SAYS SIMMONS STANDS PATOf OLD PARTYjPRINCIPLE He Is Not a -Free Trader" But Advocate of Incident al Protection BURDEN SHOULD BE DISTRIBUTED Not In Favor of Legislation That Will injure His Own Fate BY TAV. WASHINGTON, May 2. Nome people, who are trying to misrepre sent Senator Simmons and the dem ocratic party, have been diligent In their attempt to create a fake Imprcs slon as to the senator's position on the tariff question. His position, as clearly and strongly defined In his re cent speech, is "tariff for revenue with Incidental protection." This. say the leaders. Is time honon-d and orthodox democracy, and was taught by Vance and all other great demo crats. They point out that the dem ocratic party ncwr was, and never pretended to be a free trade parly but always contended ror tarlfl on imtpofts as a means of raising the nec essary revenue to meet the demands of the government, economically ad mlnstered. Senator Simmons posi tion I that taxes with which to sup port the goernment ought to he lev led so as to generally dlstrilxite the burden, and that the whole people may benefit by whatever protection Is Incident to such tariff taxation. To accomplish this Senator Simmons is working out with great care and abll Ity as far as the present political sit nation will tu km It, hh plan that would equally distribute the burdens of tax atlon ami equality hen?fit a'l Interests by Incidental protection. As the sen ator has still oVi, f the democrats had succeeded In the last election, their policy as to the tariff would havo been entirely different, and he him aMiedlitis. But In the present ultna tlon Senator Bimmons is unwilling fo advocate a policy that will give to other sections of the country all f the benefits of protection upon their products, and of free trade up on those of his state; one that will glw his own people the disadvantage of protection upon what they buy, and of free trade as to what they pro duce nnd sell.
