In replying to the charge made
against him by President Roosevelt
that he (Tillman) had exerted his Of
fetal influence as a senator for his
own benefit to bring suit against
various railroads of the northwest in
order that he might be able to pur-
chase land held by the Southern Ore
gon Land Company and granted to
the state of Oregon for the construc-
tion of a military road in 1868, the
senator from South Carolina said:
II have not hesitated to criticize
and comment upon the official actions
and utterances OF the president, and
doubtless | have given him good
cause to seek revenge.
For the first time in the history
of this government member of the
senate has been brought to the bar
of public opinion before the senate
itself to be Judged under an indict
meut by no less a person that the
president of the United States. and
his manner in doing il and the ami
mus and zeal displayed by the chief
executive is worthy of considerations.
Senator Tillman then called the
attention of his auditors to the pub
lication of the charges before they
were considered by the committee of
referred, and declared that the presi
dent had treated the senate with that
contempt which had been his wont.
He declared that the president was
an adept at advertising, and had used
the press with more skill than any
man in American politics.
Another probable reason for his
haste in the matter. he said. was that
the president sought to distract at
tention from the action of the house
of representatives last Friday in lay
ing "A part of his message on the ta-
BILE.
The president. he said. had pre-
pared the accusation against him
with consummate ability and skill.
He had been in possession of the facts
since last July. and fair-minded men
would be curious to know why. if he
was honest and sincere in the mat
ter. he did not make them public
then.
Senator Tillman said that he did
not deny the authenticity OF the let

claimed We're perfectly legitimate.
Concluding, the senator said that
he courted the fullest investigation
and invited a comparison of his pri-
vate and public life with that of the
president.
Senator Tillman closed his speech
at pm. There was no demonstra-
tion or applause. and the immense
crowd rapidly left the room,

tor said:
