fAg BREAKING UP OF THE TAR'
lEE PARTNERSHIP.

For many years group of wealthy
men had undisputed control Of the
tariff They had their experts pre-,
pare the schedules so that they be-
came the chief beneficiaries. They
procured this right, to thus exploit
the public, by virtue of a sort of part:
rership between themselves on the
one side and the congress on the
other. In exchange for these special
privileges they became the chief pat
rcns of the high protective party and
abundantly supplied that party with
campaign funds. T. ~,
The democrats, however, kept nam,
merlng away at this partnership, and
secured the passage of numerous
statutes, both state and federal
which made it unsafe for the tariff
beneficiaries to finance political cam
paigns. That gave republicans, Wht
were opposed to the system, as wei
as democrats a better chance to Sc
cure seats in the Senate and House
and their numbers have increased un
ii. the breaking up process is nov
well under way. /.
II was an infamous system ana
held up President Taft like a hlgh
wayman, and is still holding him up.

THE FINAL BREAK.

(From the Register an Leader.)
In another column we give the
substance Of the speech by the chair
man Of the committee on resolutions
before the democratic state conven-
ton that undoubtedly determined
the action of the convention on the
liquor question.
There are so many places where
the tremendous influence Of MT.
Bryan can be traced in presentday
democracy that it might be difficult
to say that one is more conspicuous
than another. But 1t may be claim
ed with assurance that Mr.. Bryan
has done nothing better worth doing
than when he set his face definitely
against continuing alliance between
the democratic party and the brew
cry.
While as a political asset in this
campaign the definite stand at
Cedar Rapids will not add anything
to the chances of Governor Wilson,
in the long run The democratic party
will gain immensely by being free
from even an implied alliance with
the liqour interests, and Governor
Wilson, If he shou'.' be elected, Will
find himself enjoying freedom that
no democrat has had in this gener-
alton. VII NJ. ~
The liquor business is now engag-
ed in a strenuous effort to re-
habilitate itself in Iowa. 1t is ask
ing for some very incidental changes
in the mulst law. If the democrat
at Cedar Rapids could have been
persuaded to assume responsibility
the coming legislature might have
found itself committed. AS it Is,
every member of the legislature will
be free from any party obligation
in the matter, and will act on his
own individual Judgment. The DEM
ocratic majority, or minority, as the
case may be, will not be found
solfd phalanx behind the brewery.
Among the many signs OF the
time of an encouraging sort, we
know of none more encouraging
than the final breaking of all politi-
cal alliances with the liquor business.

It may be taken for an admitted
fact, that q progressive republican
senator is q senator whose seat was
rot purchased for him by some spe-
cial interest. And the fact that their
number has increased Of late can
be traced in most instances to the
statutes which prohibit corporations
from contributing to political cam
paigns. and requiring publicity OF
campaign contributions. Publicity OF
campaign contributions has long been
a democratic article Of faith.
