WASHING ron, Jan. 13-Immediately
after the reading of the presidents
Hawaiian message today in the house the
tariff debate was resumed.
Mr.. Picker of South Dakota made a
vigorous speech on the discrimination the
bill made against farmers. He was fol-
lowed by Mr.. Grosvenor Of Ohio, who
could not understand how any sane man
could be in favor OF bill to decrease the
revenues SIS 900. 0o0. as the Wilson bill
intended. He closed by strong eulogy
of the Mckinley law, and declared iu the
wisest law the wit of man had ever devised
for the collection OF revenues.
Mr. Bryan OF Nebraska was the next
speaker. He said that the principle Of
protection could not be defined. The
government had no right to take money
by taxation and give it TO another. nor has
it any right by an indirect tax to hold a
man while some one rifles his pockets.
''We are confident" he continued, that
the Wilson bill will remove part Of the
load from the shoulders of he people; eX
tend our markets, and justify still further
reductions in the near future"
Mr.. Turner of Georgia spoke for tue
bill.
Bourke Cochran, the great Tammaay
orator. W no followed, took the floor, aud
was accorded an impartial ear. The OBJ
lection that the bill would not afford suf
ficient revenue, he said, was one born of
absolute ignorance of the laws of revenue
reductions.
The other speakers in the afternoon
were Messrs. Taylor of Tennessee, Draper
of Massachusetts, and Doolittle OF Wash
ington, who spoke against, and Mr.
Weadock of Michigan, who spoke for the
bill.
A recess was taken till s o'clock, when
Mr.. Wright of Pennsylvania spoke in op-
position to the bill.

commenting on this matter. goes so
far as to sug gest that since the fact OF
such contamination is admitted, advan-
tage should be taken of the peculiar
i.y to place the -four where it will take
upon itself an agreeable flavor, which
would be an improvement to the bread
1t would seem difficult to suggest any
flavor better than the simple nutty
flavor of the wheat which is found in
the best makes of -four.
The necessity for keeping the -four

such as are used on a piano. SO that it
may be frequently shifted and the
space underneath cleaned out Or 10
may consist merely oftwo large beams,
raising the barrel above the ground,
leaving space for ventilation beneath
it Where some such contrivance is
not arranged and the -four barrel rests
fat on the floor. it is likely to become
mus.y and the last baking is pretty
sure to be of quite an inferior quality.

suit he has never deviated. So that it was
the opinion OF this experienced publisher
that if the stories appealed to the people
they would be welcomed without any ref
erence to the section which they portrayed
or in which their writers live.
Mr.. Stevens complains that the mighty
rush Of immigration, beginning somewhere
about 1880. has choked American litera-
ture, and that America has produced no
giants of literature born since that year.
Yet American literature has been enriched
by immigrants and the children OF inmi-
grants. Mrs. Burnett was born in Eng
land. James Parton was of foreign birth.
Miles O. O'Reilly-better known by that nom
de plume than by his real name, Charles 6.
Halpine-of Irish birth, was pre-eminently
the poet of the war. O'Hara, whose lines
beginning lon Fame's eternal camping
ground" are immortal, was of foreign birth.
Agassiz was of foreign birth. Brady, Cock
ran, McDougall, Baker and many other
orators whose names are traditional were
not native Americans. So that IL was said
that, whatever may have been the effect of
immigration, American literature has been
greatly enriched by the works of those not
born in this country.
II was the opinion of the publishers and
some of the writers who were there that
one of the chief reasons why pre-eminent
literary genius is not recognized now is
that men who might have the capacity for
such pursuit have been distracted by the
more exciting and profitable opportunities
which the development of the wealth of
the United States has been offering, and it
was Chauncey NJ. Depew who said that
there were dozen men prominent in great
affairs of business or finance who would
have been able, had they turned their atten
ton TO literature, to match the ablest that
Great Britain has produced.
