Richmond dispatch. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1884-1903, 1897-10-30

preme Court, q Democratic court, the
Senator said, was composed OF hve as
brave and fearless men as ever wore the
ermne, and he felt that he could say the
same thing Of all the judges OF our lower
courts.
Eloauent reference was made to the
men who wore the gray and fought for
the cause they loved and he set forth
the fact that II was Democratic Leg!s-
lature which made provision for them
and their widows.
OUR NATIONAL AFFAIRS.
He then turned his attention to ma
tional affairs, and referred to the rosy
promises Of the Mckinley agents last
fall, that II their ticket should be elect
ed confidence would be restored and
prosperity would return.
"srhe mills OF the gods grind slowly.
but they grind exceeding fine" the
Senator said "and am going TO do like
wise The Republicans say that the
German Wilson bill caused a great de-
felt in our treasury. l don't object TO
that statement. except for one thing, and
that is, Ii isn't true. The Mckinley bill
is the cause of that deficit, which was
charged to Democracy. and the Dingley
bill is running this government deeper
into debt at rate OF 100000 per day.
We owe 100000 more to-day than we did
yesterday, and we will owe that much
more tomorrow.
He told of how Democracy had, during
Cleveland's term. accumulated a surplus,
and said that during Harrison's adminis-
tration the Republicans had licked the
platter clear, and left us a hole in the
ground like that of an extinct volcano.
They left a deficit of s72.00O000. The
Democrats tried their best by the
passage of the Gorman-Wilson bill, to
wipe out this deficit, and were IN a fair
way to do so. when the Supreme Court
declared the income-tax unconstitutional
and lost the country s2S,000,O00 leaving
a deficit Of s25.OO00o0.
II believe that an income-tax is all
right, and stand on the plank in the
Chicago platform which declares against
the interference of Federal courts" said
the speaker. 1.-THE people in this coun-
try are sovereign and create the judi
ciary. and 1t Is a ew theory to teach
the Anglo-Saxon that the master cannot
criticise his servant"
The Republican policy, Senator Daniel
said was that, "of him who has little
all is expected, and Of him who has
much nothing is expected, save cam
paign check"
RESPECTS TO GOLD-BUGS
Major Daniel paid his respects to the
eold-bugs, and referred most humorous

ourselves into their hands, and see

election" that the Republicans gave US
| then at a ratio of to 7, the being on
| their side invariably.
The speaker referred to Chairman
Lamb's arraignment of the Republican
managers for their disbursement % OF
the $4,000 sent here In Hanna's BARI,
and said ANYBODY who believed that that
| bar'l was sent here or used for the pur-
pose of securing an honest election In
| Virginia was an excellent candidate for

amusngly compared TO a hlonulhe
icicle. and the frost that had been gwen
