that measure is beyond exception

for it is that wool does not get sufficient
protection in the measure. But the bill
was not put forward as measure of
tariff revision. 1t was framed simply for
the purpose of supplying sufficient reve-
nues TO the government, and 1t was con-
structed upon the only lines that gave
any promise of success. Had O revision
of the tariff been undertaken it must
have failed inevitably. The President
certainly would not have signed a bill
Of that kind. and it is very doubtful if a
majority could have been obtained in the
Senate for 1t. 1t was the general opinion
of Republicans the country over, when
Congress met, that revision of the tariff
should be postponed until the Republ-
cans had full possession CT the govern
ment, and at this session of Congress,
only suoh changes should be made as
should supply the necessary revenue
The House promptly proceeded to legis-
| late on these lines and passed a bill
which was in no sense n revision of the
tariff and was not intended to be. 1t
made horizontal increase of tariff
|
deficiency of revenue. It was the only
practicable method of meeting the gov
ernment's necessities. No Republican in
che House looked upon it as finality,
but all regarded it as temporary expe
dent to meet an exlgency that had
arisen and which could be met in no
other way. Had the Senate been AMI
mated by the same spirit of patriotism
that has prevailed in the House the meas
ure would have been promptly passed by
that body also But small minority OF
| Senator'S from the so-called silver states
have entered into u conspiracy to force
free silver upon the country, and in fur
therance of this purpose they have agreed
to hold up every measure which does not
recognize free coinage, or to hang the mill
stone of free silver around it's neck.
Their objection to the revenue bill, that it
does not give sufficient protection to wool,
is mere pretence. Their real objection
is that it does not provide for free silver.
II free coinage amendment could be
attached to it they would vote for it, be-
yond doubt. They acted in just the
same way with the bond bill and for the
same reason. These dog yin the-manger
senators represent @ very insignificant
constituency omparatiyely, but unfor-
tunately they hold the balance of power
in the Senate, and constitute an insupers
bic obstacle in the pathway of every
measure which they may take a notion
to oppose.
The course Of Speaker Reed and the
Republicans of the House with regard
to both the bond bill and the revenue bill,
has been dictated by the highest patriot
ism and strict regard for the best inter
ests Of the country. They havo met the
emergencies presented by dwindling
reserve and an inadequate revenue
promptly and in the best manner that
circum stances admitted of. The great
majority of the Republican Senators
were ready to second the Speaker
purpose, but few silver senators have
been able to defeat all their efforts. Hap
PLY the public is discriminating and is
perfectly competent TO place the blame
where it belongs.

1t is not at al probable that Secretary
Carlisle as matter of choice awarded
the defaulted bonds to Banker Morgan
instead Of the Boston parties who offered
q higher price. That would have been
very unnatural. doubtless he was forced
practically TO do as he did by legal de-
oisioHs in similar cases. At least that is
what ne says Is the fact, and there is no
Eaason to doubt his word.

(Ex-Gov. Long to the Norfolk Club.)
In the East we are all generally agreed
that Mr.. Reed will be nominated.
cloud applause.) Not only do regard
him as probable candidate, not only as
the most available candidate, one who
would carry the largest vote over the
country at large, but wish to speak OF
him as n representative of the Republi-
can party There is SO much representa-
tive of it in lis figure, his face-he at
tracts one SO much by his broad intelli-
gence, his wit and humor, that we are
apt to lose sight Of the thorough conser-
vatiSIn and prudence Of the man. An
article in the Atlantic Monthly says the
| public is not certain that he is right on
| the currency question, but that notion
has been exploded. 1t is also intilnated
that by electing Mr.. Reed, we should
elect partisan. | undertake to say that
| MIR. Reed is man of large breadth, and
that, while he believes in his party, it is
a misuomer to call him partisan. He
never espouses q cause or supports "a
measure in which he does not have abso-
| Lutte faith. He shows admiral prudence
and restraint, and his display of these
qualities in Congress is the best evidence
Of bis fitness for the chief magistraoy of
the nation. Cloud appIauss.)
The three great epochs since 1860 are
the overthrow of slavery, the resuJup-
ton of specie Payments and the reforna-
ton Of parliamentary procedure, in
| which Mr. Reed took the chief part.
t(Appiause.) Mr.. Reed il not only q
man of force, but man Of conservative
character and of rare prudence, who will
never lead US into any such financial
blunder or into any suoh blunder in our
foreign relations as the nation is morti-
fled under today. (Renewed applause.
If MIR. Reed shah give us such an adj
ADMINISTRATION as we anticipate, it will
not be an administration Of Mr.. r eed
it will be an administration of the Re

Of the government OF this country on Re

Madison. Wis, Oct. 30.-Mr. Bryan's
speeches to-day were made at Green
Bay. Depere, Kaukauna, Appleton.
Neenah, Menasha, Oshkosh, Fond Du
Lac. Chester, Juneau, Watertown, JEFF
ferson. Fort Atkinson. Janesville. Ev-
ansville and Madison. None OF them
were of more than 30 minutes dura-
tlon except the addresses which were
made at night at Madison. All except
the Madison speech were made from
the rear platform OF his special car.
The arrangement proved of immense
benefit to Mr.. Bryan physically. saving
him the wear and tear OF making his
way back and forth through immense
crowds Of people eager to press close
to him and also in saving time. From
almost the beginning OF the days tour.
the train ran ahead Of time. bringing
Mr.. Bryan into Madison in time to be-
gin his speech In advance Of the hour
scheduled for his appearance.
There was no semblance OF disturb
ance at any place until Janesville was
reached. There 1t was apparent from
the display Of yellow badges In many
places that his audiences were not en-
tlrely In sympathy with him. Sun
there was respectful attention on the
part Of those who wore the colors of
the opposition, an the silver men were
at all places demonstrative.

The democrats are so much afraid OF
the money that Mr.. Hanna has at his dis
posal that they are more than willing he
should continue In the conviction that he
will carry New York. and so I will not
say how very confident OF an opposite re-
suit they have now become.
But my car companion this morning
was a young jewelry traveller OF Brook
lyn who confided to me his satisfaction
at having invested 500 In election bets.
About the least preposterous OF these
bets We're that Mckinley would carry
KinEs county by i0.oOo majority and the
state by 100000. His reason for making
such bets was that everywhere he trav-
eled he found the business people sure oil

Of different opinions than those whom a

meet, may say that a gentleman that

had peculiar opportunities for knowing
the drift OF opinion among the farmers N
all parts of the state. gives II to me as
the most conservative estimate that he
can form. that Bryan will have such a
sweeping vote In the interior OF New
York that he will 20 down to the Harlem
river with a majority of not less than
5000.
The reticence OF the democratic politi-
clans ns to their hopes comes from their
scarcity OF money. their belief that the
republicans have unlimited quantities OF
