THAT BILL.

Many of the Democratic newspapers
are tearing the Tariff bill just passed by
Congress as hyenas tear a carcass "It is,
after all, ," says one of these papers, "the
child of Mr.. Cleveland's own political
cowardics, and he will sign it," Says the
leading Democratic paper in the country,
the New York Sun; Somebody has fig
ured out the statement that while the
average of duties under the Mckinley act
is about 80 per cent, the average under
the new tariff is only about 3s per cent.
The attempt will be made to create the
impression i'm the mind of the public that
a. protecuonist measure this bill com
psres with the Mckinley tariff as IS with
90, and that tariff reform has gained
about "A per cent, The comparison means
nothing, and, whenever or by whomso-
ever used, il is employed only to deceive.
The dishonesty Of this method of measur-
ing results is shown by a simple illustra-
tion Suppose that under high protec-
tive tariff every article Of import We're
taxed so per cent ad yalorem. The aver
age duty under the tariff would be 80 per
cent. Suppose, on the other hand, that
the country had absolute free trade in
everything but opium and ergot, but that
the duty on those two articles was l0Oper
cent. The average duty under that tariff
would be 100 per cent, or double
the average Of the other tariff,
highly protective as it was. No
pretence has been made either in the
House or in the Senate, of attacking the
principle of discrimination which the
Chicago platform denounced as fraud and
robbery, and abhorrent to Democracy
The duties have been revised solely Will
