There is an erroneous impression
abrJad that the new secretary OF the
treasury. Lyman ]. Gage. is either a
Democrat or a free trade Mugwump.
Neither of these views is correct He
is a Republican voter. That is TO say.
he Is a believer in the cardinal prin-
ciplss of the Republican party. He IS
not q Democrat, but a democrat -
that is, taking the word in its original
meaning Of one in favor of government
by the people, which is the signifca-
ton Df the word. Here are his own
words as to his political belief: II

heve in government of the people. by
the people and for the people. do

ment AS TO parties. have never vot-
ed any other than the Republican tick
ct, except once. and that was in 1884,
when / voted for Grover Cleveland. I
voted for Harrison IN 1892. and, OF
course, for Mckinley in 1896. The plat
form o. ti-e last Republican national
convention embodies my present :leas
as applied to the political issues then
and now before the country. Under
the constitution. revenue can not be
raised by direct taxation. We are oblig-
ed, therefore, to resort to indirect taxa

than the imposition Of duties on foreign
imports. This taxation should be so or
dered, however. as not to foster mo-
nOpolies, breed trusts, or favor the few
at the expense Of the many. I do not
know how / can express my ideas more
clearly than by saying that / believe
in the raising Of revenue by customs
duties, 50 levied as to promote the gen
eral welfare by equalizing the difference
between American and foreign labor.

the year ending September 50. 1893. were
about $500 900, increased for the cor

II Is claimed that the phraseology "

ands Of newspapers and magazines all

objects Of the bill was To prevent the
use OF "second-class" mail bags for
the transmission of books or reprints ot
books purporting to be issued AS pre-
miums or supplements or parts " reg
ular newspapers or periodicals"
Under a strict construction OF the
hill, should Il beSnme law, none cf the

Such a requirement would subject the

TO needless expense and annoyance.
There is no popular demand Tor such
radical abridgements of the rights that

the senate in such way as to leave
no excuse for imposing unnecessary
hardships upon newspaper publishers.
