WHY ARE THEY TRAIToRsa

The tariff victory in the Senate las
week was chiefly due to the fact that
treason to Democratic principles by
Senators elected as Democrats was
made odious. The day is at hand
when traitors like Sam Randall, Ar.
thur p. German and Joe Bailey will
not be allowed to take the sacred
name Of Democracy in vain.-East

above mentioned under the villainous
charge of traitor" as an example.
Who does not remember how the
press of the country from one end to
the other rang with the praises of
Sam Randall when his star was at its
height? Arthur Pugh German served
the State of Maryland long and well,
and died with the full confidence of
his people, and while still member
Of the United States Senate, the high!
est honor the people of his State
could bestow upon him. And Joe
Bailey-we mention only his tariff
record, the matter complained of by
the Register and because of which it
brands him as traitor. The tariff
bill now being perfected in Congress
was constructed, every item of 1t but
one, upon the identical tariff views
and policies advocated by Joe Bailey
in the Senate and on the huskins dur
ing the entire time he was a member
Of the Senate. Tariff for revenue only,
high rates on luxuries, low rates on
necessities, an income tax, were the
policies Of Joe Bailey, and are the
identical provisions of the Admins
tration bill now before Congress. The
only one item it contains that is con-
trary to the views of Mr.. Bailey is the
doctrine of free raw materials, and
there are multiplied thousands of as
good Democrats as there are in the |
world who, with Mr.. Bailey, can not |
reconcile the conflicting doctrines of
free raw materials and tariff on the |
products into which they are manu-
featured. In other words, protection |
