An orator in every sense of the u.-r.l und well informed on the subject, Towno made, a wonderful presentation of his case. He attracted the whole House by his voice and hold them by his oratory. He Invited or rather courted Interruptions and questions, an l th. more promlnmt tho man tho mory r ruly was Towne to cngago him It was something like the first appearance of William J.

Bryan got an hour tc debate ono of these bills and made such an Impression that he spoko for tbr. e hour: Like Towne. he made a place for himself by that one effort. With Williams and Towns the Democrats havo a trio which will bo hard to beat. A group of Senators were talking; about the campaign whlt-h Senator Carmack is making down in Tennessee and somo ono remark. I thnt no doubt some very warm sentences wire being uttered by the curly-haired Carmack aa ho li given to bitter Invective and has a choice vocabulary, "I have always condemned .Carmack as being be-ing too vindictive and vituperative in his utterances," ut-terances," solemnly asserted Senator Tillman It took about half a minute for that declaration declara-tion to sink ln, as the balance of the group wore amazed. Then they roared with lough-tl lough-tl r. f..r Carmack In ft rag' nnd with malicious Intent could never equal Tillman In tho matter mat-ter ..f Nielous declamation and vindictive ns-Kirtlon ns-Kirtlon when the S-.uth Carolina Senator really real-ly wanted to say things. Carmack's sentences are more polished and his utterances more fi.htli- but no on.- un mistake Tillman. Plain Anglo-Saxon, terse and strong, he uses, and you don't need a dictionary to understand what l.e means. .
