THURSDAY, SEP. "a, 1891.

SEVERAL papers, among them the
amateurish organ of the Democracy in
this town, disfgure their alleged editorial
pages by the publication in supremely
homely type of certain words said to
have been uttered by Secretary Blaine
in condemnation of the Mckinley bill.
1t is not at all probable in the first place
that Mr. Blaine spoke these words. But
assuming that he did, have the intelligent
organs above mentioned forgotten that
when he was reported to have said them,
the Mckinley bill was in process of
writing and was afterwards thoroughly
remodeled by its author in conformity
largely to suggestions from the Secretary?
Reciprocity features were added by Mr..
Blaine himself. If he actually con-
demned the measure in the manner he
is said to have done, it was when that
measure was immature and inchoate.
To assert that Mr.. Blaine condemned
the completed bill is to persist in a
stupid absurdity, for the completed bill
is largely the creation of his own brain.

DEMOCRATIC journals repeat like
parrots who have nothing else to say,
''the tariff is tax" There is nothing
startling in the assertion. Everyone
knows it to be tax. It is tax paid
into the treasury of the United States
by the hosiery manufacturers of Saxony,
the worsted spinners and weavers of
England, the button makers of Austria,
the tin n-plate manufacturers of Wales,
the stocking -knitters of Nottingham and
Leicester, the linen makers of Belfast,
the glass blowers of Belgium and Ger
many, the cutters of Sheffield, and by
numberless other manufacturers over
the pauper labor countries of Europe.
1t provides money for running this
government, makes it possible for us to
manufacture all these things, and is the
sheet anchor of our commercial liberties.
Yes, it is tax, and may this country
never cease to have such tax.
