A GREAT DAY.

The proceedings In the nationa
house OF representatives ON Friday
were decidedly the most interesting
since the beginning OF the tariff de.
bate. Three notable speeches were
made. tho first being by Randall. the
great Democratic protectionist, the
second by Mckinley, one Of the bes,
equipped and most thoroughly in
formed defenders Of the tariff. and the
third by Breckenridge OF Kentucky
one of the most active of the coteris
Of southern politicians who, with the
help OF the administration. are en-,
deavoring 10 break down the American
system of protection and to substitute
in It's stead the British system of free
trade.
Randall has been longer regarded as
. national leader of the Democratic
party than almost any other man now
in public life. He was three times
elected speaker OF the house of repre-.
sentatives. For years he was the al.
most undisputei leader of the Demo
cratic party In Pennsylvania. At two
national conventions he has been
yotcst for as a candidate for president
He was the most trusted lieutenant ol
the late Democratic leader. Samuel J.
Tilden. In short he has been regard.
ell throughout the United States as
one OF the national leaders OF the
Democracy and as one of the most
able and foscihie defenders 81 Demo
cratic principles, For two reasons,
however. Randall Is out sf favsr with
those who control the machinery oi
his party, lie served throughout t,s
war a. a private Ia the union army,
This alone would he almost enough &c
diseTeait him with the Cleveland ad
mlnis,Fatioa. but in addition 20 his un,
partisan opinions in regard n the war
Randall is firm believer in the policy
Of protection 10 American industries
In the last TIVE congresses he has ies
the protection Democrats and has pre-
vented the saoceSs OF the efforts mad,
by Morrison and other free traders Il
destroy the saris.

that Randall mast he crushed. III,

Mr. X. X. Bowker. The editor of the Press
was out upon that occasion, and Mr. Bow
ker never appeared again. This clothing
was sent on to Boston and shown to the
audience assembled TO hear the debate be-
tween Butterworth aud Wheeler. The free
traders are too cowardly to accept the chal-
