tho rlkht direction. Indeed, It should have
been begun long ago. While the Mckin
ley bill lis sotno good feature, like the
alterations In the sugar schedules, It has
several bad ones. These bad one, of
course, do not altogether neutralize the
good, but as ti ere Is no valid reason why
there should be any bad one al all their
existence I a detriment to the meaure, an
Injustice to the country and a aerlou
menace to the stability and potency of the
party. Against these bad piovlstons the
raising oi the level of Imposts In several
schedules ol the bill every consistent and
public spirited republican should vigor
ously protest.
The attitude ol the republicans ol the
West toward tho tariff may be outlined In
a few word. Revision of the dutle to
which the party pledged Itself In iHHH they
Interpreted to mean reduction. Thl I
the construction which has been placed
on the phrase In thl section. Moreover,
It Is the only construction which Is In har
nony with either logic or propriety.
Every republican stumn speaker who ap
peared In the West during the canvas of
i8iH, and every representative republican
new. pncr of the West understood and
proclaimed lhat by revision reduction was
indicated. The West Insist that, when
duties are touched, they sha. I be lowered.
Thev say, leave the rate a at present In
the case In which it msy appear desirable
to make no modification, but let every
change be a change downward.
Ho tar we have ever been able to learn
from a tolerably careful and conscientious
stuiy of the matter, there I not the
thadow of an excuse lor a single Increase
of duty which I made by the McKlnley
bill. Hot one argument ha ever been
presented lu defense sf thl policy which
is worthy of a moment's serious considera
tion. The Industrie affected have been
running along under the prevailing I n
post since iMj, and If any of them have
uffcrcd by the arrangement In these
seven yesis the fact was carefully con
ccaled from the country until the framing
of lite new tariff bill gave an opportunity
to certain Interest lo secure higher rate
and make greater profits. Thc time ha
cotio for Wtticrn Udpubltcan to openly
and clearly define their polilun In ltd
particular.

A clicumttantc of the tariff debate much
stole discoursing loth Kcpuhlicaa Senator
thsa it prubab'e length it ilieir demoattratcd
iaxtati'y to break ibtoughthe so iJ IWmocratic
liae. TKey have tried to pierce it by a series
of clever msnoeuvie. but only lo It repulsed
each lime by a response so beany and unanim
ous as lo make the tluagl( of further effurt ia
thst direction eniiicly idle.
Il i no secret now tbst al the outset tlx
epobUcant tttoulii they uw their way lo
pot Mr Gorman sad Mr Md'hcrwHi la aa
embarrtfcting attitude. Both of those Session
ere looked upon at having distinct I'rotec

the aewspsper list of ibotefkmocrstic lead

taca s"0 ut Congress by Mr CWvetaad." More-
ovrWiij:t that Mr M-.IIterson hsd voted
for ibe Taiiff Will ol iKSj, when hi party op
posed il, was made the basis of a nope thai
prolwbly he might be influenced this lime by
observing that the schedule relating lo the in-
dastiie of hi State had been ttudioasly cared
for by ibe House.
ibe Republican calculation, bowevet, was
mistaken one. Neither senator, when re
proached with bis past record t.vl position,
could be made to flinch. Both confessed
liaekly to the position they bad a, one n-ne
occupied, aid both a fraokly staled that they
stood with their psity lo-rfay. Mr Gorman
was m.st explicit on this oini, sad Mr Mc
pherson lis cmphssMed his declaration by
moving a reduction of the rate of the very
schedule which il wat thought wouU at least
snake him silent when they were leached. He
courageously related ibe bait and has tailed
for a reduction all through the earthenware
schedule.

There are no Protection Democrat, a thai

taxation. The bxt is now on the other leg,
The bolt is in the other party and it is growing
serious, Mr Plumb, Mr Teller, Mr Paddock,
aad even Mr Ingatls in many thing are much
earei to the Democratic than they are to the
Republican view of taxation.
Their vote and utteiances to far ia this de

