the most eventful in political sense
that we have seen since the close Of
tho war. The questions which have
enerossed aud divided the public
mind during the past twenty years
are rapidly passing away, and we
find growing up in different parts OF
the country a party called by varl-
GUS names---in California the Iude-
pendent party, in Iowa the Anti
Monopoly party, in Wisconsin the
Reform party, in Illinois the
Farmers Movemeat---having a CON-
mon purpose and inspiration, and
exhibiting q strength which proves
that it answers one Of tho chief de-
mends of the hour. The CHICAGO
TRIBUNE, will give large share
of its attention to this NEW FAN
HESITATION OF PUBLIC SENG2I-
NENT. It holds:
LIST. That the old party organ13a
tions are essentially corrupt and
fraudulent Having no longer any
! principles to carry into effect, they
have become mere buSiness enter.
prises, making E. show Of opposition
to each other, but really sharing in
the proceeds Of profigate. and dis
honest legislation. To suppose that
anv heelthful reform can flow from
the pretended efforts Of these worn-
| out and demoralized partnerships
| ig altogether vain and llusory.
| I'd. THAT the tariff system now in
| vogue is q cunning device to rob tho
| many for the benefit OF the few, end
| that its effect is to cEnso Iarm pro-
| ducts to exchange for about one-haR
| the quantity Of foreign Or ':pro-
tected'' goods they would otherwise
buy.
i Sd, That railroads cannot exact
more than fair rate Of interest on
the capital actually invested in them,
end that when, in addition to this,
thew claim dividends on watered
| stock and fraudulent bonds, the
State may rightfully Interfere for tho
protection OF the people; that unjust
determinations between different
| localities arc in violation of law and
should be prohibited.
9TH. That subsidies or bounties OF
money, land, or public credit, to
railway, steamship, or other corpo-
| rations, are fragrant abuses OF the
| powers Of government, raught with
| the gravest dangers to the people,
and tending to promote corruption,
| extravaganza, specula1o1, anu
| financial disaster
| The general character of THE
| CHICAGO TRIBUNE is too well
established to need recapltulatlon-
t It is always independent and fear-
less in the expression Of its views.
