The tariff is the tax levied BY the
government upon goods imported
into this country. The importer
adds the amount of the tax to the
price Of the goods, and it is At last
paid by the American consumer
who buys them. The American
manufacturer Of similar g.sods also
adds the amount OF the tax to the
price OF his goods, and il is paid
into his pocket by the American
consumer who buys them. This il
called protection. The higher the
tax, the more the manufacturer

Republican Policy of Obstruction.

The Republican party is cutting a sorry
figure before the country. In four years
under the Harrison Administration, the
party dissipated the one hundred and
thirty millions of dollars of surplus left in
the treasury by the Cleveland Administra-
ton, increased taxation by the passage of
the Mckinley law, added new burdens for
the people by adding largely to the fixed
appropriations of the government, unsettled
finances by the Sherman silver purchase
act, and by this act and the Mckinley act
brought on business and financial depres-
sion, and in the closing hours of that Ad.
mipistration was about to consummate the
theft Of an independent country, the for
mer government of which an American
Minister, aided by United States marines,
had helped to overthrow
After all this, and when beaten by an
overwhelming vote before the country, and
the i'll effects of their misrule and eHtrava.
gance were shown by financial depression
greater than experienced for quarter of
century and mills and factories were clos
ing and business gene rally was unsettled,
the Republican leaders and journals, with
an unparalleled effrontery, charged all the
affecting evils to Democratic success and
Democratic intentions.
The silver purchasing clause of the
Sherman bill was repealed, after severe
struggle, and the gold reserve has been
strengthened and the Treasury protected
by an issue of bonds. A bill to modify
taxation has passed one house of Congress,
and is now being considered in the other
The result is restoration Of confidence,
still not complete, and a great revival Of
business. For this, however, the Repub-
licans are entitled to no credit. Having
brought on disaster by their acts, they
should have aided in undoing their work.
On the contrary they have been obstruc-
tionists upon all measurers, nearly. and
