The insignihcance OF all other political
;ssuss. and notably that of free silver. when
compared with the all-important question OF
tariff reform was again most strikingly shown
by Congressman Mills, Of Texas. in speech
delivered by him Monday night in Cincinnati.
Ohio. The speaker began by calling atten-
ton to the fact that when the Democrats
yielded the reins Of power to the Republicans
in 1889, the Treasury was filed TO repetion
with over $50, 900 900 of the peoples money.
unnecessarily accumulated through the e1or-
bitent tariff taxation which was even then
being levied upon the public. The Republi-
can government, however, did not attempt
TO lessen taxation 80 as to reduce the surplus
revenue to within proper limits, but. to the
contrary. they proceeded TO waste the immense
sam by scattering il abroad by any and every
means which they could devise, and at the
same time increased the drain upon the peo-
pie by the Mckinley bill.
Having presented this view of Kepuohcan
extravaganza and shown how the Republican
party was governed only 10y the one idea of
levying still more grievous burdens of taxa
favorites for partisan purposes. Mr. Mills ar
riyes OF the following logical deduction: Il
care not how much money you coin, or how
much you print and place in circulation, the
people can never keep it as long as the tax
gathersr has his arm in their pockets up TO
the shoulder"
Here is a whole story in nutshell. What
- I D.. a TO- ~ arQ
of the United States to have the freest Of free
silver coinage if the Republican system OF
tariff robbery is permitted to continue? SO
long as they are forced to pay such tribute TO
monopoly as the monopolists choose 70 i'm
pose-and by the Mckinley law the entire
home markets are placed completely in the
control Of the protected manufacturers
long will their money, no matter how plenti-
ful it may be, have to be paid out by them for
the support and maintenance Of the only
privileged classes known to the country.
Mr. Fassett, the Republican candidate for
Governor Of New York, in the opening OF his
campaign. exclaimed "One thing at time"
meaning that the Republicans Of his State
should dispose of State issues before ventur-
ing upon Federal politics. The Democracy OF
the Union might well adopt the same motto.
Let us dispose first of the tariff enormity which
is draining the sustenance of tho peoIls for the
enrichment of the Mckinley tariff beneficial
ries and then there will be time enough to
make provision for increasing the circulation
of the currency on healthy basis. Perhaps
if the farmers and other victims Of Mckinley
protection were relieved Of the heavy tariff
burdens now imposed upon them it might be
found that the same necessity for moro
money did not exist. Certainly it would not ex-
ist to the extent it has in the past and does at
present since the prices of the necessaries Of
life would be largely reduced, and what
money the tariff victims did possess would go
much further and be increased many times in
value. Let US then. have tariff reform first
and free silver. if necessary, can afterwards be
the more judiciously considered.

Ir DR.. Briggs is q hereto he has the conso-
lation Of knowing that a majority of his
brother clergymen feel sympathy for him.
When the vote was taken in the convention
to dismiss the prosecuting committee, and
stop all future judicial proceedings against
him. twelve elders and fifty clergymen voted
aye and twenty elders and forty-four clergy
men voted no. So it seems that the clergy
men favorable to dropping the subject were
IN majority Of six, while the elders opposed
to so doing were in q majority of eight,
making the total majority in favor of con-
tinuing the trial only two. This will be en-
couraging to the Doctor, no matter whether
he Is finally formally proclaimed guilty Of
