1 SENATOR TILLMAN ! REPLIES TO TAFT. 0 MENACE OF IGHriiSSKV EDUCATION- ! 1? REPUBLICANS .'RE MNIERE REPEAL F1FTEIV1H AMENDMENT. Washington, January 50:?When } 'Senator Tillman heard today that j President-* lect Taft had made a speech in Augusta, in which he re-1 ferred to public men w lio were lack- j B ing i'j sympatoy for the negroes ii. j B then efforts i0 secure an education, became thoroughly aroused, audi ^^Uid not hesitate to express his opin- I BP ioo. sayiug: "This is directly trace- j able to the misstatements and mali j P cious editorials emanating from the' Vfv leading newspapers in South Catolina, in which my attitude was not correctly stated. ' In the first place 1 am not op posed to negro education at all, proW Tided it is of the right kind, knowB iug that* education increases the intelligence and usefulness of the Wa citizen. What I said and meant, and by which I stick, is this: That I the Republican policy of the last forty years has been to compel the South to recognize the political equality of the negro. That iu its |essence would mean the domination (of the negro in South Carolina and [Mississippi, aud many parts of other Southern States. "We have disfranchised every negro we could uuder the fifteenth amendment and the only instrumentality available was to require an educational qualification. There is |iow an agitation in South I'aroliuu for compulsory education. That r would mean a heavy burden to provide more schools, which the white taxpayers won Id have to bear, and ii i] L- j! ; : i_ | i mere couia De no uiseniuiuauuu \ 1 Against the negro on account of race mr or color. Hence we would present I the spectacle of educating the negro at a very heavv expense to hurry forward the contest for supremacy I between the two races as soon as we should have given them the necesfl^kary qualifications to vote, and be B^nndoing what we found necessary j preserve our civilation. * Hj^B "We never intend to be governed HER negroes, whether educated or nnMH ucated.

If the Kepubli- J I .us will throw down and abandon J I :ce for all their efforts to compel j I le South to recognize the equality j I f the Caucasian and th^ African bv i Repealing the fifteenth amendment, j I e can then have the control of our j Liate affairs and can then train thim; fco make better citizens and aid in Itfiat 'npltft* which Mr Tafi is so Inxious to see brought about. Bat I/e never expect to'lift'them high enough ourselves or allow anybody pise to' lift them high euough to put [their heels on our necks, or govern us again, and the conflict of the laces which seems to me inevitable, mill only be .fastened by such talk ks Mr Taft indulges in.'!
