out the campaign by the republicans.
The very best talent in that party is to
be devoted TO bringing this style OF
political work up TO its old time respec-
liability. There has been tor some time
u disposition evinced to ridicule the
ensanguined garment, and until the last
message of President Cleveland the
republicans had halfway assenled to
its elimination from politics. If the
democratic party had agreed to go on
in its old halting way about the tariff
the republican party would have had
plenty Of ground to make a good fight
on without the shirt. But Mr.. Cleveland
having, to u certain extent, pushed his
party from the fence, and pushed il on
the right side, too, the republicans,
forced from what they intended az their
place OF attack, are constrained to ap-
peal TO an unh0ly, vicious, revengeiul
sentiment in order to rally their men
THIS appeal shows to what desperate
straits the party is put. Aud there is
no better sign for the democrats than
that the leaders OF the enemy are now
more ierociou5 and madly foolish than
they have heretofore been.

THE TARIFF AND TRUST.

From the Dsllss. Texas. News.
n complication of opinions and
a tangle OF arguments have arisen ont
of the sugar trust investigation aud The
new tariff bill. The New Orleans
PIcayune Is as pronounced as the
Iimes-Democrat in opposition 10 the
bill. 1t is declared that Mr.. Mills has
consolidated against his bill the enor-
nous and varied interests Of the trusts.
Criticising the reductions in general as
inadequate to entitle the bill to be re-
garded as strong anti protection
measure,t the Picavune unexcitedly sup
Plies all argument contrary to its own
favorite branch OF the protective sys-
TEN. The sugar duty has been defend
ed as a revenue duty. The Picayune,
however, says:
The "cut" in sugar, though large
enough to pinch the home producers,
will so increase the revenue OF i'm
ports that the aggregate duties collect
ed would soon Offset the proposed re-
duction in the tariff, fact which was
proven by similar "cut" few wears
ago.
Then the reduction is in accord with
revenue principles after all. OF two
duties, high one and low, both cal
culated to produce the same revenue,
the low duty must of course be pre-
ferred by the free trader. The hiuh
duty will always be preferred by the
protectionist or in other words the man
who prefers the high duty which Yields
no more revenue than the low one is a
trotectionist. Those revenue reform
ers who thought that a cut in the sugar
duty would reduce revenues and there
lore opposed the cut, if convinced that
FveyeRRe will rapidly recover by in

cal. Pig iron eau be made in the south
at profit without any duty. Putting
1t upon the free list with wool wou'd
have better accorded with symmetry
and Just expediency. The manufgc-
ture OF steel should have had no more
than half the duty lett upon il; neither
should woolen cloth have been pro-
tected more than half what Mr.. Mills
proposes. with free wool, to give a
reasonable demonstration of practical
progress. The attack upon the sugar
trust may or may not be specially
polite i'll fact or intention. Il is always
refreshing 10 see any abuse attacked,
provided some greater one is not shield
ed by diversion of attention. But the
Courier-Journala and the Times Demo-
crat are plainly in error in denying
that the tariff tur,hers trust monopo-
lies. True, 'the only sugar reiiaing
interest i'll Louisiana is In the trust.
though that sugar pays no duty" but
that sugar is protected by duty. The
high tariff is one very important basis
tor monopolistic combinations, and il
the Journals mentioned should succeed
IN discovering some trust whereof the
basis IS some other restraint upon com.
petition. still the discovery wonld not
invaiidate the truth that the sugar trus,
aud several other trusts are positively
dependent upon the tariff as u.ir
particular basis.

MAJOR GENERAL INGALLS,.
| From the New York Herald

At least one would suppose he had
becn a major-gencral in the late war,
from the naughty manner in which he
denounced everybody, from the prcsi-
dent down, yesterday in the senate.
Alas, Mi. Blackburn showed this great
and formidable warrior to have been
only judge advocate in II Kansas volun-
tccr regiment. AT that the galleries,
which had listened awe struck to the
lugalls TRADE galleries laughed
No W ondcr. 1t was Bottom the Weaver
who had rOarei--not like II lion. but
very much like Il hyena.
Will the republican party make a
"campaign document" of this greatest
effort ut Mr.. Ingalls, life? If they do
not the democrats would do well to cir
cuIato it. such brutalities can only
hurt the republicans.

How a Reduced Duty Reduced sheep.

The Philadelphia Press, in answering o
subscriber who wants to know what effect
the tariff law passed by congress a few
years ago reducing the duty on wool had
on the sheep industry of the. country,
says: Hke
1.-The tariff of 1888 not only reduced the
duties on wool. but by reducing the rates
on wooden goods and changing the CLASH
fication on worsted it stimulated imports,
so that the market for homo wool was cut
both ways, directly and indirectly. The
number of sheep in tho United States has
decreased under this tariff from so, DOC, 900
in 1885 10 43, 900 900 in 1888, while on the
regular advance In progress before, 1t
should have reached "a 900 900. The
sheep in this country belong to 1000
flock masters, employing 1,200, 900 men,
with an invested capitalof $500, 900, 900.
The wool clip of the United States Is the
sixth largest in the world and under the
skill expended in developing our wool in
dustry the average weight of the Ameri-
can fleece has advanced from 1856 pounds
in 1910 to 3.52 pounds in 1870 and TO 9
pounds in 1887. The duty protecting this
industry amounts to 8 cents per head.
