Tao President is upder the very great
mlsappreheus.on that a Vittue OF veiyCon'
siderable proportions lies in taking a mid
do ground on every question, This per-
hsps, Is one reesou Why he restored Dit
trics Attorney Bsuton, Democrat, OF Mis-

There Is o right side, and there Ia a
wrong SIDE oithe tariff Question, 70 take
a middle grouRd is TO be only somewhat
less wrong than thOss who take the Tree
trade ground, Tho INTGLLlGEScER is in
favor Of e tariff laid Tor revenue and pro-
lection, and II the country did not need
tho revenue, the lST~ELLIuENcER would
favor a taril for protection.
Any man or party lit to IeGislate on the
tariff question knows how to lay a tariff
thst will increase the Measure Of protee'
ton and reduce tho revenue from customs
dutlts. Take, for example, wool; the
tariff could bo placed TO light as praCtic-
ally to prohibit tho importation oil wool,
AMI ii there were no importation oil a
given commodity no customs revenue
could be derived from 1t,
Taere is no use Of being aqueamish
about this matter Of protection. There Is
awple warrant in the Constitution for a
tariff for protection. That instrument was
80 construed in practice by the men who
framed it, aud 1t 10 reasonable to suppose
that they know what they intended when
they made tho Constitution,
Tho "idea OF revenue" whether with or

idea OF protection, is an invention 10 sup
