Mr. I ILSON. There is an increased duty on all articles manufactured from wool, but the increase on some of them is less than the increase on the wools out of which they are manufactured. There is one interest that has sprung up during the past few years that will be largel benefited by the passage of this bill; I mean t ie worsted interest. Eight or ten million dollars have been investe in the manufacture of worsteds, making an annual product of 18 or 20 millions.‘ The wools are imported from Canada, and under the reciprocity treaty came in duty free. These wools now pay a duty, and the worsted interest is suffering greatly by the duty imposed upon the Cana dian wools. This interest ought to be relieved, and I wish we coflld secure such legislation as would afford immediate relief. I said the other day, Mr. President, in reply to the remarks of the Senfrom Indiana, that this tariff had a western origin. Ia uin repeat that this tariff originated, not in Iew England, but in the Northwest. It came from the wool growers west of the Alleghanies, who have a deeper interest in its passage than the people of any other section of the country. I do not 0 pose the passage of the bill now because it bad a western rather than an eastern origin. What I objected to the other day an what I object to now is that NewEngland should be singled out and charged “451 the sin of the paternity of this measure. While the representatives of Massachusetts, and of NewEngland have voted on general principles for this bill, they have so voted with a great deal of hesitation, doubt, and reluctance. ‘hey saw what was clear to the comprehension of gentlemen of ordinary intelligence, that this measure imposed increased duties upon raw material, increased largely the cost of production, and subjected the manufacturing and me hanical interests of their section to the censure and hostility of those who spare no occasion to manifest their hostility to that section of our country. I am not among those who believe that the lasting interests of the country will suffer by allowing this proposed revision of the tariff to be carefully examined by commissioning the ComFinance, in whom we have confidence, and in whom the country has great confidence, to bestow upon this measure the time required to make as perfect a measure as the with of man can devise. Believing that it will be for the lasting interests of all sectionsof the country that this new tariff bill shall be wisely framed, I shall vote for the motion made b the Senfrom Iowa, to instruct the Finance committee to report the bill at the beginning of the next session of Congress. I hope then to see reported a tariff for revenue, with incidental protection, in which the conflicting and varied industries of the people'will be so adjusted and harmonized that it will receivethe vote of congress and the approval of the public judgment, and remain for years an evidence of the intelligence and integrity of the 2 Houses of Congress.
