THIS is THE MOVEMENT NOW ON
FOOT IN STATE OF SOUTH
CAROLINA.
PUT ANOTHER IN HIS SEAT
Senior South Carolina Senator Has
Aroused Resentment.-st is Thought
That Legislature May Offer opposi-
ton Candidate if Chance Appears.

Columbia movement having for
its object the defeat Of United States
Senator 3. r. Tillman is much talked
of. It may reach enough pro-
portions to take the shape OF dehn-
mite action, but just at present the
movement has not gotten that far.
Those behind it are feeling" their
way cautiously and will have every
thing mapped out before they launch
the fight which will have for its oD-
ject the retiring of Benjamin Ryan
Tillman to private hfe.
Angered by the charge OF Senator
Tillman that they are under control
of the railroads certain members OF
the General Assembly are planning to
show their resentment in such a way
as to be felt. This conclusion Is
drawn from talks heard and from intl-
mate knowledge of the conditions.
Those behind the movement must
have some one on whom to center
their strength in order to beat TIL
man. Some have suggested that fof-
mer United States Senator John l..
McLaurin, now representing Marlboro
county in the state Senate, would De
the man. He was driven out Of pub
lie life by Senator Tillman and Tor
several years has been in retirement
emerging to take the place in the
state Senate made vacant by the
death of Senator Green.
But Senator AcLaurin Is PERSONA
non grata to large part OF the Gener-
al Assembly on account of his poiltl-
cal record while in the United States
Senate, and therefore his candidacy
might lack sufficient strength.
Another suggestion is that Asso-
ciate Justice R. c. Watts be voted for
instead of Senator Tillman, this OF
course without Justice Watts knoWl-
edge, and it is known that these
plans have not been even whispered
to him.
