The Democrats are great on de-
ficits-leaving bills for others to pay.
1t is now estimated that the federal de-
ficiency will be somewhere between
$4,000, 900 and $4,000. 900, while in
Texas Mr.. Culbersons reign has piled
up s500,OO0 on the $4,000. 900 left by
Mr.. Hogg in one year, and this, too,
with taxes higher than for fifteen years.

We hear a great deal about organized
labor, but the Hon. Carroll d. Wright,
of the national bureau Of statistics, is
reported as estimating that only l.
100000 of the 100000 of American
wage-earners are organized in any sort
of trades unions. 1t would seem from
his estimate that but little over one
man in every fifteen belongs to and la
Dor organization. No wonder the

Senator Sherman VIII probably live
long enough yet to drain to the dregs
the cup of gall he has prepared for the
people. His methods and his record are
being laid before the people in a way
that is not calculated to add to his hap
piness. In a recent speech in the senate,
Senator Morgan INDUCED in most en-
phatic criticisms of his record.
He referred to the intrigues before
national conventions and the wind
shaken platforms" of these bodies. In
his judgment the emergency tariff and
bond bills were constructed merely as a
part of the platform to be laid before
a national convention next summer
and not with any purpose to enact
them as laws. Mr. Morgan criticised

RESTORATION or RECIPROCITY

In an interview short time ago
Senator Sherman ,intimated doubt us
to whether the reciprocity features OF
the Mckinley law will be restored by
the next congress. He remarked that the
reciprocity clauses in the law of 1890
had Il tendency to reduce the revenues
of the government and to some extent
brought that law into diSrepute. This
is new indictment of reciprocity and
one which we think Senator Sherman
would find it very difficult, if not i'm
possible, TO sustain. 1t is entirely out
of accord with the republican national
platform, which says: "Ne believe the
repeal of the reciprocity arrangements
negotiated by the last republican adj
mlniStratlon was n national Calamity
and we demand their renewal and OK
tension on such terms as will equaliZc
our trade with other nations remove
the restrictions which now obstruct the
sale of American products in the ports
of other countries and secure enlarged
markets for the products of our farms.
forests and factories" This was given
hearty approval by Major Mckinley in
his letter of acceptance and he re-
peatedly spoke in favor of the restora
ton of reciprocity during the cam
paign. Thus that principle was firmly
liked in the public mind rs leading
feature of republican policy and exerted
no inconsderable influence favorable to
the party.
We confidently believe that n vast
majority of the manufacturers and the
agricultural producers of the country
are in favor of restoring reciprocity and
of giving it the farthest practicable ex-
tension. There is no antagonism be-
tween protection and reciprocity, but
on the contrary they work together most
tremendously. If 1t be true that reel
procity tends to reduce revenues. which
Is not shown by our brief experience
with Its operation, there Is compensa-
ton in the enlargement of our foreign
trade. The reciprocity arrangements en-
tered into under the Harrison admin
istration We're of very decided benefit TO
the country. Our trade relations with
nearly every country with which we
had reciprocity were improved and there
cannot be reasonable doubt that had
the system been maintained they would
have continued to improve. Reciprocity
was not given fair trial, yet its value
