Ib Eesponsible to the People for His Course "and Not to Any Individual." OFFERS TILLMAN CHANGE TO RESIGN UNCONDITIONALLY TILLMAN IN INTERVIEW SPEAKS CHARACTERISTICALLY OP THE GOVERNOR'S LETTER AND RE FLECTS ON HIS MOTIVES. Columbia, June 5. Governor Mc Sweeney has written a caustic reply to Senator Tillman's recent letter in re gard to the governor's refusal to accept the senatorial resignations. He eays the most charitable construction he can put on Tillman's letter is that Tillman wrote it in a passion. He recites that the course he took was for the best in terests of the people, and that he is re sponsible to them alone, and that he believes the majority of the citizens approve his course. He declares he does not consider them "unthinking citizens," but men fully aware of their rights, duties and responsibilities. He asserts that Tillman's insinuation that he (the governor) had been importuned to await the convenience of the would be aspirants not just ready to enter the contest was unworthy a man holding the commission Tillman does and de serves no notice. He declares he is re sponsible for his reply and will give ac count of his course to the people and not to any individual. He says with due respect for Tillman's opinions, he thinks -he has as high a conception of the office of senator as Tillman or any citizen in the State. The trprnar closes by telling Till man that If "he still wishes to resign ana win jfend an .unconditional resig nation he' will exercise the authority and power vested in him. Tillman "was interviewed this even ing. He said the governor's letter was undeserving of a reply and declared that the future would reveal whether or not there had been a dicker between the governor and "these fellows." TILLMAN WITHDRAWS HIS RESIGNATION. Columbia, S. C, June 5. Senator Tin-man toniarht sent a letter to the governor withdrawing his resignation He says the governor's refusal to ac cept the resignation and SMcLaurin's withrfl-wal leaves ihim the alterna tives of appealing to the democratic ex ecutive committee to take the matter im -nrc ,riftermine what the 'best in- tarosc nf t,h nnrtv reouire. or aDTeal ms " . , , V; . resignation from that body to take ef fect in the future is binding, or with- - . t ; : 4.2 Uft jHa. 'despicable attitude" assumed by Mc Laurin- and forced on him, (Tillman) . Tillman reiterates that the governor exceeded his authority, and says that be chiefly regrets that he is forced by the governor's action to engage in what the outside world will consider a game of "opera bouffe" by his withdrawal of resignation after "McLaurin's undig nified and puerile action." He adds, "Bob Acres has been outdone for once," and says nothing is left him but to withdraw his resignation if it is law ful to do so. Tonight Senator Mcljaurin discussed the situation. He was extremely bitter on. Tillman's conduct toward him. He said if Tillman would make hi resig nation unconditional he would resign unconditionally. Columbia, June 5, Tillman In an in terview says if McLaurin did not have the backing of a republican senate he would contest the matter in the senate.

POWERFUL STRUCTURAL WORK OF THE AUDITORIUM Editor of the Gazette: I see articles in the Citizen as long as the moral law concerning Mr. J. M. "Westall's auditorium building job as far as he has gone with it. If the Citizen will put on glasses it will find the walls, where the bearings are, about four feet thick and if it could read plans it would find all the weight of roof and interior constructed on the inside, rest ing on pillars, iron posts, etc., so it would stand if the wall was knocked out. Now In behalf of Mr. "Westall I worked as foreman for him eight years and I know he would not take a job, nor do a job that was not afe. He is an expert builder and I know that he is satisfied with the walls, or he would not put them up. He 'has one of the best stone masons in Asheville doing the work on the walls, and an architect and superintending architect, a first- class foreman and a building commit tee luave -accepted and approved the plans.
