of all the protestations that Warama

years and it was the belief of many well

with tbe death of the Emperor. But
the change was precipitated by some

At the general asrembly. Knlghtw of
Labor, on Saturday, Graud Master
Workman Powderly said : "I'm not
talking tar:ff this vear, but it seerrr? to
me that tho policy of protection is a
wrong one on la bo. The laboring
claasea are rot protected only the
manufacturer edds the duty to what
should be the natural Ed fair price for
h.s product. The burden of the tariZ
re.ts its crushirg weight upon the poor.
The tariff needs reformit:. It 1 trm
poor, the great mass of the pecule. who!
need protection, ard they will never
get it nnler the so ca'ltd policy of pto-
tection."
For a man who receives a big es.Iary
to exclusively devote himstlf to the in
terest of labor Mr. Powderly his teen a
long time finding ont the tru:a, cr at

found it out.

In considering the disasters sustained
by the npubMcan party in several
Mates, and its loss of votes In every
rart of the country the city of Phila.
Uelphia excepted some weight is to oe
attached to the consideration that this
is an oil year in politics, and that the
wort eff jear is usually that which fol
lows a Presidential el-ction. Bat there
are off yers and off years. Mr. Cleve
land had hie in !?", and then as now.
; the Republicans made a bard right to
carry 2s ew York and Virginia. The
former had Toted for Mr. Cleveland in
lSl as for Harrison in The Re
publican State ticket bad the active
support of the Mngwumps. Hot it was
defeated then as now. and general Lee
tad 10,000 majority in Virginia. Not
a sinsle Stafj was transferrea from the
Democratic to the Republican column,
and a municipal victory in Chicago was
about all the party had to ehow for its
efforts In a year proverbially unlucky
for the party in power.
It is useless, therefore, to disguise or
eenceal the ex.ent of the Republican
disasters of this year. Their explana
tion must be sought in other causes
than "the latitude wtich follows a
a Presidential campaign.-' The figures
show that the number of those who care
enough for the Republican party and its
candidates to take the trouble to vote
has fallen by a heavy percentage in
every contested State, and that in Penn
sylvania as everywhere else, while the
Democrats have sustained no such
losses.
Iowa may be speeded as the one
State In which pure local considerations
determined the election. In all the
other States there are national elements
and Influences in the problem, and first
auiong these we must place the unhap
py tone which the preseut administra
tion is giving the party. B? the indi
cation of Its preference for such politi
cians as (nay, Mahone and Piatt, it is
helping to demoralize the Republican
party everywhere, to give the worse
self In it a predominant influence, to
enable such State nominations as ex
pose the party to defeat, and generally
to steer the party down the easy de
scent to disaster. In a year's time
there has been a notable decay in its
political and moral fibre, a diminished
urgency for righteousness, fair play aad
reform. The virtues learnt in the
school of adversity have vanished like
the morning dow before ths sunsblno of
prvper!ty. Thus the very conditions
of Republican success, the attitude of
ths pirty toward public questions which
insures the interest of the most inde
pendent of the voters who accept its
jnr.cip'es, has been ubandoned in the
interests of machine politics. We do
n"t think Mr. Harrison can contem
plate the result with any marked satis
faction, or c5n0Jrice as regards the
future of the party. We assure him
that unUes he cm lift up its flag from i
the low cround where it has been D'ant-
ed sinco the 4.h of last March, the dis
as'erj cf 1SS9 will be only the begin
ninirof the chapter. The Republican
party rallied cheerfully to support him,
but it had no idea that in doing this it
was bricginK to the national direction
a clique of so'flsb. unscrupulous, low
toned gamblfr in politics ; and much
as it may esteem General Harrison,
much ns It may regret to see a Demo
crat come back to the White House, it
will no more identify itself with dishons
or hi llO and 1?02 than it wonld con-!f-ut
to do so in times p?st, when the
demand was crude that it sacrifice its
principles and its selSrefpect in order

Arthur, should certainly be accepted
as gocd authority. Such a man is Hon.
Hugh McCuIloch. Secretary of the
Treasury ucder three Republican Pres
idents, and before the organiz ion of
that party a Henry Clay whig.
In an article of some length in the
Xew York Times. Mr. McCulloch dis
cusses tbe situation of tbe country in
respect to tbe tariff. Immigration, the
race question and the matter of Feder
al interference with elections in tbe
States, tuo'ing in tbe ont set Ralph
Waldo Lrcerson'g saying that "the
Whigs had tbe best men and tbe Dem
ocrats tbe best principles," Mr. Mc
Culloch traces briefly tbe history of
both parties. Passing by what be says
on other subjects, wi come to his diss
CUFsion on tbe tariff qaestlon.
Mr. McCulloch says tbe Whigs were
for tariff for revenue, with incidential
protection. The Republican-successors
are for a tariff for protection, with re
venue as tbe Incident. That is pre
cisely the way so able a man as Major
McKinley defined the Republican poli
cy. Tbe Republicans; Mr. McCulloch
urges, look upon tariff as a msans of
suppressing foreign competition and
sustain.it aa a means of giving our
manufacturers control of tbe borne
market. Tbe Democrats, on the other
band, have already favored a tariff for
revenue only. They have held that
Congress, under tbe Constitution, baa
no authority to Impose duties to pro
tect manufacturers, its functions not
going beyond the raising of revenue.
It has no right to effect indirectly what
the Constitution prohibits it from do
ing directly. The Governmeat'a need
of revenue will always, tbe Democrats
contend, require a tariff, which in prac
tice will give Incidentally a wide mar
gin of protection to our manufacturers.
"On this point," Mr. MCulloch says,
"the Democratic party now stands
where tbe Whig party stood when Hen
ry Clay was its leader." Tbera are
men in both parties, be adds, who favor
free trade, but there is no free trad
party, nor will there be for years, If
ever.
Mr. M;Cul!cch's objections to tbe
continuance of the present tariff are
s ated very fully. It Is held that our
manufacturers no longer need protect
tion. Production being already in ex
cess of the demaadi of the borne mar
ket, there Is no reason to stimulate it
further ; tbe growth of trusts to limit
production is a sign that duties on im
ports to encourage the bulldlcg of fac
tories, etc., are no longer required.
What is rt quired in the interest of
manufacturers, wage earners acd the
people generally is a lower tariff, wider
production and entrance Into foreign
markets. Being tbe greatest produc
ing country in tbe world, our prosper
ity will be btst promoted bv engaging
in international trade. Mr. McCul
loch holds, in conclusion, that "tbe
present tariff is at war with tbe best
interests of tbe country. It Is contin
ued," he adds, "Ly being made a party
question and tbe free use of money In
elections." but its days are nearly num
bered. And so say we all. Down with
the war tariff, in tbe interest of trust
and monopoly. Pittsburg 2'ost.
