Mr. Rawlins said he been a member of the committee oj resolutions and platform at the Chi- ago convention, p ting that tar- iff clause that had been under cussion agreed tu. Mr. Lindsay (Kentucky), platform nd, interrupted to ask Mr. Raw- lins, since he presented the tariff clause, why the good old Democratic “werd “only’’ after “tariff for reve- nue’ came to be owitted. Anteutional omission, Mr. asked. “I think Rawlins “I can throw some light on that subject,’’ said Mr. nan, who was also a member of the Committee on Platform at the Chicago convention “It was omitted purposely after dis- cnssion."’ Mr. Rawlins reviewed the cour of the Democratic party in the ea tariff legislation, The essential princi- ple of this was that all burdens and benefits should be borne ly. This Was no wew evangel, no vile reptile or rattlesnake, as Mr. Vest had characterized it, and there was no need of any Democratic Senator in- voking the Almighty against such doctrine, It came to Democratic Senators pure and undetiled from the Democratic fathers and he would support it. Mr. Mills (Dem., Tex.) spoke on the general features of the bill, For two mouths, he said,the congression- ab-committees had sought to adjust and re-wljust again the tariff law, in the interest of a monstrous trast fund which this bill is intended to raise. He came, he said, to speak for the “forgotien man,” the taxpayer, from whose labor and sweat was to be wrung by legislative —_rapine this vast fund for distribution among favered nell Here was a bill of confiscation, he declared proposing to take the property of those wlio were not favorited, the ‘forgotton man’? who is laboring in the and fields, And yet when an explanation was asked’ for the exorbitant es of this bill, ne answer was given, save: ‘What are you going to do about it?’” Mr. Mills warned those on the other side of the chamber to remem Der that Biblical injunction: ‘*For all these things God will bring you into judgment.”’ The process of framing this bill proceeded against the fundamental principle of the Anglo-Saxon doe- trine, that every mans! have a hearing. But there was a tribunal whose doors always stood open, and before that tribunal the projectors of this bill would be summoned, In 1890 a similar act had fallen like the bubonic plague on the country and the tribunal of the people had put the Republican party in quayantine. Mr, Mills referred to the efforts at past Democratic National Conven- tions to lead it away from its funda- mental opposition to a protective tar- iff and to make it ‘‘walk blindfolded into the Republican party as the ad- yooate of class legislation.”’ He spoke of the contest in the Democrat- ic National Convention of 1892, over an unequivocal Democratic de- claration on the tariff, Turning to the Democratic Senators who had voted yesterday for a duty on cotton, Mr, Mills showed how the delegation Georgia, South Carolina and Utah, had supported unequivocal declara moved to rice.
