THE TILLMAN CASE,
Coutltiucd ifom page 1.
kllUd Mrs. Isabella Stuart, for change
or Venus, was road out in full by Gen.
fcelllnger. He brought out the faot,
not road by Mr. Nelson, that at tho
time of tho killing there was a grout
uproar in Columbia; people had assembled
on Lira street to lynch Crawford
and It was only by being protected
by two military companies that ids
life was soared. IJo contrasted this to
the state that existed when Mr. Gonzales
was killed.
In answering I lie reference brought
out by Mr. Nelson concerning ttie
Conversation which occurred with
Mr. W. II. Glbltes, he said
that the cases decided by tho Court
were not. for change o? venue, but
Were those in which motions have Ikhmi
iiicuiu to quusn iue inoicuneni ami
challenge tlie array of juroi-s on account
or the illegal drawing of jurors.
In the case of Sullivan, where tlie
sheriff was just elected it would have
been four years before the defendant
could have gotten a trial, and in that
ease Judge Melver granted a change
of venue.
v As the law now stands two com mis\
sionerscan draw the jury and it is not
* necessary for a change of venue on this
ground.
Gen. Bellinger then went over the
ftlidavits presented by the defence.
>ne of the attidavits 'makes an insinuation
that a Northern paper had
made suggestions that a fund be raised
to prosecute Tillman. These attidavits
are so prejudiced for the defendant
that they can have no force with the
Court. They further state that citizens
of Uichland have come to them
saying that Tillman could not get a
fair t rial in this county. These attidavits
seem to be merely suppositions
and arc not based on facts.
If forsooth under these trying circumstances
tlie 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
has been said throughout the whole
Stale of South Carolina that the newspapers
have been mild in the handling
of this case.
The surviving brother of Mr. Gonzales,
who began this paper twelve
vitio iiinv nau v% 111 |?wv>?*i niuw^ii
to suppress the two thousand articles
which have come into their oilice.
Within less than one hundred yards
from where N, G. Gonzales had worked
for ten years lie was shot down hy Tillman
and there was no attempt of
violence against him. He has spent
five months in jail without any Governor's
Guards 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 parier,
the defence thinks that it is done
o prejudice the people of Kichland
County against .lames 11. Tillman.
"Suspicion always haunts the guilty
Wind. The th'cf doth fear each hush
an otlicer." Because the State has
declined just tribute to Mr. George it.
Ueinbert and (Job 1'. H. Nelson 1 see
uo reason why the allidavit of Mr.
Uembert should have any force
Gen Bellinger, in conclusion, stated
hriet\y the reason why the change
should not he granted, lie made a
powerful argument and was eagerly
heard by the hundreds <>f people in
the Court room.
IU i; Mi _:<<I MIC NT.
Solicitor J. W. Thurmond followed
for the State and began his argument
liy bringing to the attention of the
Court what was necessary for the
granting of a change of venue. Why
do they ask for this change?
First. Because there are only 1,1100
white jurors out of 4,000 voters. This
certainly should not. be sutlicient
grounds for the change.
Because Mr. W. II. Gihbcs had made
a statement that he was opposed to
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 simila*'.
The next point refuted was that
because a few citizens had subscribed
to a monument fund. This should
not wrap public opinion in such a man
tier as io prevent me ueieiHiant from
obtaining a fair ami impartial trial.
Several eases were referred to in
which it had been decided that newspaper
editorials should not be sutlleient
grounds for a change of venue.
It is well established that when the
prejudice is confined to one locality a
change of venue cannot be 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-.ludge <). W.
Huchanan, who is connectd with the
counsel for the defence, arose and addressed
the Court.
A T1KADK AOAINST THK PKKSS.
Judge Huchanan said that lie had
pot expected to.say anything in the
case, hut he was so impressed with the
treatment of the defendant by tin*
newspapers that he was compelled to
have a few words to say. He began
in an impassioned manner, saying that
atone tune the press of the country
was regarded with respect and honor,
hut now it was allied with I lie great
force of money. With the great sweeping
wave of tlie war there came what
is known as "commercialism." Now
we have "newspaper oratory and new spaper
bawling."
Judge Huchanan bitterly denounced
the State as a paper which lashed,
slashed and beat men to fury. A man
of to-day dares not ut lei Ins independent
opionion unless lie is ridiculed by
thc newspapers of the country. During
the whole argument Mr. Huchanan
showed much feeling and bis speech
created a flutter among those present.
He said that "the State" was trying
the attorneys for l lie defence, hut that
he had lived a free man and would die
one. lie did not propose to he ty ran nixed
by the newspapers, font inning, lie
said: "Don't you know that you can
go to any one on the street and ask,
Hill, how aliout this case?' and lie will
reply: '<>h you can't get a fair trial
here! I liese iipuxnnnirv itinvn tlx.
street have been inllaming t Ik* minis
of the people so that a fair trial is
impossible.' lie said that this community
had been so saturated and
poisoned by the newspapers t hat many
had been forced to sign affidavits lor
the prosecut ion for fear that if they
I did not do so t lieir families would suf1
for on account of t he pressure hroinrht
B to liear by "the State." Kverv busi
