Mckinley the Real Friend of Free Trade,

Mr.. BIA1NE's second letter TO Senator
FRYE makes still clearer the fact that with
respect to tho removal OF the sugur tariff
no is the protcctionist and Mr.. MCKINLEY Is
tho FREQ trader.
10 cut of what was supposed at tho time
to 10 source OF supcriluous revenue, Mr..
MCKINLEY proposed to mako sugar free,
without gaining airy compcnsating benefit
for American industry.
That lie the FREQ trade principle-tarifr for
revenue only, and larger or smaller duties
according TO the amount Of revenue needed
for tho support Of The Government
Mr.. BLAINE proposes to use tho tariff on
sugar in such n way as to yeid the greatest
amount OF benefit to American industry;
and that Is the very essence Of protcctionlst
doctrine.
Those free traders who think they SEQ in
Mr. BLAINL'S proposition n distinct advance
on his part toward their own creed arc
mistaken. What he advocates is, as lie says,
the highest form of protection
"Why not go further" they ask, land
treat tho tariff on every article We import
Just as you propose to treat tho sugar
duties? Would not that be carrying your
new theory of protection In its highest form
to its logical consequences Z"
Yes, If the revenue were not needed and
the incidental benefit to American industry
could be clearly shown to be greater by that
arrangement than by any other.
That is just what n protectioHist would do
without hesitation If it wero possible and
advantageous; but alfree trader could not do
it on that ground, if he remained true TO the
doctrine that the Government has power to
levy customs taxes only with view to rev.
enue, and not to stimulate, encourage, and
protect the private business enterprises OF
American citizens.
For real encouragement, therefore, the
free trade theorists must look to Major Nc
KrNLEY's sugar plan, not to Mr. BLA1SE's.

Tic City RedistrIctcd.

The Board OF Police Commissioners has
concluded, in conformity with the provisions
OF the new electoral law, tho redi5tricting OF
the city, a task OF great magnitude and i'm
portance. and one which has been most
creditably performed. The new electoI al
law WAS signed by Governor HILL OH May
g and on May 16 The Sun declared that the
section prescribing 800 as the maximum
number Of voters in any ore election dis
trict should not be made the occasion for
any increase in tho number OF polling places
Q,O19 last year,. The Sun said:
THE law does rot prescribe that the Police Com
nlissUners must divide tho election districts; they
alter ,hen by adding tie Bupsruous voters OF dis
trict to all adjacent ono which has fewer than 800
votes Thus there might BIO no need OF any neT dis
icts; and al any rala not moro than Al you'd be
quired. On the other hand 81 election districts cast
last year less than TO- votes eaeh and thsso must Of
course. DO consolidated uuder the terms OF tho law
The suns view of this matter gave some
offence at the time 10 the early and original
ballot reformers. whose cherished notion OF
good government it is TO have us many paid
officers as possible anu to havG nothing done
by the citizen individually which can byany
possibility be done by the State or its ennis
sarieS. According TO tho theory of the
rcformers, there were TO be some / 600 cleo
ton districts instead of l.Ol9--an increase OF
over 800 eGtailing upon the city an expense
for rent and salaries OF 100000.
But, aS TIE Sun indicated that the Police
Board would do, those districts having less
than the requisite voting population have
been consolidated, so that this year the total
number will be 947, against l.Ol9 last year,
reduction OF 70, aud direct saving 10 the
city OF about $4,000.
1t Is stated above that the work OF redls-
trietlng has been creditably done. 1t ought
perhaps to lie added that the work has been
thoroughly done as well. The whole city
has been gone over. for the first time since
1870; inequalities have been corrected and
trans ormation of districts effected in ac-
cordanGe with the constant shifting OF popu-
lauop during the past ten years.
II We look for the probable results Of these
