MIR. Bryan on the Tariff

1t Is significant that the tariff is tho
first question selected by Mr.. Bryan
for special treatment in an address 10
the people. The reason which he as
signs for this is that 1T is the most
lasting of our economic questions and
the one upon which the leading par
ties have most frequently opposed
each other
IL has been charged that Mr. Bryan
was cold on the subject of the tariff.
but his address at Des Moines, as well
as the declarations of the platform.
witch he doubtless inspired, are far
! from supporting this idea. The address
shows that he is fully awake 10 the
need OF revising the tariff, and that
by revision he means a reduction.
Mr.. Bryan reminds us that much OF
the clap-trap OF the Republicans with
reference to the tariff has been aban.
doned. There is no longer any talk
about infant industries that must be
cared for till they are able 10 stand
on heir feet. There is no longer the
claim that the foreigner pays the tax,
and no talk as TO the home market.
No doubt these things will be urged liz
certain cases where il is supposed that
they may still have an effect, out the
party no longer puts them into its
platform or otherwise makes a gen.
eral feature of them. The plan now is
to seem TO yield to the popular de-
mand for a reduction of the tariff, but
without really yielding.
The objection that the people can.
not ntrust the completion OF this work
OF revising the tariff to the Republican
party is based upon the most solid
grounds. Pressure is brought 10 hear
on the favored industries, at every
presidential election, and to a svbordi-
nate degree every two years at the
elections to compel
