BLAND RETIRED EARLY.
Had No Doubt That the Right Man
Would Be Chosen.

Lebanon, Mo-. July 9.-Mr. Bland did
not come 10 hoauquarters at all this
afternoon. The cay was hot and he re-
Inained a home reading the news. Dur
ing most OF the arteI:iuon he was seated
in his great willow rocker on the shaded
porch OF his home.
When the news OF the adoption of the
platform was announced, Mr.. Bland said:
no mistakes have been made at Chic ago
and | feel more confident than ever that
none viii be. That platform is the only
salvation OF the many, and they cannot
beat it.

want of that policy for years. 1t is not

hour tonight. Gen. Mitchell remaining in

The Tariff as an Issue.

From Leslie's Weekly:
1t is quite apparent that the dem
ocratic managers greatly underrate
the attachment Of the American peo-
pie to the protective principle. Their
belief that they can relegate this
question to che rear in the coming
campaign affords conclusive evidence
of this fact. Nothing could be more
false than the pretense that the tariff
question is of no real Importance.
The truth is that many, whether
rightly or wrongly, regard it as the
paramount issue awaiting decision.
The demand for the nomination of
Major Mckinley derives its specific
force from the fact that he is the
representative and embodiment of
the protective principle, and is as
ISOLATED in the public mind with
the policy which has contributed to
the development of our industries
and to the promotion of our general
prosperity. 1t is this fact which
draws to him especially the support
of the working classes in every in
dustrlal state of the Union, and
The true northerner. [volume] (Paw Paw, Mich.) 1855-1920, 1896-06-17

which, at the same time, enlists the
sympathy and support of our great
manufacturing interests. 1t could
not well be otherwise than that the
people should desire the modification
of our existing tariff policy. 1t
was claimed for the Wilson bill, when
it was enacted, that it would speed
lily vindicate itself to the public. 1t
would, we were assured, greatly
increase the national prosperity.
The fact is, however, that from the
very start it has proved itself more
effectual in producing a deficit than
in supplying the revenue necessary
to meet the expenses of the govern
ment. The treasury department has
been compelled to meet its neces-
sites by the sale of bonds, and the
deficit is steadily growing larger,
with no prospect of any turn in the
tide or a betterment of existing con-
ditions. 1t goes without saying
that every intelligent citizen must
regard with disfavor system which
thus continually augments the pub
lie debt, while at the same time
operating to the prejudice of our
industries. Every man who is at
all familiar with business affairs is
aware that economic conditions are,
if any thing, more unfavorable to. day
than they were two years ago. Our
productive energies are not remu-
neratively employed, our capital is
not finding profitable investment,
our skilled labor is, as TO many
branches of production, practically
paralyzed. These conditions cam
not continue much longer without
very grave and serious disaster. The
attempt, in the face of such condi-
tons, to create an impression that
the tariff issue is of no consequence,
is SO absolutely absurd on the face of
it that we can only wonder at the
temerity which essays it.
The true northerner. [volume] (Paw Paw, Mich.) 1855-1920, 1896-06-17

THERE are two standards by which
a party may be judged, when it asks
the support of the people at the
polls. It's record and its promises.
No party can escape responsibility
for either. No matter how fair the
promises of the democracy may be
in this years campaign, the party
will be judged even more by its rec
ord than by its platform. The record
of democracy is marked with depres-
sion, deficiencies in revenue and
hard times. The record of the DEM
ocratic party is amply sufficient to
to condemn it, and no platitudes in
serted in its platform can be suffi-
GENTLY potent for its redemption.

SENATOR Teller, republican, is
more talked about for the democratic
for the presidency than
any other man. Is the democracy
hard up for presidential timber, or
does it see the necessity for infusing
principles into its ranks?

The Convention.

Inc COuVenIlOu.
The republican national conven-
ton is in session at St. Louis, and
after its work is concluded, the cam
paign of go will open up in earnest.
What will be the issues? This ques-
ton is occupying a much greater
place in the public mind than is the
matter of who will be the candi-
dates.
First and foremost, the tariff will
be an issue. 1t will and should over
shadow every other question this
year. The business depression, un-
employed labor, revenue deficiency
and bond issues are all directly at
tributable to the Ubiquitous legisla-
tive abortion known as the Wilson
German tariff. The people have
become thoroughly convinced that
the best "tarif for revenue" and the
only reliable one, is tariff for
protection. The free trade demo-
cracy will not be permitted to dis
guise its hideous free trade features
behind currency mask, or any other
disguise, as it is clearly anxious to
do. The tariff question is of pri-
mary Importance, and both parties
must come out openly and show
their true colors on this question.
The declaration of the St. Louis
convention on the tariff will be posi-
tive and unequivocal.
The only other issue that is at
tracing, or is likely to attract any
considerable amount of attention, is
the matter of our currency. Both
parties are divided on this question,
on sectional lines that divide the
east from the west. The split in the
prohibition party on the currency
question is only forerunner of what
may happen in the greater parties.
What stand will be taken by the re-
publican party? This question over
shadows all others in interest as the
convention is commencing its work.
The eastern republicans are contend
ing for single gold standard declar-
alton; western men, under the lead
Of Senator Teller, demand free sill
yer and threaten to bolt if their de-
mands are not conceded; the great
middle states occupy conservative
ground and are apt to be the force
that will hold the party together.
Almost without exception, these
states in their own conventions have
adopted conservative platforms, favor
ing no deprecated currency, but the
largest use of silver compatible with
maintenance of the parity of the
two metals; Michigan, Ohio, Indi- !
ana and Illinois may be cited as
indicating the currency sentiment of
the middle states. The Indiana plat
form, mentioned at length by the
NoRTHERNER a few weeks since as
an ideal exposition of good repubh
canism, seems to find especial favor
and is quite likely to be the declara-
ton of the national republican con-
vention. Such plank would make
the party much stronger than would
the policy asked by either extreme
faction. The democracy, meanwhile,
is SIN the air." waiting to take
stand opposed to the republicans, no
matter what that stand may be, real
izing its only hope of success is IN
detracting attention from the main
issue, the tariff. The adoption of a
conservative financial plank by the
republican convention will leave the
democracy without a single principle
for which to contend-a party with
out an issue.
