SENATOR TILLMAN MAKES A
STATEMENT.
Explains Position of Minority on
philippines and Cuba.
Special to The State.

Special to The State.
Clemson College, March o.
When Senator Tillman, who is
here attending a meeting of the
Clemson board of trustees, was
asked this morning for an inter-
view regarding his attitude in
the senate in reference to the
Cuban, Philippine and Charles
ton exposition matters, he was
disposed to be contemptuous
and Indifferent, saying he was
tired answering the jokes and
attacks of those daily papers
which had always opposed him
and whose stuff the people of
the state seldom regarded Sc
riously. Perhaps the fact that
the man of the pitchforil had
not then breakfasted had some
influence on his naturally gen
tie disposition.
However, after rejecting that
the people Of the state might
want some information, the
senator consented to talk some,
though briefly.
1.-The question of why the
Democratic minority did not
resist the Cuban and Philippine
amendments has been set forth
very clearly in the congressional
record. 1t is not to be Won
dered at that these newspaper
editors have taken the wrong
view, as they depend on the
Associated Press synopsis which
Is very meagre necessarily, and
often colored to suit the Repub-
licans.
sin a consultation among the
Democratic senators there was a
Inference Of opinion as to the ad
disability of filibustering. The
Philippine amendment was al.
cred 10 our satisfaction-as far
as any such scheme could be made
satisfactory-by prohibiting the
ale of land, lumber, mines, ETC.,
md forbidding any permanent
franchises, so that carpet baggers
yho may be sent there 10 ad-

men will be very much ham pered
n their purposes to loot the is
ands.
$50 far as the Cuban amend
nent was concerned, the minority
vas hampered by the fact that
Jur members of that committee,
Iessrs. Money and Teller, and
he latter was the author Of our
Cuban war pledge, has acquiesced
in a large measure with the pro-
posed legislation. They had also
secured a much more moderate
and satisfactory programme than
had originally been proposed by
the Republicans, and while not
entirely satisfactory they assured
us that the Republicans in AM
extra session where they would
have a free hand would be still
more eXacting in their demands
"The Democrats and their allies
among the Populists and Silver
Republicans were, therefore con
fronted with this situations: The
next congress, being overwhelm
lngly Republican, with larger
majOrities in both branches, could
be relied on TO do Mr. McKiuley's
bidding, and in addition to carry
ing out the original programme
In regard to the Philippines and
Cuba, there was almost a certain
ty that it would have passed the
ship subsidy bill. For in addi
tiOn to this protracted filibuster
causing an extra session would
have given them an excuse to
change the rules and provide for
closure. AS it is Senator Platt
has introduced a resolution look
ing to such a change. | think it
won't be carried now, but it
certainly would have succeeded
if we had acted as my critics
desired.

ABOUT BAcKACHE.
The va1ioas Causes Of This very
Common Addiction Call for
Medical Advice.

Pain in the back Is one Of the COM
monest Of the ills affecting humanity,
and at the same time it is often one
Of the most difficult to relieve and the
most puzzGng to trace to its origin
1t is symptom OF many acute dis
eases, such as spinal meningitis.
smallpox, malaria, influenza. and so
forth, but in such cases it is of short
duration and its cause is usually evil
dent. says Youths Companion.
The backache of gladstone, renal
collie, or simple stemach-ache is also
an acute affair, and disappears rapid
ly when the gladstone or kidney
stone is passed, or the fatulence re-
lieved.
1t is different. however, with the
chronic form. which so often defes
all the skill and ingenuity OF the
physician, and exhausts the patience
OF the sufferer with its persistence
and wearying, boring. wrenching
pain.
The conditions which may produce
Gus that mere catalogue of them
would fill the space allotted to this
article. and We can refer only to the
most frequent Of them.
The pain may be due to disease in
the spine itself, in the spinal cord, in
the back muscles. or In the abdominal
cavity. Potts disease Of the spine
(hunchback) and cancer Of the verte-
brae are the most usual affections Of
the spine causing backache.
ANY affection Of the spinal cord
may find its expression in backache,
but the one most commonly response
BILE 10 perhaps locomotor ataxia.
When of muscular origin. pain in the
back is known as lumbago, a disease
which is generally regarded as
rheumatic affection OF the back
muscles.
The discovery of the source of the
pain in these local affections of the
bone. muscle or nervous tissue is
usually not difficult. but the problem
is more intricate when the pain is
merely reflex of some internal dis
order. Often the physician must in
terrogate each interna! organ in turn
before he can locate the starting
point Of his patients suffering.
This is the field in which the quack
reaps his greatest harvest. his ad,
vertisements dilating upon the terri
Bile diseases Of the kidneys or other
organs to which backache surely
points. and which can be relieved only
by his infallible remedy-too often,
alas! containing opium or some other
enslaving drug. These advertise
ments are, of course. gross exaggera-
tions. and the condition is seldom so
serious as the quack would have his
victim believe, yet it is always well
for the sufferer from persistent
backache to consult physician.

Baker has been pretty sick, and kaier
wites that the men are very sorry to have
him leave the regiment because he can
give all the other officers out here cards

show other officers their business, which
goes to show that people who come from

GENERALS HELD UP.
Senators Want 10 Consider Names OF

Washington, February 9.-The Senate

next week to Continue its consideration
of nominations OF Generals Leonard Wood,
Fred ID. Grant and Franklin BELL TO be
brigadiers. The. espscial objection TO
them,is that their nomination Is an in
justice to other officers in the army.
1t is computed by members OF the COM
mittee that in promoting Wood and Bell
as is proposed, they would each be al
vanced over about 1910 officers who now
outrank them. Both are now captains
In the regular establishment, Bell being
this 5s5th OF that rank. 1t is further
stated that in case General Woods's nomi-
nation is confirmed he would stand a
chance of being for fourteen years lieu.
tenant general In the army.
No disposition is manifested to dis
parsge General Woods's services in Cuba,
but the contention 10 made that his re-
ward should not be at the expense of men
who have won their laurels as soldiers.
General Grant Is regarded largely in
the light OF volunteer, and the feeling 10
quite general among members of the
committee that he should not be promot-
ed over SO many officers who have served
continuously in the regular army.
