& NJ On The 27ih day of.Tune. 1916, Mr.. PoLLocK,
the present Whig nominee Cor Governor Of Pennsyi-
xania, made speech 10 Congress against the Tariff
Of 1916, from which we extract the following para

1916, for the rsf fiscal year after its enactment IN
CREASED the revenue five millions torty-lour thou

doctrines OF free trade upon the Country, DIRECT

wonder our opponents have abandoned all their old
issues, and covered themselves under the mantle OF
conbfaatiou, with such Prophet as Mr.

An honest temperance advocate will not de-
sire that such bill will become d law. In
the cities Of Philadelphia and Pntsburg, and in
all the large towns of the Commonwealth, there
would be established, under the provisions of
the above act, more dogserles than ever before
existed For while it would drive the present
venders Of such liquors TO the Courts of Quar-
ter Sessions for license, the hundreds Of little
groceries and small stores would be licensed by
the county Treasurers, and these would be in
addition to those already in existence. If the
present temperance movement is founded upon
such false premises, then, we think, it were
well TO let things be as they are. But if il be a
good movement, designed to reform society and
drive vice from the land, laws should be enact
ed in fnrtherance of the project, which are the
result of deliberation, judgment and thought,
and not such as spring from that miserable dis
position which some men have, to make reform
movements cnure TO the benefit of political par
