SUBSCRIPTION---$5.00 PER ANNUM South Carolina Semator Makes Characteristic Speech. { CRITICISES MR. CORTELYOU Expresses the Opinion That the Sec- retary of the Treasury Has Violated the Spirit of th: Law if He Has Not Violated the Law Itself. Washington, Dec. 1' .—A character- istic speech was delivered in the sen- ate by Senator Tillman. Mr. Tillman spoke on his resolution directing an investigation of twe recent bond is. sues and clearing house certificates, but he took occasion to comment on a good many matters concerning finan- cial affairs of the country, The treasury, he said, has “dumped” its money in Wall street and the coun- try has praised the patriotism of J. Pierpont Morgan “in aiding the coun- try to get a grip on itself and not let everybody go crazy and precipitate further loss and horrors on the coun- try.” Mr. Tillman said he did not know whether the criticism of the chair- man of the house committee on bank- ing and currency (Fowler of New Jer- sey) had caused the secretary of the treasury to halt in the issuance of bonds, but a change of plan seemed to have been made and he had not been able to learn how much of the pro- posed bond issue had been put out. He expressed the opinion that the secretary had violated the spirit ‘of the-law if he had not violated the law itself. | Speaking of a published interview with the president by Mayor Dahlman of Omaha, in which the president is alleged to have said that if he was responsible for the panic he was glad of it as it had brought to view the rotten condition of the country’s finances, he said: Candidate for Ananias Club. “I fear that Mr. Dahlmann is in im- minent danger of joining the Ananias club. Perhaps somebody here will use the telephone and find out about that.” He said that he would not worry ahout the panic, but he found so many facts connecting the treasury depart- ment, even the senate and the house of representatives, with Wall street that he was obliged to recognize them, especially as the farmer, the cotton planter and the manufacturer were affected. - He said he wanted to know who struck “Billy Patterson.” Mr. Tillman said he belleved that President Roosevelt was a patriot and that while he had been guilty of many -ndiscretions and said many things which in cooler moments he would have been willing to take out of print he did not believe that the president felt any satisfaction whatever in hav- ing been instrumental in the present financial paralysis, as had been charged. The senator held aloft a clearing house certificate and in loud voice called upon the senate to look at it. “Here is a specimen,” he declared, “that looks like what you call Con- federate money—shin plaster—and yet they are issued by national banks.” As between the “shin plasters” In the form of clearing house certificates and greenbacks he said he would pre- fer greenbacks based on railroad and other stocks and bonds, although they were, in his opinion, filled with water.

'IKOG .30, 'NOW MEETS APPROVAL - Design of New $20 Gold Pleces Math: rlally Modified. Philadelphia, Dec. 18—The new $20 gold pleces, so designed as to better conform with the tastes of bankers, 18 now in circulation. The new de. slgn substantially conveys St. Gau- dens' ideas, but has been altered in detail to such an extent that praise and admiration has supplanted the criticism which broke out several ‘weeks ago when the original coin left the Philadelphia mint. The new double eagle can be stacked quite as easily as any other coin. The high rellef to which bankers found objection has been greatly reduced: though both sides are artistically con- cave, the eagle and the goddess stand. ing out boldly. The new design is virtually a com: promise with regard to the “panta looned” eagle. It cannot be said that the designer dispensed with the leg adornment of the eagle, vet those who found objections to this feature have uo further grievance, as the legs are DAYS OF DIZZINESS Come to Hundreds of Bemidji People.
