Dusliore, IV, Sept. 15.1890. •I 111-: TAB IFF «•!•»' 112 tssi.n. Six Honrs of lit'bate «n«! » Vote Promptly Taken. The tariff bill was taken up, on Sept. 10th the question being on its passage, and six hours being al lowed to close the discussion, after which the vote was to be taken. Mr. Hoar, referring to the recipro city proposition, said that lie had voted for it \eslcrrtay with some hesitation and would not have done so if he had thought that the scheme j contained in the amendment was all l that was likely to come out of the j entering on that policy. There was j some great constitutional difficulties in the way which bad been ably j stated by Mr. Evarts. He thought also that on the one side the recipro cal exchanges were incomplete and that they' contained on ono or two articles-, especially tea and hides, that had to be dealt with solely in | the view of internal interests and I without relation to the effect on' other countries of their being taxed i or nntaxod. He thought also that in the forefront of any policy on that question the United States should determine to put an end, as tar as legislation could do it, to the practice of toreign nations imposing export duties on products used here. He would have such product 6 coming from such, nations excluded alto gether from American ports if they could be supplied from elsewhere He, however, regarded the amend ment rather as a declaration of pur pose than as a definition of legisla tive policy ; and it w a s in that view that he had given it his support. Mr. Hiscock commenced liis speech with a bitter arraignment»of Democratic Senators who, lie said, had surpassed their predecessors and themselves in charlatanism, demagogism, misrepresentation and insincere professions of devotion to the industrial interests of the coun try. Every effort to provide free homes and secure tree speech for the labor ing classes had been resisted by the Democratic party up to 1861 by every method which statesmanship could devise and ruffianism execute; and the last great effort had culmin ated in civil war. And that party bad since then opposed all measures that looked to the elevation and to the assurance of equal rights of the laboring classes of the old slave States. Coming directly to the Tariff bill Mr. Hiscock asserted that it had not been constructed with a view to injure commerce, but rather to create and foster commerce. Its effects would be so beneficial that it would remain a long time undisturb ed ; and even the Democrats would change front and proclaim their de votion to the principals of protec tion. He went onto compare the administration of Mr. Harrison with that of ilt. Cleveland, and said that the benefits which had resulted from a Republican administration of pub lic affairs was forcibly illustrated by a comparison of the financial opera tion of the Treasury Department. The largest increase in the internal revenue in any one year during Mr. Cleveland's administration had been 1 $6,568,000; while, without any change in the law the increase of collections for the first full year of Harrison's administration had been Si 1,7000,000. The gain might, fuirly be said, be credited to Republican honesty and efficiency in that one branch of the Treasury Department. The average cost of collections un der Cleveland had beon 3,30 jier cent.; under Harrison only 2.9 per cent. The surplus on the first of March, 1889, had been $48,000,000. There wore then no Lniiod States bonds that could bo called for redemption and the purchases in the latter part of Cleveland's administm tion had not, only greatly reduced the •upply of bonds in the market, but had enhanced the prices to 129 for Is and 100 for Notwilh standing those unfavorable condi tions'there had been purchased during the past eighteen months of Mr. Unrrison's administration £151.- 000.000 of those two classes of bonds, and there had also been redeemed at par about $20,000,000 ot per cent, bonds, making a total reduction of the intercstbearing <h bt of about £71,000,000 as compared with a reduction of about sf">,ooo.- 000 in the corresponding period of the Cleveland administration. The wisdom of the Republican policy with regard to silver was already, Mr. Hiscoek said, apparent in the increased prosperity of the country. The total increase in the value of the wheat crop of 1889 was one hundred and fifiy-four millions dol lars, of the corn crop four hundred and twenty-seven millions and of the oats crop one hundred and eight millions. Nearly nil other farm products, ho said, had advanced in value in a like manner, and if to them were added the increased value of other products of industry the grand total would largely exceed a thousand million dollars. Mr. Gibson called attention to sonic points in the sugar schedule under which, he said, the whole su gar crop of Louisiana would be forced upon the market at a sacri fice of not less than a million or a million and a half, which would be added to the profits of the Sugar Trust, lie wished to have the Sen ale confeiTees made acquainted with the facts. Mr. Turpie addressed the Senate in opposition to the bill. Opening with an allusion to the phrase "pauper labor,'' so often used in the tariff debate, he said that if that meant the labor of inmates of prisons or of eleemosynary institutions he was very certain that none of the products of such labor, cither in Europe or the United States, en tered into the volume of foreign j commerce, and that if it meant the! labor of those v.ho were represented | in the International Congress ofj Labor it should not he qualified as j "pauper." It was true that the 1 laborer of Europe was often verv ill! paid in seme lines, but in the United j States, also, they were often very, wretchedly paid. Mr. Vest, the n< xt speaker, ehai-, acterized it as the culmination orj what called the protective i principle iu this country and as aj