I If the Democratic party with its rec- ord of more than Hfty years lu the ad- ministration of the government, and its frank and constant declaration of made agaius tho message. Did it not rather seem that those who cavilled with Ur. Cleveland and denounced his views were such as had predetermined a quarrel, and who would not approve the Declaration of Independence if it etiuie from his hands.

James went to Walerville principles, was to be charted with the fully of free trade every time an at- tempt was made to modify the tariff, the people would very soon and olearly find out that such assaulis wero only made to divert public attention from the ditch of defeat together. A per-the evil designs and schemes of plunder tistent and viuleut effort was being Senator Voorlicci Reply to Senator Sherman't Address. He Denounces the Republicans for Attempting to Misconstrue the President's Message Into a Free Trade Declaration. Tht Democratic Party the Wartlnimu'i Party end the Avtwad Protector of the Laborer's Interest.

Senator Voorhees made a speech In the Senate, a few days ago, in support of the position of President Cleveland on the tariff question. He said "The subject of taxation was as old as the government itself, and yet it was a fresh and full of interest to-day te the laboring masses of mankind as ever at any former period of the world's history. The contraction of the vol lime of currency had always been a pol Icy marked by disastar and suffering, and accursed by every friend of th general welfare of the conntry. But when that abominable policy was still further aided and executed by snatch' ing, as it were, the money of the peo ple from their very hands, at the rate of tea million! a month, without necct ity, excuse or palliotion. every honest mind had to resist against such wanton robbery.

It wai a crime against every i home, every fireside, and every living man and woman in the Jmtcd Slates. y'Vt It was a crime national in its pro- restoring the immense surplus to cir- ulalion nnd of affording the relief ceded. As a further remedy, and m-eed as the greatest and most potent, le American people would be best pleased to see the public debt dimin-ished and if tne authority to purchase muds not yet due was not to be feund existing law. Congress should prou plly supply tho defect. There was no bondage so cruel as that of debt, and when the last irov- rnnielit bond was paid and the last vestige of the National debt wiped out here would be a jubilee year besides whose glories all other jubilees and enlennlal years would grow pale and nsignificant.

He had faith in its com ing, because the administration had at ast been placed upon sound principles and was being carried on by honest and able bands. The American people would see to it that no back wai step should be taken for the future." Auction Male.

a ledum 1 1 lo it good nt Such political leaders might have their uses, but in the present instance it required no grit of prophecy to fore- tec that "as blind leaders of the blind" thty and their followers would roll in made by those who managed and was the opposition to the preseut adminis tration to convince the public mind that the President was unfriendly to labor interests and labor organizations, and that the reduction of taxes would be so powerfully enforced as to prove hurtful to the worklnginan, and especially wage workers employed in manufac turing industries. He (Voorhees) might pause to ask the meaning of the present condition of tho wngo workers in many of the most extensive mnnu factoring regions. Why, under the present high tariff, were they engaged in constant strikes and severe strug gles with their employers? He (Voorhees) would ge far to pro tect tne American laborer in every respeet, and to comfort his daily life with generous laws. His heart was full of appreciative sympathy fer the wnrkingman and his household at they gathered around their troubled fireside, often in penury, sometimes in actua want, and never in ease or affluence. Rut be had never yet conceived it to be a remedy or his privation and anxieties to increase the tax on his blankets an bed-clothing, or on his salt and mea gre tableware.

The President bad ox pressed his solicitude for the welfare of the American laborer, and had poin ted out the vigilant care which hit in terests should receive in the treatment of the tariff After quoting a sentence from the message in Ibis connection, in said he did so in order to present complete refutation (in a condense form) of the reckless and sometimes malicious misrepresentations wi which the President position had a ready been assailed, and which would continue for at lest the next te months. In his judgement, however, the American people would have but small difficulty, as toon as the presen Improvised commotion had subsided In determining that the President premises, hit arguments and his con clussons were alike impregnable allked defied assault. Senator Voorhees also quoted from the Republican platform of 1884 where in It pledged itself to "correct the ir regularities of the tariff and to reduce the surplus," and be said that was a plain, clear admission, made three and one half years ago, that the work of the Tariff Commission had been poorly done and called for correction, and the pledge had never yet by one word, one vote, one ttep, or the lifting of one linger, been attempted to be carried out this day. On the contrary the Republican leaden had not only done nothing themseUes to remedy their own confessed wrong doing, but had witb the whole weight of their organization hindered the efforts of everybody else. It now, after this long cVay, the leaders of the Republican organization in Congress and elsewhere, assumed tne attitude of the tariff reformers, it could only be under tactics that could avail them no longer.

