$50 apiece, while others declare Just as
positively that the profit on first-class
picycles sold at 500 each is already

reduction is possible. AS usual in con-
troversies Of this sort each side is right
little bit and wrong a great deal. A
retailer can make more money on some
wheels at $40 each than he can on
others at $780, and that this is So is
easily accounted for. Large manu-

the present year, have been selling

DON'T KNOW CLEVELAND.

Senator Brown in his explanation of
his vote in favor of tariff and against
silver the other day, said: 81 voted
as did because wanted tariff law
and as high tariff on wool as we can
get. My object was to get that bill
before the Senate and amend the wool
clause, striking out the qualifications
and the ad valorem duties provided
for in the Mckinley bill and putting
specific tariff on all kinds of wool. [
think a moderate tariff bill of that
kind might pass both houses and be
approved by the President That
statement does not do very great
credit to Mr.. Browns Judgment or
knowledge of men. If Senator Brown
has persuaded himself that the House
tariff bill, even when modified as he
says it was his purpose to modify it,
would ever receive the approval of
President Cleveland, he certainly de-
ceived himself In his regular mes
sage to Congress President Cleveland
emphatically declared there was no
necessity for increased taxation to in
crease the revenues of the govern
ment: and for a senator to suppose
that after such declaration Grover
Cleveland would give executive sane
ton to professed emergency tariff
bill to do that which he declared was
not necessary to do. shows that that
senator has not studied the character
Of Grover Cleveland. 1t is useless for
Republican legislators to hope that
any tariff legislation increasing tariff
duties can secure the approval of the
present occupant Of the White House.
And it is equally vain for them to
suppose that they can secure the neces-
sary two-thirds majority in the Senate
to pass it over the Presidents veto.
Therefore it is useless for senators to
waste their time in passing tariff
measures and least of all on such a
tariff measure as this House tariff bill
which was neither legislative fish,
flesh or fowl 1t is not a Democratic tar
if bill Of course. The Republicans de-

SENATOR BROWN AND SILVER.

''My vote was no act of hostility to
ward silver. We have already passed
one silver bill in the senate, and the
cause of silver viii gain nothing by
annexation to the tariff bill. A free
coinage bill would surely be defeated,
a light tariff bill might possibly be
carried
Such is the explanation of Senator
Brown for his vote in favor of an i'm
possible tariff bill instead of for free
silver substitute; and this, too, from
man who said in accepting his cleo
ton for senator: 81 shall always re-
member those things which I know you
are cherishing most in your hearts.
shall try to remember at all times,
and on all occasions the great need
of the west, to make that which we
produce here the life blood of the ma
ton Qoud applause); not merely by
one act, nor merely by one outburst,
not merely by demanding that some
particular pet bill be passed, but I
shall remember at all times, and on
all occasions, in season and out of sea-
son, that which will be my duty to do
everything I can to advance the reIa-
tive price of silver, and shall do it Zap
plause), and hope finally the great goal
will be reached which the nation de-
mands, that which the west alone is to-
day voicing, and which is to the good
of all, the passage of such legislation
as shall make the free coinage Of sill
yer possible at the ratio of sixteen to
one" (Applause)
Now it may be urged that Senator
Brown was pledged to protective tar
if as well as to silver, and that is
granted; but it will scarcely be denied.
even by Republicans, that the present
tariff law is protective. Moreover, there
could be no reasonable hope entertain
ed that tariff legislation was even a
remote possibility with Grover Cleve-
land in the White House, and nearly
as many Democrats in the senate as
there are Republicans, hence there
could be no hope of passing a tariff bill
over the Presidents veto. Under these
circumstances one would think that a
man as definitely pledged to silver as
Senator Brown was, would have seen
the line of his duty best in supporting
silver instead of tariff.
Moreover, the only possible way the
western Republicans can bring to pass
any legislation favorable to silver is
by serving notice upon the east that
there Will be no more protective tariff
for the east unless there is free silver
for the whole country, and it is evident
from the action Of the Republican sena-
tor from Utah that they will not force
that alternative upon their party and
therefore, so far as the Republican SEN
ators from this state are concerned.
there will be no free coinage of silver
secured by action Of the Republican
party.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1896-02-18

Republican papers are beginning to
rally to the defense of Senator's Brown
and Cannon because of their vote on
the tariff bill. The Provo ENQUIRER
says: Senator Brown did all right in
voting for the tariff revenue bill. we
fail to see that more can be gained bv
the senate in passing at this state an
other free silver bill. The one which
passed a couple of weeks ago met its
fate at the house. where an over
whelming anti-silver majority holds
sway. Because, therefore, we cannot
get free coinage Of silver, is it any
reason why we should declare that we
will not take needed tariff for reve-
nue. and for protection?' Where will
this needed tariff for revenue and for
protection" come from? If protective
tariff can be had in the present con-
gress, so can free silver law. Explain
and excuse the vote of the senators
from Utah as the Republican press
will, the fact remains that they sub
ordinated the silver issue to the pro
tective tariff, a live issue to an irnpos-
srble issue for the coming presidential
campaign.

THE ExcrrABbE vExEzUELANs.

The people of Venezuela appear to
become unduly excited over every move
of an English vessel. A story comes
from Caracas that British vessel is
taking soundings at the mouth of the
Orinoco, and this proyokes much war
like comment. There may or may not
be an English ship at the mouth of the
Orinoco taking soundings. 1t is a mat
ter of no great moment one way or the
other. If the people of Venezuela will
pause long enough to reflect they will
very soon come to the conclusion that
England is not going to do anything
in Venezuela at the present time that
can in any way give offense to the
United States. The decision of her
majesty's government to submit its
case to the Venezuelan boundary COM
mission now sitting in Washington. is
ample evidence of this fact.
The eXcitable Venezuelans think and
act, to judge by the dispatches from
Caracas. as though there were an alli-
ance offensive and defensive between
their country and this. There is not
Moreover, they should realize that the
government of the United States has
not undertaken, and will not under
take, to champion all their quarrels.
1t has simply undertaken to uphold and
maintain the Monroe doctrine, a doc
trine formulated and promulgated by
President Monroe for the protection
and preservation Of the interests and
integrity Of the United States. This it
will do. This government interviewed
in the Venezuela-British Guiana boun-
Diary dispute because it regarded Brit
ish aggressions as menacing its peace
and welfare. Venezuela's interests are
incidental to our own; this should be
borne in mind.
If our Venezuelan friends will re-
member all these things they will save
themselves much trouble. If they act
unwisely and precipitate trouble with
England they may lose a friend and
gain nothing. The findings of the
boundary commission must be awaited
by all the parties in interest before any
further steps can be taken. Self-inter-
est should teach our Venezuelan friends
that this is their only safe course at
present.
