SENATE EXCITED
BY GREAT SPEECH
Thurston Held ths Atientlos of a Vast
Andienca for Hours.
TELLS WHAT HE SAW IN CUBA
Senator Declares He Promised His Dy
ing Wife To Speak at Once.
HIS COLLEAGUES MADE TO WEEP
Says There Is but One Thing To Do
and That Is To Stop Spanish
Brutality at Once.
By Jos: Ohl.
Washington, March 24.—(Special.)--The
announcement that Senator Thurston
would make a speech on the conditions in
Cuba had the result of drawing to the
capitol tbe (biggest crowd which has been
there since I’resident McKinley’s Inaugu
ration. The gallarlcs were filled to over
flowing and hundreds of people stood In
the halls outside hoping for a chance of
admission or that they might catch a word
of what was said. Members of the house
and other entitled to the privilege crowded
In upon the floor of the senate until every
foot of available space fva.s occupied.
The melancholy circumstances attending
Senator Thurston's trip to Cuba undoubted
ly added to tho interest in what he might
have to say; and it is not exaggeration to
stale that not in tho history of the Ameri
can senate has a speech been more closely
followed or more attentively listened to.
At the beginning the vice president read
the rule.-, of the senate, which declare
that upon the slightest demonstration or
applause tho galleries will be cleared.
Warning Ignore!.
But despite this warning several times
during Senator Thur ton’s recital of the
conditions and his view of this nat'ou’s
duty, there were manifestations of ap
pi.an. e. These were, however, quickly
hushed.
But when the senator from Nebraska
reached tho portion of his speech where
he declared ayainst tho voice of the m0n0..-
. rs; where in ringing voice ho de
manded li"i those whoso loyalty is to tho
dollar shall stand aside while the men
wos? loyalty to t! ■ flag come to the front;
when he declared that the republican par
ty ought to be swept from the face of
the earth if it hesitates Iti its duty because
of any undue anxiety of the welfare of the
neeitmill;.' •••! wealth of the nation, il looked
ns if no rules would hold that crowd in
The s.-ene was intensely sensational, not
only from the )';.•■ ; that tbe.se words fell
from the lips of tin: man who presided
over the convention which nominated Mc-
Kinley, but because as lie spoke lie turn
ed directly toward tho scats occupied by
Sett..tors Hanna, l-lisTis and Hale, and

--fcu’ls in the first instance to the exiiosr.re

He had concluded, however, that, tin

Ve.rmot’- (Mr. I’ro< mr), but Is v.as even
convinced that bo had understated the
facia.
Mr. Thurst m then tersely summarized his
obs< r • > d i-oni lusl ns a . follows:
Afier thro-, years of warfare and the
use of t.’1.0.00n Spauf.-b trooiis, Spain mu’, lost

incss there is neither cultivation nor
railway operation except under strong
Spanish military protection or by con
sent of the revolutionists in considera
tion of tribute paid.
Under the Inhuman policy of Weyler not
less than 400,000 self-supporting, simple,
peaceable, defenseless country people were
driven from their honr.-'s in the agricultural
of tho Spanish provinces to the
cities and Imprisoned upon the barren
oukslde the residence portions of
these cities and within the lines of en
trenchment established a little way be
yond. Their humble homes were burned,
their fields laid waste, their implements of
husbandry destroyed, their live stock and
food supplies for the most pari, confiscated.
Most of these people were old mon, women,
and children. Slow starvation was tiieir
Inevitable fate.
A conservative estimate indicates
that 210.000 of these people have al
ready perished from starvation.
The government of Spain has never
contributed eno dollar to house, shel
ter, feed or provide medical attention
for those of its own citizens. Such a
spectacle exceeds the scenes of the In
ferno, ns painted by Dante.
Thera has bcm no amelioration o. th.
situation except through the oharlty o. the
people of the United States. T.iero has
been no dlmlnuitlon lathe death rate among
thwe reconeentrados except :-s the death
supply Is constantly diminished. There .s
no relief and no hope, except t hrough t
continued charity of the American people,
until peace (has -been fully restored in the
island. ,
Spain cannot put an end to the exls..ng
conditions. She cannot conquer the Insur
gents. She cannot re-establish her sov
ereignty over any considerable portion of
the interior of the Island. The revoluiion
ists, while able to maintain the.mnolv‘‘s.
cannot drive the Spanish army from the
fortilii-d seacoast towns.
The situation then, is not war as wo
understand It, but a chaos of devasta
tion and depopulation of undefined
duration, whose end no man can see.
In detailing the Incidents and reciting the
facts that came under <h!s observation, Mr.
Thurston said he had no desire to deal in
horrors.
“If I had my way,” said he, I would
shield them in public even if by photo

Teo Date for Recognition.
Mr. Thurston briefly l adverted to the
propositions of recognizing the belligerency
or the independence of the Cubans qn]y to
Bay that it was too late for ei'tiiter. As to
annexation he isald:
“Hod forbid. .( would oppose annexation
with my latest breath. The people of
Cuba arc not our people; they cannot as
similate with us, and beyond all that I am
utterly anil unalterably opposed to any de
parture from the declared policy of the
fa fliers wl’Jcih would start this republic for
the first lime upon a career of conquest
and dominion utterly at variance with the
declared purposes. Lot the world under
stand tliat the United States does not pro
pose to annex Cii'b.i; that it i« not. seeking
a. foot of Cuban soil or a dollar of Spanish
treasure."
As t * tiie p’.m for the United States to
guarant-e Cuban purchase bonds, Mr.
Thur. :on flecla red:

The Hancock ROT# RY mSC PLOW.
('AR7I’.RSVI;.I,E, Ga , February 25th, ISSB.
Dear Sirs—Klondike has struck the Georgia farmer.
1 he Hancock Rol<ary Disc Plow you are furnishing is .a veritablegold
mine to the farmer It’s a thing of jr yto see it turn, subsoil and pulverize
our land. I have been trying 1 > turn successfully the red land on nw farm
on the Etowah river for eight years, bought ;tli kinds of plows, paving as
much as $(>0.00 for some of them, but never until your plow was nut into
my field have I seen the work done right. The work of this plow is so
thorough and satisfactory, tliat 1 candidly say !o r the g-sud cf our farmeis
and the increase; of our crops, we will save double the price of each plow
the first year. Very Respectfully, Sam I’. Jones.
The Static Normal and Industrial Collegk,
Greensboro, N. G , Mar.-i: icgh. 1898.
De a r Sirs—l consider the Hancock Rotar'f iTsc ’.’low the plow rs
the future; because, with the quicker method of impro'.’ing the soil with
legumes, such as cow peas, field peas, tares, etc , the ordinary mouldboard
plow cannot run unaided and. do good work. With tl; ■ .Hancock Rotary
Disc Plow we can gradually or at or.ee add to the cl pih of our soil; it has
power to break up land that has for generations beer, trampled under the
old system of shallow plowing and return the greatci the
soil toward the bottom of the furrow.
Deep plowing and a deep soil is the coming method of fanning, for
these two reasons: 1st —A herd subsoil prevents U - r.tion of r .
A loose subsoil admits the rains and conserves th-m for future ii?;'. In
times of drought, this excess of water always at a sale distance below ‘he
growing crop is, through cappi! ary action, drawn n :
a crop is assured. 2nd—A deep loose and rich soil achn;;:; air and warmth,
penetrating downward, and added root growth is -.icui-d.
