteen counties
which have voted out the dispensa y
he gives the vote as 6,315 for the
dispensary; 1880 against it f;
whereas in the primary election for
Governor in 1904, 54,730 votes were
cast.
He has also compiled table show.
