 THE republican national platform, so far as it relates to the tariff, is considered by MT. Carlisle to s'straddle' the question. We give its exact language:
 It is the first duty of good government to protect the rights and promote the interests of it's own people. The largest diversity of industry is most productive of general pros- perity and of the comfort and independeD.,e of people. We therefore demand that the imposition of duties on foreign imports. shall be made not for revenue only, but that in raising requisite revenues for tlLe govern ment, such duties shall be 30 levied as to af- ford security to our diversified industries and protection to the rierts and ways of la borers, to the end that, active and intelligent labor, as well as Capital, shall have it's just award and the flooring man his full share in national prosperity. Against the so-called economical system of the democratic party, which would degrade our labor to foreign standard, we enter our earnest protest. The democratic party has failed completely to re- ieve the people of the burden of unnecessary taxation by wise reduction of the surplus. The republican party pledges itself to correct the inequalities of the tariff and to reduce the surplus, not by the vicious and indiscrimi- nate process of horizontal reduction, but by such methods as will relieve the taxpayer without injuring the laborer or great pro- ductive interests of the country.

 The result causes disappointment in the east, Maine being the only eastern state which gave Blaine my considerable sup. port, but the west was ablaze with enthu siasm for him, and the tide was irresistible, Roosevelt, of New York, leader in the opposition to Blaine, says: "Had J not been so positively for Edmunds don't know but what I should have been carried away myself by the contagion, and found myself throwing up my hand for Blaine. He is the choice of two-thirds of the rank and file of the party"
