WASHINGTON LETTER.

On Monday afternoon Senator
Lodge delivered his widely herald
ed speech in support of his Philip
pine bill and a more brilliant ar
ray of erudite pIatitudes and pane
gyrics one seldom hears. 1t bore
every evidence of being the pro-
ducti0n Of the cultured sophist.
Assuming, what was not the
case, that the Democrats had at
tackled the American army, and
totally avoiding the Democratic
proposition that the cruelty and
abuses which had been proven to
exist were inseparable from a war
of conquest conducted by a superb
or race, he INDUCED in a glowing
tribute to the army. Referring to
the cruelties and tortures prac-
tiGed, he cited similar atrocities by
the FiIipinos supporting, by i'm
plication, the theory that two
wrongs make a right. Democrat
ic charges, that the privileges and
franchises of the islands we're be-
ing farmed out to the favored few
as a result of the policy of the adj
ministration, he passed over with
an eloquent testimonial to the
characrer of the members of the
Philippine Commission. Review.
ing Mr.. Lodges speech, outside of
the sympathetic atmosphere Great
ed by the magnetism of the speak
er, one is led to deplore the fact
that so able a statesman should
have been guilty of employing his
exceptional talents in an effort to
create partisan feeling by gross
misrepresentation of the real atti-
tude of his opponents.

There is reason to believe that
the Naval appropriation bill,
which will be considered in the
House, probably Immediately after
the passage of the territorial bill,
will preciPitate a pretty fight. The
measure as reported contains a
provision that one or more of the
new ships to be constructed shall
be built under the supervision of
the Secretary of the Navy in one
of the government navy yards and
it is this provision Which will oc
casion a wide difference of opinion
in both the House and the Senate.
1t is generally supposed that the
provision will pass the House be
cause it is warmly espoused by the
labor organizations who believe
that they would profit were the
government to build its own ships.
In the Senate, however, it will
meet with more vigorous opposi-
ton. Senator Perkins of Califor-

Movement In South Carolina to Dis,
place Tilman and McLaurin.

Columbia, S. c., Jan. ia resolu-
ton will be introduced into the South
Carolina legislature. which convened
here Tuesday, declaring the seats OF
Senators Tillman and McLaurin va
cant and proposing an immediate cleo
ton to fill the vacancies. This is the
plan of the most radical members of
the legislature, who are opposed to
the strong republican leaning of SEN
ator McLaurin and the populism OF
Senator Tillman. They consider this
an opportune time to make the at
tempt to GUST both senators.
Senator McLaurin has many strong
and Influential friends in the legis-
lature, who will make a hard fight
against the adoption of the resolution
of censure which will be introduced
by partisans of Senator Tillman. The
plan of the latter is to censure the
junior senator and call upon him to
resign, declaring that he no longer
represents the democratic party which
sent him to the senate. Upon his fail
ure to appear before the joint session
and explain his action in voting with
the republican party and accepting the
committee appointments of the repub-
lican caucus, an effort will be made
to force his retirement by declaring
his seat vacant. Then the effort will
be made to have Senator Tillman's
place also declared vacant.

Almost everybody's digestion is dis
ordered more or less, and the common
est thing they do for it is to take some
4 one OF the many so-called blood purifi-
ers, which in many cases are merely
strong cathartics. Such things are not
needed If the organs are in clogged
condition, they need only little help
and they will right themselves. Ca
thartics irritate the sensitive Innings OF
the stomach and bowels and often do
more harm than good.

thing TO do is to put the food in con-
dition to be readily digested and assm-
