on this point, ii seems to me that some

of this expense. which amounted TO a

The amount then determined upon was

FREE TRADERS AT WORK.
Lobby ing To Reduce DinEIcy Tnrin
Rates i'm the Senate


Although the democratic party tried
to ignore the tariff question in the
presidential campaign OF 1896, the old
Free Trade Tariff Reform" club of
New York has been aroused into I'M
usual activity, considering this is An OH
year in politics with no political cam
paign i'm sight
Free Traders John De Witt Warner
and Egrcgiously Erroneous Anderson
used 10 bc the moving spirits i'm the
dissemination Of free trade fabrications
but they seem TO have taken a back
seat, because one Calvin Tomkins. a
dealer in supplies. now appcnds his
signature to the Reform club" circu-
lars.
Among the other supplies" that Cal
vim Tomkins deals i'm are stereotvped
plates. and rcady-print democratic free
trade literature. This is sent out free
of cost, except for express charges, to
country newspapers. 1t is not stated
whether a free advertisement of the
general supply business of Dealer Cal
vim Tomkins must be inserted with
the tariff reform" stuff. But that is
side show to the main issue. which
is an attacl, upon the Dingley bill.
In circular letter, the Calviuistic
doctrine is set forth that the Ding
ley bill is Especially designed to help
trusts and monopolies." Dealer Tom
lns has evidently not read the bill.
The whole circular is rcplete with mis-
representations just as tariff reform"
literature always has been. But the
point TO which we particularly desire
to draw attention is the renewed ac-
tNity of the free trade party and their
determined efforts to make strong
fight 10 defeat the policy of protec-
ton i'm congress. although they re-
fused TO recognize its Importance i'm
