take it in, but the public Is caring very
little about the game they are play
ing. Everybody knows that no other
legislation affecting the tariff is going
through at this called session, and that
it is all big game of bluff. The peO-
pie know the Democratic party is
committed to a downward revision of
the tariff, and when il gets a good
chance will do something i'm that di-
rection. Hastily prepared bills are not
creditable to the Democratic party.
and for that reason it is unwise to in
siSt on tariff revision now. Let Con-
gress act on the reciprocity measure
and quit. When Congress assemblies
regularly in the fall the Democrats
can take up the subject of tariff re-
vision in a dignifed. deliberate and
proper way, and we hope carry with
them the confidence Of the county,
Staunton Daily Leader.
