-Misconstruing the language used in

ing Editor Moore with casting refec-
tions on The REPUBLICANS makeup. ="

man on the Chicago, Milwaukee & St.
Paul railway between Milwaukee and

future home at Portage. Their many

| We find that the campaign of edu-
cation is not yet ended, and that The
Gazette is still founderjng around in
the mazes of political ignorance, so that
we have yet duty to perform Per
NIT us to suggest, therefore, to The Ca
zette that it is not the Pennsylvania
Railroad company which has put its
iron grasp on the anthracite coal mar
ket, but the Reading Railroad compa-
ny, and that the nominal duty on soft
coal has nothing whatever to do with
the advance in price of hard coal
There is no connection between the
two. If The Gazette s theory is correct
that the tariff fosters trust, then there
should be soft coal trust, because Oh
soft coal there is duty. and there
should be no trust on hard coal, which
is duty free. The Gazette's argument
does not hold good. In free trade En-
gland there are trusts more extensive
in number and volume than there are
in the United States, which shows that
the tariff is in no wise responsible for
them.
