that Senator Squire was n captain,

fougAt for the cause In which they be.
tleved- know nearly all of them.
and they are loyal American citizens
to-day.
The people OF the north have not ie-
nored their citizen soldiery. They have
sent many of the boys in blue to con-
gress; and all of the deserving are elig-
IDLE to positions on the pension rolls.
There is considerable political contro-
versy about that matter of the pension
roll just now; but will not enter into
that, nor vent any of my views. We
are considering only the soldiers In
congress.
By examining the congressional di-
rectory, have found that there are
three major generals in congress, who
served in the armies of the union; six
brigadier generals; three colonels;
four lieutenant colonels; one major;
ten captains; nine lieutenants; one adj
jutant; two staff officers, and twenty
nine private soldiers.
The major generals are Senator
Hawley, of Connecticut; Senator
Palmer, of Illinois; and Representa-
tive Sickles, of New York. The latter
lost leg at Gettysburg, and walks on
crutches.
The brigadier generals are Senator
Henderson, of Nebraska; Representa-
tives Black, Henderson and Post, of IL
1inois; Cogswel1, of Massachusetts,;
Curtis, of New York; Grosvenor, of
Ohio, and Bingham, of Pennsylvania.
The colonies are Senators Shoup, of
Idaho; Quay, of Pennsylvania, and
Proctor, of Vermont; and Representa-
tives Marsh, of Illinois; Fyan, of Mis-
souri,, and Henderson, OF Iowa. The
latter lost a leg at Iulka, and walks on
crutches.
The lieutenant colonies are Senator
Villas, of Wisconsin,; Representatives
Hepburn, of Iowa; Draper. of Massa-
chusetts; Blair, of New Hampshire;
Graham, of New York; Strong, of
Ohio, and Grout, of Vermont. Mr.. Blair
has served with distinction in the SEN
ate.
The only major of the federal armies
now in congress is Representative
Picker. of South Dakota.
The captains are Representatives
Hull, of Iowa; Griffin, of Michigan;
Keifer and Baldwin, of Minnesota;
Morgan, of Missouri; Hulick and Will
son, of Ohio; Wolverton, of Pennsyl-
vania; Lapham, of Rhode Island. and
Lucas, of South Dakota.
The lieutenants are Senators PETER,
of Kansas, and Davis, of Minnesota;
Representatives Lacey, of Iowa; Fun
ston, of Kansas; BOutelle, of Maine;
Burrows, of Michigan; Fielder, of New
Jersey; Adams, of Kentucky; Thomas,
of Michigan, and Stone, of Pennsyl-
vania. Mr.. Boutelle was in the navy,
and has splendid fighting record.
The private soldiers are Senators
Wolcott, of Colorado; Alien, of Neb-
raska; Brice, of Ohio. and Dolph, of
Oregon; Representatives Loud, of Cal
ifornia; Bowers, of CALIFORNIA;; ChiIds
and Funk, of Illinois; Conn, b1anin

Immediately after the civil war, and
they do not hold and cultivate the ami
mosities which were engendered by
that war in the minds and hearts of
some of the people who participated
in it, north and south, and the women
and daughters of that period who re-
manned at home and suffered.
The confederate brigadiers in con-
gress to-day are very few in number.
There is only one confederate briga-
der in the house of representatives.
and it happens that he was a great
deal more than a brigadier general in
the confederate army. Hon. Joseph
Wheeler, of Alabama, is the only man
in the house of representatives to-day
who attained the title of general" in
the confederate army. He was not
only brigadier general, but he was
a major general and also lieutenant
general.
AS matter of fact, before he was
twenty-five years of age, Joseph
Wheeler was lieutenant general of
cavalry ard one of the most aggressive
and able leaders in the cavalry arm
of the service who has ever been
known in the history of the warfares
of any age. He is only five feet three
inches in height, a very slender man,
and weighs less than one hundred
pounds. He is graduate of the West
Point military academy, and was al
most born and bred to the military
service. He was one of the ablest gen.
erals who have ever lived; that is, SO
far as the cavalry branch of the mill
tary service is concerned. He was a
very bold, brave raider, and created a
great deal of trouble for the federal
armies.
All the so-called ''rebel brigadiers''
who are now in congress are to be
found in the senate. They are nine in
number. Senator Bate, of Tennessee;
Senator Hunton, of Virginia.; Senator
Butler, of South Carolina; Senator
Gordon, of Georgia, and Senator Ran
som. of North Carolina, were major
generals. Senator Morgan, of Ala
bama; Senator George, of Mississippi,
and Senator Cockrell, of Missouri, are
the real ''rebel brigadiers." They are
only three in number. This consti-
tutes the complete list of confederate
generals who are now in congress.
The list of colonies is almost as
formidable and consists of Senators
Mills, of Texas; Vance, of North Caro-
lima, and Irby, of South Carolina. The
others are in the house of represen-
tives in the persons of Representatives
Patterson, of Tennessee; Oates, of Ala
bama; McCreary, of kentucky; Stock
dale and Hooker, of Mississippi. Cox,
of Tennessee, and Culberson, of Texas
There are eleven confederate cap
tains in the Fifty-third congress, and
they are Neill, of Arkansas; Breckin-
ridge, of Kentucky; Money, of Missis-
sippi; Hatch, of Missouri; Bum and
Alexander, of North Carolina; Shell. of
South Carolina; Wise, of Virginia; Kill
gore, of Texas; Senator Daniel, of
Virginia, and Senator Coke, of Texas.
The lieutenants in the confederate
army who are now in congress are
Senators Berry, of Arkansas; Caffery,
of Louisiana, and Faulkner, of West

