% TILLMAN SHOCKED THE SENATE CALLS FOR REFORM ? OF PRIMARY * HE POINTS OUT WRONGS i Specifically Refers to the First l>isi trict in Kxhortation that the Name i of the State t?e lve|?t Hoan, and E S?v? it i.s Time to Take Steps to r j 10nd Corruption. At Washington on Thursday Senator Tillman gave out the following statement about patronage and polities in the lirst South Carolina Congressional district: "Some people in Charleston and Colleton counties will not understand just how or why Mr. 'Murray has become postmaster at Walterboro, while Mr. Storen has lost out In his tight for the position as collector of customs at Charleston. The situation was iust this: "(Jeorge Legaro, while living, endorsed both of those men for the respective oillces and 1 promised him I would do what I could for botli of them. "While the second primary was still pending in the Congressional district both names were sent to the President for appointment, but no action was taken. Senator Smith and I endorsed both men and bad the appointment been made when the names first went to the President both would have been In office now. For some reason, which I have never been able to understand Mr. Murray's name came to the Sena/to for poHtmaster at Walterboro while Storett's name hung fire. "When Mr. Whaley came to Washington and urged his rights to make the appointments in his district as we all had agreed that Congressmen stiould do, the situation, was, as I have above indicated. Wo endorsed 1 Mr. Murray, and to our surprise, the name came to the Senate the day after Mr. Whaley appeared hero and after the second primary had boon held. Although ho was a Congressman, he was to all intents and purposes elected, and wo so recognized 1 him. "Realizing tliat it would be unfair a to 'Mr. Whaley to press Storen's appointment, under the circumstances ^ we held it up and waited for news 4fc?m Charleston. I wrote to Ceorgo 1 Ijpgare's bosom friends there and ask' efl their opinion and advice. The replies were that if C.eorge Legaro wore 1 living they believed ho would be against Srtoren rather than for him. "Mr. Whaley had indicated a preference for Mr. Harvey tlrst, and for * Mr. Peters second. Finally It was agreed that Mr. Peters should be recommanded for appointment and his uame wan eent to the President and M is now before the Senate. "Murray's appointment had been cuade and was out of reach before >r Mr. Whaley arrived In Washington. The Senators would have stultified themselves had they tried to recall it. With Storen, the case was different, and we did recall his name and ^ UM Kj] t H \1 f ^ ?~ ? ? ^?n/?bAwuvwi A ciui .1, in i . oiuruii a liejfl Uv+J against Mr. Whaloy is tli? <wui?o of his failure to got tho office. "I think it worth while, and, inr; d?*>d, my duty, to warn tho people of the flret Congressional district, that if half we hoar in Washington ie iu true somebody ought to ho put in le the Penitentiary pretty soon. An examination of tho Ponal Code shows w that 9ee*1one 360, 861, 362, 363 and is Jt<?& have all boon violated by more 1 peopis than are aware of it, perhaps, pr Promises to give offices, actual payP rmont ?f money for votes, and other d serious crimes are mentioned. Many >t mtm, not in one county, but in several. are liable to go to the Penitentiary or pay fines. The papers of ni the State would do well and render m the public a service If they would no print theee sections of the Code aa u sr warning to office seekers and their or frioade. a "I sincerely trust that the next sesen sAon of the Legislature will throw at safeguards around the primary i a aa to make the corruption which is f charged impossible to occur. We in have laws enough fraud and id; bribery, if they are only enforced, rai |?ut laws are more waste paper If fi' tfcere are no officials ready to carry ty them out. Public opinion must comi8t pel the officers to do their duty or in< else the State will bo corrupted be throughout its borders. It will bo remembered that these statues were enacted after a Congressional race in ? the second district where much mon>y e^ was used. It is every clear to my 81 mind that the Democratic party must . i take active, aggressive steps to stop w< such transactions. We cannot hope iy for good government otherwise, or to st maintain the State's fair name. It is io enough to make any South Carolin>aj tan ashamed of his State to hear of so much rottenness and corruption In ? the First Congressional district." n ? ^ !or Reports from Washington are to tn( the effect that Capt. W. E. Gonzales, j j of The State, will be appointed min, later to Cuba. It would <be a most L appropriate appointment, and no doubt moat acceptable to Capt. Congales. i? ' I ; rSMU-V L ' I ....

