National Republican. (Washington City (D.C.)) 1872-1888, 1886-06-19

MIR. PRESIDENT: On July 4, ninety-seven
years ago, George Washington signed the first
tariff act, which formed the foundation OF our
American policy, known in history US the Sec
ond declaration of independence.
The duties levied were not excessive, but
the policy of protection and commercial in L.
pendence on land and sea WAS distinctly
avowed by the friends Of the measure. Tne
Federallsts and Republicans of that day were
not divided In opinion they unanimously
favored policy OF protection In the adjust.
ment of custom dues. Since then sud.
den and remarkable changes in the
opinions OF American statesmen have
occurred. Notable among them was Mr..
Webster from a free trader to protectOnist +;
Mr.. Calhoun and Mr.. Van Buren, from pro-
tectionists to free traders. These important
changes In the positions Of eminent men 1t
may be supposed were produced by the same
cause which then influenced and has since,
oil our tariff legislation. namely, as stated by
distinguished authority an "eHiightaIed s'tdsI-
aesS"
II you will take the trouble to read your IN.
augural address, in which you write yourself
down q protectionist, then the paragraph upon
the tariff in your first message to Congress, ia
which you adroitly straddle the question, and
finally the recent letter OF your Secretary OF
the Treasury practically declaring for English
free trade, published by your sanction and ap
proyal, you will discover that the element OF
"eHlighteed aLfshRess' has wrought In you a
change OF head and heart, which constitutes
you the leader OF 10 Democrats VINO voted to
consider the Morrison bill and who iaYor tariff
policy not OF protection, but for revenue only.
1t was said OF Martin Van Buren, that he gen.
orally inclined to the popular side OF question.
Under the Van Bnren rule, so far as the Demo-
cratic party was concerned, you were justified
in changing from Il proLeclionlst 10 free
trader. because three.iourths of the Democrats
In Congress approve the Morrison bill. You
and your Cabinet were well informed Of tho
situation, and governed yourselves Accord
ingly As the wo-tbird rule controls y1ur
conventions, 1t Is not asking too much that the
Morrison bill should be supported by the ad-
ministration, when Morrison himi self Is sls.

men Of the committee on ways aud means was
National Republican. (Washington City (D.C.)) 1872-1888, 1886-06-19

announced-i4O for, 157 against It's cou'dera-
uon-Mr. Morrison gave notice that he would
renew the motion on Tuesday next. This will
give the free traders an opportunity to bring to
bear the potent influence Of "cnii0htenef selfish
ncss' upon the Randall Democracy, for there
nre two kinds OF Democracy now-the free
trade and the Randall. The latter claim to be
protectionists yet vote for a free.trado
speaker, who appoints tho committees which
control legislation.
It's about time they were wiped out It is
impossible under this administration for the
Randall men to be recognized rs simon pure
Democrats.
This fall tho people who favor the protective
policy should oppose any candidate who will
not promise to keepout of u Democratic caucus
that will be controlled by 122 southern free
trade votes No man can fairly and honestly
be called protectlonist who will go into q
Democratic caucus and vote for a free trade
such a caucus.
The division marked between the Republi
can and Democratic parties is now clearly dis
tnguishable upon the tariff question. Those
electors who prefer placing nearly 1900 arti.
cles upon the free list aud collecting customs
upon only a few score-necessary items, but
not produced by us, like tea, coffee. and also
sugar, Of which latter nine e-tenths of our con.
sumption is imported-wlll vote for nominee
| Of the Democratic party.
Those opposed to this, and choosing the
American protective policy. founded by Wash.
ington and maintained to-day by the Republi.
can party, almost unanimously, will unite
with tho Republicans in the selection and
election OF members of Congress In their rc.
spectivc districts.
In 1860 the opponents OF slavery the friend:
of free labor combined with the friends o
protection and elected Abraham Lincoln. A
similar interest is again presented, changing
only the word "slave" to "soryile" labor.
The line of battle is drawn. "Ho that /,
not for me is against me-" And upon thi,
basis an appeal is made to the Judgment ant
conscience of the American people for daci

Tho President. ReccntIon.

Nothing could have testified more strongly
TO the interest which the public takes in
hrs. Cleveland than the enormous throng
Of citizens who passed last night through
the reception rooms Of the white house.
We say "Mrs. Cleveland" advlsedly, be-
cause * the President had remained q
bachelor there can be little doubt that,
Notwithstanding the respect and esteem in
which he personally is held, the majority Of
his visitors, in such tropical weather as
prevailed last night, would have remained
severely at home.
Toa stranger in this country the con-
course was certainly astounding. At 0
O'Clock the people were wedged in solid
ranks, packed six deep, from the Riggs
House TO the farthest entry OF the Presi-
dents official residence. At 10;iO, when
all the reception rooms seemed crowded to
their utmost capacity, we found that the
crowd was just as dense and enthusiastic as
when we had leftlt two hours previously.
The main objection to so great o mass Of
uncrowned sovereigns consisted in the diff
fculty IT created about having good,
square look at the bride and bridegroom.
Where so many thousands OF people are
pressing on ones heels IL seems sort OF
impertinence TO pause Tor single second'
even 10 snake hands' But the PRESIDENT
was evidently In the best OF humor, ana
