CENTURY BEHIND THE AGE.
ppaaIo. Oct &C CspeciaD.-Not another person could
have been crowded into Music Hall To- night, In spite
OF the rain The attraction was Chauncey NJ Depew
In the course of his speech he said that the action
~ the Democratic orators travelling through the
state in a canal boat is indicative Of the spirit OF
the organisation 1t belongs TO the time OF KIP
Van Wrinkle President Cleveland is superb exponent
OF the canal boat theory OF government, or In other
words the policy which falls to grasp the needs and as
n,ratiops OF the country Overwhelming sefconh-
dencc combined with deficiency OF training and ex-
perience Is a power always loaded with political
dynamite and liable to explode in unexpected aud
destructive directions President with these charac-
teristics is sure meet the ordinary emergencies
which arise in every Administration with unwise ana
dangerous EXPERIMENTS hence, at a period of great
prosperity and development the President TO dispose
of a surplus precipitates revolution which cheeks
new enterprises and threatens established business
The school OF Calhoun advocated tariff for revenue TO
check the growing power of the North and 10 pro
feet slavery I'm the south by keeping labor in chains
The war destroyed forever these reasons for rev
enue tariff but the who had been educated Ia mat
southern school retain and practise the DOCTRINE
though the foundations OF the school have been
DESTROYED Hence three-ouarers of the votes which
passed the Mills bill had been educated in the state
rights pro-savery, free trade university though the
chairs of state rights and pIoslavery art empty NO
great Northern statesman and representative OF Ma
tional reputation of any manufacturing State Is on
te stump in behalf of this doctrine The Instructors
in this retrogradc revolution are Mr. Mis- of Texas,
the two Breckinridges and Mr.. Mchenns, of West
VIRGINIA They know nothing of the practical results
Of a protective policy. They are as unfamiliar win
e vast industries which have built w towns, FUR
ushed employ ment to millions, and produced growth
and prosperity unexampled in the history OF any
country as are herlsmen the plains. The Presi
dent being surrounded by the disciples OF this SCHOOL,
has accepted their doctrines and with his chatac-
teristlc unquestonlng confidence in any opinion he
has formed has made them the policy Of his Admins
tratlon Mr. Mills and his associates are impeiled by
theories de,ive ed from books, which not tempered by
practical experience. But the Engsh pcoPie, VIZ
want our market understand perfectly the piactlcal
results OF the Presidents policy. IL Is singular
fact that the British Minister, who represents snd
voices English sentiment, should have gwen SEM.
ocial cx preston tie desires OF his government
and people BuIchardism must take It's place ds
recognized part of political science ana the Presoyie
Ran minister who caused the defeat OF great party
by rousng prejudice Is surpassed by the Bilush Mh-
ster who has upset ali political calculations by stahs
