that the executive. by timely action. or
the ambassador, by suitable explanation.
or the Democrats of the house. by suitable
concession and non-partisanship- had re-
Iieved the members of demanding the CEN
sure of such man. There were only two
questions at issue. the power of the house
to censure an ambassador. and does the
offense In this case justify such action
These he answered in the affirmative. and
quoted authorities in support thereof.
In the course of some remarks upon pro-
lection. which Mr. Bayard assailed. the
speaker said: THE cause OF protection
has triumphed In the last two elections,
and IL Will triumph in the one for which
We are now preparing. this doctrine is
firmly lodged In the mind of the American
people. and they have a settled conviction
that there viii he no return OF genuine
prosperity until there is return OF a gem
uine American protective tariff. and the
man who will carry the banner of victory
in the coming contest will be that man
who measures up most nearly 10 the ideal
standard. TO the living impersonation of
protection"
In closing Mr. Pearson appealed to all
members TO pass the resolution. saying:
Then, II our representatives in foreign
lands cannot boast of our institutions.
they viii at least pay them the proper
tribute OF their silent contempt. Let 1t
never be expunged until the day of doom
or until the day of gloom and shame when
the representatives of the American peo-
pie no longer dare defend the fair name of
their country against all enemies foreign
and domestic; against the assaults of the
open foe and against the insoience of the
public servant who would exau his party
by dehasing his country"
While Pearson was referring TO protec-
tion and its victories McCreary interposed
TO ask why he did not recall the elections
of 1ss2. when Cleveland was reelected
and the Mckinley bill condemned Be
cause the elections of 1892 are back num-
bers." replied Pearson The Democrats
elected in 1892 were Overwhelmingly repu-
dated In 1894. and the protection victory
in 1894 will be repeated this year"
Tucker. Dem, Va. a member of the for
eign arairs committee. was the first speak
er in opposition TO the adoption of the
resolution He argued that the Republic
ans were deludng themselves with the idea
that Mr.. Bayard's Characterization Of the
American people was offensive: Person
ally he was proud OF the description of them
as strong. self-confident and oftentimes
violent People-men who seek to have
their own way" That was a glorious de-
scription of the h.sfory Of the
Anglo-SaNons as people. He ar
gued that the American people were
sometimes violent" He cited the strikes
at Chicago and other places. the mob vio-
lenee at New Orleans. the calling out of the
militia in Kentucky "a few days ago.

protected Industries had been levied on hy

Of that interview he asked. did not the
words OF Mr.. Bayari that protection cor
