BEN THLMAN TALKS
ON RECONSTRUCTION.
Fierce DenunciRtion of seYankees,,
ut His Columbus Lecture.

nt HIS Columbus lecture.
Columbus. Ga, Dec. Ex-senator b.
r.. Tillman of South Carolina lectured
in Columbus tonight. Senator Tillman
said, in the beginning, that he had re-
But never paid a cent for all the lies,
Islander and abuse heaped upon him
by certain newspapers
People usually go out to see a man
rather because he's famous or popular,
or has attained notoriety," he said
Most folks come out to see me to
find out what sort of a looking ami
NAL / really am"
He said he had taken advantage of
this advertising to coin a few hun
dreds, or may be a few thousands, on
the lecture platforms, and did not think
1t beneath his dignity. as other sena-
tors make money outside the Senate
chamber.
He gave an impassloned description
of reconstruction days In South Car
DINA, and his audience frequently
burst into applause. He said that
thirty odd years after, when he was in
the United States Senate. what Joy 1t
gave him to tell the Republican side of
that body the plain unvarnished facts
about reconstruction. Plunged it
right up to the hilt. and was glad of
it." he said. "Oh, the Republican hy-
pocrisy in dealing with negroes In Por-
to Rico, compared to their policy at
home.
You have heard about a speech
made last June on this question, when
the Democratic Senator's were said to
have retired to the cloak room to show
their disapproval of what / said. You
Southern people would have gloried
In what L said had you been there. 1t
has been one of the most exquisite
pleasures of my life in lecturing in
the North to tell the plain facts about
the negro and show up the Yankees
hypocrisy on this question"
Discussing the negro question, he
said deportation was not practical, and
1t would bankrupt the white people to
educate the negro and to be good citi-
zens, as was Planned by some. He
thought, however. that as the negroes
acquire more and more book learning
the negro question will arise again
more dangerous than ever. ut Will
hardly come In my generation, but 1t
will come" said he, in conclusion. II
don't know how this negro problem will
be solved, but one thing is as abso-
lutely fixed to me as that to-morroW's

SOME SENATORS OPPOSE
THE CUBAN TREATY.
This Opposition seems LatterIy to
Have Grown.


Washington. Dec. 29.-Considerable
opposition is developing to the ratifi-
cation of the Cuban reciprocity treaty
now pending in the Senate It is not
taking quite the form that the OPP
position to the Cuban legislation took
last spring, but 1t is sufficient in
substance to give concern to the friends
of the treaty.
From time to time as opportunity Of
fers, the President is discussing the
matter with senator's, particularly
those who are known to have objected
to the enactment of legislation extend
ing to the Cuban republic concessions
in the tariff. Several weeks ago It APP
peared that the treaty. when presented
to the Senate, would be ratified with
out difficulty; but some senators are
now taking as strong ground against
the treaty as they took against the
legislation proposed at the last session
of Congress. These senators are of two
classes: those who are opposed on
principle to any tariff tnkering, and
those who represent states whose pro-
ducts may be affected by the cOnces-
sions extended to Cuba by the pending
treaty.
Those of the first class might be in
duced to support the treaty, inasmuch
as ii does not involve. in their view
an attack upon the system of protec-
ton, We're 1t not for their apprehen-
sion that the ratification of the Cuban
treaty may lead to a demand from
other countries that they too be ac-
corded special tariff concessions by the
United States. 1t has been indicated
to the President that in the event of
the ratification of the Cuban treaty,
demand may be expected from Ger
many within 80 days for concessions
similar to those accorded to Cuba
The President, IL is understood, be-
lieves that the pending treaty with
Cuba will be ratified. He desires that
1t should be ratified as promptly as
possible and with as little friction as
may be.
