1t, and be taxed for the benefit the sugar trust. which tax should be rne by tho American consumers. TheF es- ident himself. if Senator German be right, was a party to this contract, and he, too. much as he loathed the bill. was not unwilling to have the sugar bargain carried into effect. Perhaps, too this is one of the hidden reasons why he did not veto the hideous off- spring of party periidy and party dis honor.'
 He then reviewed the administra- ton of President Cleveland and the work of the present congress and se- verely denounced the new tariff law and the methods employed in Its pass age. These, he said, had already been freely denounced In the house of their friends. and he needed onyl to quote democratic authority to prove all that he had charged against the measure. The governor continued: After nineteen months useless agitation, not yet content with the vast ruin they have wrought, they are still unwilling to give the business interests of the country any rest or relief whatever. but continue and constantly renew on every hand the threats of still more hurtful changes in tariff schedules.
 Even the president himself. in his letter to Congressman Catchings Of Mississippi, asserts that the agitation Is only just begun. He says: "The mil lions of our countrymen who have fought bravely- and well for tariff re-
 
 be exhorted to continue the struggle, boldly challenging to open warfare, and constantly guarding against treachery and half-heartedness in their camp"
 And who, while he permitted the bill to become law, lacking the moral courage to veto 1t, yet boastingly an | nounces:
 q take my place with the rank and file of the democratic party, who believe in tariff reform, and who know what 1t Is; they refuse to accept the results em- bodies in this bill as close of the war; who are not blinded to the fact that the livery of democratic tariff reform had been stolen and worn in the service of republican protection and who have marked the places where the deadly blight of treason has blasted the councils of the brave ir their hour of night
 Strong and sanguinary words ar, these, new to MT. Cleveland's vocabu- lar-treason,' and the close of the war The language not of peace, but of battles, fierce strife and conten- l ton. . ""War for and against what? Trait Tors against whom and what? War against the best and highest interests of the people of the United States, whose chief fexecutive nevertheless he is. War against our industrial indepen dence and business prosperity? Bu, the president did not stand alone in this unpatriotic proposition. The de- mocracy of Ohio had declared in their platform:
 we adhere to the declaration of the democratic party in its national plat form that protection is fraud, and, while we recognize the benefit of the reductions of duties on imports just made, having in view the revenues necessary to be raised for the support of the government, to the end that the injustice of purely protective duties be abolished, and Chairman Hurd, in his speech to the state convention, cried, when alluding to this same matter. Let no one cry peace, peace, when there is no peace These challenges must be accepted, said the governor.
 After most bitterly denouncing the bill they have just passed, democratic leaders and press console themselves by declaring that the new law, after all, is better than the act of 1890. Bet ter for whom? Better for what? Whose factories will it set to work? It has improved no American interests whatever unless 1t be the sugar and whiskey trusts. It will not start sin gle new factory It will not light a solitary fire. It will not increase the demand for labor at home. Whatever hope 1t brings is to alien and the stranger Whatever industry 1t quick ems lies beyond the seas. Better thar the law of 1890! A law under the operation of which every man in this country was employed at good wages. Every factory was running at it's full capacity and the consumer was secur- ing the necessaries of life cheaper thar he had ever received them before. The governor recited clause in the new tariff law which renews the treas ury stipulation of 1875, by whihc sugar from the Sandwich Islands is to ad- mitted, but he wanted to know if the treaty stipulation with the Sandwich Islands was more sacred and binding han the contract with our citizens by the tariff law of 1890 There is no ex- cuse in law, justice or equity for this betrayal of the confidence of the people of the United States. The law of 1894 takes the bounty from the producers of the United States-a bounty which amounts to about s11 1,Oo0,o 900 annually but carefully secures to the Hawaiian producers a bounty which annually amounts to $6,0o0,00o. Is it any wonder why the people reject this un-American bill at every opportunity"
 Passing to the financial problem, the governor said: ''Our present embar- rassment does not come from too little money, nor too much money, nor from the character of money now in use. Our difficulty is to get the money we have into circulation. Our money Is as good, whether it be silver or gold, national bank notes, treasury notes, greenbacks or gold or silver certificates. If we stop reducing we will not need labor, and. when we cannot require labor we cannot employ 1t and then yva res are stopped and when waees aro
