THE WILSON BILL AND PROS
PERITY.

We observe that both our esteemed
Republican contemporari are now
frankly admitting, what prior to the
election they both vehemently denied,
that already American industries are
responding to the quickening effect of
the Democratic tariff. Both of them
declare that the Republican majority
in congress will not undertake to undo
this great work. OF course they seek to
discount. in advance, the reviving pros
perity of the country, by attributing it
to the recent election.
Democrats, however, may rest easy,
as the industrial stagnstion and fnan-
cial disasters OF 1884 were the legiti.
mate fruit of the Mckinley law. during
the existence OF which they occurred, 80
the business revival and prosperity of
1895 and 1896 will be justly attributed
to the effect OF the Democratic tariff
which superseded that law, and which
will continue in force till 1897, at least.
The off-year blizzard has been little
more severe than usual; that is all.
High protectionism is dead. 4 revenue
tariff is the law Of the future, and the
party which struck down the Mckinley
fraud will, in 1896, receive the reward
which that great achievement merits.
The prosperity of the next two years
will be Democratic prosperity. and the
acquiescence of tho Republican ma
ioyitv in conoraaa in tho law NJ 1904 will
be en- acknowledgement OF the fact.

secured. One of the train crew claims
