WHAT HE KNOWS S ( 1 About Fraud in the Management < of the Dispensary. {SENATOR, TILLM *N (lives Testimony Before the litvcstigaN Ipr Committee in Columbia, he* Says That Circumstantial Evidence Points to Aluch Thieving The Columbia correspondent cf the Augusta Chronicle sats there was no standing room on Tuesday night of last week in the aisle or galleries c f the hall of the house of representatives when Senator Tillman took tin stand to tesoifv before the dispensary investigating committee. Senator Tillman was on the stand over two hours, and though lie Is uot a man to waste words in coining to the point i his evidence disclosed nothing new Still what he had to say was received i with much interest and frequently he i was applauded generally. He often i turned the taules on the attorneys j questioning him, these incidents ( causing laughter to his favor. At times the hearing r. semhled a typical ( Tillman campaign meeting. The ten- i ator arranged a seat for himself on i top the speaker's desk so that he I could see and he seen by the entire r hcuse. When he mounted the desk t and sat down he was vigorously ap- t plaudtd. n ''Have you any Information in re- p gard to an" graft, rebate or Impropor u dealing on the par* of any dispensary a company 0;j or any r,Cird al) ut the di?- d To Senator Tillman?" was Mr. / 8e8 ' Question. I T ? Q,hn order to be able to have myuolf li tTr \ larlght and have the committee y \ neratand just what 1 know and h /at. 1 kon't know and what I believe a Jon very strong evidence, 1 will have /to acswer that question In my own way. / "As to knowing specifically of any ^ instance of my knowledge that a; y Buch tbirg has occurred 1 answer no. c And as for the rea.on which navo Ir- v ilueneed ma in saying what 1 have to said In interviews and in spteohea I 0 will nlve the foundation for nay opln- * ion" t Here Senator Tillman begin tr reen n a recent advertisement of the board 1 for bids. P I "I have one other question," Interrupted Mr. Lyon, ''while you were In charge of the dispensary, did you re- 11 celve any money in rebates, graft 0r * in any improper way from the Mill ^ Cr^? k Distillery Co.?" v r "I did not." t "Did you receive it from any t scurce?" 0 "No." t Se. ator Tillman wont on to explain 1 that he had twice volunteered to come 1 before the oommlttoe, and though he u was exceedingly busy In Washington e and as a United Statxa senator was uot r within the jurisdiction of the committee, he came because the commit- r tee was ready for him. Aftor reading y the advertisement, Senator Tillman * Bald: c t EVIDENCES OF GRAFT. "1 h*ve had no time to yet up any { papers to produce the necessary b sis , for a le^al argument.

A [llOAHU VIOLATED THE LAW. t Accusing tba board cf also vlolot- b ing the law In allowing disoontinuance of request blanks and criticising s it for the revelations about bottles v and labels and whiskey, Senator ' Tillman shouted: ' t "This tm. ke has been getting very P big, and it seems to me stealing has t been go.ng on here. 1 had the courage to say it as I believe it, and tbat is all there is to it, that is the base 1 ?>of it. t .

(Applause ) ACCUSED HIM OK 8TBALI NO "Tmi or twelve years ago there were accusations, charges, lnslnur* tlons, sneers appearing la ocrtatn newspapers, and uttered by certain people,' that I had lined my pockets with rebatn and had gotten rich. When 1 left the governor's office Id 1HW4, I returned to my home in Edgefield. 1 had ocoaaion to buy some land for tbe purpose of getting a homo on ibe railroad. I was bom and reared b >n nuiiofl from a depot or a telegraph offlos. Having been elected to the sona.o of the United Stat-ee it was necessary that 1 shcuH get In touoh with the world more Intimately, so 1 bought a plantation at Trenton, for which I paid oauh. This buzzing in tee air, these rlaoderg and these lies, I will say, going about the country, notwithstanding the feople had pass ed on them by electing me?these things caused some people to go to Klg'li.Md and search the records to sen what. I had. The probe of the enemies of Hoji Tillman went Into my individual buslnew-s. My frlerd, W A Clark, president of the Caroline National bank came out and stated that be had loaned me from hi? bank the roll amount of the purchase money, 10,000, because 1 had entered public life poor, and If there Is any credit bo jlalm It, I am poor yet. (Applause.

(Applause). MUST 1IAVH ltKKN SOMETHING IN IT. 1 Chairman Hay: ' Where la your au 1 horlly for thai ?" j Senatir Tillman: "I am giving cir r umstantlal evidence coupled with * arious statements that have bean r rought out In evidence and it Is In- t vltably my conclusion that no man I rould prostitute hie ortioe and disobey 1 he law ao braaenly and openly In ( ae Wimv A..? ^- * J?>IUK puiuiUMPUS iur ItllU HIAT (3, 5< 'lese exorbitant rales over and above ' rices people in other states are pay- * rig.

