TARIFF DEBATE.
Washington. March 22.-The first day
OF the tariff debate in the house
was rather tame. from both a spec
tacular and an oratorical standpoint.
The galleries were well filled all day
and the members on the floor list
ened conscientiously, but there was
an absence both Of the sharp cross
firing which keeps the nerves on edge
and that brilliant eloquence which in
spires and holds the imagination. The
opening Of the debate was delayed
over two hours by the full reading Of
the bill of 1s2 pages. and this. =" be-
gin with. had somewhat depressing
influence. The republican leaders In
sisted on this to avoid a possible re-
appearance in the future. should the
consideration OF the bill not be com
pleted under the five-minute rule. Of
claim that the bill had not been
read in full to tn house. thing which
happened in the case OF both the Nc
Kinley and the Wilson bills.
Only four speeches were made at
today's session. Dingley. chairman Of
the ways and means committee. open
ed in an hours speech for the majority
and Wheeler fred a broadside for the
opposition. The plans Of the demo-
Gratis had miscarried. Bailey. leader
of the opposition. had decided to close
the debate, and Mcmillan had been
selectd to rply to Dingley, but at
the last moment It was learned that
Mcmillan had been unable to prepare

WIFE The task. therefore, devolved
upon Wheeler The latter was unpre-
pared. but nevertheless took the floor

Thinks the Argument Unanswerable.


The report of Postmaster General
Gary, embodying as it does, the re-
ports and recommendations of the AS.
sistant Postmaster General, is an ex-
~ceptionally important document. A
large part of the volume 10 devoted to
an argument, to our mind unanswer
able, in favor of the prompt institution
by this country of a postal savings
bank system. The array Of facts and
figures marshaled to show the timeli.
ness end importance of this step ought
to make a deep impression upon the
congressional mind. The enormous
growth of the postal money order
business is adduced as showing how
the people already patronize the postal
service for the transmission of funds.
That they would avail themselves of it
to deposit their savings is beyond ques
ton. Within a few years the deposits
would be counted by hundreds OF mil
lions. The time is certainly suspicious
for the adoption of this policy Of postal
savings banks. Further than that,
however, it ought to be possible to
combine that policy with some plan
for the Improvement Of the currency
system. Review of Reviews.
