3lfE 33!.3fF BILL KILLED.

9tfH- hIf1Fr DILL hfLLED.
The defeat OF the bill of Mr. Morrison, ON
Tuesday last, in the House of Representa-
tiyes, may well be taken by the Republicans
as a grand rout of the principles of De-
mocracy and affords to the protectionsts
such comfort and consolation as to give them
renewed hope and energy to battle for
longer continuance of political power run
in the sole interest of nfonopilies and cor
porations, at the expense of the agricultnrist
and by levying tribute upon labor.
The defeat of this reform measure is at
tributed to the Democratic representatives
from manufacturing and mining districts in
the North and the wool-growing interests
in Ohio. The few scattering Democrats
from other States who Joined with the Re-
publicans TO accomplish this result, such as
Mr.. Findley from Maryland and George d.
Wise from Virginia, are not even compli-
mented with "thank you" If the future
can be judged by the past, if the legislatures
of Maryland and Virginia were in session
to-day the resolutions passed in reference to
VIM. Malone would be supplemented by
the names of these two honorable Demo-
Gratis, and without claiming TO be prophet,
or the son Of a prophet, we prognOsticate that
the names of Messrs Findley and Wise,
like many others of the same ilk, will be
found missing from the list of honorable
Representatives after the next election, and
repudiated by the party they claim to rep
resent
AS for the action of Mr.. Randall, we were
not surprised we always accorded to the
representations of him undoubted veracity,
and Puck had already prepared us for the
very estimable and honorable position Mr..
Randall occupied in this contest We trust
he will be generous enough to provide and
care for the eight thousand laborers just
thrown out of employment by the closing
of certain coal mines in Pennsylvania, not
only by providing for their personal wants,
but prove to their satisfaction that their pre-.
sent condition is the result of tariff reform,
as he would most undoubtedly have done
had the measure been adopted.
The Republicans may rejoice that the
Democrats, as party, are divided, but the
Democrats can rejoice that the facts have
gone broadcast over the land that by direct
and indirect taxation the people are being
compelled, year by year, to contribute i'm
mense sums of money not for the support
of government, not to pay the national
debt, but sums far in excess of that, to be
thrown away or spent for Legitimate pur-
poses
The Democrats can rejoice that the words
Tariff Reform" can be heard throughout
the length and breadth of the land 1t is
written on the ploughshare and the sickle
and engraved in the hard and brawny hand
of the laborer, and when the day of reck
onmg comes the question will not be settled
by minority OF Republicans, backed by a
Findlay from Maryland, Wise from Vir.
ginia, and Randall from Pennsylvania
but the same people that elected those
treacherous men to represent them will be
heard from, not through men like these, but
through men whose political principles
stand higher than price

Of Ohio.
aHnd want to have you and those who
agree with you on the record" continued
Mr.. Hurd. 81 had hoped that ne democrat
on the floor of the House would say that
there ever was democratic platform which
would net allow the people to take off the
war taxes Of twenty-five years ago. Loud
and long continued applause on the demo-
cratic side An if that be the meaning of
the gentleman If that be the construction
he gives to the Ohio platform, then say
here and now that shall appeal 20 the gal
liant democracy of my native State TO repud
late the heresy of that platform, and have
no fear of the resultant it will place itself
where it ought to be, close to the great ma
tional heart of the democrats of the nation.
Renewed applause.
"Some gentlemen say that it is not policy
to agitate this question now. Ii is too late
for democrat to say that. There is moth
ing in the principle OF this bill which takes
off the taxes Of the war and gives the people
cheap fuel and shelter TO which any gentle
man should object. From time immemor-
ial it has been the usage that the majority
of party shall determine what it is exped-
lent and polite to do, and this side in eau
Gus, by two-thirds vote, has declared that
it is expedent to consider the bill. Even if
1t had not you could not prevent the con-
sideratlon and discussion of the questions
that are presented in this bill. Neither the
admonitions nor the force of man could stay
it. The agitation has already begun. The
people, long silent and quiet, are moving
now. The culture and chivalry of the ma
ton, long anxious for this hour, are ready
to take the lead. The conflict cannot long
be delayed, and then the result cannot be
doubtful. Private extortion must yield TO
public rights; selfish interests must be sac
rificed to the general good, and each indi-
viduaps manhood must be left free, unhin
dered and unhaltered by the government,
to work out its own destiny. And in the
glorious result of the struggle am sure this
protective grant Of robbery and extortion
will disappear from the land, never again to
offend America or darken her fair fields
with its shadow" [Applause.l
