tariff law signed by Washington with
duties from to 15 per cent. for
revenue and incidental protection to
infant industries; and then point to
the present tariff taxing wooden goods

dred years old, the Republican answer
in substance is, George Washington
did not know anything about what
the country needed.
When Democrats point to the
opinions OF Thomas Jefferson when in

the Senate in 1888, he said, "Now

in effect is, &" The protected msnufac

ing Clsgett contestant for Dubois seat. the
right to occupy seat in the senate during the
discussion and to speak TO the merits of his
right, was agreed to, with amendment limit
ing Clagett's time for speaking to two hours
Hale's resolution calling on the secretary OF
the treasury for copies OF the reciprocity agree
ments under the last tarif act was then taken
up and Vest moved the following amendment:
And that the secretary of state also inform the
Senate whether any steps have been taken by
the authorities to negotiate reciprocal treaty
with Mexico; and, ii 50, what had been done,
and with what result; also, that the secretary
inform the Senate II the negotiations Inaugur-
ated for the purpose aforesaid have been nusuc-
cessful, and, il 90, what had been the cause OF
failure.
Vest addressed the Senate in reply to Hale's
speech on the resolution. He said;
The discussion of the question would become
leading issue i'll the approaching national
canvass. The Democratic party had been repre-
santed by Hale as being opposed TO the policy of
reciprocty Vest denied the assertion and de-
clared that the Democratic party only opposed
sham reciprocity. The arrangement with
Brazil did not benefit the American farmer. No
act OF congress could change the inexorable
law OF supply and demand, which prevented
an agricultural people frOia purchasing agri-
cultural products. Ins market Tor American
agricultural products was in Great Britain, not
America ami sugar? Why exclude shoddy and

and believed in was simon pure Tree trade. Hale
reaa a newspaper paragraph showing the in
creased imports into Cuba Of American -four

market. Reciprocity has been made the Reuub-
lican policy. IL would go before the American
| people in the next campaign, and there was not
/ a miner, laborer, farmer or shippe: who was not
interested in its success.
| Vest replied that the fundamental doctrine Of
the Democratic party was freeF trade and larger
7 intercourse with the whole world. He con-
/ tinued:
/ The increase OF the import OF American -four
/ into Cuba proved that the Democratic party was
right and that when duties were put down <
