WASHINGTON, Nov. 27.-The Democrat,
members of the ways and means com
mittec of the House of Representative
nave done their duty under the Chicago
platform and the pledges made to TIL
people in the last Presidential campaign
They have reported Tariff bill that viii
completely do away with the iniquitou
class legislation of the Mckinley act, an,
does not use the power of the government
for the enrichment of the favored con
tributors to campaign funds. 1t levie
taxation for the proper and constitutions
purpose of supporting the government
and at the same time and incidentally T.
this taxation it affords sufficient protectio
to American industries to make up for tn
difference between cost of labor here an
abroad, but not enough to enrich tn
manufacturer under the guise of raising
revenue for the support of the govern
ment. As the Mckinley bill had in viey
the prosperity Of the specially favore
classes, so the Wilson bill has in view tn
prosperity of the entire people.
The bill will call forth criticism, as
matter of course. ALI such attacks will nc
be from the Republican side, as man
Democrats who are influenced by specia
interests will find fault with the way i
which the protective tariff as conducting
|, their interest has been slashed. The Trainer
of the bill have done much to dissrr
Democratic criticism, however, by thei
consistent and unseltish action when
came to matters in which they and thei
constituents were directly interested. The
sacrificed their individual interests for til
general good, and set an example tina
| every man who stood upon the Democrats
platform last year should follow.
Chairman Wilson led in this movemer
by voting to put coal on the free list an
, subject the mines OF his State (West Vii
ginia) to the contingencies of competitio
of coal from foreign mines. Mr.. Steven
of Massachusetts, representing woole
!, manufacturers and himself a manufai
/ turer of woolens, voted to modify the pre-
hibitory tariff on all wooden goods, Nj
Iarsney, representing the lead-minin
interests of Southwestern Missouri, vote
to put silver lead ores oil the free list an
to reduce the duty on lead and lead ore
: Mr., Bryan Of Nebraska, representa-
growers of beet sugar, voted to reduce til
duty on refined sugar and to cut down til
bounty on domestic sugars by one-eight
each year until it is entirely wiped out
and Mr.. Whiting of Michigan, whose Stat
is interested in the production of salt an
lumber. voted to put these articles on tn
free list. Other members of the committe
, voted to reduce the protection on article
, in which they were specially interested.
With this object-lesson before ther
there is little excuse for Democrats to Tin
fault with the bill because some littl
thing in which some of their people al
interested has not been taken care of I
the detriment of the general welfare.