Virginia.; and Representatives Clark
and Cobb, of Alabama; Russell and
Speaker Crisp, of Georgia.; Meyer, of
Louisiana, and Abbott, of Texas
The private soldiers in the confed-
crate army who are now in congress
number thirty-hve. and they would
make quite a respectable squad if they
were all mustered into service TODAY,
They consist of Senators Jones, of
Arkansas; Pasco, of Florida, and Joe
Blackburn, of Kentucky; and Repre-
sentatives Bankhead and benson, of
Alabama; Clifton Breckenridge. of
Arkansas; Mallory, of Florida; Les
ter, Livingston, Cabanniss, Mad

The Corrupt Practices of High Tariff
Advocates.

The Corrupt Practices OF High Tariff
Advocates
1t is not at all strange that direct
bribery has been attempted as one of
the means to influence the votes OF
senators on the tariff bill
Of course the attempts at bribery are
directed against democratic senator's
The votes of republican senators have
been secure from the beginning against
any change that would reduce the
enormous rates of monopoly tariff tax
alton Corrupt influences would be
used, naturally, only to affect the &C
ton of democratic congressman
1t was to be expected that, sooner or
later, at some stage of the issue. the
tariff corruptionists would offer direct
ly to purchase votes
The entire Mckinley tariff system is
bribery. Not a member of congress
can vote to impose a high tariff tax
for purposes of protection except from
some motive of soriid selfishness and
greed-corrupt political greed or greed
for gain.
Protection brides the popular vote.
The farmer is bribed by the false
promises of a nearer market and bet
ter prices for his products. Labor is
bribed by false promises of higher
wages. Commercial classes are bribcd
by false promises of flush times and
big profits in trade.
The panic and wreck in financial at
fairs, in labor affairs and in agricul-
tural affairs, show how false was the
corrupt promise which the protection
lists made to the people The bride
/ that they offered was Elusive. But the
corruption was real.
The offer was like that of the being
who promised ''all the kingdoms of the
world for the service and worship of
the person to whom the temptation
was addressed. The being who made
the offer could not fulfill one of its
conditions 1t was a false offer. But
it was equally corrupt and criminal as
if he could have paid the price which
he had promised.
Experience shows that the prosper
ity promised by the protectionist is a
disastrous illusion. The offered bride
was not reality. But the corruption
the crime of the transaction, though
the consideration failed, is the same
Failure to pay a bride does not allie
viate the guilt involved in pledge o.
payment.
The entire process is a system Of
brides by which votes are manufac
tured against such tariff as the dem
ocratic party pledged its faith that il
would give to the people. Nothing il
more corrupt in the history of legisla
ton than the acts OF whicS the sena
torial gamblers in trust certificates
were guilty when they framed the
sugar schedule after raking off theii
profits in buying and selling sugar Sc

TARIFF LIES BY REPUBLICANS.
The Real Cause of the Existing Industrial
Stagnation.


The Real Cause of the Existing Industrial
Stagnation.
The long tariff declaration by the
Pennsylvania republicans is string of
unmitigated falshoods. 1t begins with
the assertion that the threats and eff
forts" of the democratic party Ito de-
stroy the system of protection to
American industries have wrecked our
manufacturing ablishments, de-
stroyed the value of our farm products,
ruined our employers, beggared our
workingmen, and brought distrust
upon the honesty of their proposed
legislation"
The democratic platform of 1892 was
a threat" to destroy protectionism
and give the country tariff for rev.
enue only. On that platform the demo-
cratic party administered a tremend-
Gus whipping to the party of protec-
tionism. Everybody, including all the
protectees, expected the democratic
party to make a long stride toward
free trade and the utter demolition of
protectionism. And yet the manufac-
turing beneficiaries of the tariff went
on building factories and turning out
products with hardly a pause for eight
months after election. They did not
diminish their output, and, strange TO
say, they did not reduce wages, as they
did in many instances soon after the
enactment OF the Mckinley tariff.
This one fact demonstrates that o
radical reduction of the tariff had no
terrors for them. 1t was not until the
business public became profoundly
alarmed at the impending conse-
quences of republican silver legis1a ton
that the trouble began.
1t was that accomplished legisla ton,
ana not the fear of tariff reduction,
that started the panic and produced
the results described with SO much ex.
aggeration by the Pennsylvania repub-
licans- This was freely admitted for
months after the panic began by lead
ing republican organs and conspicuous
benefciaries of McKinleyism. 1t WIS
n year after the election of 1892 befors
republican leaders and organs began
to charge the consequences of the re-
publican silver panic to fear of demo-
cratic ts<if legislation.
As for the specifications in the Penn.
sylvanis declaration-that the demo
cratic assault upon the American pro-
tective system" has reduced to idle
ness two million workmen," and so Con-
they are sheer partisan lying of the
most reckless description They are q
wild and desperate attempt to shift re-
sponsibility for the painful ccGse-
quences of the republican silver panic
from the republican to the democratic
party. They are futile attempt "a
make the people believe that the
natural and necessary effects of actual
republican legislation are the effects
