TILLMAN'S STATEMENT. Senator Tillman revised his letter to Governor Ellerber and gave it to the press ic the form o' a statement. It t urjs out that Governor Ellerbe declined to publish ll as coming through him because the Governor thought it contained sou.e reflections on his administration .i id he did not desire to appear as endorsing so mo strictures on some me.i aaa things. "I have modi Ced the 'alienage which he considered to reflect on him, and give the letter to the public in the form ol a statement," says the Senator. The "statement" is milder and in a more conservative tone than most of the Senator's public "statemen.s." "The dispensary scandals and the recent decision ii> regard to the Agricultural Hall have prompted Senator Tillman :o mak? this statement to the public. lie approves of the Governor's action in prjssing the dispensary investigation s. a joins iu me tuuurnent: "Let no guilty man cscape." The Senator upo-; the heals of this approval. ancl although he had no such investigation vhiift he was Governor ma.:es this coi.ession: "There has boon m:re or le.v? looseness in regard (o samples from ihe very start, and it is probable flat contraband liquors and samples became mixed in' the minds of men connected with the dis 1??, V,nc. pensary, so umu uue icgai u uu ?aw uo.-? nol been had in the disposal of contraband seizures." Why should samples have been mixed "in the minds' with contraband seizures? The law is plui.i as to whnt should be done with ail liquors :-..-:zid, and the dispensary officials have no right to disposo of them otherwise. They are as much the property of the State as forfeited lands. >Vhaf would the people do if ofSciais to.' x laud that had been escheated or forfeited to the State? Then a^ain why should the dispensary have so much liquor in samples. The State chemist is required to analyze the liquor, and it is not necessary totcstzae quality of liquors by distributing it among chose about the dispensary to drink and pass on its quality. Once upon a time this would have been called an evidence of "taming. so to speak." Senator Tillman took some of the* samples to his own honsp orul n;nd them, and has "no apology to make for ;t." Senator Tiilmau has been waiting to see the Piedmont Headlight, "so as to have Gantt's speciiic charges covering the administration of the law under 'Ben Ti'linaa ana Trailer', and like others, I have been astonished at the eliron'.ery which gives out so much smoke and so Iff tie fire." In this astonishment, many are with the Senator. Larry will have to do better. The Senator closes the statement about the dispensary by asking that a committee of citizens be'appointed to investigate the concern while he was in caargu. Senator j-aele died at bis home in Greenville on Thursday of Bright's disease, while surrounded by the members cj: his family. He was conscious to the lasr, and his bidding farewell to those dearest to him-is said to have been a very touching sc^ne. Senator Earle was born in Greenville, April 1894, educated at FnricanUniversi4;v and admitted to the lar in 1S70, ' ginning the practice of his profession at Anderson. In 1S7S he went to Sarnter, and formed a copartnership wit1; II. 0. Purdy. lie served Samter County in both branches ci the State-Legislature, ana in isso was elected attcuey general of the Stat?, serving two terms. In 1S90 be was candidate for Governor against Senator Tillman. A few years abo he moved back to Greenville. In lS9i he va> cb-ctcct a circuit judge. lie made a -:coa judge. lie was reversed by ;he Supreme Court only cnce, ;ud lhat was on a technicality under t!-e ne;v Constitution. Last summer he opposed Governor Evans for ir? United States Senate, and was serving his State in the Senate when death ended his career. lie was a man of ven striking person li ap pcarnnce. cool and composed in debate, aad his f: lends expected a successful career iu the Senate. He was ambition-, ar.d it is peculiarly said thai death should have cat off his aspirations suddenly. The Greenwood Journal says that the reason Greenwood has succeeded is 'uccjit-e when Greenwood people start out-'0 accomplish anything they do no: st?p until it Is done. Tiis power of Heed can now be appreciated whe:i it is known that the Cuban resolution passed by the Senate cannot e^uie up in : V House unless the Speaker-starts it. Senatou Earls":? ;u -cjssor wii] be appointee! by Got*, nor Elicrbc. We are in'u rested in 110 candidate. "We have already mentioned v.'hati au autocrat Speaker ILeed i=, and hove 1 the rale? of the House i.