the leading organ of the democratic
party in Ohio:
1.-THE latest authorized version of the
democratic creed was promulgated at
Chicago in 1892. Did that state that
silver was to be discontinued as a
money metal and that gold should be
the only standard of value?
IF so, the administration is certainly
democratic and deserves the indorse-
ment of every member of the party.
''Did the Chicago platform authorize
the overthrow of republics and the re-
establishment of thrones, scepters and
crowns by aid of United States autAori-
ties?
''If SO, the enthusiastic support of
every democrat should be given to
those engaged in carrying out the plat
form.
Did that platform demand that tax
alton should be increased and burdens
be imposed greater ,than protective re-
publicans had laid on?
IF SO, those who frame revenue bills
extorting from the people millions
more than now taken, and propose is
sue of bonds to add to collections
for interest are true to the party faith
and their fidelity is fully demon
strated.
Ibid the platform declare for the
retention of republican clerks and of
fceholders and the appointment of
mugwumps to offices of trust and profit
whilst honest, faithful democrats, vet
Grams of many campaigns, should not
have the places their efforts won?
''If SO, the praise for those in power
should be unstinted, as they have un-
doubleday done all this

1t might be added that John r Nc
Lean, the proprietor of the Cincinnati
Enquirer, has not been candidate for
any Office in the gift of his party, and
his Indictment is the expression of a
democrat of independent ideas and

A DEMOCRATIC DEFEAT.
Good Work Being Done by the Rspub-
lican Minority.

1 ltcan Minority.
The administration has been soundly
beaten in the house, as it was in the
ways and means committee, by ma
jority of its own partisans Sensible
that an income tax would be odious
and might defeat its pet tariff, the ad.
ministration tried in the house to over
turn the decision Of the COMMITTEES
| against the tariff on raw sugar. But
by large majority the house has de-
cided against any duty on raw sugar,
rejected the gradual decrease of sugar
bounty proposed by the committee. and
even voted to take off all duty from
refined sugar. Being thus defeated in
a democratic house, the administration
end of the democratic party resorts to
whining, as usual, blaming its political
| opponents for its defeat, as il they
were under any obligation to help it to
pass measure breaking down Amer
lean industries. Whatever merit it
may have, this end of the democratic
party is indisputably the meaner and
less manly one. Its pitiful appeals to
republicans for help, and whining at
republicans when they decline, are apt
to make it known as the cry-baby
democracy, just as it is already the
cuckoo democracy.
Mr.. Reed and his republican asso-
ciates in the house can be trusted to
beat the free traders as often as they
have power and as badly as they can.
From time immemorial it has been a
feature of legitimate parliamentary
tactics to load down a hostile measure
with amendments which may sink it.
Republicans are not engaged in help
ing the free traders to make the tariff
acceptable to majority in the house
or the senate, and if they can vote into
it amendments which will kill the bill,
the president and Chairman Wilson
may expect to see it killed. For the
democratic party has deliberately made
war on American industry. and with a
strong democratic majority in both
houses of congress. If that majority
cannot be induced to agree upon any
revenue duty sufficiently to command a
quorum for it, the stanch and faithful
defenders of home industry ought to
prevail. At all events. administration
whining will not avail in the least to
lessen the shrewdness or tba v;gor OF
their defense.
1t is generally understood that the
defeat of the sugar duty, which the Ed-
ministration faction has constantly
favored as a compensation for the
heavy protective duties to be removed.
means that a majority in the house will
favor making the income tax part of
the tariff bill. 1t belongs in that
measure, If it is to go through any
where, for it is shameless performance
to pass by itself a bill protesting to
raise revenue which would create a
deficit of seventy-five million dollars. to
be met by some other measure of un-
known provisions. But it is also said
that many democrats will not vote for
the income tax, even if it should be
made part of the tariff bill Very well,
the hearts of millions of American
workers, who wait in vain for work to-
day, would not be sore if democratic
disagreement should put an end to the
warfare against their industry.-N. Y.
