of the church in the cause of Mis- i

"Why, certainly. If the Ifemld j
had room for them I could mention a
dozen. To go no further than the;
basis of Mr. Randall's argument, let
me call vour attention to his pretence
that he voted against tariff reform hecause
he could net <n t the kind of re
form he wanted, when the fact, was
that he voted thrice against the con
sidoration of the subject at all and in
any form, refusing to have it come
before (ho I louse, where, of course,
he laid his constitutional ri^ht to propose
whatever he pleased. Aoaiu,
ho insists that the spirit and letter, as
he puts it, of the platform on which
Mr. Cleveland was elected must be
adhered to, and then claims thai in
the making of that platform the free
traders, as he calls the men who represented
seven-eighths of the Convention
were beaten and routed.
Me has oven the temirity to sav that
they made at the time confessio i of
their complete disconfiture. If Mr.
Randall were a man of clear sense of
voracious respotisibili y he would not
liavc tho hardihood to make any such
assertion. It is distinctly untrue.
Hn the committee which inado the
platform at ('liicaoo Mr. Randall's
immediate representative was the
late Mr. M 'coin llav. < >n every
question' lirst and last, relating to
the tariff, Mr. Ilewitt, Mr. Morrison,
and myself free. traders, as Mr.
Randall insists on describing/ us
voted with the majority on one side,
and Mr. Nay, Mr. Randall's double I
on the other side and with the minority.
And in the final selection by
the committee of a chairman to report
the platform, which Mr. Morrison,
Mr. Ilewitt and their revenue
reform colleagues had made, Mr.
Morrison was chosen over Mr. I lay.
This, after the eoinm'ttee had been
adroitlv packed in advance to secure
the defeat of the free traders, now
falsely and absurdly claimed by Mr.
Randall. IJu: enough of this; Mr.
Randall is not worth it.''

W\siii noton, July 21. The

one being that I>y either of them convict

throughout the I nited States or in th

he no complaints as to the effects of
convict labor upon the rates of wa- ]

in price or in quantity. The con- "

of prison ollicors. None of the Tobjections
