Gov. Hendricks on the Tariff.

In bis speech in Chicago last week,
Gov. HENDRIcKs ssii:
In the platform OF the Republicans the
promise was made to correct the inequali.
ties ani excuses Of the tariff. This ad-
mitted that the present taxa'i IN was un:
eanal, because It is levied in excess of
the nations needs. The speaker said
nineteen wears had elapsed eince the war,
vet the Republican party contessiag the
inequslity of its taxation at the end OF
that lime asks you TO continue it in power
and promises to remedy these evils.
Will You trust ila No,sno.] The Re-
publicans we're trying to make the peo.
pie believe that Democracy. IL it se-
cured power, would inaugurate free trad.
That statement was not true. Tse
Democratic party was not in favor OF
free trade, 1t bad always favored rsi.-
ing the revenue for the government by
means of tariff. What tue party did
claim was that the amount of tariff be.
ing collected
SHOULD BE REDUCED.
The Democratic poiat was that the tar.
llf should be reduced 20 the wants OF the
Government economically administered.
In support OF this he had the words
OF no less high an authority than Presi-
dent Arthur. The Republican party
was collecting eigh,y.fve millions yearly
above the needs Of the Governmep
