It was referred to the committee on foreign re- lations. Mr. Edmunds then reported from the com- mittee on judiciary the bill to pay to the widow of Chief Justice Waite the balance of his y salary, and as Mr. Borry still ob- jected to its immediate consideration the bill was placed on the calendar, On motion of Mr. Spooner the house bill to authorize the building of a bridge or bridges across the Mississippi river at La Crosse, Wis., was taken from the calendar and passed with amendments. The scuato then resumed consideration of the tarift bill, and was addressed by Mr, Hiscock. It was proper, he said, to criticise the recent attempt of the president and of his party to explain away and to misrepre- sent the effect and purpose of the Mills bill, which they claimed to be calculated to bene- fit _rather than to injure American labor and cap) The issue fairly drawn between the two partics. The question was free trade or protection to American labor, Neither subterfuge nor new confessions of faith would conceal or obscure thearenl ques tion. Democratie orators were attempting in the manufacturing districts to shift their ground and to conceal the purposes of their party. But the official utterances of the president and the reports of the secretary of the treasury, emphasized by the Mills bill, whic ad been endorsed by the national democratic convention, and which passed the house by a strict party vote, left no doubt whatever as to the true position of the demo- oratic party on that question, The s bill left no doubt as to the position of the vublican y. Both parties conceded that there should be a reduction of the revenue, and to about the same amount. Therefore the questioh of amount of taxation was not wmvolved in the discussien, but the question was as to the manner in which the reduction shoutd be made. He had examined some of the details of the Mills bill in order to prove that in the preferred reduction there were discriminations in favor of the industries of the confedernte states against the industrics of the northern state Mr. Hawley suggested as an explanation of that fact that of the democratic members of the house ways and means committee, which made up the Mills bill, six were from the confederate states and two from the northern states. Mr. Hiscock proceeded to illustrate his point with further instances drawn from the Mills bill, and intimated that the minority of the senate committee on finance were acting on the same polic, ‘T'he effect of the Mills bill, Mr. Hiscock declared, could not be dis- guised. The scnate bill was equally pro. nounced in character and principle. It fairly Mlustrated the republican policy of protec- tion, and when its provisions became a law it would defend the American market against foreign competition. It was not sectional. Industrics north, south, cast and west were equally provided for init. It was the opposite of the’ Mills bill, The democracy had ten- dered the issue and evs effort should be made to meet it fairly. At the close of Mr. Bate obtained the fl went over till to-me Mr. Edmunds apyp to Mr. Berry to withdraw his objection to a consideration of the bill for the benefit of the widow of Chief Justice Waite, Mr. Berry daclined to withdraw his objec- tion, statinis that that would be equivalent to t to the passage of the bill, which he »d thorou Edmunds thereupon gave notice that he would to-morrow morning mWove to take up the bill for consideration, The scnate then adjourned, rock's remarks Mr. and the tariff il House.
