Tillman and MeLanrin Meet Here and Talk Over Census Appointments. Tillman and Tobacco. Senators Tillman and McLaurin spent last night in the city. The senior senator, as is his custom. wen1 to the home of Capt. Hunch, while Mr. McLaurin registered at the Columbia. They were found together at tea at Oapt. Hunch's last night. Senator Tillman laughingly said that he thought it strange that he was beset by newspaper mnn punrv limn tin r.ir?w? umbia. His visit has no special jjgnilicanee, ho stated, for ho will leave this morning lor Florence. The object of his visit to that section is to study the culture of tobacco. Senator Tillman and a number of his neighbors at Trenton have clubbed together to experiment with tobacco planting and culture, and he is now looking into the matter for the club. About 50 or 00 acres will be planted this season. When questioned about his < meeting with Mr. McLaurin, Sen i ator Tillman said that it was * merely incidental. Senator Mc 1 Laurin was coming to Col umbia, and they agreed to meet. and discuss the out- 1 look in regard to the ap pointments of census officials. The census taking will not begin ^ until July of next year, but there are even now mauv applicants for these positions. As has already ceen stated there will be six districts, each in charge of a 1 director, and lor every community whose estimated population is 4,000 there will be an enumerator. The census director general, Mr. Merriam, is a Republican. ^ lie will not select his assistants v by civil service examination, but ^ will appoint ''business men." The Democrats of this State de- , J matin some consideration in the . division of "pie," and may be ^ able to pet some of the appoint ments, nlthouph it is stated that Mr. K. A. Webster, the llepubli can prand master of the State, a wants everythinp for his side. Senators Tillman and McLaurin had a meetinp some time sub sequent, to that one which was ( not held at Wright's hotel a few ' weeks ago, when only four of the ' delegation were present. "MeLaurin came to my house and * foundered himself and had such , a case of cramp colic or cholera 1 morbus that we were not able to * discuss the matter at that time." said Senator Tillman. His plan is for the South Oaro | I ? I _ t una i;uu^ii;?niuiiiii uoiug'dliuii in nominate those who are best tit- t te<i for the several places to be r( parcelled out in this State, if ? Director Merriaru sees fit, he can ' 1 appoint the Democratic nominees. The Democrats have no "say so."' They can demand nothing. Senator Tillman's private sec retary, Mr. Staekhouse, has recently recoiveu an appointment as assistant paymaster in the navy. Senator Tillman said last night that hi had promised his son, Mr. B. II.
