LIE PASSED BY SENATORS.
Tillman and McLaurin Come
to BloWs-One of the Most
Sensational S C enes
Ever Witnessed in
the Senate.

In the United States Senate
Saturday afternoon occurred one
of the most sensational physical
encounters ever witnessed in that
body.
Senator B. r. Tillman, of South
Carolina, was proceeding with
his speech against the Philippine
Tariff bill, when Senator John Q.
Spooner, of Wisconsin, inter
rupted to ask how a two thirds
majority OF the Senate had been
obtained to ratify the Paris
Treaty of Peace.
Mr.. Tillman finally intimated
that one Senator-reierring to
his colleague, MIR. McLaurin-
had been won over 10y promises
of patronage, in South Carolina.
Mr.. McLaurin, who was absent
from the chamber at the time, re
turned and, speaking in his own
defense, denounced Mr. Tillman'S
statement as a "maliciouS lie"
Tillman Immediately rushed to-
ward McLaurln and struck him
on the forehead. The two clinch-
ed and were finally separated
The Senate adjudged both of
them guilty Of contempt, and
after each Of them had apologiz
ed the incident was referred to
the Committee on Privileges and
Elections.
On Monday when the vote on
the Philippine Tariff bill was
taken, the names of Tillman and
McLaurin were not called.
Later the names were restored
to the roll, and it is not likely
that any further steps will be
taken. The Republicans would
like to expel both Senators, but
the Democrats will heartily OPP
pose such action.
Senator Tillman received a
note from Secretary CortelyOu,
recalling the Presidents invita-
ton to dine at the White House
the same night with Prince
Henry due to the unfortunate in
cident of Saturday.

was to petition for membership in our

That Cuba will need advice and help
for some time is certain. The poor.

the interior can have no conception of
the duties and possibilities of a free
government and of the duties owed to
it's representatives.
Cuba's first congress. which meets
in the spring, will be composed princi-
pally of men of wealth. That is why
the outlook for the future is considered
hopeful by those in a position to Judge.
Heretofore the best people would have
nothing TO do with politics, and things
were always in a bad way as a conse-
quence Now that the people who con-
troll the substantial interests of the
island are to take charge of its affairs
the argument is offered that the best
interests of the country are sure to be
maintained.
The best posted Cubans believe that
the only hope for the future of their
country, politically, commercially and
in every way, lies in maintaining close
and friendly relations with the United
States. A member of the new con-

The poorest girls in the world. it is
believed, are those who are not taught
to work. and the sad part about it is
that there are thousands of them. Rich
parents have petted them, and they
have been taught TO despise labor and
to depend upon others for living and
are perfectly helpless. The most for
lorn women belong to this class. 1t is
the duty of parents to protect their
daughters from these deplorable con-
ditions. They do a great wrong to
them If they neglect it. Every daugh-
ter should be taught to earn her own
living. The rich as well as the poor re-
quire this training. The wheel of for
tune rolls swiftly around. The rich
are likely to become poor and the poor
become rich. Skill added to labor is no
disadvantage to the rich and Is inds-
pensable to the poor. Well to do par