ncss man in the State is under tin*
B doininat ion of t he mighty newspapers.
A Judge Ihichanan, continuing, said
that the ministers of the tlospel had
^B gone so far as to he lashed by t his liend,
Sg^B and the poor fellows have hcen made
to come here and sweat that there is
no prejudice in Itichlnnd against the
accused. The hewapapers Wdte assert*
In? so muoh power that they now arc
leading the fountain ot Justice. A man
Is tried these days by the newspapers
and is either acquitted or condemned
before the case comes to trial.
Kx-Judge Buchanan continued his
speed) against the press for three*
HuaVters of an hour, wheu Judge
'owusend interrupted him, saying
that thcro waa only fifteen minutes1
left to his aide and that ho supposed !
Pol tleorge Yf, Croft would say some*
thing. The Court then took a recess
until i o'clock.
1 Kx-Judeo Ituchunan's speech took
up all of tlio time of the defence except
twenty minutes, and, although Col
, Croft ofTered to allow tho other side
limit her kupmcIi if liiu t Iium w;k <>vt i.iut.
ed, Ihe olTor was refused, but as a
matter of fact lie took up thirty-five
minutes and was stopped by the
.1 udge.
COL croft's AtlOUMKNT.
Col Croft argued chiefly on the law
of the question and declared that the
only tiling 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
right. He held the people here
to Ihj as pure and as good as any
i others, but they are no better.
The asking of the change is not only
not unreasonable, but it is but natural
that it should lie. Before this case
arose no man had been so traduced
and slandered as this defendant. He
was denounced as a dcbauche, liar,
coward and of no repute so far as the
public press is concerned. He dwelt
with much emphasis upon this phase
of the case, and went on to say that
the influence of the State had been
used to saturate the minds of t lie people
with poison against the defendant,
lie referred continually to the fact
that (ionzales was spoken of as a
martyr and Tillman as a murderer
and assassin. He referred to an editorial
written by the Rev I ?r 10vans in
the State calling Tillman a murderer
and assassin, l'uhlicat ions from other
papers continually added tire to the
(lames of prejudice. The whole community
was stirred up; its chief men
in commercial life, its preachers, its
women and even its children. They
were all made tolielieve that (ionzales
died for the honor of the country,
while every man that knows that his
attacks on Tillman were actuated by
the deepest venom. They had been
swept away from the mooring of their
conservatism. He never ban boon so
surprised in his life as when the pros s
of the city asked to publish the affidavits
in this case before they were
submitted to the Court. Only because
the state's attorneys refused to allow
it were the hands of the press tied.
He then paid his respects to t he editor
of the. Record, whom he said was so
biased that lie had no inea of fairness
or a decent regard for right when it
came to considering this case, lie
declared that (Jen Jones had fell the
pressure of social condemnation, and
was hy it compelled to take a vacillating
at titude in tins case.
THE CHANGE GRANTED.
Who" Mr. Croft closed Judge
Townsend remarked that he had kept
up with the attidavits for three days
and had never listened to such ahle
arguments, aud he was convinced that
the change of venue should he granted.
lie entered upon no statement of
his reasons and, merely making the
brief announcement, said he was ready
hear suggestions as to the county in
which to try it.
THE 'siEKUi TltlAL." CLaIM.
Mr. Nelson said Tillman was anxious
for a speedy trial and only two
counties were now available Edgetield
and Saluda.
Mr. Thurmond spoke of the inconveniences
of Saluda, and suggested
either Kershaw or Lexington. As to
a speedy trial he said Edge tie Id Court
would be held the tirst Monday in
August: Saluda the third, Camden
the tirst Monday in Septemlter and
Lexington the third.
Mr. Crawford expressed serious
objections to Saluda liecause it was i
practically the home of the defendant, i
being the county of which (Jeorgc l>.
Tillman was the father, and the State
would not have an equal show of fairness
there with the defendant.
Col Croft ridiculed the idea that s
(Jeorgc I). Tillman's work in behalf or
Saluda would affect the judgment of
nic ycupii;. lie maue HgUL OI tne
tifteen miles of rocky road the witnesses
would have to travel to net to ;
the Court House from the nearest i
railroad station, and mentioned four ;
or live "hotels and hoarding houses" i
people could stop at. i
LKT T11K STATE IIAVE A CHANCE. 1
Mr. Hellinger declared that it would
he wrong to take the case to Saluda,
because it would be taking it to a
county where the State would l?e at a
great disadvantage. He declared that
the defence could not pretend that
they wanted a speedy trial, because
they had a chance dttftoig the last
Court, when the State agreed to accept
any affidavits absent witnesses
might make.
To ltccluiiii West Virginia
The Columbia State says (low lleyward
has received an interesting letter
from George K. Gladden, a member :
of the legislature of the State of West
Virginia. In writing for a copy of the ;
election laws of South Carolina, be
says: "We expect to reclaim West Virginia's
good old Democracy at the <
general election of HUM and if we succeed
we want to establish election and
registration laws in order to eliminate
the negro vote. This would also kill
the ignorant white vote, largely Republicrn,
flowing into the State because
of its Industrial dcvlopment.
The coming of the element into our
State is what carried It Republican. !

