VT MI TILLMAN ON T1111 DEMOCRACY. lie Thinks lteorganiziton Not Needcd-Gives His Idea of the Party's ruture. In reply to an irquiry from the Cosmographic company of Now York, the following statement has been made by Senator Tillainn concerning the proposed reorganisztion of the Demo cratic party : I have your letter of recant date, in which you ask : " What is the future of 1he iemocratic party ? Must it be recast upon new lines or return to the original oncs? Where shall the re o(r!anization begin, etc ?" T nc smoke of the recent political battle has hardly cleared away or suf licient time been given to study the full returns of the election. FNough Is known to show that the Democratic party is not dead, nor is it about to die. McKiniey's election is attributed to two cauos ; venality anti ignorance. Under the first head would be em braced use of money lavishly to con trol votes ; the love of money above principle or -patriotism, andl the co econ of vowers " bo wvere afraid of a re turn of har1 tijr'm and loss of work. Under the ,ec'ond, head would be0 em oracca ab la''.ge man 'of ignorant for eigner's whoi have not be'en assimilated or. becomo A mereianed, who are ignorant ol ou' 'n'it'tions and are more or les ,rIlaeunced by the ideas they brought with the:m from the old world. A large number of busines men who thought prosperity was the result of NieKinley's election, and who dreaded a panIc if Bryan was elected. Tneso were content to let well enough alone, having an eye solely to the busi ness aspect, rather than the underlying princIples involved in the contest. Trhey were ignorant and too cowarcly, rather than venal. T1he D).mocratic party does not need reo)rganization. it can not be attempt ed until the next national convention Ic held and the most plt&able sight to a sielf-respecting man Is the rush which has been made by the traitors who brought the party nigh unto death In 1890~ to resume control. Trhe tIght to restor3 the republic to the principles of the fathers and to stand by the constitutlon which they framed, must go right along the lines formulated at Kansas City. " Noth ing is ever settled until it, Is settled right." The Bryan Democracy, as it has been termed in derision, will eithe1 triump~h in the end or the rep~ublic is dcomed. Like Nelson at Trafalgar, let us nail the colors to the mast and light until victory is ours. We can not atford to despair of the republic andl the trouble of the ImperIalists has just, begun. Their program Involves the continuation of high taxes, a large standing army, and the guarantee that prosperIty will he maintained for four years. The people will grow restless and tired of the two first, and common sense teaches that the vaunted pros priety which appears to have con trollee the result of the election can not last. If we fight as a party brave ly and stand by our principles un Ilinchingly thcre is everything to make us hopeful of the future. Yours truly, B. U.. ILLAMAN. Trenton, S.

It is unfit for food and it was learned by accident that, the milky juice would coagulate in boiling water and would harden on cooling into any shape desired. Tests arc being made with tis substance in London to see if it can be used as a substitute for gutta percha, the supply of which is growing scarce though the demand Is Increasing. -As a result of the discovery of a process for reducing cotton seed hulls to a pulp ten mills for the manufacture of paper from this pulp will be estab lished in different States in the South. The character of paper made will be the finest grades of writing paper and the price will be about one-half of the present price. In addition to securing paper at cheaper prices the cotton farmers wIll be benelited by this new demand for cotton seed. It Is under stood that the Standard Oil Company Is interested in this new process of making paper and in the establishment of these paper mills. -Eugene A.

Gov. M. B. McSweeney, Columbia, S. C. My Dear Sir I am in receipt of youe circular letter of the 1st inst., directed to me as mayor, enclosing a sheet of interrogations as to the stand ing of this muntcipality on the dispen sary law. I have answered these ques tions upon the sheet and herewith beg to return same to you. And, in addi Lion, at your inviation, I take pleasure ia giving you a few of my views on both tbe enforcement ar.d betterment of this law. D)uring my entire term of ollice our council has been very faith ful in enforcing the dispensary law, and I think that what we have done will compare favorably with the action of any town ini the State, In the hand ling of this dillicult problem, and it is our intention to keep this up. We have also endeavored to insist upon the dispensary itself being run accord ing to law. In the way of suggestions, I think that it would be a matter of vital Im portance If the law could be amended so as to require each purchaser of the intoxicant to certify as to whether he was buying it for himself or not, and if for another, to be compelled to Inform the dispenser for whom bought. This would do away, to a large extent, with tbe ability of drunkards and minors to obtain intoxicants, as they do now. T'his occurs to me to be a very Impor tant feature, and .If the law Is so amended that a dispenser would not furnish liquor being bought for drunkards or minors, of course the parties should be punish e4 for any misrepresentation of this fact. My understanding of the dispensary law Is that It should curtail as far as possible all the evils of drink ing intoxicants Instead of encouraging it, and to this end I am ready with all of my energy to lend my aid. As you doubtless know, I am a Pro hibitionist, but I am as heartily in favor of enforcing the dispensary law as I am of any law upon the statute books, and as long as it remains a law I shall do all I can to carry It out. I realize fully that it is not an easy prob lem to handle, and that it is the duty of every law abiding citizen to lend his aid and Influence toward the enforce ment of the law as passed by the L3gis lature. You can depend upon my best efforts and hearty co-operation in the enforcement of law and order. Trusting that you may be gulded In devising wise ways for bettering and controlling this problem, I am, very truly yours, W ADDY C. TIHJOUfSON, Mayor. --It Is stated that the first Anglo Saxon to enter the Forbidden City at Pekin was Mr. Henry Savage Lander, with whose remarkable adventures in Tibet a few years back the world has been made familiar.
