side offered no substitute for this bill
and, having made a reference to
trusts in free trade England, Mr..
Wheeler, KY, interrupted to inquire
whether the assurance which aggre-
gate capital had in this country that
the attorney general would not do his
duty was not responsible for the great
trusts now in existence in the United
States.
Il will allow the gentleman to an
swer his own question" replied Mr..
Payne. 1T is beyond me-"
Mr.. Swanson, Va, in opening de-
clared that none of the benefits for the
Filipinos of which Mr. Payne had been
telling could accrue through the ageH-
cy of the pending bill.
He reviewed the recent decisions or
the Supreme Court in reference to the
Philippines, deploring the fact that the
court had reversed Its previous deciS-
ions and had seen proper to confer up
on Congress absolute power to govern
territories. He deprecated as PERM
ctous the principles of the bill, which
| fixed the tariff duties on goods going
from the United States into the Philip
pines. He said a fit place for such a
bill was in the cortes of Spain and not
in the Congress of the United States.
He pointed out that the President and
the secretary or war favored making
generous concessions in tariff duties on
importations of sugar and tobacco from
Cuba, yet this bill failed to make any
concessions on the same importations
from the Philippines. He said that a
proper solution of the Philippine ques-
ton would be a declaration by Con-
gress that the inhabitants of the ISL
ands should be given independence as
soon as a safe and stable government
could be maintained
Mr. Thayer, Mass. in a 15-minute
speech, explained the reasons which
induced him to oppose the passage of
the bill. He declared that we had over
powered the Filipinos, but had not con-
quered them; that the same spirit of
liberty which led them to rebel against
the tyranny of Spain still animated
them. This bill, which proposed to tax
| them at both ends of the line, would
naturally arouse their resentment.
Tomorrow Mr.. Mccall, a Republican
member of the ways and means COM
mittee from Massachusetts, will OPP
| pose the bill, time having been granted
| him by the Democrats.

Washington, Dec. 1.-THE bill to pro-
vide temporary revenues for the Phil
ippine Islands was debated in the
House today and will be voted on to-
morrow at 4 o'clock. 1t was the first
debate of the session and was con-
Quoted calmly and without display Of
temper. Several lively exchanges and
an impassioned speech by Mr.. De Ar
mond of Missouri, who has just return
ed from a trip to the Philippines, in op-
position to the retention of the islands
were the features.
Mr.. Payne. the floor leader of the
majority opened the debate. Owing
to the indisDosition Of Mr.. Richardson
the duty of opening for the minority
devolVed upon MI. Swanson of Viz
ginia. The other speakers were Mr.,
Grosvenor, Republican, Ohio, and Mr.,
Robertson. Democrat, Louisiana, for
the bill; and Messrs. Shafroth, silver
Colorado, De Almond, Democrat, Mis-
souri,, Mr.. Thayer, Democrat, Massachus-
etts, and Patterson, Democrat, Ten
nessee, against it.
Mr. Paine aroused enthusiasm as he
described the great work of civilization
which was going on along the line of
education. Our friends on the other
side said he, howl about our lmper-
ialistic government of the natives. We
are trying to lift them up to the
standard of American citizenship"
Are you trying to fit them for cit
izenship in the United States CT citizen
ship in the Philippine Islands? asked
Mr.. Gaines, Tenn.
I'VE will cross that bridge when we
come to it," replied Mr.. Payne.
But if you on the other side will CO.
operate with US, we will fit them for
citizenship in the Philippine islands,

I'VE viii cooperate with you" re-
piled Mr.. Gaines, when you carry the
constitution and the flag to the Phil
ippines."
L am surprised observed Mr..
Payne, e" to hear the gentleman from

has just returned from the island. Is
it possible he did not carry the con-
stitution and the flag with him?''

Spy a Tip Where His Products

HIS HEADQUARTERS
Hints of Value Given to Anxious
Shoppers:Where 10 GO,What to
Buy and How to Select Pres
ents For the Old and Young
Who Are to be Remembered

Worcester has donned its Christmas
garb. It's merchants have stocked their
stores until the very walls bulge with
the good things which an indulgent
Santa Claus has provided for the hap
piness of all. Worcester purchasers are
expectant. Suburban purchasers are
anxious. The combination is an exhil-
arating one, and consequently the
Christmas ball is kept merrily rolling
on, while old Kris Kringle winks his
north eye in a mischievous manner and
wears a complacent smile, cut la
Klondike.
All up and down the main thorough
fares of the city, show windows are be-
decked with holly and other evergreens,
while tier upon tier of excellent things
are placed on exhibition. Nor do the
larger stores bear a monopoly of the
good things. Scores upon scores of the
smaller stores are beautifully stocked
and extra help has been drafted
to keep the multitude good natured.
Local merchants have taken time by
the forelock and prepared for the eX-
ira influx of thousands of purchasers
who were not here last year. 1t is gen
orally realized that during the next
few days preceding Christmas, wealth
err conditions proving favorable, that
many thousands of extra dollars will
be left here by out-of-town shoppers
This is made possible by the through
trolley car connections with all parts OF
this big county and the benefit given
by Worcester's street car transfer sys-
tenn All of the lines now deposit theiI
passengers in the centre of the city.
1t is interesting to watch each car
from north, south, east or west draw
up at Harrington Corner and deposit
its hundreds of Christmas shoppers
! These shoppers soon become absorbed
in the moving procession on the side
walks and hundreds make vain en-
deavors to peep into the big show win
dows. They all want to purchase
something; many know not what, MOI
indeed. do they know where to go. A
Spy man who is on intimate terms
with Santa Claus and has been since
he hung up his little stocking way VI
in the Berkshire Hills. has promised the
merry old fellow with snowy beard
to place the visiting pur-
chasers on the right road tC
bargain depots and storehouse'
where the works of Santa's nimblt
fingers can be found. Below is re
suit of a few hours investigation and
there will be more to follow from day
to day.

A London dispatch says:

British army veterans assert that the
British army had grown stale while
only half employed in watching rail
ways and moving across stretches OF
empty country, where the Beers eluded
pursuit and would not stand, but that
it is now again on its mettle when
there is real fighting. Col. Kekewitch
is regarded by South Africans as a Wig
liant officer, with marrow mind and
lack of f1exibility.
While he defended Kimberly success
fully, it was Cecil Rhodes who recruit
ed the volunteer force of colonials and
impaired courage to the people of the
town. Colonel Kekewich did not get on
well with Mr.. Rhodes, who was the
real defender of Kimberley. There is
a story that when General French en-
tered Kimberley, Colonel Kekewich
asked him to put Rhodes under arrest,
but was laughed at. He has been one
of Lord Kitchener's trusted lieutenants,
as an experienced officer who thorough
ly understands Boer tactics.
