TILLMAN DISCUSSES RACE.
Will be Close Fight Between Jones
and BleaSe.

In the Augusta Chronicle OF
Thursday is the following interview
with Senator B. R. Tillman by ]. l..
McWhorter, of the Chronicle staff:
1.-The statement given by Gov.
Blease at Barnwell Tuesday contains
nothing new to me; for it is only a
re-Write of a letter I wrote him re-
Gently, and in which I wrote moth
ing to lead him to believe>that l had
any intention of doing otherwise in
the approaching gubernatorial con-
test than I stated to you when you
were here few weeks ago; that is,
that I intend to remain strictly neu-
tral in the campaign said Senator
B. R. Tillman yesterday, at his home,
in Trenton, to a representative of the
Chronicle.
Will Not Knife Blease.
"I could not afford to take sides
in the contest, for both Gov. Blease
and Judge Jones are personal and
political friends of mine, and l have
told Blease that. I also told him
that, if saw reason to take sides
against him at any time, I certainly
would not knife him, but would tell
him before I told any one else."
Senator Tillman smiled several
times, and winked, during the read
ing of an article to him by the news
paper man-he somehow had miss
ed getting his paper yesterday.
''It is going to be close fight,
he said, "and Blease is losing no
time. He is making friends, while
Judge Jones is seemingly doing moth
ing yet. The newspapers, somehow,
always have some kind of story
about Blease, while you see very lit
tie about Judge Jones.
Blease is Mistaken.
s'There are two things in Blease's
statement that he is mistaken in,
though.
Zone is with regard to Richards
being in frame-up to bring Judge
Jones out to oppose him. Why,
know that Richards was seriously con-
sidering entry into the race himself.
It has been his ambition to be gov
error, and he thought that, with my
condition-supposed to be liable to
drop off at any moment-if he could
beat Blease and be governor, he
would be in line for promotion and
be able to beat any other man; and
he was one of the most surprised
men in the State when Judge Jones
announced himself.
'eThe other error Blease makes is
in saying that I was about to publish
a letter endorsing him in 1910, but
was persuaded from it by news

SWIFT JUSTICE FOR INDIAN.
Cherokee Sentenced to Death for
Murder of Young Girl.

Greensboro, N. c., Oct. 27.-Per-
haps the quickest time in which a
capital case was ever disposed Of in
North Carolina, was at Bryson City
yesterday, when Ross French, a
Cherokee Indian, charged with the
brutal murder of little 14-year-old
Ethel Shuler, was tried, convicted
and sentenced to electrocution in
less than one-half days session. No.
vember 25 was set as the date of elec-
trocution.

BARNES-CLECKLEY SHOOTING.
Mr.. Fisher Cleokley Gives His YER
sion Of the Affair.

The Cope correspondent of the
News and Courier sends that paper
an extended account of the shooting
of Mr.. Jehu w. Barnes by Mr.. J..
Fisher Clsckley, as given by Mr..
Cleckley himself.
Mr.. Cleckley's statement boiled
down, is as follows
Barnes went to the farm run by
Cleckley and had some words with
Samuel Carson, a tenant OF Cleck-
ley's. Later Barnes with Mr.. How
ell Easterlin went to different places
in search of Carson, but did not
find him. Still later when CleckIey
was on his way to his farm he over
took Carson in the road and took
him in his buggy. In the road fur
ther on they met Barnes and Easter
lin in a buggy. The two buggies
when about to pass each other were
stopped, Barnes asking Carson two
questions, which he answered in the
negative; then Barnes got angry and
reached for his pistol between him
self and Easterlin. Cleckley says he
warned Barnes three times not to
use his pistol, but Barnes kept get
ting it out OF it's case and leveled 1t
at Carson. Clsckley drew his pistol
and the firing began, 1t not being
known who fred first. Barnes, 1t
appears, shot at Carson. Cleckley
says Barnes shot at least four times,
as there are four holes or dents from
bullets in his buggy, and other bull
lets could have gone astray. Cleckley
says there were four empty shells
on the ground where they fell when
Barnes unbreached his pistol to re-
Load.
After the shooting all got out Of
their buggies, and Barnes struck
Carson with a stick. Carson tried to
get Barnes's crutch to hit him back,
but Cleckley kept him from doing it.
Neither Carson nor Easterlin did any
shooting.
Mr.. Cleckley says that he has en-
gagged Raysor & Summers as attor-
neys. It is understood, however,
that no warrants have been issued
for any of the parties connected with
the affair.
The above is. given only as Mr..
Cleckley's version. No statement
has been given out by Mr.. Barnes.
Mr.. Barnes, who was the only one
wounded, is said to be getting along
all right-Orangeburg Sun.

Fourteenth Husband.

Portland, Ore., Oct. 23.-A record
for matrimonial engagements was
laid before United States District
Judge Evans when Nellie Lane, an
Indian woman of the Siletz tribe, in
troduced Moses, a rotund and COM
plaisant member of the same tribe,
as her fourteenth husband.
The information was furnished
voluntarily with evident pride while
Nellie was being questioned as pros
pective witness before the federal
grand jury investigating the sale OF
liquor to Indians.
Moses smilingly admitted that he
was a mere beginner in the matri-
monial field, having been married
only four times.

speaks of, but I did not publish it.
changed my mind and no newspaper
had anything to do with that letter
not being published after it was writ
en-.
"However, I voted for Blease in
the second primary. I voted for
Richards in the first"
He Would Fight Blease.
Commenting further on the situa-
ton, or, as he called it, "muddle,
the senator said that because he had
proclaimed neutrality it did not fol-
low that he must maintain an armed
neutrality.
sBut," he said, "if Tom Fielder,
or any one else, goes before the
legislature and proves - actually
proves-that Blease is, or has been,
crooked, I'll take sides quick and
fight him; for South Carolina is a
proud State, and will not stand for
rottenness if she knows it,
Senator, Gov. Blease says in his
statement that there are no differ
ences between you and him. Is that
true?" was asked by the newspaper
man.
There are NO friendly, personal
differences between us. suppose
that's what you meant"
The senator said that he does not
know who is responsible for the can
didacy of Judge Jones, but that he
had no idea but what Judge Jones
told the truth when Judge Jones said
that he had been urged by letters
and men all over the State to run,
and that he had laudable ambition
to be governor and ''in line of pro-
motion" for the senatorial toga, III
anything should happen to me-"
Jones Has Got to Fight.
Don't you think the attitude OF
the governor towards him as chief
Justice, and the clashes with him the
governor has participated in had
something to do with his announce
ment?" was asked.
"Why, if a. man has any spirit
and pugnacity in him at all, I should
think he would want to get at the
other fellow, under such circum-
stances meet him on his own plane
and fight him. Don't you?
know I would.
"And that's just what Jones has
got to do if he expects to win
fight him. He has got to take the
stump and fight. If he does that
and makes his fight on Blease's rec
ord, he will win
The following day appeared in the
Chronicle correction by Senator
Tillman and a note by Mr.. McWhor-
ter as follows:
Trenton, S. c., Oct. 26, 1911.
Editor of the Chronicle: In to-
days Chronicle your correspondent
Mr.. McWhorter, has fallen into a Sc
rious mistake or omission. He makea
me say "if he (Jones) does that and
makes his fight on Bleases record
he will win" I went on to say and
I now repeat that as the record now
stands under the indictment as drawn
by the newspapers, I do not believe
that Jones or any one else can de-
| feat him. Something new and dis
graceful must be brought out which
will shock the people and arouse
State pride.
Very truly yours,
B. r. T1LLMAN.
