The tariff dis cussion is beginning to tire the House, and there was a lack of interest in the proceed ings to-day until Mr. Walker, of Massa chusetts, who has a very strong personality and expresses his views in a radical fashion, took the floor. A number of Democrats stirred him up with a continuous cross-fire of questions. During his speech he alluded to the decline in the price of watches, and drew out his own timepiece for the purpose of making an illustration, and laid it on his desk until the time should arrive for him to make his point, but some fun-loving mem ber appropriated it, and when Mr. Walker desired to refer to it it was missing, and he was greeted with tne suggestion mat ne was fortunate enough to retain his chain. On motion of Mr. Durburow, of Illinois, a Senate joint resolution was passed author izing the Librarian of Congress to exhibit certain documents at the World's Fair. Mr. Enloe, of Tennessee, from the Com mittee on Fostofnces and Postroads, re ported a bill to repeal the mail subsidy act. It was placed upon the calendar and the minority was granted leave to file a minor ity report The Urgent Deficiency Bill Passed. Mr. Sayers, of TexaB, presented the con ference report on the urgent deficiency bill, and it was agreed to. As finally passed the bill appropriates $479,641, being $41,228 more than was carried by the bill as il passed the House, and $23,344 less than it carried as passed by the Senate. The House then -went into committee of the whole. Mr. Blount, of Georgia, in the chair, on the free wool bill. Mr. Coombs, of Hew York, concluded his speeoh in favor of the bill. The time had passed, he said, when there was need tor extravagant tarins. He favored a tariff policy by which the financial condition of this Government could be so arranged that we should not be forever collecting more than we spent col lecting for one purpose and expending for another. It was for the interest of all de partments of manufacture and business that the tarifi question should be taken out of politics. They would be relieved of the strain consequent on the uncertainty in volved in political contests. With a "re duction or abolition of the tariff on raw material, an ability to compete with foreign manufacturers on better terms would exist. No matter how this Congress cut down ex penditures, it would not relieve the taxpay ers of this burden so long as the present high taxation remained. Unable to Make Prints En ouch. In response to questions put by Mr. Ding ley, Mr. Coombs said that the cotton manu facturers of this country had so much to do to meet our ever-increasing trade that they had not paid proper attention to the foreign demand. Mr. Blaine, while a member of President Garfield's Cabinet, said that the cost of labor in cotton goods' was as cheap in the United States as in England. The rea son why we did not export more prints was because we could not supply them to the consumers when they wanted them. Mr. Walker, of Massachussetts, said that the great body of statements made by Demo cratic orators on the subject of a protective tariff was not even technically true. The manufacturers of this country 'had not the slightest interest, directly, in a tariff. It was not of the slightest interest to the man ufacturers whether we had free trade or pro tection. They were satisfied with one or the other. If the tariff was.no t in the inter est of farmers and wage workers, then he would vote to repeal it and adopt free trade. Mr. Dockery, of Missouri, asked whether the gentleman meant to say that manufac turers would be as prosperous under free trade as under protection. Mr. Walker replied in the affirmative. Mr. Dockery Then, under the theory of protection the manufacturers merely be come disturbing agents. Mr. Walker That is mere fiction. Mr. Dockery It seems to be the logio of your position. Not Legislating for Manufacturers, Mr. .Walker replied that the manu facturers of the country (what was left of them) would be more prosperous under free trade than under protection, but Congress was not legislating for the manufacturers. It was legislating for the farmers and wage workers. The United States was the lowest taxed country on the face of the earth. Mr. Harter, of Ohio, asserted that in Canada the taxation was 25 per cent less than it was in the United States. Mr. Walker replied that Canada was a country which had failed to collect its taxes for its expenditures and was burdened with debts. We had collected our taxes and paid our debts. Mr. Walker was proceed ing to cite authorities in support of his po sition, when he was advised by Mr. Harter to consult Mr. Blaine. Mr. Walker You may consult Mr.Blaine as much as you like; I choose the men I wish to consult. Laughter. On busi ness questions I consult business men, not politicians. Mr. Walker then entered into a general defense of the McKinley bill, declaring that under it in one year our foreign trade had increased $406,000,000, or 27 per cent increase. The Sugar Bounty Attacked. Mr. Scott, of Illinois, attacked the Mc Kinley law. He held up its injustice and inequalities as bearing on the consumer, ana iaia special stress on the unconstitu tionality of the sugar bounty provision. Mr. Chipman, of Michigan, criticised the recent speech of ex-Speaker Keed, and said that notwithstanding the decision of the Supreme Court, he was still of opinion that the counting of a quorum under the rule of the Fifty-first Congress was an unconsti tutional act. Turning his attention to the tariff, he denounced the system of protec tion as being a paternal system which built eration of the Military Academy appropria tion bill, which was passed. Mr. Pefler introduced a bill, which was referred to the Finance Committee, to regu late the value of, certain coins and pieces of money and to give to all sorts of current money the legal tender quality, and to pro hibit and prevent discrimination in favor of gold coin or bullion as money. Mr. Hale presented the conference report on the urgent deficiency bill, and it was agreed to. The Senate then went Into ex ecutive session. When the doors reopened the Senate adjourned.

Some people can't understand how it is possible fine, high art, ' full length, durable, standard wall paper can be made to sell for 7 cents a bolt, but it can, and we are selling quite a lot of it This is the grade for landlords to buy. We filled an order for a real estate firm for 4 rooms of paper and border. The bill was only $2. 1 5. The tenants made their own selections (without inquiring prices) and were delighted, though they were privileged to buy to an amount not exceeding $4. This is getting the business down fine, but when we are satisfied what need you care? Send for samples of these papers; sent free to any address.
