Allen’* Coxey Resolution.
Washington, April 83. — Immedi
ately after the reading of the journal
in the senate yesterday, Mr. Jarvis,
recently appointed from North Caro
lina, to succeed the late Senator
Vance, was sworn in.
Senator Allen’s Coxey resolution
came up, and Mr. Allen stated there
would be no opposition on the Demo
cratic side to its passage.
Mr. Vest, however, opposed it.
These people should be treated the
same as all other citizens of the
United States. If they did not violate
any laws, they would not be molested,
but lie deprecated the introduction of
such a resolution, because it intimated
a want of confidence in the institu
tions and the laws of the land; their
right to come here and visit the cap
itol was so plain, so evident, that any
suspicion about it was a reflection
on the intelligence of the country.
lie was opposed to the preamble,
however, if it meant to include these
men who had trampled on the laws,
injured private property and under
taken to secure transportation to this
city by force of arms, for then he em
phatically dissented from it.
Mr. Wolcott of Colorado entered a
vigorous protest against passing the
resolution. There was to-day no man
who sincerely desired to work for the
support of himself and his family, who
ci hi Id not get work, or bread to put
into tiie mouths of himself and little
ones until work could be found.
■T am tired of this talk of national
demonstration,” he said. “In Colo
rado to-day, crushed and humiliated
as she is by the action of congress, I
venture to say no man is suffering be
cause he can find no work or no wil
ling hands to assist in supporting him
until work can be found for him. I
believe the time has come wken those
of us who are in public life ought to
begin to cultivate wore regard tor the
perpetuity of republican institutions
and to pander less to that miscalled
portion of the labor vote, whose labor
is with their throats and never with
their hands. It is time we stood up
f..r American manhood, for the right
of every man to work if he wants to,
ii it takes the whole army of the
United States to enable him to do so.
The right of every man is to enable
him to enjoy equal liberty with every
other man, and that means he shall
have such liberty as is not inconsist
ent with equal rights of his neighbor;
the right to hold and enjoy the prop
erty which the laws of the country
have enabled him to secure. It is
time we had the courage to stand to
gether against this socialism, popu
lism and paternalism which is running
riot in this country and which must
end (if-not crushed) in the destruc
tion of liberties which the laws give
us, liberties which should be dearer
to us than life itself.”
A number of senators took the pains
to go to Senator Wolcott, after he had
concluded his remarks, and express
their .approbation of what he had said.
At 1:45 o'clock, before any action
had been taken on the resolution, Mr.
Harris moved to take up a resolution
providing that “Jo-morrow and until
otherwise ordered, the senate shall
meet at 11 o’clock a. m.”
Senators Peffer and Allen objected
to the pending resolution being dis
placed and demanded a yea and nay
vote. The vote (which also showed
the attitude of the senate on Mr.
Allen’s resolution) was as follows:
Yeas—Aldrich, Allison, Kate, Berry,
Blackburn, Blanchard, Brice, Caffery,
Call, Camden, Coke, Cullom, Dubois,

SENATOR QUAY SICK.
The rennsylvanlan Unable to Leave Ills
Home—Grave lleports Circulated.
Pittsburg, Pa., April 28.—Senator
Quay had arranged to hold a political
conference here this afternoon and to
attend the American club banquet to
night,but was unable to leave his home
at Beaver. A close friend says he
was taken sick about two weeks
ago, but it was not known to the gen
eral public. His affliction is one that
may take him off without much warn
ing, and the fact that he did not ap
pear here is the best evidence that he
is very ill. The work on his tariff
speech was too much for him in his
then weakened condition and for that
reason his friends fear ho is in a
weaker condition than is generally
believed. _
Extra Guns Sent to Washington.
Springfield, Mass., April 28.—Major
Kexford of the United States armory
here has shipped to the chief of ord
nance at Washington sixty-five car
bines and 100 rifles, forty-five calibre.
The arms were sent by express and
fast freight and have already been re
ceived in Washington. Major Bex
ford says he has 125,000 rifles and a
supply of carbines which can bo
shinned on short notice.
Hanlt Jtobbers frustrated.
