Nv Dear Senator Tillman:
This acknowledges the receipt o.
Your letter of May Sth.
In reply, thereto. please ACCEPT my
assurance that it is the fixed policy of
the administration, from which it does
not vary, to refrain from interference
in State political affairs.
At no time has the administration
in South Carolina or any other State
urged or invited any person to be-
come candidate for the United States
senate.
I sincerely hope that the contest for
the nomination for senator in your
State will be so conducted as not to
INTERFERE in the slightest with the very
cordial friendship which has hereto
fore existed between you and Repre-
sentative Lever.
Sincerely yours,
A. S. Burleson.

Dear Sir:

Dear Sir:
Your letter, dated the I'D Of NJ
and postmarked the 9th has been re-
ceived, and I an replying thereto
promptly.
In the first place, l nsent your I'M
putation as to my patl .em and mo-
tives. but my respect for your years
impels me not to notice further this
part of your letter. This is a time
however, if I may remark it, which
demands self-abnegation and the sub
ordination of selfish Or ambitious aims
l shall answer your inquiry with
entire frankness, as have nothing to
Hconceal, though l do not admit your
right to question me on this matter
You have been quoted by saying that
your health was such as to precluda
the possibility of your making coun-
ty-to-county campaign in your race
for the senate, and from what I have
seen of you I believe that this is true.
With Blease an announced candidate
for the United States senate. my opill-
ion was, and IS. that it is imperative
for him to be met in debate at every
meeting, so as to keep the true anu
vital issue of the war, and loyalty to
cur country and government, before
the people: that. as you could not
make the campaign and meet Blease
in debate and keep the true issue fully
and forcibly before the public, some
one must be in the race to do this:
that we in South Carolina could noi
take a chance on the issue; that i
was a State and national duty to see
to it that South Carolina was repre-
sented in the United States senate by
one who was, and is, loyal to the
United States, and a strong supporter
of President Wilson and his admins
tration. Blease does not fill these
requirements
The announcement of your candi-
dacy in your present state of health
has caused deep concern to many
earnest men in this State, since it IS
plain to all how dangerous our posi-
ton would be if your physical
strength is insufficient. I was one of
a large number who wrote Mr.. Lever
to enter the race. My reasons for
this action are stated above, but |
am not responsible for his announce
ment, since I am informed that he
sought advice of men in every quarter
of the State before making his decis-
ion.
I believe that you have been loyal
to the president, and sound on the war
issue, but I know that the national
peril is such that we must have men
who are not only loyal, but 'len who
are active in the senate as we'll. 1t is
also imperative to put before the peo-
pie the exceeding danger to our ma
ton, and your plan of conducting a
front porch or newspaper campaign
will fall far short of meeting the stu
alton. Our people are most influenced
by thespoken word, and that you have
long emphasized in your political ca
reer. know that it is most important
to inform our people face to face
about the war, in order that they may
know the whole truth.
Mr.. Lever is man Of responsible
ity and judgment, and he would doubt
less resent the suggestion that he is
