A Strong Tariff Reform Letter

In his letter regretting that he could not
be present at the Fourth of July celebration
of the Tammany society of New York. the
President makes some strong points in favor
of reducing the tariff He calls attention
to the increasing surplus in the treasury,
and points out that this money is taken
from the pockets of the people and locked
in the treasury vaults without excuse
or reason. The government does
not want it because it has no use for it. The
people. however, do want it, and they have
very urgent need for it. Every dollar need
lessly taken from them renders it more diff
cult for them to make their business profit
able. or to make a living, and, besides. the
accumulation of the currency in the
treasury, rendering it scarce and difficult
TO obtain, threatens to bring about financial
troubles of a very serious character.
The President makes it very clear that
there is no free trade party in the country.
and that the cry of the protectionists that
the democrats are favoring free trade and
are hostile to the interests of the working
men is a senseess one. What the democrats
want is freer trade They aim TO
cheaper certain manufactured products
and secure wider markets, but in
doing this they do not intend that the wages
of workingmen shall be reduced or that
they shall be deprived of any of the neces-
stiles or comforts which they now enjoy.
They object to the present tariff because it
takes money out of every household for the
benefit of a few protected monopolies, and
does not give the great mass of the people
any advantages.
The President in his brief note states the
tariff issue between the democratic and
republican parties very strongly, and shows
that he is thoroughly familiar with that
issue. He could not say more in support
Of the democratic position with regard to it.
and there is little if any, doubt that his
letter will assist in calling the attention of
the people to the tariff, and impress upon
them forcibly the necessity for tariff
reduction.
There is a sincerity in all that the Presi-
dent says and does, which is appreciated bv
the people. They are forced TO recognize
the fact that he is deeply in earnest and has
profound appreciation of the responsible
duties of his great Office. He writes good
many letters in response to those sent to
him, and, remarkable as it may appear, he
makes no mistakes in the sentiments he ex-
presses in any Of them.

The republicans of the senate appear 10
be more anxious to advance the interests of
their party than to promote the pubic
good They kept the nomination OF Mr..
Fuller for chief justice in committee as
| long as they decently could, and then re-
ported it without recommendation though
they were unable to find any reason why 1T
should not be confirmed. They hoped evil
| IDENTIFY that such charges would be filed
against him as would enable them to with
hold action upon his nomination until after
the election, so that if the republicans were
victorious, they could reject it aud leave the
way open for the nomination of repub-
lican for chief justice. They we're finally
forced TO yield TO the pressure Ct public SEN
timent, however, and report the nomlna-
ton to the senate.
There is another instance in which they
have manifested their jealousy of the sue
cess OF Mr.. Cleveland's administration and
of the efforts of the democratic party to
promote the interests of the people. For
long time there has been an urgent need of
treaty with Great Britain that would per
NIT the extradition of defaulters and en-
bezzlers who took refuge in that country or
its dependencies Although the republicans
were in control of the government for a
quarter of a century they paid no attention
to this need. The amount of the defal-
cations and entertainments amounted TO
millions of dollars annually and the default
ers escaped to Canada or England and lived
in luxury on their lll-gotten gains, or made
terms with those whom they robbed and
returned to their homes to live in peace and
plenty.
When the democrats came into power
they negotiated Just such an extradtion
treaty as was needed, but the republican
senate has thus far refused to ratify it.
They have pigeon holed it, claiming to have
discovered some technical objection TO it.
The real reason they refuse to ratify it,
however, is that they don't want demo
cratic administration to have the
credit of negotiating such a popular
treaty A few days ago all tire bank
presidents Of Boston signed petition ask
ing the MasSac husetts senators to use their
influence to secure a treaty with Great
Britain that would permit the extradition
of defaulters and embezzlers, and it is
probable that bank presidents in all parts
of the country would willingly join In such
petition because a treaty of that kind is
a necessity. There is scarcely city in any
state in the union that has not suffered
from defaulters or embezzlers who have
escaped to Canada. Only day or two ago
one left Atlanta and has not yet been heard
from.
Cannot the republican senators rise above
party politics III matters which so closely
concern the welfare of the whole people!
Must the people continue to suffer in order
that the republican party may have a
chance to gain party advantage?

The letter of congratulation TO Gen. Har-
rison from Senator Sherman. mentioned in
the dispatches few days ago, appears to
be fully as warm but not as congratulatory
as reported. Being asked to furnish it for
publication, Gen. Harrison answered that
it was not written for that purpose. 1t is
said to have leaked out that Sherman used
very plain language in speaking of Fora
ker, Alger and Blaine, but acquitted Gen.
Harrison Of completely in their intrigues.
Evidently the Ohio senator is deeply wound
cd. He realizes that his last chance of
receiving the republican nomination has
slipped by, and he thinks he knows upon
whose shoulders to lay the blame. He may
relent next November, however, when the
returns come in. He will think then that
defeat at Chicago was preferable to defeat
at the polls.

the rear of them are the troops massed in

Changed Tactics OF the Republicans.

Changed Tactics OF the Republicans
1t seems that the republicans have
changed their tactics with respect to the
Mills bill Before the Chicago convention
1t was understood that they intended to
oppose a vote upon it by every means III
their power They proposed to make speeches,
introduce dilatOry motions and in every
other possible manner to obstruct the prog
ress of the bill. Now they have announced
that they are willing that q vote shall be
taken upon it within the next two weeks.
What is the meaning of this change in their
programme! Briefly, it is said to be that
they have come to the conclusion that it is
necessary for them to present some sort of
a substitute for the Mills bill The repub-
licans of the house are unable to agree upon
a substitute, but the finance committee Of
the senate has prepared one, which it will
present to the senate when the Mills bill
reaches that body. The outline of it was
given in our dispatches yesterday. The
republicans do not, of course, expect that
it will pass. Their purpose is to substitute
it for the Mills bill in the senate, and send
both bills to a conference committee. They
expect that that committee will not be able
to reach an agreement and that, conse-
quently, congress will nd journ without any
tariff legislation
The republicans believe that this pro-
gramme will put them in a better position
as regards the tariff than their original
programme of obstructing the Mills bill
would. 1t is by no means certain, however,
that it will The people know great deal
more about the iniquities of the present
tariff than they did six months ago, and
the new tactics of the republicans will not
be apt to deceive them. They will under
stand that the purpose of the republicans is
to prevent tariff reduction, and not to re
form the tariff. They will remember that
when the ways and means committee was
framing the Mills bill the republicans made
great cutlery because that
committee refused to hear all
who demanded a hearing, and they will
wonder how it was that the finance com
mittee of the senate framed a tariff bill
without giving a hearing to anybody
The truth IS, the republicans are in
tight place with respect to the tariff aad
no course they can now adopt with regard
to it will place them in favorable posi-
ton before the country They have delib-
erately refused to permit the tariff to be re-
duced, although the surplus in the treas
ury has accumulated until it has reached
dangerous proportions. The country will
hold them responsible if the surplus is not
reduced

The republican candidate for vice presi-
dent remarked tho other day that he intends
70 follow the advice recently given to Gen.

tiers, make any speeches, or consent to any

Morton probably expects his money to do
all his talking and writing.