M. | Norris, a cotton manufacturer of Catoechee, lio is willing to make a test for the show-down. The party is committed to a reduction of the tariff downward, says the Senator, and there is little prospect of petting the Sonato to change the hill. To Mr. Norris Senator Tillman wrote: "My Dear Mr. Norris: I have yours of April HO, and almost every cotton mill man in the state has bombarded mo with telegrams yesterday and last night. I presented them in the Senate this morning as petitions, and they were referred to the finance committee which deals with the tariff schedules. "I am afraid there is little or no prospect for help in the Senate to change the tariff hill as it will come from the House. Hut the Democratic party Is committed to tariff revision downward, and if wo are going to have soup houses and a general shutdown the sooner the better. I "I am urging my colleagues to I pass the hill promptly and get it on tiio stut uto books in order to let the medicine begin to work. I do not believe that disastrous times as you seem to anticipate will come. I think you must bo influenced by your Northern correspondents who are in the same business as you. "Assuring you of my deep interest in the welfare of the manufacturing industry in South Carolina and my willingness to do anything in my power, I am very sincerely yours, "Hi R. Tillman." Waking the Bleeping Dogs. By playing politics with the Japanese question, says The New York World, the Californians appear to have raised an issue that will bo more troublesome to them than the ownership by aliens of a few thousand acres of land. What will it profit the Hiram Johnson demagogues if in their blithe attempt to put the Democrats into a hole they set in motion forces that may extend our Naturalization law to Mongolians The statute now covers "free white persons, natives of Africa and persons of African descent." We owe this jumble to the Californians themselves, who in 1 87 0 defeated Charles vSumnor'B effort to strike out the word "white". To gain their point in excluding Orientals and to gratify his desire to admit negroes of every degree, they gave us a law which for folly and incongruity Is almost witout precedent. The blacks of the Dark Continent and all their descendants anywhere on earth may become citizens, hut Chines* and Japanese are barred. While some of the lower courts have sustained this interpretation of the law, the question has never yet been passed upon by the Supreme Court. It Is to thtH tribunal that Japan itself now contemplates an appeal. Probably it is to this proceeding that President Wilson refers when ho speaks of "bringing on what might bo long and delicate litigation." No matter -what the result of such a suit might bo , the controversy would hardly end with tho court's Judgment. After that wo should hare agitation and legislation nnd exceedingly troublesome diplomacy. Instead of a little Japanese question we ehould have a big one. The sleepings dogs of race prejudice which the demagoguee would not let lie would be awake for a generation to com*. ? 1)11. J. MARION HIM54. Monument in New York in Honor of South Carolinian. In Hryant Park, Now York, there is a monument, said to ho tho first erected to the memory of a physician in America, and one of the few existing in the world. This memorial bears the name of J. Marlon Sims, of South Carolina, a graduate of tho Medical College of South Carolina, ? ini^ii iiini11ui ion, i roin na aerit in Charleston, has Rent out many great and eminent doctors who made themselves distinguished in their profession throughout the entire country. The inscription on this monument is "J. Marion Sims, M. T)., IyHD., Pounder of the Woman's Hospital of the State of New York." His brilliant. achievements carried the fame of American surgery throughout the civilized world. In recognition of his services in the cause of Rcienco and mankind, ho received the highest honors in the gtft of his countrymen and decorations from tho Governments of France, Fortugal, Spain, Iiolgium and Italy.

Cause of Disease uml Death is Pointed Out, uiul the Iiii|K>rtancc of HeKiNtratlon is Shown.?Tuberculosis Ls oil the Decline, llut Suicide is on the Increase. In a bulletin made public by Director IJurand, Bureau of the Census, Department of Commerce, regarding the causes of death for the registration area of the United ritaUs for 11)11 the total number of deaths from all forms of tuberculosis during Mio year is given as 9 4,20.'), the death rate from this disease being 168.9 per 100,000. This death rate of previous years 100.3 being the rate for 1910 and 160.8 for 1908. The death rate for the past three years litis been considerably lower than those of the preceding live years. On the other hand the. statistics show a marked increase in the number of suicides and in the number of deaths by violence. On tho subject of suicides and other deaths the report reads: Tho total number of deaths from suicido in the registration area for 1911 was 9,G22, an increase of 1,03 2 over tho preceding year. The death rate, however, increased only 16 to 16.2 per 100^)00 and was lower than that for 1909, 16.5; for 1 908, 17.8. Thero is a tendency to apparent increaso In the death rate from suicido. The death rate of the white population in the registration area from suicide, 16.5, was higher than that of tho colored population, 10.3. Among tho registration states, the h 1 (i-lioat ilnotli r-.. " ...n..v ..v uvuvu 1 nt^o i 1 wiii una Lillian wore iii California, 30.1; Montana, 2 7.8; Colorado, 21.7; Washington, 27.7; and Vermont, 20.1, and among tho cities of 100,000 population and over San Francisco, 39.4; St. Ixnils, 37.7; Los Angeles, 37.2; Denver, 3 5.6; and Oakland, 35.1. Of tho total number of deaths in the registration area in 1911 classilied as violent deaths (excluding suicide) 54,028, moro than nine-tenths, 50,121, were of an accidental or underlined character, the remainder Ims ing due to homicide. The