applicable to American artists. or. at all

worthiest artists is tho very best proof OF their
practically and their businesslike qualities.
We have oh! so many rich painters and
sculptors and architects here in Now York.
They have made their money. too. BY the
practice OF their art. There are not few OF
them whose incomes range from so 900 a
year to two or three times as much as that.
They live like lords. and think nothing OF

They are kept as busy as bees. and some OF

1t Is reported that Prof. WILSON has
made "a readiustment OF certain sched-
ules " of his Tariff bill because proof was
submitted to the committee that the pro-
posed duties would work disaster to the
Industries which have been established. "
According to this report. he has. for in
stance. placed pearl and shell buttons
back practically to the present rate" which
Is equivalent to an ad valorem duty OF l46
per cent" instead OF the 40 per cent. ad
valorem in the original WILSON tariff.
This concession to protectionist argu-
ments Is in strict accordance with the pro-
tectionist principle on which the tariff is
constructed. and on that principle it is fair,
and even necessary. But in justice it must
be extended to every industry. An excep-
ton in favor OF the manufacturers of pearl
buttons would be outrageous. 1t would DO
class legislation OF the most atrocious sort,
far exceeding even 1.-THE eliminating
atrocity" of the MCKINLEY tariff
The workingnen employed in all manu-
features are justified in demanding that
their industries shall receive equivalent
protection in the protective WILSON tariff
They have the incentive To storm Congress
with protests and petitions denouncing his
bill because 1t would work disaster to
their industries" aud urging that it shall
impose duties which will be protective OF
them also. Every Democrat in Congress is
justified in refusing to vote for the
bill unless it looks after the par
ticular industries OF his district with
equal consideration. He Is Justified
in demanding that protective tariff shall
protect without discrimination. II it pro-
tects one industry. 1t must protect all that
want protection. II there is any protection
around. every industry must share In il.
II imports Of pearl buttons are taxed high
err so that the profits of the manufacturers
and the wages Of their work people may be
kept up. all other imports must be taxed
on the same principle.
Common fairness requires that this shall
be DONE and Congress cannot afford TO out
rage justice by not doing 1t. II 1t passes a
protective tariff II must make Ii generally
protective. or Ii will receive general con-
demnatiOn. IL 1t discriminates In favor of
few industries only. the Democratic party
will be Disseminated against by those en-
ployed In all other industries. II il fayors
one, it must favor all. II it satisfies one. it
must satisfy all.
That is what comes Of an attempt TO VIC
late fundamental principle. That is what
results from Prof. WILSON'S course in franz
ing an unconstitutional protective tariff in
stead of the constitutional tarifT for revenue
only, which the Democratic party promised
the people. and for which the people
voted when they put the Democracy
in control OF the Federal Govern
ment. Such treachery absolyes every
Democrat in Congress from any obligation
10 vote for the WILSON bill unless its pro-
lection is according to his individual iudg-
ment. 1t is not Democratic measure. for

ciple. Every Democrat in Congress and

tive outside Of Congress is justified in step
