COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER.
Congressional.

WASHINGTON, April Ex-senator
Mitchell OF Oregon spoke against the
Wilson bill to-day. He declared
that the passage of the bill would be
legislative recognition OF the most
dangerous economical and constitu-
tional heresy. In 1856 the Demo-
Gratis elected Buchanan on that poll
cy and almost bankrupted the treas
ury; the national credit was badly
shaken and in 1860 they were hurled
frou power. The same result will
follow in 1896 il this bill be passed.
A union had been brought about be-
cause OF the varying tariffs OF the
different States. The constitution
allty OF protection was not attacked
till 1892. He condemned the ad =
ralorem system and discussed wool
at length, pronouncing the schedules
arbitrury and unjust, because they
protected the manufactures and not
the producer, and favored foreigners.
Placing wool on the free list was
most visionary fallacy. Clothing now
Ia cheaper than before the passage Of
the Mckinley bill. Barley, hops,
plums aud prunes also received at
tentIon. The agricultural producers,
he said, fell under the blighLing in-
huence Of the Wilson bill, and quoted
speech of Voorhees, delivered in
1881, proving him to have once been
p1otectionist. The bill was based
Oh no definite policy of customs taxa
tion and was sectional, un.American,
un-Democratic and un-Republican.