Negro lynehings in two northern

The burning of a negro at, the

pecially aroused tliein and added to
the recent killing of David Wyatt at
Itelleville, 111., lias brought the agitation

of Miss Stephens has the endorsement
of the whole body of students as well
as that of the community abroad.
She tills her place in the girls' I swarding

tlie departments of English and history,
and of Latin and Greek, we observe
that l'rof. W. C.Owen and Prof.

Mrs. Josephine Itearh, the pouplar

is quite fortunate to have her
services. The Carlisle Fitting School
offers three courses in her curriculum:
A preparative for the Fresh

class, and a preparative for
a successful entering on business life.
This last course is prepared for those
young men and womc-n who cannot

We have here in our midst the opportunity
offered to our young people
for a thorough education at a most
reasonable cost. We understand that
a student in all departments can spend
a year here at the low cost of $107,
paying for board, tuition and all fees.

are glad that there is a bright out

the people of Hauiberg give this institution

it claims it.
A llncc lliot.
At Wilmington, l>el., a riot broke
out Thursday night between whiles
and negroes which for a time assumed
serious pro port ions. The arrival of a
squad of police, however, quickly dispersed
the participants. Two arrests
were made. A gang of negroes numbering
probably two hundred who had
been marching up and down Ninth
street were challenged hy about twenty-five
white men and in the battle
that followed over a hundred shots
were exchanged. A squad of policemen
under Captain Evans and Ser/eant
McDcrmot rushed to the scene and
unaiKL-u u(juii liic muii. i nc negroes
and whites scattered and lied ii .ill
directious but the police succeeded in
capturing two negroes. Several uer5011s

Fourteen CeutH Cotton.
The Anderson correspondent of
The State says the Cox Cotton mill of
that city sold 100 hales of cotton last
week at 14 cent per pound. The cotton
was of the upland long staple
variety and came from the Mississippi
bottom lands, it is known as the
"Mississippi Render." This cotton
usually sells for l cent to 1 l-l 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 was offered it was decided to sell
a part of it. The cotton was Imiight
for Id cents and some of it for less, so
a handsome price wa.i realized. The
mill still has on hand enough cotton
to run on full time until the new crop
comes in.
