No straddIIno.

The most encouraging sign Of the
present campaign, the most favora-
BILE omen OF victory, was the enthu-
siasm with which the National Con-
vention advanced tariff reform MS the
issue upoil which the battle shall be
fought. With such men as Villas and
Jones on the platform committee il
seems strange that a single sentence
capable of misinterpretation should
have weakened the platform, yet the
tariff resolutions, the very foundation
Of the democratic structure, were a
straddle pure and simple, susceptible
to any construction that might con-
from to the taste Of any particular
locality.
Fortunately for the country and
party, the weak point was discovered
in time. AS the platform now reads
tho fght will be made on the princi-
Piles that SO disastrously routed the
republicans in 1890.
Section 8 of the original resola-
tions read as follows: t4fl
awe reiierate the oft repeated
doctrines OF the democratic party,
that the necessity Of n government
is the only justification for taxation
and whenever a tax is unnecessary
it Is unjusti6able. that when Gus
tom house taxation is levied upon
articles Of any kind produced In this
country, the difference between the
cost Of labor here and labor abroad,
~hen such difference exists, fully
measures any possible benefit TO
labor and the enormous additional
impositions Of the existing tariff fall
with crushing force upon our farm
ers and workingmen, and for The
mere advantage OF the few whom II
enriclies, and exacts from labor
grossly unjust share Of the expenses
Of the government; and we demand
such a revision of the tariff laws as
Will remove their ubiquitous ine-
qualities, tighten their expressions
and put them on constitutional
and equitable basis. But in making
reduction in taxes, II il not pro
posed TO injure any domestic indus
tries, but rather TO promote their
healthy growth. From the iounda-
tion Of this government the tax col
lected at the custom house has been
the chief source of The federal rev.
enue. Such 1t must continue 10 be.
Moreover many industries have
come 10 rely upon legislation for
successful continuance, 50 that any
change Of the law must be at every

ital thus involved. The process OF
reform must be subject in its exer-
ton TO this plain dictate Of justice. 2

The politicians at Washington
were largely opposed 10 Mr. Cleve-
lands nomination. While the ma
jority stiAed their disappointment
and were ready to shout for the
ticket, a few lost their temper and
gave vent to rather incolisiderale
uiterances. For instance, Colonel
Hooker is reported 10 have voiced
his anger in this style: "Well,
certain parties in New York have
forced Mr.. Cleveland on the party,
and as with New York he can be
elected why let them elect him.
On its face this declaration looks
like Col. Hooker is not ready to do

When the Convention re assembled

was the effort Of his life. Not a

scored reciprocity as retaliation
upon our people for the necessities

republican doctrine of protection by

Conrad Reichenbecker's Version of

Ex-Poormaster Reichen becker appeared
in Police Justice O'Donnen's court this
morning as witness against Frederick
Cordts. the young German accused of
stabbing Saloon Keeper Peter Treiber, in
front of the latter's saloon at No. 239
Newark avenue on the night of July 4.
The eX-Poormaster, who refused to ap-
pear until subpenaed, told quite thrill
ing story. He said that Cordts, VINO
came into the saloon drunk, began abus-
lpg the Emperor William. Words be-
tween Treioer and Cordts led to blows
and finally Treiber put Cordts out
of the saloon. Some time
later Treiber went outside to
arrange his shutters before closing for
the night. The witness heard scuff1e
on the pavement ana a few moments
later, Treiber staggered back into the
saloon crying "My God. l am stabbed,
go for doctor quick" Blood was flow
ing from a wound in his back. Reichen-
becker said he started Immediately for q
doctor, but just after be left the saloon
he encoun tered Cordts with blood
stained knife in his hands.
Cordt's exclaimed" He blackened
both my eyes, but I've fixed him." Reick-
enbecker said he grabbed Cordts, who
threatened to do him up. Patrolman
Coolihan came up and arrested Cordts.
Treiber was confined to his bed for sew
eral days.
Police Justice O'Donnell this morning
held Cordts for the Grand Jury in $500.
