JOT I love the principles of true Democracy be- cass they are founded on patriotism and Gpon justice and fairness toward all interests, 1am proud of my party organization because it is conservatively sturdy and persistent in the enforcement of its principles, Therefore Ido not despair of the efforts made by the House of Representatives to supplement the bill already passed by further legislation and to have engrafted upon it such modifications as will more nearly meet Democratic hopes and aspirations, I eatpet be mistaken as {0 the necessity of free raw material asthe foundation of logical sud sensible tariff reform. The extent to which this is recognized in the legislation already secured is one of its encouraging and redeeming features, but it is vexatious to reenll that while [free coal and iron ore have been denjed us, & recent letter of the Secretary of the Treasury discloses the fact that both might hove been made free by the annual surrender of only about £700,000 of UnnecTEsAry revenue, I am sure that there is a common babit of underestimating the importance of free raw materials in tariff legislation, and of regard. ing them as only related to concessions to be made to our manufacturers, The {ruth is their influence is so far-reaching that if Jdis- regarded a complete and benefloient scheme of tariff reform cannot be successfully ine nugurated, When we give to our mabafacturers free raw materials we unshackie American enter- prise and ingenuity, and these will open the doors of foreign markets to the reception of our wares and gives opportunity for the eon. tinuous and remunerative employment of American labor, , With materials choapened by their freedom from tariff charges, the cost of their product must be correspondingly eheapened. There. upon justice and fairness to the consumer would demand that the manufacturers be obliged to submit to such a readjustment and modifiestion of the tariff upon their finished goods as would secure to the people the benefit of the reduced cost of their mans. facture and shield the consumer against the exaction of inordinate profits, It will thus be seen that free raw materials and a just and fearless regulation and reduc- tion of the tariff to meet the changed condi tions would earry to every humble home in the land the blessings of increased comfort and cheaper living, The millions of our countrymen who have fought bravely and well for tarifl reform should be exhorted to continue the struggle, boldly challenging to open warfare and con- stantly guarding against treachery and half- heartedness in their camp, Tariff reforms will not be settled until it is honestly and fairly settied in the interest nod to the benefit of a patient and long-suffering Yours, very truly, Grover CLEVELAND. peo ple.
