David B. Hill has made the big
speech on the tariff question in the
Senate of the U. S.. which he has
long been promising the country
and the Democrats throughout the
land are disguised with him and his
strange utterances. He has his re
ward, however. 1t was so satisfac
tory to the protectionists that the
Republican leader of the n. Y. State
Senate got that body to pass a resolu-
tion thanking him for it and Senator
Hoar has echoed the Republican
plaudit by reading the resolutions in
the United States Senate Recalling
his famous utterance in connection
Herewith, 81 am Democrat" it
looks as if, like another, ''who was a
better Democrat than Ben Hill he
might be like he was when he uttered
it, we'll on his way to the Republican
camp. The speech consisted mainly
of denunciation of the income tax
feature of the Wilson bill and of 4
criticism of the administration The
tariff bill is not at all to his taste and
his speech seems to indicate that he
would not support it. The represen-
tatives from Virginia are outspolen
in their criticism of it. Hon. W A J Jones
says: 1T will take more than the 4 am
q Democrat declaration with which
Senator Hill has been wont TO de
corate himself in the past to make
honest tariff-reformers believe in his
Democracy hereafter. His declara
ton that he will defeat if possible
all tariff legislation unless tie in
come-taX feature of the bill now un-
der consideration in the Senate is
eliminated shows the true quality
of his Democracy. | am not pre-
pared TO credit the story the next
Republican ticket will be Mckinley
and Hill, but am quite sure the one
stands as good show as the other.

Mr. John B. Danforth returned from
their trip over the oyster waters OF
the Commonwealth yesterday after
noon.
The Governor said last night, il
conversation with Il Dispatch report
err, that his main object in making the
trip was to acQuaint himself with the
situation, see what was necessary, il

between Virginia and Maryland, sc
that he might discuss intelligently
any question affecting the oyster in
terest that might arise in future, and
to investigate the complaints against
Captain Read that had been lodged
with the Board by the citizens OF
Tangier Island.
He was satisfied, he said, that the
captures by Captain Hudgins in Feb
ruary of Maryland dredgers were
made in Virginia waters, but he did
not desire TO talk on that subject, as
the whole matter was to be investi-
gated by committees of the Virginia
and Maryland Legislatures acting
Jointly. As 10 the complaints againt
Captain Read he had, he said, heard
both sides, but there had been no
meeting of the board since, and no
decision had been reached.
Continuing, the Governor said the

nation gained. No one could well
estimate the value of the Virginia
oyster interest, he declared. why"
he exclaimed, "if l was called upon
as Governor of Virginia to sign Il
deed conveying old Woman's March
rock | would not think of taking less
than $4,000, 600 for it, and the POGO
moke grounds are much more valu-
able"
The Governor expressed himself as

Island. "These islanders are Il
sensible, prosperous people, =
he said. Their houses are neat and
nicely painted, they are good takers,
there is good hotel on the island,
and the community swearS by Cap

The Governor further said that the
Tangier people were thoroughly sat
istied with the oyster legislation of
the last General Assembly, and were
particularly pl ased with the crab

learned, WAS an immense one. Cap
