ART AND DEMOCRACY.

The New York Sun is to the front
with one of its characteristic attacks.
In recent editorial headed Courage
and Cowardice opportunity is taken to
accuse the representatives Of the demo
cratic party in congress, with one excep-
ton. OF lacking the courage of their con-
vlctions The foundation for such
sweeping charge is to be found in the
fact that theMills bill, amongst its num-
erous tariff reductions, found no place
for the abolition or diminution of the
existing duty of thirty per cent. on
works Of art imported into this country
from abroad, and when the matter came
up for discussion only one democratic
member rose in his place to advocate
the desirability of a change in this re-
spect. The Mckinley bill, on the con-
trary, it is pointed out, provides for the
extinction Of the duty altogether. The
Sun takes exception to the democratic
policy in this matter; the protectionist
party favors abolition and the democrats
voted for retention.
But little reflection will show that
the charge is an unfair one. 1t will be
readily admitted as one Of the principles
OF government by the people and for
the people that while there are articles
of luxury for the production of revenue,
a tariff duty should be exacted from
them for the very purpose of allowing
the necessaries of life to be imported
and sold at the cheapest possible rate.
Without doubt this was the reason for
the retention OF the duty as it seemed
to the Trainer Of the democratic meas
ure. And the imported work of art is
luxury, and a luxury obtainable only
by the wealthy. Its very importation
presupposes the fact that it's owner has
sufficient Of this worlds goods to make
the voyage to Europe and while there tc
indulge his fancies by the acquisition
of whatever suits his taste. II not that
he is still wealthy man who is able t.
purchase such objects of art through
the agency of some one abroad wht
holds his commission for that purpose
II it could be shown that the msjorit,
or even large number OF the works o
art imported into this country were DIES
tined to fulfil an educational purpose
to supply valuable material for thu
training Of our own artists and do ava.
with the necessity and the expense Of q
journey to Europe for purposes of study
the state Of democratic opinion woulG
he very diffarent Rut facts do not hea,
this out. The imported picture and the
imported statue are for the most par
consigned to the private galleries o.
wealthy individuals and are kept there
for the selfish qualification of the senses
or the vanity Of the purchasers ant
their intimates alone. In a measur
framed in the interests of the toilers Q
this country, the democratic party, what
ever Mr.. Dana may say, could not cor
sistently insert clause abolishing tn
existing duty on imported works of ar

The work done and left undone by the
Legislature of 1890 Is carefully summed up
in our Montpelier letter. The things done
which are of leading Importance are the
passage of the Australian ballot law, the
new corporation tax law, and new school
law The list of things not done Is much
longer At its head stands the failure to
establish a new agricultural college-in re
gard u tine merits of which there will be
a wide difference of opinion. A new col
lege, which would really meet the needs
of the farmers rnd attract their sons as
students, would be of undoubted merit and
value, but the senate, where the project
met its defeat, evidently believed that this
