CONGRESSMAN Mckinley, of the Stark
county district, had no idea of being
called upon to act as chairman of the
Chicago tariff convention, but he pre-
sided over that body in manner that
added new lauTels to his high reputa-
tiOn. His speech on accepting the chair
was short and to the point, exactly
suited to convention of business men
such as he was addressing. His remarks
on the tariff were sound, we'll suited to
the convention, and expressive of the
interests of the people of his district as
we'll as his State. He is one of the
strongest supporters of protection in the
country. He said he believed in pro-
lection for the sake of protection, and,
reversing the old Democratic idea of a
tariff for revenue with incidental pro-
tectiOn," he would have tariff for pro-
lection with entalreyenue." "--Cleve-
land Leader.
That is, Mr.. Mckinley would plunder
the people to bestOw millions in bOun-
ties upon a favored few. His "prOtec-
tiOn" of the few is robbery of the many.
He believes in robbery for the sake OF
plunder.
