Aooordirjf to the repurta In the da ly papers I ho most exciting political meeDiiK hold in S?iui ti Carolina f<>r the past tv.olve o; fourteen yeura w>.s held at lJaletburg on last Saturday. The mectin# was o h ed 10 orctr tq i I)r. W. 11. Timmcrmau, who ijtro dueed a* toe first speaker IT n (J. II j Ktird, of Lextrtfton. Mr. Ktlrd made a tfood speech In favor of the dispen tary. Dr. Tim merman then presented Senator Tillman, who w<u> received with applause. "I made up ray mind before secak lnNr at Marion t :ut these speeches are useless," said the senator in opetiino his remarks, "but it willbechlT rent next Htmmer." 11c laid ho was here today on tlx invitation of the mayor and GO or 70 other citizens to discuss the liquor question. The Invitation also stated that McL '.urin had been invited, lie noticed that the in vita | tk n contained one. name which was | underscored; it was that of John Bell Towill, whom all present know. It seomod to him then, said ho, that this i W88 a cno.Uer^e to come to his norue and say what he had said else where. "It appeared aiso that in the invita tion to address \oa to a man with . whom I had bad ait unpleasantness .there was an implied challenge that J , vv( u.d not. be here and would l>e ac cused of belri? afraid to mi,et him." ( "I never Lay auy thing that I would ( not say to a man's teeth. It it; a citizen's rJoht to ask anybody to apeak. | 1 have no reason to feel but that all have respect and good feeling for mo, but 1 obj ct t.o being placed on the saino plane with a naan who has betrayed his trust as a Democrat, a man who In Washington is no longer ro garded as a Democrat. 1 grew a little small and indignant." lie said he had obeyed orders as a public servant and had maintained the trust imposed in him and resented the implication by which lie had been placed on a level with a man who had betrayed his trust. He had said to bio teeth what ho thought about his (MeLxurin's) action. "This is a Democratic question wc are to settle," he said with some warmth, deolarii.g that be would not debate the dlspeusary with Republicans. 1 am a Democrat a. d it is a , purl of tnv business as Latio..;?.l mj.h. I mitteerran to k -ep the party In line iu South Carolina. 1 refuted lis? invitation because MeLaurln Is not my equal. He is not my tqual ~s a Democrat, whatever else lie may be. (applause.) Here the Senator took up the Gispeneary. He sa d but for the good women the men vrould have lost 1 the seed corn of genuine rellgtou. ! Don't believe in voting out the (lispecBr.ry, said lie, that you will get rid of liquour. Ho then made a Jocular reference as to what Mr. Etird had said about ( being a straddler, declaring that he ( had never been en the fence in poll- ' tics. The only fences tie had ever i been on were those in crossing fields wlnn he was a boy. He Naid he would 1 rather fall oil and break his neck than 1 to stra Hil.j any proposition. The office ol United States senator, said he, > returns to the people when his term ^ expires and they could then do as they 1 saw tit. 1 "A man on the fence in 1892 had 1 the cogs after him on both sides," he 1 remarked. A majority of the people had never asked for prohibition. Peo- J pit itihi newspapers nao nca jvdou\i it. ' In 1892 40,000 people bad voted for prohibition and 48,000 voted against ] it or did not vote at all. He argued 1 with (Jbilds and Nettles to accept the 1 dispensary bill, which was passed. If 1 any responsibility was needed fur this 1 be would take it. 5 "Well, close it up," said a voice in 5 the audience. 5 "I don't know what part you bad to do with it, but 1 w ta down yonder in chaise." He said he was charged with making the dispensary a pollti- ^ cal maorlne during his second term as 1 governor but he needed no political machine, as he wus then going out of ' cilice. He had received a greater ma- ] jority for governor than auy other man except Hampton. "Boys, we'll see'em next year; and we'll settle this question," shouted the Senator. He knows where his 1 dependence is?upon the plain, common people. "Political machine! the Democratic primary is the ouly machine 1 need," said he. He said that only one-third of the Domocratio vote had been polled In the live counties 1 which had voted out the dispensary. ] Taking up the matter of petitions, he said anybody could sign a petition, ' even a Tree "nigger," but anybody couldn't vote. The question will be 4 settled next summer when all white 1 men will be able to vote. They have 1 tried s'x times to kill the dispensary and had failed. 1 "One of the best men in 8outh Carolina who has offered for office, a 1 good Confederate soldier, would have * been elected six years ago but for the a ill health for some time, wu vu?? j on, ?ii fact tha* he was on the prohibition ticket That man ww. Col. James A. Hon." no said the opponents of the dispensary hid born preparing for this light *or 12 months vhile its friends v ere picking cotton and let it go.

"What about the requ at books, Mr. Towlll? '?the repiv was lost In tho noise which followed. Senator Till men then said he had 'net Mr. TdwIU en the train shortly utter his election on the I) ard and bad congratulated him, telling ldm ijhat If l?o would got In t.he middle of Lho toad ho would bb all right, and rowill said that was what he intended to do. but that ho had played too devil doing it.. Mr. Towil' arose and said Rome thing which was not heard by tho cor* respondent, tc. which Tillman replied: "1 haven't charged >ou with stealing." in - ,i am not nere ror any man, but, for a great Issue whlel csncerns c-vory IV me in South Carolina. The bars nave been let down one bv one until thecoma have got in and ruined the whole business," said Tillman. Referring to the famous labels, b'^e Senator said tbry contained the n -.nr c:s of the board and next. January if on of the directors failed to be reelected the lab T\ vould be wortble-fl. Mr. Towill interrupted the speaker end said: "You recall in that same conversation we had on the train, you asked why \vc didn't cut out those cheap cose goods, that they wer. hurting the dispensary?" Tillman?"Well, why didn't you do lty" Towill?"You havo made stste mente r bout those labels and I want to explain myself. 1 stated what >< u had said to the board and asked them to cut cut cbeup case gcorts and no more was bought after thai. 'Old Grow,' 'Old Joe,' TUilly Hoys' j.u;o such brands were discarded. Wnt-.n those labels were bought it was estimated that they would last about 15 PQOQttW." Tillman?"Why did you buy $500, 000 more than tho law alio wee.? W< y didn't you shut 'em up (mea leg the board) because tiioy couldn't makt you do y.uir duty." Continuing, Tillman said that if ail the people who drb k vote for him h ) would never want for t dice. At tlile juncture Uev. 1). M Pad jett, the aged minister, with long white beard and weak of voice, lot r'upted the speaker, asking him to 1.1 ip on the preachers, to which T'llm vn replied, "Thou let up on me." A sharp jolloquy followed. Tho remainder of Tillman's speeoh was along Hdck which have heretofore jeen published. At the conclusion of Senator Till [nan's speech Mr. Elird arovc and in a hew conciliatory remarks declared th vt ie believed Mr. TowiU's actions had seen straight anrl entirely honest and requested tho audience to remain seated and give Mr. Tov/ill a hearing, vfter which he urged them to go home ind prepare for the tight. Silt. TO WILL'S KKMAKK8. Stopping upon the platfo-m, Ip.borIng under much excitement, Mr. TowIll declared that he had no personal reeling against Senator Tillman; wa.3 iorry that he had lost his head and would not do it again. He believed Tillman had the InteroRt of the dls pensary and South Carolina at heart. Ills people knew him and he was .satisfied to abide their verdict. Tillman's statements had brought odium upom him ar.d the hoard. He wanted the Investigating committee to bring the noaid before It and make a thorough Investigation. When the present bop.rd went into ( lllce there was $250,000 old stock on hand and the dispensary owed $500,000. The board had not bought liquor In months by reason of the enormous purchases of the old l>oard. Mr. Boykln and himself had thought ierlously of resigning but Mr. Tatum Pegged him in God's name not to do It. Tillman?"It would have been better for your reputation," Resuming Mr. Towlll said he had lever asked a member of the legislature to vote for him and had not spent i dollar to be eleoted. Members had I Auu ww?|?v ?-r ? ^ , ? asked him If he didn't intend to holicit votes and he had told them no. "With $260,000 old stock on hand we j had to make some new purchases to 1 kcp tjp with the trade," he Raid. Tillman?"If the old board unloaded a hot poker <>u your bauds make them explain it." Mr. Towlll said he *-as ready and the board w.vs ready to yo before the investigating o 'inmiltee but t hey had not been asked. "1 hold dear my good nsme," said Mr. Towill, "a.nd I would rather be esteemed by Bor-ashurg people than to h.*.v< any ortico In the gift of the people. I have not heeri debauched neither have 1 Ix^en bdbed. I am uot. one dollar richer and the people of Batesburfj know it." I)r. Tlmme.rrnan then announced the morning adjourned. Ex- Senator McLaurin had bem Invltod to speak aiso but be had delioed. In his sp 'ici Senator Tillman bitrer Iv assailed the newspapers. naming The N'-ws and Courier but The S*. at>* ir? particular, f ?r their attacks upen him. "That hell hound in Columbia, who Is eoltor of The State, has told enough lies ou me to build a railroad of cro*stios to hall," declared Tillman )n one of his heated moments.
