THE TARIFF SITUATION.

The Democratic Party was never
In a worse fix than 1t Is at the pres
emit time. 1t has been we'll said that
any party which attempts to pass
tariff bill invites defeat.
The measure known as the WILSON
Tariff Bill passed the Democratic
House of Representatives after bit
ter fight and was a long stride In the
direction of free trade.
Indeed so radical were some of it's
provisions that many leading manu-
facturers declared that it would
force them out of business, not being
able TO compete with the English
manufacturers and pay the Ameri-
can scale of wages.
1t was soon observed that the
Democratic Senate would never con-
cur with the House. The Wilson Bill
was so amended, AMI the changes
Tnade SO radical that it was openly
declared that 1t was simply the Re-
publican MCKINLEY Bill modified.
A tax was placed on sugar, coal
and iron ore. The Democrats had
to make these concessions In order
to prevent certain of their own mem
bers In the Senate from defeating the
measure.
The Income tax was another OBJ
noxiOus part of the House Bill and
1t was with difficulty that it was re-
tanned. As it was Senator Hull de
clined to support it, and voted will
the Republicans against the bill. II
was known that the members of th'
House we're wrathy over the terribI,
Disagreement their measure had re
ceived but It was not believed thai
they would go to the extent of de
feating IL rather than submit TO It'll
IprovisIons.
Il 1t was thought too that the Presl
dent favored the Senate measure a
the best that could be gotten at thi
session.
Imagine the surprise when tn
!, Committee on Conference from tn
two branches reported disagree
ment and Chairman WILSON al
though sick led the attack agalns
the Senate Bill. He read persona
letter from President CLEVELAND
dated as late as July 2, 1894, il
which he had denounced certain pro
visions OF the Senate tariff measur
/ and declared that TO pass the bill Il
that shape would be to sacrifice vi
, tai principles of Democracy itsell
The Democratic Senators were an
Igry and Senator GoRMAN who sci

The letter OF President GROVER
CLEVELAND addressed to Hon. VIM
L. WILSON, chairman of the House
Committee on Ways and Means is
the most remarkable private and
yet public document that has ever
emanated from any individual.
1t attacks the Senate Tariff Bill in
a merciless manner and leaves no
middle ground so far as free raw ma
terial is concerned upon which 10y
al supporter OF the administration
can stand.
The effect of this letter at this time
cannot be over-estImated. 1t has
raised the cry that the Senate must
surrender to the House of Represen-
tatives, and places the friends of the
administration In the upper branch
of the government in most embar-
RAISING situation, for they we're par

STU ALTON AT NORFOLK.

The Democrats of Norfolk, assist
ed by those In other sections OF the
state are endeavoring to make par
ty capital because twenty-five white
men were discharged and twenty-five
coIored men put In their places as a
result of the recent election In that
city.
These discharged white men went
so far as to parade the streets of
Norfolk with banner calling atten-
ton to the fact that Negroes had
been appointed to take their places.
1t seems strange that this should be
when these Democrats were making
overtures to these same Negroes In
order TO secure their aid In carrying
the election, and no doubt would
have pledged what the Reform-Pro-
hibitionists are carrying out.
We can remember the time when
Democrats of this state wouldn't
think OF having any body bat Me-
groes to do that kind of work.
We see 1t announced that an ex-
cursion Is to be given In order to
raise money to assist these white
men who were discharged, 1t being
alleged that their families are In a
destitute condition.
From the above 1t would seem
then that the city of Norfolk isN ex-
pected to furnish work for one set o.
men.during their lifetime, because
they fall to save up anything for q
"rainy day." while the thousands
who never have had chance at tn.
public crib are to suffer, and
their families want, in order to bene
fit this favored few.
1t seems to as that these twenty
two white men should be thankfu
that they have been retained SO Ions

Iployment rather than sit upon th'