Chili.icothe, 51 o., April 28.—An un
successful attempt was made to rob
the Farmers’ bank of Laclede, twenty
miles east of here, last night. The
safe containing 153,000 was blown open,
but the explosion aroused the citizens
and the burglars fled without their
bootv. _
Governors or Missouri.
Jefferson City, Mo.,April 28.—Gov
ernor Stone has begun making a col
lection of portraits of Missouri gov*
ernors which, when completed, w\U
be hung in the grand hall of the exec
utive mansion in the order of their-'
Service.
V
“DOCKING" SALARIES.. '
First Effeet of Attempts to Enforce
Lew In the House.
WAsnwoTOK, April S3.—Mr. Hep
burn of Iowa interposed hits dally ob
jection to the approval of the journal
in the house and compelled a roll-call,
which resulted in its approval—837 to
nothing. The speaker appointed the
following boards of visitors:
To the Military Academy—Messrs.
Black of Illinois, Hatch of Missouri
and Curtis of New York.
To the Naval Academy—Messrs.
Meyer of Louisiana, Outhwaite of Ohio
and llandall of Massachusetts.
At this point became visible the first
effects of the attempt to enforce the
law of 1850 to “dock” members for
absence except on account of sickness.
Mr. Mahon, Republican, Pennsylva
nia, precipitated the matter by rising
to a question of privilege and offering
a resolution directing the sergeant-at
arms to pay members their salaries
without deductions on account of ab
sence unless such absence is first cer
tified by some duly authorized officer
of the house.
A point of order was raised by Mr.
Kilgore and supported by several
Democrats, that the resolution did
not present a question of privilege.
The point was sustained by the
speaker on the ground that it was a
matter of law and not under the
control of the house.
“Rut that is not the law,” inter
jected Mr. Reed. “That,” said the
speaker, “is not a question for the
house to determine.” He added he
should decline to certify salaries
unless members informed him how
much salary was due them.
Another resolution was promptly
offered by Mr. Mahon, declaring that
the sergeant-at-arms, in the absence
of any rule, has no authority to re
quire members to report absences and
reasons therefor. This also was ruled
out of order, and an appeal was laid
on the table by a strict party vote,
except that Mr. Lucas (Republican)
of South Dakota voted with the Dem
ocrats.
The diplomatic and consular appro
priation bill was then taken up and
after debate passed. The bill as pass
ed carried $1,513,538, a decrease of
$46,706 compared with the appropria
tion for the current year. At 5 o’clock
the house adjourned.
TARIFF CHANGES AGREED ON.
Will Bo in the Income Tax and Sugar
Schedule.
Washinotn, April 2S.—The principal
changes to be made in the tariff bill,
in accordance with the agreement
made by the Democratic senators yes
terday, are in the income tax and
sugar schedules. Tho sugar men have
been from tho first clamorous for
an advalorem instead of a specific
duty, and that change has been con
ceded. The details have not been ab
solutely fixed, but there is little doubt
the sugar schedule will be entirely
supplanted by a new one, which will
provide a uniform duty of 40 per cent
ad valorem, with an addition of one
eighth of a cent for refined sugar.
The principal change in the income
tax, is a provision for the limitation
of the time the law shall remain in
operation. It will probably bo about
five or six years. There will be no
change‘in the rete of taxation, which
will be left at 2 per cent on amounts
in excess of SI.000.
A number of changes in the rate of
duty will be made in the iron sched
ule, in which there will be a slight ad
vance over the rates fixed by tho
pending bill. Carpets, also, will se
cure an advance. In many cases the
rates fixed in the house bill replace
those of the bill reported to tile sen
ate by the finance committee.
Another material concession which
will be made to the disaffected sena
tors will be the restoration of the spe
cific system in many places where the
finance committee changed the house
bill by the substitution of ad valorem
duty.
It is understood that the entire Dem
ocratic majority of the finance com
mittee is in hearty accord upon the
wisdom of the proposed changes.
ELEVEN O’CLOCK TOO EARLY.
Few Senator. Fresent When the Scion
Began—A Walt for a Quorum,
Washington, April £3.—Not more
than a dozen senators listened tor the
prayer of the chaplain when the sen
ate met at 11 o’clock to-day. Mr. Har
ris, who had moved the early session,
was on hand with several of his Dem
ocratic colleagues.
