The Great Question.

New York Star.
Henry Watterson is reported as
saying that the democracy must tie to
the tarif-for-revenue.only plank In
1884, even though 1t should prove to
be q milestone around the neck of the
party to sink under that load than to
sail into port with another banner.
But, fortunately for the democracy,
Mr.. Henry Watterson is fast getting
to be regarded az a crank, and his de-
l%iverances have lorg ceased to be re.
garded as anything but the irresponai.
BILE outgivings of q Sensational free
lance, AS all true democrats believe
In revising the tariff ss fast and far as
practicable, 81 as to lesson the bur-
dens of the people, to emove re-
strictions on Industry and commerce
without disturbing the business of the
country, there is no sense In making a
fuss about 1t. The people of the
United States have other subjects of
vastly greater Importance to attend to
than an issue which han become OF
secondary interest.
Most Of the great controversies and
questions which once agitated the
country and divided parties, have been
virtually settled by the changes Of
half 9 century and the growth of pub.
lie opinion. But the fundamental
questions of principle have not beer
settled and remain as important and
vital as ever. And 1t Is the new sp,

Piles which create the real issues of our
politics. Democracy means the gov.

members of his family Directing to that
city on account of the climate, which
