plans, lower the prices of their labor.
The Republican party was with the
Decorate party in reducing such
taxation as bore heavily on the people;
but it would preserve the system of
protection by tariff duties just as long
as it was necessary to give to Amer
leans fair chance in the trade and
commerce of the countrY-so as to
not invite foreigners to compete with
home industry.
The Senator from West Virginia
had referred to law in regard to
immigration under contract. 1t was
passed in the midst of the war, when
100000 Northern men were down
South. 1t was law inviting foreign
ers to help to make good the absence
of brave Union soldiers. He would
have voted then for any kind of law
to defeat the Democratic party of that
day. But he was sure that he had
voted for its repeal whenever that
matter was presented. He congratu-
lated Congress that the country was
now to have fair, square, manly
issue presented on the industrial
question: question which affected
the life, property and interests o
every citiZen-a question between
protected labor in this country and
the pauper labor of Europe-a ques-
ton between diversified industries
and that of a single (agricultural) in
terest, with few blacksmiths' and
carpenters shops scattered through
out the country.
Amid the hum of applause which
followed the close of Mr.. Sherman's
remarks, Mr.. Regean rose, and
briefly defended the Democratic party
from the charge that it had presented
no affirmative tariff proposition dur
ing the ten years that that party had
majority in the House.
The motion to refer the Presidents
message then went over without
action.

Sherman's Reply to Kenna.

In the Senate Thursday Mr..
Kenna, Of West Virginia. spoke or
the subject of the Presidents mes
sage on the surplus. revenue and
tariff matters and of Mr.. Sherman's
speech in reply thereto.
Mr.. Sherman In replying congrat.
uldted his friend from West Virginia
on having proclaimed the fact that
the ranks of the Democratic party
were closed and that distinct issue
was to be presented 10 the people.
That party had been in possession of
power in the House of Representa-
tives for more than ten years and
not a single affirmative proposition
or measure as to the tariff question
had been presented to the judgment
of the American people. If the
Democratic party had las Mr.. Kenna
declared) closed up its ranks. and if
there was to be a fair and manly con-
test between the two parties on this
great public question. he would be
delighted, but he did not believe
that this issue would be presented.
Let the Democratic ranks be closed.
let the proposition to reduce taxation
be presented and the Republican
party would be found with its old
ranks unbroken ready to accept the
issue and let it 60 to the people. But
for the Senator from West Virginia
to assail him for having expressed
views ten or twenty years ago, which
appeared to be different from those he
expressed to-day, was "rather a
small hole to creep out Of" 1t was
true since the tariff discussions of
thirty years ago he (Mr. Sherman)
might have changed his mind but
If he had not done so, under the
changed conditions and circum.
stances, he would not be worthy of Il
seat in the Senate: Applause in the
galleries. 1t was on bill to repeal
the Internal revenue taxes lin 1867
that he made the remark that the
taxes most willingly paid were those
on spirits, beer and tobacco.
So they we're then. So they are
to-dy. But, within the last few
years complaint had come. mainly
from the Southern States, against the
tax on tobacco. 1t came from the
farmers. He heedee it he obeyed
it; he regarded it, And in doing so
he only did what the Senators from
Virginia, West Virginia, Tennessee
and North Carolina ought to do. The
Republican party said that it would
not strike down any protected indus
try /; that when manufactures had
sprung up by the aid of protection, it
would not strike them down, de-
range their conduct, derange their
