turned the tide of national adversely
and hard times, and rescued the coun-
try from dire distress. The Democratic
party predicted that the tariff of 1897
wcuid be dismal failure; that under
its provisions this country could not
increase its export trade and foreign
commerce. Both predictions have
proved failure
Fooled in their attempts to discredit
the tariff and to make free silver and
"militarism" vital issues, the Demo
cratic party undertakes to argue that
trusts are an outgrowth of the tariff,
and that therefore the protective tariff
on all trust-made goods must be placed
ON the free list. Such a policy would
be dangerous, for 1t would destroy all
domestic independent concerns and
place the products more firmly than
ever in the control of trusts. The pol
ley under which the country has pros
pered-the bridge over which the PEG
pie have traversed TO success-must not
be destroyed IL the tariff is meddled
with present prosperity will disappear.
