TILLMAN'S TIRADE.
Regales the People of Sumter
With Brag and Bluster.
Very 1'roud of Sending Al ined to
M order ('itizens ? Outlines
Senatorial Campaign?
Not a Peace nndlTnu
ty Man.
Special to News and Courier.
Sumter, Aug 4?Tlio pie-nie at
which Senator Tillman spoke today
began as a pear* and unity
love feast, but at the end there
was lots of ginger, and the senator,
who had declared in his morning
speech that the people were
getting along pretty well, and he
would say nothing to raise old issues
or revive old animosities,and
protested against the heavy coats
of "butter" that had been laid on
him by l>r 11 T Abbott, the reform
senator from this county in 1890,
in his introductory speech, boldly
asserted in the afternoon, in roply
to a speech of Representative
E D Smith, that he was no goodygood
peace and unity man, and
that there had already been too
much of that sort of thing.
In the afternoon Congressman
Stokes made a'jspeech and then
Representative E I) Smith was
called to tho stand. lie proceeded
to rub olF the "butter" by going
for the dis|>ensary and the
management of Winthrop and
Clemson colleges.
Senator Tillman replied in a
speech.nearly an hour long that
had all of the earmarks of an 1890
campaign meeting. He repudiated
the demand that he discharged
his duties in Washington and run
State affairs also. Ho said ho
would be a candidate for re elec
tion and would take a hand in the
nexi campaign, stumping every
county in the State for the dis^
pensary if necessary. He would
lick the opponents of the system
out of their hoots or go down with
its ruins. He asserted that the
dispensary was not intended to ho
a moral institution, hut a place
where people who wanted to drink
could get all they wanted of a good
<1 .-ality and the State receive the
profits.
It was forced on him, anyway.
Ho found the devil loose when he
went into oll.ee and he did not attempt
to chain him. The State
had to choose between prohibition
and the dispensary, and as the
prohibitionists were a set of hypoct
its and cowards, the choice fell
on the dispensary. He also went
hack to the first time the dispensary
constables made a raid in
Sumter. He said he selected honest,
sober, christian men as constables,
and when lie sent tlieni to
Sumter to raid Moms*' blind tiger
they were mobbed and rotten
egged. When he saw that he had
to light the devil with fire, he up
pointed as constables men who
were honest and had sand in their
craws to stand up and fight.
Among many other things he
said that he was no peace and unity
man and the lines were still
here and would lie drawn. The
men who had formed the old rings
and rode into ofiice over tho peo
pie's hacks were still trying to
ride into office and would do it if
not watched. H. (J. ().
Charles Yager, of Brandt, 1'a-,
aged 40 years, killed his three
little children Friday morning,
cutting their throats. IIo then
cut his own throat and died in a
few minutes.

in the skin to become more

and glossy, precisely as
nature intended.

Ayer's Hair Vigor will
surely make hair grow on
bald heads, provided only
there is any life remaining
in the hair bulbs.
It restores coloi to gray
or white hair. It does not
do this in a moment, as
will a hair dye; but in a
short time the gray color
of age gradually disappears
and the darker cofor
of youth takes its place.
