and that, T suppose, because the Democratic
party In adopting q platform declared, IN un-
cQuivocal terms and In excellentSaxons In favor
of tariff for revenue ouly: that Is to say. to
exclude the idea Of protection, directly or ndi-
reclly. squarcly or Incidentally. The tariff that
that party would enact is to be tariff for rev.
enue only. Now, MY friends, there never be-
| fore has been declaration by either OF. the
| great parties Of this country In National Con-
vention directly hostile to the protective prlnci-

| gone has been to say that 1t was In favor OF a
tariff for revenue With incidental protection; but

| grander than those Of any other nation,
| when Chicago has come to be q great
manufacturing city, when Illinois has come to
| be great manufacturing State, ranking only, I
think, rs. third lin the Nation for its iron and
| steel productions where millions Ut men are
engaged In earning by their labor liberal wages
| and providing well for the maintenance Of their
