TiUR h: i >o 131*. PUBLISHEV* TUESDAY AXO FRIDAY. RY Ed. H. DkOamp. like lnlxk, like nepheav.. Jim Tillman is swiftly following in the steps of his illustrious uncle The Washington correspondent of the Philadelphia Record writes us follows: “As President of the South Caro lina Senate Mr. Tillman made a rul ing that a ‘motion to postpone in definitely was not debatable.’ His ruling was questioned, and he re ferred the matter to Senator Frye and SpeaKer Henderson. They decided that he was in error, and that tbe motion is debatable under the ru! s of the Senate. “Instead of accepting the decision ofjthe two referees as conclusive, Mr. Tillman announced to his friends that Senator Frye and Speaker Hen derson had sustained his ruling, hold ing that the motion was not debata- ble. Those in South Carolina who differed with Mr. Tillman on the sub ject wrote to Senator Frye and Speaker Henderson on the subject. “In replying to tire communica tion Senator F?y* reasserted that the motion was debatable, and added Mr. Tillman must have misconstrued the response to his inquiry. “Senator Frye has authorized the publication of the entire correspond ence. and it is now for Mr. Tillman to explain why he did not give out their decision correctly.” Jimmy will explain this little inci dent away all right It will not be difficult for him to do that. He is an adept at that kicd Df business. His uncle Ben once told the writer that Jim was his pupil, or words to that effect, and we need never hope to pin Jimmy down to facts. Men of riouth Caroiinn, how long, oh how long, are you going to put up with braying esses in public lift? jSOl'bS AND COMMENTS. Billy J.

She is going to give up her luxurious apartments on Fifth avetiut and take up her abode in the slums of New Yura. This is Christianity exemplified. How much happier the Christians of the world would be >1 they should follow Miss Gould’s ex ample The jury in the Wilcoxcase brought In a verdict of guilty. The finding of the jury was based on public opinion and not on the facts. We believe Wilcox was guilty, but the State failed to makt out ns case. It were better that ninety and nine guilty ones escape than one innocent be put to death. We hope the law will not bang him until there can be more conclusive evidence of bis gukt. You hear some people say the Bouth is the ei emy of the negro. Of course those people who make such assertions are ignorant of the facts We know some negroes we would trust before we would trust some white people, because the negroes we have In mind will tell you the truth, while the white people we have in mind will tell you a lie. The color of a man’s skin doesn’t affect his charac ter. He may have a black skin and a clean heart, or a white skin and a black heart, but whatever be is, his true character will come to the sur face, and if he is black he will receive due recognition In e\ery way except ing social equality, and that the true negro neither courts nor desires. There is no place in ail this broad land where the negro who deserves it will receive better treatment than right here in the South. r lbe following prices prevail on the G ffnev market today: Good Middling 8 <•> ] Middling .... 8G2i j Dr. Hull’s Cnugli •‘yrup cure* the most stubborn cou.irhs. colds sml lun^ attVciions.
