A sEFFERsoNIAN TARIFF.

Some OF the Republican speakers and
papers in this region are trying to
make the uniformed believe that JEFF
ferson and Jackson advocated the
kind of tariff which the Republican
party has built up and enforced. If
our Republican friends would only fol-
low Jefferson and Jackson there would
be no dispute between them and the
Democratic party. One of our contem-
poraries admits that both those emf
nent men were Democrats in their
time. Thanks. Members of the same
party now are also Democrats in their
time. Are modern Republicans disci-
pies of Jeffersonian Democracy?
jefferson and Jackson each advocat-
ed tariff So do Cleveland and
Stevenson, Wilson and Rawlins. None
of them ever advocated such a tariff
as that which has run into Mckinley
ism. The rates of the Wilson bill are
higher than those that were imposed
in the time of either Jefferson or Jack
son. Those Democratic statesmen
would have been amazed and indig-
nant at proposition to levy such
monstrous duties as are embodied in
Republican tariffs. and McKinleyism
would have made them don their war
paint and fight Republican protection
to the bitter end.
The moderate temporary rates they
We're willing to levy on imports, were
imposed for the purpose of raising rev.
enue for the expenses of government

ranged as to afford incidental protec-
ton to infant industries" But as the

REED ON MKINLEYIsM.

Tom Reed has made the most i'm
portant declaration concerning Nc
Kinleyism that has yet been made by
any Republican of prominence. In his
Ann Arbor interview he stated that
sit would not necessarily follow that
''the return of the Republican party
to power in 1896 would mean the re-
enactment of the Mckinley law
The Importance of this can scarcely
be overestimated. 1t is declaration by
one Of the most prominent Republicans,
man who will in all probability ask
his partys Endorsement as it's presi-
Dental candidate two years hence, that
the policy of the party on the question
of protection has been a mistake, a
mistake in pushing it to the extreme
of McKinleyism. The party fought two
elections on that issue and lost them
In the second election it lost the Pres
idency and the control OF Congress- This
Reed recognizes and desires to rectify
so far as in mis- power lies. He has evil
IDENTIFY studied the temper of the people,
and finds that they are against high
protection. He, as much as Governor
Mckinley himself, is responsible for
McKinieyism, for he appointed the
committee that drafted the bill that
was called after the chairman of that
committee.
Reed and all the Republicans have
said that the adjustment of the tariff
should be entrusted to the friends of
the tariff. Those friends when they
have adjusted it have adjusted it up
while the people demanded that it be
adjusted down. Reeds party refused to
comply with these demands, while the
Democrats complied with them. And this
is what he has seen and he is trying
to make the people believe that he
and his party will comply with their
wishes if again entrusted with power.
They will scarcely be beguiled so easily.
They are the friends of the people
who satisfy their demands, not those
who oppose them.

THE PROOF SUPPLIED.

I'VE have a contemporary which has
is hostile to silver" says the Salt Lake
Tribune. So have we. Our neighbor
says that jeeringly; we say it seriously.
The Tribune refers to the Salt Lake
Herald; we refer to the Salt Lake Tri-
bune. Here is our reference. 1t is what
the Tribune said about the repeal of
the Sherman purchase provision:
''Silver is the dominant thought
The Republican party, by its repre-
sentatives in Congress, has shown it
self basely, idiotically recreaut on the
silver question, without sense or party
vantage, indeed contrary to both.
The Republican representatives could
at any stage of the vote carried the
day. They could have forced free coin
age at 20 to L; they could have secured
it at Is to 1; they could have defeated
the Wilson repeal bill. To say right
on the heels of failure to do any of
these things, and just as the Republic
cans haye made an anti-silver showing
so radically and ineXcusably worse
than the Democrats have made, that
now it is the opportune time TO set the
Republican ball a rolling Shows a sim
gular obtuseness of mind"
We are aware that our contemporary
is very forgetful and does not like to
have its memory sharpened as to its
own utterances. But it becomes neces-
sary now and then to quote itself
against itself.
Our contemporary has established
just what we have asserted. Will it
eat its own words or acknowledge now
that the Republican party is hostile
to silver or it will keep on stultifying
itself in order to take a fling Of false
hood at The Herald?
If "the Republican party, by its
representatives in Congress- at the
recent session has shown itself basely,
Iidiotically recreant on the silver ques-
tion,'' that is simply following the whole
line of its silver record since 1878, and
why should our contemporary which
declares the fact jeer at The Herald
for also announcing it? Score one more
against the Trib.

n. H. ROBERTS on DEMOCRACY.

