I feel that the princl- pal involved in what the gentleman from West Virginia regarded as the motive power of the bill, ought to be discussed. His proposition is that we should repeal the differential because it is demanded by Prussia under her alleged treaty rights. Germany adopts a bounty system to enable her mer- chants to find a market for their sugar, This bounty acts directly against our economic principles. “We seek to offset tt with a qunter= " vailing tax.
