THE SENATE AND THE TARIFF.

The senate has the tariff bill. What is the duty of
the opposition there! asks the Washington Star
There are two suggestions ) Let the measure pass
quickly. Why delay it? The country has spoken and
the the bchest is obeyed the better If the bill
is good, all well and good. Business will benefits and
prosperity is the desire of all Even those who believe
in protection protection cannot complain if it is shown
that conditions are such now low tariff with an en-
largcd free list works advantageously.

Democratic case The country did not vote last year

Democratic vote by million three hundred thousand
Suggestion number two has the greater weight. MIR

But the points debatabe are should it be halted
