The seizure revealed an interesting traf-

very common thing for them to import
from Canada watches which have been
made in this country and shipped across

Pay Double Tax.
The protective tariff law enables the

INDIANAPOLIS. IND, October IT,
Former Senator David B. Hill, OF New
York, delivered an address before a
Democratic mass-meeting in Tomlinson
Hall tonight. The hall was crowded to
Its capacity, many being turned away
from the doors. John II. Dye, general
counsel for the Big Four Railroad. pre-
sided at Tho meeting. When Mr.. Hill
stepped to tho front OF the platform, he
was greeted by cheering, which con-
tinued for several minutes. Mr.. Hill,
among other things, discussed the ques-
ton Of a reasonable revision OF the
present tariff rates. He contended that
the stand pat" policy Of the Republicans
at the present time was in every way
injurious to the best interests OF the
country.
Make Filipinos Free.
He also discusses the Philippine ques-
tion alleging that the retention OF the
Philippine Islands had already cost the
government over $6OOo00.0oO since their
annexation. Said he: THE Democratic
party advocates giving the Filipino peo-
plc their Independence rs speedily as pos
sible and let them work out their own
salvation In their own way. They are
not adapted for our civilization and we
have no use for subjects who are not
or cannot become tit for citizenship. Our
Republican friends arc attempting to
bunco the American people Their party
has no consistent policy They want to
keep the Islands in the interests of spec
sulators, but they do not dare avow their
purpose. They refuse to promise any
thing definite or certain, Nj
Scores the President.
Mr.. Hill advocated the election Of sens
ators by direct vote Of the neDpe at
length, criticised the present adlninis-
{tration OF the Department OF Commerce
and Labor as not beneficial to labor and
discussed the Panama question,
In conclusion Mr. Hill said;sA" am
opposed to the reelection of n President
who has either traduced or ridiculed
nearly every one Of his predecessors IN
office, and who seems to imagine that
this country has over mounted to any
thing until tho little skirmlsh with
Spain occurred, and he suddenly blos-
somcd out into military hero as n

country was great and prosperous be-
fore the President was born II had es-
tahIshed fame and glory By q hundred
