Senator Benjamin H Tillman addressed a
Democratic gathering of 1.&00 persona at
the Bouth Side Turner Hall to-night, con
fining his remark* chiefly to so-called im
pel iwllsm. He was frcquenly applauded.
“One burning question," he said. "I* to
determine whether or not you will retain
a republic to live under or whether you
will set up a mliiPity despotism."
Th* Porto Rican tariff law he character
ized as "a damnable act for which you
will raise up and cull the Republicans to
account."
These people, he said, were promised
that they would receive all the rights and
guarantees that th*- c institution calls for.
but the Republican party has from the
start denied them their rights.
He dwelt at length on the Philippine*
ami ridiculed the statement of Republi

reports, message* were being sent to
Washington almost dally containing news
of the kiting *f many of our soldiers. He
quoted Admiral Dewvy to lb** effect that
the Khipinos were better able to govern
themselves than the Cuban*, yet the Ou

He urged his hearer* to arise above
party and vote for iwiie .ple and liberty;
that they were to -bride whether the con

THEORIES ABOUT FOOD.
Alan a Few Farts on the Same Sub
ject.
We hear mueh nowadays about health
foods anei hygienic living, about vegeta
rianism and many other fads along the
same line.
Restaurants may be found In the larger
cities Where no meat, pastry or eoffee Is
served and the food crank Is In hi* glory,
and arguments and theories galore ad
vanced 10 prove lhat meet was never In
tripled for human stomachs, amt almost
make us believe that our sturdy ancestors
who lived four smre years In robust
health on roast href, pork and mutton
must have been grossly Ignorant of the
laws of health.
Our forefathers had other things to do
than formulate theories ahem the fond
they ale. A warm welcome was extended
to any kind from baron to acorns.
A healthy appetite and com moo-sense
are excellent guides to follow In matters
of diet, and a mixed diet of grains, fruits
and meats Is undoubtedly the best.
As compared with grain* and vegeta
bles meat furnt'hc* the most nutriment In
a highly concentrated form and Is diges
