Pitchfork' Statesman Challenges in Vain the People of Wisconsin To Adopt Their Share of Negroes. i Madiaou. July X. Senator R. i Tillman, of South Carolina, to-night matched hia keen wit snd So hern sar casm against the fin legal mind and Western manners of Senator J.

R. Burton, of Kansas. Thai fiery Sou thorn Senator was unpopular at first wfth the audience of R.OuO people, but at Uee close of the debate the Impression seemed to prevail that he had the better of the argument. Tb sub ject af discussion was the" negro problem. Senator Tillman said the colored people owed all the 'progress they bad made In America to th fact that they were once In i bondage and that to South had nourished them Into whatever Industry, virtue and nteillgenre they ever attained; tbat th North went to war to "free th niggers' first and to "8 the Union afterward i that the Republican party played th friend of the black in order to get black vote that tha greatest disturbing element In the problem waa the fact that certain people of tbe North, affecting motives of charity, Christianity and humanitarianlsra.

were ttempting to fcoke their "great, long Yan kee noses" into the business of the South- em States tha were equal to the problem hat there would be no danger of over whelming unless the Northern Influence brings about a war of termination. SIDI A suooasTiow. He aaked tha audience to hold an after meeting to form a negro emigration society for the purpose of bringing to Wisconsin mni anofion negroes, the proportionate of the state of the nation's "negro population. The after -meeting did not fle- etop, Senator Burton that the negroes had apparently grown more degraded and more criminal than before the war. but said It was th fault of the South, lack of schools nd tha "cucherlng" of the negroes out of their constitutions! right by the Southern httea.

He ald In education lay th olu- ton of the problem, and Senator Tillman greed with Mm. but said that th South ould take up tnni rather than allow the orth to force an Impossible social or pollt leal eonalltv between the white ana nrgoes In the Southern Btstes. The' "pitchfork statesman" ssid that the nite.l States I barred Chinese from Its gstes because jot me min Mona-oliau race and the ImposslbiUty of hineae ever becoming the social or polit ical equals of 'Americans: and. -the Inferiority Is greater atid the Impossibility more Impossible with respect to tbo negroes, and particularly thei Southern negroes." he dei clared. Senator Burton laid stresa en the great possibilities thsj lay In the negroes.

Thefr capacity for development, he said, had been proved In (every Northern state and not only In the North but In the very heart of the South, at! Tuskegee. Booker T. Washington, a black man. had demonstrated there for several years that the negro, when. given the advantages of properly admtnlstcrrd education could outstrip the whites in the moral and Industrial world.

OlVENj THEIR DESERTS. Senator Tillman said the negroes were recognized in the! South when they deserved and sometirm- when they did not deserve it. mentioning the recipients of t'nitod States eaeAitive appointments. Senator Tillman" said the! reople of the-North were as bad as the South in their handling the negroes who committed unspeakable crimes. When a orsro up here shows the outcrop-pings of the instincts of his Inferior race." he said.

you mob. string. lynch, burn and outrage humanity with him. It makes a mighty big difference whose family fc. whose home Is entered, whose wife or daughter Is the victim.

You men of the North ore not slow to act when your women are outraged, and 1 want to aay you are th men to do It. If you bad as many negroes as we do in South Carolina yon would feel as I 4o. and your people would sustain your sTtH-negro Senators as my people susiair This was tbe first of a series of debates between Senator Burton and Tillman.
