The Tariff Bourbons.
From the Philadelphia Ledger.

From the Philadelphia Ledger.

revolt against the persistent bourbonism OF
eastern protectionists, and Senator Dolliver
gave an unpleasant shock to some OF his
republican associates in uttering some
truths about the Dingley tariff and
about what he called the "stolid'' at
titude Of the Senate toward reciprocity.
Mr.. Delivers argument was that the reci-
procity treaties are essential to the exist
ence Of the tariff. The schedules, he de-
clared. were designedly put up for the ex-
press purpose Of having them traded down.

ator Aldrlch. and he spoke OF the reproach
to Congress that not a line of the wisdom
of James G. Blaine remained on the statute
