! SENATOR TILLMAN AND CLEMSON.
f More about Conflicting Jobs and the
I Senator's "Double Calls of Duty".
Here is the view of the Manning
Times regarding Senator Tillman'i
Clemson college trusteeship:
The Kingstree Kecori> is aftei
Senator Tillman for violating the
State constitution by holding mon
than one office, but notwithstanding
the argument the Columbia Stat<
makes 011 the question in its issiu
Monday,we do not believe Tillman '?
trusteeship of Clemson college is lr
/Notation of the law. Mr. Clemson
T.'fore the constitution of 1*95
^ named Tillman as a life trustee, hit
^ acceptance of the trust completed
the transaction.and no law the Stat<
cau make will 'break the trust re
%rpo3ed by the will. Tillman is a law
ful trustee of Clemson, but in qui
opinion he is violating the law a;
trustee of "Winthrop.
The inevitable bgic of that posi
tion as to Clemson college is that th<
fundamental law of South Carolim
is subordinate to the personal wishei
of Mr Clemson at the time of his be
quest; it is, in practical effect, admission
that because Mr Clemson spok(
first, his voice must prevail agaii.si
the letter and spirit of the law of th<
land.
Let us further illustrate, by at:
analogous case, where the reasoning
of Mr Jillman and The Times wil
carrv them. Suppose that ;'befort
" J A *
the constitution of 1S95" was adopt
ed, it had been proposet^to organize
at Pendleton a bank with a hall
million dollars capital, and that Mi
Clemson had agreed to subscribe fifty
thous^n^tlollars to the capita
on condition that Mr Tilluiar
be chosen president for life; su ppos<
the condition was accepted, Mr Till
man elected and, previous to tlx
adoption'of the constitution of 1S95
had accepted the trust. Has the con.
stitution, which declares that no ont
shall hold two offices of honor 01
profit simultaneously, no power t<
make Mr Tillman decide between hit
trust b^nk presidency and his senatorsbip.
It is preposterous to conceive oi
such impotency upon the part of tlx
State.
It is not assumed that the comi
monwealth can enact a law compell
ing any citizen to abandon au offlct
of trust bestowed by some powei
other than the common wealth,but tc
such an office-holder the State car
and does say: "You hold an offic<
y^not given you by the State; here i;
* one given you by the State; you an
forbidden bv the constitution to holt
. but one office at a time. So choos<
between them. If you accept thii
one, the other is, by that act, va
A ted."
But, as we have before suggested
it is the Supreme Court's decree upor
?v^this question which is of real import
ance.?The State.
