stupid ~ the judicial wisdom Of Mr.
Justice BTidlsgoose. who soiemnIy decided
srits as lay BY weighing the papers On
eaca side In . pair Of scales- The Democ-
rscy. With the approval OF Secretary Car
Isle. propose to enact the Wilson tariff
bin. which throws away American msr-
ksss sad $4,000 go year Of revenue and
expect the Republicans 20 help them bor-
row money for the necessities which this
fool tariff creates The Democracy pro-
poses to break down the Republican tariff:
70 throw away SO 90 600 of yearly revenue
and then expect the Republicans 70 help
them by their votes to authorise Carlisle
TO borrow the money which under the
Democratic tariff II to Be thrown away.
The SIS. 600. coo Of revenue thrown away
under the Wilson bill would more than sup
ply the sum required by Mr.. Carlisle.
Mr. Carlisle throws away &75. 900 ooo of
needed revenue and then begs the Rspnb-
licans TO vote him authority to borrow
money to meet the public necessity that 10
TO be created by this Democratic tariff
Republicans cannot be fairly asked to pro-
vide for deficiency which has been Gre
ated By Democratic partisanship in the
shape Of revolutionary tariff bill that
throws away SIS. ooo, 900 Of yearly revenue.
There are q number Of Republicans who
win not vote to authorize the issue of
bonds until the Wilson bill 10 defeated, for
they fairly say that the bonds are only de-
sired that the dominant party may expert
ment with the tariff. and that to agree to
the passage of bill authorizing the issue
OF bonds win aid in the enactment of the
Wilson bill.
The administration cannot enact q Law
authorizing the issue Of bonds except by
the unanimous support Of the Repub-
iicans Of the house. because 1t viii be OPP
posed by the Populists. by the silver men
and the imitation Democrats. The Repub-
licans say that the proposition to issue
bonds cannot be separated from the at
tempt to pass the Wilson bill; that that
bill Is q measure to create additional de-
fciencies and not to provide revenue;
that 1t 10 not . revenue bill and that the
administration has refused to make IL a
revenue bill, and to cover the deficiency
likely to result from its enactment now
seeks to obtain authority to issue bonds.
Without this right the Republicans MAN.
tain that the Democrats of the senate will
hardly dare to pass the Wilson bill, as
they will b creating . deficiency without
providing any means to supply revenue.
Furthermore, coin bonds payable in sill
yer could not be sold for gold in Europe,
and the Democratic house will never au-
thorize the issue Of gold bonds. The
chances are that congress viii not author
ize Secretary Carlisle to issue bonds to
borrow money; that he will be compelled
to Issue them under the doubtful author
ity of the act of 1875; that "coin" bonds
could not be sold for gold abroad.
