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.

"Some Liberties We Have Lost.'' ,
To the Editor of The State.
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. Shall
enr State allow materialism to <
destroy a large element ef her <
helpless little oneet Yes; says a <
majority of the legislators.