At had been said of the charge of the Light Hri-gade at Iialaklava, "It is magnillicent but it it nut war." So many thoughtful observers of the tremendous finaucial power and endurance of the American people might exclaim, "It it glorious but it is not statemanship." It wai glorious to the manhood and resources of the Republic but in giving the orders in shaping the pollcv by which the American people had been so trained, taxed anil bitterly al: the wor'd knew that a blunder equivalent to crime had bee committed and had been stubbornly persisted Hut the question still recurred in Its practical way to the disposal of the results of this bluiiili.Tin policy He turned from tho proposition! for a lurcer arnir nmJ urn ami I defences, us luuiedv for tl, surplus, to uiyiu natural necessity and practicable methods for Its ue. A generous pension roll, with all arrearages paid, liberal appropriations for the improvement of rivers mid harbors, the construction of puMic buildings wherever needed for tho public tsrvicH, were ul tvuiuu iiirv TT I mo ilD i tt i could not believe, however, that the sagacious and patriotic business men of the country who controlled manu facturing industries would permit themselves, for political purposes, to be put in an attitude of nnjust, selfish overweening avarice and of unfairness toward the groat mass of their countrymen. 1 Proceeding to discuss the message of the President, he sM that it was a pleasure to him to declare that this remarkable State paper was true to the principles of the Domonratie party, from its foundation by Jefferson eighty seven years ago to the present day, and then the laboring and the business classes of the country were due to the Executive for soiling upon that vital issue with the grasp of a strong, honest man, and for presenting it to his countrymen in such a shape and light that it would never disappear until the wrongs therein presented were exposed and redressed and the outrages of overtaxation ceased. lu the present age of swollen pretenses, of shallow aristocracy and gilded vulgarity, the splendid utterances of the President's message fell upon the minds of the ptople as a token, as a promise of relief, reform and redemption from one who has neyer broken a pledge or forgotten a public duty. The President had declared for the lowly and oppressed.

Since the matchless and immortal inaugural of Jefferson on the 14th day of March, 1801, no communication had ever emanated from the Chief Magistrate of this government more able, more elevated in statesman ship, more h.uuan and benevolent in its purposes, or more conduciee to the general welfare and good government thau the message under consideration Coming down to the practical ones tion of taxation, he was aware, he said, that there were many objections to in ternal taxes, but no grounds far differ ent from a desire to perpetuate enor mous and unjust tariff taxes on the necessities of life. He appreciated the fact that for many years, and especially in several States, the whole system had been used as a powerful instrument of partisan political warfare, and had been rendered odious to every free minded ciliien. He was also often reminded that it was a war tax, and that it should pass away la time of peace. All these opinions had their weight with him. Rut, while heavy taxee which had been laid' by a war tariff on every article entering into the wants and necessities of the people were not reduced at all, he submitted that the work of reform and reduction should be pursued in that field, and the internal revenue system loft to stand yet a while, suDject to certain modifications.

As to tobacco, he iiiggested that the tax on cigars and snuff (producing might be retained and the remainder -producing $17, 000, (XXI abolished. Hut this, however, was a feature of detail, and perhaps a feature of promise. The great bulk of abnte-meat in the present total unnecessary taxation of tht people would have to take place in a careful and prudent re-View of thetarifT, and we would hare to leave to the future what might seem the best means and arrangements by which to attain the end. As a choice between reducing the Internal revenue or tarifl'taxee, ha would have to leave to the future what might seem the best means and arrangements by which to attain that ent. As a choice between reducing the Internal revenue or tariff taxes, he would labor to cheapen woolens, linens, cotton fabrics, suit, lumber, coal, iron, steel and other staple commodities, rather than such articles as as were indulged in from acquired habits or luxurious modes of living.

After quoting some sentences from the President's message. Senator Voor hees asked whether it Was from such wise, conservative statements guarding the Interest of American manufacturers on the one hand, while seeking to relievo the people on the other -that thu charges of free trade" wen a "portions, gigantio in its strength, oni-' nipresent in its visitations, and brutal in its rapacity, And yet, the day before the recess, the Senator from Colorado (Teller) bad sneered at the idea of the surplus being of any consequence-and tho Senator from Ohio (Sherman) had also declared (not by cable from Paris, but on the floor of the Senate) that it was fortunate fer the country that there was a surplui of fifty-five million! in the Treasury. It would be for that Senatoi, if he should become the Republican candidate for the Presidency next summer, to explain to the people why it was fortunate that their money was gathered into the Treasury in excess of all the uses, prescriptions nd wants of the Government, instead of femainliig in the pockets of the people. There was in the Republican press and among Republican politicians a determined, persistent and brazen campaign of mendacity on this subject, and it would continue in the councils and field work of the Republican party, day by day, morning, noon and night, until the frosts of next November come to wither and blast alike, their falsehoods and their heresy. lie denied that the President had departed one jot or title from the declaration of the last Democratic platform on the subject of taxation.

That declaratiou had been bold, explicit and peremptory. It was made in a few pluin, stiong words, the meaning of which it was impossible to prevert of misunderstanding. Inciden ll tal protection to homo manufacturers bad always been tho policy of the Democratic party. It was recegnlzed in the last Democratiu national platform. He rejoiced in everg element of American succoss.

Ha was proud of the inventive genius of tho country, and of Its vast establishments, whero sailled labor abounded. He looked with delight on the cotton mills, the coal mines the blast furnaces anil rolling mills of the South, as Well a on those of New England, Pennsylvania nnd many Western States. He would encourage them in their gigantlo career of development and usefulness; ami he held that the policy of the Democratic' party hnd been ul. ways ample for their prosperity und DroL'rugri. Tint! It-ns llui cy for American manufacturers themselves.

If it onco were clearly under-etood that the manufacturers as class demanded that they bo enriched by means of fraudulent taxes; that they accept tho guidance of the loaders of tho republican party anil Join in their praise, then, indeed, nciilx would cu.
