TURPlE TALKS OF PROTECTION,


An incidentally Makes Attack on the
Republican Presidential Nominee.
WASHINGTON CITY, July 3,-The closing
hours of the senate session yesterday were
occupied by Turpie of Indiana with speech
on the doctrine of protection He asked
what had cheapened and pauperized labor in
India, Egypt, China or elsewhere, and as
serted that it was caused 10y the long ages of
commercial restriction and repression, the
entire inhibition of foreign traffic, a constant
seclusion and isolation of manufactures and
an exclusively internal consumption of work
and wares. And yet, he continued, it was
seriously proposed that the young American
nation should receive its lessons in political
economy and in the practical rules of its rev
enue administration from the archaic and
Wondering systems of the mikado and man.
