against this legal outrage at the time OF
its enactment, that the effect of the
proposed rate on yarns would burden
tne wool manufacturer as well as the
people as high as 100 per cent on some

that under the bill there has been col

Mr.. Chairman, many of the friends OF

cost abroad, but the cost of transporta-

it; it makes no difference who handed
the duty money to the customs officer.
If the foreigner and not our citizen
pays the duty, why did we relieve him
from paying millions Of tax Tor us on

pay this fifty odd millions? Ii no other
good resulted from the Mckinley bill,

the tariff is tax. and tax upon the
people who consume the articles upon
which it is levied. The day that the
tax was removed from sugar the price

and half, and when he. finished Mr..
Dingiey, of Maine, took the floor to
reply OH behalf OF the minority of the
ways and means committees. He ridi-
culed the Democrats for their failure to
do more than attack three little items
in the Mckinley tariff out of $500, after
their threats and promises to sweep
every line and word of this ''unholy
tariff from the statute books and sub
stitute measure Of tariff reform

the 40 Democratic majority OF this
house, exactly what kind of a tariff bill
the Democracy would substitute for the
existing Mckinley tariff. Tie people
demand that this Democratic house
shall present such measure as they
profess to be ready to substitute for the
Mckinley tariff before election, not
after
In this situation, with the Republican
policy fully and closely set forth in the
existing law. with the representative or
the great Democratic majority i'll this
house repeating his old denuncla;iGnS
of the enormities of the Mckinley tar
if, what does the Democratic majority
OF the Ways and means committee pro-
pose as the Democratic plan of tariff re-
form? First, to place binding twine on
the free list; second, to place on the
free list bagging for cotton and hoop
iron, when manufactured into cotton
ties, and all machinery for the manu-
facture of cotton bagging; third, TO
place on the free list the farmers wool,
and abolish so much of the duty OH cloth
which is for the benefit OF the
age ad valorem duty of 80
per cent to protect the manufacturer.
Mr.. Dingley defended the Mckinley
act eloquently, and at length argued
that the three bills proposed by the
Democratic majority of the ways and
means committee could result in moth
ing but injury to the farmer. The free
wool bill, lie said. proposed free trade
for the most universal product OF the
farm and continued protection for the
manufacture of wool. 1t would GER
tainly reduce the price and destroy the
wool industry.
Continuing, Mr.. Dingley, said: "Ev-
cry evil prediction relating TO the Nc
Kinley tariff has been disproyed by the
march of events. Every prediction OF
its benefits has been made good. Pro-
lection is more than justified. The pol
icy which has done so much to make
this country the largest agricultural,
the largest mining, the largest manu-
featuring, and the most prosperous
country on the face OF the earth is here
to Stay." GGreat applause.

Growing Grapes.

Grapes are so easily multiplied from
layers and cuttings that grating onto
old stocks is not advised. Where old
ones have cultivated their usefulness
and it is still desired to continue grapes
upon the same ground, the most sue
cessful way will be to start from new
stocks. And so the tranSplanting of
roots of an old vine to another place
with the expectation OF getting fruit
sooner than from new plant will
usually be disappointing. Better leave
the old one where it is and plant new
one elsewhere. By training some OF the
low branches along the ground and COW
ering the joints with earth new shoots
and roots can soon be raised and i'll that
way and by cuttings the same variety
can be propogated to almost any extent
desirable. Nothing is gained by trying
to save long portion of the vine above
ground in transplanting, even IL CORE
spOndingly long roots are taken up with
it. Two or three good healthy buds
above ground are better than a long
reach of vine. The main thing is to
have good supply of fbrous roots. On
young plants these will be found nearer
the base than on older ones, and are,
therefore, more likely to be taken up
entire when removed. Grapes with
anything like good treatment will grow
in almost any soil, but when bones and
other slowly decOmpoSing substances
or richer earth is put in the hole with
the roots the vines will be benefited by

