Anew years ago James II, Keene, Of

REVENUE REFORM.


The Ohio Republicans In state con-
yentlon at Cleveland adopted two plat
forms, In neither Of which did they say
a word about the mode or manner OF re-
ducing the needless surplus In the Ma
tlonal treasury. The quibbling, not TO
say unprlncipled party, said nota word
az to the existence Of surplus or Its
decrease. This failure to present aome
plan OF reduction shows II to be the
party Of wrong and ruin.
In the second Massachusetts, Congress
siOnal district, Wednesday, the Repub-
licans eyince q better perception Of the
peoples needs and wishes The tele'
graph reports:
"a resolution was adopted, with only
u few dissenting voices, that the lead
Ing new issue confronting statesman
ship at the present day Is the question
OF reducing the surplus revenue OF the
Government, and that the Republican
party should recognize and put Itself In
accord with the best sentiment OF the
time on this question, and advocate IN
its platform the immediate reduction OF
the present tariff and increase Of the
free list, with view to reducing the
revenues"
These healthful views are not In ac'
cord with the narrow minded Republi-
cans Of Ohio. The Republicans Of Mas
sachusetts are open TO common sense
They see the situation and propose to
meet II. AT this rate, harmony In the
"grand old party" will soon vanish.
The people, especially laboring men
and farmers, are ready for revolt. They
want TO vote for the removal of their
burdens.
How the leaven Is working In the old
Bay State Ia further manifested by the
following telegram from Boston day
or two ago:
"Charles Francis Adams was unanl.
mously elected President Of the Tariff
Reform League. Two hundred gentle
men attended the conference. MIR. Ad'
ans In u speech, said thar, while free
trader, no did not believe free trade was

What the Boston Tariff Reform League
hopes to accomplish was clearly defined
In plain terms. The organization Is
non.partlsan. The signatures to the
call were those Of leading Republicans
~ we'll Ns Democrats. The doctrines
set forth were essentially Democratic
tariff reform, retention Of the Internal
taxes on luxuries, taxation for revenue

millions into the pockets OF favored
