MENT OF THE CASE.

Than Any t>tlicr Country.
Kiould not the tariff be revised, and.
,112 not, why not?
'I he tarill' should be revised for these
tvry sufficient reasons:
lie outlook for business of all kinds,
iii • outlook l°>r the largest demand for

i\«r paid in the world's history, is
I. 't ins, in whole or in substantial
ve, would be chocked as soon as
; iv.n that tariff changes were to be
;c(l upon. That always follows
1 1' agitation in congress.
<h changes as were made would
t'y no one. They never do. Free
.ITS would only howl for more, hav
-1 nee g it some concessions from a
,:bllean congress, and would point
: inconsistencies of the new draft,
y always do. Having once got pro
mists to practically surrender,
1 keep up their hue and cry until
I ■ ret ion ist s land ill the ditch in liope
ilefeat. That was the final result
l- J, after the Kepubiicans yielded
; 1 i .111 to the free trade call for re
al and passed the McKinley bill.

suits in full that must come to the sul

Ait .titer reason why the tariff should
ie rev i.ed is that the Democratic party
1! 'iii:ui:ls it, the party with but the scat
tering vote, only scattering except in
the states where Republican leaders
li. .0 wabbled upon the great policy
that p iticaiiy created them.
In the states where the Republican

1■ ■ t 1 • stock free trade reasons, such
as, have always plunged tlie people into
distress when they have been adopted.

and r. ision should be had because we
are d ing more business In proportion

in the world and more than we ever
l.ci'-ire have done. That shows that
something serious is the matter.

never wise to let prosperity alone, nev
