President Mckinley died happily in the
conviction that under his administration
the last vestge OF sectionalisn had dis

which her fertile soil. her forests. her
mines. her splendid seacOast harbors,
and her internal waterways so abun-

pie with genuine consideration; he can
respect their traditions. even though he
may not adopt them and he can dis
passionately and wisely influence beth

without raising the specter OF social

toward preventing harmonious relation

President Taft. In all his Uterances. has
carefully avoided reference TO this dis

that all good Democrats will draw a line

the saying that good name is rather to

Thus another gap looms up between
the Democratic leader and g considerable

Mr. BRYAN on the Democracy

William J. Bryans satisfaction with
the condition and prospects Of the Demo-
cratic party is serene and invincible Re
viewing the last Presidential campaign
in a speech 10 the Texas legislature on
April s, Mr.. Bryan said that the party
had. made a remarkable showing. when
the forces arrayed against II were taken
trto consideration. His surprise was not
that the party did not receive more
votes. but that it received as many
votes as It did. So near victory was he
that a change Of 5000 votes in the doubt
1ul States would have altered the result
OF the national election. 1--WE made a
brave fight" concluded Mr. Bryan. "and
we have more than 100000 voters who
can neither be bought nor intimidated,
and, however discouraged they may feel, I
want TO say that I would infinitely rather
go down 10 defeat fighting upon the plat
form on which I ran than to hold the Of
fec Of President Of the United States
and owe my election to the influences
that elected MY opponent"
Yet It was a defeat. as Mr.. Bryan ad-
mits; still, the consolatory thing about
the Democratic defeat was that the
party made progress by forcing the oppo-
sition TO take up Democratic projects and
Democratic principles and put them into
effect. II might have been pleasant to
divide up the loayes and fishes. but MI
Bryan thinks It better to have seen prin-
ciples advance and the Republican party
compelled TO make terms with the people
TO retain its hold on power.
He declares himself proud Of this record
"a record Of influence over the course or
events without the responsibility OF ad-
ministration. What, then. must he think
Of those Democrats who are throwing
away opportunity to put into practice
the principles Of their party and their
platform by going over bodily TO the Re
publican protection camp? How are
these men advancing the doctrines Of the
opposition or exercising any influence
that viii be creditable TO their party?
We may judge. perhaps. from his con-
demnation Of the Democratic Repre-
sentatives in Congress who failed to sup
port the movement to reform the House
The Washington herald., 1909-04-09
Redeeming Tariff Pledges.

There is a good deal Of truth in the as
sertion Of Representative Ollie James. Of
Kentucky, that "the last utterance Of the
Republican platform was the highest pro-
tective tariff declaration ever written by
any party. II not only declared for a
rate of duty that would equalize the cost
OF production at home and abroad. but
for rate that would guarantee the
manufacturer a reasonable profit-a guar
antee that has never before been under
taken by any American administration
But in addition to this the platform de-
elares the policy Of the Republican party
10 be TO preserve. without excessive
duties. that security against foreign COM
petition TO which American manufactur-
ers, farmers, and producers are entitled. -
Here is an express declaration. with but
one qualification. for prohibitive duties
that is. duties which will shut out for
eign products altogether. eliminate for
eign competition, and guarantee the
American producer undisturbed possession
Of the home market. II is the intima-
ton OF the platform that this should be
done without the imposition of excessive
duties. but viii duties ever be regarded
as excessive unless they are above the
prohibitive point? d.
Take, for example, the hosiery sehed-
ule, which is Just now exciting so much
opposition as to give the revisers great
deal OF Uneasiness. Duties on hosiery are
already high but not high enough TO shut
out importations. The demand Of the
hosiery manufacturers Is that the duties
shall be raised high enough TO check i'm
ports and enable them to supply the
domestic market. The National Associa-
ton Of Hosiery and Underwear Manufac-
turers Of America AYERS. in a notice to
the public. printed as an advertisement in
various newspapers. that the higher duty
VIII cause no advance in price to the
consumer. but viii enable the American
manufacture "to furnish steady employ
ment 20 thousands Of workers who have
not been fully employed during the past
twelve months" The only effect Of the
duty. says this advertisement. will be
TO give employment 70 American instead
Of European labor. In other words. the
American manufacturer will be able 20
make and sell more goods because the
higher rate OF duty will compel American
consumers TO buy the home prOduct-the
home market will be assured 10 him, and
he will enjoy that security against for
eign competition which the Republican
platform promised him.
Now. under these circumstances, what
is there in the hosiery schedule that
falls TO square with the pledges Of the
Republican platform? Why. n revision
downward OF that schedule would be a
direct reputation Of the Republican plat
form

Army Furnirure and Tts Critics.

The inability OF the military authorities
to please army officers who are the re-
cipients OF governmental allowances Is
pointedly shown In a complaint which has
reached the War Department concerning
the type OF heavy furniture issued 10 all
officers quarters In this country. Alaska.
and the Philippines. Two or three years
ago Congress acceded TO the request of
the Secretary Of War and provided the
means in the army appropriation act for
the purchase Of this furniture. including
tables. chairs, hat racks bedsteads. book
cases, and so on. A special board was
appointed 10 select the standard samples.
and what is known In the trade as solid
mahogany" furniture was adopted It
will cost about sl.OOO.OoO 10 equip all the
quarters with this furniture. which saves
army officers the expense not only OF
purchasing the articles OF household
equipment. but Of the transportation Of
furniture. and spares them the loss Of
disposing OF furniture at a sacrifice, which
is sometimes necessary upon change Of
station. II was TO be expected that. un-
der such circumstances. there would be
qualification over the very generous pro-
vision.
An army oficer stationed at Fort Clark,
Tex. writes in this sprightly fashion, con-
eerning his occasion of dissatisfaction:
