lions in the several States. 1t means the
condemnation and overthrow OF all force
bills and federal returning boards. inns

of the rates of tariff taxation and the
adiustment OF those rates So lat the
public taxes shall not rest in tn0 hrst IN
stance upon the daily necessities OF men,
but in some degree upon their wealth ana
+heir ability TO paw aad bear them. Ap-
,,Ieusa III means that the labOrer, the

iov his earnings, 50 that no law snail COM
pel him 70 divide these without return,
among the ruthless bandiu OF the tarlH
trusts and combinations. Great Applause
This great assent blaze to-day has another
signihcapce. It denies the craze OF public
expenditures and the political death ana
burial of all advocates and supporters or
that mammoth extravaganza, tue OuuOh
appropriatiOn bill; and especially IL lndl-
Gates the political O0seQules or that very
demure and reticent oilliOnist VINO resides
at present In the executive mansion AZ
Washington and who signed ana approved
the oil and without whose name ana sigma
tnre this enormous draft upon the peoples
money could never have been pald, maze or
presented. Applause
The billionists, great and small, must
perish together. They have forgotten the

Them in Judgment without mercy great ap-
plausel, and because we favor the return
Of administration Of the government TO the
line of strict economy aud the highest IN
tepritv we shall have more Of the public

allowed 6v law. The army pensions shall
be peneroufly provided for, but that the
