The republican party came into its
existence sentimentalist. 1t was go
ing to free the slave. The war made
it hero and patriot. After the war,
freedom was still its motto. Having
freed the slave, it was going to free the
trade. The Grant administrations and
the campaign of 1872 diverted its pur-
pose. In 1876 the democrats demanded
"a tariff for revenue only" Protec-
tionism, giving, and in turn receiving,
allied itself with the party in power.
The first Of two intervening democratic
administrations proved abortiye. The
second proved unequal. That settled
the hash of free trade.
Proteetionism, which has never pre-
tended to be anything but a provisional
expedient for the development OF our
infant industries became an article
Of republican faith, tenet of the re.
publican gospel. The protectionists
grew to be the ruling force in the re-
publican party. Every tariff dicker
ran up the duties. The more farseeing
republican leaders, first Mr.. Blaine and
then Mr.. Mckinley, tried to find some
modification in the reciprocity treaties.
But protectionism, favoriteism, class
distinction, the attorneys of monopoly
in Congress, proved stronger than they,
and so, the reciprocity treaties were put
to bed and to sleep in their little sena-
torial pigeon holes, with none but gray
wolves to watch their slumbers and to
look to it that they waken not again.
Thus stands the account today. This
is the situation with which Mr.. Roose-
yelt has to deal. Protectionism was
strong enough, as led by Mr.. Randall,
for 10 years to play havoc in the dem
ocratic party. Is Mr.. Roosevelt, even
on moderate program, strong enough
to face it in the republican party? New
forces Of organized capital, caring moth
ing about the tariff, are now arrayed
with it to down the administration on
general principles. viii the Bryan
democrats Of the West stand by Mr..
Roosevelt in case he makes the fight /?
The likelihood is that the southern
democrats viii stand by him. But,
mammon is all powerful, and mammon
has already taken a certain stand in
the South. There is a strong party
there ready in effect to say, "Let not
the robbery stop until we, too, have