death rate from accidental and unspecified violence as 84.6 per 100,000 i>opulation which is slightly higher than the rate for the preceding year, 84.3; but lower than the average for the consecutive periods 1901 to 1 905, 84.9; and 1 905 to 1910, 86. Homicide was reported as the cause of 3,907 deaths in 1911, tho rate being 6.6 per 100,000 population. The cities of 100,000 population and over having the highest rates were Memphis, 191.7; Scranton, 177.3; Birmingham, 151.9; Albany, 131, and Boston, 125.3. Following is tho report on tuberculosis; "The total number of deaths from all forms of tuberculosis in the registration area during 1911 was 9 4,205, tho death rate being 158.9 per 100,000?slightly lower than the rates for the preceding years, 160.3 and 160.8 for 19 10 and 1 909, respectively. The rates for tho past three years are considerably lower than tho annual averages for tho quinquenial periods 19.01 to 1 905. 1 92.6 and 1 906, 1 68.7. There would appear to bo a marked reduction in the death rate from this disease, although the rate for tho past three years has remained practically unchanged. "The highest death rates from all forms of tuberculosis shown for the States in the resigration area were those of Kentucky, 229.3; Colorado, 218; California, 2 06.8; Maryland, 203.3 and tho lowest rates were those of Utah, 46.8; Michigan, 96; Wisconsin, 103.8; Washington, 106.7; aad Montana, 107.1. The high death rate for the group of North Carolina municipalities, 256.8 per 100,000 was due to the urban conditions and the large colored population. ' The cities of 100,000 population 1 and over in 1910 having the highest 1 death rates from tuberculosis of all forms were Denver, 292.7; I^os Angeles, 2 7 7.5; Albany, 269.4; Cincin- 1 nati, 265.3; and New Orleans, 260.5; whilo those with the lowest rates 1 were Milwaukee, 106.5; Portland, Ore., 106.8; 109.4; Grand Rapids 110.3; and Scranton, 112.7." I Reports on various other causes of death are given, including scarlet i fever, 5,243 death or 8.8 per 100,- ? 000 population; typhlod fever, 12,- I n>i ooat.ns or a rate of 21; measles, i 5,922 deaths given a rate of 10; | whooping cough, 6,682 deaths or a i rate of 11.3; diphtheria, with a rate of 18.9 per 1 00,000 population; can- < cer, 44,024 deaths; a rate of 74.3; infantile paralysis, a death rate of 1.8; pneumonia, with 79,233 deaths a rate of 133.7, and heart disease with 83,525 deaths and a rate of 140.9. President Wilson has defeated President Taft's plan to keep Republicans in fourth class post offices by setting aside the order putting them under civil service rules. These offices will foe filled by competitive examinations and then put under the civil service rules. \ and loved ones should be proi aches and pains by always ha NOAH'S LIN1MKNT?the Eh NOAH'S LINIMENT is fo external application.

If all the reports from Charleston about the late congressional election down there are true, the light of Mayor Grace, who supported Hughes, H against Whaley is a clear case of ket- EE tlo calling pot black, and is not likely to have much weight with Congress, rrj The fight 011 Whaley is being made 011 j the ground that he bought the elec- 1 Hon. His sworn statement shows ? that he spent loss than live thousand -V dollars on both primaries. In dis cussing the charges of Grace against * Whaley, The Greenville Piedmont 1 says: ^ "While we have nothing whatever j 111 fll,? utin Mil flf n# ? I". ... .... UI.U|.V Ul |M UVI| Wl tin; Vllill ) if. has been cluimod that all hands 1 spoilt money freely in tho recent ? light. The friends of Hughes are said to have been Just as free in Its * use as the friends of Whaley. As ^ Mayor Graco was one of Hughes' __ most enthusiastic supporters, indeed j,^ one of his leaders in the light If we j have been correctly informed, he I must have been aware of the fact c that during the campaign that money 2 was being spent freely for Hughes as ~ well as for Whaley. So far as we have heard, Mayor rlrace made no protest against money being spent in ' behalf of Hughes and if Hughes had 1 been elected, we suppose he would TT I have been satisfied. ( "Hut alas! Hughes was not elect- c ed. The voters of the district by sev- I oral hundred majority declared for 1 Whaley. And now it Is said (Mayor f Grace is planning to contest the olec- ? tion and report has it that the grounds of the contest will be that ( money was used too freely in the t campaign. It ill becomes the man. > Tho use of money in any election is ( wrong and Is to be condemned. Any 1 movement looking to tho abolition of ? the practice is to be encouraged. Hut one should first be suro that the f movement is initiated by one that is I sincere. If Mayor Grace really * wishes to stamp out the practice of 1 spending money on elections in Char- ' lest on and tho first district, he should ^ head a popular movement to that end r and he would without doubt have the j support of the better class of people ( in nis city and district. j "If, however, he does not desire so c much to stamp out the practice of t spending money on elections so much as to unseat Whaley then hie course deserves the condemnation of the ^ public and will undobuetdly receive S1 it. The puibllc likes a good lighter c but It does not like a fighter that ' ''squeals" when he loses. We have 1 no idea tha<t anything will come out 1~~ of the protest of Mayor Grace insofar n as the seating of Whaley la concern- ^ ed. It may, however, load to a fight, s whether Mayor Grace so desires it or t; not, to stamp out the corrupt prac- ? tices in Charleston elections. If so, it W will have 'brought about a good re- f suit." F fl v Rev. J. L. Harley is reported to have said in a speech at Sumter Wed- Sm nesday night "that the 'whiskey t< trust' has secret agents in every dry a county in the South.

Also registering ignor- .y ant foreigners for the same purpose." \ If there is such a man in Orangeburg h County he should be jailed at once. b ? ? ?
