DEMOCRATIC PARTY -?

That eighteen Democratic Senators
should have voted with AldrIch yester-
day to take iron ore from the free list,
and tax it - cents ton. goes far
towards answering the question why
there is no Democratic party. With
brains and principles both out OF 1t,
why should it pretend to be alive any
longer? Free iron ore was one OF the
cardinal features of the Wilson bill
as it passed The House in 1894. Two
proposals were made, while the
schedule was under debate IN the
House, to put a duty on iron ore, but
both we're voted down. one by a vote
of l36 TO 10, the other by 100 10 D.
The duty was put back by the Senate.
in 1895 rs yesterday. but this wus one
of tine things which President Cleve-
land had in mind when he denounced
the Senate changes as work OF
"perfidy and dishOnor." Free raw
materials in general. have been the
battlecry of Democrats for years: but
when bill comes up from Repuoll-
can House making iron ore free, over
half of the Democratic Senators Join
hands with hidebound Republican pro-
tectionists to put back the duty. The
force of disqualification could not go
further.
1t is not simply question OF iron
ore: the whole iron and steel schedule
will be affected by the decision TO tax
the raw material The pretense OF its
being a revenue duty is too pititul.
The entire estimated revenue on iron
ore. leaving out the Cuban product,
which comes 10 under the reciprocity
treaty, is Sll7,00 That is pretty thin
salve for the conscience of the recreant
Democratic Senator's. They might
better have frankly said that they
voted at the demand of powerful pro-
tected interests in their States. After
this, all their prating about wishing
to remove tariff burdens and hating
monopolies will only show how fond
they are of being laughed at. They
| had a chance to take away needless
tariff favor from corporation which
owns or controls more than half OF
the iron ore in this country, but sided
with the high-tariff champions un-
blushngly. The &C action of the lie
publican House, and of ithe fourteen
Republican Senator's who went on
record for free iron ore, shines by
comparison. And no man knows
what scheming of corporations and
manoeuvres of monopolists may not
be behind THE restoration of the tax
