the campaign. The contest said he,
was fought out upon the line of policy
laid down by the President in his mes
sage, and By the action Of the Democratic
majority in the House. The tariff issue
was ever present throughout the cam
paign, and il seems as though the Repub'
Leans have made the country believe that
we were committed to free trade, and the
people pronounced against it. Our po
sition was grossly misrepresenicd, as our
party has not at ahy time declared for
free trade, but simply for a reduction OF
excessive taxation. But the catchwords
of the canvass were all against us. We
have gone down In a contest entirely free
from personalities, fact upon which the
country is to be congratulated
Concerning Chairman Brice the Sera-
tor said For the first two months OF
the campaign most of his time was con
sumed in trying to induce active and in
fuenlial Democrats TO forget their dis
appointments and enter heartily into the
contest. Personal grievances were very
hard TO overcome in some instances, and
it was a difficult matter TO arouse some
Of the most valuable party workers. By

TO be overcome Colonel Brice had but
