Mr. WILSON, of Iowa. NewEngland is standing offa little on her dignity. She has a tariff that suits her now. She does not ask this bill. The Gentfrom Ohio [Mr. DEL ANO] has undertaken to speak for the West. He gets down on his knees and begs NewEngland to vote for this tariff, on the ground that it will increase their protection. Sir, it is a most singular spectacle. It is something I never expected to witness in this House. have no doubt that the Gentfrom Ohio will be successful in the appeal which he has made to the NewEngland members, and that this bill will receive 1; eir support. This I presume, will merely be the carrying out of the arrangement which the Gentfrom Ohio tells us has been made between the wool growers and the wool manufacturers. Certain persons residing in the East, in the middle gtates, and in the West, engaged in raising wool constitute the one party. Certain gentlemen in the East who are manufacturing woolen fabrics constitute the other party. NewEngland is now endeavoring to “fly the track” and repudiate the bargain; and the Gentfrom Ohio, on behalfof the other party, insists that this shall not be done. Sir, as a western man, I know nothing of any such bar ain; nor will I be bound by any bargain of that 'ind. Neither will I permit.my voice as a Representative to favor any such bargain. The Gentfrom Ohio has said that heretofore all our tariff laws have been in favor of the East; that the great agricultural interests the wool growing interests and the flax growing interests have never been protected; that the protectionists of the West have always favored tariffs for the benefit of the East, and that now they want a share of protection. Well. sir, I propose now to submit a proosition (and I hope that the Gentfrom Ohio has made no bargain which will prevent him from voting for it) which will afford the members from the West an opportunity to vote in favor of a western measure without disturbing the protection which the East now has. I propose to move, sir, that this bill shall be recommitted to the ComWays&Means with instructions to report a bill which shall embody the 1st section of the present bill. This is the section which will protect the great wool growing interests for which the Gentfrom Ohio so eloquently pleaded. It is the section which will place the great wool growing interests within the circle of the protected interests, and will enable them to have a voice in any future readjustment of the tariff. Thus the interest, the protection of which appears to be the paramount desire of the Gentfrom Ohio, will be protected. My motion proposes, in the next place, that the 6th section of the present bili, the section in relation to liquors and ci ars, shall be included in the bill to be frame by the committee. Next, that the 12th section of the bill as originally reported a section which protects avrictiltura interests shall be em liraced in the new bill. Next, that the committee shall embody in the bill to he reported by them the reduced duties upon tea and coffee, as already determined upon by the House. Next, that the duty on railroad iron shall be reduced to 70 cents per 100 pounds, a reduction which many (if the iron men have told me, within the last few days, they are willing shall be made. Again, that the committee shall embody in the new bill the revisions of the present bill in relation to finseed, fiaxseed iiempseed, ra eseed, and oils manufactured therefrom. his is a protection to another of the great interests for which the Gentfrom Ohio pleaded. Next, I propose by my motion that the committee shall reduce the other duties embraced in the bill to a standard not higher than the actual necessities of the interests to be affected thereby require, not exceeding, in any case, 25%. above the rates now fixed by law; administrative portions of the bill asleathveinygltahvee already been determined upon by the ComWhole, as they are now pending in the House. I have thus stated the proposition which I design to submit. I trust that the members from the West will vote for it. An ap eal has been made to them in behalf of this bill by the Gentfrom Ohio, who admits that the bill is full of most objectionable features. He has urged them to vote for the bill for the purpose of securing the benefits it provides for t as rent interests of the agricultural portions of the country. I ask the members of the West to vote for this proposition, because it will secure protection for those interests, without encum iiering the measure with the other provisions which are denounced almost all over the House as ini uitous, imposing duties exorbitantly high. (why, sir, so far as regards the arrangement which, as it is said, has been made between the wool growers and the wool manufacturers, I find that the benefit to be derived by the wool growing interests is entirely counterbalanced and neutralized by the other feat ures of the bill. After an increased duty has been put upon wool, an increased duty is placed upon woolen manufactures more than equal to that placed upon wool, it being for gotten in the mean time that by the internalrevenue bill which we have passed we have relieved the woolen manufacturers, as well as all other manufacturers, of a part of the internal taxation which they have hitherto paid. What will be the result of this? IVool grown in Iowa cannot be transported to Bostop as cheaply as South American wool can be transported there. The eastern manufacturer has in this bill more than a corresponding advan tage as compared with the wool grower. The result. will he that the manufacturer of woolen fabrics will be able to purchase just as much foreign wool as he now purchases. You Wlll not, dry the passage of this bill, relieve the American wool grower from the injurious effect of the competition of the foreign wool. In this respect you leave him in the same position in which he is at present.
