and yet when the polls closed Mr. Til
den had over 1000 more votes in the
ballot boxes than Mr.. Hayes. In the
following April, when President Hayes,
with others, requested him TO go to
Louisiana to reconcile the politi-
cal differences existing there,
{ he accepted the disagreeable
task because he knew the good work
Gen. Grant had commenced by turning

Voted for Harrison.
Mr.. MacVeagh said he voted for Pres
ldent Harrison in 1888, but all his hopes
have been disappointed, and from that
day to this the conviction has been
steadily growing on his mind that the
general tendency of the Republican
party was not only inimical to the
best interests of the country. but that,
unless checked, was sure to result
not only making the poor poorer, but
the rich more selfish and corrupt, and
therefore less patriotic. The speaker
said he cannot vote second for Har-
rlSon because of the buying of the Nc
Kinley bill by manufacturers and the
action of the present administration
towards Chile.
Mr.. MacVeaghlthen proceeded toreply
TO Senator John Sherman'S speech, de-
llvered at the same place last Saturday
night. He appealed from the Senator
Sherman of 1892 to the Senator Shtr-
man of 1872, when the latter declared
tine lower duties then in force, taken
altogether, are
Far in Excess
of what they we're before the war, and
they have been three times larger in
creased since the passage of the Morrill,
tariff act of 1865. The result OF such du
ties is to secure to certain workman
higher wages than can be earned i'm
other kindred employnents. Such ex-
cesSive protection not only ceases to
verify production, but forces the labor
into protected employment.
Senator Sherman, in his recent
speech, alSe set forth to antagoniZe the
action of the Democratic party in its eff
forts to enlarge the free list, forgetting
that if it had succeeded in so doing it
would, in respect 70 refined sugar,
binding Irvine, and other ar
ticles, have only been carrying
INTO practical effect the declaration
OF his own policy as made by him i'll the
Seilate WIlell tIe MCKINNEY Dlll was De-
ing passed. The speaker then referred
to Senator Sherman not abiding to the
cordage or sugar trusts "Or any of the
illegal corporations now plundering the
people in utter contempt of
All Laws OF Morals,
In this state few hundreds of its
laborerS can be employed in industries
which can be said to be benefited by
high duties upon raw material. The
farmers must sell on the pIice fixed in
Liverpool, but he is confronted by the
fact that the Mckinley bill puts an arti-
fetal price upon the Irvine he must use.
The speaker then dwelt upon the
sugar trusts, the reckless pension legis-
lation which followed the Mckinley
bill.
In conclusion, Mr.. MacVeagh advo-
Gated practical and permanent reform
of the civil service: lower rates OF du-
ties upon imports; free raw materials;
the requiring of trusts to obey the law,
because contempt OF the law by the
rich is sure to breed hatred of it | the
poor: the placing of the pension system
upon basis of justice; single safe
and stable standard of value, and hop
ing for better knowledge of the divine
truth that tine Industrial and political
organization of a great and free people
must have a moral basis for moral
growth.
