TARIFF REFORM
TIL MAIN ISSUE
Former Gov. Joseph W. Folk
Gives His Political Views

Os'NS
St. Louis Mo-, Sept. 26-'ln-
surgency"is deathless movement
like all revolutions, and if the DEM
ocratic party remains Democratic
it will profit by the movement ac-
cordiug to former Gov. Joseph W.
Folk, OF Missouri, who was recent
ly indorsed for president by the
Missouri Democratic State Conven-
ton. In those states where the
Democratic party stands for real
Democracy and the Republican or
ganizstion for privilege, said Folk
to-day, Democracy is certain to
win.
Folks recent selection by his
own state as man of presidential
measure makes his views of partic-
ular Importance to the Democrats
of the United States, and in an IN
terview which he granted here to-
day the famous former graft pros
ecutor of St. Louis made his ideas
on national questions as plain as
language can. lie characterized
"insurgency" as "the cry OF the
many against the injustice of being
exploited by the few" he said that
the protective tariff is a special
privilege, to which Democracy
must be opposed; and declaring
that a tariff Commission would at
this time serve no useful purpose.
Folk made the real tariff question
one of whether the people want a
tariff for monopoly or a tariff for
revenue only. The former Gov
ernor said that the tariff had rails
ed the cost of living for all classes,
particularizing farmers and labor
ers, aud he asserted that those who
"desire the injustice of privilege to
be eliminated" will vote for Demo
Gratis of the right kind as members
of the next Congress. He believ-
ing that the next house will be Dem
ocratic therefore.
"The insurgent movement" said
Folk 'ls merely the cry of the
many against the injustice of being
exploited bv the few. 1t is a de-
mand for tie duplication of Dem
ocratic principles in the affairs of
government. There is tidal wave
of democracy arising in the hearts
of men. This movement will not
die, for it is revolution and revo-
lutions never GO backwards. The
concience of the people has been
aroused. These democratic prin-
ciples that the people Iare contend
ing for do not oppose wealth hon
estly acquired, but they attack
the privileges that produce tinted
riches on the one hand and the I'M
deserved poverty on the other hand.
Real democracy is not an enemy to
honest enterprise, but on the con-
tray the friend to Legitimate indus
try and development. All that it
demands is that each man be Civ
en- an equal opportunity to live and
labor and ENJOY the fruits of hon
est toll. 1t would safeguard prop
ertY rights, but recognizes the fact
that property rights ara hest safe
guard by preserving inviolate pub
lie rights. As privilege increases
opportunity is diminished, and as
opportunity diminishes the rights
of the individual are destroyed. "
