European power had for several
years been playing second fiddle TO
Uncle Sam. III
Referring to the Cuban and
Porto Rican governments since
under direction Of the Republican
administration Of the United
States. Senator Money delivered .
scathing rebuke Of President Nc
Kinley's oppointees. Thieves,
Political pirates, I ''carpetbag-
GERS" and "swindlers' are some
Of the names by which he designa-
tod them.
The fact that the President had
SO suddenly changed his mind On
the Porto Rican tariff question was
sufficient evidence that otker IN
fluences had been brought to bear
upon the Republican party and
that it had consented to rob the
poor people Of Porto Rico for the
benefit of trusts who are furnish.
ing the money for the Republican
campaign this year.
Regarding Chairman Hanna's
recent declaration that there are
no trusts in this country, Senator
Money mentioned Mr.. Hanna's
speeches, two years ago, when that
gentleman declared that there were
sgood trusts and bad trusts. ''The
good trusts" said Senator Money
1from Mr.. Hanna's poinkof reason
inc. are those that contribute liber'
ally to the Republican campaign
fund; the bad trusts are those which
refuse to contribute anything"
Senator Moneys speech was
masterful argument, full of elo
: ouent language and undeniabl
fact. He held the audience TO
, more than two hours and wa
cheered to the echo by the hun
, dreds present who would have re
d manned in their seats all night ha

war for humanity; to liberate the
struggling citizens Of Cuba from
the yoke Of Spain and make OF
them free people" II
Senator Money said that even
then, while in conference with
other members of the Senate Com
mlttee on foreign relations, that
he questioned the sincerity OF the
movement. 81 was asked il ! had
no confidence in the American peo-
pie, and retaliated by saying that
/ had more confidence in the
American people than / had in the
United States Senate" !"
'sThey tell us that we want to
expand ourreligion; build churches
and schools and preach the gospel
to heathens. Now / want to tell
YOU that the people OF Luzon,
Philippine Islands, are not heath
ems; that they are not barbarians.
Schools and churches are even
more numerous there than in
many portions of the United
States. True, they are Catholics
but Catholics are as good as
Methodists, and ! am q member OF
a protestant church.
"When the United States had
entered into compact with Agui-
naldo and the PHILIPPINE Congress
was assembled to ratity that ac-
tion, there was, in that body, more
college-bred men than were ever
before assembled in any Congress,
iD any country"
The speaker declared that the
men who had betrayed their owl
country and were fighting now q
allies of the United States wer'
the heathens and that the citizen'
Iof Luzon-the targets for tn
forces under command Of the UNI
tied States, the intelligent, Chris
tian citizens.
"If l were q Filipino, 4 he said
81 would fight too"
Speaking Of '.trade expansion
Senator Money said that il was
! mistake that trade followed th
flae-that it followed the pric'
list. To snbstantiate this assel
ton, he said that for more this
. sixty years Great Britain was t

Senator McLaurin and other lead
ing Democrats that the question OF
imperialism is the most momentous
problem which we haye had before
us for our consideration IN many
wears. There is no middle ground,
and these who are not for us are
against us in this campaign.

Texas Suffers from Heavy Rains.

Dallas, Tex, Sept. The elect
rical storm that passed over the
cotton section of this State shows
that great damage was done to the
crop. The Trinity river is driv-
ing farmers and stock to higher
ground and destroying the staple
in the fields. Houses have floated
away and the loss of life will num-

The Bryan, Stevenson and
Henry Democratic Club was treat
ed to genuine feast of intellectu-
ality on last Thursday night when
1t was addressed by United States
Senator's fernando DeSoto Money
and Anselln }. McLaurin.
1t has been a long time since
such speeches were made in Green
vile and the Democrat who did
not attend the meeting does not
know what he lost by not being
present.
The audience which greeted these
distinguished Mississipplaus was
an exceedingly large one, the large

Hon. l.. Pink Smith, chairman
Of the Club, called the meeting to
order and made splendid open
ing address, urging every Demo
crat to vote In the November cleo
ton, and extending q cordial well
come on behalf of the Club to its
distinguished guests.
Senator-elect McLaurin was in
troduced by Mr.. H. c. Watson, in
a graceful and eloquent manner, as
a man who had, ''like Andrew
jackson, rewarded his friends anc
punished his enemies. s
The remark was enthusiastically
applauded, but the cheering closed
when the Speaker moved toward

says, this evening, that a great

CANAL uLTImATUm.
Mckinley Is Likely to Send one to
Great Britain.

Washington, Dec. ia rep
ublican United States senator
says he is satisfied the president
would accept the amended Hay
Pauncefo9e treaty and offer it to
Great Britain asDthis 'country's
last word on the subject of an
interoceauic canal.
If this statement accurately
describes the presidents mind
it is the announcement of a re-
cessien on the part of the ad-
ministration- from the position
taken last winter, and which was
that England was right in insist
ing upon a neutralized canal, free
to all nations, in peace and war,
and not to be utilized oy the
United States to it's own advan.
tages In time of war.
There is no doubt that the
state department does not agree
with the president, who, pres
umably, has become. impressed
by the strong feeling of dissatis-
faction existing in the senate at
the Hay-Pauncefote treaty as
negotiated. There Is no doubt
that majority of the senate is
opposed to the original treaty
and desires the Davis amend
ment incorporated in it.
There is also a strong element
in the senate; democratic chiefly,
which is against any treaty, and
which believes that the United
States should formally abrogate
the Clay ton Bulwer treaty by
either passing the Hepburn
canal bill, which provides for
preferences, or by formally de-
nouncing the treaty.

English papers say that the report
that Sir Redvers Butler has been Of

be accepted with great caution. In the

next year, and, moreover, it is said
that Sir Redvers will refuse nothing
that may be offered to him. That his
name will be included in the list is
considered to be practically certain.

There is no doubt that most chain
breakages occur through the rider
plugging along after the chain has be-
come as rigid as a bar of iron, owing
to being stretched so tightly over the
cog wheels. The remedy is simple, so
simple you wonder you never tried it
before, viz, to slacken the chain con-
siderably when on a muddy ride. OF
