THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY SUS-
PECTEr.

them al worse Now, along come,

| The reciprocity policy Is SO popular
with the people. says the Tribune N
recent editorial, "that the Demo
Gratis will steal it ii the Republicans
DO not look out Judge Parker quotes
approvingly in his letter Of acceptance
what Mckinley said of thai policy
The Democratic national platform ia
vors liberal trade arrangements es
pecially with Canada, The Republi
cans cannot safely let The Democrats
get ahead OF them there sane,
strong sentiment exists in the United
States Ia favor Of reciprocity
with Canada, the third largest
buyer oi American products
and the next to the largest
anon the protective countries
1t Is expedient that the voters
in every congressional district should
be told that the Republican party is
for fair reciprocity with the world in
general and Canada in particular, and
that it will revise the tariff in the next
congress with this subject in view"
The Tribune need not accuse thu
Democratic party Of intending to
steal" the reciprocity policy The
Democrats have already made the
theft, ii that is the proper term 10
use. The greatest champions OF the
reciprocity policy have been Blaine
and Mckinley, Republicans. These
two men both tried to induce the Re
publican party TO take up the policy
Of reciprocity, but without success.
President Mckinley in his lifetime
sough to give effect TO this policy ami
took the first steps in that direction.
But his successor in the presidents
chair and the Republican masters OF
the senate have refused to allow the
policy of Mckinley to be carried out
Neither President Roosevelt nor the
Republican party has any reciprocity
policy TO steal. What the Chicago
Tribune wants them to do Is 10 take
up now the reciprocity policy which
Judge Parker and the platform Of the
Democratic national convention have
already adopted, not with any view 10
getting sharp advantage over an op.
ponent. but because they believe the
public welfare would be advanced by
such policy.
These expressions of the Chicago
Tribune are significant as indicating
the strength In the central west of the
policies Of tariff revision and reciproc.
ny championed by Judge Parker.
They do much to confirm the claim Of
the correspondent of the Brooklyn
Eagle that states of the central west
like Indiana Illinois. Michigan and
Wisconsin are ripe for Democratic
victory such as followed the campaign
for tariff reform In 1892 when Grover
Cleveland was elected president.
