A further reason why the Democrats
are disposed to denounee the Republi
can party for the passage of the Dingley
tariff is that the Dingley tariff has
not afforded an opportunity for the Pres
ident to issue bonds bearing per cent.
interest, whereby foreign governments
mighl be called upon to float national
loan for the United States. It is pre-
sumed that one of the most precious leg
acies of Cleveland's administration and
the history of the operation of the Will
son tariff law is that it cost the American
people de aggregating nearly $4OO.
600. 000 in times of profoundest peace to
run the affairs of the national govern
merit; while the Republican party has
been able to make a showing of small
sarp ns, and, at the same time, carry on
one OF the most gigantic wars ever in.

issue OF 5000, 100000 v nich, a. present,

Treasury Of th- United States. Will
some wis" Democrat who wishes to let
the people know what the truth really
is, interpret for ns this Clause 2 of the
State platform Of the Democratic party
of Texas?

to place the Democracy OF Texas on

The Democratic party is on record in
