TILLMAN.

Senator Benjamin r. Tillman was
a uniquely American man. His like
could not be found in the public life
of any other land. He was a hard
worker, and he had great ability to
add to his industry. Where his pre-
JUDGES were not concerned. he was
also dependable and far-seeing:,
Whitman was type of the political
leader of the south in the last de-
cade of the nineteenth century. He
followed the more dignified southern
statesmen of the period immediate
ly after reconstruction, and he was

tion-,by the younger and more bust
nesslike southern leaders of today;
have produced him. He will scarce
ly have a prototype in the future.
1t may be said, too, that South Car
DINA may not again be SO well ca
ed for by her successors to the de-
ceased senator.
1t is to be doubted whether Till
man ever meant all that he said in
his stormiest moods. He loved 70
pose-in his own way. He loved the
attention he attracted, and he as
dearly loved the dislike which his
words and his manner awakened in
many quarters. 1t was said at the
time that he was one of the most
sincere mourners at the death OF
President Mckinley. Nobody eyer
sorry over anything which befell Nc
Kinley's successor. 1t is probable
that Roosevelt and the South Caro-
Imam hated each other about as de-
voutly as did ever two American po-
litical leaders.
Tillman was not more pictures
quely attractive in his rough and
t11rnh1o 1ohatoc IN floor Of tho
senate than he proved in his speech
making tours of the country. The
chautauqua circuits afforded the peo-
pie throughout the land an oppor-
tunity to see and hear Tillman, and
likewise offered him an agreeable
method of posing before his fellow
Amercsns There can be no s dou1f

orally shown since that the pitch

of his savageness.
Although an extremist in speech
and manner, Tillman proved himself
conservative, too. In recent years
senate. Nevertheless, he was there
and he was working hard and he was
often stemming the tide of tempor-
airy passion. He did good work at
the head of the committee on naval
affairs. He was, as has been already
said, a credit to his state, and he
served his country well.

THAT STIFFEN US
TO OUR JOB.

The cruel and inhuman act of the
Huns in sinking the Canadian hos
pital ship Llapdoverys Castle has
caused Washington to delay the sail
ing of the American hospital ship
Comfort through the submarine zone
give ease, to many americans who
had all along been fearful of the
! consequences Of such venture,
The feeling has been that even
though notice of such intention
were given the Berlin government,
the laws of war and humanity would
not be respected. This belief, bas-
ish and French hospital ships, has
now been justified by the sinking OF
the Llandovery Castle.
1t was sad mistake to send the
Llandoyery Castle across without
full protection. Nothing is sacred
to the Huns. Their honor is gone,
their Christianity is gone, they are
ing in the realm Of abysmal infamy.
They are to be dealt with only as
vermin. Publication of the world
can come only by the determination
of the Hun. And the job is not an
easy one, but one that may be done
at all cost; and no cost is too great,
for with such elements in control the
world will not be habitable for de-
cent people. Every act of tiendish-
ness that has been committed by the
Huns has strengthened the deter
mination of those whose mission it is
to combat this force of evil, and the
sinking of the Llandovery Castle
will heighten the resentment. Such
acts arouse the spirit of vengeance in
men of red blood. They generate a
righteous ferocity that neither gives
nor asks quarter. They put that
personal purpose into the fighters
which makes armies invincible. The
Hun has cursed the earth with his
iniquities and put humanity to the
task of self-defense. If humanity
shall survive the Hun must be des-
troyed. This is our job and every
Hun atrocity stiffens us to it.-St.

Germany and Air Raids.

A dispatch from Switxerland states
that score Of American military pris-
oners have been placed at Mannheim,
Germany, as protection against al
he'd air raids. Mannheim is about 120
miles. east Of Nancy, and, therefore,
within range Of airplane visitation. The
placing Of American prisoners there,
however, will mot check. any enterprise
that the allied command may have in
mind for bombing operations in the
Rhine valley. This is not 3 new de-
vice. It is simply. q Characteristic Ger
man maneuver to discourage reprisals.

ed. Germany has shown no.eonsidera-
ton whatever in the bombing Of un-
fortified British cities and has vio-
lated the rules Of war in the destrue-

record of brutal indifference to all

the laws Of civilized warfare,>it is alto:

Why the Subs Have Failed.

Admiral Won Holtzendorff, chief Of
the German admiralty staff, explains
that the U.boats are not sinking the
American transports for the reason
that there are too many ports Of de-
barkation and that the transports run
too irregularly and are too well guard
ed. Therefore, it is inexpedient for
the submarines to lurk of the various
European ports on tho chance Of get
ting a shot at the troopships. Conse-
quently the German submarine effort
is mainly directed against cargo boats.
Inasniuch a. the German campaign
against our transports has been vir-
tually a total failure, some explanation
certainly is justifahe.; The reasons
given by Admiral Won Hpltzendoiff are
good and sufficient ones, especially that
regarding the efficiency Of tho protect
ing guards. It, would be interesting If
the naval chief Of staff were to
strengthen his excuse by aeknowledg.
ing the number Of German submarines
