Mr.. ABNEY IS NOT RUFFLED
Noted Lawyer Submits Courteous Re-
DIV to Senator TiIIman's Attack.

ply to Senator Tillman's Attack.
The Anderson Intelligencer of last
Friday prints Mr.. B. L. Abneys reply
to the recent attack that was made
upon him by Senator Tillman. The re-
ply is dated Columbia, January % and
Is addressed to Senator F. II. Weston,
Of Richland. 1t Is as follows:
Dear Sir: On my return from Edge
field I read the proceedings In the SEN
ate upon the subject Of Senator TILL
, mans letter. I am not at all concern
ed with the disposition, of the contro-
versy between him and Gov. Blease,
but I feel that I, in some way ought to
express my sense of indignation at the
deliberately unfounded statement made
by him with reference toward myself
and my conduct towards the members
Of the senate.
How Senator Tillman could make such
foolish statement am at loss to
understand. He has no warrant from
any information Of the facts that he
has, to indulge In any such charges. 1t
is purely q creature of his own imagt-
nation, engendered, doubtless, by per-
sonal venom towards some individuals.
Individually I care nothing for charges
so ill-conceived and unfounded as this,
and would pass them by unnoticed, but
my regard for the feelings OF senator's,
both Of former and Of the present leg
islature, and for their good opinion, re-
quires that should make some expires.
sion, in some appropriate way, so that
they may feel that participate In
their sense Of indignation against such
charges.
There Is not senator upon the floor
who can say that have ever approach
ed him in any way on the discussion or
pending measures other than at COM
mittee meetings and In attendance
thereon, by way Of presentation OF the
views of the interests affected by the
bills before the committees, and the
conditions that surround their opera
tions. There Is not single senator,
that can by the utmost stretch or MEM
ory, recall any instance In which / nave
attended the lobby, or interviewed SEN
ators upon pending questions while the
legislature was in session, and otner
than above stated. There is not sim
gle senator who does not feel the con-
seriousness of my never having at
tempted to influence his actions unduly
or by any other means than arguments
presented to the committees, orally or
in writing. I regret that q man 80
high placed as Senator Tillman, could
dream, much less charge, Of such con-
duct upon the part Of senators and
upon part Of one who was attempting
to fairly and justly and honorably rep.
resent the interest in his charge, and
who never had been in his way poliu-
cally, and who had never taken any
part in any controversy, political or
otherwise antagonistic to his personal
feelings or to his personal interest.
AS stated above, have no desire to
do anything more than to inform the
senators with whom ! have the honor
to be acquainted, that feel the same
Indignation as they do against such
charges, and would thank you, II you
could in some appropriate way, convey
this information to them.
Yours very truly,
Il. L. Abney