During the reading of the journal a
few senators came in, but there was
still a sparce attendance when Mr.
Gallinger of New Hampshire ■ inter
rupted the reading of the journal to
suggest the absence of a quorum. The
roil was called and on ly thirty-nine
senators answered to their names.
As soon as the quorum had been se
cured. Mr. Lindsay of Kentucky,spoke
on the tariff. He scored the recalcit
rant Democrats, defended the Wilson
bill and declared that tariff reform
would produce better times perma
nently. He was no foe of the rich
but he knew that the class had been
unjustly aided by high protection and
he believed therefore in an income
tax. He denied that there was any
discrimination in the proposed meas
ure and declared that the high pro
tection sj’stem caused the strikes at
Homestead, Pa.
.sir. auerman uispuieu me assertion
of Mr. Lindsay that the strikes at
Homestead were due to the McKinley
bill and the latter retorted that the
manufacturers’ natural desire was to
reduce wages without respect to rates
of duties
Mr. Cullorn next addressed the sen
ate in favor of protection and in oppo
sition to the Democratic policy.
Unemployed With a Red Flap.
Escanaba, Mich., April 2S.—A mob
of 500 unemplo3-ed miners paraded
the streets of Iron Mountain to-day
carrying a red flag and demanding
food or work. The mayor will send a
committee to Lansing to plead with
Governor Rich for help.
Father of Forty Children.
Jacksonville, Fla., April 28.—
Abram Corrant died to-day at the age
of 94. He was a veteran of the Mexi
can and Indian wars. He. had been
married twice and was the father of
\forty children.
\
REPUBLICAN DOCTRINE.
BOMB COMPARISONS.
Democratic Tariff-Platform of ISIS,
with Horace Greeley for President, and
That of 1SVS with Grover Cleveland.
During' all tho present generation!
modern democracy lias been prolifio In
queer tariff platforms, never right even
by mistake, and each one strangled in
tickle disgust before the birth of its
quadrennial successor. Let us rescue
some oblivion. In 1872, they took the
greatest known advocate of protection,
he who styled h imself a ferocious protec
tionist, Horace lirceley, for their pres
idential candidate. The platform on
which they crowded their organized
appetite for spoils und the highest apos
tle of protection to everything Ameri
can, labor, manufacturers and all, de
clared that owing to differences of
opinion they remitted the discussion to
the people in their respective congres
sional districts and the decision to con
gress “wholly free from executive in
terference or dictation.’’ That is prob
ably where General Hancock imbibed
the idea that the tariff was a local af
fair.
In 1892 their tariff bantling seems to
be subjected to severe executive inter
ference and like its predecessors will
be moribund and unsavory long before
1890 has arrived.
The McKinley net protected labor
and manufacturers, paid expenses of
government and left a surplus. Dem
ocratic free trade brings "a deficit, an
income tax and issues gold bonds to
pay current expenses.
The McKinley bill while it protected
American wage earners of all classes,
farmers, operatives, builders, etc., pro
vided sufficient revenues to carry on
the government, to meet all our obli
gations to the veterans, to carry on
needed public works, increase our
navy and extend our foreign trade.
Here are the figures:
lleceipts and expenditures of the gov
ernment for the. fiscal years 1891 to
1893 inclusive:
Total ex
penditures,
Including
premium.
Excess of
revenue
over expen
ditures.

33.),HIS,02-'.7.31 3.31,477,'J .4. dl
From this it will be observed that
during’ each of these years the reve
nues derived under the act of 1890 were
somewhat in exeess of government
needs.
■Since July, 1803, the'receipts have fall
en off at the rate of some $83,000,000
per annum but this decline in the pub
lic revenues during’ the present fiscal
year is not attributable to any defect
in the law of 1800, but to the general
derangement and prostration of busi
ness throughout the country. The as
cendency of a political party pledged
to the destruction of our protective pol
icy has not only crippled and suspended
the operation of our domestic manufac
turers, but the importer oi foreign fab
rics naturally curtails his importations
in the hope of securing their admission
into our markets upon more favorable
conditions.
