Talks on Tariff,

Governor A. b. Cummins. of Iowa, in
a speech on Reciprocity" at Pitts
burg, on Monday of this week, sam,
among other things:
Il am for tariff revision and for
tariff reduction as Il measure of justice
to buyers of protected commodities.
Ii seems TO me We have gone mad III
our zeal for the seller and have abau-
dOned the buyer to the tender merciet
of monopoly, combination and greed"
This acknowledgement that the prJ-
tective tariff policy of the republican
party. which has been in operation
through all their different adminiStra-
tons. as far back as the memory Of
man runneth, and which have always
been heralded with the patriotic cam
paign cry of protection coming Is
il does now, from the lips of one who
stands so high in the COunsels of the
party. clearly demonstrates To the Am
erican people of today that the policy
of protection. after all its years of cX-
perience, has been beneficial only to
the favored few. and its create
achievement has been the developing
of those tender infant industries, in
to full grown wealth-gTasping Octopi.
Some of our own Infant industries
have received so much of this prote--
ton that their representatives are de
voting the retiring years of their lives
in the endeavor 10 rid themselves OF
the accommodations wrought thereby,
which despite all the conditions ant
indications existing in other branches
of trade, still continues to accumG-
late.

protective tariff and the wisdom of tn"
policy of a tariff for revenue only, i

other words, the securities issued in
the first five months of this year total
almost as much as the entire issue of

year have been by railroad companies,

comprising less than 90 per cent of the
