SENATOR T1LLMAH AND HIS ANTICS

Of all those that attended the Mo
Kinley Memorial Exercises we think
that no one, except Prince Henry,
attracted so much attention as SenA-
tor Tillman whose fist fight with
Senator MoLaurin the Saturday be-
fore shocked the dignity of the
Senate and humiliated the South
Carolina people, whom these Soma
tors are supposed to represent. In
a measure, too, the whole South was
discredited by the ~~isgraoeful acts
of these two S~outherners.
As we have not before done so, we
give now a brief review of the moi
dent: Tllman charged that Mo
Laurin was induced by promise of
official patronage to vote for the
Paris treaty-virtually bribed. Mo
Laurin, having previously replied TO
the charge, now denounced IL a
malicious lie, whereupon Tillman
leaped, tiger-like, across the seats
that separate them and sprang upon
his colleague. They olinched and
drew blood before being pulled apart.
Both apologized TO the Senate, but
they were unanimously voted in con
tempt of the body, and a committee
appointed TO prescribe punishment,

Friday when the committee reported
a resolution of reproof and censure.

ed, slough Tillman's disrespeotful
comment came nea bringing down
severer penalties upon his head.
"Among gentlemen" he said, Gan
apology for an offense committed
under the heat of blood is usually
considered sufficient"
But the pitohfork Senator is not a
man of delicate sensibilities. He
rather delights in the saucy and IN
becoming, and likes TO do undigni-
fed things in the Senate because
most people think it q place for the
utmost dignity. He wouldn't be
happy if he were not different from
other people: he must even write
with his left hand because other
folks use the right n
That he was not Inundated by
the censure of his associates was
clearly shown by the hippant name
in which he spoke of it Saturday,
reminding US of nothing SO much as
of some impudent pupil making fun
of the light punishment inflicted by
his teacher.
While we find little more TO ad-
mire in the vaoillating MoLsurin
than in the bully Tillman, we think
that in this instance Tillman deserved
the severer punishment. SANDER
ing McLaurin while MoLaurin was
out of the hall, he was virtually the
aggressor.
And the resolution of reproof, as
we have said, rests lightly upon him.
We shouldn't be surprised if he
thinks of it very much as he said of
the Censure of the press for his Min
neapolis speech last year. He had
been roasted, he admitted. "But l
like that it advertises me-" was his
comment. That statement gives a
pretty clear idea of the character of
the senior Senator from South Caro-
lima.

fund next year in the legislative con-
.ests. AS a matter of fact, the job of
heing state chairman of the democratic
oarty is a thankless task. The commit
tee was unable to secure any funds or
get any assistance in any general way.
But as for that the republican commit
for want of funds and did not spend
nearly as much as usual in the cam
paign. Local committees were given
to understand they must attend to their
own necessary campaign expenses.
The freedom with which republicans
indulge in scratching their tockets was
Illustrated in the Eighteenth judicial
district, where Miller and Preston were
elected judges over Treichler and Roth
rock in a district normally very strong
republican. 1t is evident that hundreds
of republicans ruthlessly put the knife
to their ticket and rebuked what they
believed was very bad politics. Incl
dentally it is known that the democrats
were more DESTROYS of electing S. K.
Tracy than of either of the men elected
Tracy had been general solicitor of the

County Auditor Lyon because he had

having had a part in the issuance of a
large number of illegal warrants for
county expenses In connection with the
new court house. He pulled thru with
$50 or less in county normally repub-
lican by 1900. 1t ca nhardly be said the
republicans of that county are welded
to their party very strongly. In several
of the Seventh district there
was vast amount of scratching on
members of congress. The vote will
show that the feeling aroused in the
bitter primary election last winter in
this county has not died out and that

CANAL nEGorMTloNs PROGRESSING.

The action of President Roosevelt in
pushing forward the negotiations to Sc
cure concessions from the Colombian
government for the building of the
| Panama canal viii be heartily approved
| by the majority of the people. The evil
dent aim is to secure an agreement in
order to get the matter settled and cut
of the way before congress conVerles
again. Some of the members of that
body are bent upon obtaining the Mica
ragua route and constructing the canal
there. They are probably prepared to
engage in further attempt to build by
that line when congress meets again, il
arrangements are not then completed
with Colombia,
ington in this movement that all sorts
of rumors are afioat. 1t is definitely
stated. however. that Senior Concllas,
the Colombian minister. called on Sec
rotary Hay at the state department on
Tuesday, by appointment, and took up
the subject of treaty between the
United States and Colombia, on the
question of comforting the necessary
rights ON the United States for the con-
struction of the canal across the 18TH
mus. 1t rs indicated from what can be
learned that Mr.. Concihas has resumed
negotiations of his own initiative, tho
he expects special instructions on GER
tain points involved. The min ster
while at the state department sub
mitted definite proposition which is
in the nature of an answer to the treaty
proposed by the United States.
AS soon as President Roosevelt takes
the subject UP again and considers it,
it is probable that further news will
be given out in regard to it. 1t is
claimed by some that Colombia de-
mands larger price for the right-of-
way than may be considered reasonable,
but of that the public can not Judge
until the facts are known. 1t is be-
lieved, however, that the nation Is just
as anxious to build by the Panama
route as ever.