At the Continental market hall this
evening, Hon. B. H. Roberts will speak
on Democracy. He will devote part Of
his time to the exposition of the funda-
mental differences between the two
parties, particularly as exemplified in
their respective theories of taxation and
the use of the taxing power. that
greatest of all powers in government,
the power to destroy. No better sub
ject could be chosen to illustrate the
principles of the parties. And these
principles will be set forth in master
ly manner
After this Mr. Roberts will take up
some of the misstatements and wild
assertions of the Republican candidate
for Delegate to Congress and answer
them in detail. He viii also answer
some Of the ISLANDERS and untruths of
the Republican organ of Mr. Cannon's
town.
All who desire to hear an able and
eloquent address on Democracy and
the issues of the campaign should go
and hear Mr.. Roberts. Those whose
political views are not the same as Mr..
Roberts will in no way be offended.
His reputation as an orator is second
to none in the territory.

said SO. II is this that has reused the
. ire of the Four Hundred. Their cham
pom, the McAllister, cries out first of
ALL Must one of necessity have hang
ing ON THE walls of ones dining-room
an oil painting or portrait of ones
grandfather
From what the McAllister say 1t
would seem that it is not necessary at
Newport to have hanging on the walls
! of ones dining-room an oil painting or
portrait of ones grandfather.
From what NJ. Bourget says it seems
that it is necessity in France. Such
is the case in England, judging from
what we read of Sir Roger de Coverley's
ancestry in the Spectator.
Grandfatilers and ancestors are alb
solutely necessary in all societies;
whether it is necessary to have oil por-
traits of them is another thing. If one
cannot trace his ancestry in Burke's
Peerage he can in all probability trace
| 1t in Darwin's Descent of Man. An
cestral portraits have their uses. say
what the McAllister will When not
hung in dining-rooms they can very
property be hung up outside of inns.
For example, there was the portrait of
Sir Roger hung up as the sign of The
Knights Head. And if at any time 1t
is desired to change the name OF the
inn it can be done by adding a pair
of whiskers and a little aggravation of
the features; and then it becomes The
Saracen's Head. To transfer the oil
portrait of grandfather from a Gin
Iing-room to the street as the sign of
an eating house is the most logical
thing in the world
And who were those ancestors whose
portraits in oil adorn the dining-rooms
of the aristocracy and society of Europe
and of which their descendants are so
proud? Most of them were robber
barons who preyed upon their neigh
bors and plundered the poor. Robbery
was made respectable because it was
made successful
But what advantage can their de-
scendants boast over the American
moneyed aristocracy? The fathers of
most of the American moneyed aris-
ltocracy were tariff robbers, and their
success in accommodating plumber was
far greater than that of the robber
barons.
Newport society has not been ira
duced by M. Paul Bourget; it has been
distinguished and made prominent.
The McAllister has championed a
cause that needed no championing.

THE REPUBLICANS AGIrATED.

The speech of Senator Sherman at
Akron, O., is not being circulated as a
campaign document by the Republi-
cans 1t can be used neither in the
East nor in the West. The anti-silver
sentiments it contains would kill it in
the West, and the declaration that he
is not now and never was an extreme
protectionist will kill 1t in the East as
a campaign document.
The declaration about protection is
the most important made by any Re-
publican this year. So far as protec-
ton is concerned, Senator Sherman
has seen the handwriting on the wall.
Extreme protection, whose latest shape
has been known as McKinleyism, is
doomed, and the wise men Of the Re-
publican party recognize the fact. The
Detroit Tribune has had something to
say about this speech. 1t comments
as follows:
The senator declares in effect for a
tariff for revenue only. If he is right,
then all the experience of the past has
simply led the country astray. Gov
ernmental principles are necessarily
tentative, and can only be judged con-
clusively in the light of experience. If
the history of the United States proves
one thing more conclusively than an
other it is the wisdom of tariff adj
justed with the protective idea primar-
lily in view. 1t proves that the revenue
will take care of itself, and do it better
than legislation framed for its especial
benefit.
The history Of the United States dur
ing nearly four years of McKinleyism
proves that extreme protection means
business depression and panic. The
business of the country went to the
dogs, and the public treasury suffered
from diminished revenues, diminished
to the extent of creating deficit.
The Senator really declared for a
tariff for revenue only, and he was
right. 1t is this that is agitating the
Republicans.

|rectly in their special interest, and
has thus become what it is now de-
clared to be unconstitutional and a
fraud
Remember. it is Republican protec-
ton" which is thus denounced in Dem
ocratic platforms. 1t is the heresy of
class legislation that Democratic prin-
ciples oppose. 1t is the false doctrine
that the government may exercise its
powers for the particular and especial
interest of a few favored firms, COM
jpanies, corporations and trusts, in
creasing the tariff as they dictate and
making the primal purpose of a tariff
the raising of national revenue-mere-
ly subordinate consideration.
Jeffersonian and Jacksonian Democ-
racy is formulated in the adage:
Equal rights to all, special privileges
to none" and that is essentially hos
tile to McKinleyism, or Republican
protection run mad. The new Demo-
|eratie tariff has not come down to that
level Of the moderate duties that JEFF
ferson and Jackson consented to, but
it is a grand step in that direction. and
will effect magnificent reform in the
interest of the masses instead of the
classes, and that is in line with JET
fersonian Democracy.
Free trace in it's full meaning and
extent is not attempted by the Democ-
racy of today. A tariff for revenue.
wisely arranged, will answer every
reasonable purpose, in the direction of
providing for the expenses of govern
ment and leaving a margin Tor pro-
ducers and manufacturers in compe-
tition with foreign markets, so that
they can pay present wages and still
make fair profits. Business and trade
are settling down on that basis, and
even if the Republican party should
obtain a temporary advantage, McKin-
leyism, now buried, will never rise
again
