News and Courier.
Columbia. January Ex-senator
Tillman addressed the General As
sembly tonight on ln:n;r""ri"n and
Its Relation to the Rae. Hl"sj!"n. y
His speech was listened to with
marked attention by the Large au-
hience present and was highly COM
mended by the large mapority.
The members Of the senate and
house were very nearly all present,
and in addition the Hobbies and gal
leries were we'll filed, many ladies
being present. Lieutenant Governor
Mcleod presided and introduced
the speaker.
Senator Tillmar reviewed the
events e reconstruction and told
how the yoke had been thrown off
. by the White people. He declared
that the present franchise laws are
merely temporary in view of the fact
that the negroes are coming edu-
Gated and able to comply with the
suffrage qualifications At the same
time they are increasing in numbers
more rapidly than the whites
There are two remedies he suggested.
First, we must have an increase in
white population. He pointed out
how the state had been populated
by foreign peoples at different sta
ges Of its history and declared that
we must seek thorugh wise means
more white settlers. people Of kin
;dred ideas, who will become owners
and renters Of land, NOT laborers.
He said that we need not expect to
complete with other more favored
sections on equal terms.
In order to make this state more
attractive he advocated the drain
act of coast lands by national gov
,ernment on the same plan the irri-
CATION work is being carried Oh in
the west.
His second remedy is the repeal
Of the fifteenth amendment. He told
how his speeches on this question
had been received in the north and
west, and declared That he believed
the people Of those sections will
listen to the demand Of the south
that the amendment be repealed.
His argument on this li1e was we'll
reasoned and logical, and nowhere
i'm his address was there any bitter
ness or vituperation. AT times the
senator rose to heights Of eloquence
and especially when he declared his
love for South Carolina, the state
which had showered honors upon
him.
The fact that there is now being
started a determined fight to stop
the work done the last few years
ITO induce immigration to South
Carolina by abolishing the immigra-
tion bureau lends particular appro-
priateness to the senator's addres.
He did no refer to this matter at
all, and may not nave been Informed
on the situation, but there is GER
tainly no reason to doubt where he
stands on the immigration issue.

DR. GRfENE'S REPORT
 ON WARDWELL CASE
Sad as the Situation Is, there is No Occasion for the Public to Be Dis turbed Through Fear of Infection.

Governor Kibbey yesterday received
 from Dr. w. A. Greene of Douglas,
 superintendent of public health of Co., chise county. an official report of the facts in connection with the Wardwell leper episode at Tombstone. The gover- nor has referred the matter to Dr. J. w Coleman of Tucson. territorial super intendent of public health. and the lat ter with the goernors permission had referred it on to Dr. Greene. The lat ter's report was mailed before the death of Col. D. K. Wardwell, which was announced in Sunday mornings dispatches.
 Pitiful as the circumstances have been and still are, Dr. Greene's report indicates that there is no occasion for alarm for the spread of cOntagion, if the situation is properly handled. His report reiterates much that is already known of the general facts but gives the needed information as to the phys lcal condition at present. He states that D. K Wardwell was S6 years old and had no symptoms of leprosy him self though he was practically blind and suffering from a cancer of the eye lfldI Idu dlnlOSI ueSlIONeu one sue OL his face. He was a veteran of the civil and Mexican wars, says the report, though it has been stated by other sources that his service in Mexico was with the MeXicans against MaXimilian and not in the United States army. However he was drawing a small pen sion and about two and half years ago he was admitted to the Soldiers home at Sawtelle, Cal.
 Some time ago his wife collapsed on a street in Los Angeles and was taken to the California hospital. where it was found she was suffering of leprosy. Concerning the manner of the removal of the family from California to Tomb stone, Dr. Greene says there is some doubt. One story is that Mir. Ward well escaped from the hospital with his wife, fearing her deportation to Molokai, and another is that some one paid MT. Wardwell a sum of money to leave and take his wife with him.
 Anyhow, they went to Tombstone. Mrs Wardwell is a quarterblood MeXi- can woman, much younger than her husband was and they were married seventeen years ago. It has been
