The Development was logical and typical.
1t is certain that the facts and figures correctly
indicating the cost to the country of a Congress
which has SO little regard for the time-honOred Amer
lean principle Of economy /. the administration of
government will be duly kept before the public eye
in next years campaign. Beyond doubt, also, the
voters Of this country, remembering the failure OF the
Fifty-seventh Congress definitely to settle such i'm
portant matters as the Cuban reciprocity treaty. the
Panama Canal treaty and the enactment of compe-
tent antitrust laws, will be inclined TO punish the
party responsible for such a record of combined in
efficiency and extravaganza. A Congress which
spends nearly two billion dollars and acccmplIshes 50
little of benefit TO the country is of itself enough TO
defeat the majority party In the next elections.
The legitimate appeal OF Democrats on this issue
is based on a consistent record. The Democratic
party In power has always stood for economical ad-
milistraron. The scandals of extravaganza and cor
ruption have come under Republican regimes. The
spirit in which this Government was founded con-
demned a lavish use Of the public moneys. Repub-
lican simplicity forbade the development OF 4 spend
thrift Government. The Democratic party has re-
manned steGdfast and true to this spirit. The record
of the Fifty seventh Congress proves that the Repub-
lican party has abandoned it utterly and absolutely.

The Fight for Tariff Review.

Detroit Free Press.
The revisionists insist that al but mercenary and IN
american interests would be enhanced by the carrying out
Of their policy. Their chief difference with the other
wing Of the party Is as to the effect that the proposed
tariff alterations would have upon trusts. Secretary Root
craftly conterded that a tariff which wiped out the trusts
would wipe out American manufactures. The President,
speaking broadly, says in substance that certain trusts
that dominate in their respective fields are not affected by
the tariff, and that a revision working injury to the trusts
touched by # would destroy their independent competitors
The so-called Western idea IS not to destroy the trusts.
