Washington, July 20. Snatk.
Mr. Pngh waiving for tho present his
notice that he would call up the Payne
election case, the Senate at 11.4o re
sumed the consideration of the oleomar
garine bill, and was addressed by Mr.
Brown in opposition to the bill. It was
clear to his mind, he said, that the gov
ernment had no right to collect more
revenue than was necessary for the ef
ficient and economical administration of
the governmcnt.This bill proposed to add
another class to those properly mado sub'
ject to the internal revenue system. Ho
would vote on all proper occasions to
repeal toe internal revenue system in
whole or (if that could not be done) in
part. He favored tariff legislation to
raiso the necessary revenue, and so to
adjust it as to protect American labor
and favor American industry by dis
criminating against foreign products
This bill was one not to protect ihe far
mers as a class, but to protect a small
class of farmers at tho expense of the
vast' number of farmers. He would
like to see legislation by the several
States compelling vendors of oleomar
garine to label the article, but he was
not willing to tax a wholesome article
of food 'out of existence because it might
be sometimes sold for a dinerent article
of food.
Mr. 11 aw ley spoke in support of the
bill.
Mr. Call argued against the bill. He
opposejj it as inexpedient because its
policy interfered with the right and ex
elusive power of the authority of the
States; because it destroyed (and was
iij tended to destroy) a particular in-
ausjry ana was intended to nave no
other effect.
Mr. hivarts argued in favor of the
bill.
Mr. Ingalls addressed the Senate.
He said that towards the close of the
debate yesterday, exasperated by per
sonal allusions intended to be offensive,
he had made some observations which
on reflection, he was persuaded, bad
on any package, denoting a less amount
of tax than that required by law, shall
be fined for oach offense not more than
$1,000, and be imprisoned not more
thin two years." i
Mr. Miller moved that the Senate in
sist on its amendments to the bill, and
ask the House for a conference This
was agreed to. i
Mr, Allison called up the sundry civil
appropriation bill. Mr. Pugh moved
that the bill be lata aside temporarily.
and that the report on i the
Payne election case be taken : up.
Objection was made to Mr. Pdgh's
proposition and after some discussion
Mr. Hoar remarked that. u least six
of tho nine members of the committee
desired to address the Senate. He in in
gested that tho three report. iust vd uf

For four hours this fair 'creature had
