I'm both the Republican platforms OF
New York and Ohio the great industrial
revival is attributed TO the election Of
Republican Congress. At the same
time the widespread depression in bus
mess which we have left behind is cred
tied u9 TO general fear Of legislation that
was Threatened" by a Democratic Con
ress 1t is suggested that this is
falsshood and trickery in politics de-
generated TO the last stage Of Stiffness
and imbecility.
lis the most arrant folly to pretend
,hst the American people were over
taken by depression and gloom that
lasted for more than a year, that their
mills. factories and shops were closed
and their commerce stagnated, because
they had themselves elected a Congress
to change tar.n schedules affecting a
comparatively small portion Of their
interests. tits still more absurd to pre-
-e1d that the depression and gloom
were d,ss.pared. and that the fires Of
furnaces and FORCES were rekiadled, not
because Of the removal Of grieyous OBJ
structions TO Industry, but because Of
the election Of a Republican House Of
Representatives incapable of turning a
wheel Of legislation without the concur
renee of a Senate that is not Republican
and Of O Democratic President
People who are influenced by such
childish scare crows Of politics believe
20 hobsoblins and fairies. As for the
Republican bosses VINO have invented
them. they have great faith in popular
guu.bil-y. but their main hope is to
divert attention from those measures of
Republican legislation which caused
-he monetary reaction Of 1898 and the IN
lus.rial depression which afflicted the
country in 1894 They wish the country
20 forget as speedily as possible, the
sherman Silver act, which undermined
the basis Of the currency. and the bar
barous Mckinley tariff, which in the
name Of Protection crippled American
manufactures by grieyously taxing raw
materials. and which made war upon
commerce and neigaboring republics IN
der the sham Of Reciprocity.
While anxious that the country should
forget the past. the sherman Silver act,
the .u.quities Of the Mckinley tariff, ths
Treasury see-saw Of Teenbacks and
gold by which the public finances are
perpeUally disturbed, the Federal Elec-
ton law. the Force bin and all. the
leaders Of the Republican party invoke
the sentimental and fantastic in politics
the better 10 conceal their designs for
the future. In the rapid evolution Of
public opinion they dare no longer avow
their purposes 10 restore the Mckinley
tariff. but they vaguely threaten TO dis
urb the Industrial peace in their reck-
less denunclatious of the new law. If
they can persuade the country that the
evils Of the past are due TO fear Of the
wicked Democracy, and that future pros
perity depends on a Republican restora-
ton. they hope TO evade the duty Of
removing the financial abuses for which
their party is responsible But there IS
such a thing as making TOO large a draft
on popular credulity.

ANOrHER HUGr CaNAr. SCHEME


For many years there has been more
or less talk Of a project to connect the

The new canal VIII be nearly 80 feet

traverse it's entire length in six days
OF course, the object in view is purely
strategic, in order to enable the entire
Russian navy to be rapidly concenrat-
ed In either sea; bu, in Russia no stron-
ser incentive could be imagined for has

The difference between the political
methods Of the Democratic and Republic
can parties is thus succincty given by
the Philadelphia Record: Democrats all
ways speak out IN meeting. have the
fullest discussion possible and finally
unite in favor Of the mai3ri-y's plat
form. Republicans adopt the gag rule,
silence all opposition, sul-ify them
selves and their constituents and drown
every protesting voice wi,l the delus.ve
appeal Let us have harmony Har-
m0ny IS excellent in its way, bu, ic
should frequently yield to the dictates
