IL has come TO be common thing to
hear the tariff spoken of as dead
issue Democrats generally recognize
the fact that their party has made such
n miserable failure of it's efforts Mt re-
form that they would gladly see the
subject relegated 10 the rear until their
folly Is forgotten. But IL Is still a live
subject and one that will be given at
tention by congress-and IL will be
present in the coming national cam
paign, no matter who may be the can
didates of the respective parties.
In n recent number of the American
Economist there Is given the opinions
OF i0l senator's and representatives In
congress, and OF large number OF the
editors Of prominent newspapers In all
parts OF the country, all OF whom be-
licve in the necessity for tariff re-
vision along the line of protection 20
American industries
There are letters from three con
grcssmen OF Kentucky who declare
themselves 20 be protectionists, and
they are joined by three from Ten
nessec, four from Missouri, one from
Texas. two from West Virginia and a
senator from Delaware OF the news
paper opinions there are letters from
the west and south quite as pronounced
IN favor OF the protection idea as any
from New England.
fanybody can read these letters and
still hold to the belief that the misera-
Bile failure made by the last congress
20 better the condition OF the country's
trade and Industries will be allowed "a
stand unchanged he will read to little
purpose. The lesson set by Grover
Cleveland and his party has beea q
