/ ENACT THE WILL or THE PEOPLE
The principles Of tariff pro aud con
have been thoroughly discussed, and
the people of the country have been
thoroughly educated upon the subject
AS a test of that education aud az
further test of The opinions on the
subject that have been arrived az by
the voters of this country, the princi-
pies advocated by the Democracy
were embodied in the Democratic
platform and Mr.. Cleveland selected
as ita standard bearer. His overwheIm.
ing majority was final and concIu
sive settlement of that issue. Be it
remem bered that majOritiss rule in
this country. Under this condition
of affairs what is the use Of discuss-
ing the tariff question any longer?
The representatives in congress OF the
people know their will and all these
representatives have to do is to lormu
late that will into laws and print
these laws in the statute books OF the
federal government and thereby give
us fixed and permanent tariff by
which the business Of the country can
be adjusted.
It is all nonsense now at this late
date for the protectionists to attempt
to keep in operation tariff for the
benefit of certain class with Incl
dental revenue for the government.
The people have said, "reverse the
whole thing and give us tariff for
revenue Only, with as little incidental
protection or bonus TO manufacturers
as Is possible under any kind o collec.
ton Of revenue through the custom
house IT the present members OF
congress are either unableto construct
such tariff system az the people
have declared for or are unwilling to
do so, il is their duty to resign i'm
mediately and give the people an
opportunity to send men to congress
who have both the capacity and will
lingness to carry out the sovereign
will of the people, Don't keep your
places and sit there like bump on

derstand exactly what the people
require and are conscientious enough
to comply with their demands.

Governor Hogg fully recognizes that
the great question of transportation
has to he fully solved before the cattle
men of Texas will have lair play in
the markete His plan, or the plan
for the solution Of that question, is to
establish harbors of sufficient capaci-
ty for the largest vessels, and also the
ablishment of trans-ocean lines of
freight merchantmen so that we will
have the advantage of water transport
tation from our gates, and shorter
routes to the cattle markets of the
world than Our rivals in that trade.
