POINTS AND OPINIONS.

The Ohio republicans call the Zanesville meeting Hove feast" The emblem of love in Ohio is a knife up the sleeve.-St. Louis Republic.
 As far as can be ascertained at the present juncture, the new tariff scheme most favored by congress is con- structed on the old-fashioned, crazy quilt pattern.-Chicago Record Qnd.)
 In 1896 we imported more raw wool by S26, ,343, ,s04 than in 1894. And we exported more manufactured wool by $765, 5,274 in 1896 than in 1894. That's how the Wilson law blighted the woolen industry in this city.-Utica Observer.
 Those who are in position to get in on the ground floor of republican protection are now eagerly looking for ward to the 18th of March, when an extra session of congress will begin to rip up and tear up along tariff lines. Prosperity must take a back seat for the present.-Binghamt (N. Y.) Leader
 In addition to a cabinet position the lumber trust is to be rewarded for it's campaign contribution" with a heavy duty on all the materials that are used in building the houses of farm CTS and artisans. To an old-fashioned moralist this seems strange sort of compensation for the wasted forests, the denuded headwaters, the corrupted legislatures and the impudent purchase of public rights by bribery.-N. '. World.
 One MT. Marcus Hanna has been confding to the benighted public just what sort of a new tariff we are to have. Now will this Mir. Hanna confide to that public what district he represents in the house of representatives, or what state he represents in the United States senate? There is vague sort of inn pression that congress makes our tariff laws. Whonel's Hanna, anyhow?- D. Louisville Courier-Journal.
 The beauty of protective tariffs is being strikingly shown just now, when the price of American steel rails Is five to six dollars a ton below the English minimum and yet we have duty of $7.s0 ton to protect our ip- fant industry from the terrible for eigner. In a few weeks the foreigner will be complaining that we are taking his own markets from him, but congress will continue the duty for the benefit of the trust when 1t reorganizes to mulct the home consumers.-Kansas City Tunes.

STICK TO THEIR LIE.
Republicans Adhere to Their Doc
 urine of FnischoOd.


 The republican party, as represented by Senator Platt and his organs, ap- pears to be convinced of the correctness of the old proverb: "A lie we'll stuck to is as good as the truth" Ignoring the well-known fact that. as Senator Cam non says, the ballots counted for Me kinley were ostensibly or really for the promotion of an international agree ment to secure bimetallism. which the majors platform pledged him to secure If possible, the senator-elect in his maiden speech laid down these proposi- tions:
 1. The financial question can be in- definitely postponed.
 2. The Wilson law "shut down the mills and reduced the opportunities of labor and the earnings of investment"
 3. The deficit was caused by the Will son law, and the way to wipe it out and 10 increase the revenues is to pass g. higher tariff law.
 i. The tariff law must be "based in every schedule" upon the principle of protecting the American manufacturer against foreign competition.
 5. The people are clamoring for the new protective and revenue-raising tariff.
 Every one of these propositions is false, as all intelligent men are aware All persons who know anything about the situation of affairs know that (1) the financial question must be settled immediately, and that every months de- lay in settling it will make settlement more difficult and costly; that (2) what ''shut down the mills," etc, was the ap- preciating standard of values which has almost destroyed the home market; that (3) the revenues produced by the Wilson bill have been larger than the revenues under the Mckinley bill, the difference in favor of 1896 as compared with 1894 being $36, ,672 .910: that the de- felt was caused by the Mckinley bill, which was ayowedly constructed in order to destroy the surplus, and that, as a general rule, it is true that the higher the duty the smaller the rev. enue obtained from it; that (4) if the new law, consequently, is to be based upon the principle of protection it will not yield revenue, and if designed to raise revenue it cannot be based on the protection principle, and that (5) the business interests of the country, omit ting a few manufacturers and the un- lawful combinations in restraint of trade, would do almost anything to avert the continuance of uncertainty which the threat of tariff tinkering has produced.
 Doubtless Platt knows these things, too, for Platt is no fool. But the Cam ton clique is determined to pay no at- tention to them. and to go ahead dis charging it's debts to the trusts and manufacturers, and Platt thinks it wise just now to stand in" with that clique as far as he can in order to get the fed eral patronage in this state. So he has adopted the clique's tactics and is yell ing at the top of his voice for more rev. enue and protection in the hope that the noise will daze the people and pre- vent them from recollecting the facts and seeing how preposterous and dis honest the programme is.-N. Y. Jour nal.

GENEROSITY THAT PAYS.
The Deal Between Mckinley and
 AIger.


 Aiger.
 When the history of the Mckinley campaign is written one of the most interesting chapters will contain the story of how Alger obtained the offer of place in the cabinet.
 No one familiar with the career of Michigan's great political plunger was satisfied with the explanation that he was asked to take seat in the cabinet in order to reconcile Foraker to Han mas ambition to go to the senate. The story lacked the essential ingredient of an Alger deal; there was no poodle in the bargain.
 Far more convincing than the Hanna explanation is the information sent from Chicago that Alger's name occu- pies a conspicuous place in the list of the wealthy and generous friends of the president-elect who lifted him out of the financial bog into which he was plunged by the Foster failure. It is a fair presumption, also, that Alger's name is in the contribution book of the Hanna syndicate.
 Gratitude is good thing, but is not Maj. McKinley's gratitude for Gen. Al gers generosity too much of good thing? A glance at the lumber schedule of the Dingley tariff bill shows that the lumber interests, in which the Alger fortune was made, are favored with rich plums. Gratitude slops over when the generous contributor is rewarded with both political honors and the gift of a great deal more money than he paid out. Generosity pays usurious interest when the bread cast on the political waters returns in the form of pie and cake.
 Maj. Mckinley is said to have all the men who dropped something into his contribution box slated for good things. His gratitude is creditable, but we must protest against his manner of showing it. If he pays all of them as he proposes to pay Gen. Alger, the American people will be bankrupt in honor and pocket. St. Louis Republic.
The Forrest City times., 1897-03-05

We look forward to time, and that not many years in the future, when the people, restored to political sanity by stern necessity, will place the real democratic party in power, and thus, under the operations of tariff which will yield sufficient revenue to pay the expenses of the government, and an eX- banding volume of currency, the coun- try will be restored to prosperity. and the republic to its former glory ard Icwer.-Atlanta Constitution.
 Good times have not yet come hack. The republican party is doing it's best to defer their coming by enter ing upon general revision of the tariff, the most upsetting and business destroying occupation in which it could have engaged. The fall elections will give the people an opportunity to pass judgment upon this policy.-N. Y. Times
