facts that other wise they might forget.
They will have the fact wildly recalled TO
them that the war tariff, whose burdens
their own earlier and greater leaders and
all their later presidents regarded as for
a time only and necessarily to be reduced
as occasion offered, has now been erected
by their party into fetch to be perus-
nentIy maintained. The moderate re-
vision of the tariff, which Garfield recog-
nized as desirable and Arthur
commended as necessary, is now de-
clared by the republican party,
as an organization, to be unwise, dan
perous, and even unpatriotic. The
democratic party stands on no more ad-
vlnced ground, In fact no other ground,
than the late Presidents Garfield and
Arthur stood on this tariff question.
They believed and the republican plat
form of 1884 declared that the war tariff
needed revision and reform in q moder-
ate spirit and with due regard to existing
industrial interests. That is exactly the
kiRd and quality of tariff reform which
President Cleveland has urged upon con-
gress and which the democratic party has
embodied in the Mills bill. Mr.. Blaine is
too skllfnl a debater to attempt to say
that the Mills bill amounts to free trade,
or that it is anything more than a very
moderate revision of the present tariff
rates. It will be his task to show that no
reduction of the tariff is necessary, or
ought to be tolerated. He can perform
that task more brilliantly than any other
living republican. We hope he will do it.
The stronger he puts the case for the
perpetuation of the war taxes forever and
ever, world without end, the larger will be
the body of formerly republican voters
who will reject Harrison on his ultra pro
tectionist platform, and be led to the
logical conclusion that if Arthur was right
Cleveland cannot be wrong.
If any one can prove thing exists that
really has no being, that man is james G.
Blaine. He undertakes his present task
not gratuitously, but, it is understood, be-
cause a cabinet position awaits him should
Harrison be elected. His task is an Her
culean one, and if democratic leaders
don't find vulnerable places in his armor
before the campaign is over it will indeed
be marvellous. He is handicapped by the
history of his party as arrayed against the
present attitude of the democrats and
their efforts for a quarter of a century
past, and he is worst of all handicapped
by the marvellous platform lately put forth
by his party.

CLEVELAND WILL TAKE HIS TIME.

The New York Tribune is pleased to be
facetious. 1t says:
"To Colonel Lamont: There is good
deal of inquiry in regard to the presi-
dents letter of acceptance. Won't you
be kind enough to step over to the dead
letter Office and see if it isn't thereH You
know thatthe president in his eagerness
to let the committee know for sure that he
accepted, may have misdirected his letter,
or may have forgotten to put stamp on
it. Or, even if the letter was properly
directed and stamped, it may have gone
astray all the same. You are doubt
less aware that the postal ser
vice of these United States hasn't
been first rate since your party friends
took hold al Washington? II you find
the letter at the dead letter office it might
be well not to trust it again to the mails,
but to send it to its destination by ex-
press, or district messenger boy, or a
carrier pigeon, or pneumatic tube
Can't you bear the suspense? Why
hurry the inevitable blow that will place
an unequivocsl quietus upon your party?
That letter, vixen it comes, will be a COM
bination and continuation of sledge
hammer blows right from the shoulder
that will send tumbling to ruin the faulty
structure the republican party has up
built, and to whose perilous shelter
it is inviting the ration. Let not the
heart of the Tribune be troubled about
the presidents letter; but the rather let
it, in earnest counsel, advise Harrison and
Morton as to the character of the letters
they should write. This is new and an
tried ground for them to travel, and
many thorns strew the way. Cleveland
has been along the road, knows its
stumbling blocks, its devious defiles, its
ups and downs. His letter will prove he
understands the situation. The Tribune
can calm itself with the desperation of
despair, the president will make no mis-
take

COAST FoRrIFICA1IoN AND TARIFF RE-
pUCTIoN, TOO.