glaring illustration ot the historic | truth that class legislation never re-1 ceded. The high protective tariff system was, he said, an unnatural! political stimulant. Like all stimu lants, it \va s a violation of the laws of health. It was a violation of the foundamental principles of honest and fair government, lie congratu lated the country on the passago of the bill, because lie believed that the sooner the crisis was reached and the issue brought to a finish the better it would be for the country and all its material interests. Coming to the question of the di-cay of the foreign commerce of the Uni ted States, lie ridiculed the reason given on the Republican side and said that the great ar.d stupendous cause of its decay was the old navi gation laws—a relic of barbarism. Coining to the question of recipro city, Mr. Vest declared that Mr. Blaine's market was in the wrong place. The people of the West could not give up the market of Great Britain. The English were bound to have the wheat and corn and meat products of the West. The South American people did not want their products and would not take them. All the talk about reciprocity and Pan-American ism, and all the bra»s bands and terrapins and champagne were the merest dross and rot ever undertaken by any sensible men. The South American people would take pro ducts of the United States when the)' could not get them anywhere else or when Americans could under sell British, but not before. Mr. Vest opposed the reciprocity amend ment because it committed to the President powers which were ab horrent to the the principles of the government. Mr. Vance said that in closing the debate ot the Democratic side he was performing a duty, but that he knew that his action was hopeless. One objection Mr. Vance made to the bill was that it was intensely and scandalously sectional. It made sugar free, and sugar was a Southern product. It made the ma chinery for making beet sugar in the Northwest free, and it maintain ed duties on the cane sugar machin ery of Louisiana. Rice was a South ern product, and the duty on rice was reduced. Blinding twine for the Western fields were made free, but the duty on cotton tics was tripled. The presiding ollicer, Mr. lngalls. announced the close ot the three hours to which the Democratic side was entitled. Mr. Vance. —Mr. Welter, when supervising "Samivel" writing his first love lettei, said: "Sammy, mv son, 'uiut that a rayther sudden pulling upr :! (.Laughter. 1 will observe ' lie admonition of the Presi- • dent. Mr. J out:*, of \ evfuli, delivered a i learned and philosophical address j in eomiinondfttioß of the policy of the 'protective system, and illustrative of its effect in developing the mechani cal arts and the industrial forces of a nation. If lie had his way he would make it a tariff of exclusion on all the articles in the production of which the employment of mental and physicial force would have the same results of the United States as elsewhere; and then we would let. the adjustment lake pioee among' the people of the United Stales. At this point of >1 r. Jones' speech the presiding officer (Mr. Ingulls) announced that the six hours as signed for general debate had ex pired. The vrte was then taken and the bill was passed by a strict party vote—yeas, 40; nays, 39 as follows: YEAS. Aldriok, Higgins, Power, Allen, Hiscook, Quay. Allison, lioar, Sanders, Blair, lngalls.

A large delegation fiom Onshore! attended court as usual Monday. Depositions were taken in regard to the new ro:ul fr.,m La Porte to Forksville before Motory of thg Public, John Cionin, at this place | Saturday. Institute has not made it as lively j for the young people here as was anticipated. Supt.. Black seems to : give the attendants enough to do to ! keep thuu busy. The commonwealth case against' Thos. Mahaffev Jr , and John Sharp for stealing chickens from a farmer i near towu was settled Saturday by the parents of the young men.) Mahalley's part was settled for $lB and Sharp's for £2B. The Dushore schools will open on Moudav, October fith with Harry , Molyneux, of Millview, as principal. ! and .Miss Anna Wenrich, of this place will teach the primary grade, The new si liool building will uot | be occupied Lefore Jan. 1, by which ; time it is hoped, two rooms may l>o ready for occupancy. Scout-en's store room, wiiere the wonderful Engle clock has been on exhibition, has been thronged witn people for the past few days. The; clock is a erreat invention and re-. fleets great credit on the bnildcr, S. 1). Engle, of ITazelton, Pa. The entertaintuc'iit is well worth the price of admission. The Republican county conven tion la it week placed a very strong ticket iu the field. The editor will please accept our congratulations on his nomination for commissioner. The prospect in this locality ia that he will carry much mi-re than a party vote, anil ho merits his elec tion which will be easily made. The trial of Mrs. Belle Miller for the murder of J. W. W ilcox, which continued It) days, iu the Bradford county courts, ended on Saturday and the defendant was acquitted. The people of this place were much interested in this trial as the murder was committed within 9 miles of here and Wilcox lived only seven miles away, and was well known in Dushore. John Mann and Mrs. Alice Wilcox, wife of the murdered man, are still to be tried, Mrs. W. having been arrested Saturday. What the outcome will bo can only be guessed at. Public opinion seems to be very much divided in regard to who the real murderer is. j Many if not most of the people litre who have read the evidence, cling to the belief that Belle Miller is the person who struck the fatal blow, while others believe th:it she was in no way connected with the crime. All seem to agree that the other two were, at least accomplices, in plotting the deed if not in its execution. N'lAiroUTE. Msllivnu-l'uiiiiiy \V. c. 'l'.
