In the Senate.
1here was

WASHINGTON CITY, July 29.-There was
no quorum for some time after the open
ing OF the Senate this morning and Stewart
seized the opportunity to make silver
speech. Carlisle addressed the Senate on
Hale's resolution on the relative merits of
protection and a tariff tor revenue only,
replying TO the speeches of Hale and Aid
rich. The drift of Carlisle's speech, which
was fortified by facts and figures, was that
the Mckinley tariff act had not, within
the twenty-seven months covered by the
investigation of the subcommittee, re-
duced the prices OF commodities or in
creased the wages of the laborer; but, on
the contrary, had interferred with and
obstructed the. operation of the natural
laws governing the subjects. He instanced
fifteen general occupations in unprotected
industries where the average rate of wages
had gone up, and fifteen other trades in
highly protected industries where wages
had gone down. On tin plate he asserted
that the Mckinley act had paid, not to
the importer, not to the govern
ment not TO the dealer, but
directly to the Welsh plate manufacturers,
81, 629, $50, or more than half the value of
the plants of the fifty-eight tin plate
manufacturers of Wales. The Mckinley
act had proved to be not for the benefit of
American consumers. but of Welsh manu-
facturers. Carlisle was followed by Proc
tor, who attacked some of CarlIsle's posi-
tons by quoting from an interview with
Rogers, managing partner of the Wabash
tin plate mandatory. the principal point
of which was that the election of Cleve-
land would be a victory for free trade, and
the effect would be to reduce American
wages TO the level of English wages.
Sherman and Allison defended the Me-
Kinley act IN brief speeches, and Hawley
obtained the floor for tomorrow. The
anti-optIon bill was laid aside informally.
The presidents message vetoing the Nc
Garrahan land claim bill was read and
postponed until December, and the Sem
ate adjourned.

contemplated by the constitution OF the

claim of the lack Of power. The right OF
the majority 10 rule has been estab-
lished as our fathers understood 1t. and
can never be abdicated. Ii autOcratlc
power is again given TO minorities, the

attack, every act passed by the ElIty-flrsr
congress has remained unassalled by even
acts which, though done in two years, were
really the business OF more than eight
years. now stand, with a single exception,
approved by the silence of an opposition
which was wildly and rampantly vocifer-
Gus when the acts were passed. Look
over the list of legislative acts for 1890 and
1891. Compare them in intrinsic import
ance with those passed by any congress
of the century, and you will find no rival
list except that enacted by the first con-
gress OF the war, when considerations
taking hold of the very existence OF
the nation had silenced opposition,
and left patriotism unobstructed.
Our reputation. the reputation
of the Fifty-iirst congress, for
wisdom has been vindicated by the perma-
hence OF our laws. Our reputation for the
economical appropriation of the public
funds IN the interest of the people has
been more than vindicated by the appro-
priation of forty millions in addition to
what We expected-an appropriation
made by the very boosters who re-
viied Us SO triumphantly while they

Democrats Say High Tariff Injuries Agri-
culture, and Reciprocity Is q sham.


WASHINGTON CITY, July o9.-Hatch,
from the committee on agriculture, today
submitted a report on the effect of the
present tariff law on agriculture. 1t says
there has been steady decline in the
prices of farm property since the war,
while under the same law other interests
have been more remunerative and pros
porous. The report insists that under the
low tariff of 1916 agriculture enjoyed the
greatest prosperity. The result of pro-
hibitive tariff has been 10 prejudice Eu-
ropean nations, our best buyers, against
the United States. and in the retaliation
which has followed agriculture has been
done irreparable injury. The American
farmer is compelled TO sell his product in di-
rect competition with the pauper and slave
labor of Asia and Africa, which subsists on
wages averaging less than So per month.
Reciprocity is denounced as q fiimsy at
tempt 10 deceive the farmers. White, of
Nebraska, in an additional report, saws no
class OF citizens are so thoroughly handi-
capped by the protective system rs the
farmers Of the Mississippi valley engaged
in raising hogs and cattle.
Funston OF Kansas presented minority
report. II says the fact that the Demo-
Gratis in the House, with a majority of l5S.
are about 10 adjourn without any effort 10
repeal the Mckinley law should settle the
question as TO whether or not. in the opin-
ion of majority OF the House, the law IS
wrong and oppressive. The minority re-
port cites the benefits Of reciprocity. and
asserts that the statement that farms have
shrunk in value is matter OF mere asser-
ton. for which there Is no data. In no
other age. no other country and no other
time in this country has there been law
of economic character passed in which the
interests of any class OF persons were more
carefully guarded than those Of the farmer
in the Mckinley law.
