Tariff reform does not seem 10 have
been more than skin-deep with some Of
those who called themselves democrats:
but the people were in dead earnest
about it.-Evansvilie Courier.
There are a few more trusts that

senators have applied TO the sugar and

Senators Voorhees, and Turpie may
as well understand first as last that In

posed to a democratic protective tariff
as they are TO a republican protective
tariff.-Lebanon Pioneer.
Bury such traitors as German so deep
under an adverse majority the next time
they seek favors from the party they
have so ruthlessly betrayed-so deeply

AS reported to the senate from the
finance committee the tariff reform bill
is worse. much worse, than IL was when
* passed the house. And il was bad
enough then, because not thorough
enough. What the senate has done TO
the bill has been in the wrong direction
for the most part.-Terre Haute Ca

The election Of United States senators
by the people would be a step in the
right direction. If the people had chosen
the present democratic members Of the
United States senate there would be no
plutocratic protectionists among them.

The conduct of the senate at the
present session is no worse than IL was

Jacksonian.
United States senators should be elect
ed by the popular vote Of the people.
SO should the president and vice-presi-
dent. This system would relegate to
private life all who run on a party plat
form and after being elected refuse TO
carry out the party policy. Hill. Cor
man, Brice. ct al. would never be re-
turned 10 the senate If the people had a
Voice in their selection. The old custom
of wealthy men purchasing seat in the
United States senate would be abolished
by such a law.-Tipton Times.
The sugar and whisky trusts have the
United States by the throat. Humiliat-
ing as the confession Is no one can read
the account of the recreancy of certain
senators and avoid making il. The two
great organized trusts which have long
controlled the sugar and whisky mar
kets have extended their power into the
senate and seem TO have absolute con-
