AS I stood in this April afternoon,
looking up at this excessively plain and
simple marble slab erected to the
memory of the deeds rather than the
personality of this plain and simple old
man, thought of that day in 1877, sew
enteen years ago, when the monument
was dedicated. The changes denoted
by the slab were not more remarkable,
possibly, than those which have oc-
Cured in the Sunhower State since
then, but late signs indicate that it
will not be long before Kansas will
throw aside her populistic vagaries and
stand again with the Republican pha-
lanx, to save the country from the per-
lis of free trade, as in other days it
saved itself from the blighting infu-
ences of slavery.
The reader may be interested in
learning that on the morning OF the
dedication, seventeen years ago, Hon.
John James ingalls,, before he had
gone down temporarily at the on
slaught of the host of Populist cranks,
was the principal orator, and among
his brilliant remarks were the follow
ing words:

which have followed so thickly in its train.
A CRUEL WRONG.
The extremes of tariff contention have
been embodied in the Mckinley law and the
Wilson bill, and it is now apparent that the
one must be abrogated and that the other
can never take its place. The senate is now
wrestling with a compromise bill, and eK.
cepting the infamous sugar schedule-it
comes nearer to what the Republicans should
have passed in 1880, than the Mckinley bill
ever did. At all events the voters of Ohio,
and of the nation, repudisted the Mckinley
law. The people declared that they will not
tolerate its excessive rates, and they have in
sited that reform and revision must mean a
lowering of duties and correction of equali-
ties.
As the chief executive Of the state, Major
Mckinley is expected to be leader Of his par
ty in the state, but he could come no nearer
carrying Ohio as a presidential candidate in
1896, on the Mckinley bill. than could Sena-
tor Brice stand on the original Wilson bill
as platform. 1t is futile for the Republi-
cans of Ohio 10 dash their heads against a
stone wall. Hard, cold, solid facts must be
considered. We cannot afford to repeat our
mistakes. The party must go forward or it
is lost. The hour for change in ideas and
methods has sounded. If the Republican
party is to fulfil the mission for which it was
born, if it is to maintain its fundamental
principles. it must give protection to Ameri-
can labor and to American industries, but 1t
must not be a protection that begets and
fosters trusts, and does cruel wrong and rank
injustice to the many for the benefit of the
few
