TARIFF TAXATION.

Sec. 3. We denounce Republican pro-
lection as 9 fraud. The robbery OF the great
n,ici;ty OF the American people for the
benefit of the few. We declare it to be a
fundamental principle Of the Democratic par
" that the Federal Government has no cone
,ttutional power to impose and collect tariff
luties, except for The purposes OF revenue
only. and we demand that the collection o.
such taxes shall be limited to the necessities
Of the Government Wtea honestly and econ
omcally administered.
We denounce the Mckinley tariff law On
acted by the Fity-frst Congress as the cul
minating atrocity Of class iegislationj we in
dorse the efforts made by the Democrats OF
the present Congress 10 modify its most OPP
presslve features in the direction Of free raw
materials and cheaper manufactured good
that enter into general consumption, and we
promise its repeal as one of the bonefcant
results that will follow the action Of the
people in ntrusting power to the Democrat
ic party. Since the Mckinley tariff went
into operation there have been ten leduc-
tions of the wages of laboring men TO one
increase. We deny that there has been aoy
increase Of property TO the country since
that tariff went into operation; we point to
the dullness and distress which wage reduc-
tions and strikes in tue iron trade as the
best possible evidence that no such pros
perity has resulted from tho Mckinley act
we call the attention OF thoughtful Amer
leans to the fact tina after thirty years OF
restrictive taxes against the importation Of
fereign wealth in exchange for our agrcul-
tura surplus the homes and farms OF the
country have become burdened with a rea rev
estate mortgage debt of over $2 800, 100000
exclusive OF all other forms of indebted
ness; that in one of the chief agricultural
States Of the West there appears real es-
tate mortgage debt averaging Sl55 per cap
tia OF the total population; and that similar
conditions and Tenderness are shown to eust
in the other agricultural exporting States

FORMING ON NEW LINES.

A Washington dispatch says that there is
talk OF forming party issues on new lines.
The so-called force bill is TO be put aside
and modification of the party's position
on the tariff is also urged. The Republican
party has not won its past victories by a
change OF policy in the event of defeat 1t
has lost control of the House Sc veral times.
but has never abandoned its principles So
far as the force bill is concerned there Is
none. There were defects in the bill that
was before the last Congress for which a
more careful consideration OF the subject viii
find remedy. The principle of the demand
for Federal supervision of the elections of
Federal officers is right. Congress owes it
to the people of the States in which there
are fair elections to see that their represen-
tatiyes are not outnumbered by representa-
tives from States in which but one class of
the people are allowed to vote. In the end
this principle will assert itself. If the Re-
publican party abandons its position in the
face of defeat some other organization will
take it up. The New York Sun, which
made its principal fight against Harrison
on the force bill issue. now says:
The most urgent duty before the party is the
repeal OF the partisan Republican laws on the
subject OF supervision OF elections, passed in
second Congresses They must be wiped out
utterly and finally; and until this has been ac-
compllshed, and The control OF all elections has
been restored TO the States, the Democratic
party must not pause for rest or sleep.
This Is somewhat sweeping platform. 1t
is practical renewal of the States rights
theory in its worst form. 1t is a proposition
TO shut our eyes to the dsfranchisement
of citizens in any State which chooses to
disfranchse them. 1t is an abandonment
Of the right to enforce a constitutional
right. The Southern States now have 133
members Of the lower and twenty-six Of
the upper house. The 1873 members of the
lower house are in most cases elected by
the white voters, and the twenty-six Sena-
tors are elected by Legislatures elecled by
white voters. We have thus a solid body
of 159 legislators who vote as unit on
questions at Issue between parties in the
North. 1t will not be contended that ma
jority of these 159 legislators are elected by
majority of the legal voters of their sew
eral election districts. And yet they are
serving In body to determine competitive
policies before the people of the entire ma
ton. They will be behind the newly
elected President in any attempt he must
make to enforce his policy of free trade.
The Republicans never won any battles
while retreating. The old spirit and pur-
pose will animate the party in proportion
as it stands up for the constitution as it
has been amended.
The morning call., 1892-11-18
KILLING COMPETING RAILROADS.

The Chronicle has been taught nothing
by the election. 1t does not comprehend
the expression of the popular vote which
took the control Of the Legislature out of
the hands of the Republican party. 1t
fails TO see that district after district in
which there was a substantial Republican
majority elected Democrats because tho
Republican candidates were believed TO be
pledged to vote for railroad candidate for
Senator, and in other ways to aid the
Sou hern Pacific Company to hold the State
in commercial and political bondage. The
latest trick of the railroad organs is TO mis-
represent the condition of the San Fran
cisco and Salt Lake Railroad. Unfounded
stories have been put in circulation to the
effect that the project had been given up.
The cause was attributed to the unwilling
ness oil San Francisco capitalists TO invest
money in anything but twenty-dollar pieces.
A little inquiry shows that there is no
other foundation for these reports than that
the Southern Pacific would like TO have
them true. The Chronicle and its evening
tender apparently received orders from rail-
road headquarters to give the Salt Lake
enterprise black eve. The managers of
the Salt Lake project have taken great care
ID hold the stock in hands friendly to the
purpose of the road. Subscription books
have not been open to indiscriminate Invest
ments. 1t would 90 the road no good to
procure the s.. 100000. as the company are
represented as wanting from parties who
would throw obstacles in the way of the
completion Of the road. While il will read
lily be admitted that Huntington and Stan
ford are not much in the habit of investing
their own money in railroad enterprises,
they might find it to their interest to invest
million or two in an attempt to kill one.
