Reagan Raising q Rumpus,

Washington special: A most unusual,
astounding and shameful scene was pre-
aented In the senate to-day. Senator
Reagan of Texas, who was jeff Davis
secretary of the treasury and postmaster
general. his bosom friend and counsel
lor, made passionate and earnest de-
tense OF slavery, the confederaoy and
secession. MIR. Reagan is the most
prominent leader of the confed raoy
now living except JEFF Davis, and is
probably better qualified than any other
person TO speak on the subject. He de-
clared that the south did not TEsss.se. for
the propagation of slavery, but for it's
preservation, tnat the south fought to
repel the interference OF the north, that
the south preferred to die battling for
its rights rather than live and permit
the north to intermeddle with them He
declared that George Washington, Han.
cock, Jefferson and all the others who
fought for our present Independence and
| who framed the constitution
were responsible for slavery, and that
the way the federal govern
ment should have proceeded to abolish
slavery was by the purchase OF the ne.
! groes. Senator Reagan has become

There is rumor ahoat that Professor
Harden is constructing another speech
and that it will be produced at the next
opening. This speech will differ from
the other one in the omission OF the
paragraph whioh alleges that COM
munist is far more desirable member
OF society than protectiouist. It is
conceded by the professor that this re-
mark fatigues his audiences much more
than the dreary array OF free trade
figures they can not understand. The
sgriculturalists of Dakota are not yet
ripe for communistic teachings.

greatly exercised over the proddings of
Senator Blair of New Hampshire, who
said thet if the south was victim of
slavery, as Senator Reagan claimed, il
was wiling and anxious victim. That
the south did not simply contend for
the preservation of slavery; it demanded
q constitutional right to propagate it
throughout the north and in the terri
tories. He instapced che effort to do this
in Kansas which resulted in the difficulty
OF 1896. He reminded Mr., Reagan
that the democratic side OF both she
senate and the house had, in every in
stance, brought about sectional debates
in this congress and that such men as
he, Reagan. were continually insulting
the north by their sectional hsrapguss.
Reagan spssnE 10 his feet excitedly and
said that he never insulted the north,
that he might have lnsulted the republi.
can party, to which Mr.. Blair replied
that If q party could be section the
republican party was the north as the
north had organized shat party to strike
down the crime of slavery.

"EcsRY million of dollars collected at our
Gust )m houses for duties upon imported
arti lies and paid into the public treasury
represent many millions more, which, though
nev,r reaching the national Treasury, are
paid By our ctiz ens as the increased cost of
domestic productions resulting from our

So sage President Cleveland in mis- letter
of acceptance. Every word of 1t is true;
and the sooner the voters believe it, and act
upon that belief in casting their votes, the
better it will he for them. The tariff tax is
not only added to the price of imported
goods, but to that of similar goods made in
this country. a part of the former reaches
the treasury, but not a cent of the latter
goes beyond the pockets of the protected
manufacturers.
