DEMOCRATIC RESPONSIBILITY:

Where the Blame Cor the ReteRtiOn Of
the sherman Act Belongs.
A few months ago the democrats were
pouring the walls of their wrath upon
the Mckinley tariff. tin plate espe-
cially, but now nothing of that kind is
heard. Every mishap is chargeable
upon the Sherman act. That law has
been in operation three years, or, to be
more exact, thirty-five months 1t was
not until the democratic party came
into power that it became the fashion
to hold it responsible for the ills the
country is heir to. If it should be re-
pealed what would take its place as a
scapegoat?
1t was June %, 1892, that the national
democratic convention denounced 1.-The
republican legislation known as the
Sherman act of 1890 as q cowardlv
make-shift fraught with possibilities Of
danger in the future which should make
all of its supporters as well as its author
anxious for its speedy repeal" and the
next winter large majority of the re-
publicans in congress voted for its re-
peal, thus saying in effect to the demo-
cracy: Very we'll, if you think so, let
it be wiped out before your party comes
back into power. The democratic
party was not responsible for the
original passage of the act, but is re-
sponsible for its retention. The de-
mand for its speedy repeal was con-
Cured in by the republican party. The
truth is that the anti-Sheriman act
plank of the democratic platform was
a gigantic bluff, and when called the
clustering buffer backed down and
sneai;ed out of the game.
1t is customary to charge that silver
has steadily declined in market value
ever since the Comstocil mine with it's
bonanza was fairly opened, except that
there was brief increase in value
r;gi: after the Sherman act went into
eject. From this it is argued that
there is an over supply of silver. The
fact is. on the contrary, that silver was
actually higher in October. 1854, than
it had been in October, 1878. This
shows that knowledge that party
dominated il its political economy by
British ideas had been given control of
the government produced depressing
effect upon the value of silver. BY the
time Harrison was elected silver had
declined about seventeen per cent, but
with his election the price began to go
up. His defeat in 1892 had worse eff
feet even than the election of Cleveland
in 1854. These are stubborn facts for
the democracy. and no amount of out
Cry against the Sherman act can oblit-
crate them.
The republicans in congress may be
relied upon to support any measure
having promise of bettering the condi-
ton of the country. irrespective of
strictly political considerations. Mr..
Cleveland will not be hampered and
by a captious opposition from
the minority party. There is reason to
believe that his hesitation to call con-
rress in special session is due to dis
trust of his own party, and not of the

But that was not a matter for the

The Democracy Needs to Find Out
Where 1t Is AT"
The New York Sun, the all-wool-
yard-wide authority of the simon-pure
Jaclssonian democracy, has struck the
right idea. The Sun says: IF the
general opinion of the party at the
present time is that the tariff plank of
1892 was mistake: that protection is
not unconstitutional; that protection is
no: robbery: that customs duties may
be imposed and collected for other
purposes than revenue; that the expert
ment outlined in the conventions reso-
luton is impracticable; then, the only
honorable way out of the difficulty is
to have the democratic national COM
mittee call another convention of the
party, with full representative status
and authority, and to have the new
convention rescind the resolution of
1872
The national platform adopted by
the democratic party at Chicago calls
for the repeal of the Mckinley bill and
The Sherman silver act. the free coin
age of cart wheel silver dollars and the
institution of state bank currency.
Grover Cleveland ignores all of these
party demands except the repeal of the
Sherman act, and has delayed so long
in making up his mind about that that

Party organs charge administrative de-
lay and uncertainty with cutting down
stock values seven hundred million dol
lars and farm produce values one hun
bred million dollars. Under such con
ditions it seems to be not only wisdom,
but party necessity, to call the party
together in convention once more that
it may gather together its scattered and
dist,eveiled ideas.
The loud-voiced champions of tariff
reform can rise no higher now than to
ask for sugar tax. The thunders Of
democratic eloquence that once were
wont TO shake the hills with the atroci-
ties of the Mckinley bill died away
these many moons ago. BY all means

Ability of the Republican Party to Cop
with New Issues.

Ability of the Republican Party to Cope
with New Issues.
The Washington Post, in joining in
the criticism which assailed the Louis
vile speech of Gen. GARRISON, ridiculed
the idea that the republican party shall
accept any new issues, and intimated
that its only chance of success is in
waiting to take advantage of the blum
ders of the democrats.
There is no reason why the republic
an party should not accept new issues.
if new issues shall come to the front.
In doing so the party will abandon none
of the positions it already holds. 1t will
maintain, so long as it exists, the
principles of protection to American
industry. of a sound currency. and of
equal rights to all men. But rc?nb-
licanism means progress. 1t is in
bravely. intelligently and patriotical-
" meeting the questions with which
the democracy is incompetent to deal
that the republican party will find its
early restoration to power and rcspon-
sibility.
The republican party has never won
victories solely by the blunders of its
enemy. There is no doubt that the
democratic party will commit blunders.
Its leaders have done nothing but blum
der since March 4. These blunders Will
aid IN making clear to the people their
delusion last November. Their func-
tons, however, will be only secondary.
1t is not il negation that the republic
an party hopes for success 1t is in the
ultimate triumph of positive princi-
pies, afiirmatively and aSgressively ad-
vocated. The problems of tomorrow
can only be solved by the party of prog
ress.-N. Y. Press.
