TARIFF TAXATION.

Sec. 3. We denouuce Republican pro-
lection Ms q fraud. The robbery OF the great
majority OF the American people for the
benefit Of The lew. We declare it to be a
fundamental principle OF the Democratic par
ty that the Federal Government has no cor
3titutioDal power to impose and collect tariff
duties, except for the purposes OF revenue
only, and We demand that the collection Ct
such taxes shall be limited to the necessities
Of the Government gaen honestly and econ
omlcally administered.
We denounce the Mckinley tariff law en-
acted by the Filty-6rst Congress us the cul
mpating atrocity Of class legislation; We in.
dogse the efforts made by the Democrats Of

reeslvale@tures in the direction OF free raw
materials and cheaper manufactured goods
that enter into general consumption, snd we
promise It's repeal Us one Of the benefcent
results that will follow the action Of the
people in ntrusting powerto the Democrat
ic party. Since the Mckinley taLif went
into operation there have been ten Ie5uc-
tions Of the wages OF laboring men TO one
increase. We deny that there has been any
increase of properly to the country since
that tariff went into operation; we point to
the dullnoss and distress which wage reduc-
tions and strikes in tie iron trade as the
best possible evidence that no such pros
perity has resulted from the McKinley act.
we call the attention of thoughtful Amer
leans to the fact thai after thirty years Of
restrictive taxes against the importation OF
fereign wealth in exchange for our agr.cul-
turai surplus the homes and farms of the
country have become burdened with real
estate mortgage debt Of over So 600,000,0 900
exclusive OF all other forms Of indebted
ness; thai in one Of the chief agricultural
States Of the West there appears real es-

private w. l.. Iams against Col. Streator
ct oil. was continued this morning. Major.
general George X. Snowden appeared in
the courtroom for the first time since the
opening of the trial. He was naturally
the object Of great amount of interest,
not alone for his connection with the case,
but Tor his prominence as commander of
the State army which restored civil gov
ernment at Homestead after the riots had
given way TO mob rule. Ex-private Iams
was put on the stand again and asked
where he performed the picket duty on the
positive that he did perform picket duty
OH the night before he went to Sleep On

make the suits after he was discharged.
Frank q. Jacobs was the next witness for
the prosecution. He was private of Com

officer of the day gave him n chew. Iams
aske d for it. Almost Immediately before

longer 1t might injure him physically.
When Iams was cut down he sank to the
ground. Witness did not hear Iams say:
"When Colonel SIreator gets through
amusing himself he will cut me down"
He had heard lems say: IF Streator ex-
poets me to take back what said he can

quest of the defense that Ians be asked
whether it was bis inten tion, in case be se-
cured the conviction of any one of the de-
PENDANTS. to Institute civil suit for DAM
0ges. He replied that it was. The court
said il was not q proper question under the
law. but was permissible at tho discretion
of the court, to show the jury bias on the
part of the witness, who is also tho prose-
cutor.
John II. GLADDEN.. the nurse who revived
1ams. and who the prosecution depends the
most upon. then took the stand. He had
seen them take Ioms aud tie him MP by the
thumbs. but only watched the proceedings
for ten minutes, as the sight sickened him.

was ont down and tainted. He admins.
tered whisky and ammonia upon Instruc-

left here for New York. about two weeks
ago. with bonds and other securi-
ties on his person amounting to
about s75,COo. He stated to his attor-
ney that he would return in time
for the trial, but to-day the case was sent
