TOO MUCH POLITICS.
The President on the Great Tariff
Question.

QueSCl0n.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 29.-The president
a conversation with a friend, gave an
outline of his position on the tariff. "My
views on the tariff have been very much
misunderstood. I am not a free-trader,
nor am I what some call a high protec-
tive tariff man. I believe that there is a
middle ground upon which we ran all
stand with perfect regard for the inter-
ests of industry and II sufficient revenue.
There is no doubt that the system of rails
ing revenue tor the support of the gov
eminent from the duties OF foreign mer-
chandise imported intOthe country is the
methods for the object in view. We
know that II income tax was not popu-
lar. and that Il land tax would affect the
agricultural class. These are the meth
DDS resortel to when the GU tom plan is
not used. A system of duties basel
on the idea of revenue with incidental
protection seemst to be the proper middle
ground In particulariziny the case
the president said: Il don't think that
Mr.. Morrison or Mr.. Randall, or the gen.
t!elnen who side with them, are in the
right line. There is too much politics
and not enough industry in the UNDER
lying purposes of their scheme. a meas
ure 81 deeDly affecting the economic M
teresis Of the government should lie ar
range with reference 10 economic AMI
political conditions The president
intilnated that he would not advise any
attempt to pass Il tariff bill at the coming
session, but would urge the addition Of
the administrative features of the Hewitt
bill; that the existing statutes were in
adequate in the matter Of enforcing the
customs laws. In the course of conve
sation the president indicate | his pur-
pose to take The tariff question into his
own hands and make it an adlnlnistra-
ton measure. Hesaid II have watched
the progress of this tariff agitation in the
house and perceive that it will be neres-
sary for the administration to take hold
of it. In the present condition of things.
it is doing the Democratic party great
damage by fomenting faclional dissen-
sions. BY the time the Fiftieth congress
assemblies it is not improbable that the
administration will have a measure TO
recommend. 1t will be measure that
will take the advanced ground of the
Democratic party and may DO the issue Of
next campaign. There is a tendency to
crowd the tariff question. Therefore, in
stead of lodging and doubling, the Dem
ocratic party had better take a stand and
test it before the people,"
