AGAINST MAJORITY's POLICY.
382 Newbury St.

Republican Leaders Have DishOnor-
cd the Nation, Declared Mr.. Tur-
ner, and Have Struck Liberty the
Worst Blow 1t Has Ever Received
ON the American Continent-Mr.
Patterson Moves for the Repeal

Philippines Placed on Same Basis
as Cuba.
Washington, Dec. 10.-Throughout
nearly the entire session of the Senate
to-day the Philippine Tariff Bill was
under consideration. Mr. Turner
Washington concluded his speech be-
gun last Friday. He devoted his argu-
ment as on the previous day, to dis
cussion of the legal and constitutional
phases of the Philippine question,
holding in the main, that as the Fill
pinos had established an Independent
government in the islands prior to the
fall of Manila, the United States under
the principles of international law had
no right to the islands.
Mr.. Teller (Colorado) took the floor
to deliver speech upon the pending
measure but had scarcely introduced
his argument before he requested that
he be allowed to continue his address
tomorrow. 81 O.
In the course of his speech, Mr.. Tur-
ner exclaimed with great vehemence:
1.-THE leaders of the Republican party
have ldishonered the nation by their
greed for power and spells. They have
done so under the false and 'blasphe-
nous pretense that they were serving
Almighty God by advancing liberty
and religion. Instead Of advancing the
cause of liberty they have struck IL
the worst blow ii has received since IL
first found foothold on the American
continent"
Taking up the sedition Act in the
Philippines, Mr.. Turner referred TO IL
as mot only unconstitutional but as
relic of barharism too black even for
the most despotic and tyrannical gov
eminent that now exists on the face OF
the earth"

the American Soldier.
Chicago, Feb. 10.-Gen. Fitzhugh Lee
iectured here tonight at the Audito
rum under the auspices of the Nation
al Union, patriotic fraternal order.
There was large attendance and the
welcome accorded Gen. Lee was in the
nature of an ovation. His subject was
Peace and War in the United States
and Cuba"
In speaking of the Civil War from
1861 to 1866, ne gave great credit to
both sides for the valor and courage
displayed by American soldiers. and
outlined the present position and in
tention of the Southern section, saying
that that portion of the country had
LETT the question of the right of seces-
sion of the state to be decided by
arms; that he recognized that the
South failed to make two republics
grow in this country where only one
grew before, and that, therefore, it was
its duty to do everything in its power
to make one republic grow grander
and greater than ever before
AS to the Spanish-American war. he
Holu HS was SdtlSHeQ very soon AFTER
his arrival in Cuba that the Span
iards could not quell the Cuban insur-
fection for some years, and that the
Cubans could not drive the Spanish
soldiers from the islands, and that,
therefore, the war would continue until
some country intervened; and as the
United States had laid down as it's
policy that no other country should
interfere, 1t was the duty of the United
States to do so.
He concluded his address by refer
ring to the fact that all clouds that
had hitherto obstructed the progress
and prosperity of the country had been
removed, saying that no imagination
was daring enough TO predict the great
power the United States would exer-
else in the future with other countries
or the immense increase in it's popu-
lation, commerce and trade, and ap-
peallng to all sections, whatever diff
ferences there might be upon govern
mental policies, that there should be
none in preserving peace and in the
performance of all patriotic duties.
