The Compromise TariR Bill.

The Democrats Of the Senate have
agreed upon what they call "comprO-
mise tariff bill Its basis is, Of course,
u few mutilated fragments Of the Wilson
bill The compromise" refers TO the
changing or the coal and iron ore schedule
10 suit one d smocratic Senator, the sugar
schedule to suit two or three others, and
60 on. In order to get votes enough to pass
j.. certain interests have to be taken care
uf. irrespective Of the Democratic party's
commitment to the doctrine that pro
section is unconstitutional. and despite
the desire Of the President that these
things shall be free. or with only low
revenue duty attached
This "compromise" bill is not shaped
on any definite plan It is a mere ag-
gregatiou Of the personal desires Of a
humber of Senators, plus the matters in
which the great trusts Of the country
were successful in getting engrafted upon
it. 1t is protective on the trust articles.
a direct tax on .he consumer in some
notably sugar-andl eliminates
1he protective feature on a very large
number of articles. 1t will injure the
great manufacturing industries of the
country, compel an era Of low wages.
and give the trusts every opportunity to
rob the people
How different is the Mckinley law
Its basis principle is that protective
duty shall be laid on all imported arti-
Giles Of the kinds that we produce or
manufacture in this country. and that
these things which, for climatic or other
reasons, We cannot produce In abund
anee, shall be imported free The Nc
Kinley law is drawn on these lines, and
it works satisfactorily The "compro-
mise" bill does not adhere to the princi-
pie of a tariff for revenue only" nor
does it abolish protection entirely. 1t is
a thing Of shreds and patches, cata-
logue of duties without rhyme or reason
Il will be tariff of denominations
A compromise satisfies nobody. 1t
agrees with no principle. 1t is not con-
sisteRt with either party declarations nor
with itself. 1t will be gross injustice,
for one man will find his business rea-
soDsblY protected. while his neighbor
will have no protection at all That the
alleged statesmen" of the Democratic
party should agree to such a measure
again furnishes proof, were any needed,
Of the utter insapacity of that party to
leglslate on national affairs
