AGiI\ST TtRIFF REVISION.
senator Hale Says II Would he Folly TO
Disturb Present conditions.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 21.-Senator Hale Of
Maine, one Of the mos, influential men
on the Republican side Of he Senate cham
Der. SAYS
Neither his winter, nor the next nor The
winter thereafter. unless Congress loses
H. head, will any revision Of the tarif Toe
made. The result, 81 the Dinglev 1ariH
act have been 80 generally happy that ii is
difficult to understand the cry which is
set up in certain quarters, not by The people
generally, in favor u revision.
he Dingley act has given the people
Of the United States more revenue, more
business. more trade and more prosperit v
than any bill ever enacted. The people
understand this, and the late elections show
that. with certain except ions entire con-
tent exists under present Condit ions. II
would be the height Of folly now 10 try
to disturb these conditions
The free traders, including almost all
the Democrat leaders and the uneasy,
weak -kneed Republicans who are bowling
for revision and reciprocity, would do
well 10 take MOI ice % what will happen
provided they get their way. Il is abso-
lutev safe to say that no tariff revision
can take place excep, al the end of a long
\ =
which in itself will disturb nearly all and
destroy some Of our industries.
The out come will be il any new bin is
passed. a practically Democratic tariff
The combination on import ant schedules
in the tarift between the uneasy Republi-
cans and the entire Democratic force in
Congress will insure not Republican
measure. but Democratic one. Nor can
any partia or limited revision be made
without entering into the construction Of
an entire bill, and, in fact, there can never
I've any change in certain articles without
entering upon the whole subject % tariff
eNision.
Besides this, II il were possible, no con-
cessions on single articles in the tariff would
for a moment stop the free-'rade and Dem
ocratic agitation for entire revision. An
eminent Democratic leader has said thai
there will be no rest until the infamous
policy Of protection is broken down and de-
-'royed.
Il am sure that what I say represents
the general sentiment Of the Republican
party Throughout the country. II is the
fashion of certain newspapers and few
prominent Republicans TO say that revision
is needed, and that wa will enter upon il in
the next Congress. hut wherever tho issue
has been made. whether in New England
or elsewhere. this proposition has gone Ia
the wall. II was tried in Massachusetts
with failure as the result.
I'm the main, a cry for revision means a
new tariff, built on anti-Republican lines
Generally speaking, IL you scratch a re-
visor YOU find underneath a free trader
Unless the Republican party has los,
heart and faith in i's fundamental policies.
there will be no meddlinR with and no
emasculat ion of the present tariff whether
under the guise Of reciprocity or reform
In the long future. II general revision il
demanded, the Republican party will not
be- afraid to undertake It,"

Those who have been urging the

nation should not relax their ef-
,orrs If the lawyers Of the country
nil only put their heads together,
and organize in a practical systematic
r-apnar the whole fabric of discrimi
ngtiDg laws could be examined,
tanned against, campaigned against,
and finally placed upon trial for
ia life, with the probability
of final destruction. Correspondence
should be opened between the lead
er,i of the profession, and a concerted
movement inaugurated. A bar asso-
cfation is feasible, and could be made
an instrument for great usefulness in
securing our rights as citizens.
The following is an excerpt from a
letter dated May "a, 1902, written to
Reuben 5. Smith, Esq, leading bar
rister OF this city, by Attorney l. L.
Purcell Of Pensacola, Fla, who so
recently argued a case here before the
United States Supreme Court, inVoly-
ing the Interpretation of the Fifteenth
Amendment of the Constitution

thanks for the kindness shown me
while in your city. However, such
are the traits of us Southern fellows.

In the Alabama case. hope he may
be successful against that Alabama
constitution. 1t is quite encouraging
10 zee that our people are cOmmene-
ing to employ Negro lawyers in such
cases. There are many rights and
privileges denied the Negro in the
South. and | may say, to some extent
in the North, in which, if properly
contested in the courts OF our country,
would be granted. We have depended
too much on indignation meetings,
and too little on ourselves and our
professional men. If the money spent
in these meetings was spent In the
courts and in intelligent agitation,
demanding redress for the wrongs
complained of, | believe a great deal
more would be accomplished"
