last Saturday evening he no doubt
missed what would have been the
most delightful as well as the most

our Democratic friends held their

for ten days previous to that time
arrangements were being made to
have it next in size to the election

excursionist who had just returned,

previous occurrence. The time had
arrived. The street corners, win

tops were crowded, with those anx-
ious to catch the first glimpse of the
immense csvalcade. Many imagined
that it would surpass the historic
army Of Tamerlane but alas; we were
doomed to disappointment, The ex-
element was growing intense, when
it was announced that a light was
approaching from the upper end of
town towards the public square, Sure
enough in two minutes the whole
body was down in the centre Of the
town. Their lights were too dim to

THE MESA GE ON THE TARIFF.
There was such lard slide at the
recent election as to make citizens
conjecture as to what would be
President Harrisons view of the tar
III IN his last message to Congress.
AS very careful man, as a defeated
candidate and very wise observer
OF business matters, his thoughts fo-
the best interests of our people, as
he goes out OF Office as Chief Magis-
trate are worth studying. We cul
from his message the following for
the thoughtful consideration of our
readers on the tariff question. He
said:
Il believe that the protective sys.
tenn, which has now for something
more than thirty years continuously
pevailea in our legislation, has been
a mighty instrument for the develop
ment of Our national wealth, and
most powerful agency in protecting
the homes Of our workingmen from
the Invasion of want. l have felt
most solicitious interest to preserve
for working peoples rates of wages
and would not only give daley bread
but supply comfortable margin for
those home attractions and family
comforts and enjoyments without
which life is neither hopeful nor
sweet. They are American citizens
"a part Of the great people for
whom our constitution and govern
ment were framed and instituted
and it cannot be perversion of that
constitution to so legislate as to
preserve in their homes the com
fort, independence. loyalty and
sense ofinterest in the government
which are essential to good citizen.
ship in peace and which brings this
stalvart throng, as in 1861, to the
defense of the flag when it is assail-
ed"
at is not my purpose to renew
here the argument In favor of pro.
tective tariff. The result of the re-
cent election must be accepted as
having introduced anew policy. We
must assume that the present tariff,
constructed upon the lines ofprotec-
ton is to be repealed, and there is to
be substituted for it a tariff law
constructed solely with reference to
revenue; that no duty is to be higher
because the increase will keep open
an American mill or keep up the
wages of an American workmen. but
that in every case such a rate of
duty is to be imposed as will bring
to the treasury Of the United States
the largest returns Of revenue"
I'VE have had in our history sew
eral experiences Of the coutrasted
OBJECTS Of a revenue and of protec-
tive tariff, but this generation has
not felt them, and the experience of
one generation is not highly instruc.
tive to the next. The friends of the
protective system, with undiminish-
ed confidence in the principles they
have advocated, will await the result
of the new experiment.

SAGE.

PRESIDENT HARRISONS MES
SAGE.
President Harrison appeals from
Philip drunk to Philip sober. He
appeals frsm the blindness and
misconceptions of the boar to the
deliberate judgment of history. He
does it in no acrid, resentful or
queru!o spirit, but with undaunted
courage and serene confidence. He
bows to the verdict, but he does no t
yield his convictions. His message
betrays naae of the bitterness of de-
feat but it equally shows none of the
doubt of the trimmer and none of
the hesitation of the weakline. 1t
is the calm, dignifed, worthy paper
OF the Chief Magistrate, but it is at
the same time the bold, unquailina
trumpet blast Of the beaten but I'm.
