Fv,Ss Mr. SIMMONS is eninently acquainted with
the Tariff subject Though every good speech on

90 much interest into his remarks that the details
were forgotten in the unassuming eloquence with
which he denounced the new bill He said no
working man ever would have produced such bill
He said that the man who prepared that bill had
never earned dollar by productive labor. 1t was
an attempt TO break down the industry OF the coun-
try at the command OF party.

protective system He had never inherited dol

the laboring men FOX thirty years. 1t was the sys

tenn which the free labor OF the country would
stand by.
