WASHINGTON, D. c.. May 24.-Mr
Aldrich opened the tariff discussion in
the senate, this sfterpoon. HIS speech
was carefully prepared one. He said
the republicans would not enter into any
academic discussion of the principles of
protection. 1t was an important bill
and should pass at an early day, and
little time as possibly be wasted. He
then elaborately defended the measure.
He said that future bond issues must
be averted, that the contingency was
fatal to any party, and that beer and
tobacco must bear their burdens. He
devoted much time to sugar, saying
that compound rates were necessary.
