Brother Boies Takes Iowa Ont OF tho
Union for the Campaign.

Tho Hon, HORACE BoIEs, Governor OF
Iowa, began his third campaign with a
speech at Grundy Centre last Saturday.
He declined all national issues. and as
serted that the issues In Iowa this year
are local, namely: the insincerity OF the
Republicans In abandoning prohibition.
and the necessity Of some sort OF
non-partsan State Board Of Charities and
Correction. He said that the tariff was
not partisan question. was not In issue
between the parties. and could have no
place in the State politics OF Iowa. because
the result OF the Iowa election could not
affect tariff legislation.
This Is what 1t is to be Democrat. how
ever able and earnest. in Republican
state where you are looking for election
by means OF Republican votes. II there
Is any question moro partisan than the
tariff, we should like to know what it is.
College professors may be able to view the
tariff under the air pump OF abstraction. but
the majority OF men cannot look at 1t In
that way. We have passed the days OF
humbug non-partisan tariff commissions.
A Republican is protectionist. and
Democrat an enemy of protection, by
the mere force Of the terms. While the
Democrats are skinning protection. and
protection Is setting up its last howl. MIR.
BoIEs kindly invites the Iowans to consider
that the tariff is non-partisan non-issue.
For the purposes Of tho campaign, Iowa Is
to be an independent nation. reservation
such as the Brooklyn Mugwumps dream OF.
into which the noise OF the political captains
and the shouting at Washington and else
where cannot penetrate.
As to the result OF the Iowa election hay
ing no effect upon tariff Legislation at
Washington, Governor BoIEs is right
enough but he puts himself into an unfor-
tunate position. His defeat. IL he be de-
feated. will be attributed by the Republi-
cans to a reelection in favor OF protection.
The more eager he is to avoid discussing
national issues. the moro eager will they be
to discuss them. In 1892 Iowa showed
itself to be still faithful to the uncon-
etitutlonal tariff. 1t gave o great plu-
rality for the eliminating atrocity OF
class legislation. VIII Mr.. BoIES. who
has worked so hard in former cam
paigns for tariff reform. cam paigna too. IN
which there was no chance that the result
in Iowa would affect tariff legislation at
Washington. will Mr.. BoIEs let the MAORI
ty Of his fellow citizens in Iowa continue in
their delusion and ignorance? How can he
resist the opportunity OF instructing them
as to the iniquity Of protection and the
blessings OF the tariff for revenue only?
Governor Bo1Es is man of capacity and
thoughtfulness, yet he throws away this
great opportunity Of converting Iowa and
bringing 1t into the fold Of the unprotected
sheep. He gives to Grundy Centre what
was meant for the nation. Such Is the diff
Guilty that may beset Democratic candl-
date In q Republican State.
