UNITED STATES Senator Tillmap,
of South Carolina, colleague OF Senator
McLaurin, comments vigorously upon
MIR. McLaurin's speech Thursday night
at Charlotte, N. g., In which Mr.. NC
Laurin advised the southern democracy
to break away from the old lines. Mr.
T.llman says: SENATOR McLsurin'f
speech is contradictory, full Of paradox
90 and seems intended to pave the way
for the Senator's passage into the re-
publican camp. 1t may excite surprise
outside of this State, but the only tbipf
which astonishes US here Is his con
tinued effort to pose as a democrat
The attempt to win the southern dem
ocracy over to the advocacy of protec'
ton could not have been undertaken oil
a more unpromisipg time. The drift Of
the republican party itselfis away from
protection. The iron, cotton and oil
producing South needs the open rather
than the shut door. Senator McLaurin
has surely carried his high tariff eggs
to the wrong market; his flop Is FORE
doomed failure. Republican leaders
realize this, but at the same time 1t will
take great many McLaurins to con-
vince them the South lie ripe for turning
q political somersault.

THE proposition Of the British gov
erument to increase its revenue 10 meet
extraordinary requirement by imposlng
duty on sugar must not be considered
an abandonment OF it's fiscal policy. IL
ia not many years since the sugar duties
we're abolished. The enormous con-
sumption Of sugar 10 England makes
that commodity. as it Is in the United
States. one of the most fruitful objects
of customs taxation. This fact has al
ways been recognized by the friends Of
free trade. No discrimination is made
either in favor of the products OF Brit
ish colonies or against the bounty-pay'
inc countries OF Europe. Bounty-fed
beet sugar from the continent will DC
admitted on the same terms ss musco'
yado from the British West Indies or
sseroop" from Java or jsggery from
British India. Nor is there anything 10
the plan that would give comfort to
British refuers. II the proposed Brit
ish sugar duties be protective the cor
responding American tariff taxes are
oppressive to the last degree. The less
nrotectionists shall say about the pro-
posed protective" sugar duties oil
Great Britain the better for their cause;
anylargumen.s based on that foundation
would cut like two-edged sword, and
would prove most perilous to the
wielder thereof. The proposed export
duty OF one shilling per ton on coal
NAV be dismissed with the remark that
it would be the very opposite OF pro-
lection measure; for the theory OF pro-
lection would require the payment oil
boupties rather than the levy OF tax
on exports.

Post, telegrsphing under date Of Thurs
day. say that, In view of the resolution
of the Germans and French to drive
the Chinese troops from Chilli into
Shansi province, Ii Hung Chang me-
morialized the Emperor, with the re-
suit that his Majesty issued en- edict
ordering General Liu to withdraw his
troops over the border.
The Emperor simultaneously tele'
graphed to Ii Hung Chang ipstructing
him to inform the Count Won Waldersee
OF the edict and to request him to send
foreign troops into Shsnsi. Neverthe-
lees, 1t is believed that the Germans and
perhaps the French will occupy Tay.

The correspondent adds that railway
communication between Vlsdivostock
amp Port Arthur Is practically complete
and that Russia Is thus enabled to
throw troops into Manohuria without
using the sea.

craft OF all kinds, thronged with 10.
terested onlookers. Two hundred

AaUINALDo's address to his people
shows that the former leader of the
Filipinos has reached the conclusion
that peace is now the best thing fol
them and that further resistance to the
United States is useless. Had he not been
captured 1t would have taken the Amer
lean forces a longer time than this to
have changed his views 30 as to be-
come an apostle of peace. Now a
prisoner in his own country, his poorly
equipped soldiers opposed by over
whelming odds of trained forces with
modern arms and he betrayed his own
people for gold he has come to the
conclusion that further sacrifice OF
blood is useless and recommends sub
mission. His advice to his former allies
may prove a potent factor in bringing
about the end OF the revolution and the
return of all the beligerents to the pur
suits of peace.
