Cause of Business Depressiop.


In the face Of the serious peril which
these propositions embody, it would seem
that there could be but one sentiment
among right-thinking citizens as to the
duty of the hour. All men, Of whatever
party. who believe in law, and have some
regard for the sacredness Of Individual and
institutional rights, must unite in defense
of the endangered interests of the nation.
nile the financial issue which has been
thus considered, and which has come, as
the result of the agitation of recent wear
10 occupy peculiar conspicuousness is
admittedly OF primary importance there is
another question which must command
careful and serious attention. Our finan-
cial and business condition is at this mo-
ment one Of almost unprecedented depres-
sion. Our great industrial system Is Sc
fiously paralyzed. Production In many
important branches Of manufacture has al
together ceased. Capital is without re-
munerative employment. Labor is idle.
the revenues of the government are insuf-
nc1ent to meet It's ordinary and necessary
expenses These conditions are not the re-
suit Of accident. They are the outcome of
a mistaken economic policy deliberately
enacted and applied. It would not be diff
ficult, and would not involve any violent
disturbance of our existing commercial al
system, to enact necessary tariff modifca-
tions along the lines of experience For
the first two fiscal years of the so-called
Mckinley tariff the receipts from customs
were $SoU,ooi,SSU. AT this writing the Will
son tariff act has been In force for nearly
two full fiscal years; but the total receipts,
actual and estimated, cannot exceed $312-
441.947. A steady deficit constantly depict
ing the resources Of the government and
trenching even upon it's gold reserve has
brought about public distrust and business
disaster. 1t has. too necessitated the sale
of $2i2, ,000. 900 Of boEds, thereby Increasing
to that extent the national debt. It viii
be remembered that in no year Of the more
than a quarter of century of continuous
republican administration succeeding the
civil war, when our industries were disin-
tegrated. and all the conditions Of business
were more or less disturbed, was the ma :
tional debt increased by a single dollar; 1t
was on the contrary, steadily and rapidly
as this it Is idle to argue against the ne
cessity Of some sort Of a change in our fis-
cal laws. The democratic party declares
for a remedy by direct taxation upon a
selected class Of citizens. 1t opposes any
application of the protective principle.
The Remedy to Be Applied.
Our party holds that by a wise adjust
ment Of the tariff, conceived in modera-
ton and with a view to stability, we may
secure all needed revenue. and it declares
that in the event of its restoration to pow.
er 1t will seek to accomplish that re-
suit. It holds, too, that 1t is the duty
OF the government to protect and encour-
age In all practicable ways the develop
ment of domestic industries the elevation
Of home labor ard the enlargement of
the prosperity Of the people. It does not
favor any form of legislation which would
lodge In the government the power to do

ceived by Lawrence Doran, clerk. who immedi-
atey telephoned for the wagon
Father Hill is one Of the most popular priests in
the city and the of his death spread rapidly.
Many of his parishoners started Immediately for
the priests house. When they reached there they
were greeted by Father Hill himself, who as
much puzzled any one else 10 account for the
strange rumor of his death.
Many Of the women happy at finding
him alive that they shed tears Of JOY. The rumor
Of the priests death reached the Sisters of Charity
In the Orphan Asylum. which is next TO the church
in Congress-st.. and several of their number were
among those who visited the priests house.
Shortly before o'clock. the undertaker's assist
ant who had received the message arrived at the
priests house to start the work Of preparing the
body. pending the arrival of the wagon He was
astonished when Informed that Father bill was
alive and was even then eating supper He said
that the person who telephoned to him. in answer
to his query TO who the sender was. replied;
Father O Brien" The latter is one Of the assistant
priests OF the parish AID naturally disclaimed any
KIN )wledge Of tho message.
Doran hastily returned the store to counter
mand the order for the wagon. An effort was made
to ascertain through the central office from what
station the message was sent but the girl who an
swered the call had left for the day. Father Hill
Is perplexed the affair. and declares that he
has not tho slightest idea who was responsible for
