I I I LKDOoR. | 1 h *<?vv 8 < airier, ? ?(?. x I) vl N A(i* K. ( I BATrRDAT, MARCH 1, 190J. Senator Tillman adds insult to insult to the good people of Sorith Carolina. Many aero indignant at ois d?tdurations in the senate iu?t Saturday that holding the office ?t Governor of South Carolina fot four >ears iu a measure unfitted him to fill the office of United Statu* senator. Rut, bow will the\ feel on learning that be accepted au invitation to dine with President Roosevelt, at whose tattle, onl\ a few months ago,Booker Washington, a negro, dined by invitation, which incident was considered at the time by Mr. Tillman along with many ef the people of his State as 4,ao insult to the white people of the South." Mol only did he accept the invita tioB but actually (let-lined to withdraw bis acceptance after being requested by the party who extended it. lri the one instance he was willing to cast any blar upon the pes pie of bis State to have himself excused for undignified conduct ; in the other te ig^ core, not only his own, but the principles of his people as to the color line, for the sake of dining with the Prince. If thin is not heaping insults upon the people of the State he represents and bringing them into disrepute in the nation, then pray, what is it? But the O.ar of South Carolina cares not foi the geod name of his people or the princles he professes if he can get notoriety for himself ?or po<?o as a Boarbca in the presence of a Prince. The peisistent refusal of Senator Tillaiaa to withdraw hie ac? ceptanco of the invitation to dino at the While House is very incen ni6tent with the idea expressed by his neuhew. Lieutenant (invm-nnr Jin Tillman, viz: "1 ratbar sua. pect Senator Tillman would bare enjeyed mora the usual informal meal with his family thaa cater* ing to royaltv at festive beaid where Bookar Washington was a guest." la the light of Saaatar Tillman's statement that his ssrvice aa govarnar had unfitted him for service in the United States senate, imagine how Governor IfcSweeney would he received were be tecomo before the people this sunstner with the declaratien: "Felleweitinens: 1 an a candidate fer the United tttate senate, and theugh 1 have been geverner of Sonth Carolina for two siccassive terms, J believe that in the course of time 1 eould net with a dignity |becem? ing the exalted office 1 ash for."Winnsbore News and Herald. The lieutenant governor yesterday again illustrated the Tillman faculty of breaking out in new spots and in an unexpected way. He seems as tberonghly inoculated with the craving for* noteriety as his uaele, the senator. If be thinks, however, auch fiascos as his attempt to insult the president will help him to be elected gov. erner of Senth Carolina, he is badly mistaken. Courtney it net n lest art or without appreciation < in South Carolina. The president will net be hurt bj Colonel Jim's exhibition of spleen, but tbtt ex hihitioa will not increase the re- i epeet in which South Carolina is 1 held abroad and caanet benefit this state.?Columbia Kecerd. hcrater Frye, ' president pro Tew ef the sonata, "has 'restored t he names of Senatere VeLaurio ud Tillman te the senate roll. 1 Sewt Censors To The Senators * > * <f I n | What Tha Suh CoaonttM Hon Agraad Oa.?Stiapsneian Woe Abaadoaad.

I write to commend and endorse year editorial on 4'Seine Lib-; erties We Have Lost. You con-j clusively show the arguments yeu answer to be mere sophistry. Law dees not annul one's liberty, j Violation offlaw does that. There is no liberty except in full obedience to law. Should the legiblators who voted agaiest the "child labor bill" see two infant celts being driven to draw a heavy.load for ten hours a day through your streets, they j would hasten te the legislative halls and by enactment take away from tboiewner of the celts the liberty to thus make money by their service. Is an infant colt better than an infant child f Shall protection against cruelty to celts be granted^and to ehildren de- ' niedf When a strong man's service , does not bring income sufficient to feed and clotheabis family, there is something radically wrong in the wcale of wage*. The problem it cruel) y solved when infant 1 children are made to complement the father's meagre supply. But , is ehiid labor a necessity ? Is there not more a desire for the j Surplus than fer the necessity that enforces the labor of children V 1 Material ism has wide sway and is making universal demand.
