eFs-I 1t seems t o be Mr.. Cleveland's
studied purpose to break down and
sweep away everything which has
been established beyond the seas for
the protection Of American interests
in foreign parts. We are building a
great and expensive navy, not because
there is danger of collision with other
powers, but because American trade
is expanding and American inter-
ests are springing up all over the
world. But the Cleveland admins
tration Giscourages everything which
tends to sustain q wise foreign policy.
Mr.. Cleveland truclllcd to England in
the Bchring sea matter, as he is now
trucking to Germany in the Samoan
matter. 1t places the country in a hui
initiating light before the rest of the
world. Albany Journal.

A BILL.
The Swindling Policy of the Pnmbugging
Democracy.

When the democratic national cons
vention, held At Chicago in 1892, dis
cussed the tariff question, the plank
from the Randall platform of 1894 was
brought forward. This was on the
lines of modified protection. But it
was howled down by Henry Waiter
son and other free trade fanatics, and
for it was substituted the Neal-Nat-
terson plank, which denounced the
system of protection" as ''unconstitu-
tional' and as "a fraud-a robbery of
the majority Of the American people
for the protection of the few" 1t was
with this tariff plank in their platform
that the democratic party went before
the people pledged to free trade.
How have they carried out their
promises? They have struck down
wool and protected coal. They have
freed salt and protected raw sugar.
They have freed tin ore and protected
iron ore. They have laid before the
people "A bill which is not a free trade
bill, or even n bill for revcnue only,
but a protective tariff which differs
from the republican tariff only in de
gree, but not i'll kind.
1t has been estimated (by democratic
statisticians) that the grand average
OF duties under the republican Mckin-
ley tariff was fifty per cent. 1t is esti-
mated also by democratic statlsti-
clans that the grand average of du-
ties under the democratic sugar trust
tariff is thirty-eight per cent. This
makes n difference of twelve per cent.
If, as the democratic platform alleged,
protection is unconstitutional" a
fraud" and a robbery" how about
this sugar trust tariff? If fifty per
thirty-eight per cent. constitutional?
Does twelve per cent. make the differ
ence between honesty and dishonesty?
If fifty per cent. protection is q fraud
and a robbery. is not thirty-eight per
cent. protection a robbery and u fraud?
1t is small wonder that Grover Cleve-
land hesitated to affix his signature to
this humbug bill. 1t is not an honest
bill. 1t is tainted with all manner of
scandals and rumors of bribery. 1t is
not what the rank and file Of the dem
ocratic party asked fcr, nor is it what
the democratic leaders promised to
give them.
The democratic party's platform was
a swindle, its investigation Of the
sugar scandal was a sham, and its So
called free-trade tariff is a fraud

IS electing a republican delegate and legislature the people of Arizona have declared most emphatically against statehood. This remak made prior to the election would have been, and indeed was considered buncomb; but it is the only sensible view 10 take of it. The bill to admit us having passed the house was sent to the senate and reported from the commit tee to that body, and is now on the calendar ready to be called up, and would pass, without doubt, in De- cember if we had given undoubted assurance of our intentions to send two democratic senators to Washing ton. II Arizona is republican, as it appears at this writing to be, it will not be admitted to statehood until a republican congress shall have taKen the place of the present ooe.

THE populists have made their bow to the Arizona public, and have been well spplauded. The result shows them to be nearly all democrats. To go from one party to the other does not require a long journey The principles of democracy and the peoples party are largely from the same tree. Free coinage of silver, tariff reform, election of senators by the people, snti-monopoly, and state hood, and other leading issues are common to both. It Is a very foolish way to try to accomplish good by dividing on the same principles. Those who have strayed away from the democratic fold must be shown che grave mistake they have made at this time. They have simply taken a hand in sending republican delegate to congress and killing our chances of statshood.