HURT HIMSELF MOST.

| No one will indulge in more self
condemnation for foolish movement
than Speaker Henderson over his pre-
lcipitate withdrawal. in view of the cleo
ton outcome. 1t is plainly evident that
had he entered the campaign with the
old time vigor and stumped his dis
trict, renewing his friendships and
p;edging himself anew to his constitu-
following. AS an impartial observer the
Kansas City Star is moved to say: 1T
looks now as if Henderson might have
pulled thru in Iowa. His republican
successor has been elected by about
1000 plurality. showing that politician
may know enough to be speaker of the
house at Washington and yet possess a
quality of foresight quite inferior to his
hindsight."
The outcome shows that Henderson's
fright affected his personal interest
without disturbing results elsewhere.
When the public measured the full sig
nificance of this movement it was con-
WINGED that he alone was hurt in so far
as his act bore upon state and national
election results. The chief injury was
the lowering of the Iowa standard at
Washington and the first demoraliza-
ton that followed his withdrawal This
of course gave way to calmer reason
and averted serious consequences. It
brings to light anew the knowledge that
no man is greater than his party, and
that the party is not dependent upon
one or more men for its safe contin,l-
ance,

RESULTS OF SCRATCHING TICKETS.

The democrats are taking great COM
fort over the alleged fact that they have
made some gains in county Offices at
the recent election. The returns are
not In so that this can be confirmed.
but it seems probable that they made
some gains. 1t was essentially a wear
for scratched tickets in a number of
counties and sections, and the demo-
Gratis are the gamers by this fact The
dominant party always loses by reason
of a tendency to scratch the ticket. In
Des Moines county the democrats elect
ed ex-senator w w. Dodge to be coun-
ty attorney, but his majority was very
small. In Appanoosie they elected SEN
ator Claude Porter to be county attor-
ney by 145 plurality, tho the republic
cans elected the rest of the ticket. Por-
ter was importuned to be the democrat
fc nominee for congress against Hep
burn. He did not think a nomination
for congress to be beaten was as good
a
with a chance to win. He will retire
from the state senate. No democrat of
the senate so commands the attention
of that body as does Senator Porter 1t

The recent decision of the district
court in Palo Alto county affirming the
validity of the taxes levied, in this
county upon lot of horses belonging
to Mclaughlin Brothers, is of general
interest.
The facts are as follows: For the
purpose of selling their imported horses
the above named firm brought num-
Der of them to Charlton and kept them
here from November, 1900, to April,
1901. This property was listed for tax
alton here by the town board of equali-
cation, and placed upon the tax books.
Meanwhile the owners thereof had re-
turned to their home in Palo Alto coun-
ty. In order to enforce collection Of
these taxes Treasurer Waynick certified
them to the treasurer of the above
named county, as provided by statute.
Mclaughlin Brothers commenced an
action in the court there to restrain the
treasurer from proceeding in the col
lection of said tax
The case came tip last week In the

IChlcagO Record Herald.
Republican success in the future de-
pends very largely on the construction
hat is put upon the result of the elee-
tons in Iowa, Minnesota and Wisoon
sin. That the republican majorities In
those states should run from $4,000 to
$4,000 is not of itself of much signific-
ance, For they are all normally repub-
Ecan in spite of occasional twists the
other way, and in a long period of years
it will be found that substantial major
tiles are the rule. At present, more
over, the state administrations are re-
publican, and in both the, Fifty sixth
and Fifty-seventh congresses each state
has been represented by solid re-
publican delegation.
What is to be specially noted, how
ever. is that the republicanism which
has won this fall in all three states is
not the republicanism of Senator AID
rich or of Senator Hanna. While some
of the party leaders have echoed the
cries of Let we'll enough alone" and
Stand pat" the Iowa idea has been
very much in evidence with an inter-
probation of a different import. The
voters have understood unquestionably
that the party was sincerely pledged to
put some meaning into the expression
1.-THE tariff should be revised by its
friends" They have not puzzled over
"subjunctives," but have felt that some
OF the tariff rates were actually excess
sive and that some of them afforded a
shelter for trusts. And if the men
whom they have elected to congress
merely put the question off 1t is certain
that they will be called to a strict ac-
counting and made to feel that the
tickle populace is a trifie too steadfast
for the tickle politician.
The representative of the opposition
who, like Lind, of Minnesota, is elect
ed to congress over an nti-rectprocity
stalwart is the small cloud upon the
horizon. Whether a storm shall follow
or not will be determined by the choice
of the republicans between acts and
promises. II they have nothing but
promises to offer while they are still in
full control of the government the VIC
tories of this year will be the preludes
to disaster two years hence.
