VITAL ISSUES.

Why is the tariff not now the issue
that it has been in the past? It is
/ because McKinleyism has been recog-
nized, even by ultra Republicans, as
the climax of their system, and as
now presented the Republican issue is
one TO perpetuate it. 1t is the old
story Taxation for private purposes
! is first eXhorted as a favor, under
! one or another specious plea of result
ing public benefits. and when control
of the fountains of political power are
gained, the favors are construed into
vested rights.
We speak of the money oligarchy
with reference to our silver agitation,
| but it is the same one that has been
referred to by Democratic platforms
with reference to the tariff. The de-
monetiZation of silver was but one of
several ways through which the pro-
perty of the masses has been absorbed
by an indirect method of confiscation
Military tribute as means of ex-
acting the wealth of a people has gen.
orally ceased. 1t was clumsy by COM
parison with the methods Of the Re-
publican party, whether applied by
Sherman or Mckinley. It was easier
to appropriate property by imposing a
tax on articles of common necessity,
if the people could be made believe
that the British, the French or the
Germans paid it. 1t was easier 10 ap-
propriate property by hypothecating
the vast credit system through Jug
glery of the money equivalent. 1t was
all the easier, when, in case the gov
eminent could not be the direct factor
in the scheme of spoliation, it invested
privileged classes with powers to i'm
pose such taxation as they chose, as
it did when it closed the markets of
Europe in the face Of the American
consumer, and opened the hoodgates
of European ujurX upon the defense
less citizens.
People have wondered at the pro-
digious vitality of the Democratic
party. From the logic of events it has
received blows that no other party
ever survived. 1t also has made tacti-
cal mistakes that, by any ordinary
calculation, should utterly have dis
organized it. But the logic of the
slavery question was a legacy of two
centuries and was interviewer in the
destinies of the republic before it was
born. From the party's mistakes il
has emerged by its loyalty to its tradi-
tons, and the corner stone of these
traditions is opposition to confiscation
by taxation in favor of any class
whatever, and for any purpose what
ever except the legitimate expenses of

HARD SHEDDING FOR REpuBs.

What will the Republican party do
for an issue next year?
There is every prospect that business
viii have improved so much under the
Democratic tariff measure, that pro-
lection will have lost its glamour 1t
will be no easy task for the Republi-
cans to convince the country of the
superiority of an economic system
under which panic came. over an op-
posing system under which prosperity
is emerging from distress
II will undoubtedly be lhe policy of
the Republican leaders to avoid, as
far as possible, any distinct utterance
on the troublous silver issue. If this
view be not correct, then it will go
before the country as the advocate-in-
chief of "sound money!
The sectional issue has disappeared
by a general consensus Of Republican
opinion. That party looks forward to
conquests in the south, and for the
first time since the war ne demand

wounds Of war have at last healed
The legislative record of the party
has been egregiously failure.

CoNcErr, NOT KNOWLEDGE.

The ability of the Republican party
to run anything and everything better
than their less intelligent and less
patriotic fellow citizens is a familiar
self-assertion OF that party. The finan-
cial question, for instance, is one upon
which, in the eastern states at least,
they never tire of boasting of their
superior learning and. record. By
parity Of conceit they Indignantly de-
nounce their opponents for incapacity.
Let's see. The last financial measure
of the Republican party was the Sher-
man purchase act This oct was bit
terly denounced throughout the east
as the cause of the monetary panic of
1893, and was quite generally criticized
in the west as a miserable makeshift.
an unsatisfactory compromise neither
fish, flesh nor fowl Is it upon this
record of incompetence and disaster
that the Republicans intend to go to
the country in proof of their know-it-
all claim?

THE BICYCLE.

What the bicycle is bringing the world
to has been startlingly illustrated in the
little Vermont town of Vandam, where
minority, are obliged to carry whistles
and blow signals of warning at all peri
louS crossings. The Vandamers who do
not ride the steel steeds are paying
pretty dearly for their whistles, and un.
doubtedly pronounce the name of their
village nowadays with an extra empha-
sis on the last syllable. If the fashion
should spread the unhappy premenader
would be confronted by sad destiny OF
