By Mr. Telier—To promote the interests ot agri- culture by irrigation, and to encourage the settle- ment of the arid lands of New Mexico, obit, Chandler—in relation to promotions tn WY. Mr. Riddleberger, from the committee on naval affairs, reported a’ bill for the relief of the Albe- marle and Chesapeake Canal Co. ADVOCATING REPEAL OF THE INTERNAL-~REVENUE LAWS. ‘Mr. Brown (Ga.) called up the resolution offered by him on the 4th of January, declaring 1t the linperative duty of Congress to repeal the Anternal-revenue laws at the earliest . day practicabie, and proceeded to address the Senate in advocacy of it—occupying his Seat while he read his speech from manuscript. He was not (he said) a protectionist per se, Dut he would ratse the money needed for te econom- {eal support of the Government by tariiT so ad- justed as to give American. capital and labor all possible incidental protection, and so tat the eaviest burdens should be put on articles of 1ux- uury and the lightest on articles of necessity. He Was opposed to the practice of direct taxation by the General Government, and to running two sys- tems of collection of revenue, especiaily when one of them was marked by oppressions and domiciliary vexations, Speaking for the peo- ple of “Georgia, he said that while they desired a just'revision of the tariff and the abolition of the revenue system, they did not wish to crush American manufacturers or to reducé the compensation of American labor. He quoted from the democratic national platform of 1884, and said that he and his state stood on that ‘squarely. Under tt tariff reduction must be carriea out so a8 Rot to injure home industry. By the census of 1880 the whole value of dutiable manufactured articles imported in 1880 was §190,088,633, while the value of manufactured products in the United States that year was $5,309,579,191, or twenty- Seven times as much as the dutlable linports. The farmer paid tari duties, therefore, on only one- twenty-seventh part of the manufactured goods he “used, while he got about as tmuch tariff protection on What ‘he raised as he paid on the goods he bought. If those now employed in manufactures were thrown back upon farining the Jact would disarrange the whole system, increas. ing farm products Unremuneratively and adding {othe cost of imanufactures, The capital au labor employed in the manufactures of Wool, silk, iron and steel, cotton, chemicals, Jute" and” hemp, china, giass, ledther, papet und tobacco (which articles produced uver $05,000,000 of revenue), would be ruined by taking protection away from ‘these Industries; while to abolish the internal revenue was’ only to affect 909 registered distillers with thelr few employes. The democratic platform. settled the line of duty iu such a glaring anuthesis of interest as that. The clash of insolvency entailed by crushing these mauufacturers would create wide ruin and suffering. How then xhould the. reduction come? The fssue was one between three aad’ four millions of labor- ing people and nine hundred and sixty- misky barons.” The effect of a tariff in stimulating inanufactures was shown, he sard, 1n the case of Bessemer steel. Fourteen’ years. ago the price of steel rails was $138 a ton; a tari ot $28 a ton had caused large American productior und had reduced the price to $35 a ton.” ‘The tariff Was now $17 a ton, ahd rails had been offered at #31 aton. ‘The Euglish manufacturer had to get $30 4 ton to save himsel: in this market, or else Jose $8a ton at present prices Before the war rice had sold for $2 per one hundred pounds. During the war southern rice being cut off, Tice hud gone up to $14 per one hundred pounds, He combatted the idea that tariff hurt the tarm- era, During low tariff, trom 1856 to 1860, refined Sugar, he said, was worth 16 cents a pound, It 1s now, under high tariff, worth from 5 to 6%. Cal- 1co liad been 1? cents ai yard and was now 6 cents, Prices of necessaries had fallen, and those of labor had gone up. ‘The farmer hada tariff on live st bread stuffs, Max, &c., fruits, hay, Lops, grain, pro- vistons, dairy products, rice, sugar, tobacco, vege- tables, Wool, and