Coeld Ha?e Skinned flio but Decided to LetHia Be i The Augusta Herald of SunLday prints the following: Senator Ben Tillman was in Augusta 3'esterday afternoon. To a reporter of The Herald he gave his opinions of the present occupant of the White House and of our only ex-President. The latter came during the Senator's statement to The Herald representative of the reasons why he had allowed the charges brought against him by President Roosevelt to pass unnoticed except tor the one speech made in the Senate. The Senator also paid his respects to the Democratic Congressmen who went back on the caucus, which action is fresh in the memory of Herald read ers. ' f The Senator's statement anent *-/^m o v/lo P/\AOatTAlf lii& puaiuuu iv p at us nuvo\, vv.iv was carefully worded, and to the point. In this connection the Senator said: "As the time approached for Congress to adjourn, and the opportunity to show Roosevelt | r in his true colors approached I ft- began to seriously consider whether it was worth while. There had been provocation i enough on account of his wanton assault on me, but he was in very bad odor, and very much discredited on account of the action of the House of Representatives and the Senate committee on appropriations, both of which charged him with falsehood. "1 had enough evidence col lected to prove that he was not only a man who had no regard for the truth, but that he was a hypocrite and a coward, and when I could have produced the evidence I knew that a large R number of the American people would charge me with being actuated by malice and a desire for revenge, and therefore my attitude would be discredited while I felt that a great number of the people of the country would be very much mortified to feel that they had elected such a man to the highest office in our gift, and be ashamed of ool Clothes r For summer wear must be R carefully tailored, or they u will lose their shape in E no-time. jfl The making-to-order I of lightweight suits (only H partly-lined to secure greater comfort in hot I weather) is a specialty H I w*th I I The Globe 1 1 j Tailoring | f Company If Of Cincinnati MM they guarantee permanent If shapeliness.

"So I finally decided to let him alone and leave to others the summing up of his actions as President, and his practical failure to accomplish any really valuable thing. He narrowlj escaped, being a very great man, but his want of sincerity and earnestness made him one of the greatest failures who has ever occupied the White House." Cbat from Cades.
