we should strive TO rid ourselves and
our countrymen Of the idea that there is
anything shabby or disgraceful in
economy, whether in public or private
iiie. II extravaganza in public expendi-
lures has prevailed in the past it affords
no excuse Tor its continuance, and there
Is no breach of duty so palpable as the
waste OF money held by public servants
Tor the peoples uses. Our government
was founded in a spirit of frugality and
economy, and its administration should
not depart from those lines. We need
no glitter nor show to divert our people
from turbulent thoughts. Cleveland.
Mr.. Cleveland was utterly unavailable.
This was the view of the so-called prac.
tical politician. He smiled disdainfullv
at the political idealism of those who
believed Mr.. Clevelands election uossi-
BILE. But it turned out, as it often does
that the political idealist was far the
more practical politician of the two. The
professional had made a characteristics
mistake. He had indeed, estimated the
spirit of the rascals correctly; but he
had underestimate the number and
spirit of the honest men. He had Judged

labor to find market for its consump-

ducts of our labor and market them in
the world without we are permitted to
bring back the things for which these
products are exchanged We
should untax coal and most of our
metals. We should untax Dig metal
bar metal, plate metal, blooms. slabs
billets, metals in coil metals in hoops-
all these. Why should we tax them?
Our promise is that we will not protect
anybody against competition. We must
untax wool, hemp, jute, flax and all the
hbres; we must take the tax from oils
and dyes we must take the tax from
machinery. In other words. we must
place the American laborer in that con-
nition in which alone the skill and pro.
ductiveness, which are superior to any
other laborer in the world, will permit !
him to work, and in the markets of the
world to obtain that mastery to which !
his own genius and skill eutitle him.
