ONE of Presinent Harrison
most felicitous and truthful phrases
was that in which he said that the
advocates of Free Trade were stu
dents of maxims rather than stu
dents of markets. 1t hit the nail
qeoths bead in tisb tbs peeaaftle faht RESPONSE
to the committee which informed
him of his denomination, he made
use of another epigrammatic sem
tence which has equal truth with
the one already mentioned and is
almostas deftly turned. "In 1890"
he SAID, cit was conflict of pre-
dictions; now our adversaries must
face statistics and prices current. ;"
This is another way of saying that
the "Mckinley bill scare" is an
exploded fallacy. 1t was effective
IN 1890, when the election was held
a few weeks after its enactment and
before its results could be seen:
but now that cry is old straw which
it is useless to thrash over again.
The threatened calamity has not
come. Prices have not gone up.
The country is prosperous and
everybody is happy-except the
Mugwump. Generalities, whether
glittering or other, will not work in
this campaign. Our friends the
enemy must be prepared to deal
with "trade statistics and prices

UNMASKED AT LAST.

Democrats RepudIate all Protection
and Espouse Free Trade.
Here is the portion of the tariff
plank reported by the majority of
the committee on resolutions which
the Chicago convention voted
down:
We reiterate the oft repeated doc
trines of the Democratic party, that
the necessity of the Government is
the only justification for taxation
and whenever tax is unnecessary,
it is unjustifable; that when GUS
toms house taxation is levied upon
articles of any kind produced in
this country, THE DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN THE COST OF La
Dor ABROAD, when such a diff
ference exists, fully measures any
possible benefits to labor, and the
enormous additional impositions
of the existing tariff falls with crush
ing force upon our farmers and
workingmen, and for the mere ad-.
vantage of the few whom it enrich
es, exacts from labor grossly I'M
just share of the expense of the
Government. And we demand
such a revision of the tariff laws as
willremove their iniquitous inequal-
tiles, Tighten their expressions and
put them on a constitutional and
equitable basis.
But, in making reduction in tax
es, 1T is NOT PROPOSED TO
INJURE ANY DOMESTIC IN
DUSTRIES, BUT RATHER TO
PROMOTE THEIR HEALTHY
GROWTH. From the foundation
of this government the taxes col
lected at the custom house have
been the chief source of federal
revenue. Such they must contin-
ue to be. Moreover, many indus
tries have come to rely upon legis-
latlon for successful continuance,
so that, ANY CHANGES OF
LAW MUST BE AT EVERY
STEP REGARDFUL OF THE
LABOR AND CAPITAL THUS
INVOLVED. The progress of
reform must be subject in the exc
cution to this plain dictate of JUS
| tice.
BOLD, DISGUISED FREE TRADE.
Here is the tariff plank reported
by the minority of the committee
which the convention adopted as a
substitute for the above:
We denounce Republican pro.
lection as a fraud-as robbery of a
great majority of the American
people for the benefit of few.
WE DECLARE II TO BE A
FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLE
OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY
THAT THE GOVERNMENT
HAS NO CONSTITUTIONAL
POWER TO IMPOSE AND COL
LECT A DOLLAR FOR TAX
EXCEPT FOR PURPOSES OF
REV ENUE ONLY, and demand
that the collection of such taxes be
imposed by the government when
only honestly and economically adj
ministered.
ANOTHER OF THE SAME SORT.
Here is an extract from the con-
stitution of the Confederate States
which, as will be seen, is as like
the Chicago Democratic declaration
as two peas:
The Congress shall have power
to collect taxes, duties, impost and
excuses for revenue, necessary to
pay the debts. provide for the
common defense, and carry on the
Government of the Confederate
States; but no bounties shall be
granted from the treasury, nor
shall any duties or taxes on impor-
tations from foreign countries be
land to promote or foster any

He was elected in 1884 and served
as president from March 4, 1885, to
March 4, 1889. The circumstan-

well known to the people of the
United States, and it is not neces-

when Mr.. Cleveland was a candi-

/ Fifty years ago there was much better
chance for men TO obtain Office than there
is at the present time. 1t is fact that
men like TO be promoted. A. that time
there were the Vermont militia compa-
MES and they had their different officers.
Each company had captain, three lieu
tenants, four corporals and a sergeant. AT
that time there were great many more
town offices to be filled. There were the
highway surveyors, some 10 or 20; and
now the adjustment of the district sys-
TEN Of schools will deprive something like
a hundred persons in Barnard of holding
offices. Each district had its moderator,
clerk, committee, three auditors, treas
urer and collector. Our lawmakers, es-
pecially those of the last session, have made
sad havoc among officeholders. None OF
these officers received any compensation
for their services; but they had the honor,
which is more important to some than
money. The school district meetings that
we once enjoyed, after the first OF April
will he something belonging to the past.
Fond recollections of these district school
meetings will remain with maBy as long
as life shall last. There some great orator
made his first little speech. These minor
Offices in which men have served without
compensation may have been stepping
stones to more important offices. The cor
poral of militia company may have been
made major general. The highway sur
veyor may have become an engineer or a
road commissioner, and the moderator of
a school meeting, town representative or
representative in congress. Men seldom |
obtain the more important offices without |
first serving in a smaller Office. II APP |
pears now that all non paying offices are |
abolished and that any person holding an |
office shall receive some compensation |
Many compensations are fixed by State
law ana Others can be adjusted by the |
towns. This is progressive age.
