MUST FACE THE ISSUE.
EI;msiness of the Republican He. ciprocity Dodge Is Becom-
 ing Apparent.

There is little reason to doubt that the protected interests of this country will favor such action by congress on the reciprocity question as shall seem tu contain promise of tariff reduction without offering a genuine menace 10 the great monopolies, says the St. Louis Republic
 The trick would be well worth turn ing if the American people could be kept in ignorance of the bunko nature of such action. Following congress sional legislation as thus directed by the trusts the republican party would doubtless proclaim to the voters of this country that the republicans themselves were removing the tariff burden from the shoulders of taXpay- CTS.
 In this manner, heshrewG represent atives of monopoly interests believe, the issue of tariff revision can be kept out of the next national campaign. There is no longer possibility of entirely ignoring this issue and re- fusing point blank to abandon the principle of the high protective tariff. The people are too fully aroused to the iniquties of the resent tariff to be longer fooled by the argument that protection benefits the consumer. They know that protected interests which sell their manufactured product cheaper in Europe than at home constitute heavy burden upon the home consumer and are unfairly enriched at his expense. The only ex- pedienr now left to avert tariff re- vision is found in the crafty movement for reciprocity treaties with certain foreign nations.
 Luckily, however, there is little doubt that the American. people already see through the fimsy game being attempted by the republican party. The congressional debates on the question of reciprocity and tariff revision promise to be of peculiar sig nifieance. One of the certainties of the situation is that they will make the is- sue of the tariff revision the most vital issue of the presidential campaign of 1904.