If the election of 1802 had resulted in
the retention of the republican party
in power, accompanied as it would have
been with the assurance of the contin
uance of the American policy of pro
tection, the effect upon the public rev
enues as well as the general prosperity
of the country would have been entirely
reversed. In support of this opinion 1
beg to refer to the report of the secre
tary of the treasury of December 5,
1892, wherein he estimates the revenues
of the government under the act of
1890, for the fiscal year ending June 30,
1894, as follows:
From customs..8210,0 0,001 00
From internal revenue. 175,0.0,000 00
From miscellaneous sources.... 2J,000,000 00
From postal service. 8>,125,3tt5 :.s
Total estimated revenue ... 490,1:1,305 38
The secretary also estimated
the total expenditures of the
government /ortho fiscal year
ending .1 une 30, 1 04, exclusive of
the sinking fund at. 4'>7,301,334 33
Leaving an estimated surplusof 32,801,030 05
This surplus has gone glimmering,
and our democratic friends will try an
income tax and the issue of gold inter
est bearing bonds to keep the govern
ment going.
WHAT THE M’lilNLEY ACT DID TO FOSTER
HOME MANCFACTORES, INCREASE LA
BOR AND DEVELOP HOME MAR
KETS.
As a measure of protection to Ameri
can industries and American labor, the
act of 1890 in its results more than jus
tified the predictions of its friends.
That it would stimulate the develop
ment of new enterprises and promote
the growth of established industries
was confidently asserted, but that its
beneficent effect would be so quickly
manifest and so marvelous exceeded
the hopes of the most sanguine. It in
duced capital to embark in untried ven
tures, enlarged the field of labor’s pro
fitable employment, augmented our
domestic and foreign trade, and quick
ened with a new life the manifold in
dustries of our people.
President Harrison only affirmed the
truth of history when in his last an
nual message to congress he said:
“So high a degree of prosperity and
so general a diffusion of the comforts
life were never before enjoyed by our
people.”
1 ills exuuani uceiarauon maue oul a
little over one year afro, incredible as
it seems in the midst of present appall
ing: conditions, was nevertheless
grounded on indisputable facta
The American Economist, a journal of
the highest character, in its issue of
October 22, 1892, published the result
of a partial census of the industrial
growth of the country under the act of
1890, which disclosed that from the
time that act went into effect, October,
C, 1890, 345 new industries had been es
tablished in the United States and 108
existing plants extended and improved,
demanding an increased outlay of $40,
409,050 in capital and the employment
pf 75,000 additional laborers. In the
textile industries alone, during the first
six months of ISO'.'. 135 new factories
were built, comprising
40 cotton mills (21 of which were lo
cated in the southern states),
48 knitting mills,
20 woolen mills,
15 silk mills,
4 plush mills, and
2 linen mills.
In September. 1892, there were 15,
200,000 working spindles, ?.n increase
of 0G0,000 over 1891; while during the
ye»r 1891. American mills consumed
2.390.000 bales of cotton in the manu
facture of domestic fabrics; it required
8.584.000 bales in 1892, showing1 an in
creased consumption of i88,ooo bales in
a single year.
The report of the commissioner of
labor for the state of New York disclos
es the astounding fact that in 07 dif
ferent industries in that state the value
of the Increased output in 1891 over 1800
was 831,315,130.68, Involving an in
creased bestowtnent of wages of 8(1,377,
025.09,
liy the labor report for tho stnte *of
Massachusetts it appears that 3,745 in
dustries in that stute paid to labor in
1891 8129.410,248, against 8180,030,303
in 1890, an enlarged expenditure of
83,335,945 in wages alone, with an in
crease of 7,340 employes and an aug
mented investment of capital to the
amount of 89,932,490.
We are not doing this sort of' busi
ness now-a-days. On the contrary we
are trying vainly to find “where wo
are at ”
DEMOCRATIC rnoPHECIRS AS TO THE
M’KIM.KY ACT AND THE PRACTICAL
RESULTS.
