Bismarck weekly tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1884-1943, 1893-12-08

The Chicago Inter Ocean recently
presented, in the form of interviews, the
opinions of 159 members of congress, on
the revision Of the tariff. Ninety five of
the persons interviewed were democrats
sixty we're republicans and two were
populists. The republicans stand solidly
opposed to the bill presented by the
ways and means committee. They op-
pose radical changes Of any kind, be-
lieving that such legislation tends to
disturb trade and paralyze business.
The democrats are grouped as follows:
Unawed by the recent elections, 50;
have learned moderation, IA; nothing to
say, Is; think silver the main issue. /:
want to know more about the bill, 10;
opposed to radical measures, 3. The In
ter Ocean figures that about half of the
democrats interviewed are ready to
abandon every protective feature of the
tariff. The criticism of the Wilson bill
on the part Of seventeen democrats, is
very mild, but there are a few outspoken
bourbons like Mr.. S~chermerborn of New
York, who boldly declares that he is
considerable of a protectionist. One of
the populists interviewed is too timid to
express an opinion and the other is
strongly opposed to free wool.

CONCENTRATION of the army upon the
sea coast and the frontiers is suggested
by Secretary Lamont in his report. He
says that it may be assumed that Indian
warfare is practically at an end in the
United States; that demands for the en-
ployment of the army to preserve order
within the states must become more in
frequent, as state authority. on which
that obligation properly rests, demon
strates its complete ability to discharge
it., and that in consequence the gradual
concentration of the army on the ca
coast and the frontiers is prescribed by
the conditions of the time. Any con.
siderable increase in the numbers of the
army, he says, would not meet with pop
ular favor, and is not suggested by any
contingency, immediate or remote; but
the work of fertilization at thirteen of
u large seaports, already begun or pro-
jected for the near future, renders the
conversion of a portion of the infantry
to the artillery arm a manifest necessity
OF the period directly ahead of US.

THE United States hasn't a very
formidable army. The report Of Secre-
tary Lamont shows the t,tal strength to
he 2,144 officers and 25,77S enlisted men.
The secretary recommends a reduction
Of the period of first enlistment to three
years, and the repeal of the law fixing
ten years as the maximum period of en-
listment. He also favors the prosecu-
ton of the experiment of enlistipg
Indian companies on the present scale
until its success or failure has been
proved.

WITH a view of forcing capital into
business channels the savings banks of
Chicago have decided to reduce the rate
OF interest on savings deposits on Jan. l,
1894, from 4 to 3 per cent. This reduc.
ton will undoubtedly result in the with
drawal of thousands of dollars for invest.
ment in enterprises promising a greater
return. The actiono of the savings banks
will doubtless be followed by a reduc-
ton in the rate of interest all over the
country and result in renewed activity
in real estate and all manner of business
enterprises, There is plentyo # money in
the country but 1t is idle. Capitalist
and borrower are alike timid and the
result is business and industrial etapna-

GHOST.

The leading editorial in each issue Of
the North Dakota Independent lately
sounds IN alarm to Independents to be
up and doing, to meet the "tactics of
Alex Mckenzie" who, it is alleged, is
now engaged in the task OF reupiting
the republican party in this state. The
Independent e "the evidences of a
silent hand at work to disorganlze, dis
rupt and defeat the independent move
ment in this state" and that "Mcken-
zie's quiet influence is succeeding in get
ting the republicans together" Nc
kenzie and McKenzle's ghost seems to
haunt some people in this state, con-
stantly. The fragrant misrepresentation
Of the great political worker had in a
neasur prejudiced quite a number Of
simple minded people whose in9uisi-
%tiveness was not strong enough to look
into matters and decide upon their own
impressions and Investigations, but last
winters struggle for the election OF a
United States senator in Bismarck, and
the result of that fight opened the eyes
of all loyal republicans n the state.
They found Mckenzie working night and
day, spending tin e, money and energy
for what: The election Of a repub.
lican to the United States senate-for
the election, after the failure Of the logi-
Cal candidate, Senator Casey, of any re-
publican the majority of republicans
TO the legislature-a body that Was
republican iby THIRTEEN majority on JOINT
ballot desired. He failed only through
base treachery on the part of
alleged neutrality-suspicious. who
would not agree to caucus, to
abide by a majority rule, a two-thirds
rule or any other rule. Out of the
lniquity of last winters senatorial fight
Mckenzie came forth, not flushed with
victory, but conscious OF the fact that he
lad made an honorable fight for his
party, against hopeless odds of t~reachery.
The people of this state, everywhere, un-
derstand this and the republican party,
once more coming to its senses, appreci-
ates it. Like the dog that stole the
piece of meat-all he wanted was to be
''let alone, Having elected a United
States senator and a populist admins.
tration in a republican state, the victors
in that unholy combination 20 desire to
be "let alone" They will find repub.
licans not SO easily hoodwinked next
time. They will find that the people
have been doing a little thinking for
themselves and understand very well the
mockery of the promised "reform.
purer government and good times" that
was to come from "a change"

