by sdy.iig 'he days of
Horace It h’ad bee.. ff *p:i.n'-y end
told In prose than at Is ^ ' ito die
for one's oountry. Panegyrics hud been
pronounced on those w-no died for the.r
country; monuments had been erected
to them and -their memory held sacred;
l.iey had never ye. heard It said or
sung by anybody that It was sweet to
be taxed for one's country. (Laughter.)
It seems to be a duty which men felt
at liberty to evade If possible. Men
w )uli go to war at their country's
mill and risk and sacrifice their lives,
out when It came to meet their duty
laid obligations of taxation 'they and
their prosperity were ready to hide
away. Tins question was pun/.y a
question of taxation. There was a cer
tain amount of money to be roalized
for the support of 'the naxtonol gov
ernment, and the question was Where
and how that money wa* jo *>• raised.
The senator from Ohio (dhennan) said:
"Put the ourden on sugar." The sena
tors from New England said: “Put it
ou manufactured goods," and 'the sen
ators from Now York aid: "Put It on
the collars and cuds that tne poor peo
ple wear.” (Laughter.) ills Idea was
that -Imposing the burdens, or taxation,
the heaviest portions on those beatable
to bear them and the lightest on those
leas; able to bear them.
Referring to Mr. Hill's prediction
that -the passage of an income tax
would sound toe deaxh knell ut she
Democratic party. Mr. Jarvis said: "If
tne Democratic party has no higher
mission -than to -bow at she footstool
♦mVi wor*hin »r i*h« shrine cf she ac
cumulated wealth of Uie oountry the
sooner li dies me beocer. (Applause in

means* wnlle it pruieota prosperity, to
go Into Uie highway* and byways to
take in lu _grt\u arms the laboring

and better life. I. for one, thank God
mat the Democratic panty u today in
the hands of (hose who have the
courage :to 'take some of the burdens
from the people and put them on the
accumulated wealth of fctoe country.'
Inw.cxul of this bill sounding the deatn
knell It Is the flnft step onward to a
higher prosperity and a more glorious
career for ‘the Democratic party. And,
if it will only have the courage to move
forward on the lines Uiait have been
•eleo.ed, I believe that iiurtoad of our
Republican friends m 1897 seeing a
Republican president inaugurated the
standard of Democracy will toe ad
vanced still higher and our'banner win
again float over the senate, house of
representaidves and the wbke house.
(Applause from the galleries.)
It was 5:60 o'clock waen Mr. Jarvis
resumed his seat. Immediately Mr.
Hui took the floor and suggested that
as he desired to reply at some length
me seriate should now adjourn.
Mr. Harris, ln parliamentary charge
of the bHU spoke of the Artie progress
made today and of the gre*t anxiety
of the country to know what the Im
port dtroles were to be, and jitfbfted on
a longer session.
Thereupon Mr. Chandler suggested
the absence of a quorum, tout the roll

Charleston, June 22.—The fifth of the
series of campaign meetings was held at
Cam !< u t^luy. The crowd was small
and reasonably well behaved. The In
terest of the campaign centres in the
senatorial race, Senator Butler and Gov.
ernor Tillman being the chief attractions
of the circus.
today, Tillman haft; the
opening and Butler the close. Tillman
very tame and Sunday-school-like in
lib bit! "i.i . remarks, btft u irmad up
Jt went along. He spoke of his un
it e xperience in this campaign, and
protest-d against the policy of conducting
meetings on the line of personal
abuse* Speaking of'the way he had re
sponded at Lancaster to the attack made
upon him by Senator Butler, he said:
“When I got to Lancaster, I {railed
off his *»ilrt and lifted the hide nnd put
some salt and pepper under it. He may
have some more pepper, and I’ll give
him all the time he wants, as I will only
take twenty minutes. Butler’s charges
that I am a liar and a thief nnd a coward
do no g »od. M He was willing to discuss
a public iMue, If permitted to do or.
If it were preferred (ha» : . il l j.
roi-ks. he promised to pitch two rocks
to Butler's one. There was nothing to
hide ln tils record. His private Ufo was
open to • most careful scrutiny, lie bad
lived f r th" 1.1 t live (. ,rs im l*u -i .<1
clum Ha* t. and If anything could have
been fou'.l against him. it would have
been dia-ov*red by thin time.
Here theft was a vigorous outburst of
anninuM fnr Governor Tillman, and in
that detectives had been sent to Washing
ton to hunt up his record and play the
spy on him, but that they had come back
with Angers on their mouths.
Gen. Butler made a determined attack
on the dispensary, characterizing It as a
political machine built up ln Tillman's
Interests, and said that It had not been
conducted according to law, and generally
riddled it with holes. Hjs «pe«ch made
a lasting impression and was received
with enthusiasm by his followers, of
whom there were many ln the crowd.
The day passed off without trouble. The
meeting tomorrow will be held at Sumter.
TRADE CONDITIONS.
The Ending of the Strike Ilaa Given
Encouragement to Business.
New York, June 21—Bradstreet’s to
morrow will aay: There are Indications
of a moderate Improvement In various
lines and enough instances to render
the fact of some nignlfleiioce. A nota
bly favourable feature is the practical
ending of the coke and coal strikes, to
gother with those related Industries
which will be put to work at once, oi
soon, more than 260.000 men, there are
silos by jobbers In staple lines for fu
ture delivery where nothing save a
hand to mouth business has been re
ported for weeks. *
At points tributary to Kansas City
and St. Louis grain harvesting la under
full headway; the condition of the
wheat Is excellent and the demand fot
money to move the market la abund
ant. Western steel works recently
started report a dlapostlon by capital
ists and others to psh new enterprises.
The reverse of the picture contains
uuiiiinK -worse than has been previously
reported, the more familiar features
being delayed and indifferent tariff leg*
ialaition. resulting in a stagnation of
business, continued hand to mouth
dealings by jobbers In all portions of
the country, approach of the semi-an
nual f.tock taking period and uneasiness
in Florida nnd portions of Louisiana,
due to droughts. Nothing Indicating in
creased demands for staple goods or ;i
tendency to anticipate wants is report
ed from any New England city. Com
paratively large shipments of shoes

ments South based on cut freight rates.
Shbe factories at Philadelphia on the
other hand arc largely idle. Cotton nnd

reported, the former accumulating
stocks and the latter orders. Baltimore
merchants report the South withhold
ing orders m’ore than previously.
At the South there Is rather more en
couragement in trade circles. At Nash- I
ville the prospects for fall trade are
good, rains having helped the crops In
that vicinity; and although business In
quiet nt Savannah the demand for na
val stores remains active. Some im
provement In distribution bf merchan

any unfavorable effects of the drought

"There ore some senators," said Mr.
