Waving the Bloody Shirt in Congress.

Not since 1861 have such violent
and defiant threats and buster been
heard in Congress rs during the pres.
ent session. Patterson OF Tennessee,
Bankhead OF Alabama, and Turner OF
Georgia, have taken rank as the most
radical and defiant OF the ex. Confeder.
ates in proclaiming implacabie hatred
OF Union soldiers and fixed determi.
nation not much longer peaceably to
submit to "paying pensions to the
men we fought"
This last outbreak OF secessionist
hatred of Union veterans was wholly
unprovoked and its apologists will la.
Dor in vain to find anything to excuse
or palliate 1T. 1t was not called forth
by any word or act OF the Republicans
in congress that could be construed as
an assault on any interests or persons
in the South or that could possibly
rutlle the sensibilities and tempers OF
the Confederate Brigadiers. Hav-
ing done nothing to provoke these
outbursts the Republicans, determin.
ed to keep their skirts clear. permit.
ed them to go unanswered, and as the
ex.Confederates spoke on their own
motion and without provocation or
reply and had the floor entirely to
themselves it remains for the people
to say who isresponsiblefor the "wav.
ing OF the bloody shirt" in the present
Congress.
The e1.confederates were so lacking
any just cause OF offense and so who'll.
lY without warrant for assalling union
veterans and their pensions that they
had to 60 far out OF their way to in.
Ject their threats and denunciations
into speeches on that unrelated and
disconnected measure, the free silver
bill. 1t was only by an extreme stretch
OF parliamentary courtesy that they
were allowed to proceed since they
were not speaking to any matter be.
fore the house, and if the rules had
been enforced they would have been
choked of as trying to drag in by the
ears matters wholly foreign to the
questions under consideration. Even
when these insolent and outrageous
threats had been forced into the silver
debate therepublican members smoth.
cred their natural indignation and al
lowed the disunionist threats to 20
unanswered aud pass in silence to the
people OF the country for the condem.
nation they merit. Who, then, is to
BIZ held responsible Tor the "nauntine
Of the bloody shirt" IN this congress?
The notice which the Bankheads,
Pattersons, and farmers have served
on the north is as explicit as any thing
said in 1861 and breathes the same
spirit in every line. They declare that
the South is opposed alike to the pro.
lection OF northern labor and in
dustry and to the payment ofpensions
to union veterans and will not much
longer endure either the tariff or the
pension laws. They warn the north
of the wrath to come. AS plainly as
IN 1861 and almost asinsolently they
assert their doctrine OF rule or ruin
and threaten q disruption OF the un-
ion if the desires of "the people" of
the southern states are not met.
The ex confederates have put their
demands on record in plain terms and
no lickspittle northern democratic or
spanielllke mugwump can claim that
republicans have provoked or had
ought to do with this "waving OF the
bloody shirt in the present congress.

paid in the American mills, as
shown by official statistics, quoted
by Mr.. Dazell in his able report on the

country. The price now is only one.
half as much as was asked ten years
| ago.
COTTON TIES AND BARREL HOOPS.
On cotton ties the bill is a most
extraordinary one. Cotton ties are
made OF the same material as "barrel
hoops OF iron or STEEL" but the uemo.
Gratis propose to retain the present
duty on "barrel hoops OF IRON or
Steel" while taking it off altogether
when these hoops are used for tieing
cotton, though, as q matter of fact,
the cotton ties are OF more highly
finished product than the barrel hoops.
The reason for this distinction in fav.
or OF cotton ties is solely because of
their exclusive use in the south. The
! existing rate OF duty on the raw ma.
terial from which the cotton ties are
made is retained, but the finished pro.
duct is to be placed on the free list,
and this in the face OF the fact that
since the Mckinley act was passed,
eleven new mills tor the production OF
cotton ties have gone into operation
in this country, and the price OF the
ties has declined 10 certs a bundle.
