Yorkville, July 28.?The State nmpaign meeting was hehi here ; oday. The speaking took place t the haae hall park. Not less han twelve hundred people were resent. They came from all secions of the county. The candidates for railroad comnissioner opened the hall and were ollowed by the candidates tor ;overnor, eacn or wnoni was given patient bearing. It was quite vident that a majority of the rowd favored Iloyt, and it is generally conceded that he left inch stronger than became. He inpressed his audience with the act that should prohibition pre~ ail under no circumstances would ie countenance any plan by which Iruggista would bo allowed to ell whiskey, and he also guaran-. eed that if he was elected govern^ ?r and the legislature did not pant* , prohinition law, he would enorce the disjpensary law better han it had ever been enforced or rould be by any other candidate. Senator Tillman wound up the ntertainment with what was gen-, rally conceded to be one of the poorest speeches of^ the day. It vas devoid of logic and tilled with ontrfidictions. It waa a disappointment to his friends and rested very little enthusiasm. A urge proportion of the caowd lis ened with stolid indifference. If all the counties do Iloyt as fork promises to he will he ilected by a safe majority on Vugust 28. McSweoney made a most favorhie impression and will no doubt ome in second in this county. | Summer colds g S are noted for hanging on.

The interference arose | hecim.se ho was ch&rged with de- j fcating prohibition and forcing the dispensary. Uev FC llickson naked a aeries of ipieationa and in reply Tillman said he persuaded Mr Nettles to modify the bill after the bill pass ed the senate. lie and Solicitor Johnson made certain changes and put in new sections. Ho made a few changes and had, by his per.-, suasion, the senate pass the bill and accepted by the house, fie did this because it looked to the closing of every barroom, which the prohibitionists wanted. He had examined into the Athens, Ga. situation and it was accent* able. After the saloons were destroyed he worked to improve it. 1 No governor since he has been in ( office gave one-tenth the time be 1 did to enforcing the dispensary. He followed every constable's ' movements. He did not deceive the prohibitionists. He came to ] L Ab n Vote Against Hoyt. 1^ Was Practically the liurden of !! Senator Tillman's Gaffney Speech. Special to The State. Gatfney, July 30.?The moot- i ing here today was well attended. The crowd was patient and un- , demonstrative until Tillman Bred his big gun. It was a divided ( gathering. Patterson and Gary are drifting towards showing personal fueling, and Hrooker and Derhatn are still on the edge of , I personalties. Senator Tillman was the last speaker and was received withapplause. This was his tenth meet- | ing and ho was tired filing through 1 alive hours' service. This was | his third visit here, anil ho was J glad of tho warm welcome. Then | he took up why ho was in the campaign and gave his usual explanation as to his presence and why he spoke on the dispensary, lie came to show that he had not I changed. He would ho damned j for doing his duty rather than he damned for not. He did not want to dictate and never would try, and his support canto because he 1 led the people the way they want- j1 HER GO( GHTER ain To Y ried over. The is now. *1.00 un every pair.

It has been messed up n Columbia. The dispensary was 10 bastard. The prohibitionists were the father because without the agitation it would never have been here. OuumoD sense was the mother and now prohibition. This was tho soberest caowd he had ever seen but over in prohibition York he saw half a dozen rlrunken men. York by bad leadership or had judgment had liquor and let tho profits go to North Carolina. Cherokee county this yoar has already made #4,000 from its dispensary and York has iiado nothing and drunk its iquor. He warned the Gaffney lispensary men not to vote for Hoyt. Ho is a good man and a irave man but does not stand for he dispensary. Ho can get prolihition now if the people wunt it :>y counties. Hoyt stands for Hoyt. If you folks out of personal lopularity vote for people who ire not pledged to carry out the lispensary you will lose what you vant. If you get high license hey will not close at night or on lays like this and there will ul* rvays be a hole in the ground or vindow for the sale. There is lot a man here who can get a lrink because you have a good lisponser. Tillman again insisted hat he had Charleston and Co* umhia as dry as a powder horn. He again warned the voters against gagging or a time limit on the tpeakers. The newspaper reporters have n the main been fair but they lave not undertaken to describe he tempor of the audience. He laid nothing but to defend the lispensary, its enforcement, free. tpeech and no limit on the speeches. Tillman said he was not medMing in Hoyt's race, hut was defending himself. He then took up his spat with the paeachers and insisted on sverything he had said and reiter- ' ated that there was the "alliance," j willing or uawilling, between the barkeepers and ministers. He and j Rev F C llickson had a spat, Mr. Hickson asked whether Tillman DDS. PRICES. ou. : time to unload ho people for shoes as well as > SUFFICIENT, : icts.

Nobody in h'outh Carolina believes it ii ue, as Senator Tillman charged in his speech at BennettsVllln that f tlAPA n v lutu Uon unkrvl f alliance of preachers and bar * keepers, led by Col Hoyt" in the movement of prohibition. We believe that South Carolinians generally have too much respect for our preachers and the men who are supporting the Prohibition movement to believe any such thing as Senator Til I man charges. Senator Tillman cannot prove such a charge to be true in the least particular, and it is un^ fair and unjust that ho or anybody | should make a charge without any facts whatever to warrant it. Senator Tillman was once a prominent Alliunoeman. Is it "alliance" among all farmers who | happen to lie working for the i same end, the liettermont of their condition?
