ton of the Republican party as to
make it breach of faith to lead to
its condemnation? I do not think so.
"a bill has been introduced to es-
tablish a postal savings bank. The
great difficulty in the bill seems to
have been to secure a proper provi-
sion for the management and invest
ment of the money deposited. The
Postoffice Department with its 10000
postoffices and 10000 money-order
offices, offers an economical and far
reaching machine for the purpose.

ton of Labor demand, but it is so
drawn as to make an abuse of the is
suance of injunctions without notice
very improbable.
IF the other measures to which
have referred are enacted into law
and the party pledges of the Republi-
can party performed, there would
seem to be no good reason why the
party should not receive renewed ap-
proval by the electors of the country
in the coming congressional election
But there are many signs which
many construe that the Republican
majority in the present Congress will
change to Democratic majority in
the next. This is based principally
upon dissensions in the Republican
party and the severe attacks made by
great many newspapers having Re-
publican tendencies on the party and
its leaders in Congress and in the ma
ton.
"The reason for the rise in the cost
of necessities can easily be traced to
the increase of our measure of values
the precious metal gold and possibly
in some cases to the combination in
restraint of trade The question of
the tariff must be argued out. The
prejudice created by early attacks
upon the bill and the gross misrepre-
sensations of it's character must be
met by careful presentation of the
facts as to the contents of the bill
and also as to it's actual operation
and statistics shown thereby.
WARNING TO STREET.
Il only want one word more. From
time to time attacks are made upon
the administration on the ground that
its policies tend to create panic IN
Wall street and to disturb business.
All I have to say on the subject is
this: That certainly no one respon-
sible for government like ours
would foOlishly run amuck in bust
ness and destroy values and conf
dence just for the pleasure of doing
so. No one has motive as strong
as the Administration in power to
cultivate and strengthen business
and business prosperity.
But it does rest with the national
government to enforce the law. and II
the enforcement of the law is not
consistent with the present method
of carrying on business, then it does
not speak well for the present meth
DDS of conducting business, and they
must be changed to conform to the
law"

AGAIN DEFENDS TARIFF.

I'm the Republican platform of last
year. upon which the campaign was
made, appeared a promise to revise
the tariff. We did revise the tariff.
Certainly it was not promised that
the rates on luxuries should be re-

there was a deficit promised, and it
was essential that the revenue should
be increased.
THE one substantial defect in com,
pliance with the promise of the plat
