Senator Tillman's sensatiO speech
in the senate yesterday has echoed
throughout the nation as an eHOrt
outdoing the eccentric southerners
PREVIOUS attacks. 1t is given in full
below:
TilIman Launches Out.
Mr.. Tillman reviewed the passage
Of Mr.. SpOoner's speech. quoting the
collouuy when he had tried to inter-
rupt him.
when | asked the question. why
did not the president approve Major
Penrose's suggestion and employ de-
tective'?" said Mr.. Tillman, "Mr
Spooner adroitly lodged it by follow
ing the old rule of strengthening your
case az if by abusing the attorney on
the other side.
Il call attention, by the way, to the
fact that each of the three champions
on that side who have been the most
N1ocfferous in applauding the presi-
dents course and defending his con-
duct. lodged this same question. My
bluff and earnest friend from Georgia.
Senator Clay lodged it. The impet-
uous and brilliant friend from Ten
nessee lodged it: the sly and slippery
senator from Wisconsin lodged it. IT

President. that the fact that my SER
vice terminates is a matter of regret
to nearly every senator upon this side
of the chamber l doubt very much
whether that could be truthfuily SAID
if the senator from South Carolina
were in my position.
Spear Broken.
1.-THE senator says my spear is bro
ken and that I have taken garland
of flowers upon that broken spear to
the White House. Broken or unbro-
ken. that spear has never been dipped
in the filth of the gutter
Mr.. Teller interrupted at this point,
and Mr.. Tillman was on his feet. ex-
pressing the hope that the Colorado
senator would yield to him for brief
reply ito my friend from Tennessee"
When Mr.. Carmack declared that
he might also want more time, Mr..
Teller in positive language declined
to yield to either, but addressing the
chamber, said he would move to close
the doors of the senate if he could
get a second. Senators on the repub-
lican side of the chamber seconded
the motion, which was carried.
The closing session was devoted
entirely to an effort to secure the ex-
punging from the congressional rec
ords of the portion of Mr.. Tillman's
remarks relating to other senators,
which he characterized as "the min.
strel show" and which, after two
hours discussion, was brought about
by the South Carolina senator's agree
ment to withdraw his remarks in that
connection.
Senator Teller made the point that
the portion of the speech referring to
other senators was beyond the dignity
of the senate, but those who had been
alluded to at first declared they would
never consent to the withdrawal until
they had had an opportunity to reply.
Mr.. Tillman assured them that what
he had said was intended as nothing
more than a bit of humOr and pleas
antry, and the senate agreed to permit
him to withdraw the Objectionable re.
marks, at the same time making an
apology.
This he subsequently did in open
session.
The secret session was entirely de.
void of acrimOny

ouote from former speech OF mine IN
which I said We shot them. we
killed them and we will do it again.
Now. what about those words OF
mine, we shot Them in what COLI
nection did l utter them. II mis-
toxic not the senator from Wisconsin
wac in this chamber when l used that
language. There were present large
number Of leading republicans. l cnai'
lenged each and every man mere 10
show wherein the people or SOUTH
Carolina were not justified, and no
one dared to reply.
Mr.. Tilman reviewed the conditions
under which the people of his state
acted at the time, to show the dis
uurbed state of legal procedure as
iustifying the course pursued.
"Now. a word about lynching," ne
continued; land my attitude toward
it. A great deal has been said IN
the newspapers, north and SOUTH
about my responsibility in connection
with this matter. My position has
been purposely misrepresented, ana
the senator from Wisconsin has as
sumed himself the right to arraign me
i'm this body and to pass judgment
of condemnation in most vindictive
phras es.
Have I ever advocated lynch law at
any time, or at any place? l answer
on my honor. Never l have justlhed
it for one crime and one only, and
have consistently and persistently
maintained that attitude for the last
fourteen years. AS governor OF South
Carolina l proclaimed that although
I had taken the oath of office to sup
port the law and enforce it, I would
lead mob to lynch any man, black
or white. who had ravished any
woman. black or white. This is my
attitude. calmly and deliberately ia
ken and justified by my conscience in
the sight of God.
Lynching Bees.
Mr. president. the senator from
Wisconsin speaks of lynching bees.
AS far as lynching for rape is con-
cerned, the word is misnomer. When
stern and sad-faced men put to death
a creature in human form VINO has
defiowered a white woman, there is
nothing Of the bee about it. There is
more the feeling of participating as
mourner at funeral. They have
avenged the greatest wrong. the black
est crime in all the category of crimes
not so much as an act Of retribution
but as a warning as to what any man
NAV expect who shall repeat the Of
Tense. They are looking to the pro-
lection of their loved ones.
1.-THE senator from Wisconsin pirates
about the law. He erects the law
into a deity which must be wOrshipped
regardless of justice. He has studied
law books until his mind has become
saturated with the bigotry which 1g-
'nores the fundamental principle in
this government: Law is nothing
more than the will of the people.
There are unwritten laws and writ
ten laws. and the unwritten laws are

