lenkable. aud should be 80 adjusted Al not to be-
come pretudcial TO the Industrial Interests Of apv
ciass Or section OF the country, while securing IL
oa1 oat. hcns g5eaaes1s fair competition with foreign
This declaration US it stands is vagus,
contradictory, and unmeaning. The high
ta1if6tes in the convention had inst indn-
ence enough to fasten to the resolution
the words, "while securing to. our home
producers fair competition with foreign
capital and labor Without this surplus.
nge,; the resolution is sound MD correct,
though poorly worded,
As party platform, it would be thou-
sands of votes stronger without, than with,
the absurd tail-pie.e fastened to it.
It is clear, from = reading Of the resolu-
ton, that the preponderating sentiment Of
the convention WIS in favor of the rerenuc
tariff only, and Was opposed to Congress
sional Legislation for tho benefit of one
class at the expense of another; but, in or
der to soften the fall of the newly-elected
Senator, Judge Wright, whose letter of
last January needed cushion of some
sort. the convention foolishlr consented
to stultifv themselves. and ,nisnenrcsent
the interests and sentiments of the masse:;
of the people of Iowa.
