DINGLEY'S QUICK REPLY
NETTLED AT CLEVELAND'S RE-
MARKS ON REPUBLICAN VICTORY.
Party Pledged to Raise Revenue Be-
fore 1t Takes Up the Mon
etary Question.

NEW YORK, April 25.-In an interview
to-day, Congressman Dingley. chairman of
the'committee on ways and means, in reply
to ex-President Clevelands criticism at the
Reform Club dinner. last night, that the
Republican party won the late election on
its declaration in favor of sound money
and not on the tariff issue, said:
The fact is that the Republican party
won on both issues, and the tariff issue in
those parts of the country which practi-
cally decided the contest had more TO do
with the victory than any other issue
Nothing could be clearer than that the
pledges of the party made it's first duty to
provide sufficient revenue to carry on the
government without borrowing in time of
peace and in the adjustment of duties on
imports to that end TO encourage industries
of the United States, stricken by unfair
competition.
IF the Republican party should fail at
the beginning of its lease of power to do
these things it could be justly held to have
proved faithless to its pledges.
LAS to the responsibility which rests on
the party 10 preserve a sound currency rest
assured that there will be no failure; in
deed, the triumph of the party was an as
surance which has been accepted by the
commercial world that a sound currency
There is undoubtedly need at the earliest
possible date of some legislation TO improve
our currency system, but one knows
better than the gentlemen who are criti-
cisng the Republican party that if such
legislation should be taken up to-day, in the
present condition of the Senate 10 favor
able results could be obtained and the agi-
tation which would arise from a long and
fruitless debate in the Senate would exert
an injurious influence on the business of the
country and would endanger the success
of legislation TO provide revenue to carry on
the government"
