On] old charges were rehashed whil s in no new testimony was offere< 'fel- hence the promised sensationt (id not develop. A good po: tion of Tillman's speech was d< >uld voted to a discussion of tw Sat changes in connection with til State campaign. One of theE de- suggested changes was a strictE com pledge for the candidates, i ~orn connection with which the sus in- gestion was made that McLauri ot- be e'xemptedt from the p ledge re quired of other can did ates. C course, such a suggestion is nc in- to be taken seriously, for th ich 'same pledge would have to b Lose 'required of all. Then, too, ther aail . is no use of making rules to ? Lere |McLaurin; he is too changeabi be- to fit any rule, and he surel; ies h:asn't the gall now to offer fo ent, re-election at ra Democratic pri ighI. mary. The other suggestion i tly that the candidates for the Stat, the otfices and the candidates for th senate go in tw sections in th State campaign. The effect c >b th,is woul be to give two cam op tpign1 meetings at each place fIr bis would be an advantage t< i a the e.undid8tes, but a disadvan h- - en to the pe ople, who can no 1l alt i so much of their time fo aten li g these meetings.
