DEFENSE OF DIsFRANcHIsEMENT.
Mr.. Williams Declares That Such Ac-
ton Was Necessary in the South.


In the House yesterday afternoon, dur
ing the debate on the Indian bill, Mr.. Lin
ney On. O. depIecatc the discussion of the
policy Of the administration toward the
Philippines.
"You 'cussad US cut, he continued turn
ing toward the democratic side because
we did not jump into the war before we
did"
I'VE forced you into the war;" inter
posed Mr. Gaines (Tenn.).
Yes, you made declare war and now
YOU are 'cussing us because we did better
than YOU thought we would" Uaugnter.)
Mr.. Linney proceeded, directing his atten-
| ton to elections and lynching in the south.
The lack of free elections, he said, was
the only infirmity in our governmental sys-
TEN. in exact proportions as people were
deprived OF their votes, he said, lynchings
and assassinations were prevalent Since
1891 there had been an average of 14O
lynchings each year in the south.
Mr.. White IN. c., the only colored repre-
sentative in the House. said: II have in
vestigated the lynchings in the south and
| find that less than 10 per cent of them are
due to the crime of rape. And desire to
| announce here that If it were not for the
assaults of white men upon black women
| there would be less Of the other class
The public galleries contained many col
ored people, who appauded this utterance
vigorously.
Mr. Williams (Miss.) made warm de-
| Tense of the action of certain southern
states in DISTINGUISHING the ignorant and
illiterate. He declared those states were
preventing the submergence Of civilization.
| He stated upon his honor that since 1875
| no man had been defeated in office ty
fraud or force.
| He frankly avowed that Mississippi had
| sought by her constitution to suppress the
| ignorant and illiterate, and the supreme
court had sustained the eonstitutionality of
| her constitution. In Mississippi said he.
| the law had been violated by murder, arson
| and rape but no man had ever been shot
| down because he wanted to work.
Mr. Cochran (Mo) closed the debate for
! the day with speech against the eXpan-
| sion policy of the administration. 1t was
| agreed to close the general debate at 4
| O'Clock tomorrow.
| The House, at $50 pm, adjourned.

THE BATTLE OF sPION Kop.
Winston Churchill Gives n Graphic.
Account of Fight.

Winston Spencer Churchill has cabloa.
and the Evening World copyrights an ac-
count of the battle of Spion Kop. The dis
patch, which is dated Spearman's Camp
January "a says the fight on the summit
of the kop was one of the most fierce and
furious conflicts in British military history.
Guided by Thorneycroft, the troops sur
prised the Beers there and carried the
trenches with the bayonet at 3 O'clock in
the morning. There was little loss
AT once the troops intenched hastily. but
the ground was broken by large rocks and
unsufted for intrenchments. At dawn heavy
Boer Smelling began. Gen. Woodgate WIS
seriously wounded at the beginning.
Urgent demands for reinforcenents were
sent by the commander who succeeded
Woodgate. The reinforcements were sent.
rengIhening the defense. Thorneycroft
was appointed brigadier. commanding the
whole force on top of the hill. A bitter and
DAY, the Beers concentrating every man
and gun on the summit of the hill and at
lacking with the greatest spirit.
Boer Artillery Superior to British.
The British artillery was unable 10 cope
with the superior long-range Boer guns.
and during the afternoon 1t became evident
the infantry could not endure another day.
1t was impossible to drag guns to the sum-
init of Spion without elaborate prepare Ions
o.. to fortify the hill strongly enough IL
protect the defenders from unassailed ar
tillery.
Therefore Thorneycroft's decision TO
abandon it was both wise and necessary.
The troops, still stubborn and formidable,
marched back to the camps In regular or
der Every effort is now being made To
succor the wounded, of whom many still lie
on the summit. The official lists Will give
the losses. The defense of the hill by the
English infantry, particularly the Lanca-
shire regiments, was a glorious episode.
The whole army is proud of it.
The Boer positions before Ladysmith are
perhaps impregnable to 5000 men, but the
troops are resolved to have another try at
them. The public must initiate the equa-
nimity of the troops.
Says 1t Was Not n Disaster.
Spion Kop is not a disaster. Neither
guns were lost nor unwounded prisoners
made. 1t was simply bloody action, in
which Judgment in the enemy's intrench-
ments was effected, but which proved I'M
tenable.
The Beers were sometimes within thirty
yards of the British line They have also
suffered. Their loss must be greater. conn
pared to their strength than ours.
The process of attrition must ultimately
settle the war. The British troops bear
the worst cheerfully. and the nation must
remain calm. dignified and determined.

Mothers advice Is worth more than
the advice of any other woman to the
daughter who Is perplexed by the prob
lens of physical health and comfort.
There's no need therefore to "write to a
spomdn," who is stranger.
There may, however, be need for a
physicians advice to supplement the ad-
vice of the mother. In such a case the
offer of free consultation by letter, made
by DIR. Pierce, opens the way to health,
and at the same time avoids the un.
pleasant questionings, the repulsive ex-
aminations and offensive local treatments
which less experienced physicians often
insist on.
Any sick or ailing woman is invited to
write to DIR. Pierce, Buffalo, In the strict.
est privacy. Each letter Is held as q
sacred confidence and its answer Is sent
in a plain envelope, bearing no printing
upon il.
Do not be misled by advertisements
offering "mcdical advice" which are
published by those who not being ply
sicians are not qualified to give such adj
vice. Any physician or doctor who has
legal and professional right to the title
will publicly claim that title. Those
who offer medical advice" and invite
you to write To a woman" do not claim
that the woman is doctor. The "medi-
cal advice" of an unprofessional woman
is just as dangerous as the medical
advice" of an unprofessional man.. In
more than thirty years DIR. Pierce and his
staff of nearly a score of medical special
lists, have successfully treated over half a
million women. You can write without
fear as without fee to Or. r. v. Pierce,
