X. Y. Tribune. Ideili of Ptriotiim. Kmm the New York Tribune. Jovernor McKinly is so intimately as sociated w ith the economic iiolicies of the l.epuliiieaii party that he is commonly re garded as a tariff del later rather than an orator of commanding presence, stateli nessof mumier and dignity of diction. His address this week in Auburn, the historic scene of many of Mr. Seward's most notable, orations, was a ret elation of the reserved uwerand admirable gifts of one of the most ai-complishcd men in American public life. It whs a familiar talk on patriotism, which he defined com prehensively as the best politics; and it was characteri7.ed from U'giuniug to end with nobility of thought, with purity of sentiment ami with sympathetic appre cialiain of the supreme viriue of consecra tion to country. No linertrilmte haslaeen paid to the sacrifices and sufferings of the veterans of the w ar than this eloquent ad dress contained. Not one word in tlovernor McKinley's oration on patriotism was intended to have any (olilical significance tat partisan effect ; Imt no one could have listened to it without being impressud with the es sential difference Itclween the soldier's ideal of consecration to country and anoth er ideal of w hich the American people have heard frequeut mention during re cent years. The patriotism which in spired the veteran soldier's reminiscences and eloquence was licit hrr preached from the hoiix'lops nor proclaimed in rhctori cal phrase, but simply practisHl, and never ly proxy. It involved fighting for home and principles, alumdonment of business and cherished plans, the sunder ing of family Winds and social relations, exssure l hunger, thirst, disease, death and the horrors of imprisonment. That wascniisccraliani which liegan and ended with saTiti:-e. Thirty years ajjo herois.n was the hahit of every American w hose- life was worth living, and the bravest soldier would not have ventured to strike an attitude and with word or gesture con sa.-cratc himself to his country. That ideal of silent, self-sacrificing de votion ta country is old-fashioned now. A now (reiteration has sprung up, which dares to speak contemptuously of the vet' era i is of the war as mercenary pension grabbers. It offers cheap incense at the shrine of a self-conscious (Mimical leader. who is in a chronic state of turgid plati tude and ostentations consecration to principles and policies involving neither sacrifice nor courage. DEXOCSACY BRANDED. Party Treaehe'y and 1if honor. What the President Really Thought of the Gorman Tariff. livery true Ilcinocrat aud every sincere tariff reformer knows that this bill in its present form and as it will lie submitted to the conference falls far short of the consummation for which we have long labored, for which we have suffered dt feat without discouragement, which in its anticipation gave us a rallying cry in our day of triumph, ami which in its promise of accomplishment is so interwoven with IteiiKM-ratic pledges and lleuiocratic suc cess that our aliandonmeiit of the cause of the principles upon which it rests means party perfidy and party disliainor. M"i7' WITH ITS VIOLA HONS OF ntlXCII'I.K. It is quite :tpKirent that this quest inn of free raw materials does not admit of ad justment on any middle ground, since their subjection to any rate of tariff taxa tion, great or small, is alike violative of iH-mocratic principle and iK'ntas-ratic pood faith. M'ilmm IrltT. AMI firi ltAOKors MsrltlMIV ATIOXS. It must lie admitted that no tariff meas ure can accord with iK'inoeratic princi pies and promises or bear a genuine Iiemocratic badge that dot not provide for free raw material. In the circum stances it may well excite our wonder that iK'iiioerats are willing to depart from this, th most IK'inoeratic of all tariff principles, and that the inconsistent al- surdity of such a (imposed departure shoubl lie emphasized by the suggestion that the wool of the farmer lie put on the free list and the protection of tariff taxa tion lie placeal around the iron ore aud coal of corjxirations ami capitalists. How ran we f:-e the peple after indulging in such outrageous discriminations and vio lations of principles? Wilmiu Isttrr. TO BtlXlMmXKD t'XIIKK SO STRESS OK WKsslTV. The Iieimx-raa-y of the land plead most earnestly for the Kpeedy completion of the tariff legislation which their repre s.titatives have undertaken ; Imt they demand not less earnestly that no stress of necessity shall tempt those they trust to the abandamment of Iiemawratic prin ciples. Wiljoim Lrtter. WHAT HK THINKS OF IT STH.U Hut there are provisions in this bill whi h are nat in line with honest tariff reform, and it contains inconsistencies and crudities which ought not to appear in tariff laws or laws of any kind. Ila side, there were, as you and I well know, incidents accompanying the passage of the bill through the Congress which made every sincere tariff reformer un happy, while influences surrounded it in its latter stage anal interfered with its fi nal ooiistnu-lion which ought not to tie recognised or tolerated in lleuiocratic tariff reform counsels. (ttching lsttrr, AS THE llEAIILT BI.IOHT OF TREASON. I take my vn w ith the rank and file of the IieuHtreatie party who ls-lieve in tariff reform and w ell know what it is, who refuse to accept the results emUHlied in this bill as the close of the war, who are na4 blinded to the laa-t that the livery of Democratic tariff reform lias been sto len and worn in the service of Republi can protection, and who have market! the places where the deadly blight of treason has Masted the counsels of the brave in their lioorof might. ft'cAi"iqi Tsttrr.

He found two tremendous forces or ganizing against him, the women ami the churches. One of the first of thoso organizations was the Lcxingtam "Wom en's Anti-Itreckinridgo Club," whia-h raised thousands of dollars to spend in any manlier which promised to help defeat liret-kiiiridge ami elect Owens Itreckinritlge went intai the actual bat tle in July, liackctl by the Federal oHiee holders of the district, by the county ami Sttitc organization of his party, anil to saune extent by tho National Congres sional Committee in Washingttm. It was not a very formidable array, but the leatler was a force in himself, through his keen knowledge of practical (silitics his undoiibleal, eloquence, and a capacity for continuous hard work which is noth ing less than marvelous At the 1 it-ginning of the campaign Hreekiiiridge assumed the role of a meek and lowly rcpenteiit He confessed, dc clarcal himself sanctified by rcH'iitancc, anil sought forgiveness aud sympathy. Rut this attitude hail to lie abaiialoneat The opHisitioii gave him no quarter. W, C. Owens Ids youthful opiouciit, was out for light, not palaver. Most of all, the women hooted the repentance dodge. Then the cimpuigii grew hotter. Breck inridge talked less of rcieiitaiice ami for giveness, having that to the few church friends who had rallied to his supiort, ami devoted his own energies tai reiclliug the fresh charges made against him, and making charges iu return. Rapidly the w hole Mipulation of the district la-came involved in the contro versies of the. campaign. Rut always the women were iu the lead. Their chilis adopted mle: calculated tti prevent any of .the gallant young men of the district enlisting under Rreckinridge.
