Views of Prominent Men
on the Tariff Bill.
Washington, Aug. 15. Senator
Walsh, of Georgia, when asked for his
cstiirtute of the tariff bill us it passed
the house, said:
"The senate bill is essentially a com
promise measure. It represents the
bfst that could be attained during the
present session, and the attainable
should always be accepted by conser
vative men in matters of legislation.
"The senate bill is a long step in the
revival of the protective duties. It is
the beginning of thu end of the light
for tariff reform. It is a compliance
with the spirit of the pledges of the
democratic party, and the contest will
go on until the letter Is also fulfilled.
"With the parties so evenly divided
in the senate, democrats should rejoice
that even that such substantial pro
gress should have been made in the
reduction of the duties und thu revival
of commercial restriction.
"Had the democrats been united, it
was possible that tho republicans |
have tillbustered indefinitely and ,
the house have prevented tariff legis- j
lation during the present session.
"In place of damning the senate bill j
with faint praise und bringing it into I
ridicule and contempt, the democratic
press should use its influence to creato
a Just public opinion as to the real
merits of the senate bill. When prop
erly presented as the best measure of
tariff reform attainable, the conserva
tive sentiment of the country will set
tle down to the conviction that very
substantial progress has been made In
tho direction of real tariff reform and
freer trade among the nations.
"Those who have been denouncing
the senate bill as McKinleylsm in a
modified form should bear in mind that
it was impossible for the democratic
maj'.mty to do otherwise than adopt a
compromise measure. Great reforms
are accomplished in a day. Pro
tected has been in existence for thirty
eight years, and it will take time to re
move it."
11.Villi IT Y IS PLEASED
Although tho Tariff Hill us Passed Is
Nbt All That Could ho Dos 1 rod.
Philadelphia, Aug. 15.—Chairman
William F. Harrity, of the democratic
national committee, when asked his
view's as to the passugo of tho tariff
bill, said:
"Under all the circumstances I re
gard the action taken by the house of
representatives as wise and patriotic,
although I do not share in the belief
that the senate would have refused or
otherwise failed to huvo passed a tariff
bill.
"What the country needs, especially
after a protracted business depression,
Is to have tho tariff question settled.
Its settlement will mean a certain and
steady improvement in business. I do
not look for a business boom, but I do
expert generally improved business
conditions. Quite naturally, I expect
that the democratic party will be help
ed by the action taken.
"Whatever helps the country almost
sf necessity benefits the party in power.
You can put me down as very well
satisfied with the outcome, even though
the tariff bill as passed, and which is
almost certain to become a law, Is not
all that could be desired from the dem
ocratic standpoint."

INTENDED RSRN INSULT
The President's Bicycle
Letter to Cov. Waite.
Council Bluffs, la., Aug. 15.—An
answer has Just been received by the
Ganymede Wheel club, of this city,
to the letter sent by Its president to
Gov. Waite, of Colorado, with the mes
sage from President Cleveland carried
by the relay riders. It reads in part
as follows:
Gentlemen:—Your communication of
the tenth Instant was received yester
day In the same dispatch pouch with
the letter of the private secretary of
the president of the United States, I
regret very much that any "unfriend
ly feeling between President Cleveland
and myself" should have inlluenced
him ti cast any discourtesy upon your
league. The letter sent by the private
secretary of the president is type
written, commences "sir" and winds
up "to the governor, Denver, C 01.,"
and whether or not deslgnecl to reflect
upon the League of American Wheel
men, It was no doubt Intended as a
personul Insult to myself. But it was
respectfully answered, because it was
j an oflicial communication and related
to a matter In which I had no per
sonal concern, and for the further
reason that because the president of
the United States should forget In his
oflicial correspondence that he was a
gentleman is no excuse for me to
imitate so bad an example.
| There Is no Just reason why the pres
ident of the United States should en
tertain any unkindly feeling towards
myself. United States troops were
sent Into Colorado without the re
quest of, or notice to, the governor of
the state and without any domestic
disturbance which had oven been
called to the attention of the civil
authorities, county or state.
I wired to President Cleveland pro
testing against his unconstitutional
invasion of the state with United
States troops and respectfully Inquir
ed by what uutliority the United
States marshal and his deputies 1 ad
suspended the writ of habens corpus
in Colorado. To this telegram Pres
ident Cleveland made no response, and
if there is any "unfriendly f< • ling" bi -
tween President Clevoland and myself
It Is doubtless In consequence of this
telegram. But however "unfriendly"
President Cleveland may feel toward
me that fact has nothing to do with
the duty I owe to the people of Col
orado to protect them as far as Is In my
power from any Invasion of their con
stitutional rights.
With thanks for your letter, I arn,
gentlemen, very truly yours,
