THE ST. LOUIS REPUBLIC.

In the present campaign, the newspap-
ers will be the guea,est Of educators, in
teaching the voters Of the land the proper
way to view the political questions of the
day. The Republic, OF 81. Louis, is with
out doubt the most able instructor pub
lished on the Democratic side, as it ex-
plains il almost every issue, by editorial
or learned article why the mass Of the
people should vote for the Democratic
Presidential candidate, In addition, it
prints al. the news Of the doings Of both
parties and all the speeches of statesmen.
The Republic is only So a year, 81 so for
8 months, or 65 cents a month by mail.
Semi-Weekly Republic 81 year.

THE TARIFF BATTLE.

There appears to be good ground for
the objection said to have been expressed
by Major Mckinley to any attempt to
pass the Dingley bill at the present ses-
sion of congress. Should it get through,
il will only please select few OF the
eastern manufacturers aud will raise L
howl upon part Of those not favored.
Mr., Mckinley has probably heard senti-
ment similar TO the following, which
find place in the editorial columns Of
prominent eastern industrial journal, 1t
says: at is to be regretted that the pc
titoners for the passage Of the DiugIey
bill do not specify whether they desire it
passed without amendment. We arc in
formed that the pearl button mHnufac-
turcrs, the iute manufacturers, the in
grain carpet and the silk manufacturers,
as well as the wool growers. all have
amendments which they desire TO offer"
This paper evidently knows whereof
it speaks, and the statement il makes
shows that there are breakers ahead FOR
the next congress when it meets, and
attempts to frame tariff bill on repub-
llcan lines. Every industry in the land,
whether dealing in raw product or man
ufactured goods, will demand protect
i've duty as high rs d mountain thrown
around their respective interests. 1T
will be beyond the range Of possibilities
to accommodate them ALL and then
will come roar. Let US look once
more at the declaration Of the ST. Louis
platform. I'VE are not pledged to any
particular schedules. The question OF
rates is practical one to be governed
by the conditions OF the time and OF pro
duction the ruling and uncompromising
principle is the protection and develop
mcnt Of American labor and indus
try" This is ambiguous and can be
interpreted in many ways, but it was
guage that would lead ali who were to
be affected to believe that the election
Of Mckinley meant a return to the Nc
Kinley tariff. 1t meant no such thing,
nor is it possible to enact any such law
When the time arrives the producers
will find that few crumbs will be
thrown them and the loaf handed over
TO a class of eastern manufacturers
Naturally there will be a sharp contest
but the men who put up the money to
elect Mckinley will come off victorious
and the woolgrowers and lead and lum.
Der men will have to be satiticI with
what they can get.

There was caucus of republican
senators yesterday, called, no doubt,
thus early in the session for the purpose
of comparing notes as to what could be
accomplished and also to ascertain just
where the silver republican senators
stood and to what extent they could be
relied upon. The motive, from a party
point of view, was cOmmendable. All
we're invited to get into the fold, be good
boys, and the past would be forgotten.
1t appears that some OF the silver seng-
tors did not want to be forgiven and
they remained away Those who were
conspicuous by their absence were Du-
bois Of Idaho Pettigrew OF South Da-
kota, Mantle of Montana, Cannon OF
Utah and Squire OF Washington, all of
whom were in the city. Teller of Col

name of Senator Garter is omitted from

fusal Of the silver men to be swallowed

can make their power felt and appre

be needed, and then they can dictate
terms, a proceeding in which they viii

COST OF ELECTiONS.

Under the law tho officers of the state
and county campaign committees in
Montana have been filing their reports
with the secretary Of state. In most in
paign expenses were exceedingly modest,
a condition that is the subject for much
congratulation, and one which vindi-
Gates the enactment of the law There
are connected with the conduct Of every
election certain essential expenses that
should and must be met, but in the
past, under the old rule, committees and
candidates were the victims OF political
highwaymen and petit larceny heelers to
always run into high figure. Accord
ing to the report filed by the democratic
state committee that body handled and
expended total OF $500 for the CAM
pagn, which it surely good showing
and proves that none of the funds were
wasted. No need to make comparisons
but it will not be out of place to men
tion that the republican county commit
tee OF Silver Bow expended over $i,OCO
and that it WIS a dead loss, for not a
man on their ticket was elected In the
light OF the reports, it will not be dis
