WHAT DEMOCRACY STANDS FOR.
Congroaaman Hill Maitoa Speech in the
Houlo in Washington.
WASHINGTON, li‘eb, 22.-—Last week
afternoon Congressman Hill of Con-
necticut made one of the‘speechcs of
the session in the. House on the tariil‘
policies of the Republican party and
the difference between the North
attd the South. his theme being. "Witnt
Democracy Now Stands For."
in the. main his remarks were in
reply to remarks made at different
timesby Congressman John Sharp
Williams, the Democratic leader of the
House. which Mr. lllll has treasured
up for'the purpose of refuting the state
ments made at a suitable time.
Among his colleagues on the same
side of the chamber Mr. liill's address
elicited burst lifter burst of applause
as he made points that were at once
brilliant and incisive, while on lllt‘
other side of the chamber the Demo
crats were compelled to listen in re-
spectful admiration of the Connectl
cut man‘s eloquence.
At the. conclusion of Mr. Hill's re-
marks Mr. Williams replied to him.
saying among otltel things that the
pebple of his Staie were better off
than those of Mr. Hill's State there
being ilo millionaires there and no
paupers.
Said Mr. Hill in part:
“it is not one of the pleasant fea-
tures of Congressional life. to be con:
pclled to listen from day to day as we
have done. for the past few weeks. to
the bitter denunciations of the Repub-
lican Party and its policies, even
though uttered bv the gifted leader of
It reformed and expected Democracy.
it is not a positive. satisfaction to have
it driven into our full minds over and
over again. that a fiscal policy adopted
by every civilised nation bttt. one. and
a very live subject of debate just now
by that one. is a system of robber)
of the many for the hot'housing of the
few.
“it remains for the. gentleman from
Mississippi_ himself the finished
product of heredity and environment.
to attempt to tttrn this nation back It
century and again make it an exporter
of natural products only ‘to dig. and
delve. and plow; for Europe it is well
for tlIth~99ttntry to know and to know
clearly It definitely, 'whut Democ-
racy no stands for.’ But first let
me say to him that when he talks of
the men of Massachusetts and Con-
necticut coming before Congress
crawling upon their stomachs. with
their tongues banging ottt. licking up
the dust’ and begging for favors, that
he 11 . only shows himself an in
ludici us patty leader. but he forgets
the histoty of his country.

“Gentlemen of the minority. what
does Democracy now stand for and
on what issues will you' make your
light for the control of this House in
the next campaign?
"The Representative from the
Eighth District of Mississippi, distinct-
ly stating that he speaks only for him-
self. relegatea the silver question to
the rear. btit still holds to the front the
far more dangerous heresy of flat Gov-
ernment paper in lieu of national bank
note issues.
‘;0vor against the gentleman from
Mississippi 1 put William J. Bryan
with ii..358 133 Democratic votes for
the-Presidency behind him. and hiera-
cent statement that the Kansas City
platform. was sound in every plank
and the first. act of the next Demo
cratlc Convention should be to real-
firm into its entirety.‘
"But there is one subject upon
which the Democratic position, accord.
ing to the chosen leader of the partt‘
in this House. is clear and explicit.
and maths the tariff question.
“I quote:
“‘Aa to the tariff the Democratic
Party stands for the principle that
protectionism is a system of taxation.
whereby many are robbed that a few
may be hot—housed by Legislation into
artificial prosperity. The ' ultimate
goal of Democratic striving is tariff
for rayonua only: The general princi-
ple that protectionism is wrong, mor-
ally wnong. a proatitutiun of Govern
meat to private ends. should never
be flirtation; the goal ought not to be
lost sight of. ~
"There is no uncertainty about this.
it in like the man who uttered it brave,
courageous. strung.
"Let me say to the gentleman from
lliaaiaaippi. however that neither the
manufacturers nor workingmen of Con-
nacticat are ready for a lingering death
by alow Will".
"With the definite knowledge of tho
and nought under your control. we
would proh- to have the method of
obtaining it, abort. sharp and decisive.