others. Of thesé articles’ there had been last year one hundred and nifty millions Worth imported. “If the tariff on these goods, a8 Was clalined, raised the prices of home-ralsed Products ofthe same kind by the amount of the uty, as Was claimed in the case of manufactured articles, then the farmers got a tremendous veuetitin protection. ‘The corn imported. last Year was, dds bushels, and the duty 10c. a ushel. The total corn production in this country Was 1,936,130,000 bushels. Ten cents a bushel tariff “profit on corn alone would make $193,- 617,800 protection profit to the farmers—a greater bonanza than the Whisky ring enjoyed, Under this fallacious rule, as applied by the free-traders to manufacturers, the farmers On the above pro- duetions Would get a net increase of price of $1,200,000, which was an_ absurdity. home colnpetition fixed the price, and small importa Uons did not Increase tt. He’ argued that manu- facturing estabitshments furnished consumers to farmers, and afforded a market for their products, While ‘the ‘farmer paid litle tariff duties, for he bought few luxuries, be Was largely benefited by a tariff that bu:lt up manu- fuctures and afforded him customers. What the ‘Southern farmer suffered from was not the tariff, Dut the practice of an all-cotton crop, and thé purchase of supplies trom the West, with inability to borrow money from the banks ‘on real estate security. He concluded by discussing, with con- jontted by the siderable elaboration, the lesson aff growth in the North, with fewer natural tages than the South’ under a wide and successfull system of manufactures fostered by a plan of tariff protection; and he urged the Sout to Weigh well thé probiem, and to consider carefully before checking the present advance of Southern mabufactures by injudicious interference with the tariff system. ‘Tne south raised the cotton and had the coal and iron. To Manufacture them at home was the Dest way to utilize her natural resources, Let the South, he sald, adopt the policy that had enriched the North. Let ihe iniquitous internal-revenue system be re- valed aud the tariff revised so as to impose Rigner ‘rates oa ‘luxuries and ‘lower rates on necessities, as demanded by the democratic platform of 1864, upon which the only demo- cratic President liad been elected in twenty-five ears, THE UNDERVALUATION BILL.

Mr. Scott emphatically expressed his opinion to the effect that the tariff pfotected and stimulated trusis, and called special attention to the alleged steel-beam trust as a case in point, He said that he had collected miany facts that would enlighten the pubile on this subject. Mr. Reed ‘retorted by advising Mr. Scott as a friend not to go into the subject.

It is Said that there are Two Aspi- rants from the Pine Tree State, Senator Hale is now accused of presidential as- pirations, It is said that he 1s laying plans to capture the Biaine following in the East, and that his resolution to investigate alleged disregard of the civii-service law by the present ad- 13 a carefully-played trump card in this Presidential game. Of course Mr. Hale, as the author of the resolution, will be made chairman of the investigating committee, and if the move shall prove a success he will reap the benefit. He has for years been a trusted friend and counselor of Blaine, while for a long time the relations between the latter and Senator Frye have been somewhat strained. Hence it ts natur- ally inferred that Mr. Blaine would sustain the residential aspirations of Hale rather than of nye. It 4s said further in regard to the coming Investigation that pumerous Government officials who have been discharged by the present admin- istration will be summoned fo testify and that she democrats will undertake Lo show that there were ood reasons other than politics for the discharge Of these men. ‘The Qual er Senator. PECULIAR CHARACTERISTICS OF MR. CHACE OF RHODE ISLAND. Since the retirement of Senator Conger Mr. ‘Chace, of Ruode Island, is the only member of the ‘upper brauch of the national legislature who clings to the swallow-tail coat as an article of every-day apparel.

