THURSDAY


mover kas wired the New York Herald
his views of the situation as follows:
ssrhe general business of the country will
not be materially affected by the new
tariff. II, like the Mckinley law, is
tax measure, and taxation does not en-
rich the general public, although, to the
extent that both measures are protective,
they may enrich particular classes.
Tariff regulation may somewhat disturb
business, and should cease, but no tariff
measure can revive universal prosperity.
The present industrial prostration is not
due TO any tariff or tariff agitation, but
to the lack Of sufficient money for the
full transaction OF the country's business.
Restore silver as q standard money, and
all OF our Industries will revive. The
new tariff is n great improvement over
the Mckinly,iaw, and would have been
greatly improved il it had given us frCe
sugar and free whisky"
