!, WASHINGTON, D. c.. June 10.-
With no certainty when a vote will
be taken on the bill to repeal the
tolls exemption clause OF the Panama
canal act, the senate today heard
more oratory on the subject. Seaa.
tor Tillman announced he would
vote for repeal only because he felt
liis state part yconvention had freed
ihim from the tolls joker In the BAL
timore platform.
"1t staggers my common sense.
and I have been unable to under
stand just why he projected the
fight on his party at this time.' .
Senator Tillman said. in discussing
the presidents demand for repeal
at Is of great Importance to the
Democratic party to control the
;house at the next election. and be-
lieve the president should have kept
quiet until that election was over.
1t would have been the best states.
manship as well as the best politics
to have done so. Until this issue was
pressed to the front the course Of
Democracy had been onward and
upward. The opposition was hope
less and helpless. There was wis.,
dom in silence and 1t would have
been golden. There are so many
things of more Importance that the
Democratso ught TO do that must
say in my opinion Il was a great
blunder on the part Of the president.
