Issues are not made by politicians to
be offered to the people at their pleas
ure in order that they may serve the
objects of party managers. Not at all.
Politicians may exert all influence upon
existing issues, but the questions them
selves must first exist FROM the necessi
ties of the people. Hence the
would.be political manipulator who
desires for party purposes to ignore q
question which is of deep interest to
the people commits folly. If he per-
suades his party to follow him, it COM
mits folly. There is nothing more con-
temptiblc in public affairs than coward
Ice. Bold pursuit of an object half way
achieves it. In the campaign of 1876
the democratic platform said, "Reform
is necessary in the sum and mode
of federal taxation, to the end that cap
ital may be set free from distrust,
and labor lightly burdened. We
denounce the present tariff, levied
upon nearly 1000 artic 'es, as master
piece of injustice, inequality and false
pretense. 1t yields dwindling not a
yearly rising revenue. 1t has impov
erlshed many industries to subsidize a
few. It prohibits imports that might
purchase the products of American
labor. It has degraded American COM
merce from the first to all inferior rank
on the high seas. 1t has cut down the
sales of American manufactures at
home and abroad, and depleted the re-
turns of American agriculture-an in
dustry followed by half our people. It
costs the people five times more than it
produces to the treasury, obstructs the
process of production, and wastes the
fruits Of labor. 1t promotes fraud,
fosters smuggling, enriches dishonest
officials, and bankrupts honest mer-
chants. We demand that all custom
house taxation shall be only for reve-
nue." In 1880, mo less decisively though
more tersely, the platform reiterated,
ga tariff for revenue only" Upon
these platforms the party went to the
people, and If all honest count could have
been had, carried popular majority in
both elections. Upon these platforms
it went to the country in the election
of 1882, more clearly than ever before,
and carried the popular branch of the
national legislature by all overwhelm-
ing maj .,rity, and ! ct there are croak-
ers, afraid of their shadow, who would
have US, in lSS4,give the lie to our true
faith and do bait g with fraud in our
mouth and deceit in our heart. Out
upon such nonsense; if it is not worse!
Let us go to the country with the truth.
Let US proclaim our belief in the mar
ket place. Let us appeal to patriotism
and to reason from our conviction of
right. Thus if we should win we will
win. If we gain victory by any 9TH
er means it will be victory too dearly
bought.

the elevators. The matter was taken
up this afternoon by the board of
directors of the merchants exchange,
and after hearing both elevator men
and shippers and receivers, the board
established a uniform tare of 60 pounds
on corn and 80 on wheat to the car, the
same to be deducted from the gross
weight of grain i'll the. cars, to cover
waste in handling, it being shown that
this is the universal practice, although,
perhaps, not generally known"
Where there is not a pound of loss, but
an absolute gain in weights after ]iber-
al weighing into the car, this 60 and 90
pound business will be quite interesting
and even profitable to the elevator
men. Oh yes; keep the farmers hands
of of the elevators.
The democratic party is not at all al
sea upon the tariff. 1t is only a few
limid politicians that have been scared
by some big manufacturers threats.
Tn national democratic convention o
1884 will declare for tariff laid s.on ,
for revenue" as it has done in the past
and as its entire history demands thai
it should do in the future.

tatives has passed an act taxing every
