ity and consistency require Us to treat
them with forbearance, and In our deal
inss with them to honestly and consid.
erately regard their rights and interests.
Every effort should be made to lead them
through the paths oil civilization aud ed
ucation to seli-supporting and independ-
ont citizenship. In tho meantime, "a

The people of the United States have
decre.d that on this day the control OF
their government III its legislative ami
executive branches sha ! he .tven To the
political party p edged in the IN 'sr posi-
tive term, to the accomplishment OF
tariff reiorm. They have thus deter
mined in favor OF more ja>t and equ'-
tapls system of ed-ral taxation. The
agents they have chosen to carry cut
their purpo es are bound by their prom
SEES, not less than by the command OF
their masters, to devote themselves un

L.sk must be undertaken wisely and
without vindictlyeness. Our mission Is
not the punishment, bat the rectlrica-

II We exact from unwilling minis al az
uuiescence in this the ny VI honest d sri
button from the hand OF the COVER mental
benshcence treasured up tor all, We but
insist upon the principle which ander'
lies our nee institutions. VII. n We tear
aside the delusion, and misconceptions
which have blinded our countrymen To
their condition under vicious tariff laws,
we but show them how far they have
been led away from the paths of con-
tsntment aud prosperity. When We
proclaim that the necessity for a revenue
to support the government furnishes the
only Justification for taxing the people,
We announce a truth 80 plain that its de
NAL would seem to Indicate the extent
To which the Judgment may DO inhl-
eneed by familiarity with the peryef'
sions OF the taxing power, and when We
seek to retnstate the selfcontidsnt BUSH
ness enterprise OF our citizens by dis
creditlng abi.ct dependence upon gov
ornamental favor, We strive to stimulate
those elements OF American character
which support the hope of American
achievement.
