latter days nothing more IN effect than q

! guise OF revenue bill, transferred their
| hard-earned substance from the pockets q
consumers and workers into the Golfers OF

as tho special object of their consideration

TIE TARIFF AND THE FARMER.
Mr.. Colquitt went on to discuss the pro-
visions of both bills with reference 10 agri-
cultural products, in order to show the
futilty OF the proposed duties on farm
produce 80 far as any benefit to the farmers
was concerned.
Mr.. Colquitt spoke of the decay of the
farming industry in the New England
States and some portions of Pennsylvania
and said that while the farmer bore his
burdens patiently, all attempts to handl-
cap him by weights which he could not
carry ought TO be denounced. The natural
risks of the farmers calling were always
grave enough, and no man had q right
to say that he must assume burdens
and pay tribute to help out the
profits Of other business ventures.
The American farmers were being made
conscious Of their wrongs. From all parts
of the land they were coming together
They were joining hands IN organization
and cooperation. They demanded that
their rights be respected and that justice
be done. They insisted upon their right
to the profits Of their own industry, and
they declared that they would no longer
bear most of the burdens OF society ana
the Government. Endowed with good,
practical sense, vigorous IN character,
moral in habits, lovers OF home and ITS
traditions, the farmers OF America would
never allow themselves TO be degraded TO
the condition of the tlllers or the soil III
India and Egypt. From his heart
he wished them success and babe them
God-speed. BY destroying monopoly,
by judiciously distributing the pub
lie burdens. by stopping prohigacy
in expenditures. by economy in admins
tration, by reducing taxation. by consti-
tutional and legitimate increase OF the
currency. the condition of the agricultural
class would be greatly improved. He pro-
tested against the doctrine that 1t was the
! duty of the Government 20 aid private
enterprises He knew of no political
necromancy that invested legislation with
creative power. There was no omnlpotent
power in legislation. IL could not by a
| touch of an enchanter's wand transmute
dust into gold. clothe poverty with riches
or dffuse wealth and happiness over the
land.

REEDS ARKANSAS THORN.

Congressman Rogers, of Arkansas. is the
worst thorn at present in the side of old
Boss Reed. Hardly day passes that Judge
Rogers does not give the tyrant in the chair
a punch in the ribs. He has done much TO
fully acuuaint the country with the intense
hatred between Blaine and Reed.
The House this afternoon non concurred
in most of the Senate amendments TO the
sundry civil bill affecting Virginia and
North Carolina. The Senate increased
some of the items for lighthouses in these
two States, but Watchdog" Cannon
wants to knock them all out.
When the amendment was reached pro-
viding for the construction and establish
ment of a lightship with a fog-signal at
Frying-Pan shoals. coast of North Caro-
lima. MIR. Dibble, of South Carolina, tried
hard to have the amendment of the Senate
agreed to. He said this was matter Of
the greatest importance to the Atlantic
Coast trade. By vote of 81 to SO the
House refused to concur. The Senate ap-
propriated $4,000 for Frying shoals.

ing bill he would feel ashamed TO look the

from an article in O New York paper TO

they are in tho United States. lie men,

There were about ffty-six good
ministers in my coach when
/ left Fulton, KY, on the 9Th inst.
We were enroute to Fort Worth
to attend the Southern Baptist AS

Spring Palace in that city.
The ministers had the brains and
[ had the money, and with this
combination we had a most de-
