A special dispatch from Augusta to
Tho N,Hs and Courier says in an in
totviow there Thur iday night Senator
Tillman paid Q high tribute to Mr.. Mo.
Klnloy as a man. He was, he said,
man Of ability, good husband and an
excellent otizsn. Certainly ho had
achieved tho greatest diplomatic tri-
umphs Of any man who had occupied
the Whito House sinoo tho war.
Gao Of tho group of gentlomen to
whom lie WAS taking expressed tho
hope that he would uso his influence to
tho fullest cxtont in securing tho ex..
pulaion from this country Of all An
archists.
Nov, that's whero you go off half.
oookod, " said tho Senator. How are
you going to tell who aro Anarchists?
If you tako meroly thoso who acknoW-
ledge that they arc Anarchists and are
down as such on tho roster OF the or
CARNATIONS, you get but small por
cent. and who is to say that suoh and
suoh arc hunrchists and mUst bo o4-
pelled? The great difficulty is that
whcp you place any such power in the
hand of any man or any dozen mon,
though they bo the very bost mon that
could be scleoted, at the samo time
you put a weapon in tho hand Of tho
tyrant Of tho future. Whonevor you
break down tho barriers by which the
people protoot thoir libertios you open
tho way TO tho abuao Of power"
Ho qcnt on to say that it was dang ar
Gus to triflo with the principles of
tho oharter wrosted from King
John at Runnymodo. The habeas
corpus could not be suspended with
safety for any great length Of time. He
would be very careful, he said, how he
voted for any legislation oxpolliag the
Anarchists from this country. v
Continuing, tho Senator said that the
race problom WAS the gravost question
which confronted the people Of the
South. Ho did not hesitate 20 toll tho
people OF the North that they were re-;
sponsible for tho conditions whioh pre-
vail in tho South. We Of the South,
he told them. felt q certain sensc Of
gratitude to the negro because Of the
fact that al during the civil war, whe'
the men Of tho Sonthswere away, fight
ing as tho negroes know, for tho con-S
tinustion Of their he1isge, Spisk; th-'
women of the South absolutely
teoted, nobDdy ever heard Of siDl, ),
instance whore the negroes had offered
these womo1i III indignity. It was for
this reason that tho people Of the South.
wore moro indulgent towards the
negroes than were tho people Of the
North. Now, if undor slavery the
negroes were 80 much better than they
arc now, and il tho act Of the people Of
the North WAS productive Of we'll known
| increase in orimo among tho negroes,
whero should the bamo for prosonI
condition rest? Ho always told his
| Northern hearers that they did not be-
lieyc the negro was their equal. They
thought ho wss on social equality with
uo, but their love for him was in pro
portion to tho square of the distance,
and they wore simply hypoorities when
thoy talked about his social and politi.
cal equality.
| 1t IS along this line that ho will talk
in e large measure during his forthc ON,
ing lecture tour Of tho West.
