understand why they have been treat
ed here 30 we'll, personally. when such
hostility is shown by this government to
the countries they represent, as that
expressed in the new tariff bill. Other
people beside the delegates experience
the same difficulty. that is if they credit
those who conduct the public affairs of
this country with the possession of
common sense.

THE TARIFF BILL.

The conference report on the tarlu
bill passed the House few minutes
after last midnight. The vote on which
the report was agreed to was: Yeas
1879, nays lis, party vote, with 10"
exceptions. Five democrats voted aye:
Never, of Louisiana, Slayden,, OF
Texas, Kleberg of Texas, Broussard OF
Louisiana and Davey of Louisiana; All
of the populists who voted voted no
OF the silver republicans Neulands ana
Shafreth answered present. The re-
port was sent on it's way from the
House back to the Senate after very
stubborn contest on the part OF the
democrats, who, fighting in a foriorn
hope. vet put themselves on record lot
future elections. There were TWO pat
ties, one from to 6 p. NJ. and anotner
from s o. 10. until Just after midnight,
when the last vote was counted ana
the report declared adopted.
In the afternoon meeting stirring and
encouraging speeches we're made by
Messrs. Handy of Delaware, Ball OF
Texas. and Lanham of Texas. MIR.
Handy was particularly keen in his
satire against The gold democrats, and
the reward which, as Hesslans, tney
have received from their republican al
lies. ..,..,,.
The night session was q particularly
brilliant one, in point OF the numbers
character, and enthusiasm OF the peo'
| pie who thronged the galleries.
The features of the evening debate
L,n ,,oocaoa hetWeen MIR.
Bailey, of Texas, and Mr.. McMillln, OF
Tennessee, in which MIR. Bailey confess
ed his change of principle as to free
raw material and justified his present
position on the ground OF having re-
ceiyed a new commission from MS
party. Another feature of the evening
debate was the speech of Gen. Payne,
of New York, in which he rldlculed
The democratic party and its leaders ior
their alleged inconsistencies and dlssen-
sions.
The democrats made no effort to pre-
vent the vote, although earlier IN Inc
LAY they had protested against Cnalr-
man Dingley's proposition to limit the
debate to one day.
The action of the republicans In lore
ing the adoption of the conference re,
port by the House before permitting ap
4 adjournment was resented by the
'>emocrats in both the House and the
Serate, and it was announced by Sena-
tors shat the haste made In the House
would be followed by corresponding
delay in the Senate.
Senator Aldrich said yesterday even
inc that The democrats were endeavor'
inc to form a combination with the
nopulists an d those western republicans

impossible to have the bill sent back tc
conference, some of them will advocate
its adoption at the earliest practicable
moment. Unless something can be Sc
cured for the people of the South ano
West by restoring cotton ties and bag
ping to the free list, it is argued thai
| nothing is to be gained by talking.

ANOTHER of the most famous Cuban
insurgent chiefs. Major General Ban
dera, has been made to bite the dust.
He was an ex.slave, and a coal black
negro. The strangest thing about the
Cuban insurgents is the persistent de-
NAL by the filibusters in this country of
the we'll known fact that they are com.
posed chiefly of freed negroes, the
white men among them being scala
wags, with nothing to lose but their
worthless lives in their vain attempt to
subvert the de jure and de faoto govern
ment of Cuba.

AS THE new tariff bill is we'll calcu-
lated to prohibit all trade between Can-
sda and the United States, the govern.
ment of the former has sent q special
commissioner to Mexico for the purpose
o. promoting an increase of commercial
relations with that country. ALI wise
governments know they must have q
market for the surplus products of their
own countries, and If they cannot find
it just across their borders, they must
look for it farther off, 1t is only the
government of the United States that
fails to recognize this traditional and
historical truth.
