' ? <~? <?'** m THE TILLMAN CASE. Continued ifom page h %f^AAATlA^y*<g%A^IA<\ri A/UVi/u\A/*^/W\J kilUd Mia. Isabella Stuart, for change of venue, was read out in rull hv Gen. Bellinger. He brought out the faot, not read by Mr. Nelson, that at tho timet of the killing thevo was a groat uproar in Columbia', ueoplo had assembled on the street to lynch Crawford and it w as only by being protected by two military companies that his life was soared, lie contrasted this to the statu that existed when Mr. Gonzales was killed. In answering the reference brought out by Mr. Nelson concerning the conversation which occurred with Mr. W. H. Glbbes, lie said unit llie eases deckled by the Court were not for change of venue, but were those in which motions have lieen made to quash the indictment and challenge the array of jurors on aeCJiint oi the illegal drawing of jurors. In the case of Sullivan, where the sheriff was just elected it would have been four years before the defendant could have gotten a trial, and in that case Judge Mclver granted a change of venue. As the law now stands two ootntnisJsioners can draw the jury and it is not necessary for a change of venue on this ground. (Jen. Bellinger then went over the filldavits presented by the defence, hie of the allidavits makes an insinuation that a Nort hern paper had made suggestions t hat a fund lie raised to prosecute Tillman. These allidavits are so prejudiced for the defendant that they can have no force with the Oourt. They further state that citizens of Bichland have come to them saying that Tillman could not get a fair t rial in this county. These allidavits seem to be merely suppositions and are not based on facts. If forsooth under these trying circumstances the publishers of the State should say something that is not discreet in reference to this case, would the defendant lie deprived of getting a fair trial here? Indeed it hum utrn sum iiiiOUgUOUl the whole State of South Carolina that the newspapers have been mild in the handling of this ease. The surviving brother of Mr. Gonzales, who began tbis paper twelve years ago, have had will power enough to suppress the two thousand articles which have come into their otticc. Within less than one hundred yards from where X. G. Gonzales had worked for ten years he was shot down by Tillman and there was no attempt of violence against him. He has spent five months in tail without any Governor's Hoards or any protection whatever. Tillman goes around now with as much protection and safety asany person in South Carolina. Because the State forsooth publishes articles about liars, t hieves and criminals, as does any other reputable paper, the defence thinks that it is done to prejudice the people of Kiehland County against -lamer H. Tillman. "Suspicion always haunts the guilty mind. The th'ef doth fear each hush an olllcer." Because the State has declined just tribute to Mr. George II. Uembert and Col. 1*. 11. Nelson I see no resison why the atlidavit of Mr. Uembert should have any force Gen Bellinger, in conclusion, stated Urietly the reason why the change should not lie granted, lie made a powerful argument and was eagerly heard by the hundreds of people in the Court room. ? in i i ?. -'I'L JiKNT. Solicitor J. W. Thurmond followed for the State and began his argument, by bringing to the attention of the Court what was necessary for the granting or a change of venue. Why do they ask for this change? First. Because there are only 1 ,liou I white jurors out of 4,ooo voters. This certainly should not l>e sutlicient| grounds for t he change. Because Mr. W. II.(!ibl>es had made a statement that he was opposed lo Tillman, and because he is county auditor the change should be granted. Mr. Thurmond showed that the Sullivan case, which had been referred to, was not at all similar. The next point refuted was that because a few citizens had subscriltcd to a monument fund. This should not wrap public opinion in such a manner as to prevent the defendant from obtaining a fair and impartial trial. Several cases were referred to in which it had been decided that newspaper editorials should not be sulVicient grounds for a change of venue. It is well established that when the prejudice is confined to one locality a change of venue cannot lie granted. Solicitor Thurmond spoke for forty minutes and made a forcible argument, bringing out many points of law which had not been touched upon by his associates. At the conclusion of Solicitor Thurmond's argument Ex-.Iudge O. W. Buchanan, who is conncctd with the counsel for the defence, arose and addressed the Court. A TlltADK AOAtNST T11K I'ISKSS. Judge Buchanan said that he had not expected to say anything in the ' case, but he was so impressed with the treatment of the defendant by the newspapers that he was compelled to have a few words to say. lie began in an impassioned manner, saying t hat atone time the press of the country was regarded with respect and honor, but now it was allied with the great force of money. Wit h I he great sweep iiiK nitx m mi- n.ll I III" If CillllC WIIUI is known us "commercialism." Now we have "newspaper oratory and newspaper bawling." Judge Buchanan hitterly denounced the State as a paper which lashed, slashed and heat men to fury. A man otto-day dares not lit ler his independent opicnion unless he is ridiculed by the newspapers ol I he country. During the whole argument Mr. Buchanan showed much feeling and his speech created a Mutter among those present, lie said that "the State" was trying t lie attorneys for the defence, hut that he had lived a free man and would die 1 one. lie did not propose to lie tyrannized by t he newspapers. ('ont inning, he said: "Don't you know that you can go to any one on the street and ask, Bill, how about this case?' and he will reply: '<>h you can't get a fair trial here; these newspapers down t lust reet have been inflaming the minis of the people so that a fair trial is im|xissihle.' lie said that this community had been so sat united and poisoned by '?< newspapersthat many i had been forced to sign affidavits lor L the prosecution for fear that if they A did not do so their families would surB fer mi account <>i the pressure brought B to bear by "the State." Everj busi noss man in the State is under i D<Bt domination ol the mighty newspapers. Judge Buchanan, continuing, said that t h>- ministers of the fiospel had gone so far as to lie lashed by t his liend, B and the pooi fellows have i>ccn made Bjdk to come here and sweat that 111< i i no prejudice in Itichland against the accused. The newspapers were assert* lug so much power that they now are leading the fountain of Justice. A man is tried these days by the newspapers and is either acquitted or condemned before the case comes to trial. Kk*Judge Buchanan continued hlf speeoh against tite press for three* uuarters of an hour, when Judge Tow intend interrupted hiiu, saying; that theio woa only fifteen minutes left to his side and that ho supposed i C'ol Ueorjre W, Croft would nay some- I thing. The Court then took a root's* i until 1 o'clock. Kx-Judge ihielianan's speech look up all of tno time of the deforce except twenty minutes, and, although Cul Croft offered tu allow tho other side tmwiui i ii his nine was exieuued, tlie otTer was refused, but as a matter of fact lie look up thirty-tive minutes and was stopped by the .1 udge. col crokt's ahoumknt. Col Croft argued chiefly on the law of the question and declared that the only thing to be considered is whether there is a reasonable doubt that a fair trial cannot be had. To say that this appeal is a slur upon the people is a narrow and contracted view, when It is a constitutional light. He held the people here to lie as pure and as good as any others, but they are no better. The asking of tue change is not only not unreasonable, hut it is but natural that it should be. Before this case arose no man had been so traduced and slandered as this defendant. He was denounced as a debauohe, liar, coward and of no repute so far as the public press is concerned. He dwelt with much emphasis upon this phase of tlie case, and went on to say that the influence of the State had been used to saturate the minds of tlie people with poison against the defendant, lie referred continually to the fact tliat (ion/.ales was spoken of as a martyr and Tillman as a murderer and assassin. He referred to an editorial written by the Kev Dr 10vans in the State calling Tillman a murderer and assassin. I'uhlieat ions from ot her patters continually added lire to the (lames of prejudice. The whole community was stirred up; itschicf men in commercial life, its preachers, its women and even its children. They were all made tobelicve that < Ion /.ales died for the honor of the country, while every man that knows that his attacks on Tillman were actuated hy tho deepest venom. They had been swept away from tho mooring of their conservatism. He nevor had been so surprised in his life as when tlie press of t in- city asked to publish the affidavits in this case before they were stilimit ted to tlie Court . Only liccausc the State's attorneys refused to allow it were the hands of the press tied. He then paid his respects to the editor oi nit* itccord, whom lie said was so biased that he had no laea of fairness or a decent regard for ri^ht when it came to considering I'lis ease. lie declared that t?en .1 ones had felt the pressure of social condemnation, and was by it compelled to take a vacillating attitude in this case. THE CII.VNUK HHANTKI). Whc" Mr. Croft closed Jud^c Townsend remarked that he had kept up with the atlldavits for three days and had never listened to such able arguments, and he was convinced that the change of venue should tie granted. lie entered upon no statement of his reasons and, merely making the brief announcement, said lie was ready hear suggestions as to the county in which to try it. THE Bi ICKUl TuiAL" ILA1M. Mr. Nelson said Tillman was anxious for a speedy trial and only two counties were now available Kd^etield and Saluda. Mr. Thurmond spoke of tlie inconveniences of Saluda, and suggested either Kershaw or Lexington. As to a speedy trial lie said Kdtfetield Court would l>e held the tirst Monday in August; Saluda the third, Camden the lirst Monday in September and Lexington the third. Mr. Crawford expressed serious objections to Saluda because it was practically the home of the defendant, being tile county of which (Jeorge l>. Tillman was the father, and the State would not have an equal show of fairness there witli the defendant. Col Croft ridiculed the idea that i (leorgc 1>.

