From Our Oven Correspondent. WASHINGTON, D. C., March 10, 1002. It WM decidedly good politics fox the Democratic Senators to notify the Re publicans that they would not oppose tho .taking of a vote on the ship sub sidy bill, now before the Senate, s,Zter they had presented their reasons against the bill. Some of those rea soed and concludive ont*, too were given in the speeches of Senators Clay, Vest and other* this wee'., and others will follow, 'l?b?the .Demo crats will allow th d Republicans to paa? this bill, which wJU put millions of the people's dollars 'roto the pockets of a single class-tho shipbuilders-and ap peal the case to Vue people. In every Congressional du > trie t of the country the voters will be asked to declare for or against this vioioua class legislation. During the campaigns when this legis lation .was only contemplated Repub lican speakers in many districts dodged the question. With the law on the statute books by the votes of Republi cana and the signature of a Republican President, it cannot be dodged. Ita vicions principle must be supported or opposed, and th? only right way to opr pose it will bo to vote the Democratic ticket. Republican members of the Senate committee on Tinonee appear to have seen a new light on the question of re pealing the war taxes. At tfiis'week'c meeting of the committee, which wai the first that has considered the House bill repealing the war taxes, instead of the talk about there being doubts as tc the wisdom of making such a big cut ix the revenues, which was prevalent among them ; when the bili passed th< House, they talked as thoa gh-the re porting of the bill to the Senate, witl a few connecting amendments, was i matter of course. -Gov. Taft told the HOCBC Insnlai Committee this week that the estima ; ted number of slaves in the Southon Moro group of the Philippines, wai 260,000, or nearly one-fonrth of th? population, and made the astounding statement that if the Americans Bhoulc try to end slavery by force they wooli be*fought by the slaves. He alsotolt the committee a piece of news-that hi had attempted to find out the exac number of slaves in the islands, with i View to buying their freedom. Evi dendy Gov. Taft has a big idea of th buying capacity of this' government He is trying hard to persuade Congres to provide for the purchase of thelani owned by the friars, and he was goini to arrange for the purchase of the lib erty of the slaves without toking th trouble to say anything, to Congres about it. Well, when a govern m on ignores its constitution whenever i suits its party bosses, it cannot expec its officials to have much regard for il Representative Richardson, of Tenn, has announced that owing to othe work he has promised to do, it will h impossible for him to serve again a Chairman of the Democratic Congres Bionnl Campaign Committee. Becaus of the belief, growing in strength ever day, that the Democrats will elect majority of the nextHonse, there j much good-natured rivalry for this pc sition, although if properly filled i carries a lot of bard work with it. Senator Cockrell, in a speech againe an Indian land treaty, strongly attach ed the whole administration policy and declared that the government ha no more right to bny Indian lands an turn them over to nome-steaders tho it had to bny lands in Ohio. Indiana, t any other State and turn them over i home-steaders. Speaker Henderson's advices froi his district are by no means satiei'actoi and he is thoroughly alarmed over h prospects for another term in Congres His attitude on the tariff is understoc to be what has weakened him in ti district, where there aro many Rep ul licacs who agree with Mr. Babcoc that if the Republicans rei usa to ref or . the acknowledged abuses in the teri: the people will elect a Democrat Congress todo it. If he had it toe over again it io doubtful whether M Henderson would express the san tariff views, but he is where he cann very well crawfish, owing to hishavii committed himself too strongly in pe oonal letters, the authenticity of whit cannot be questioned like Btatemec in a newspaper interview. Senator-elect McCreary, of Ko tucky, is in Washington, receiving t congratulations of his CongressTori and other friends. He is the sar jolly fellow he was when a member the House. Speaking of his return public" life he said: "I am real pleased to come back to Was liing tc for my experience is that when a tn gets used to being in public life it ii hard habit to break. For a while aft leaving Congress I thought of abs doning politics, but somehow my ref lui.ou didn't stick, au.lns Kentucl stood in need of being redeemed, I h to get in to the battle and do my sh? toward the work of redemption. Tl was accomplished very sa ti sf ac tor i and now it has gone back to Its an cit Democratic moorings, there to renn permanently." The Panama lobby got it in the ne again this week, when tho sub-comm tee of the Senate Inter-oceanio Can Committee reported against accepti tho Panama Canal Co's, oiler to st because of tho international and otl complications involved in the title what it offers to sell. The most no ble feature of tho present Bitnatiot Senator Hanna's open command of t forces that are working for the Pana1 rente. However, Senator Morgan n other advocates of the Nicaragua roi regard victory as certain, although 1 tl gu L vu Hits iioor of the Senate ?>ny long and bitter. - The beet sugar.

