Wahiiinotok, April 3. Tbe tariff
tebat io the annate began at 2 o clrx
fli i afternoon, Mr. Voorhwn arising
arold an Impressive scene and calling
vp the senate measure. T Im n he
mod tbe oprnlnif address.
"Tbe protective system of tariff
taxation a developed ana jsswnea
fiiKin the business and laWr of the
American people, especially durinjr
the third of ft century punt, growing
worn at every st&ffe, la a system of
Indescribably Injustice and oppres
sion; and yet who will contend that
all Its vicious principle and workman,
ramified ax they are through every
branch of trade and commerce, can
be annihilated by a single blow, or
totally wiped out ty a single. Icjfihlit
tive enactment. Tor the bill
now under consideration, no such
claim is made, but in Ha
behalf ran be truthfully asserted, and
4:an be successfully inuintained, that
it accomplishes a vast work In the
field of tariff reform, embolic a great
relief to the people from iniquitous
existing burdens, and constitute a
lonjr stride, though not a final one
tow anl the approaching day of a full
and jtcrfect deliverance.
Kir, I challenge the attention of the
aenate and tbe country to the great
and commanding fuel that by pro
vision of this bill the seeming para
dox of a reduction of taxes unit at the
same time an Increase in public re vo
mica will be reconciled when It be
coiricN a law."
Mr. Voorheea referred to the reduc
tions of 170,000,000 in duties, esjiecittl
ly on woolen inunufiiet ures and addi
tions to the free list and to the further
' fact that the bill, while relieving the
jsfoplt! also provides for a full and
ample revenue and declared that the
iiteusurn would tie the rock
n which the temple of tariff
reform would be built. He then
referred briefly to the concessions
nt'cessii ry and apologized for some of
them. Then he attacked the dicta
torial trusts and combines and scored
the McKiuley law as iniquitous in
every way, doing no good to the
musses and resulting in reductions of
wuges in even the uioat highly favored
Industries.
Mr, Vcmrbeea defended the ad va
lorem system and then declared that
a moderate duty on sugar bad always
been a staunch revenue support of the
government and relieved other arti
cle of even higher necessity in the
economy of life. He attacked the
sugar bounty system as a mere gratu
ity taken from wheat, corn and grain
raiser and laborer of all kinds to
benefit a class. He declared for an
ven higher tax on whisky, but in
dorsed the proposed schedule.
Of the wool Hchedulo Mr. Voorheea
said that he could not believe that
free wool would be anything but a
blessing to the farmer; he would not
vote for it but be was sure that It
would result in general benefit
Speaking of the proposed income
tax, which he warmly applauded, Mr.
Voorheea said:
"The proposition contained In the
pending bill to levy a tax of two per
cent on all net income of corpora
tions and of individual in excess of
$4,000 per annum Is bo lust and equita
ble toward the hard working tax
payer of meager resources throughout
the entire country not a word in
it defense or explanation would
ftccm necessary hero or anywhere
else, ltut the narrow and corroding
selfishness of riches has been arroused
by this simple measure of justice into
fierce resentment and contention. We
hear on all hands the dictatorial voice
of individual and corporation wealth
demanding that it ahull not be dis
turbed by the demands of the slight
st touch of the tax gatherer, what
ever may lie the demands of the gov
ornment or the oppression of the toil
ing masse.
"For uo earthly consideration
would I paint an unjust or over
wrought picture of the dangerous
pretensions and intolerable arrogance
of accumulated weulth now manifest
in this country, but speaking in the
fear of my Maker f devoutly be
lieve the limit of endurance has
been reached, that the time has come
for ft test to bo in ado between 1 he
power of hoarded money and the
power of productive labor; that the
people from this time forward, mare
than ever before, will organize and
take rapid and hernia measure against
the eoutinued and brutal dictation of
plutocracy, against the paramount in
fluence of wealth, against the rule
tud supremacy of the rich in thnplng
ih Infernal policy of this government
it heir own interest. H

it could be done lu large quantities, that

great pleasure in doing anything tor)

Am very much obliged to you
for the interofct you manifest in try i jg
tj help tue In our store deal, and au
other thing you spoke of in a former
letter that strikes uio very forcibly and
favorably, that is in regard to the orIer
owning the mortgaged farms of lt
members, I wish the idea could be
iiiad practicable, for I can plainly tec
that if present conditions continue to
exist it Is only a matter of a short time
until all the laud In the United States
will be owned by the moneyed power of
this country and F.urope, and we farm
er will be living under the landlord
system. It seems strange that more of
the farming and laboring class cannot
e bow things are going with them.
Yours fraternally,

ftitj, AH the world otr there are
4tlmii and tlarlf thlsgt-thlofs
wnlca totes tbeamlnt oa our seas,
which dazzle our eyes and stun our cart,
thiniji that are sten; but tide by side
with them there are sliest, lurking
forces that never disclose themselves to
the eye, and these are by far the more
retl and lasting of tbe two.
What strength shall ever best down
these freedom-destroying combines
backed by inexhaustible wealth, com
bines which laugh at justice, honesty
tad purity. But bave I not named tbe
forces which shall ruin them? Shall
not freedom, purity and justice, these
Invisible forces which they laugh to
scorn and utterly ignore, ruin them?
That they will come to grief sooner or
later there can be no doubt. I can point
to one cause which will, give It time
enough, overthrow all their deep laid
schemes, and that is this, their press,
the subsidized goldbug press tells ilea
about everytblng.omitting no chance to
lie in tbe interest of its owners and
patrons. When the great rcais of the
people become convinced of this, there
will be an upheaval, and tbe people are
finding that out every day; and when
the confidence of any one Is destroyed
it takea yean of righteous living to re
store it again. The vices of our rulers
bave almost destroyed tbe Uepublic,
But the virtue of tbe people will (God
helping) restore it. But I don't want to
make this too long, to let me tay to
very Populist brother that honesty,
purity, love and freedom never bave to
great a chance to become the main
spring of our existence as when the per
son Is filled with a communion with God
In Christ.

Editor Wealth Makers:
I think the good people of this state
should do all la their power toassist the
party to success in Oregon in June, and
If a few of our best speakers could go
there for a f aw week's it might be of
great beneht to them and in case that
state is carried by our party it would
greatly encourage many in this state.
If the voters of this state will send a
little money to the committee In Oregon
to help ttiem for their Juno campaign I
am suro It would be sending money for
a good cause.
The people are dissatisfied every
where, and if they can hem the true
doctrines of political emancipation they
are now r I pa to accept the tame, Dur
ing a weeks visit in Missouri I have
learned that the mmisors of our party
are now getting the notice of the voters
there, tnd very few of the old time
DomocraU euJorte Cleveland. One
thing Is nneouraglng, and that is that
the Souther states will never go Ke
publican, but wtten tbe chatge it made
it will be to the lVpaluta. Missouri Is
a strong silver state, arid I do not think
that John Soevelaad tnd G rover ther
mae, will gt endorsed whta the state
convention meets. The ous thing that
amused me while there was the fact
that the administrate n Democrats of
Missouri are tr;ttig to make the voters
think that tho People's party is a It
publican msettiee. How dltTsrsut up in
thts sat where ltpubllon a(Tct to
believe the IVopls't party It a 1uh