He declared that the defence could not pretend that they wanted a speedy trial, because they had a chance dnvfcig the last Court, when the State agreed to accept any a ft Ida v its absent witnesses might make. To ltecluliii West Virginia The Columbia Stale says Gov. Heyward has received an interesting letter from George K. Gladden, a member of the legislature of the Stale of West Virginia. In writing for a copy of the election laws of South Carolina, lie says: "We expect to reclaim West Virginia's good old Democracy at the 1 general election of HUM and if we succeed we want to establish election and registration laws in order to eliminate the negro vote. Tills would also kill tiie. ignorant white vote, largely Rcpuhlicrn, flowing into the State liecause of its industrial devlopment. The coming of the element into our State is what carried it Republican. Rut since Republican rule is greatly 011 the wane we have good prospects to carry it for Democracy. If such should he tlie case we expect to enact such laws as would hold it in line for all time." Negroes lOxcitetl. Negro lvnehinirs in tun nnrtiinm slates within a month have aroused the colored people of Chicago to t remendous pitch of excitement and protest. The burning of a negro at the stake near Wilmington. Del., has especially aroused them and added to the recent killing of David Wyatt at Itelleville, 111., has brought the agitation against mob violence to an acute stage. At theQuinn Chapel meeting of colored citizens last night violent speeches were made against lynehlngs and colored men were urged to arm themselves and protect their race against the whites a. mhmi |2i|^L,^ry THfc CARLISLE FITTING SCHOOL.

The arrival of a squad of police, however, quickly dispersed the participants. Two arrests i were made. A gang of negroes numbering probably two hundred who had c been marching up and down Ninth street were challenged by about twen- 1 ty-five white men and in the battle ' that followed over a hundred shots ( were exchanged.

The cot- ji ton was of the upland long staple variety and came from the Mississippi Itotlom lands. It is known as the "Mississippi Render."' Tins cotton > usually sells for 1 cent to 1 1-4 cents higher than the ordinary short stapleThe Cox mill had more cotton on hand than was needed to run until the new crop comes in. and as a fancy price wasotfered it was decided to sell | a part of it.
