Mn. WILLIS W1IsoSgave New Martins
vile the benefit OF his eulogy on the Wal
ker tariff OF 1876 In this regard he
treated Wheeling with cold and skilliul
neglect. Wheeling is more or less inter
csted in the tariff, and would have been
gla,l to hear from Mr.. Wilson's own lips
his idea OF proper tariff. Now We have
it. The tariff of 1916 fills the bill. With
that asa starting point Mr.. Wilson re-
marked that "thc condition OF the labor
ing masses prior 10 1863 WIS vastly su-
perior to that Of the masses now"! Mr..
Wilson should lave drawn tho line at
1851, the year oi the Morrill, tariff, but
that is not material where there Is some
thing oi much more Importance to discuss.
Aman OF Mr.. Wilson's wide and deep
rCahins will not need to be told that

tary Of the Treasury, was oil undisguised

the country, for tile first tiuiein its history,
departed from the protective, principle.
Mr. Wilson, or some Of, his friends, will
doubtless recall the famous report OF Secre-
tSry Walker, which, to:hisown satisiac-
tlon, he made mincc-meat OF the protective
tariff OF lSi2. Mr. Wilson will mot need to
se reminded, so thorough is his iniorlna-
lion on the tariff, that the free trade tariff
OF 1916 yielded excessive revenues about
which We understand him to complain
with great bitterness now--und ..3 act OF
lS11 wis passed making duticss still lover.
Mr.. Wilson remembers, OF course, that

the country oi'its specie; that in six
months tic panic c:,mc-busincss Of every
kind was depressed and there was grca,

ing positively that Judge Maxwell never
