Mr. Bate offered a long preamble and resola- tion on the subject of the proposed statute to Lafayette in Lafayette square, opposite the White House, condemning the site selected as one that would have the effect of “mixing and | mingling the outlines of the two statues (Jach- fon and Lafayette) im such confusion that it would be impossible to distinguish from the White House whether Jackson was ricing over | Lafayette or Lafayette dodging under Jach- son.” and instructing the committee on the library to examine into the matter. Agreed to. ROCK CREEK RAILWAY BILL PAssr Senate bill to change the route of the Rock Creck railway (District of Columbia) was taken from the calendar, amended and passed, THE SILVER BILL UP AGAIN The Senate then, at 1 p.m., resumed con- sideration of the silver bill and Mr. Jones ) continued the speech begun by him HOUSE, The House, after the transaction of some routine business, went into committee of the whole—Mr, Payson (Ill.) in the chair—on the tariff bill, Mr. McMillin (Tenn.) moved to reduce the duty on ammonia, He could see no reason why this article of necessity to the farmer should be so heavily taxed. Mr. McKinley (Ohio) opposed the amend- ment and stated that since the tariff had en- couraged competition in this country the price of ammonia had been reduced from 20 to 7 cents per pound. PROTECTION DEFENDED. Mr. Butterworth (Ohio) suggested that while he knew nothing of the case under conside: tion the price of an article was not reduced on account of competition alone. It was reduced on account of improved methods of manufac- ture. So far as he was capable of doing he had tried to understand the tariff question and he never doubted that the protective system was wise. humane and beneficent and had scat- tered blessings on the land from shore to shore. If there was any danger to the protec- tive system it was in its oscillation between the extreme of free trade on the one hand and on the other the extreme which er: ties among Americans themselves, try, in the election of Harrison and the repub- lican Congress, bad declare] unequivocally in favor of sustaining and upzolding the protec- tive system, He insisted that and not with national boundary lines. exe when the presence of those national bounda: lines indicated the presence of those condi- | tions, against the influence of which it necessary to interpose the barrier of a protective tariff. Ifthe tariff did not deal with cox ditions then a tariff was good in the abstrac and if it was, the fathers of the republic had paid themselves a poor compliment when they provided that as between the states there should be no restriction of commerce. Com- petition never created a new industry—th were created by the work of the brain, py ventors. The committee had tried to do the best it could in forming the bill, but it was not always safe to rely altogether upon the test: mony of the beneficiaries under a law, [\ plause on the democratic side.) He had indi- cated his belief respecting the PROPER FUNCTION OF A TARIFF act and would sooner resign his seat than depart one hair's breadth from that belief. Of course he respected the wisdom of the committee, but why was Paul favored and Peter turned down? Why increase the profits of certain ciusses? He could name capitalists whose profits had ex- eded those of all of the agriculturists in state of the Union. side.) NOT DISTURBED BY DEMOCRATIC APPLAUSE. He was not, he said, disturbed by the ap- plause on the other side. He was exceedingly grateful that they Legan to realize in any sense that our countrymen deserved protection.

[Democratic applause. ] Mr. Butterworth then procecded to expound his views touching reciprocity with Canada. He said that we were endeavoring to cultivate relations with 50,000,000 people to the south- ward and yet were afraid of Canada. Abraham Lincoln and Ulysses Grant were not suspected of lack of patriotism, yet they favored reci- procity. There was SOMETHING IN THE BILL HE DID NoT LIke. He had known of an industry that had been able to make $60,000,000 dividend on a capital of $1,256,000, Protection! Why the country couid in such cases better afford to keep these men in the Fifth Avenue Hotel, pay their board and expenses and set them up in the banking busincss, He favored proper, Protection, but these auen eld the world in their grip. When he said that he did not favor that kind of pro- tection he was told “you are not sound on the tariff." The time is come when some little concern should be shovn to American homes and American firesides. A great body of em- ployes in this country was foreign—in some reat factories in the east they were kown on the rosters by numbers because of unfamiliar- ity with their names, ‘He did not believe it was wise or prudent to make such a sweeping reduction in sugar to be supplanted by a bounty. PARTING WORDS, In conclusion he said that the gentlemen were very much mistaken if they thought that the greatest desire of his heart was not to pass a bill reflecting in the highest degree a protective system. That he wanged to avoid were such features as he had pointed ont in this bill—there was such a thing as ‘ing too much for an industry. Such was case with tin plate. The duty would bea taxon every farmer's patch: on every can of goods. That tax would amount to $50,000,000 before the manufacturers of tin ‘plate could declare a dividend. was anxious that » coun- | ny | MADE NO CHOICE YET.
