THE LEDfoj&fL. rbarlow < BDITOR AND MANAUKR. SATURDAY AKil sT 2-'?, 1002. The SpartanburgJournal stales that 4tBen Filltnan does not want Jim Tillman elected governor. The senator has more state pride than to wish such a thing. Jim Tillman was never a Reformer, anyhow, lie was a Conservative in the Sheppard and Orr campaign, when Ben Tillman helped Talbert heat Jim's father for con gress. There is a great deal of unierence ooiween a lieu nilmanite ami a Jim Tillmanite. The State board of education ia out in a strong letter in defense of Mr. McMuhan in the text book adoption matter. It cites that the board was appointed by the governor without regard to Mr. McMahan's preference: that each liook was adopted by a majority of the members present, that Mr. McMahan has dono his whole duty in enforcing the adoption, that no otlu radoptions can be made till 190fi, and thai it is due to Mr. McMahan's efforts that South Carolina schools now get their books at the lowest prices. This letter of the State board ought to satisfy every thinking person that Mr. McMahan was in no wise responsible for the adoption being made, and that since the adoption had to be made that he spared no pains to seen: e the lowest price on all books adopted.

Colonel Talbert, candidate for governor, having charged Chairman Jones of violating the rules of the Democratic party in allowing individual candidates to re ceive tickets for distribution, the 1 latter sent the following message D C to the former today: 1 "Columbia, S.

The State Campaigners ; Their F.ngngeiuent With u ] liig Night Meeting at Columbia. J Special to The Daily Mews Columbia, S. C., Aug. ill.? 1 The State campaign closed here today. Nothing sensational yet. Walker strongly initnated that there was a deal between Derhain and .tones and that Derham was to be .1 ones' chief clerk if elected. Jones said ho was glad Derhain supported him and was glad of the support of any one. There were no spats between any of the candidates. Ansel was the first speaker tonight and ho made a decided impression and aroused great enthusiasm. He seomed delighted with his reception. There were fully 1,500 in the audience, including many ladies. The candidates presented J. E. Norincnt with a handsome loving cup in testimony of his fairness as campaign correspondent. Dr. Timmerii an gave some facts on the increasing state debt which is of a floating character. J as. Tillman was received with a great outbreak of appluuse and suggested that thee was a time when a Tillurin would not have received an ovation. Many encouraging cries were given him. He rapped once or twice at The State, not severely at the outset. Farewell Performance of the Senatorial Section. Special to the Daily News. Winnsboro, S. C., Aug. 21.? The last meeting of the Senatorial campaign party was held here today. It was the scene of sermra - a tion and last long farewell of the "Big Six" who have fought, hied and died together save one on whom tho people will bestow the gift of Senatorial life for the next six yeafs. Hope burns brightly in the breast of each. "We have met the people and they are ours," is the universal cry. Tho meeting today was a mixturo of all that have preceded it and manfully did they light. Records, Philppines, business policies, lawyers, farmers, bomb proofs, firing lines, nut grass roots, pumpkin seeds, bulletins, appropriations, and tariff measures were so mixed that it reminded one of tho Irishman who one night slept with a "naygure," as he called him when he awoke next morning and found himself painted black he could not for the life of him tell which was himself and which was tho "naygure." Col. Elliott made his usual speech. When Latimer's turn came he, like the goat he loves to tell about, bowed himself up and showed fight. He jumped on the whole crowd of lawyers in general and made special targets of Evans and Johnstone. He is a plain, practical farmer and all tho lawyers have been jumping on him, be said. There was nothing espec lally new in his speech, but he .L 4 ?4 1 1 J> .... 4 U ? I "WlTHl 111 UUI iiaill, U.I IIJC U\9j n say. Evans followed, and was evidently 4Mn for business." He went to work on practical lines, saying that Latimer's speech reminded him of the plaintive, mournful song sung by the swan just before she dies. Latimer abuses the luwyers, but has put his son in a law school to prepare . him for life. Latimer said: <4Ho is not running for the Senate, ' gentlemen." Evan6replied: 44No, but he is going around to the meetings scratching liko the mischief for his daddy." Col. Johnstone was properly tuned up and came back at Mr. Latimer with tire and energy. Ho said Mr. Latimer had admitted - ? i-i- i 14-JIB hat he voted to donate three mi ion dollars to the Pennaylyan Railroad company. Mr. Italian umpcd up and denied it, wher ipon Col. Johnstone called flpc several men who had heard M Latimer's former s[>eech at [hey sustained him. Mr. Latinv saul that the bill provided for ? exchange of land which might 1 valued anywhere from one mill'u to ten million dollars. Mr. Henderson gave his felh; candidates a moral lecture f spoiling the last meeting of t campaign. Mr. Hemphill made the closii speech in which he covered abo the same ground us in his form speeches.
