DEFENDING GORMAN'S RECORD
1t is not often that in congressional
eulOgies controversial matters are rak
ed, up but the members of the snate
who spoke in memorial OF the late
Senator German did not hesitate to
defend him from the charge implied
in the famous letter of Mr. Cleveland
that he wrecked the Wilson tariff bill
in a manner that made him guilty of
'perfidy and disnOnor.'
Senator Blackburn, who was lieu.
tenant of German, and close friend
of Senator Carlisle of the treasury
declared in his remarks that there
never was a change made in the Will
son bill in the senate which did have
the sanction and approval of those
higher in authority than Mr.. German
and himself The inference is that
Mr.. Cleveland or Mr.. Carlisle or both
approved the insertion of the sugar
duty. Mr.. Cleveland's campaign man
ayers in 1892 had promised it to the
Louisiana planters (this is Mr. Cor
mans testimony of II years ago., and
if it is true then the perfidy and dis
honor would appear to lie at the door
of those who strove to break that