-TllBCItOWMNO ACT Of INFAMY."
The Crowning Act of Infamy!" Thia
s what the republican farmers of Minne
sota call the McKlnley Tariff bill. It Is a
fitting name for a measure that It a piece
cl chsrlatanry from top to bottom, and,
metaphorically speaking, is the "last hair
'iat breaks the camel's back." There can
bo but one opinion, and, by this, we mean
an honest opinion, about such a bill. Mr,
Blaine took In Its true inwardness when
he wrote to Senator Fryes There is not
a section or a line In the entire (McKln
ley) bill that will open a market for
another bushel of wheat or another barrel
of pork.
Think of what Blaine says, for It Is
worth pondering I Here It a bill lhat pre
fesse lo be a great administration measure
that seeks to outline the policy of the
government for years to come In the mat
ter of duties on foreign Imports In fact
change our past policy which a member
of the cabinet says will not "open a mar
ket for another bushel of wheat or another
barrel of pork." Farmers, what do you
think of such a bill, and what do you
think of such a policy f The thiee great
articles of export, of this country, are
cotton, wheat and flour and the quantity
ol these products sent abroad mark the
prosperity ol our agricultural inter
the contrary. In view ol the situation
would not a party, that has any ser.se at
the head ol It; a party that has the Interest
ol the fanner at heart, endeavor to open
new marets everywhere, where an addi
tional bale of cotton, an additional bushel
of wheat, or an additional barrel ol flour
could be sold? Such I the view of every
business man. But this is just what the
McKlnley tariff bill docs oot Co. Blaine
ssys so, and he knows. Could we have a
belter witness on the. stand? We don't
think o. He Is a republican, and, there
fore, a friendly witness. Please listen,
again, farmers, especially republican
farmers, to what a tariff expert says of
the McKlnley bill. Here are his words:
There is not a section or a line in the
entire (McKlnley) bill thai will open a
market for another bushel of w heat or
another barrel of pork. Think about It
farmers! Ponder and reflect upon It! For
what line ol products will it then "open a
market?" None, whatever. It wilt have
a tendency to close tSem; it I bated on
the Chinese wall ststcm, which rests on
the "borne market." A wickeder fallacy
In political economy was never conceived
by the mind ol man. What fallacy to talk
about a home market when the price ol
every barrel of pork and every bushel of
wheat is fixed In the London market
The McKlnley bill means mote. It
was conceived In the Interest of the great
manufacturers, "he monopolists, and the
tariff las Is largely Increased on many ol
the necessaries of life, which other classes
must purchase al an Increased price. The
interest ol these rr.cn so entirely Jllcd Mr
McKlnley 's eye when he drew his Infam
ous bill, he could not see the Interest of
the UrMMi k any wonder, the Jilt),
this "crowning act of Infamy," does not
open a market lor another bushel of
wheat or another barrel of pork?" No!
It is quite naioial that It does not. Mc
Klnley and the republican parly are not
built that war. Lkyltuav.n Demaetat.

The Western farmer has no Interest
hatcver In a protective tariff. His inter
est rather lies in the direction of tree trade
- of access to alt markets whatever his
product may be In demand. It is for hii
nlercst lo sell what he raises wherever In
all the wide world he can find a purchaser,
and thus provide himself with the means
cf disposing of his surplus crops. Not
only it he vitally Interested In securing all
possible markets, but equally so tn buying
what he needs at cheaply at possible. Sell
where he may, and buy at the lowest
figures; this, selfish as it mays.: em, is
what most concerns the Western farmer.
Free trade will give the West the mar
kels of the world, and an opportunity to
buy what it requires at less than half it
now pays for these same articles.
Lumber, hardward, furniture, clothing,
groceries and agricultural Implements
these the West needs'prtnclpally. Free
trade will biing these things tout at figure
frr below protective prices.
In all this the ( Aomloa speaks tolely
from tne standpoint ct self-interest. It i
with tlatct and sections as with individual
citizens self-preservation is the first obli
gation, A due regard to our sectional
preservation, our territorial interest, de
mands the adoption of free trade com
mercial reciprocity with all nations. The
Eet, as wc have stated, hat grown danger
ously rich by means of a protective tariff;
now let the West assert itself and ute the
mean at Its command to change lit
economic policy to one more conducive to
tectlonal welfare.
The question is broader than party
lines. It Is more vital than mere formal
political dominance of any particular set
of politicians, for It touches our life and i
indissolubly Interwoven with our existence.
Protection continued twenty years
longer, and the West, with its vast agri
cultural possibilities, would be a pauper
bound hand and foot. Let us who live
here in the West be fools no longer, but
let us exercise our common sense and
protect our own Interests by obtaining
just as quickly as possible, the freest trade
wli.h all its attendant be.iefils. Atchison
