DISCUSSION or THE TARIFF.

The general debate on the Tariff bill has
motor;allv strengthened Republican confidence
in the ability and wisdom OF the leaders in the
House This is the more important because
there are many new members, who did not
witness the dramatic overthrow OF the Mills
hill in debate by Mr. Mckinley and his asso-
ciates and who might possibly be impressed
nv the clatter of Free-Trade organs with an
idea tina, there is much disaffection among Re-
nublcan voters. On the other hand, the de-
bate has not tended to increase Democratic
confidence in the leaders who brought upon
that Marty the great defeat of 1888 Mr..
Mills and his associates have only rehablll-
tated the very arguments upon which the pco-
ple rendered a verdict against them, but have
not been found equal 10 the real question at
issue this year, namely, whether the proposed
bill is well calculated to carry out the purposes
for which the people voted.
Practical craftsmanship pays some respect
TO the decisions of the people. When they
have pronounced in favor of policy, the only
question properly before Congress is whether
the measure proposed is good one OF IT'S
l,ind-whcther it is well calculated to attain
the results for which the people voted. On
that question Mr.. Mills and his Democratic
associates would have concentrated their argu-
ments if they had been men of practical states
manship. Had they been able to convince a
few members that the measure pending was
not in accord with the principles which pre-
vailed in the election, they would have accom-
plished something. Instead, they saw fit 10
rail at protective principles. exactly As they
had done before the people gave their verdict
perhaps because of consciousness that the
measure could not be aSSailed as respects lis
conformity 10 the popular decision.
1t has been difficult task to frame bill
which would reconcile the conflicting needs
and interests of States from the Atlantic to the
Pacific and from the lakes to the Gulf. 10
please all, in all respects, was obviously I'M
possible. The plain duty Of the committee was
70 take that course which would meet the
needs and promote the interests of the largest
number. In the debate members OF the com
mittee have submitted able arguments to prove
that the measure they propose Will thus beneht
the country rs whole, and they have not
failed to impress Republican members OF the
House strongly with that conviction. The
discussion of details will now follow, and II
is no diSpara cement of the work of the com
mittee 10 say that in some Of these the bill may
be found to need amendment But the House
ought 10 vote a. the committee appears 70 have
acted, with an honest cndeayor to serve the
whole country and not this or that separate
locality II ought also to bear in mind that
amendment is not cmaScuation, and when
Democrats propose 10 poke holes in the bill
under prctext of curing lis defects the House
will not fail to remcmbc: that they have OPEN
~ ayowed principles hostile to those which
ought TO govern itS action.

REDUCTION. 81 $50 7Ot

These figures demonstrate the proposition
which has so often been demonstrated before,
that Republican administration in Ncw-l ork,
AS in the country at large Is economical adj
ministIation. The last Legislature which is 10
be credited with this substantial reduction OF
the taX-rate was Republican in both branches
When the session began last January the Re-
publican leaders in the Senate and Assembly
resolved that not one unnecessary penny should
be drawn from the public purse. Acting in
conformity with this resolution, the Finance
and the Ways and Means committees, TO which
all the bills calling for appropriations were
sent, became vcritable watchdogs of the treas
ury. Not only did they keep the great fiscal
measures Of the year free from all Jobs ana
items that seemed open TO suspicion, but they
also kept them free from appropriations which,
however mertOriOus, were not so urgent that
they could not be postponed until another
session without injury to the interests involved
As a result Of steady adherence to this policy
of strict economy the General Appropriation
bill and the supply bill as they were placed
in the Governors hands could justly be called
model measures. The Governor signed the
former without yetoing Il single item, and then
wrote 10 the chairman OF Finance and Ways
and Means: 81 have seldom had an OppOr-
tunity Of approving 50 perfect measure, since
it fuflS in every respect what an annual ap-
prOpriation bill should be-" II is doubtful if a
better-de>ervcd or more emphatic c0mpli-
ment was ever won from a bitter political OPP
poncnt than this one which David Il. Hill pays
to Republican Legislature. And that he re
gardcd the other Of the two bills rs worthy OF
hearty commentator is attcSted by the fact
that with the exception of one small item he
approved its entire contents.
Now suppose the Democrats had been in the
majority in the last Legislature would the
taxes have been reduced? Probably not
answering the question in the light of expert
encc, most certainly not. As a rule, Demo-
cratic Legislatures have come high. There
was Democratic Legislature in lSS3-there
has been none since then-and it raised the
tax-rate instead of reducing it. If we go back
to the years when Tweed held high carnival at
Albany-and Democratic Legislatures have
been rarity since that epoch-we find that
the Democrats who were in power appropriated
nearly SIS, 500, 900 in excess OF the State s
revenues. Hence there is good reason for be-
lieving-since Democracy still is hostile to re-
