EFFECT OF DEMOCRATIC RULE.
What the Threat of Free Trade Has Do

What the Threat of Free Trade Has Done.
From the Philadelphia Enquirer.
Last fall we were solemnly assured that
existing conditions were ruinOus, and that
the country wanted change. The major
ity of the people seemed to be of that Opin-
ion. Well, the change has come, and here
are some of the details of the change:
Depreciation of $4,000, 000, 200 in the
value of American securities.
All the plate glass factories In America
shut down for an indefinite period.
Blast furnaces banking fires every day in
the week, curtailing the output of pig iron
enormously.
Textile mills of all sorts in New England
either shutting down or preparing to do so.
All the large iron mines in Michigan
districts shut down or running with short
force.
Wool at the lowest figure ever known.
Wheat at the lowest price in two genera
tons.
Balance of foreign trade heavily against
us.
Money tied up in vaults and banks with
no accommodations to any but regular
customers, and few new loans of any kind.
More men out of work than at any time
since the panic of '73.

| that danger and distress, and by no means
to cripple the merchants, stop the wheels OF
manufacture, distress the farmer and reduce
the workingman's wages. The danger
comes from this Chicago plank: We de-
nounce the Republican policy of Protection
as a fraud. We declare il to be
fundamental principle of the Democratic
party that the Federal Government has no
| power to impose and collect Tariff duties.
except for the purposes of revenue only.
| We denounce the Mckinley Tariff law
|. as the eliminating atrocity of class
peal It is this principle N Of f the President
| and his associates controlling Congress
| which is working the terrible result he de-
picts. He should speak in loud and unmis-
taxable terms concerning the Tariff policy OF
his party. Is the above pledge to destroy all
Protective laws and to repeal the Mckinley
bill to be carried out or not? Let us know
the worst or the best. If 1t is not, the crisis
will be easily averted, the factory wheels
will continue to revolve, the merchant and
farmer will prosper and the present high
wages will continue"
This is the whole case tersely stated.
No treating of the currency as inconsequent,
but going to the vital center to find the root
and cause of the disorder, to ignore which
is sore sickness, to recognize and remove
which is health.
His remedy is heroic. Will President
Cleveland stand up and speak out like a
hero, or will he be the cringing tool of the
Solid South and be trampled under the
hOOfs of the wild cattle of the fierce DemOc-
racy, blind and mad for Free Trade?
Increased imports and debts abroad are
the least Of the evils before us. Home
industries employing millions of our people,
and producing thousands of millions yearly,
are to be stabbed, and every farmer and
carpenter and bricklayer, every artisan and
labOrer, every working man and woman
are to feel the daggers' thrusts first and
most keenly.
Fix the currency question on the best
possible basis tomorrow, and leave the
Free-Trade element to run, not under the
guise of Tariff Reform, and there might he
a transient alienation; but the cancer would
still gnaw at the vitals and disease would
soon break out in forms worse than now
Leave the currency just as it is, with all
its faults, alleged or real, and let it be
known that the Mckinley Tariff is t. stand
for five years, and the cancer is extrpated.
the pain and paralysis are healed, the wheels
of industry move cheerily and confidence
brings hope and prosperity.
The strong word of the Senator from the
old Granite State is welcome. 1t is in
accord with the word of the American
Economist.
Let all remember that the Tariff is the
Uttdl issue, and that only Protection can
remove the cancer.

NOTHING TO KICK ABOUT.
State Taxes Will be no Higher Than
Usual This Year.

usual IhiS Year.
From the State Republican.
State Accountant TOmpkins is at present
busily engaged with long columns of figures
preparing the state tax levy for the years
1884,. Notwithstanding the very liberal
appropriations made by the legislature for
the several state institutions, the tax levy
this year will not be much In excess of
either of the two years of democratic rule.
The total appropriations made by the
legislature aggregate So, 594, sS9. 46, $2,O64,-
21.13 for 1898 and s1,529, 91s.S3 for 1894.
For 1898 the tax levy will be 81, 925, 600,
and for 1894, 81, $50, 900 in round numbers.
In 1891 1t was 81, s4S, 449.61, and that year
the democratic administration received from
the general government $500, ZOO, and
besides the democrats reduced the treasury
surplus 100000. In 1889 the levy was
81, 1871, 521.10, and in 1887, $1,95O,OOO, so.
comparing the legislative years and taking
into consideration the great growth and
development of the state, the taxpayers
have no kick coming.

