The disappointment CT leading Re
publican papers Of the nation over the
Mckinley administration must be
humiliating to the rank and file of the
"grand old party" and not only to any
one faction or element. At first the
gold standard men showed their teeth
at the appointment of a silver COM
mission. but they were somewhat ap-
peased by the assurance that 1t was
only play which could result in
nothing the expenditure OF
100000 by the commissioners. Next
that loyal phalanX of American citi.
zens whose hearts beat for the freedom
OF their friends in Cuba were sorely
disappointed They had expected
great things fron a Republican presl-
dent, and an old soldier'at that, who
was elected on a platform favoring
the independence Of Cuba. but now
only digust and disappointment stare
them in the face on this long cherished
cause Of justice. But the slckest lot
of all IS tnat large element which has
for so many years hung to the tariff
delusion. With Mckinley at the
helm theyaexpected everything from
this great panacea for all political
ills. They looked upon the old Nc
Kinley bill as a 'nascotte that had
worked magic, but they forgot that
49, l,f.t,rto ,,,oocura nvlu bnra hic
name, and had been framed by states.
men. Now that the Mckinley ad-
ministratiGn had the bill to make up
our presidents genius IN that line
has been found sadly lacking. The
Dinglcy bill proves failure, and thus
the long cherished hope and idol of
the party is shattered.
Not year OF McKinley's admins
tration has passed and the leading
newspapers that supported him in the
campaign ADMIT that they are dis
appointed. The following from
Harper's Weekly, the great Illustrated
paper of the country, which advocated
McKinleyism long and loud, is a fair
sample Of these opinions:
"Mr. Dingley's tariff law is so patent
a failure as revenue measure that
its best friends are expressing their
disappointment with II. Tariff legis-
lation was set above currency reform
by the administration and by con
gress because 1t was said to be neces
sary to increase the revenue. 1t was
known that this was mere pretence,
and that the Dlngley measure would
increase the deficit and not the re-
celpts OF the treasury. It's author and
his party insisted on their higher
duties. The result Is as was forseen.
On November 30, the en1 OF the first
fiye months Of the fiscal year, the
deficit Of the treasury was $40, ,000, 900,
Indicating roughly a total deficit for
the year of$ll0,0O ,0O0"
