After expressing some sympathy with
the argument of Mr.. Tillman, Mr..
Clark said:
When the senator from South Caro-
lima charges senators of the republi-
can side of the chamber with hypoc.
risy, it comes in very poor grace fol-
him to declare by Almighty God that
the negroes OF the south should not
vote"
Mr.. Tillman-Such a construction
cannot in fairness be put upon my re-
marks.
Mr.. Clark-Will you say to this sen.
ate that you are not trying in the south
to suppress the negro vote?
Mr.. Tillman with great vehemence)

have done our level best to keep the

1t is said that the British ministry
believes the amount of the debt reduc-
ton by England in the past twenty-one
years will be Offset by the cost of the
present war in South Africa. The eN-
penditure at the present time is at the
rate of about $50, OOO, 900 a month,
which is not far below the highest out
lay of the United States during the war
of secession. Wars are exceedingly
costly enterprises, and the tendency is
toward higher and higher figures in ex-
penditure. OF course a wal like the
one in which England is engaged,
which is carried on several thousand
miles from the home country, is par
ticularly costly. Our own expenditure
in the Philippine trouble was never
nearly so high as England's is at the
present moment in South Africa. The
number of men which We sent across
the water was not as great as hat
which England transported, and the
amount OF munitions Of war which we
have used was nowhere near so great
as that which Great Britain has ex-
pended. The increasing honey cost OF
wars will be n of the influences which
will ultimately force the world to de-
wise some other method of settling in

THE AMERICAN FLAG

The American flag now floats over a
land OF barbarity. If any one had
p~rophesied this four years ago., he
would have been laughed to scorn. Yet
change is constantly taking place. Ma
ture is merciless. So soon as she dis
covers an improvement, the old, what
ever it may be, is doomed. The fact
that Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, the
famous cure for dyspepsia, has remain
ed unchanged for half a century, proves
its value. Try it for Indigestion, bill
iousness, constipation or malaria, few
er and ague, and be convinced. Your
case is not incurable. You simply
have not used the right remedy. Hos
letters Stomach Bitters is what you
need-the sooner the better. It is par
ticularly valuable at this season or the
year.

IN THE HOUSE

Washington, D. c., Feb. 27.-The
general debate on the Porto Rico tariff
Dill closed today in a blaze of glory.
The galleries were banked to the doors
and every seat on the floor was occu-
pied when the rival champions of the
respective sides, Mr.. Dolliver of Iowa
and Mr.. Bailey of Texas made the clos
ing arguments. Each spoke for an
hour and a half. The speech of Mr..
Bailey, devoted, as it was, almost ex-
clusively to the legal phases of the
controversy, while it was profound and
impressive, did not arouse the un-
bounded enthusiasm which swept gal
cries and floors while Mr.. Dolliyer was
speaking. The Iowan was at his best
and his wit, eloquence and sarcasm in
turn drew salvos of applause from his
republican associates. Before the clos
ing speeches were made Mr.. Cannon of
Illinois, chairman of the appropriations
committee and n Of the veterans on
the republican side, made an exception
ally effective speech in support of the
bill,
Messrs. Carmack dem. TENN, Clay
ton (Dem.. Ala.), Kleberg (Dem., Tex),
Pearce and DeArmond (Dem., Mo- had
had also made speeches in opposition
to the bill. The republican managers
are now confident that with the modi-
fcations agreed upon at the conference
last night the bill will command a mar
row majority in the final vote tomor-
row.

they would have proved superior to

HOUSE AND SENATE
QUAY CASE AND HAWAIIAN GOV
EMINENT BILL DISCUSS
ED IN SENATE.
Final Vote Will be Taken on Hawaii
an Bill ?'oday-Debate on the Por-
to Rico Tariff Bill Closed in a
Blaze of Glory-Will Also be Vot-
ed on Today.

Washington, Feb. 27.-Mr. Depew o.
New York addressed the senate today
on the Philippine question. His r
ton was beautiful in thought and die
ton. He strongly upheld the policy OF
the administration and in conclusion
pictured so brilliantly m and
civilization moving hand in hand for
the happiness and uplifting of the peo.
pie of the Philippines as well as those
of this country hat the galleries were
swept by a storm of applause.
After Mr.. Turley had concluded his
speech on the Quay case the Hawaiian
government bill was again taken up,
but little progress was made. An
agreement was reached that a final vote
should be taken on the measure tomor-
row.
Following Mr.. Depew Mr.. Turley
CTenn.) resumed his speech. begun yes
terday, on the case relating to the seat
ing of Mr.. Quay of Pennsylvania.
Mr.. Turley discussed presidents and
maintained that from 1926 to the pres
ent time not one ease could be found
in support, of the contention of Mr..
Quay's supporters.
After Mr.. Teller had made an ex-
PLANTATION of his vote in the Mantle
case and had declared his purpose to
stand by the senate's action in the Cor
bett case. the Quay case was laid
aside.
Mr.. Penrose gave notice that he
would call it up tomorrow and every
legislative day hereafter, his intention
being to give way only to consideration
of the conference report on the fnan-
cial bill, which is privileged.
Consideration of the Hawaiian gov
eminent bill was then resumed. Mr..
Butler On. c. withdrew his postal saw
ings bank amendment.
Mr.. Morgan offered an amendment
providing for the payment by the Uni
ted States of all sums now on deposit
in the Hawaiian postal savings bank.
1t was adopted.
The contract labor question was pre-
cipitated again by Mr.. Pettigrew, who
offered an amendment providing that
all contracts of labor entered into
since August IL, 1898, should be declar-
ed null and void.
In a speech supporting the amend
ment Mr.. Pettigrew asserted that since
the annexation Of Hawaii $1,000 con
tract laborers had been imported to
Hawaii, their contracts extending over
periods of from three to ten years.
In response to questions as to wheth-
er Asiastic contract laborers displace
local laborers, Mr.. Pettigrew replied
that to some extent they did. He went
on to say that the coffee lands of which
we have heard so much practically had
been changed into sugar plantations.
the lands as such being immensely pro-
ductive.
These sugar plantations, he said,
were controlled by vast sugar interests
who, during the past veal had been
paid by this government in RENTED
duties $12, 200 900. These great inter
ests would control the legislature of
Hawaii, and consequently he wanted
such an amendment to the bill as would
meet every contingency.
The amendment was adopted with
out discussion.