-f iir-presenta- { lives conduce to add to Lis -power, lie can rule the proceedings or* that body with the hand of a tyrant, and Reed does not hesitate to do it. ile recognizes members rising1 t-j address the chair when it siu's his pleasure. When he does not deshe to hear them, he simply refuses to rccogniz; them. The committee on rules are creatines of the Speaker, and Uey arrange the J j order of the proceedings of the House under the direction of the Speaker. The present occupautof the Speaker's chair pays no attention to the rules J when they do not suit lurn For instance one of the. rules provides: j ''Unless otherwise specially ordered by the House, the Speaker shall appoint at the commencement of each Congress the following standing coml mittees/-' &c. In the face of this plain rule, mandatory as it is, amounting to a command t"> the Speaker from the whole House, Speaker Reed persistently and obstiuately refuse-; to appoint these committees. It wa? the clear duty of the [Speaker at "the com| mencement of Congress" to make j j these appointments, and a failure to do so is a usurpation of pjwer con I traw to the Constitution. Was there 1 ' | ever an msiince wnero a umu nas ! more obviouslv guiltv of a violation of j - ^ a law? What is the ass of the American people electing representatives and sending them to Washington to ittend to the public business, if after the representatives get there they all ai e under the dominion of one tnati, who undertakes to run the whole legislative | machinery hicisclf, ai.d thi lepresentatives become hc!t>!es.=, unless the ! Speaker wj] kindly consent. The ! policy of Speaker Heed is in deroga tion oi tne lunuamen'ui ugms ui u,c Americau people. The election and seating of a representative of the people in Co-gress carries with it the right of that representative to be he*rd in b- half of hi? constituents. Each representative is sovereign in the exercise of his constitutional right to represent his constituency. Speaker Eeed, however, has made a discrimination. Himself believing in the very anomolous theory that a high tax on those lea=t able (o bear it will bring them prosperity, he * J ? ? 1 *v% rv* " f f AA I 11S3 sppoiutcu Uiuy VUC wujmiitsv; lbs ways and means. As Mr. Lewis, | a Congressman from Washington, said I in his speech on this subject, delivered | a few weeks ago: <fCan anyone point J out trie wisdom or justice in appoint! ing one set of committees and refusing | to appoint others? lias any gentlei mar. or set of gentlemen the right to ; decide lor all of the oilier gentlemen on this floor that in one mea.-ure; and one alone, rests the panacea for the people of thu commonwealth, and of itself bequeaths to a people and their posterity all of the blessings either to which they are entitled or which they demand?" Why should any committees be appointed ? It the Speaker directs everything, in defiance of the law of the Reuse why nave any rules a: aur jli the members of the House are se^t there (o vote merely, then oniv when the Speaker chooses to allow them to vote, why elect aiy representatives at all? If Heed in fact rules the House, why not proclaim him Dictator, and be done with it? Mr. Lewis' remarks are again pertinsut. "The attitude is too inconsistent to be s^ved with any harmony, and will bi nuioh misunderstood, or be understood too well by those who may not be so scientifically learned ih the ways of parliamentary procedere and the tactics of political captains, but whose hearts are bent upon their needs, and whose eyes sec the wrongs that are bei: g done them, and whose ears hear the refusal to heed them." Yes, the people will understand too well next fall, and they will see to it that their rights are respected. The enthroned tyrant will be dethroned. - -3> Cji Senator Morgan's Cuban resolution has passed the Senate by a big vote in its favor, only fourteen Senators voting against thera, twelve of whom are Republicans and two Democrats. The revelations made a few days ago about the information which has been concealed in the State Department did fV.<% TTTrtft- Tf cnome fhic infnrmQ. H Vi XV xu Ja vui \ k*?v? tion that (ho newspaper dispatches about the cruolty of the Spaniards was all true, and the outrages of Weyler were not the least exaggerated. The most serious matter which has come to light is that the administration before confidiDg in the Senators who visited the State Department required a promise that the names of persons furnish' * - ?^- ?i. lig ins miormauon woiuu uui ue unclosed, on the ground that the Spaniards would assassinate the informant or the consuls of the United States. It is surely a humiliating >prctacle when a government as strong as this cannot protect its 3geuts iu the discharge of their duty. General Lee and others were in Cuba on the business of the Government. They bad a right to give tliD Government iufurinaiion. That is what they were sent ih re fur. Such apprehension on the part of the administrate is the most serious aspect of the Cuban qaostion as far as this country is concerncJ. "When a consul is threatened with assassination, it is time for the Government to take a i }\^\M ic lirr.rt fhit nonnl^ were knowing whether or not their Government is adequate to afford as much protection as any o:ber government in the world. If it is not, then they mast make it so. President McIvinley had better cLange his policy, if the disclosures made in the Senate are trniv As for the House the resolutions will be delayed and delayed under the autocrat Reed. lie is complete master of that body, and nothing can be done i without his approval as we have pointed out several times lately. It is understood thrt he is opposed to the Morgan resolut.on, and of course be i will not a'low it to be considered by the House of Represent a:ives unless he sees clearly that it will be defeated. The ordinance regulating the riding' of bicycles in the incorporated limits is reasonable enough. Bicyclists should accept the provisions of the ordinance in the right spirit aod seel-* ?t.v to obey