LIVELY MEETING AT UNION.
The Moat Pugnacious Day of the
South Carolina Campaign.
Columbia. S. C ?The most cxcitina
meeting of the S^e^ampaign occurred
Thursday it? Eiiion. Jhtre came dan
gerously near being a personal difficulty
;m the stand, between Govercor
| Tillman and Col. Orr. the Conservative
candidate for Lieutenant Governor, which
would have resulted in a riot.
Ia his speech. Governor Tillman asked
Colonel Orr for h ? authority for saying
that a preacher had said that he (Tillman)
flaunted his profanity * in public. Col.
Orr replied tnat be did not divulge con
versations and added that Tillman knew
? he statement was true as he could ascer
tain by appealing to the preachers in gen
eral !
The Governor said that sometimes an
oath slipped out, but that it had done so
only on one occasion during the cam
paign. He appealed to the ladies pres
ent to signify if in their opinion they
considered hire a blackguard, but
there was no response from. them.
The Governor then said that Orr or any
other mm who said he flaunted his pro
fanity in public lied.
CoL Orr advanced to the Governor and
atching him by the arm wheeled him
amund and asked him if he waa trying
to raise a personal difficulty . Tillman
said he was not and Orr shook his finger
in his face and told him that he could
not iatimat; that he (Orr) lied without
having it thrown in his (Tillman's) teeth.
He. told him further that Tillman had
boasted of being ''Almighty God gentle
man."
The Governor said so he had, and Orr
replied that He did not do himself cred
- rt when He made you. He again caught
hold of the Governor and asked him if
he meant to intimate that he was a liar.
The Governor said that if Orr did not
originate the statement did not apply to
him.
By this time the crowd had become a
raging mob. People climbed up on the
stand. Men pulled off their coats, -swore
like troopers and gathered around the
two men. It lookecf for all the wor|d as
if blood was to be *hed. Col. Orr stood
to the rack and told Tillman he had re
peatedly used curse words on the stand.
The Governor said he had not done it
but once, and he would leave it to ex
Governor Sheppard who, however, bad
nothing to say. The excitement try this
time was intense. &Col. Orr again catfght
hold of Tillman, who' bad turned nis
head toward the crowd ib front, and told
him if he wanted a -fight b4 could get it.
The Governor said be-3id not and CoL
Orr west back to his seat, remarking that
Tillman must let him ^sjose. The Gov
ernor turned to the cuowd ai d said no
living man could bulldoze him. Af.er a
good deal of difficulty the crowd was
quieted.

ever, only the exigencies of: the haying
season bring to the front among Conner
ticut toilers. There is Ephraim Newell
of Ellington, in lofty Telli^ county
for instance, who' became 85 years old
one day Mocently, and celebrated i the
event by taking down the[ old Newel
cradle and eradilng just one acre ot Stout
rye in the ,; forenoon of the day. jS itf
one of his neighbors, speaking of the old
roan's/vigor : "Why, he not only cut the
cleanest clip of all the men who worked
with him i* that field, but he cratfli d
right around men who are not more th^u
one-half bis age. It was a < boiling
hot day, too."
ftl| a fact that the best rye cradler in
Xew London county is a man over 8t)
, -Tears old, and he is as straight as <* n uv
row, 6 fcetf 2 inches tall, and with the
full, plump muscles of a man of 40.; In
the same ifcounty is Francis Browp, of
Norwichf who is 80 years old, and who a
week a?fo erad led an acre <>f rye on his
farm near that city. Oilbeit Chandltr,
?f Putnam, Windham county, recently
celebrated the eightieth anniversary of
his birthday, and the day before that* in
cident he shingled one roof of his hou:e i
alpng. ? Then there is De?coa Benjamin I
Brown, of Brooklyn WHagg, in Jlt/suss?
county, who^^^^S?T^boi3think. is
ratuat too ftfYsky ; he is 85 years old, and
nis friends say he is a regular boy yet .
He takes chances that would appall pome
oi the modern dudes of 18 or 20. So he
got ron away with the other day, driving
in bis usual reckless style, and got 1 'hove
-3TSt," the Brooklyn folks put it. He fell
on a heap of stone3. and was bruised
about his side and shoulders Most men
would have been done up by the acci
dent, but the Deacon was at work about
hia farm a day or two later.
But old Mrr~ Lyman Tolles, of ToDes
Station, Terjyville, is perhaps-ffcfe niftiest
old boy in the State. He is over 90
years old,, and was hayin' it everyday
this week in the hot open fields ?f his
farm, where the temperature over-tapped
the number of his years by mor&^fian 1(1
degrees. He is strong and tou A as sole
leather, and steps about as brisVy 8$ &
boy- At Plainville is Michael Cyjlleo,^
wfco rifles a bicycle like the wind, Hut he
is young, of course, being only 71. \ Ho
goes to-and from his business daily on
his wheel, and.orfHnary riders are not
anxious to tackl?"nim for a rtinning bout.
In the same town is Mrs. William New
ton, who rides a horse daiiy, and her
hardihood and ambition are worth not
ing, because she is 78. At the village of
South Killingly is Mr. Scbtiy ler, 83, who
has go* the measles, and th?: joke of it is
he has all there are io Connecticut.
Therefore he would like to know how he
got them. He's got 'em mild, however.