You said it would develop no new in
dustries—it created them by the hun
dreds. You said it would bring no re
sultant benefits to our workmen—it se
cured for them enlnrgod employment
and increased wages. You said it
would enhance tho cost of the protocted
article—it cheapened it to tho con
sumer. You said it would diminish our
foreign trade—it augmented it in 1892
to 81,857,680,616, an increase over the
previous year of $128,283,004. You said
it would shut out our products from
foreign markets—our export trade in
creased $145,797,388. swelling its vol
ume to $1,030,278,148, the largest ever
known in the history of the country
and exceeding tho value of our imports
by $202,875,686. You said it would par
alyze our domestic trade—it was never
more vigorous than in the years imme
diately following its enactment. Anil
so every prophecy of ill found swift
and complete refutation in increased
industrial activity on every hand and
enhanced individual and national pros
perity.
Tlie McKinley tariff never closed a
mill in the United States, shut up a
mine, stopped a wheel [applause], blew
out a furnace fire, or drove a single j
workman into tlie streets. [Applause. | ■■
This general paralysis of business
throughout the county comes solely
from the ascendancy of a political
party pledged to the repeal of the act
of 1890, and tho substitution therefor
of a turiff divested of ail protective fea
tures. With such a party in full con
trol of the government is it any wonder
that domestic manufacturers suspended
operations until advised of the condi
tions under which they must market
their output?
Business prudence dictated the sus
pension of the manufacture of domes
tic fabrics with high-priced labor until
the conditions should be determined
upon which the foreign competing pro
ducts should be permitted to enter our
markets. Importers naturally limited
their orders to the strict necessities of
trade in anticipation of more favorable
conditions. And so manufacturer and
importer alike prudently suspended
business until the democratic party
should fix the terms upon which they
would be permitted to resume. When
the judge pronounces the sentence of
death on the convicted felon there is no
change in the law, but the victim is
apt to lose interest in human allairs.
On an ocean voyage the chart and com
pass may reupiin undisturbed, but with
a madman at the wheel and a lunatic
on the bridge the interest of the pas
sengers will be chiefly centered in the
suppiy of life-preservers.
Let us Translate the Democratic Meaning
of “Tariff Reform." It Means Free
Trade but Dare not Own It.
You have not now conjured with
these words for the last time. Having
ceased to be mysterious they wilt lose
their magic power to deceive anjl mis
lead the people. “Tariff reform” is
finally interpreted to mean “free raw
material” and reduction of duties on
competing foreign products entering
our markets below the protective point,
regardless of the consequences to Amer
ican industries or American labor.
This la “tariff reform.”
Before proceeding to a specific expla
nation, I desire to say that this meas
ure as a whole stands without a parallel
in the history of proposed tariff legisla
tion in this country. It was framed
with the evident intention of carrying
out that portion of the democratic plat
form and policy which declared for a
“tariff for revenue only,” and is the
boldest step yet taken by any party in
the United States in the direction of
free trade—a step which if it shall find
popular following in this country, will
certainly lead to individual disaster and
national bankruptcy.
But daring as is the advance made, it
seems from the report of the committee
that while adhering to the doctrine of
the unconstitutionality of the protec
tive tariff, the majority have been re
strained in their headlong course
toward free trade by the “existence of
great industries” which impede their
progress and which they hesitate to ut
terly destroy; and then in apologetic
tone assure their followers and the
country that “the bill is not offered as
a complete response to the mandate of
the American people” and does not
“profess to be purged from all protec
tion.”
Are we theu to understand that fur
ther “response” from the democratic
party may be expected, in which the
tariff is to be wholly “purged from all
protection” and the destruction of
American industries and the pauperiza
tion of American workmen fully con
summated? Is this the prospect you
hold out to a people already driven by
your threatened policy- to the very
verge of despair and desperation? If
such is your purpose, the only escape
then lies in the hope that long before
you are able to complete your desolat
ing work an indignant people will
drive you forever from power.