it as tar as possiuiu . Ill lUiO way *hey caa make themselves popular with the general public. It must not be forgotten, however, that the riders of bicycler have some rights. Their wheels are taxed, and it is due them tba: they are given suitable roads to ride on. The bicycle is rapidly becoming a mode of conveyance, and not simply a toy for amusement. The J--. _:u -rchpn thfi DubliC Utiy vyi;t :uuu tiuvu t will recognize that ir is as much a public duty to provide roads for the bicycle as it is to have roads for buggies and wagons. "When the State has made this progress, then belter roads will be forthcoming,. A dangerous place in a road whereby a horse is injured and a buggy or wagon is .broken renders the Coanty liable to an action j for damages. Is it UDreasonabte for the same law to apply to a bicycle? er. nr,w hp on nse uthe I 11 lii&J' Ott.i-i.Jl UV .-.V.. wheel" is not in as general use as the buggy or wagon, bnt the day will come when it will be considered the same in principle. We hope that the farmers will keep the institute constantly in mind, and not forget it. A large number of them should attend. They will find it instructive. Bring your sick animals along, and have them treated. You are sure to learn something that you never knew before. ? TT*"? The Greenwood journal's suuvemr edition is one of the best that has been published by a county paper. It is a splendid advertisement of Greenwood and the surrounding country. mosst dale items, The cool nights are having telling effects upon both corn and cotton. Corn is remarkably small for its age, even where well manured and cultivated. Cotton has a very unhealthy appearance at,d is doing only tolerably well. Farmers are working it as fast as {hev can, hoping to prevent its d\ing by letting the sun to the roots. Too dry for small grain crops. Gardens doing no good. I am glad to repeat that Mrs. B. F. Lyles is improving somewhat. I hope she may soou regain her strength again. lam sorry to report tbe death of Mrs. Iretta Price, sister of Mr. J. W. Robinson. She came from Columbia a short time ago quite sick, hoping that the change would be beneficial to her, but she passed through various in hAr disease until all human help was unable to combat it. She died Saturday morning about 7 o'clock and was buried at Bethel Cemetary Sunday morning at 11 o'clock. Children's diy was observed at Bethel Church on last Saturday and Sunday. The diy was spent very pleasantly by a large concourse ot people who bad assembled to enjoy the occasion. The different parts in ihe program were well rendered by those who were assigned to them. Tlw dinner was fine and very profuse, and much credit is entitled to Messrs. J. L. Maun, L. D. Tinkler aua T. C. Smith for their excellent hash. Mr. Halfacre and sister and Miss Kinard, of Newberry, paid our community a visit on the occasion. I am sorry to say that Miss Grace Kinard was taken sick and could not enjoy the visit as we would have liked her to do, but am glad that she so much recovered by Monday that she felt able to return home. We hope they arrived safely. Mr. J. L. Cautheu and daughter, Miss trussie, Air. vv. x. .aicivinstry, Miss Eva McKiostry and Miss Mary Chappell went to Monticello Saturday to attend children's day. They had a pleasant trip. I am sorry to hear of the death of onr Senator Joseph H. Earle. From recent reporis we were in hopes that be would scon be able to return to his post of duty. His death has cast a pale over not only our community but the whole State. We are all in hearty sympathy with his bereaved family. I hope that Gov. Ellerbe will use his best jodgment in appointing his successor, which I believe he will. Let bim leave all chronic officeseekers off and go out into the highways and hedges and appoint a man that will be able to discharge the duties of a senator and be indepen (lam; or an paruzm ums men hu mu receive the plaudirs of the whole Stafe.

We Hatter ourselves that our feilow neighbors would like to hear a few echoes from New Hope. The farmers are still busy and so far the crops arc good. Since the rain j last week the weather iias been unusually cool. Oar communion was held on Sanday the 16th inst. During the meeting Rev. G. R. "White, of North Carolina, gave us some fine sermons. On the preceding Friday our pastor, Rev. Johnson, was installed. Rev. Mr. Moffatt, oi! Chester, preached the installation sermon, Rev. Mr. \\ lute addressed the pastor, and Ruv. Mr. McDonald the people. The sei vices were interesting. Rev. Mr. Johnson is a fine gentleman an! we think New Hope should be congratulated in get j ting SUCH an escsucm uuu.iai.ci. The young people intended having a lawn party at Mrg, Simonton's one evening not long since, but the rain prevented. I hear that several couples were very much disappointed. A. select party of eight gave a picnic at the famous "Duck Pond" one day last week. Rambles in parties of two and two upon the banks of the pond and creek were the order of the day. They reported a gay time, I believe. May 20, 1897. x. y. z. j GREENBRIER AiTAIRS. j The farmers here are nearly through chopping cotton; will have good stands. Some have finished throwing the dirt back. Corn is backward with poor stands; so much replanting until nearly all that I have seen looks ragged. Mr. M.' W.
