I say. give the American cow a fair chance. She has been the faithful servant of man. She landed with our ancestors at Plymouth Rock . and. tied behind the old weatherbeaten emigrant wagon. she has marched. with the household goods of the pioneers who have taken possession of this continent. from ocean to ocean. She has increased and multiplied and replenished the earth. until today the industries which she has made possible contribute annuallyto the wealth of the world more money than the great combinations of modern capitalmore than iron and steel. more than lumber and coal. more than cotton and wheat. more than all the looms of New England. more than all the mysterious riches of gold and of silver. Yet there are men in this House whom I have heard today sneering at this bill who spend most of their time trying to get protection for some insignificant local enterprise or "talking through their hats" in the silver debate.
