Free Trade POltcy-A Word to the



The Free Trade journals are advocating a
reduction OF the tariff of '46 The reason they
assign for this is the fact there is now a sur
plus Of upwards of thirty millions in the Treas
ury. 1t accumulated mostly under a Wing
Administration, and how long it " i'll remain
there under Democt alic Administration ma,
admit of a diversity of opinion. This remains
to be seen yet lfthere is any of the thirty mil
lions IN the Treasury twelve months heEce We
shall be most agreabIy disappointed. Oar Free
Trade journals seem to loose sight of the i'm
portant fact that this surplus was left in the
Treasury by Wing Administration, and thai
such state OF things never occurs under De-
nocranc Administration. 1t might be well
nough TO suggest to them mol to go in o strong
Tor Free Trade until they see how Uncle Sam :
bill foots up under the present dynasty. The
experience we have heretofore had under De
mocratc rule does not give fl altering indica
tions, by any means, that the Government vii
have more than enough for the next four wears
To pay its way-if that. Until his question is
settled, We very respectfully suggest TO them
the propriey of being cautious how they advo-
cate the abolition the reduction of import
duties. 1t may save them the alternative OF
having to resort to direct tanat,on for "rasinp
