GEN. HARRISON ACCEPTS

Gen. Harrison's letter of acceptance fol-
lows so closely upon that of President
Cleveland as to show that 1t had been cut
and dried and was kept back only to give
him the fish woman's advantage of the last
word. He seems, however, to have turned
1t to little profit. The flop" on the
Chinese question may have been the re-
suit of Clevelands positive utterances on
that subject, and so his splurge" against
unrestricted foreign immigration, and his
reputation of Blaines Portland speech, but
a feeble denial that trustsderive their chief
support from tariff imposition. In regard
to the surplus, however, he has no thought
of meeting Cleveland's impregnable pres
entation of the gravity of that subject, and
meets it fiippantly with the currish init
nation that there is surplus only because
the money is needlessly boarded for sinister
purposes. The money should be used, he
thinks, to fatten our already over>gorged
bondholders by purchasing their securities
at usurer's premium of % cents on the
dollar.
But the climax of feebleness and dema-
gogism is reached when the subject OF
tariff reform Is approached. Ignoring
Cleveland's constant observation that, in
all his efforts in favor of tariff reduction
aud reform he has not thought of assailing
the principle of protection, his only effort
being to benefit our industries by enlarging
their sphere In giving them cheaper raw
materials. Gen. Harrison says, In effect,
that ia all pretence: 1.-THE Mills bill is
only a step, but 1t is toward an object that
the leaders of democratic thought and
legislation have clearly in mind" The
step is to remove injurious shackles on
production, and trades, Suppose it is only
tentative, and should the result prove In a
marked degree beneficial, the democratic
thinkers" may have further advances on
that line in their minds.' What of 1t!
Are you alarmed that democratic exper-
iment, admitted to threaten no harm In
itself, may prove an eminent success
And that it Is thing to be dreaded and
opposed! Surely this is the essence OF
feebleness and pusilauimity.
The letter has throughout the tone OF
purely perfunctory endorsement of the
Chicago platform and sickish attempt to
summarize the clap.trap arguments by
which that deliverance is attempted to be
defended before,the American people. The
job is as we'll performed perhaps as Blaine
himself could have done It, though with
occasional symptoms of inward grimace by
which certainly Blaine never would have
been troubled.