Mr. Lyon: "So far as I am tmforrrd the committee bas no other que*lon to ask, unless some indhl uai Qerober has or the board of directors vho stand under accusation as I ur erstand it. They may possibly chIre to be heard through their repreentatixes." QUESTIONED BY DKFDN8K. General Bellinger, who represents he directors Beyaiu and T ?wlll, prt eeded to question Seuator Tillaan. "Your intention in offering youi ) nie c ) umticee was 10 testify as a fitness?' "I did not offer myself to the comaitbee except uud;r this condition: ?he newspapers were sneering and islng every Imaginable argument gainst the dispensary and suggested hat Senator Tillman ought to oomr lefore the committee and tell what le knows. I had been making perches and feeling then as now. 1 van willing io give any light I could. Old not have as much Information hen as now but I was ready to apiear bf fore the committee whenever hey wanted me." Q. "Your Idea In coming before he committee was to n ake a speech >ef'?re the committee was It not, or ti estlfy to facts whlo \ you yourself yore acquainted with?" A. "I did not feel like making a perch. 1 have plenty of opportunity to make speeches. Q "You will pl?&90 answer my W ?# * v > ? question Senator. Your Intention in Doming before the committee was f jr what purpose?" A "To make a suggestion, that th*v might get a truth." Q, "D d you Dot on several ocbslowa at various places in this state, perhaps in Washington once or twice, state that there was collusion and fraud and you o?uld prove It?" A. What I stated was In the papers. Q. That you could prove It? A. Thau I could prove It from circumstantial evidence, which 1 have adduced. Q. You wanted to oome here to vindicate yourself? A. I have nothing to vindioaVo Nobody has charged rce with anything. What do you mean by vlnd casing my position? Q. Wl?i you charged the dispen lary board, the present managers of that board, with fraud, and stated that the diepousary system was good, f.nd the only thing to do was to turn out the present thieves, Is that the position you desired to come down uere and suHtaln yourself on? A I .11 , .. .* J " ' l.. 1 tv i uia iij'j utoiru vj uuiJUtt m'TO At all, If somebody h*fl not asked th?Q I oomo and you are the very man, I believe who did. Hut for that I would be In Waovugton now. STANDS ON HIS KKCOKD Q. Dou't you think representing as i did some of the members of the board when I asked this committee tc bring you here, that vou should try to prove what you said vou could prove? A. vSo far as 1 am ooncerued, I did not think anything about it. 1 stand on ray record, stand on my oharaotcr, stand (di what I am and what I have done. Q. You have said that you were charged by many people In this state with lining your pockots with rebates and com missions when you were managing this dispensary. A, Yes sir. Q. And a great many people In the stat* b'dlevad that A. Yes I believe Ihev did. 'Do you want to know my reasor ? Q. No use to give that now. a. Ah, you do not want my oplnon no*? (the crowd laughed ) Q. You can give, said Mr. BelInger. A. I look at It from this standpoint. There is no doubt If I had >eeu corrupt, and wanted to make noney out of my position as governor n buying whiskey, 1 oould havedon'J t. There Is ro use to dispute that proposition. It Is too seif evident. [Viose men who were my enonaleswnw 1 oould do It If 1 so willed and they eeuoned If he could he had, and then he envltable coi o uslon followed that ! had stolen; because If they had been n my place they would have stoleu. Applause.) Q. Senator will you please give us io t, the evidence upon whlob you >ased your conclusion, that those vhom you charged with stealing and tolen? I want to test your oiroumtantlal evidence. Have you given us ' he foots upon which you based your ' occlusion that this management Is 1 lishonent, the present management ( vdoh you have plaoed before this jommlttee. You say this Is not a relueat for competitive bids. (Mr. Bellnger exhibits the o.rcular which the 1 lenator had previously read ) A. I do. I wuuld go to the gov jrnraent bonded warehouses and 1 would hu? It out of th? warehouse. DIDNT IIAVK THE MONKY. Q. If you did not do that when fou had charge of the dispensary, why io you say t iese men should do so low? A. Because they have had the opportunity with cash to do it and I did int.. I had to buy on credit. Q. When you managed the dispensary. the in w did not require any competitive bid? A. No it did not require any bid fling at all. Q You had the entire managemeut of U? A.

Tfioy Should be Careful "Who the Cli'lilrt 11 AaaooiAtn With. It is an ancient Greek proverb which says, "Give your child to be educated by a slave and Instead of one slave you will have two." The significance of these words will be carefully considered by mothers who have their children's highest welfare at heart. Mothers who allow their children to Sf>end hours each day with ol ance employees upon the farm, are often horrified to tind a precious little one using vulgar langusge or relating astray bit of gossip quite beyond his youthful yean; Influences of early life upon character are stroug, and true it Is that even a mature person of a refined nature, ooming In contact with Immorality will Imbibe something of the grossness. Stringers frequently are placed upon the farm to work, and tt e chlU dren allowed to go with them where Inclination may leed; often this prove, highly injurious to the child; the mother is, Indeed, worth little If she has not suflloient wisdom to advisee control, to encourage and to point ous the dangers and dltflculiles that beset the paths and to gain a strong hold upon the children by dally comoan iODHhlp; It Is not necessary to belong to a d zcn clubs to Impress us with tbe lraportanoe of intimate com pan icnshlp that should exist between mother and children. We do not need more club work but more well ! dir^otod Individual effort. During a ohtld's very early years, he Is constantly In need of ay.alst.anoe from the mother, hence Is closely as loolafced with her. No one can glvs the little attentions quite so satisfactorlly as the mother. It Is the mother who can soothe tho grief and re move tbe difficulties In suoh a pleasing manner. It Is during these early y?ar?, when the mother Is a constant necessity to the child, that she must le-y the foundation for the companionship for future years. The right of motherhood only, does not confei eonfldenoe and respeot of ohlldren, but to properly govern the children a mother must be all she wishes her shlldren to become. If she allows herself to display tits of temper can she punish the children when they do ' the same thing? Ohlldren gain false ideas by being illowod to so olovely ass date with the transient help on the farm. : Mothers should not allow vulgar torles repeated In their children's presence. It was a wise mother that. iald to a woman whose wit consisted In telling stories: "Mrs. M. I must tsk you not to repeat such stories In the presence of the calldren, their little minds are occupied with their lessons, their games and rauslo and I sim trying to keep them unsullied." ( Tale mother was bending all her en ? erglee toward making the lives of her ohlldren pure and beautiful within and without. When a woman he- l Bomes a mother she becomes a model whether she wills It or not. It Is really a noble mother who oan by ex ample teach her children patience cheerfulness, hopefulness and atudl, i ous habit*.
