WASHINGTON. Slay 30. It Is "well
known that when the upecch of Senator
Spooner was made on the Philippine ques
tion it wis to be a text for the stump
speakers during the Republican campaign.
Spooner Is the ablest debater there Is In
the Senate While he may not be as pro
found a lawjer as Hoar, or such a -well-read
scholar as Davi, nor Is his mind
stored with quite as -wide a range of in
formation ai Morgan, he is a much su
perior man to all of these as a debater
and as a practical statesman and Sena
tor. Probably Senator Spaoncr -would'
stand at the head of the able men of
the Senate when all of his capabilities are
considered, and as a fighter on the floor,
meeting all comers and Inviting Interrup
tions and questions, he Is beyond question
the best Senator In the body today. For
three days he held the Senate, talking
on the Philippine question, and during
this time he was listened to with marked
attention, and met every man who wanted
to engage him In debate with the free and
easy manner which always characterizes
Spooler while making a speech.
HI How With Hnle.
The most Interesting event of the Spoon
er speech was the row which occurred with
Senator Hale, of Maine. Hale !s a very
fctrong anti-expansionist. He has been
against everv move that has been made
by the Republican party during the pres
ent administration. He was a friend of
Spain during the days leading to the
Spanish "War. He opposed everything that
vi as done to bring on the war, and was
against the ratification of the treaty and
the retention of the Philippines. Previous
to this he opposed the annexation of
Hawaii, although he was finally induced
to vote for it, a vote which he has always
regretted. Hale had a pretty good case
when he got Into the fight with Spooner.
end It was only because of the alertness
of his antagonist that he did not score
heavily. The recent disastrous exposure?
rn Cuba, exposures which havo caused
universal regret in the United States, gave
him on opportunity to show how the co
lonial policy would work and how men
who were given unlimited power In the
Island were exploiting It for their own
good, even to criminal acts and general
loot. It was Senator Spooner, however,
who skillfully kept the Maine Senator
to the Philippine question and to the du
ties of the United ,Stntcs in the premises
and finally overturned him, denounced his
want of patriotism and pcored a victory
which few men would have been able to
achieve under like circumstances.
Other Antagonists.
Senator Spooner also met In that de
bate Pettlgrew, who Is the most vitupera
tive of all the anti-expansionists on the
floor of the Senate; Allen, who is given
o demagogy, and who Is at the same
time an able man, and Tillman, who Is
the best debater on the Democratic side.
The South Carolina Senator, more adroit
than the others, and knowing from ex
perience that Spooner is better equipped
for a running debate than any ether man
in the Senate, interrupted but few time.,
and then In euch a way as not to neces
sitate an out-and-out drubbing whkh
Spooner administered to his other antag
onists. The "Wisconsin Senator grasped
Pettlgrew and Allen without limit. It was
clear that both of them made a mistake
in getting into a debate with the brainy
Wisconsin man, who was their superior
in this line at every point. Spooner kept
his temper, which was something the oth
er Senator? could not do. He rs ever
ready and witty, quick to retort, and long
before the Interruption is finished he has
"broken the force of It by some sharp
Interjection, which turns the laugh on his
antagonist and the applause to himself.
The Growth of Tillman.
Speaking of Tillman, one is reminded
that no man has so completely changed
In five years as this South Carolina Sen
ator. Although he had been Governor of
his state for two terms when he came
to the Senate, he was yet an uncouth and
unpolished man, bitter against the world
and with a general belief that every man
who did not agree with him was a rascal
and a corruptlonisL Hi.- first speech was
a bitter denunciation of Graver Cleveland,
full of the fire nad Invective which
had given Tillman a reputation such as
few men w ould care to posses, and which
extended all over the United States. At
the close of that famous speech, Tillman
was a marked man In the Senate, and It
was generally felt that he would never
be able to live down the bad impression
that he had created. But there was mon
to him than people supposed. He learned
rapidly. He found out that men were not
all blackguards becau.e they took oppo
site views from himself. He found that
other men were as patriotic as he believed
himself to be, and that they were also ai
honest as he undoubtedly is. The five
ears have softened him, have educated
him and have made him one of the- lenders
of his party, and one of the md?t respect
ed opponents that the Republican Seua
1prs have. Next to Senator Cockrell, of
Missouri, Tillman i. no doubt the most
popular man on his side of the chamber,
especially with these Senators who oppose
him.
Where Hale Hurt.
There was one remark by Senator Hale
which hurt the Republicans a great deal,
and which caused a great deal of resent
mei.t. It was the lame pl?cc in Spooners
defence. Hale stated that he did not be
lieve it was the intention of the United
States Government to retire from Cubi,
and the only rply which Spooner could
make was that he had more confidence in
the promises of his Government than that
exhibited by the Senator from Maine.
Now, as a matter of fact. Senator Hale
voiced the views of a great many people
who have been watching the course of
events in Cuba. The United States went
to war with Spain because they claimed
the government of that country was un
satisfactory, and a better government
should be established. "When the Teller
addenda to the war resolution was adopt
ed by both Houses of Congress, and
signed by the President. It wap binding
Of course. It was foolish, but It was

