Incarnation of the protective policy,
Is indicated to the country that,
whether the tariff was perfect or not,
the Democratic party was not
a fit instrument TO perfect it. The
mis- SION of the protective tariff was to
place the people of our country on an
eouslity with the producers Of the old
world. Protective taritt dealt with
conditions and not with boundary
lines, From those nations against
which the United States hold the
Coign of vantage, no odds were asked,
when the Repu olicaus found the con-
ditions which would strike down our
indu stries and the rate Of wages of our
workingmeu, then they erected wall
of prot ct on. In skill and cunning,
the American workmen asked
no odds. The capital, the plants.
starvatiol wages were not here, and
never Woald be, so long as the Republi-
can party wrote the laws of the country.
Capital had no advantage of labor.
Capital could wait longer for it's divi-
dends than labor could, for its break
fast. He made comparison between
Ohio, where protection prevailed.
and the States where the fire.
trade philosophy existed. greatly
to the advantage of his own State. He
created much laughter by reading an
extract from the London Times de-
cIaring that the only time England has
an use for an IrishmRn is when he emf
CRATES to America and votes for free
trade, which he almost invariably does.
In conclusion. he said that the issue
had been fairly up between the two
parties. Let there oe no juggling. lei
the resolutions In the national platform
so fairly present the issue that they
would attest that they were drawn by
patriotic statesmen and not by temper
izing, huckstering politicians.

Senate. Inquiries will, if authorized by
the Senate, begin at once; in fact, a
