OF Industry.
The new democratic tariff is dis
tinctly not democrats tariff in prin-
ciple. In important portions it treats
all democratic principles and pledges
with absolute contempt In spots it is
really and highly protective, and the
favors granted 20 few monopolies are
all the worse because other industries
with which they have relations or COM
pete are ground into the dust under
free trade theories. Thus one manu-
facturcr Of certain kinds OF steel Is en-
abled by high duties TO pay his hands
as high wages as they have received,
or even higher, while other manufact-
urers of steel in the same ncighbor-
hood, producing different articles. arc
forced 20 reduce wages 80 per cent. or
shut up. The favored monopoly can
thus get labor cheaper, because thou
sands doing similar work will be
thrown out Of employment, even while
he can realize great profit without
any reduction. But while favoring
some interests, the bill Of sale pro-
fesses TO be protective in almost every
part, and its profession is generally
fraudulent

Distrust and Defeat the Portion of tho
Party In Power.
The acceptance by the house of rep
rescntatives of the senate tariff bill is
a surrender OF the democratic party TO
a small cotere of senator's who have
been the active agents OF the sugar
trust. 1t is the defeat OF the just ex-
pectations Of the people who placed
the democratic party in power in both
the executive and legislative branches
OF the government believing that 10
would reform the tariff This disap.
pointmcnt has been anticipated, buA
the contempt and anger which IL haa
aroused will not be the less for thaS
reason. The democratic party mas
failed 10 perform what IL has itself
declared again and again 20 be its
mission. Is has, therefore, invited dis
trust and defeat, and will assuredly
receive its just deserts. What hope
IL has for the future lies in the prom
ised laundering Of republican politi-
clans like ex-Speaker Reid and Scna-
tor Lodge, who are endeavoring 70 ne
goiate m alliance with the populists
1t may be that itsdefcat and its mis-
cradle and nbiect condition will at
least teach il the wisdom which il
ought TO have learned many years ago,
and that il will now rid itself Of the
leaders who have always invited dis
trust OF IL, retarding its progress, and
at last turned its victory into ashes.
1t must be confessed that SO much
courage and wisdom arc not TO be ex-
pccted OF IL confidently The imbe-
Gritty which attended the steps of the
tariff bin does not inspire hope. II
the democratic party were wise il
would not have adopted the populist
income tax. III IL wero courageous II
would not have accepted the bill
with the sugar trust schedule in
il. IL would have continued TO fight
for its principles with such vigor
and such sincerity that the Germans,
Brices, Smiths Murphys and Hills
would have recognized at last that
they could no longer successfully pose
as democrats. 1t has done nothing
but yield There is nothing in the
official record of the national demo
cratic party 20 show that German,
Brice and Smith will not again be able
TO pledge IL TO Louisiana or any other
protectionists with whom they may
make "A bargain.
What the effect OF all this may be
on national politics il Is too early to
determine. The tariff question IS at
rest for the moment, and there will be
no further agitation OF il during MIR.
Cleveland's administration On other
questions the drift Of events will set
