Samuel J. Randall was hunted up for
telk on the future Of the Democratic
party. Referring TO the November cleo
tons Mr.. Randall said, believe the re-
cent Democratic and Reform success
means a declaration by the people al
favor of Greatly reducing expenses, both
in general and local government Such
reductions are easily att1inacle and can be
secured without friction to proper adaia-
istTation. Republican control las led to
extravaganza IN every direction, aad the
people believe thai those IL powerare not
equal to the accomplishment Of such re-
suits. There are many gue2nons vital 10
the prosperity Of the country that must
be met, and among the number none :
more important than the doing aray wl,h
the internal revenue system. As For
myself, ! am in favor Of an absolute and
entire repaaI of ail such taxation. The
Republicans made fatal mistake IN no;
co-onerating with the Democrats Il: the
LAST session ct Congress in securing the
then proposed reduction Of S10,Go0,0 600.
Now the whole system mnst q" air.
Randall then proceeded TO Show bow the

sary to meet its obligations and expenses.

upon the ground of protection simply for
the sake of protection, because ! doubt
the existence of any constitutional war
rant for any such construction, OF grant

my Judgment the question of Free Trade
will not arise practically in this country
durinc our lives so long az We eon'lnne to
raise the revenue by duties On imports.
Therefore me discussion OF that principle
is absolutely waste OF time.
