When the tariff bill was about to BE-
framed the republican leaders stated
that they desired to be moderate and tG
avoid anything like excessive rates
Mr.. Aldrich, when Introducing the
amended measure into the senate
claimed that his rates were generally
lower than those Of the house bill. The
linen schedule, however, is a notable
one OF many exceptions. In it the sen.
ate rates are higher than those of the
house and much higher than anything
ever before known.
Under the Mckinley bill of 1890 lin.
ems were assessed IS per cent, with a
few exceptions. as high as 50 per cent
ad valorem. Under the rates proposed
by the senate large proportion of the
goods in everyday use will be assessed
from 65 to IS per cent. and in some
instances over 100 per cent. The fol
lowing table shows some of the changes
in the cost of medium and low grade

Tillmans proposition for investigation Of
charges of control of the tariff schedule

Democratic and Populist Senators saying
frankly that they think the proposed in

Democratic leaders who have borne
the heat and burden of the day during
many years and many campaigns must ex-
perience a strange sensation on finding
themselves read out of the party by new
corners in that organization. William
Jennings Bryan, who voted for the Popu-
list candidate for President in 1892, and
who was nominated on an anarchstic
platform in 1896, calmly announced
through his representatives in the various
States that only men who supported him
and his platform last year can be admitted
to participation in Democratic conventions
or primaries in any State in the campaign
of 1897. The following extract from the
call for the Ohio Democratic convention
is sample of the way Mr.. Bryan and
those who do his bidding lay down the
law. The call announces that ''the fol
lowing persons and none other are eligi-
BILE to participate in the State convention.
First, ali persons who voted for William
j. Bryan for President at the November
election of 1896; second, all other persons

the mines of the United States turning out
greater quantities of gold than last year,
but recent reports from the wonderful
mines in Africa, from those of South and

President McKinley's ambition to at
tach his signature to the new tariff bill by
the Fourth of July seems likely to be real
lied. The progress made in the Senate
in the consideration of this bill is phe-
nomenal, and is due to the fact that the
protective sentiment in all the parties in
that body is gaining strength every year
and that the people are bringing strong
pressure to bear in behalf of the early en-
actment of a protective-tariff measure.
