gram to TUB BKE. ] Last nlpht brought
little rest to the leaders of the contest in the
Btato convention , but the morning brought
victory to tbo Crounso men ,
These from Douglas county who had
iworvod from their allegiance to the county's
cholro cumo back und gave submission to the
Instructions under which they were sent
here. Their break hud foiled to stampede
tbo convention , and their mistake wai too
apparent to need pointing out. On the other
bund many dolepatcs who had voted for
other candidates on the ballots taken ycstor-
dny had given nbsuranco of their Intention
to vote fur Juugo Crounso this morning. So
when tha convention reassembled there wore
enough and moro votes pledged to Judge
Crounso's support to hisuro bis nomination.
The only point on whicti any dispute 'was '
raised was over the nomination for state
auditor. Tom Bcuton mudo a hard bght for
Bowermun , but could not carry him through.
Mooro'a friends made a steady contest for
him and filially won iu a rush..loo Bartluy
hnd llttlo trouble in securing enough votes'
to nominate on the first ballot , nnd the rest
were named by acclamation.

At this moment Mr. Moore appeared on
the platform and was Introdttcod to the con

Cullom Buld the pcoplo of Chlcacro were

ungraciously to Chicago llku u bone to a dog.
If the bill btood olono without lib surround

called for the srmpathy of the people ; and
Mr. Sherman did not BOO tbat congress could

Mr. Allison said that ha would stnta In
general terms the appropriations ot this ses
sion as compared with the appropriations of
the first session of tbo Fifty-llrst congress.
The appropriations of that session were In
round numbers M IK ! , 000,000 and those of the
present cession $ .YJ7,000,000 , Knowing nn In
crease nt this session of $14,000,000. The
principal Increases were In appropriations
for pensions nnd for the PoMontco depart
ment. There wcro some diminutions at tbo
present sesblon , notably In doilclonclos to the
amount of $5,000,000. Tboro was also a
diminution of M,000,000 in miscellaneous ap
propriations.
Ho believed that thcro was not a single
public building bill that bad passed both
houses this cession ,
Mr. Gorman , a member of the committco
on appropriations , commended the chairman
of that committco for his candid statement.
It remained , however , that tbo appropria
tions at this session would exceed $500,000-
000 , notwithstanding the extraordinary ef
forts of the house of representatives to keep
them within reasonable bounds. It was not
altogether n party matter , for those Immense
appropriations wcro partly mndo necessary
because of tno growth of the country , the o-c-
tonslon of the postal system and thu expan
sion of the pension nnd other pornianont nnd
necessary expenditures for which nolthttr
party should bo held responsible. Of tbo
Immense sum of jr > 07,000,000 npproprlatod nt
the present session $00,000,000 had become
necessary because of the legislation of the
Fifty-first congress a congress for which
the democratic party had no responsibility.

Messrs. Allison and Gorman were ap

President Pro Tom Miihderson lor the dlg-
nllled , impartial and courteous manner In

At 1Ci.W Mr. Allison , of the committee to

"Before making the announcement tbat

desires to pay a personal tribute of respect

WASHINGTON , D. C. , Aug. 5. The commit
tee on ways and moans , through Mr. Mo-
Milliu , today made an unanimous report adverse -
verso to tba subtransury bill. The report U
n long document and discusses all phases of
tbu question. The objoutlous to tbo bill ar ?
briclly stated as follows :
If there should be a reduction In value of
goods after they arc stored , below S per
cent , the government would lese ; if tha
value increased tbo government would gat
none of the profit. Tbo jurisdiction of the
federal courts would bo Increased as to make
thorn an instrument of oppression to the
pcoplo. The bill lands stronuly towards
centralization and interferes with Individual
freedom. Great fluctuation In currency
would follow Its enactment.
Tbo operation of tbo bill would not bo con
fined to farmers , nut to the Iron man , the
lumberman und manufacturers generally
would complain until tbo govrrmont fixed u
limit to possible loss of 'M par cunt to them ,
and so on. The government would bo usurp
ing the functions of the citizens in attending
to ovorybodys business but Its own. The
Inauguration of the suhomo would bo the
speculator's delight ; ho could carry SITJ.OiM
worth of wheat w 1th less than $ 'J3,000 ' cash ,
und pay the government only 1 par cent In
terest. Tha great Increase In the niumbur of
federal olllcials would muko It almost Im
possibly to dislodcon corrupt ndnilnlsti'atlon ,
No provision Is made for the reception of
many millions to bi Issued under Iho bill , and
tba banks would havu the power to force a
destruction of any part of tha government
monny. Tba bill is vlasn legislation nnd i t
would bo unjust to tbo day laborer and other
toilers. People having a particular kind of
property to deposit could got , mor.oy at 1 per
cent from the government and lend It at a
higher ruto to other persons. Lastly , it Is
vlolutlvo of tbo constitution.

presentation ol the differences between tha
two great political parties on this Important
question. Tbo speaker disdained to use the
tactics of buncombe and sophistry BO often
affected by stump spoakors. Ho roiled on a
plain statement ot indisputable facts and
Iho logic of his arguments was irrosistiblo.
ll/i dealt with the subject not as a politician
but with the genius of a statesman , His
reasoning was that of a master of the ques
tion who saw In it first of all the bonoilts to
accrue to the masses uf tbo pooplo. Ho did
not generalize to any extent upon superficial
applications , but considered the tariff ques
tion in it * broadest snnso , and his arguments
mot effectually demolished the puny ef
forts of the opponents of tbo protective
system.

In his Introduction Major McKinley said
that ho did not como to appeal to tbu preju
dices of bis audloncu nor to excite their pas-
ulnns , but to present simply and frankly tha
dllTeroi.co between the two great political
purlles of the country on the tariff question ,
) lo defined this existing difference in a man-
"
"her that In a few sentences made clear tbo
theories of each party. Tlio democratic party
stood far a tariff for revenue , whllo tbo re
publican party maintained ono for protection
to American Industries and American labor
as well. Tbo democratic dootrino Itnposod n
tariff on articles which could not bo pioduced.
In this country , whllo tbo republican prliioi-
plo was exactly opposite , The protective
tariff , whllo raising ruvonuo , discriminated
In favor of the domestic producer and
ugulust the foreign producer.

Lifting the earthen pitcher that stood on
th'j table besldo him , Major MuKluloy said :
"Wo put a turiff of C5 per cant on thai
pitchur. That turiff bus a tendency to du-
couruxe foreign importations and to encour
age domestic manufacture. It was put there
for that purpose. I know It , for I put It
there myself. "
At this point the speaKer was forced to
jitop bcforo the hurricane of appUuuo that
followed. As soou as qulot was restored ho-
continued :
"I nut it there In IbSU and it has fulfilled
Its purpose. Wo now havu tha lineal pottery

pitcher is cheaper than it ever was boforo. "
