That is all.
This is not statesmanship ; it is
not a safe party policy. It is not
a safe national policy. When
people are in discontent, "adrift
and uncaptained," and prone to
"almost any wild
and untried leadership with the
hope of possible relief," the duty
of remedial action by the respon
sible Government becomes imper-
ative. till more imperative is;
the obligation to refrain from
policies that aggravate the general
distress and provoke the general
indignation.
The Dingley Tariff bill was a
confession that not revenue but a
prohibition of imports was the
Republican purpose. The Senate
bill is a confession that the need
ed increase in revenue can be got
without touching the tariff. It
would be the wisest possible poli
cy for the party, a policy that
would be acclaimed with joy by
the industries and business of the
country, to throw its tainted tar
iff bill into the waste basket, pro
vide additional income by a few
purely revenue taxes, and then to
devote itself to the neglected but
urgent question of the currency.

organs which swem incapable of
liberating themselves from the
yoke of habit, the advocates of the
bill now pending in the Senate
openly admit that if it shall be
come a law it will add enormously
to the cost of living, and that its
schedules have been constructed
with that object in view.
The cost of living, however, is a
matter of some importance to most
people. A vast majority of the
purchasers who constitute the
home market depend for their
livelihood on the income they de
rive from their labor? and since
the avowed purpose of this new
protective measure is to reduce
the purchasing power of their mon-
wage rates
ever on the amount of the wages
paid in this country. Nor would
they have any even under condi
tions of absolute free trade; for,
measured by its results, labor is
as cheap here as it is anywhere in
the civilized world

of funds to whom it has farmed
out the taxing power, this blind
party neglects altogether the great
and real reforms of which its
Presidential victory was the prom

monopoly and are oppressive to the peo

States outside of New England which
voted for McKinley, and that would mean
the utter overthrow of Republican power
in the nation. The Democrats are lining

formidable, and the Republican leaders
