How the consuming public will view
this new tariff bill, every schedule Of
which contains as great scandals as
that involved N the wool tax, will
hardly have time to make itself evil
dent at the November election, as the
rates will hardly be in operation be-
fore that time and consequently the
burdens will not be realized. but fol-
lowing the passage Of high tariff bills
in the past the public reaction has
been swift and effective for the time.
But always, after few years, the
beneflciaries of the high tariff, trust
ing to the short memories Of the peo-
pie, again come back demanding more.
In the days of Benjamin Harrison the
Republican congress passed the Nc
Kinley bill and was promptly driven
from power. In 1892 Cleveland was
elected on a pledge to reduce the
tariff; the interests managed to defeat
the will Of the people in that respect
and Cleveland was repudiated. Then
followed the Dingley bill and the Re-
publicans were barely enved from de-
feat by the coming of the Spanish war.
Then the Payne-Aldrich bill drove
them out again. Will the Smoot bill
