NO POLITICS IN THE TARIFF.

1t il not too much TO expect that the
tariff question has fore O. passed MS n con-
spicuous issue in national politics
While the Mugwumps are ca i ng for
"non- -partlsan' tariff commission the
tariff has become itself non-partisap, or
mt least the entering wedge to that end
is clearly indicated by recent events
With a platform calling for tariff for
revenue only, the last Democratic admin
istration with full power failed to provide
anything of the sort.
It passed the Wilson bill which was so
far from being tariff for revenue that 1t
created new governments debt.
It was not free trade tariff In the sense
that it enlarged tho free list materially.
The trainers and promoters of that
iniouitous measure simply aiInod blow
at New England manufacturers and Ohio
wool growers and produced protective
tariff wherever such seemed for tho
benefit Of sections that were normally
Democrats: OF course, the result demon
strated that no part of the country could
secure benefits of trade by iniuring other
parts. The Wilson hill retained features
of the protection principle but twisted
.hom grotesquoly. Ii contained what are
supposed to be revenue only features
hut these, IN common with the whole
measure wero handled with so littlo skill
that a deficiency only resulted.
The consideration OF the new tariff bill
has shown broak in the solid south
and. all over tho country, the measure
meets with only small opposition except
ON the limited, " loyal, bano Of Mug
wumps who will follctate themselves
upon being tho only good and true and
the only possessors of intelligence in a
land where all the people rule and have n
right 10 thoir Individual opinions. In be-
half of their Sea Island cotton and their
Louisiana sugar the old FREQ trade South
swings into line for a protective tariff.
Inc growth of tho South In manufac-
ture too. will prove n still stronger in
fluenoe co bring that section into the
grand army OF protectionists independent
of political party names. There will
always be differences of opinion on thrift
schedules. The interests Of the different
sections Of this road country will de-
mand nsidcration In the making of
any tariff measure. But II is Co 10 believed
that never again will national camTa gn
re contested with the principle of protec'
ton opposed by tho free trade cry. Not
In this generation. at all events.
