The Rieht Tari8.

All persons who are open minded
on the tariff problem, would do we'll
to read the following sensible edi-
torial from the New York Sun:
When will the politicians OF this
country understand that what the
United States needs is an economic
sense, and also what will please the
electorate more than anything else, is
not high tariff nor a low tariff but
moderately protective tariff?
For long time, when the country
was in the infant industry state, a
high protective tariff answered the
purpose exactly, and nearly every
body was delighted with It. But it
was found as the country grew more
prosperous that a high tariff policy
was the breeder Of jobs, scandals and
iniquities; that 1t was apt to favor
one section OF the country more than
another and certain individuals in
the country more than others, and
was productive of social unrest.
On the other hand, whenever low
tariff policy or anything approximate
ing free trade principle was tried
1t was found that this also was somet
thing that would not work in a land
where the standards of living and the
wages paid to laboring men were SO
much in advance Of those in compete
tive nations across the Atlantic
To come down at leap from high
protective customs duties to almost
NO customs duties at all brought on
host Of difficulties The government
revenues fell short, and a high scale
OF internal revenue duties, including
vexatious and inquisitorial income
taxes, had to be substituted in their
place. 1t was also found usually that
this substitution was in itself inefti-

Hatfield Endorsed.

The efforts made by the Democratic
press throughout the state to dis
credit the administration by baseless
charges Of extravaganza and waste
fulness evidently met with little ac-
ceptance from the voters. Governor
iHatfield's courageous statement that
we need to raise and expend larger
revenues for the support of our edu-
cationaE and eleemosynary institu-
tons instead of cutting down our ex-
penditures was directly challenged
by every Democratic paper and poll
tician in the state, and the governor
got q two to one verdict In favor Of
his progressive policy, when the case
was submitted to the voters. The re-
suit can be interpreted snone other
than 1t is-an enthusiastic endorse
ment Of the Hatfield administration
and a mandate to the Legislature to
carry out the Hatfield program

That bloated condition soon disappeared,

Gent. The new income taxes were
generally 30 ciumsily drawn that they
We're either faulty from q legal point
Of view or that the amount Of money
derived from them was far less than
1t was expected to be.
Many Of our citizens remember. the
Legislative and economic cycle OF this
sort that the country has trayersed
since the days Of Mt Qseyeland's
second administration. Mr.. Cleveland
and his party came into power on e.
wave Of popular revolt against high
tarih. The work Of revising the tariff
was done bunglingiy. as was newt
able, and the program was to. repair
by means of an income tax the de-
fciency in goyernwent revenues that
iit was known would take place. But
the supreme court held that the in-l
come tax law that was then enacted
was unconstitutional. Even II the law
had been left In force the volume Of
revenue under 1t would not have
made good the loss In tariff revenue
that had been Effected Therefore
the treasury found itself in difficult
ties, which were increased by an at
tempt to put into practical operation
the free silver ideas championed by
Mr.. Bryan. Popular disgust and in
dignation became very great, and the
Democratic party was hurled from
power.
1t would be great thing II peoples
memories were long; but The fact is
that they are very short. The coun-
try is now repeating in q consider
able degreesits experience OF the first
half OF the last decade of the nine
teenth century. The Republican
party, learning nothing from the past,
as soon as 1t was placed in power
after the abolition Of the very low
tariffs favored by Mr.. Cleveland, tried
upon the country a high tariff Of the
old sort. Once more there was a, re-
volt against high protection, and
once more It has been found that low
tariffs as well as high tariffs fail to
answer the countdys needs. Once
more mills have been closed, dinner
pals have been emptied and govern
ment revenues have been unqual to-
government expenditures. All these
phenomena were presented before
the war in Europe began to compli-
cate matters.
4 A reasonable and proper mean be-
tween the two tariff extremes is
what is wanted, a tariff that will pro-
vide the government with sufficient
revenue without resort to a bother
some income tar in times of peace; a
tariff SO arranged as really to pro-
tect our industries from the cheap
labor of Europe; that will allow, for
instance, aniline dye stuffs to be pro-
duced in the United States In such
quantity that our manufacturers will
not be wholly dependent upon a for
eign country for this important
article and have their supply Of dyes
entirely cut off when that foreign
country is engaged in war.
We want sensible, honest, rea-
sonable tariff in the making Of which
neither impractical free trade theor-
lists nor greedy CAPITALISTS have al
hand.
Has not the country learned
enough about the matter by this time
to allow and demand that the right
tariff shall be enacted?

RASGooN.

Away over in Burma, among the
many mouths Of the Irawaddy and on
the road to Mandalay, there was a
strange conspiracy, Matched. 1t re-
quired score of centuries for Its
working out, but when 1t was done
1t was worth all the time and trouble.
The conspirators were oddly as
sorted. One Of them was the Buddha,
% prince Of India, who, renouncing
the pleasures of power and wealth,
went naked into the world to preach
humility and poverty. Others of the
conspirators were those religious fol-
lowers Of the Buddha who could not,
Like him, give up all their wealth to
follow a religious ideal, but who
compromised lin way not peculiar
to the Buddhist religion) by building
golden shrines to his memory. The
other conspirators were essentially
different. One was the British gov
eminent, another Scotch landscape
gardener and another an Irish chief
of police.
From the time more than two
thousand years ago when the Buddha
went forth to preach, down until our
own time. the conspiracy has been to
make in Rangoon the most beautiful
park In the world. Being British, II
is naturally named Victoria Park, but
even that can not hurt 1t. One sits
on a bench at Its eastern end and
looks through two miles of the COM
bined beauty Of blue water and green
growing things up toward the setting
sun, which gilds the golden glory Of
the great Shwe Dagon. This is the
most magnificent of religious edifices,
a round spire nearly as high as the
Washington monument, completely
covered over with sheets Of pure gold.
Such is the magnificent tomb Of one
Of the finger bones OF Buddha.
