greatest danger to the Demo-

In other words the Republic rea-
Lies that apart from the one
question of the tariff the two
parties do not differ to any great
extent in their disposition to
deal with the leading issues of the
day. such as State and Federal
regulations of railroads, trust
combinations, the enforcement
of pure food laws and similar
questions.
The more carefully Democrats
will study the situation the
more clearly will they see that
the great difference between the
parties which has survived the
political changes of the last four
or five years is that which re-
lates to tariff taxation. 1t is
true that in many respects the
tariff, the trusts and the rail-
roads are bound together as
issues. but the fact can not be
blinked that on the tariff gues-
ton alone is the difference be-
tween the attitude of the Dem
ocratic party and that of the Re-
publican party. marked and
clear. and it is this difference
that the Democracy should make
the paramount issue of it's cam

connection the Buffalo Courier
says: 9

campaign as to precipitate a
wrangle over the question as to
which party is entitled to the
most credit for regulating the
railroads and the trusts thus
losing sight of the more impor-

the tariff to trusts. Therefore,
when the Denver convention