were entirely In favor of the view that
Cuba was capable of sMf-government. If

the Island of Cuba. But It looks verv

who have given the subject any thought.
Xow They Are Tinny.
The closing days of a hesslon of Congrr.s
!s a verv busj timo for Senator. and mem
bers. Nearly every man has some meas
ures which he must get through hefore
rdiournment. and always" pushes- them for
all he Is worth. The trouble Is that a
great many of these measnires must be
put on appropriation bills in the Senate.
"Vcausp the Speaker, wielding so much
pnwer in the; Bouse, prevents the consid
eration of anything except that which Is
satisfactory to him. These various bills,
of 50 much personal Importance, are al
lowed to go through If they will not cause
much additional expense to the Govern
mrt and arc not likely to have any oppo
rltlon. The Speaker generally protects
himself "by allowing these measures to

makes every man responsible for every

they want to go through.. Usually the
Senate committees accept thse amend

and then lose them in conference than It Is
to reiuse- a Senator's requeri. All of the

For more than 10 years now. to my cer
tain knowledge, efforts have been made to
pass the Indian War pension bill. Yet it
never gets through the Howe. The late
Senator Dolph gave considerable attention
to It. and succeeded In pushing It through

Torribriow's Verdict Means Aid for Expansion or Com
fort for Bryamsm.
On Monday next the State of Oregon will elect a Legislature, two mem
bers or Congress, a Justice of the Supreme Court, and a Facd Commissioner.
The registration, which closed two weeks ago. foreshadowed the largest vote
ever cast 'in the stato. Party linos and .party .Issues are more sharply defined
than ever before. On one side arc the Republicans, solidly arrayed In favor of
honest money, American expansion, progress and prosperity. Opposed to them
Is a motley but aggressive alliance "of Democrats, Populists and Silver Repub
licans, on a platform reaffirming the free-eofnagc dogma, denouncing the po.i
cics and achievements of the Government and proclaiming all the monstrosi
ties of Bryantem. f
These arc the lines along which the forthcomIngbattlc In Oregon is to be
fought, and Republicans, not only in that state, but throughout the country,
may await the result with entire composure. In ISM Oregon hung In the bal
ance, and after a desperate camplSgn hastate was carried for McKlnley anii
Hobart by the slender majority of 21C7. Then political sanity began to return,
the argument of prosperity asserteo Itself, and In 1S5S the Republicans clcctea

2037 and 6657 respectively. Since then the forces of Bryanism havo stcad.ly
declined and the business Interests of Or.-gon have flourished as never before.
American expansion in the far E'tet has confronted the Pacific Coast States
with commercial opportunity of almost Immeasurable value, and The Port

fruits of Republican achievements, asks the state':

Is not the . leaf t .possibility of this bill pas

fact. The Oregon Representatives, the
"Washington Representatives, and other
Representatives Interested these old vet
erans, have done everything they could to
get the bill Thrpugh, but they were not
successful, and It was not their fault. Th?

It 1e quite probable that one of the Ore
gon Representatives will have to spend a
part of h'-s Summer or Fall In "Washington,
and will not be allowed to remain at home
until Jubt before Congress meets In De
cember. The committee on rivers and har
bors has decided to get together after the
Convention, when it Is convenient for 1th
members, and frame the river and harbor
bill, which will be presented at the next
set.Ion. in order to properly frame the
bill It will b necessary for the entire com
mittee o be present, and as one of the
Oregon member, belongs to the committee
his duty will call him to "Washington cur
lier than usual. Then, too, It is very es
sential that the Oregon member should be
at all of the meetings. The next river
and harbor bill lb expected to do a groat
deal for Oregon, and much Is nocded for
the state in the way of appropriations of
that character. If the Oregon member
takes a hand in framing the bill, the Col
umbia River stands a better chance for
securing proper recognition, than If the
care of that project is left to other, mem
bers of .the committee. Then, too. there
.should be one member who can look after

It was hard work, but the Orsgon man
