of vital interest to the entire west

his testimony before c. a. Prouty, of
the United States inter state COM

MINSTRELS
TILLMAN SATIRE
Fiery Southerner Arrays
Leading Senators in I'M
aginary Minstrel Show
and is Now Charged with
Insulting the Senate.

Washington. Jan. 22,-CSpeciall
The climax of the senate's debate
on the Brownsville affair was reached
when following the sensational speech
by Senator Ben Tillman and the re-
ply of Senator Spooner, the senate
went into executive session for the
sole purpose of lecturing and disci-
plining the fiery South Carolinian for
his attack upon some of his fellow
senators.
The southern senator in his speech
this morning dealt in one of the most
cutting and sarcastic word caricatur-
es ever heard in Washington.
He arrayed Senator Spooner and
others as stars in minstrel show,
gave them their particular positions
in the semi-circle of an imaginary
stage, this senator, he pronounced
as the middle man, and this and that
one as end men, etc, and then imper-
sonated the action of each of the dis
tinguished performers, dealing in
particular with their connection with
the Brownsville affair.
1t is declared that Senator Tillman
in painting this minstrel show in his
pronounced style was an insult to the
dignity of the august senate.
