THE PARAMOUNT ISSUE.

Long before the meeting or the
Democratic National Convention in
Baltimore in June last, the Demo
Gratis Of the country had determined
upon the main issue that should be
set forth in the platform of the party,
and upon which it would enter the
contest for the Presidency. And that
main issue was the Tariff.
And 20 responding to the sentiment
Of the masses Of the party, the con-
vention made this the paramount is
sue of the campaign. Woodrow Will
son in his speeches since his nomi-
nation has sounded this. key note.
During the present week h. has been
in Pennsylvania, the very citadel Of
protection, preaching the Democratic
doctrine of tariff for revenue only"
Tt j. not surprising that the tariff
should b. the leading issue, inasmuch
a. IL touches every man, woman and
child in the country, and with it's
Republican protective features lays
pie need, from baby's rattle, to the
coffin that encloses, the remains OF the
grandfather, sweeping In everything
from the cradle to the grave. Moth
ing escapes it. And it is so insidi-
Gus in it's application, that no man,
without painstaking examination,
knows what he is taxed upon, OF how
much tax he Is paying.
4 brief glance at the history Of the
tariff shows a remarkable condition.
In the earlier period of the country,
the doctrine of a protective tariff was
put forth with the idea Of helping,
what was known al our infant in
dustries," just to hold them up, as
against the foreign manufacturer,
until they could stand alone. The
whole system, however, was founded
upon the favoritism of the govern
ment, which, a. an economic propo-
sition, is unsound and vicious. These
infants" never did get strong enough
in their own estimation, to be willing
to let 20 the maternal breast, and now
being full grown and robust and de-
fiant, are sucking away with tight
er hold than they had seventy-five
years ago, and will keep on to the
end of time, unless their grip is
broken BY the Democratic party.
The Republican party promised in
it, platform Of four years ago, to re
wise the tariff, giving the country to
understand that the revision was to
be downward. But was it so? No it
was not 50. The revision was made
but it was upward and not downward
The present Payne-Aldrich tariff law
lays heavier duties than any tariff
that has existed since the foundation
of the government.
And SO the Democratic party is, in
the present campaign, fighting the
battle Of the people, that they may
escape the burdensome taxation
which is levied upon them by the in
EQUITIES of the system of high protec-
ton and returning to that sys-
tenn of tariff taxation which the
Democratic party has always stood
for, and which takes only the amount
of money from the pockets of the peo-
pie, to economically conduct the af-
fairs Of the government
Anything more than that has al
ways been denounced by the Demo
cratic party, as robbery by law"
