Almost as soon as the votes cast At
the presidential and congressional
elections in 1892 had been counted the
democratic newspapers which had adj
vocated the radical tariff reform to
which the democratic party was
pledged by the Chicago platform be-
gan urging President-elect Cleveland
to call an extra session of congress as
soon as he should assume Office.
Such papers IS the New York Times,
Boston Herald. Chicago Herald and
Louisville Courier-Journal insisted
that the people had voted for tariff
reform. and 1t was the duty of the
democrats to give it to them - soon
Is possible. There was and could be
no excuse for delay, they said. Moth
ing stood in the way of the passage Of
bill which would wipe out the Nc
Kinley law if Mr.. Cleveland would
only convene congress in special ses-
sion and give the democratic lawmak-
ers q chance.
These radical free trade organs in
sisted that the democrats knew exact
" what they wanted. They had dis
cussed the proposed reform for years
It would not be necessary to even ap-
point a ways and means committee to
consider the bill Just as soon as
congress met the bill would be ready,
and it could be disposed of in both
branches inside of month. That
was what the molder> of democratic
opinion thought in the fall of 1892.
They assumed to believe that the dem
ocratic members of the Fifty-third
congress were being consumed by de-
sire to lift the burdens of tariff taxa
ton" from the backs of the people.
Mr.. Cleveland did call a special ses-
sion of congress, but not for the pur-
pose of considering tariff bill. The
subject of tariff reform was not even
taken up at that session. The COM
mittee on ways and means was ap-
pointed. however, and it had sue
ceeded in formulating bill before the
regular session of congress convened
in December. The work was done in
q cellar by the light of a dark lantern.
It was entirely the work of southern
democrats The republicans were not
permitted to assist in its creation, and
the people who were interested in the
subject were given but brief hearings.

Tho democrats had everything their
own way. and yet 1t required about
three months to get that bill through
the house.
Then the measure went to the sem
ate, where it was torn to pieces in the
interests of the various trusts, which
demanded consideration. Four hun
dred amendments were made to the
house bill, and it was finally passed.
after remaining in the hands of the
seLate more than four months Now
the two branches of congress are
in deadlock over the two bills. The
president has found it necessary to in
ject himself into the controversy. and
it is doubtful if the democrats will
succeed. after all, in agreeing upon a
bill which will please all factions Of
the democratic party and all the special
and sectional interests which the dem
ocrats are inclined to favor.
From all this it appears to be plain
that the democrats do not know what
they want. Furthermore, it is appar-
ent that they haven't much of an idea
what the tariff reform. about which
they have talked since 1884, is like.
People who had supposed that the de-
sire to smash protection represented
fixed and settled democratic policy
will be compelled to admit that they
were mistaken. Present events at
Washington lead to the conclusion
that the democrats advocated tariff re-
form simply for the purpose of array
ing one man against another and of
winning votes for the democracy. and
when they had won a victory upon
that issue they found themselves ut
terly unable to formulate and carry
out the policy they had advocated.
The democrats have succeeded in
demonstrating their incapacity when
entrusted with power, and they have
fully proved that the democracy IS q
party Of false pretenses- They have
accomplished nothing more.-Cleve-

Then, in conference committee sat

of the conflict rivaled steam sirens
blast. All the democrats were quar-
reling. and the echoes of the fray
travelled up the cable car track to the
white house far away. Members from
the house grew angry. Word came
from the president, but the senators
responded that they didn't give
cent Difficulties grew as many as
the bones in Taunton shad, but no
body could discover that the trusts
were feeling bad.
Democrats with wrath grew purple
and they even weep with grief. At
the white house they hold counsel, but
cen there find no relief. Smeared
with scandal, gross and tainted is the

most ready to take down the bitter
pill. So the trusts are suavely patient
and await the certain end, for the

surely bend. So the house still chafes
and mutters and the president is sad,
but nobody has discovered that the
trusts are feeling bad.
Still. the peoples turn is coming
and it will not be so long ere the trusts
that now are gleeful will discover