Senator Vest has informied some of his friends that itis his purpose to retire from the Senate at ‘the end of his present term. This decision has occasioned no little surprise. The Senator's most intimate friends can scarcely believe that he will actually adhere to his determination. For a seat in the United States Senate can, perhaps, be re- tained by Mr. Vest during the balance of his natu- ral life should he desire to hold it, His tenure will continue as long as nis party retains power in Missourl and he desires the post, and even the most singutne republican scarcely hopes to live to see the day when his party will carry Missourl. Senator Vest was elected to the Senate in 1878, by the practically unanimous decision of his party im Missouri. He took his seat in 187, and six years later was re-elected unanimously by the democrats of his state. ‘There is no question that he could be returned with the same unanimity 10 1890, but his health has been very much tm- ‘ired, and he feels the need of rest. Senator ‘est has a pecullar hold upon tne people ‘he serves, He has their personal regard at affection toa Marked degree. “They are proud of him, and feel ‘that they could not do too much for him.’ FOR HIS PARTY'S SAKE. In 1876 he announced himself a candidate for governor, and in every part of his state his friends went to work for him with a will. That year the democrats held two state conventions. ‘The first chose delegates to the national convention to be held at St. Louls and went no farther, it being held the part of wisdom to wait until after the na- Uonal convention to put the state ticket and plat. form out. At St. Louis the ticket of Tilden and Hendricks wa: nein soon thereafter the stdte convention assembled to nominate state officers, Col. Vest’s irtends were jubilant. They were Sienorente eee, in the majority. A rumor to the effect that the Tilden managers iad pleaded for the pomination of a candidate with a Union record during the war had disturbed the friends of Nest, but they were too full of enthusiasta to pay much attention to it, But when the delegates began to assemble it was observed Unat there was mysterious whtsperings and conter- ences. The upshot Was an authoritative request presented to delegates individually that no ex- Confederate be nominated for governor, It was Tegaided 2s Of great importance to the success of ‘Ube Tilden Uicket that a man with a Unton record be put in the eld. The democrats of Missourt Were not willing to jeopardize the success of the national Ucket, nor was Mr. Vest, He frankly de- clared that he did not share the apprehension as to the injurious effect of the nomination of an ex- Confederate, but admitted t Tilden man. agers ought not to be handicapped. Old and bearded men, bronzed veterans of the civil war and of many hard-fought political fields, actually shed tears because they were impelled to vote against Vest. Col. Phelps, an ex-Union soldier, was nomi- nated for governor, but after the convention ad- Journed scores of the delegates rushed to Mr. Vest's room. ‘They protested agatust the political fortune that had driven them to nominate another man, but consoled themselves. by sayiug, “Never mind, George, we will send you to tbe. Senate,” and within little more than two years they redeemed ‘that promis MR. SHERMAN’S FINANCIAL PLAN. Secretary Fairchild’s Views on the Bill Introduced by the Ohio Sena- tor. In response to a request of the Senate finance committee Secretary Fairchild has expressea his opinion in writing of the Sherman bill for the in- vestment of the funds for the redemption of national vank notes. The bill directs the Secre- tary of the ‘Treasury to invest 80 per cent of the funds heid by the ‘Treasurer of the United States under existing statutes for the redemption of the notes of national banks which have reduced their circulation by the purchase in open market of United States interest-bearing bonds. The bill 1s mandatory. The Secretary 1s further directed to sell in open market go many of the bonds as in his it are necessary to redeem the bank notes ‘are for redemption whenever the untnvested n Of said fundstalls below 20 per cent of the Whole. ‘The Secretary says: ‘The fund to which the visions of this bill would apply. amounted on arch 2, 1888, ta $97,929,741.20, 80 per cent of Which is’ about $78,000,000, Which latter sum it would be the duty of the Secretary of the Treasury at once to invest in United States interest-bearing Bonds at such Fates as he could buy them in the ‘open t. ‘There would, therefore, be simulta- neously a large expansion Of the circulating me- iun and forced purchase of a large amount of bonds, conditions whieh would conspire greatly to advance thetr “Within one year from the time of purchase a large proportion and within three years nearly all of the Donds thus purchased must be sold in Uhe open market, at such prices as they might bring, for the purpose of again getting into the ‘Treasury money to redeem the notes as they are Presented; but now the conditions would be ex- actly the reverse of what they were at the time of purchase; there would be a forced sale of bonds, and at the same time a contraction of the circu- lating medium, conditions which would conspire lower the price of bonds. “Under these circumstances it might happen that enough money would not be realized upon the Sale to enable the Treasurer to fulfill his trust to the people of te country who have in their posses- sion the $97,927,741.20 of bank notes. This would certainly be'the’ case unless the interest which ight accrue upon the bonds should equal the loss eatised by the decline in the price which would re- ‘sult from the conditions above stated, and this 1s not probable.” ‘The Secretary continues, Saying, that after ma- ture consideration, 1t does not seem well to thus forcibly and suddenly expand the circulating me- dium, when ‘would inevitably be fol- lowed ty equal contraction. He says that had such n law been executed several years ago the evil effect would have been less. In conclusion be says: “But even if the national-bank circula- ton should be retired in the future at the same Tate 2s during the past five years, there 1s no rea- son to fear that its place will not be supplied by other forms of circulating media as rapidly as it has been in che past. In “my Judgment, the pur- chase of bonds with the surplus reventies of the Government 1s the only immediate reilef.” a eb sees HARD TIMES, INDEED. Families Suffering for Food and Fucl.