The man who owns newspaper, the
man who writes for newspapers, and the
man who reads newspapers, will each alike
find the newspaper discussed from his point
of view in the August number of The For
um. There has, perhaps, never before been
published in so prominent way the inside
facts about the life and the work of news
paper writers as are set forth in the most
straightforward manner by Mr.. j. W. KEEL
Ter, President of The New York Press Club.
Every man that wishes to enter journalism
ought to read this account of the actual ex-
perience that awaits him. Mr.. G. X. Miller,
the editor of the New York Times, points
out the unreasonabeness of much of the
current criticism of the press, and shows
what great service 1t really does. Mr..
John Gilmer Speed, by series of tables,
shows how the proportion of gossip has been
widely increased in late years, especially I'm
the New York newspapers. and the proper
ton of important news decreased, and he
asks IL the newspapers do now really give
the news. These articles present an inside
view of journalism with frankness and
fullness that is perhaps unprecedented.

Detroit Journal: 1t begins to look as
though the democrats at Washington had
entered upon the work of repeating the Nc
Kinley law in very peculiar manner. The
ruling of the treasury department, changing
the classification of certain grades of wool
with view to lowering the duty thereon,
indicates the way they have chosen. Per-
haps they think they can make all the nec-
essary amendments in this way and thus
save democratic congress the trouble and
embarrassment of making square, open
fight against the law. The present attack
is simply fire in the rear.

TARIFF AND CURRENCY.
Strong Words of Senator Chandler.
From the American Economist.

From the American Economist.
In the New York Tribune Of the Sd is a
letter from Senator Chandler of New Hamp-
shire, stating clearly and ably the cause of
the present grave troubles in the business
world. He says, what has been said con-
stantly in the American Economist, that the
Tariff, and not the currency, is the vital
question-both important. but the first lying
at the foundation of our difficulties, and
threatening increased peril unless promptly
met and settled.
The Senator says he shall vote for the re-
peal of the SHERMAN Act of $780," which
was passed, he says, not as the best measure,
but as compromise to prevent something
worse, and then continues as follows:
But what has this question to do with the
pending commercial and financial crisis
which will pass into history as 1.-The Cleve-
land panic of 1882" The Government will
nominally lose something for the time being
by its purchase of silver, but the price will
undoubtedly rise again before 1t disposes of
the metal. Meantime, the currency Of five
or six millions of dollars month, which the
Treasury issues, increases the volume of cur
rency i'm circulation and tends to prevent
stringency i'm the money market and to avert.
and not to cause, commercial and financial
distress.

NOT DUE TO THE SILVER LAW.


1t is a folly and an absurdity to ascribe
the present suffering in manufacturing cir
Giles to the silver law of 1890 and clamor for
its repeal as If that would have the slightest
affect in removing the troubles which are
even now upon the country, and will con-
tinue to multiply as the months roll on.
The distrust and misaprehension which.
indeed, truly have already caused great loss
and damage to our people, and threaten to
cripple our merchants, stop the wheels of
manufacture, bring distress and privation to
our farmers and withhold from our work.
ingmen the wages of labor, exist not at all
because the Treasury buys each month A.
500. 900 ounces of silver bullion instead of
coming 2,O00,O 900 silver dollars, but they
come solely and entirely from the cleo
ton of Grover Cleveland and a majority of
the two houses of Congress upon platform
and pledge that the Mckinley act shall be
repealed, and that all laws for the Protec-
ton of American industries against foreign
competition shall be deemed unconstitutional
and revoked and annulled.
Mr.. Cleveland and his party have brought
on the panic and will not be allowed to es-
cape the weighty responsibility. No manu-
facturer dares look forward year to the
continuous revolution OF his factory wheels,
but widespread stoppage of manufactures
is sure to take place. The merchant and
the farmer will suffer with the manufact-
urer; while the wages of all kinds of labor
are beginning to go steadily downward; all
as Republicans predicted would be the re-
suit IL Grover Cleveland and a majority of
both houses of Congress should be elected
upon the Chicago platform of 1892. AS
men SOW so shall they also reap. Verify
the retribution has come quickly.
For this state of affairs the only remedy is
pointed out in these strong words:
There Is but one safe and sure way for
relieving our present commercial and 6nan-
cial troubles and for averting the worse
calamites which are threatening us, and
that Is the frank, open, public and uncon-
ditonal recantation by President Cleveland
and the leaders of the Democratic party of
their destructive and damnable declaration
of warfare against the American Tariff sys-
tenn.
"Let President Cleveland and the Demo-
cratic leaders speak. and the panic may be
averted and terminated.

announced purpose that the people shall be
relieved from present and impending dan
ger and distress be achieved. The Silver
