Tariff Revision.

The Democratic press of the West
and some of the quasi Republican
papers are clamoring for a revision
of the tariff. Eastern papers of
both parties are not so persistent
in demanding a change. The East
is well satisfied with the schedules
as they exist. The reason for this
divided sentiment is apparent. The
tariff, the protective feature, is To-
cal question. The East is largely
engaged in manufacturing industries
while the West is agricultural.
Manufacturing is a varied and
complicated industry. This indus
try has been heavily protected to
the more general advantage of the
locality where operated, but that a
protective tariff has been beneficial
to the country as whole is too ap-
parent to need argument in its DEM
onstration. Protection to home in
dustries is a Republican doctrine,
policy that has added billions OF
wealth to the country. Has it in
creased the wealth of the already
rich 10 the detriment of the rest of
the people? That is a question
for investigation and adjustment.
But the Republicans must stand to-
gether. Division would aid the OPP
position.
But the Republican party is not
ayerse to a revision of the tariff.
The schedules will be readjusted
when it is apparent that changes
are required for the general good.
In confirmation of this contention
reference is made to the action of
the National Republican Clubs in
their convention, recently held in
Philadelphia. One of the resolu-
tions of the National League of Re-
publican Clubs at this convention
was as follows:
1--WE endorse the sentiment of
William Mckinley that the principle
Of a protective tariff is sacred, but
that schedules should be changed
when conditions of industry, COM
merce' and finance demand, and not
till then"
