The Cape Girardeau Democrat. (Cape Girardeau, Mo.) 1876-1909, 1892-07-09

The Democratic platform contains
a plank that was taken almost bodily
from the constitution of the deiuncl
Southern confederacy. 1t is its tariff
plank, which declared that q protec-
tive tariff is unconstitutional and that
this government ha, no right TO pro-
tect its home industries and the work
ingmen to whom they afford employ
ment.
This means that the government
has no right to forbid the entrance of
contract laborers from abroad, or of
the product of their labor, by the i'm
position of legal penalties on the first
and of the tariff on the second. 1t Is
fair to say that the tariff plank, as
originally presented at Chicago. dis
tinctly provided for the protection of
of domestic industries and the wages
of American workingmen. and that
OOs llitIilDtIS VI llC COhNOhtioh
for this original plank, while nearly
600 stood for that which was taken
from the rebel constitution.
The constitution declared that no
.aduties or taxes on importations from
foreign nations shall be laid to pro-
mote or foster any branch ofindustry."
The Democratic platform at
Chicago declares it to be a funda-
mental principle of the Democratic
party that the Federal government
has no constitutional power to impose
and collect tariff duties except for the
purpose of revenue only" The close
resemblance between the purpose of
this plank and the declaration of the
secession constitution on this subject
is readily seen.
Do the people of the United States
propose to vote for candidates who
adopt as their tariff principle the
notification declarations of the con-
federate constitution?

This ia n Billion ConSress!

The comparison of appropriations
of this session of Congress, with
those of the first session of the last
Congress, made in the House the
other day by Mr.. Holman, and which
called forth a statement in rcbuttal
for the Republicans from Mr.. llcnder-
son of Iowa, shows that the total APP
preparations, regular and permanent,
for the present session, are S~lS5,SS7,-
III, while those of the first session of
the Congress were 541,230,672. De
Quoting from these amounts the
regular and deficiency pension ap-
preparations, the appropriations for
the first session of the last Congress
exceeded the appropriations for this
session by SS3,294,910. The statement
shows that the Fifis-first Congress, at
its first session, appropriated s3l,54l,-
654 for the navy, while this Congress
has SO far appropriated S~23,416,773.
The deficiencies appropriated for by
this Congress amount to $1i,441,121
compared with SSS,699,746 appro-
priatcd for by the first session of the
last Congress. Mr.. Holman estimates
that the amount of revenues for the
next fiscal year will be S455,S56.S5O.
MI. Henderson, in his statement,
shows that the regular and permanent
annual appropriations provided for
by the House in the first session of
the Fifty-first Congress aggregated
only ~siI3,S22,s77, while in the present
session of the House there has been
appropriated S4s5,ss7.777. making the
appropriations of the House for this
session exceed those of the House for
the first session of the Fifty-first Con-
grcss by $i2,4O9,111. He makes a
separate statement concerning pen
sions. which shows that the H%ousessin
its present session has appropriated
for this purpose $142,499,S 1898, as
against $164,55o.sss appropriated in
the first session of the last Congress,
making the total appropriations for
this session TO exceed those of the
corresponding session OF the last
Congress by s22,o5o,s9o.

A Democratic politician. in a tariff

A Democratic politician, in a tariff
speech recently delivered in the
West. said: "Grindstones-there is
not a farmer in the United States that
can run his farm without a grind
stone. and that is taIed. Grindstones
are taxed Is per cent" Yes, foreign
grindstones are taxed. American
grindstones, however, are not taxed
Buy an American stone, and thus en-
courage some good American citizen
to quarry and cut them out of our
own hills. The American citizen
who quarries and cuts that stone vii
then have money to buy the wheat
potatoes, beef, pork and other pro
ducts of the farmer.

The Democrats and Mugwumps
mercilessly criticised President Ilar-
rison when he recommended vigor-
GUS retaliation on Canada for discrim-
nations against our shipping in Ca
madam canals. 1t will pain these
critics, whom nothing this admins
tration does can please, to know that
the Dominion Cabinet is reported TO
have already rendered concessions to
our State Department. The United
States has the right in this matter,
but it needed a Republican President
to assert it.

In the Senate the other day Mr..
Vest made a silly attack Oh Chairman
Campbell, of the Republican National
Committee, charging that he was the
attorney for Philip ID. Armour, of
Chicago; that he represented q dress
ed beef monopoly. This ridiculous
assault met a prompt response FROM
Senator Hale. who called attention to
the fact that Mr.. Whitney, represent
ing q great monopoly, was the dicta-
tor at the Chicago Convention of its
action. Senator Hale said that an
able lawyer like Mr.. Campbell had a
right to &C Ipt all the wealthy clients
he could 3 &. II is safe TO presume
that. if Mr.. Armour, stanch aud true
Republican as he is, should offer a re-
ta:uer to Senator Vest, the latter
could not put his Lands quickly
enough to grab it. Surely Mr.. Vest
cannot expect that such deragogism
viI attract voters to Cleveland.
