The administration and management OF our gov
eminent depends upon popular will. Federal power
is the instrument of that will-not its master.
Therefore the attempt of the opponents of Democ-
racy to Interfere with and control the suffrage of
the States through federal agencies develops de
sign, which explanation can mitigate, TO re-
verse the fundamental and safe relations between
the people and their government Such an attempt
cannot fail to DO regarded by thoughtful men as
proof of bold determination to secure the aseen-
daney of discredited party in reckless disregard of
free expression of the popular will. To resist
such scheme is an impulse of Democracy. At all
times and in all places we trust the people. As
against a disposition to force the way to federal
power we present to them our claim to their
fdence and support a steady championship of their
rights.

A question of Morals.

The struggle for unearned advantage at the doors
of the government tramples on the rights of those
who patiently rely upon assurances of American
equality. Every governmental concession to clam
orous favorites invites corruption in political affairs
by encouraging the expenditure of money to de-
bauch suffrage in support of policy directly favor
able to private and selfish gain. This in the end
must slrangle patriotism and weaken popular con-
fidenee i'll the recttude of Republican institutions
Though the subject of tariff legislation involves
question of markets, it also involves question OF
morals. We cannot with impunity permit injustice
to faint the spirit of right and equity, which is the
life of our republic and we shall fail to reach our
national destiny if greed and selfshness lead the

Decentiye Pretenses.

These pretenses should no longer deceive. The
truth is that such system is directly antagonized
by every sentiment Justice and fairness, of which
Americans are preeminently proud. 1t is also true
that while our workingmen and farmers can, the
least of all people defend themselves against the
harder home life which such tariff taxation decrees'
the workngman, suffering from the importation
and employment of pauper labor instigated by his
protested friends and seeking security for his in
terests in organized cooperation, still waits for
division of the advantages secured to his employer
under cover OF generous solictude for his wages.
while the farmer is learning that the prices of his
products are fixed in foreign markets. where he suf-
fers from competition invited and built up by the
system he is asked to support.

By some unexplained and mysteri-
Gus process of reasoning the democratic
party has arrived at the CONCLUSION
tina. Il IS the party OF the people; that
its interests are Identical with the peo-
pies welfare. Yet in 1857 the home
stead bill Was defeated In congress by q
solid democratic vote. Twice in 1889
they defeated il. In 1860 after long
struggle, it got as far az President Blu
chansn, who vetoed it. and not until
1862, when the republicans had gained
both branches of the United States con-
gress. was this blessing bestowed upon
the people. As result of this bene-
ficent measure .0e2. i6i homes, aggre-
eating in value Sis 800 900, were given
20 the people. The history of the
homestead bill has been duplicated in
every bcnefcieut measure passed by
congress since 1852. A Deprecated
currency was raised to par value by q
republican congress. Tho "dollar Of
our dads" so loudly called for by dem
ocrats was restored by republicans.
Tariff reform was q democratic cry In
1854. Yet not until 1890, when the re-
publican party WAS ia power, Was .
tariff reform measure passed. "Give
Us Tree breakfast table," WAS another
cry. A republican congress- made Il
free. Reduce the tariff was still an
other. republican congress removed
the duty on more than % per cent of

tariff on gross importAtions to Gil pei
