A REPUBLICAN OPINION :


Samuel w Mccall, member NJ con.
gress from the Eighth Massachusetts
district. has contributed an article TO
the Atlantic Monthly for October In
which he lays bare some OF the falla.
cies OF Republicanism and criticizes
his party severely for its policy. On
the subject OF protection he says:
Between radical revision and no
revision al ell the former is preferable.
A radical revision would involve bust.
ness disturbance. No revision al all
would continue some outgrown sched.
ules and ratify and make seated many
important duties which answer no just
purpose OF revenue or protection. and
which. chiefly in consequence OF de-
velopments since their adoption. as
directly impose the payment Of trib-
ute as II that were the declared pur-
pose OF the law A deliberate and
sanctioned governmental favoritism
soon becomes permanent The plum
der and conhscations Of today become
the vested interests Of tomorrow"
Nor is he less tender in respect to
the boastful policy of the administra.
ton in its effort to make the United
StHios ~ world power" On this sub
s. ho says:
Alter a half-dczen years OF boastful
exaggeration and 'world-power' fus-
tian. which have brought us to the
point OF bullying and beating our little
brothers among the nations. the time
has come for-ihe republic to resume
ita serenity and to stand erect again
In the majestic spirit OF the old Amer.