And in this connection I desire to say
that, whatever may have been the pur
i pose of the majority- in framing this
oill, that in so far as it conforms to the
democratic platform of 1 H'.i“ it will, if
enacted iato law, prove disastrous to
the interests involved, and in so far as
it fails to redeem the party pledges it
I is either a confession of error or an ex
i liihition of cowardice. If in error you
ought to be patriotic enough to
I promptly- avow it, abandon the policy
upon which you have entered, end per
mit the country to resume its industrial
prosperity. If, on the other hand, you
still adhere to the principles of the
Chihago platform and have fuiled to
! embody them in this measure, you have
openly betrayed tho confidence of the
people who Intrusted you with power.
Let us take np tho often repeuted
statement that free trade would give us
a wider market for our surplus products.
The assertion Is constantly made that
if we do not buy of foreign countries
they will not buy of us. I have, on
former occasions, called attention to
the fact that we do not buy of any for
eign nation; that Is, of tho government;
and no foreign nation buys of us. Our
foreign commerce is carried on by In
dividuals, and is regulated, like all
commercial transactions, by selfish In
terests. If an Importer is about to pur
chase goods, ho dpes not stop to inquire
whether the balance of trade is In our
favor or against us, or what tho tariff
laws of other countries are. lie buys
where ho cun buy what lie wants cheap
est, and pays for his purchases with
gold.
Our own experience shows that tho
balance of trade with other countries
may be largely In our favor for years
ana the balance bo received in gold.
Our experience with other countries,
lirar.il for instnneo, shows that wc con
tinue a large foreign trade although
the balance of trudo may bo, for many
years, against us. Tlio balance of trado
between the United States and ilrar.il
has been for years against us to tlio ex
tent of about 5550,000,000 per annum.
The fact is that other couutrles buy of
our products every year all they need
for consumption. They would continue
to do so if they could buy as cheaply of
us as elsewhere, even though we were
to build a Chinese wall around this
country to prevent the importation of
foreign products. And if we were to
admit everything produced in foreign
countries free of duty theso samo for
eign countries, or rather the inhabi
tants of these countries, would not buy
a dollar's worth of our products unless
these products could be purchased upon
tho most advantageous torms, or tholr
necessities compelled them to purchase.
We might adopt free trade, and our
wheat, corn, cotton, pork, and beef
would still be compelled to compete in
tho markets of Kuropo with the pro
ducts of every other country under the
sun produced by cheap lands and cheap
labor, and their price in London would
be fixed, as it now is in London, in gold,
by the universal law of supply and de
mand. Mr. President, there never was
a greater fallacy than that free trado
would give us a wider or better market
for our agricultural products. It would,
on the the contrary, drive millions of
men now engaged in manufacturing to
agricultural pursuits, resulting in in
creased production and depreciated
prices.

In issuing a call to the Republican
State League clubs and all republicans,
we feel confident that at tlio present
time we are addressing a very large
majority of the people of our state.
There is no place where education
comes so high as in the school of ex
perience. The experimental political
school of the past two years has grad
uated into the time honored republican
party a greater number of honest,
thoughtful men than has ever been
known in the history of any political
organization.
The great body ol the people who
were dazzled by the false cry of repub
lican misrule and tariff robbery, and
the glittering democratic promises of
better times, cheaper goods, higher
wages, and the sophistry and hypocrisy
of more money, have for the past year
experienced the result, and are now im
patiently awaiting the opportunity to
aid by their votes in the grand work of
rebuilding the tottering temple of
American industries and the restoration
of American progress and prosperity.
To that end they instinctively turn to
that party who by wise and careful leg- I
islation have dignified American labor, !
built up a sound financial policy, and
established a credit which has been the
envy of the financial world, a party
that for thirty years run this great
government without resorting to issu
ing millions of dollars of bonds to pay
its annual running expenses.
The republican league stands ready
to take the first step in preparing to
meet the great national emergency that
confronts ns, and with that end in new
we earnesty request active organiza
tion of republican league clubs in all
parts of the state and that you send
full delegations to our state league !
meeting. I. \Y. L A xsi no,

Secretary.

Getting
Thin
is often equivalent to
eqi
getting ill. If loss of flesh
can be arrested and dis
ease baffled the “weak
spots ” in the system are
eradicated.
Scott’s Emulsion
is an absolute corrective
of “ weak spots.” It is a
builder of worn out failing
tissue—natures food that
stops waste ana creates
healthy flesh.
