Tom Reed and the republicans were
put 70 sleep" by Speaker Crisp when
the question of passing the seigniorage
bill over the presidents veto came up
In the house the other day.
When Mr.. Bland brought up the sub
ject there was great glee among the
republicans Their leaders, with snil-
Ing faces and chuckling lips, eagerly
gathered in consultation. laying their
plans for the fun they expected 10 have
at the expense Of tire democratic side
OF the house They would set their
opponents by the ears; they would
egg" them on; they would give them
plenty OF time and plenty OF room. and
they expected the fur and dust TO ty
and the democratic party To split wide
open. So engrossed were they in dig
ging this pit for their opponents that
the speaker, in accordance with the
rules, had ordered the vote. the first
name on the roll had been called, and
the republicans were buried in their
own pit before they could bat their
eyes Their weak. dazed and wholly
Intellectual efforts 10 extricate them

chapters in congressional history.
Their little plot, which was thus frus-

course since the democracy assumed
power. Since the 4th of March. 1898.
the republicans have never made q
movement which did not look to the
advantage Of their party rather than 10
the good Of the country. II matters
not how grave has been the public ne
cessity, or how serious the demand for
craftsmanship and patriotism rather
than political intrigue and partisan
ship, the republicans have never risen
above a desire to tie the hands Of the
party in power. to divide II with dis
sensions, and to protract and intensity
the evils from which the country was
suffering and from which it was crying
for speedy relief. because by so doing
they thought they could arouse the
wrath Of the people against the demo
Gratis.
They pursued this policy of obstruc'
ton and irritation with reference &c

with systematic efforts to incite a fear

They are pursuing the same policy

, all they can TO prevent a settlement OF

that continued uncertainty, however
much it may injure the country. viii

Kept IL Up Too Long.

It Is a good time for the republicans
TO pause and see how foolish they have
been in committing themselves to the
position that any bill the democrats
might pass would ruin the country.
They have been irreconcilable all
through. finding each revision worse
than the preceding, and growing shril.
Ter as tho evil day Of the passage OF
some bill approached. In this way
they have burned their bridges behind
them. They cannot now fall back on
the protective features left In the bill
and say that these have kept the coun-
try from going to the dogs. where it
will yet surely 20 II the wicked dem
ocrats are allowed 70 do any more tariff
revising. They have so thoroughly
overdonc the bugaboo business, and

The Extortionafe Tribute Levied ON the
Country by the Republicans


In his recent speech on the tariff bill
Senator Voorhees, admirably presented
the reasons why the country should
be freed from the crushing burden OF
Mex inlcyiSm SO convincing were his
arguments for the necessity of radical
reform and SO seathing his denuncia-
ton of the system which brought tho
country To the verge Of ruin that there
was added humiliation in his ndmis.
sion that the measure reported py the
committee was not to his liking. Con.
cessions had been made 10 a powerful
and INSCRIPTIONS opposition in order
70 secure a passage OF the bill. Those
men had their way whom the eloquent
senator pictures AS striding the CORR.
doris Of the capitol issuing their edicts
in the tones Of dictators for or against
the enactment of pending measures in
the halls of congress.
Ii was n most significant admission
OF the senator that 'those men who
own and represent these wooden in
terests do not hesitate to declare on
what terms bill vitality affecting
seventy million of people will be per-
mitted To become law and in default
of what provisions for financial profits
TO themselves they will insure its de-
feat" II is conceded that the bill does
not meet the popular demand which it
aims TO appcasc- 1t Is step IN the
right direction. but much shorter and
more disappointing step than the peo-
pie called for in the exercise OF their
sovereign right
But let there be no misrepresentation
as to where the responsibility for this
deplorablc state of affairs belongs. II
rests with that arrogant and graspinR
power which has been protected in
the accumulation of a strength which
dares to essay control OF national legis-
lation 1t was dominant and unques-
toned in the latter days OF republican
supremacy. 1t owned legislators and
dictated their line of policy. IL was as
powerful in political as in financial af-
fairs 1t was plutocracy representing
but an insignificant fraction in tho
number OF our population, yet 1t wa,
in absolute control OK our national at
fairs. The republican party served IL
and the entire country paid cxtortion
ate tribute.
1t is this element which has asserted
itself in the senate and forced the sub
mission of an unacceptable tariff bill.
1t has ,riumphcd for the time but has
called attention TO an influence that
must be suppressed before the rule OF
the people can be assured. In this
view Of the case the present loss and
humiliation Of the country may in the
end be is gain. II is made palmer than
ever before 10 the average citizen that

High Tarin Productive OF Hard Tines
and bankruptcy.
When the failure of prudent farm
ers' crops creates gap between the
receipts and expenditures on settle
mont day he Immediately contrives to
reduce expenses and increase reve-
nues. Any other course would entail
bankruptcy in the end When bust
ness is dull and the profits on reduced
sales fails to meet the fixed charges OF
the enterprise the prudent merchant
or manufacturer sets about devising
means to reduce rents and minimize
other expenditures 20 the end that
threatened insolvency may be avertcd
When an intelligent people are bur
dened with charges beyond their ca
pacity to pay. the wise course is 70
adopt measures TO lessen the charges
80 that their labor may be released
from needless taxation.
The American people are suffering
from excessive taxation. When bust
ness is brisk, sales rapid and profits
large the merchant can stand high
rent, liberal wages to employees and
costly methods of transacting bust
ness When crops are abundant and a
ready market supplies an active de-
mand at high prices, the farmer doesn',
feel the expense of implements Blu,
when conditions are reversed. and in.
stead of profits as the result of bust
ness effort in the store or ceascless toll
on the farm, the roundup shows q
loss, economies must be introduced Il
prevent disaster. Then difference OF
q few hundred dollars a year in wages
and rent and few dollars apiece or
farm machinery becomes a matter Of
Importance.
After the war the release OF vas'
army with large sums representing
their wages in their pockets made bust
ness all through the country lively
Prices we're high because the money
was actively employed Taxes were
high, but that made no difference
Profits were so large that the amounts
drawn by means Of taxation were mo-
missed. But gradually things have
changed Profits have dwindled ant
everything has decreased except taxes
