This sort Of thing is INDUCED In too
much by all parties. but we do not often
witness so unwarranted proceeding
as this by Senator Jones. The silver
question was not before the senate; only
the tariff BIN was being discussed, and
yet, under the pretense Of delivering a
speech on he tarlff, this Bryan leader
deliberately Incorporates in the report Of
the debate the above outfit of Bryan
campaign literature, embracing sub
feet entirely separate from the one I'M

of the whole country may be made bear

is time to call a half on the custom that
permits the publication in the Record
of spieches that were never delivered

Two ISlnda ofob.truollon.

"The truth is. the Republicans OBJ
s,ructed the Wilson bill because they
knew II would bring relief to the coun-
try." says the Register Indeed, well,
what was the relief It brought to the
country? A deficiency of many millions
of dollars in the revenues, making 1t
necessary to borrow sl6OOOO,OOO. and in
creasins the national debt enormously;
three years of almost unprecedented
business depression; the paralysis OF
MANY manufacturing industries; COM
plete prostration OF the wool growing
industry, reduction OF wages. and hun
dred other things.
Compare the industrial statistics of the
past year of the operation Of the Wilson
tarff. or the year before that with the
statistics of 1899. when the Republican
tariff had been in full force and effect
for two years Every prediction made
by the Republicans concerning what the
effect of the Wilson bill would be has
been verified. 1t is still in effect and the
Register Is doing more bowling about
hard times than any paper we know Of.
Grover Cleveland, who was the head OF
the Democratic administration that gave
us the four years of distress. can con-
template the past with some satisfaction
at the thought that he washed his hands
of responsibility for the chief factor that
produced 1t, when he refused to approve
the Wilson bill. It is pity that the Re-
publican Obstruction" was not success
full. Had 1t been we would not be In the
condition we are to-day experiencing.
Our nelghbor goes on to contrast the
aforesaid Republican Obstruction" with
the action of the Democrats In the pres.
ent senate 1t says they offered no OBJ
struction, because they knew that the
sooned the bill would become n Inv the

chances Of success at tho next cleo

void of patriotism. If they honestly
believed that the tariff bill was a
measure that would prove disastrous
TO the welfare of the country. 1t was
their duty. as patriots and Ms representa-
tives OF a great constituency not to aid
in It's passage for the sake of gaining a
partisan advantage three years hence,
but to use every means in their power to
defeat It.
The Registers suggestion that the
Democratic members deliberately con-
splred to let the bill 80 through unob-
structed, believing that It would bring
such disaster as would cause reversal
of.public sentiment in 1900, Is an admIs-
sion that they were anxious TINT the
country should suffer in order that their
political fortunes might be benefited.
There was an impression that the Dem
ocratio senators took the course they did
in obedience to the will Of the majority
of the people expressed at the polls in ia
for of a new tariff on protective lines
The Register. however, speaking as II
Democratic organ, attributes to them a
baser motive than TINT, motive I'M
worthy OF American citizens and Amer
lean senators.