DUCIION, IOO.
II will be remembered that the last pub
lie document of Samuel j. Tilden was a
ringing demand and appeal for coast de-
lenses. 1t was letter pointing out the
totally unprotected condition of our large
sea ports and the whole coast line, and
showing, as in addition to this, the United
States had no navy, we were at the com
plete mercy of all well equipped maritime
powers, so far as our commerce and ex-
posed coast country were concerned. At
that time the democrats attempted legis-
latiOn looking to correction of those
glazing evils, but in this they were i'm
peded and thwarted by the republicans
Since then the condition of our so-called
navy has been somewhat improved, some
new war vessels have been and are being
built and equipped. But nothing has
been done towards fOrtifying the coast
Yet, now the republicans are manifesting
an earnest solicitude for the safety of the
nation, a solicitude that cannot be salts
fed under an expenditure of hundreds of
millions of money at once to put our
coast in an impreguable condition. Sen
ator Dolph urges $140,000,00O appropri
alton. Still another republican will be
satisfied with the modest sum of $58,000,
600. The purpose of this anxiety is single
and very apparent on the surface. The
republicans are after the surplus. In
crease the pension list as they may, direct
money to the erection of public build
ings and denude the treasury by the
millions for this that and the other pur
pose, and yet the vaults of the national
treasury are fairly bursting with wealth.
If they could just take out $140,000,000 at
one jump, how happy they would be In the
thought that democrats would then have
no excuse for cutting down tariff rates to
lessen the revenues and provide against
such tremendous surplus as now exists.
Time was when democrats were most
enthusiastic for fortifying the coast, and
that time still exists. But they want it
done properly and with due regard to all
other interests of the nation. They do not
propose that republicans shall use this
question as a oats paw to pull out pro-
lection chestnu!s. So, at every
point in the struggle, the demo-
Gratis have met them and
have proven victorious. The house com
mittee has decided to report in favor of
$13,OOO,O0O appropriation, $6,2O2,67O to
be used this year, the balance within the fol-
lowing three years. In this matter, as in so
many where good, persistent and consci-
entious work was required, our congress-
man, Joe Sayers, is found to the front. It
is stated that, as chairman of the sub
on Notifications, he has for
month, day and night, and not excepting
Sundays, been fighting the republicans in
their efforts to drain the treasury in the
way described, and has succeeded In
having the present bill agreed npon. The
measure is an excellent one, and to Mr..
Sayers should due credit be given. He is
a most able and efficient representative
and one that this district and the nation
at large cannot afford to lose.

WHAT OF THOSE CAMPAIGN CLUBS?

Travis county can be made safe for
every name on the democratic ticket, but
it will require work to accomplish this.
Not disjointed, spasmodic effort, not an
occasional speech, some buttonholing and
grand rally the last few days before the
election, but conscientious, persistent, en-
thusiastic work. There must be har-
monious action and thorough organiza-
tion of forces. There must be recognized
leaders and consolidated bands of work
ers. All this can best be done by
means of clubs organized both in
the county and in the city.
These clubs can work together upon some
certain and pre-arranged plan. There
will then be no conflict, no uncertainty of
action and no gaps left in the work. The
organization of such clubs will kindle in
terest in the campaign, and their persist
ent work will beget and keep alive en-
thusiasm. In this way the "stay at homes
will be won to the polls, and the party
will be able to learn who its true and con-
sistent friends and allies are. Let us
have the clubs by all means, and at once.

THE HIGH PROTECTIVE TARIFF ABsO
Lutte ROBBERY.

Theft is taking from a person some
thing to which you have no right. The
federal government has no right, morally
or legally, to take money out of the
pockets of the people except for the
actual support of the government. But it
does force the people to pay money out
of their pockets over and above what is
required for the needs of the government
Thus, it takes by force that
which does not belong to it, and,
therefore, the government is guilty
of robbery of the people. This robbery,
is for the benefit of wealthy class-tbe
manufacturers-aud is carried on through
high protective tariff, which the repub-
lican party seeks to perpetuate, and the
democrats want to cut down to the actual
needs of the government. The total
amount of the robbery is represented by
the cash surplus in the treasury. Accord
ing to MIR. Mills speech in congress the
other day, this surplus foots up $l3o,OOO,-
600, and is increasing 100000 month,

GOVERNOR ROSS AND THE PARDoNIMG
POWER.

The recent report of Superintendent
Goree, at request of the governor, and in
cl1diDg the statistics of the institution
from 1S49 to the present, is comprehen-
sive and we'll timed, and one that puts the
present administration in proper aud
satisfactory light before the people. 1t
shows one thing which the people ought
to know: 1t is that Governor Ross, re-
spending to and respecting an in
creasing emphasis of public opinion
for the putting down of crime
within the borders of the state, has
narrowed down the use of the pardoning
power to the limit of what is demanded by
peculiar circumstances in particular in
stances requiring executive clemency.
While in 1870 the per cent par
doued reached 11.80, the present
year, under Governor Ross, the
rate does not exceed 1874 per cent. These
figures preclude any charge whatever
against the present administration for the
abuse of the pardoning power which had
been brought against some of his prede-
cessors. 10 this, as in other things,
Governor Ross has acted with an eye
single to the interests and welfare of the
people, who, by an overwhelming
majority, confded to him the helm of the
ship of state.
