didates who hold office and seek from
the mass of the people the nominees
for state offices. That kind of boy

A REPUBLICAN, VIEW OF THE
TARIFF.

The American Wool and Colt onRe-
porter, edited by a protectionist,
recommends the Immediate adjust
ment of the tariff" In commenting
on the false charge that the condition
of the country last summer was attrib'
utable to a contemplated change in
the tariff, The Reporter says:
at is mistake to attribute the
paralysis which fell upon us III June,
and from which the wool and wooden
interests are still suffering, to an
anticipated change 10 the tariff at that
time. To assert this would be taking
a superficial and ignorant view, or
would be sacrificing candor for parti-
sanship. Up to the month OF June
nobody had anything to complain OF. >
From November to June last manu-
facturers had been going on
serenely without either furry
or panic, and yet The Reporter
says the manufacturers had REALIZED
full well that tariff revision in the di-
rection OF lower duties had been dis
tinctively ordered by the people at the
late election, and expected that De.
cember would be productive OF re
vised tariff bill framed according to
the Democratic platform.
The manufacturers explained that
they "felt sure in all probability a
year at least would elapse before the
revised tariff became operative, and
that during that time they would be
ample opportunity to shape
themselves to the new conditions"
This Republican specialist paper
further remarks that it was the silver
question and not the tariff that caused
the dstrust that came near resulting
in panic. 1t is rather enc ouraging
10 tariff reformers that it's former ene'
MES as well as its friends are now cry

discussions, very properly reports that
the recent elections have had no other
influence upon the Democratic ways

further and says that while many
Western Republicans favor reduc.

in the defeat by the people of the par

the people demanded radical reform
in this respect.

We will for this week at least have
a flood of conjectural reports from the
Washington correspondents on the
progress and changes in the tax bill,
but as it is impossible to predict the
adoption of any one thing, before the
public makes up it's mind on the sub
ject it had better wait until it is re-
ported to congress and the debate
opens. 1t is useless to criticize it now
as perhaps the feature objected to
may be eliminated long before it is
anything like perfect, and in a condi'
ton to take its place in the laws of
the country. However Objectionable
any kind of compromise favOring
any kind ofindustry and locality may
be, in all probability it will be impos.
sible to pass the bill without some
features of compromise that will be

their votes declared for radical
change in the whole system of reve.