Men have respect to surroundings ; to be a denizen of South Carolina may, per haps, lu a abort time be ignominious. Senator Tillman, the pity lt 1B, hlacom bnatable temperament heated, perhaps, seven times by the Inflammable spirit that would for Ita own congenial affinity create the legal liquor traffic of his native State, jumps upon and physically affronts bia Intellectual neighbor in the Senate, becauae that neighbor possessed the dis criminating judgment to pronounce the Senator's misrepresentation of himself In Tlllmanlo Saxon-"a He." The oontign OUB Senator did not coronate hui Senior's misstatement-falsehood, untrath, fabri cation. In language of hurt pride, devoid of rlbalry, he employed Senator Till man's own figure of punctuated argu ment in appraising the offence, kindly refraining to appropriate a qualifying -," whloh Tillman himself under less provocation would have embellished with a flourish. For this the Senator did not thank him; the apology he should warmly have tendered the. offended, and especially for his mit representation be hind hlabrother Senator's back. When a man cannot defend himself, he with cold Indifference offered the Senate, not because the House considering him In his charaoterzatlon of Southern gentleman would oxpuot lt, but because the apology waa a requirement of parliamentary ethics. His apology waa : "My previous service as Governor of South Carolina for four years had unfit ted me in a measure to enter this august nesembly with that dignity and proper regard for its traditions and habita and rules that la desirable." Considering the loyal and high-born antiquity of the Sooth, caa the gentle men of South Carolina stand auch lan guage and be allont? If they can, no relief or opposition may be expected of peasantry and laymen If the fact of being Governor of South Cai Una for four years la flagrantly acouaed of robbing a man of natural politeness and public decency, so that aa a gentleman he is unfit the as sociations of gentlemen, then is it time Bouth Carolinians, tor the first in history, bow to the stigma of all elater States. Palpable and hugo ls the mistake to reserve a man ao poor In Intellect, so meagre in adaptability, and pay him so lt*rge a sum yearly to alap in the face his friendB and fellow-countrymen with the inault that within four yeara' executive administration In South Carolina he has lost so much acquired refinement, and practical good manners that he has not re claimed himself within seven years' sen atorial embellishments In the capital st Washington. The moral of this little arraignment of Indignation is, that the people are trnly becoming tired of these exhibitions as characterizing South Carolinian gallantry. All lower look to the higher, and young er to the older for counsel. Mothers for bid their ohildreu attending school where the teachers countenance bad manners, or rough treatment. A man of respecta bility will not permit a workman to in sult with rough words or "blows at a close range" the beast ia his stable. There ia a growing longing for refine ment, sn aspiration for goodness, and lt does not accord with tho example of our Senator at Washington. Tho women, though they may not vote, talk. They denounce the author of the liquor dis: BU* sary with ita baneful influence upon the young, and aspirants of further attain ments who would outer the city. They combine the consequence of the liquor and the conduct of tue Napoleon at the State helm, and tho agreement together in computation ls in their oyes not fav orable to tho Senator's illimitable suo CeShame and sneer, laugh and derision arise wherever the "artair of honor" ia mentioned, and Mr. Tillman so long hav ing distinguished himself lu such gallan try is by all at firs*, breath branded with being the entire cause and effect of this laat exhibition. . Our city papers reaching Northern pub llcatione, it ia our ambition that even the most mcdsst eyes r?mjhlng tueao South ern aentlmenta should know ua not by misrepresentation in Washington but by representation of character in the South. We ar? aspiring, we uro slink i HR off the duat of dark ages, our feet tread the white labor of the honest fields, our eyes behold the benign blue of the heavens. We have schools, which despite aome disparage ment or their support, are nurtured by the pure principles of the young women and young men of the loyal South. The Sooth has ita historv, ita hope or the fu ture, all nurturing and expanding the nighest intellectual and patriotic faoul tlea of the brain, and thia imperious Car olina projecting its native pride into the future, meat assuredly proclaim her-elf mistress of her destiny, reigning over,, not under, aught that would bring her dishonor or dls-ease.
