In leedlqg up to hi address "Shall th

criticised Mayor Dunn actio in rfuatng
to preside at th meeting. "I have been
told that I have been snubbed by th mayor
of thl city" said Mr- Tinman .;
"I never saw Mayor Dunn In my lit. I
did not ask him to be here to mtrodao me
to thl audience nor did I ask any on Is

those xradoua ladles who planned thl meet-
ing to secure money for the Chicago Uhloa
hospital who requested .Mayor Dunn the)
creature of a political party to come tor-

nexation of Cuba but In view .of th fact
that I could not discuss that subject With-
out discussing th race guaatlon I am going
to go at th matter hammer and tonga
straightforward Ilk a man. Therefore. I .
shall dlacuea the rac problem pur and
simple from aa American. Standpoint and
not from a Cuban standpoint Owing to
my experience with th qoeatlon and the
dillgnt study I have mad et It I believe
I am better qualified than any other man
in America to discus this question. I am
going to base my appeal oa the tact not on
theories. N '

Finally. Mr. Tillman seemed to loee'hia .
temper and exclaimed: "Oh. abut your
mouth; you don't know th A B C of thla
thing. I forgot forty years ago more than
you vr knew."
"Tou make up your mind that equality
beneath the law which will furnish equal
guarantee Is right and should be enforced
notwithstanding Its result If this law was
enforced It would reault In tw State at
least boms dominated by negroea. Wall
tour other State would be so near being
governed by th negro that there would be '
practically aa equal division ot off."" '
