The first campaign OF education on
the tariff was one of argument. 1t
carried the country for reform, but
had no practical effect because a Re-
publican Senate blocked the way.
The present campaign of education
is one of experience-the best school.
master. Logic may fail to convince,
sophistries may deceive, eloquence
may beguile, but object-lessons in
struct. Hard facts are not easily got
over. The country is seeing for itself
the operation and effects of tariff re-
formed in part, and the demonstration
is more effective than all the speeches
that we're ever made or all the articles
that were ever written.
Wool was made free, as it was for
forty years in this country and has
always been i'll every other manufac-
turing country in the world. The
duties on wooden manufactures were
correspondingly reduced. Are the
farmers: ruined? Are our wooden
mills given over to the owls and the
muskrats? Have wages gone down to
the "pauper level of Europe"
Quite the contrary. Within month
there has been an average rise in
price of wool OF two cents pound.
The price of sheep is increasing. Idle
mills have started up on full time.
Thirty-eight new factories were con-
tracted for in the first six months of
this year, against only seventeen in
the same period last year. The wages
of woollen operatives have been volun-
tarily increased from 10 to Il per
cent. And the people are getting
more and better and cheaper cloth
ing.
The duties on iron ore and on coal
were reduced nearly one-half. The
iron industry has not been so flourish.
ing in years as it is to day, and wages
in it everywhere advanced.
Tin ore was made free and the duty
on tin-plates reduced one-half. The
industry is increasing and prospecting
as never before.
The duties on cottons were reduced.
Seventy-three new mills were built or
contracted for during the first half of
this year. The great factories are run
ming full time with increased wages.

Scores of thousands of Democrats in
this city went to the polls last No
vember and defeated their own party
i'll order to unseat bosses. A multi
tude of Republicans are at this mo-
ment organizing to expel the evil
principle of bossism from their party
and to break the power of Platt even
at cost of defeating the party. The
most respected Republicans in this
city are earnestly helping to carry out
this programme. These are signs of
the times. They mean reform. They
mean restoration of popular self
government. They mean that Platt
must go to join Croker.

If p eople woula Remember

That the tailor down the street can
give as good bargain and as good flt
as the tailor "up North" that the
clothing store in the next block sells
the same clothes at the same price as
the clothing stores in Philadelphis;
that the dry goods merchant two blocks
away can come as near giving you what
you want for q dollar as any other dry
goods merchant within a thousand
miles; that dollar doesn't get any
bigger by sending it to New York; that
when man helps his neighbor he
betters himself; that the dollar spent
down the street may some day get back
into your pocket; that the dollar sent to
New York has gone glimmering for
time and eternity. If people would
remember, there would be less kicking
and more contentmentin this vacilating
world.