along the line that in neither passenger
or freight traffic has the Northern Pacific
suffered, except the natural loss incident
TO business depression and competition
in rates.
The recent tour of inspection made by
representatives Of leading German bond
holders must have impressed them with
the sagacity of President Cakes in Oh
tanning and improving coast terminals
unequalled by any other line. 1t is also
surmised that in shaping the destinies OF
the road Mr.. Cakes is following his own
Judgment and not, as many suppose, the
advice OF that bold but reckless railroad
magnate. Henry Willard. 1t was the wise
and conservative management Of Mr.
Cakes that prevented the road from
going into the hands of a receiver at the
time OF the failure of MIR. Willard after
that remarkable excursion participating
III the driving Of the golden spike mark
ing the completion of the road, and the
laying of the corner stone Of North Da-
kota's capitol building at Bismarck
thus linking by the iron bands Of this
road, the capitals of all states, save one,
through which the Northern Pacific
passes.
Throughout his career with:the North
ern Pacific Mr.. Cakes has maintained
the confidence and respect of employees
as we'll as the patrons of the road, and
strikes and labor difficulties so frequent
and disastrous to other roads are un-
known on this line. The present bust.
ness depression necessitates the most
rigid economy in operating expenses, and
temporary reductions all along the line.
Uniformed people, who are prone to
criticise railroad arrangements, should
bear in mind that there are times when
great transcortinental lines like the
Northern Pacific, running through
hundreds Of miles of unsettled prairies
and depressed reproducing mountains,
are struggling, under sharp competition,
for supremacy. In the hands of the
court through its receivers, the gigantic
property of the Northern Pacific will be
kept intact, and the earnings applied
first to operating expenses, and second
to payment Of interest on bonds; and
when the clouds Of business depression
and distrust shall have passed away, the
Northern Pacific, if it's present manage.
ment is continued, will be turned over to
its owners, q stronger, more aggressive,
more permanent and better piece of prop
erty than ever, and which, because of
strategic situation, must eve maintain
its supremacy over other transcontinental
thoroughfares.

THE Wilson tariff bill is not even for
revenue" The reductions will cause a
deficit of something like $50, 1000, 900,
which sum, in order to meet the expendl.
lures OF the government, will have to be
raised in some other way. Thus the
talk of an income tax. As the provis-
ions OF the ICY bill are explained the
more opposition is discovered ever
among democrats in different parts of
the country. One thing seems certain.
We have heard the last of that senselees
cry OF "tarif for revenue only" The
bill proposed by the democrats doesn't
even provide sufficient revenue to run
the government.

RICH ROAST on DEMOCRACY

RICH ROAST ON
That the Hon. Budd Reeve of Buxton,
has abandoned all hope of receiving the
appointment of surveyor general as a re-
ward for democratic consistency and in
compliance with a numerously signed
petition, seems probable, for a recent
copy of the st. Paul Globe contains n
of those rich, rare and juicy roasts for
which Budd is famous. This time it is
the democratic party in general and Sen
ator Roach and the populists in particu-
lar that meet bis scorn. It is such good
readin'" the TRIBUNE republishes a
liberal extract as follows:
The last election is not a condemnation
Of Grover Cleveland and democracy, but an
expression Of contempt for demagOgues
and hypocrisy. When and how is this
country going to get rid Of the third party ::
The longer it is permitted to live the harder
it will be TO shake off. 1t is only political
trading stock without the respect of either
opponent. 1t shifts from one side to the
other, as it car make the most. There is

ton was notice for them to come under the
broad folds of democracy or 20 back into
the belly of the republican monopoly ana
conda, whence they came. The straight
republican or democrat you know where
TO tind--the populist you don't. A few
months & we were singing "What Shall
the Harvest Be Now we are wondering
where our harvest has gone, and if we will
ever have another. Our harvest was not
destroyed by gra%sshoppers or hail, but by
p0pulists. What have the democrats of
North Dakota gained by building up the
populists? Every inch they have raised a
populist they have taken a foot OFT their
own heads, for they have had to stoop down
to let that fellow stand on their shoulders.
Last year North Dakota led the world in
a democratic .p0pulistic reform combina-

long march in a hot sun, we closed our
eyes and dropped down ION our lknees and
drank out of a ditch by the wayslde re.
