Senator Tillman , made reference to the fact that ' he intended to retire from the j Senate at the end of his present , term. ' Senator Thomas, of Colorado, at this point saw fit to indulge in laughter. Immediately Senator I Tillman called his flippant colleague down in substantially this language: "I am not like you ' fellows in Colorado; when I say a thing I mean it." Senator | Thomas protested that he hadn't meant any harm, and that he 1 didn't mean to question his South" Carolina friend's statement. The bit of comedy amused the senate.
