ing our foreign commerce by aiding steam
ship lines with small sum, just as we
have aided internal commerce on railroads
with a vast sum, originates with the Amer
lean free trader. Mr.. Gladstone cannot
fall to see how advantageous the success of
this free trade effort in the United States
must prove to Great Britain. The steady
argument of the free trader Is that If the
steamship lines were established, we could
not increase our trade because we produce
under our protective tariff nothing that can
compete in neutral markets with articles
of the like kind from England How then
can the free trader explain the fact that

the same points. The difference Is not
great, but it il In favor of the English
shipper across the seas, and not of the

WASHINGTON Letter.
(From our regular Correspondent.

WASHINGTON, D. G. Aug 21, $780,
Can the Federal election bill and the
tariff bill be both passed by the senate at
this session? Senator Quay thinks one
or the other is bound to be sacrificed
hence his resolution to drop the election
bill until next winter. About three.
fourths of the Republican senators differ
with Mr.. Quay, believing that both bills
can easily be passed if the ajority of the
senate will only agree to change the rules
so as to limit debate, but there's where
the trouble comes IN. A number of the
Republican senators have up to this time
refused to vote to change the rules.
Senator Quay's resolution prescribing
the legislation to be acted upon at this
session and setting the 90th inst. to begin
voting upon the tariff bill and amend
ments was taken up in the senate yester-
day and Senator Hoar offered as a
substitute a resolution authorizing q
change in the rules so that when any
bill or resolution shall have been under
consideration for reasonable time" II
shall be in order for any senator, to
demand that debate thereon be closed.
ae also amended Mr.. Quay's resolution
by adding the Federal election bill to the
measures to be acted upon and providing
that it shall be voted upon September 4.
Mr.. Hoar then delivered a very strong
speech in favor of the Federal election
bill, and showing that the measure had
been grossly misrepresented for the
purpose of stirring up sectional strifel
He quoted from report made BY the late
8. s. Cox strongly commencing the
United States law under which Congress-
men are elected in New York, and asked
what was the objection to passing q
similar law for the entire country. He
called attention to the fact which some
gentlemen seem to have completely
forgotten, that the Republican party had
time after time promised that such law
should be enacted and quoted from
President Harrison's inaugural address
and from his first annual message; from
President Hayes second annual message
from President Garflelds inaugural
addres and from the Republican national
platform Of 1884 and 'ee.

purpose Of continuing debate on the

o'clock. I'LL be occupied by that debate,

Senator Edmunds is deeply interested in

six day ldave Of absence. Many shrewd
observes do not believe that the resolu-
ton viii ever be voted upon. They

senators. Something should be done aud
that speedily. The present state of
