must build up trade, especially for.
eign trade. We need the outlet and
the enlarged field of energy more
than we ever did before. We must
build up industry as well and must
adopt freedom In the place of arti-
fetal stimulation only SO far as 1t will
build, not pull down. In dealing with
the tarir the method by which this
may be done will be matter of judy
ment, exercised item by item.
To some not accustomed to the ex-
elements and responsibilities OF
greater freedom our methods may In
some respects and at some points
seem heroic, but remedies may be
heroic and yet be remedies. It is our
business to make sure that they are
genuine remedies. Our object is clear.
If our motive is above just challenge
and only an occasional error of judg-
ment ts chargeabIe against us, we
shall be fortunate
We are called upon to render the
country great service in more mat
tiers than one. Our responsibility
should be met and our methods should
be thorough, as thorough as moderate
and well considered, based upon the
facts as they are, and not worked out
as II we were beginners. We are to
deal with the facts of our own day,
with the facts of no other, and to
make laws which square with those
facts. 1t is best, indeed 1t is neces-
sary, to begin with the tariff l will
urge nothing upon you now at the
opening of your session which can OBJ
scure that first object or divert our
energies from that clearly defined
duty. At later time may take the
liberty of calling your attention to re-
forms which should press close upon
the heels of the tariff changes, If not
accompany them, of which the chief
is the reform of our banking and cur
rency laws; but just now l refrain.
For the present, | put these matters
on one side and think only Of this one
thing-of the changes in our fiscal
system which may best serve to open
once more the free channels of pros
perity to a great people whom we
would serve to the utmost and
throughout both rank and file.

RILEY HAS NEW SCHEME
FOR RAISING DOUGH

The mayor and members of
city council profess to be much
wrought up over the fact that a

100000 off the city's income,
necessitating a reduction Of 20
per cent in the salaries Of police
men, ,fremen and other city en-
ployes, not including the mayor
and aldermen.
A bill has been sent to the leg
islature which will alloy the city
to raise the $3,O00,000
If large corporations were fore
ed to pay the taxes due the city
under the law there probably
would have been no need for
deficit.

longing to the city now occupied
by railroads which paid nothing
in return.
The Chicago & Alton alone oc-
cupies more than 100000 square
feet of city land.
Riley figures that the land, at
a conservative estimate, is worth
20 cents a. square foot, which
would total 100000.
This land includes streets and
alleys which the railroad com
panies occupy when they buy
blocks of real estate. The part
not improved can bereclaimed by
the city, according to the map
expert.
Survey of lands occupied by
the Chicago & Western road was
ordered by a council committee.
The railroad company wanted to
buy a piece Of South Side prop
erty, but agreed to do so only in
case an ordinance vacating the
alleys is passed. This is one of
the instances spoken of by Riley.
