Tho Wilson slasi1er.

Even the Democrats in Washington
are surprised by the radical, slashinp
character Of the Wilson bill. They
should not be. The bill is constructed
to reach for the largest amount OF rove
nue.. This means the most liberal en-
couragcment to imports.
Instead OF seeking to maintain home
Industries aud create new ones it aims
10 induce the purchase Of foreign com
moditios. In SO far as it does this it is
in harmony with tho free trade decIara'
ton Of the Democratic party.
The bill is therefore what every man
asked for who voted the Democratic
ticket in 1892. Whether it is the logical
bill that was promised will appear on
closer examination than is possible to
make hurriedly.
West Virginia catches it on her so
called raw materials, which have fur
nished employment for large number
OF her people and are the hope OF the
state; and where there is manufactur
ing interest that comes in for a tire
mendous cut.
The savage assault all along the line
gives some reason to hope that the bill
may be modified out of recognition be
fore it becomes a law.

The Great Unnwed.

The Chicago Inter OCEAN has caused
members OF Congress to be interviewed
on the tariff. 1t was especially desired
to know whether the recent elections
would be regarded as new instructions
from the people, or whether the Demo-
Gratis would go on sailing by the chart
OF the Chicago platform.
Ninety-five Democrats responded, OF
these fifty-two arc classified as "unawed
by. the recent elections" These fifty!
two think Congress, being Democratic,
should go right ahead on the lines of
the latest platform declaration-abolish
protection and set up tari1.for-reve-
nae-only. This is courageous, decided
" 1t is flying in the face Of public
opinion with temerity that is start
ling.
What did the recent elections show ?
That thirty-two districts now repre-
sented by Democrats went Republican.
This would make change of sixty-four
in the political complexion OF the house
without going out of the states of Massu.
chusetts, New York, New Jersey, Penn
sylvapia, Maryland, Ohio, Illinois, Ne.
braska and Kansas. The same proper.
tionate increase the country over would
turn Congress over to the Republicans
by majority enough to take Nll the in
tercst out of the Democratic pro-
grammo.
Il may be that those Democratic con-
gressmcn who are "unawed by the re.
cent elections" ARE going to make sure
that there shall not be another Demo
cratic Congress during the life OF this
generation. The Democratic scheme
will be hard on the country, but 1t will
arouse such resentment among the
people that for many years to come the
country will know the Democratic party
as an opposition. That is its best role.

traders to Congress and then beg Con
gress, which is of the same stripe, to
