The New Tariff and Lead.

Some of the leading lead miners Of
the country are awakening to the fact
that under the new tariff law the lead
mining industry receives better and
more intelligent protection than it en-.
ioyed under the Mckinley bill. Tn.
der the old bill the duty was paid
upon assays and reports made at the
boundary line AS a result much
fraud, or, to say the least, gross care.
lessness, was practiced. As everybody
knows, the lead ores are purchased
for fnxlng purposes and ores assaying
between 80 per cent in lead and in
some classes, 40 per cent, need hux-
ing themselves. In the face Of this
fact the official statistics show that
the average percentage Of lead in the
ores upon which duty was paid under
the Mckinley bill was only 10 per
cent, fact which is conclusive proof
that the government was defrauded
Of millions Of dollars and the Amer
lean miners robbed of vast market
which under proper regulations would
have been theirs.
The Democratic law which has just
been enacted, provides a safeguard
against these abuses. Instead Of col
lecting duty in accordance with hap
hazard reports from the border the
government will collect from the
smelters, thus insuring accuracy and
shutting out a vast amount of low
grade ore, which under the old condl-
tons would be brought into the
courtrr.
Lead miners conversant with the
fact are more than pleased with the
new bill and are confident that the
Democratic tariff will 90 far toward
restoring 70 them the market to which
they are entitled and Of which they
have been robbed BY fragrant fraud or
careIessness under the
protection. The Demo
cratic tariff promises to put the lie to
arguments SO efeotually
that tie Munchausen and Missionaries
Of protection will be relegated to
oblivion before the opening Of the

We have been living in FOOLS para

inoculate all with fever for sudden

IT is a DISAPPOINTMENT.

Mckinley Law.

Mckinley Law.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 27.-The presi-
dent to-day sent the following letter
to Representative Catchlngs, OF Mis-
sissippi, who consented to its publica-
tion on account Of lis public character
and Importance.
Executive Mansion, Washington,
D. G, Aug. 27.-Hon. T. c. Catch
ings Ny Dear Sir-Sinee the con
yersation l had with you and Mr.
Clark, Of Alabama, few days ago in
regard to my action on the tariff bill
now before me, l have given the sub
ject full and most serious considera-
ton. The result IS that am more
settled than ever IN the determination
to allow the bill to become law with
out my signature
When the formulation Of legislation
which it was hoped would embody
the Democratic ideas Of tariff reform
was lately entered upon By congress,
nothing was further from anticipation
than a result which l could not
promptly and enthusiastically indorse.
Ii is, therefore, with a feeling OF ut
most disappointment that l submit TO
a denial Of this privilege. l do not
claim to be better than the masses Of
my party, nor do wish to avoid my
responsibility which, on account Of
the passage Of this Law, | ought to
bear as member Of the Democratic
organization; neither will / permit
myself to be separated from my party
to such an extent as might be implied
by ny veto Of the tariff legislation
which though disappointing, is still
chargeable TO Democratic effort.
But there are provisions in this bin
which are not in line With honest
tariff reform and it contains inconsis-
tencies and cruditles which ought not
to appear in a tariff law or laws of
any kind Besides, there were, as you
and well know, incidents accompany.

congress which made every sincere
reformer unhappy, while the influences
that surrounded it in its later stages

tolerated in Democratic tariff reform
councils.
And yet, Notwithstanding all it,
vices and all the bad treatment 1t re-
ceiyed at the hands Of pretended
friends. it presents a vast improve
meDt to existing conditions. # will
certainly tighten many tariff burdens
that now rest heavily upon the people.
1t is not only a barrier against the
return Of protection, but 1t furnishes
a vantage ground from which must be
waged further aggressive operations
against protected monopoly and gov
ernmental fayoritism.
! take my place with the rank and
file Of the Democratic party who be-
lieye in tariff reform and who know
what it is, who refuse to accept the
results embodied in this bill as the
close of the war; who are not blinded
to the fact that the livery Of Demo
cratic tariff reform has been stolen
and worn ia the service Of Republican
protection, and who have marked the
places where the deadly blight Of
treason has blasted the councils Of the /
braves in their hour Of might. The
