T'nited States Senator Till j man declared that he would leave it to the people of South Carolina to ! say whether they wished him to con' tinue in the senate or not. I j Speech follows: JVlr. President and Fellow Citizens: j 'First, allow me to thank you for the ;,reception von have given me. I haven't words sufficient to express in fitting terms the gratitude I feel for the -love Land trust the people of South Carolina have always shown after they came to know me. . I "found myself' at Bennettsvilie in 1885 and began to know for what purnose I had been sent into the world. Ever since I have had only one object in life the honor and welare of South Carolina and her people. At first, I was distrusted because cf my radicalism and frankness of speech: but the people soon learned that I was not a hyprocrite or a liar and that they could depend on what T told them. Had Decided to Quit I served as governor for four years. Then they sent me to the senate, and have kept me there ever since. "Four years ago I bade farewell to public life and said to the people of South Carolina I would not again j ask them to re-elect me. My health was poor and 'I sought to rest from my labors until my time came. But suddenly and unexpectedly me war with Germany was forced upon us; j Honor, patriotism and everything that men hold dear were put in jeopardy. I There was nothing for us to do hut J fight. 'Under these changed condi-! tions I was confronted with this? question. 'What is my duty?" 1 knew that I had the important chairmanship of the committee on naval affairs, and besides, had won the con Science and respect 01 many puwenm i and influential men connected with | the government. This prestige and influence 'belonged to the state more than to me. If I held to my announced purpose not to offer for reelection that chairmanship and all that went with it would be lost to <3?outh Carolina. After thinking it all j < over from all viewpoints and con- j suiting with many friends, contrary to the expressed wishes and advice of those I hold dearest, my wife and children, I reached the conclusion that the least T could do was to allow the people of South Carolina to decide for themselves. Consequently I offered for re-election. I thought it was my duty to do so for these reasons: South Carolina now occupies a very enviable position in our public affairs.

Other stories have j G 'been arid are still being industriously I f' j circulated. The most pitiless and j most pitiful one too. is that I am ^ physically unfit and mentally unfit and that my mind is practically gone. My friends in various parts of the state have written me repeatedly of a things of this sort that they had ! r heard. The only thing that is oI .v any moment now to you is whether ! it is true or false, and that is the j ? reason I am here, to look you in the f face and let you see for yourselves1 a my real condition, even if I were able j to make speeches on "the hustings,'' j * the conditions in Wahshington are jr such as will make it necessary for I the friends of President Wilson and ^ i the Democratic administration to re| main at their post of duty.

Since the war came on that j11 ' committee has had as much or more ' a work to do than the committte on i a appropriations. How T have perform- t ed those duties the world knows. * Money in Elections. 1 "South Carolinians have never been \ * accustomed to seeing their elections 1 v carried by money, and looking iback j 2 ; over an extended experience I do not! * remember that any money wa-s ever 1 used in a primary until 1904 in the " second congressional district Since that time, lam sorry to say, money i * has been used more and more lavishly : ( as the years have passed.

Naturally, I do not ^ j want to be defeated in my old age. i but I had rather go down in defeat, j | than enter upon the diabolical and, ( j criminal business of attempting to de- j1 i baunc-h my fellow citizens.
