TilIman and The Goyern0rship.

Tho Washington correspondent of IT, @
Senator lillman on State politics. Tho
interview includes the following: Refer
ring to the State campaign Senator Till
man says there is going to be Il lively
contest over the Governorship. Governor
McSwccncy WILL Of course, be the lead
rival candidates in the field, and before
the campaign closes there are apt to be
several other aSprants for gubcrnatOral
honorS. The Senator naturally had his
preference, but he discrectly avoids com
hitting himself to any one in a casual
discussion Of the subject. At the proper
time he will declare his choice in unmis-
taxable terms, and his former record
juSiilics the prediction that the Senator
will stick to his man through thick and
thin. The campaign is to be fought out
again with the dispensary law as the
paramount issue. Tillman's faith in the
existing law has not wavcrcd, and he
maintains that the law, if fairly and hon
rstly administered, will DC beneficial to
the state.

to produce n single witness who had

a Washington correspondent notes
that senator Tillman is becoming con-
Spicuous in the Senate for tho frequent
additions he is making to his wardrobe.
When he first came to Washington he
llinchcd at the mere suggestion Of full
dress black broadcloth suit, and he was
content to appear in the Senate chamber
day in and week out attircd in the same
rusty-looking business suit. Now ho
seldom wears tho same suit of clothes
two days in succession, and his wardrobe
also includes, not only the conventional
Prince Albert frock and the dignified
'swallow-tail,' but the 'giddy Tuxedo"
This may help us to understand why the
Senator does not wish to appear before
the "woolhat boys" next summon.
They might not know him all dressed
mp in "digniGcd swallow-tails" and
"giddy TuXcdoS." ."--Thc state.

Porto Rico Must Pay for Admission, Says
Congress-16i For and 1863 Against

WASHINGTON, April 12.-Tho last
act i'll the Porto Rican infamy, 80
far as Congress is concerned, was
enacted by the House this evening,
when the Republican tariff bill was
jammcd through according to pro-
gramme by a vote of 161 to 1863.
The result was expected, but up to
the last the Democrats aud the little
band of Republicans who dared
stand for the right put up the gam
est fight they knew how. The re-
cord has been made up so far as
Congress and the Republican party
are concerned. There only remains
the edifying spectacle of the Prcsi-
dent of the United States stultifying
himself by afiixing his signature to
this tariff bill, when, at the outset,
he told Congress and the people of
the country that it was "our plain
duty" to extend to the people of the
peaceful little islands the blessing of
free trade.
Since the day he sent that famous
and righteous message to Congress
not one word has been heard from
the President to Indicate that he has
changed, nor has there been any
thing, if he has changed, in cxplana-
ton Of his reasons.
lie has allowed himself and his
party to be openly swerved from the
right path by the selfish interests
which own and control the party as
a whole, and he has not had the
nerve nor the manhood to raise his
hands either 10 save the party or to
extend aid and comfort to the people
,, who gladly came under the Amcri,
can flag. 1t is the most disgraccful
picture in modern political history.
