house and its spectators for five hours.
The Presidents gallery and the diplo-
matte gallery were both f!led. Many
| Senators were on the floor and the ladies
were also sprinkled here and there behind
the bar OF the house, sttired in gay
spring raiments making the scene most
picturesque. Bouquets and flowers in 8
variety OF shapes were placed upon the
desks Of Mr.. Carlisle and Mr.. Reed. The
interest In the occasion was intense.
| After Mr.. Baker and Mr.. Breckenridge
had their little tilt Mr.. Reed arose. The
/ attention Of the vast audience was con-
centrated upon him. He drew . picture
Of what would result from the enactment
Of such legislation as that proposed by
the Democrats, and he charged hatparty
with being afraid to rally round
ANY DEFINITE POLICY
and wanted to know why in the absence
of any positive convictions Of their own
they did not follow those OF their leader,
the President. With style peculiarly his
own, Mr.. Reed poured forth volley after
volIey OF sarcastic invec.ives and closed
his speech with smile which fairly
made the audience rise in their seats,
arraigning the Democratic party for CALI
ing protection robbery. Mr.. Reed fn-
ished his speech st O'Clock and was
greeted with shouts Of applause.
As Speaker Carlisle rose to reply q
storm Of enthusiasm greeted him. he
said that if protection was wrong, then s
tariff for revenue WAS wrong, and we
should advocate
ABSOLUTE FREE TRADE.
ri might remark" said Mr.. Carlisle,
"thst II protection was right then abso-
lutte protection should exist, q Chinese
wall should be built around this country
II protection WAS carried to its end In
China" He then referred to the surplus,
every dollar Of which, he said, hsd been
wrung from the working men. There
was no financial condition so dangerous
to the country as the present one. Its
| inevitable Ell !ct WAS to encourage waste.
He stated that no monaTchisl power
would tax Its subjects to the extent OF
| $136, 900, 900 more than ths needs OF the
government.
At the conclusion Of Speaker Carlisle's
speech, he was the recipient OF pro-
lopged applause and every one OF his col
leagues near him grasped his hand
| warmly.
Thus ended the tariff debate which
will be long remembered in the annals OF
history. What nextP is the question
asked on every side, and within the next
four weeks final answer will probably
be given.
