WILL WHITNEY GET 1T?

1t is now hinted that the Administra-
ton will interfere once more with the
tariff bill. Not content with rewardins
the Sugar Trust by extorting millions
from the people unnecessarily, Mr.. Car
Isle, as active agent of the Administra.
tion, now proposes to give x-Secretary
Whitney what he desires in the shape of
free coal. The Whitney Syndicate.
which bought the big Nova Scotian
mines some two or three years
ago, has demanded that the Presi-
dent recognize their devotion to
the Democracy by cutting down the
discriminating tariff of rs cents per ton
against them and Mr.. Carlisle before
going off on his present outing held
consultation with certain members of
the ways and means committee for the
purpose it is said of having this duty
scaled down to 40 cents ton.
Ihls big reduction would give the
Nova Scotian coal big advantage i'm
New England markets. The transporta
ton cost, which Is a big factor, would.
OF course, be much less from Nova Scotia
than from Pennsylvania, Ohio or Ala
bama. In other words, this would give TO
ex-Secretary Whitney and his associates
the entire New England market without
competition, but if they can get the con-
cession now talked about these "friends"
OF the Administration will be demanding
reduction of the whole duty. and GER
tainly Mr.. Whitney has been very
modest so far i'll his demands upon the
Administration.
The American people have learned
many lessons during the past fourteen
months OF Democratic rule. They have
learned that great political party has
no regard for its pledges they have
seen American interests at home and
abroad betrayed at the dictates OF cam
paign contributors; they have seen Sem
ators sham elessly plunge into specula-
lion while it was in their power TO
Affect the value OF the stocks they dealt
n by their votes; they have seen for
'ign manufacturers obtain advance in
.ormhriou on schedules before the
American public has learned that the
rates nave been fixed.
They have f'en political party pros
iItute itself in the mire and drag itself
through the scandal Of political jobbery,
he most disgraceful in the history of
he nation, and then pose with pride
'efore the disgusted gaze of nation as
"reformer' party acting in the interest
the welfare of the country. They
ave seen this party denounce protec-
ion as unconstitutional, robbery and {
cheat and then pass a protection
leasure more ultra-protective when {
outhern Democratic industries are s
than the Mckinley bill.
These are only some of the things the s
eople have seen, but these few are (
nough to disgust every honest man. G
'hateyer his politics, and that disgust r
all find expression most emphatically C
