Our readers will notice an interview in
this mornings Astorian which substan-
tiates the rumors before hinted at in thes
columns that the Seattle canal scheme
was fake, pure and simple, and that
ali the magnificent prospects of the much
heralded enterprise were purely mythical.
Mr. Weston's statements, coming as they
do from an bipartisan source and from
man who has lived and worked right
in the middle of the destitution caused
by the g1ltterlng bubble, are entitled to
entire credence. We are not surprised
at the action of the railroads in Turing
men from good homes to destitution
in a strange city, but 1t certainly seems
to us as If the newspapers Of Seattle
have by their persistent booming of a
shaky project overstepped al bounds OF
decency In the name of common human
ity they ought to try to remedy the
condition of affairs that has been brought
about by their stupid and shameful ignor-
ance.

THE TARIFF TEST.

That open confession 10 good for the
soul does not seem to be believed by
many Democrats though since the eec-
tion last year few have tried 1t with
encouraging results. But the New York
Sun, which shines for ALL shines for itself
In blurting out the truth with fire..
quency rare in Democratic journals, and
has grown impatient of Democratic
shams and false pretenses about the
tariff, 1t has too much common sense
and common honesty to enjoy the GUS
tomary Democratic falsehood that the
disasters which followed the decision of
the people to tear up protection and
adopt Democratic free trade were due to
the Republican tarlff, or the falsehood
that the tariff adopted In 1894 was In any
sense what the Democrats had promised,
or the still more foolish falsehocd that
the recovery which followed epmocratic
defeat last year and the adjournment OF
a Democratic congress was the effect
of a Democratic tariff. On the contrary
It recognizes the force OF tho argument
presented In the Republican platform
of Pennsylvania, and takes notice that
the Republicans In ALI future campaigns
viii argue; 'The country was prosperous
when the Democrats brought on
panic by proposing to smash protection
''and start up a tariff for revenue only.
we blocked them in the senate and
saved the country, and business began
ito revive when protectlonlst house of
representatives was elected" Then the
Sun remarks:
II must be admitted that they will be
able to make a connected and plausible
tariff story, which the Democrats, hav-
ing stuck neither to fish, fowl, nor good
red herring viii have some difficulty In
doing. The Democrats made protec-
Zionist tariff, but they are estopped
from saying so by the unpleasant fact
that they promised to unmake such
tariff and make one radically different.
To tell the square truth they must say
that they He'd to the country, and, OF
course. a confession like that win never
be made
The Sun might have added that the
Democrats are now lying to the country
both by pretending, where they have to
deaf with workingmen in protected In
dustrles. that their tariff is inteliigently
end consistently protective, and at the
same time. when they have to deal with
the free trade fanatics, by denying that
they made 1t protective in spots, in
the hope TO save themselves in manu-
featuring states from the Overwhelming
defeat which came nevertheless. The
Democratic tariff bears the same rela-
tion TO genuine Protection that a big
ievee. with several great gaps In it. bears
to an effective defence OF the ruined
Plantations behind II.

icy and its plans, by their votes In 1891.
The fact that wages were put down
about twenty per cent all around, IN
some branches much more, and in some
others less,by the closing of works nat
urally and inevitably following the DEM
ocratlc success in 1892 with free trade
policy, these journals are shameless
enough to attribute to the Mckinley tar

The recovery of about half that loss,
which fairly marches with the fact that
the Democrats failed to do half what they
intended and tried to do, these journals
quote as proof that the Democratic policy
brings better wages. And, unlike the
Sun, they imagine that the voters are
to be cheated by pretenses so impudentiy

rHr MONROE pocrRgNE ANp CUBA

In a letter to the IEan of Buchan, dated
April %, 1898, says correspondent OF
the Nation, George Washington expressed
the opinion that 1t should be the policy
OF the United States ito be little heard
OF In the great world Of politics." He
further observer, II believe 1t Is the sin
cere wish Of United America to have
nothing to do with the political intrlgnes
or the squabbles of European nations;
but, on the contrary, to exchange COM
modltles and live In peace with all the
inhabitants Of the earth, and this am
persuaded they will do, IL rightfully 1t
can be done"
This was wise logic at the time 1t was
given, 1O2 years ago. This country then
contained but four millions of pioneer
people, oppressed by debts created for
the war for independence Would Wash
ington give the same advice II he were
now president of a rich, powerful nation
Of 70 millions? The population of the
United States In 1903 was nearly million
less than that CT Illinois at this time,
while the wealth was less than half the
value Of that in this state. at is true
that little boats should keep near the
shore, but larger ones may venture fur
ther out. The people of the United States
do not desire to interfere in the intrlgues
and squabbles of European nations. At
the same time they are in a position
where they need not be imposed upon by
any nation If they want to resist, or to
punish insult or aggression. While not
inte[-e in any European quarrels.
has not the time come to notify Spain
to step down and out of Cuba and to
remove Its carpet-baggers, swords, boots
and spurs, to the Iberlan peninsula?
Would 1t not be In accordance with the
spirit Of the Monroe doctrine to serve
notice on Spain to pack up and vamoose
from that island?

The first thing that wifi confront con-
gress when 1t assemblies in December,
will be the passage of legislation to pro-
duce sufficient revenue to meet govern
ment expenditures. The constantly In
creasing deficit is alarming. The Dem
ocratic tariff bill has been in effect for
a year, and has demonstrated it's made
quacy to provide revenue for running the
government machinery The deficit is
now nearly fourteen million dollars for
the fiscal year to date, and this is the
state of things after all unusual condi-
tlons which attend the Inauguration Of a
new tariff have passed and business has
settled down after adjusting itself to the
new situation.

As for the work OF party organization,
that can DO going on quietly all the
time. National, state and county COM
mlttees can begin working now and keep
II up steadily till the close Of next year.
But that work can be carried on with
out turmoil or uproar, and without in
sisting that business men and voters
generally shall be thrown into state
of protracted nervous excitement There
is not one valid argument to be made
against short campaign next year. That
is the kind OF campaign the people want
and the national committees should give
IL to them.
