Senator Tillman Returns Home From Washington
Senator Tillman arrived in Columbia from Washington last Friday and soon visited De Moore’s dental rooms and Dr. Babcock’s home before staying in Trenton. He plans a ten day stay and will return to Washington to resume work, saying the railroad rate bill is imperfect but a necessary start. He favors a larger board for the railroad commissioners and intends to comment on Barnes’ appointment. He emphasized duty to his constituents over campaign rhetoric, noted unlikely Congress adjournment before July 4, and praised Mr Chandler’s courage amid the dispute with the President. He spoke of political tensions with President Taft and Senator Bailey, concluding with thanks to the Democratic Convention.
