and in semi-ofhcial dispatches from
Washington, that it is necessary to issue
gold bonds in order to restore conf
dence. supposed that confidence
had returned many days ago.
We are all aware that the
advocates of repeal promised that it
should return and that they promised
higher prices for wheat and general
revival of business all over the country.
Senators who were opposed to repeal
were aware, during every moment OF
the contest last summer, that gold bonds
were the natural sequence to repeal;
but am surprised that they are neces-
sarv to return OF confidence. Secretary
Carlisle's open declaration for q gold
standard reminds me very much of the
bimetalliSt speeches made in the senate.
There is one feature of the controversy
that may be said to be finally settled,
ana that is, there is no longer any doubt
where the administration stands. 1t is
for gold standard absolutely and I'M
equivocally."
Mr.. Hansbrough spoke upon the tariff
issue as follows:
IF the Democrats put all of our raw
material on the free list, do not see
why they should not put the manu-
featured articles Oh the same list. II
we are to have protection, let us have
it for all and not Tor few.
LAS L understand it, the Democrats
propose TO abolish the bounty on sugar
and give it protective tariff. This will
result in placing sugar back at the old
high prices per pound. The sugar belt
In the United States is so small that the
producers cannot furnish more than
about one-ffth the amount of sugar re-
quired for consumption in the United
States. This state of affairs will make
it necessary for the consumers to pay
the duty. The Republican doctrue
Is that when an orticle can be produced
in this country in sufficient quantity to
supply the whole nation, tariff pro-
notes competition, and a consequent
lowering of prices below the tariff pro-
lection; but when it cannot be SO done,
tariff protection cannot promote compe-
tition, and the people must pay adj
vanced rates for the article.
81 am doubtful that the Democratic
tariff bill can pass. 1t may pass the
house, i'll which the Democratic major
ity is very large, but the Democratic
majority in the senate is very small.
and it will be difficult to enforce
caucus rule on the Democratic side.
In the house there will be no fiIibus-
tering OH the Republican side, for the
reason that the Republicans believe
hat 10 nnnnnorotio nf ri fnr
revenue only will result in the over
throw of the Democratic party in future
campaigns.