judgment thci bast substitute it wbtt
the people ol Kansas favored fourteen

LobauMttty nailed greenbacks; for ss too
know, national beak notes are redeem
able In Unitod States notes. I think it

Lout to the people fullfiedged,
| ready fer drt;y, weight or
impediment or coodiMBBf any sort,
wlat ver. What, we ulffl^oney should
be absolutely free fr^ro alP^onditions, en
tkat there could ie no f'runs" on banks
in tine of stringsncy, and no panics bo*
csase debtors are iunable . to obtain legej*
tender money. It believe thatT/ tbtf time
has come to nationalize our ittonejl. We
took one- long stejp in that direction when
we adopted our national banking sys
tem. We tixed State bank notes out of
existence, swbstitu'^d a nation t' cmrency
for a purely Jo aUcurrency ; and it was
only a short time alter embarking in this
new enterptise until wfdiscoYered that
the bankers of the country M ere masters
of the financial situation. We find that
instead of serving the people they seared
themselves. In 1883 there were $358,
01?, 000 of bank botes circulation Since
- that time about : $340,0 6,000 of H has
been retired, not bee iuse the people did
apt need the money, but because the
banks realized a profit from the sale of
their bond ?;t premium, the botds that
they had deposited as security for circu
lation. Our experience and that of pther
nations Vm been that banking corpora
tions are private schemes for nrOdt to indi
vidual persons, *nd oaf observation has.
taught us that there is only one saf# way
to avoid the* dangers to which that sort
of financial management subject us; tint
4a for the nation itself to prepare iu own
money, evety dollar of it, issu * it to the
people directly though government
agencies, wholly without the u?e a*d in
tervention of banking corporations or
other private agencies.
You understand from the foreg in?
that 1 would not only substitute United
States notes, or .treasury notes, if you
choose, for national bank notes ss they
are being retired, but I would substitute
that sort of mmev fora'l bank issues;
and I would do even more than that; I
woul i not make money out of a promise
to pay; that is to say 'I would not w ite
out a promise to pay money and call
promise money; but I
of Daner iust -^JMtffellMP^PVjrTpiece
_ fece of silver, and make
that money, providing in the lsw what
it* functions shall oe. That puts the
influence, the credit, and the power of
all the people behind the money. * Then
we will have gold and silver and paper
at par, one with the other; and that, if
we will reduce rates of interest down to
the level of profit on labor, so that men
can make as much money farming or
blacksmithiog or carpentering as they
can by lending money, will give us a
safe currency, a sound financial system,
and no more money panics.