Mr.. Carmack said:
"Mr. President, I was not in the
chamber in the early part of the
speech made by the senator from
South Carolina. l believe no senator
here has given more frequent or Sc
verer provocation for retort than the
senator from South Carolina. No SEN
ator upon either side of the chamber
has ever made remarks about the SEN
ator from South Carolina as studiously
offensive as the senator from South
Carolina, without any provocation
whatever, he has seen fit to make of
a number of his colleagues in this
chamber.
Il have no feeling of resentment
towards the senator from South Caro-
lima. for without making any personal
application I wish to say that with
respect to some men it is misfor.
tune rather than a fault that they do
not know how to speak the language
of courtesy and good feeling.
"The senator from South Carolina
saw fit to allude to the fact that had
been defeated for reelection. 1t was
a retort so obvious, so easily within
the right of most groveling faulty that
I am not surprised that it should have
been suggested to the intelligence OF
the senator from South Carolina.
1.-THE senator from South Carolina
did not need to lift his belly from the
dust to attain to the height of that
retort. l believe it to be true, Mr..

you only make yourself ridiculous
and travesty sacred things.
Life is too great and beautiful to
regard it as ruined by the loss of a
pet animal.
That these pets get wonderful

personal Experience, and that the
death of a loving animal makes a

But in life and death animals
should not be made to usurp the
places of human beings. No four
footed creature is made happier by
having its owner forget the proprie
ties or the decencies of life in its

tibitions of lack of taste.

of it is much that is pure vanity and
should be discouraged.
Those who have money can afford
to buy rich apparel, but true modes
ty-a most admirable trait in any one
dictates simplicity in dress, wheth-
or you are rich or poor. There are
more women and girls made conspic-

GIRL GRADUATES.

The Youths Companion offers
some sensible advice to girl gradu-
ates. Commencement exercises are
marked by a display of expensive
dresses. says the State Journal, so
that the girl who is unfortunate en-
ough to be poor, is deeply embarrass-
ed by the contrast of her plain dress.
The result is that an occasion ar
ranged for as one for repoicing brings
only regrets for many of the young
people The Youths Companion Of
fcrs this advice:
"Hard-working fathers will give
much more generously than they can
afford and tired mothers will work
harder than they ought in order that
Mabel may look as we'll as her class
mates or that Johnnie may pay his
share of the class-day expenses; and
there will be loyal, true-hearted boys
and girls who will remain away from
the fun, or go shame facedy and
with heartburn, all because of the
foolish tendency to overdress and
overdo in the way of ostentation. Is
it worth while? Is there any truer
or finer way in which a class can
show its class spirit than by taking
the ground that the happiness of ev-
cry member is the care of all? To
girls especially is opened a rare OPP
portunity to be gracious and consid-
crate. Let the standard of the grad
uation dress be not what the most
well-to-do can afford, but what the
poorest can get without hardship"
On Tuesday we referred to the Of
fering of flowers at the bier of the

No woman would be pleased to hear

wards little white dogs and other
living things they carry around with
them. A little common sense, which
unfortunately is not very common

However tenderly you may love
your pet animal-doggie, pusse or

common sense in the expression of
that sentiment.
Love and sympathy for animals is
a beautiful trait.

bidding further sacrifices.
I'VE cannot be too considerable, too
kind, too loving toward our dumb
kin; but we can be ridiculous, pro-
fame, disgusting and absurd in our
way of showing how we love animals.
1T is disgusting to hear woman
speak of herself as the mother of
a cat or dog. No animal appreciates
this word or is made more comfort

New York, May Il This lis the
great moving day Of New York, as 1t
is in most cites of the state. All
leases are made to begin and, ex-
ipire on the first day OF May, SO
terms of renting begin and end with
this day. In consequence the streets
are full of people who are moving
their effects from the residence
store to another. Rents generally
have gone up, and there is much
groaning on the part Of fiat tenants
who find it very difficult to find
quarters to suit both their wants and
pocketbo oks. In the suburbs the
newspapers have suffered most, as
the rents have assumed such figures
that the big dailies have been oblig-
ed to seek cheaper quarters, or put
their business into the hands Of reg
ular advertising agents. NotVith-
standing the erection Of So many
huge buildings each accomm dating
thousands 81 tenants, the amount Of
room at the disposal Of tenants
seems limited, as there Is more
difficulty in locations for the year,
than there was before all these
buildings were constructed.
Such buildings as the one con-
structed by the Pennsylvania Term
inal Company at Church and Cort-
land and Day streets, will accommo-
date nearly six thousand tenants, yet

vacuum will appear in the buildings
