The tariff question has been dis
cussed in ponderous editorials by the
newspapers, pamphlets have been
printed to elucidate it and scattered
broadcast over the land, and orators
have tried their best to make it clear
to their audiences. In spite OF all
this it is aquestion hard to follow in
all its qualifications: One point is
worth considering The Mckinley
bill is severely criticised and strongly
opposed in the European countries.
The Mills 'bill received no such oppos-
ition at their Hands. The interest Of
these peopla is not aroused to such
pitch solely because they are anxious
for American sdccess and prosperity
But they see in the enactment of the
bill Il menace sto their own business.
Horace Greely.sin his day promul-
gated the doctrine that it was good
plan to find out what your enemy
didn't want you to do and then do
that thing. These are not his words
but they contain the idea. 1t follows
then that tariff law founded on the
line Of protection is the one for the
United States.-Dayton Chronicle.