THE SUGAR BOUNTY.
Keen Analysis of Falsely Rated
Benefits

Keen Analysis of Falsely Rated
Benefits.
The authors of the Mckinley bill take
much credit to themselves for having
placed sugar on the free list. The finer
grades are still taxed heavily for the
benefit of the manufacturer, and he is
left with more protection by that bill
than by the rates imposed in the Mills
bill. 1t is true that fifty-Odd millions of
dollars was taken off the sugar tax, but
an Increase of duties amounting to
about S65.000,000 was put on other
things, and generally on the necessarleS
of life. They removed the sugar tax,
which vie.de eight-nintis of its behe-
fits to the treasury. and but ohe-ninth TO
the manufacturer, and placed many
millions more than the sugar tax on
other things.
Mr.. Chairman. when we reflect that
the $t2.000,000 paid in bounties Oil silks,
sugar, etc, has to be raised by the inn
position of taxes on other things where
three-fourths 90 into the manufacture
er's pocket and only one-fourth into the
treasury. it will be seen that the tax is
still burden of $4,000, 900 indirectly to
the people. and that of getting S60,0OO.-
900 of relief by this change OF tax, they
have hardly obtained S2.000,000 Of net
benefit. The whole bill was character
lied by this favoritism for the few and
merciless oppression for the many.
The consumer was never considered,
or, if ever considered at all. it was only
to ascertain how much more taxes he
could endure. The greed of the seller,
and not the need of the buyer, was the
measure Of the rate of QIitV.

VERDICT OF VOTERS,
Sweeping Victory Must Be Made

Sweeping Victory Must Be Made
to Count.
Mr.. lChairman, the question of eX-
cessive increase in the rate of taxation
has been passed upon by the people
and condemned in a manner not to be
mistaken. Never was such defeat ad
minlstered to recreant party as was
visited upon those who had passed this
measure. The people condemned it in
bulk and in detail. They relegated to
private life the leaders who had con-
ceived it and the followers who had en-
acted it. An arrogant majority was
converted into an insignificant minor
ity New England sent a majority of
Democrats here; the whole North sent
a majority; the South sent a majority.
SO overwhelming was the defeat that
if you divide the country into two sec
tons, North and South, and remove
every Democrat from the South, the
Democrats from the North would still
be in the majority. If you remove every
Democrat from the North, those from
the South would have majority over
their opponents. On the other hand,
among the Democrats who opposed it
only one in the United States who was
renominatod was defeated by the peo-
pie. The handwriting is on the wall
and is not to be mistaken. The people
have resolved-and they will make the
resolution good-that they will have
reduction in TIE rate Of taxation or a
still further reduction Of those in con-
gress who favor high taxation. We
would not avoid this conflict if we
could; we could not il we would. Let
the battle rage and the fire be bitter
until some recognition is given to the
principle that taxes should be levied
and collected for the support of govern
ment, rather than for the oppression of
the many at the behess and for the ben
eft of the few.

BIood-Bought Right Delegated to
One Man.
Our opponents have made great boasts
of the benefit they have bestowed on
the country by that portion of the tariff
bill. they passed which provides for
reciprocity" with other countries. 1t
provides for the imposition of taxes and
by the president of tie United States
alone. He may. according to this prop
osition. in his discretion and as often as
he sees fit. impose two cents pound
tax on sugar, three cents pound on
coffee, half cent a pound on hides and
10 cents a pound on tea. He may I'M
post these taxes at will and remit them
at pleasure. He is not required to con-
suit either cabinet or congress. He may
levy ST, 00o, 900 without consulting con-
greSS.
| am astounded that in a free repub
lie. where the right of taxation through
chosen representatives was bought with
blood such thing is possible as the
surrender of their right to one man.
The most sacred right the free man has
is to determine the extent and manner
of taxation. But is sad 10 reflect that
ia years after the right Of self-taXation
was substituted for taxation without
representation, some of the sons OF
these sires had so degenerated that they
were willing. without a protest. With
out even murmur, to surrender this
blood-bought right to the president of
the United States,
