A FREE TRADE BOOIE.
The following from the Daily Antorian
to loatljr and forcibly put the car, that
we give It to oar readers with onr en
dorsement:
The New York Herald, the leading
organ of tbe rlcb importer! of that city,
baaalwajs len a sealoua advocate of
free trade. It face la set against pro
tection in any form. Hence it bitterly
opposes an extra session of congress
oezt spring to pass a republican protec
tive tariff measure. It says :
"An extra session of congress would
be cloee to a positive affliction. Ask the
merchants, whorelooking forward to
period of prosperity, what they think of
it. It may do very well.for the politi
cian, wbo bave lueir own little axes to
grind, and who don't carewbo tarns tbe
grindstone, but so'. far as tbe rest cf IhS
people are concerned it would be dis
astrous. It would sandbag business and
so dare our merchants that new enter
prises and ventures would come to a
standstill."
The Herald is disiogennous. What
caused the stagnation in commerce and
industry after tbe election of Cleveland
in 1892, whereby it became certain that
democratic tariff tinkeringwonld com
to paes?
Every importer stopped importing,
aod devoted his energies to disposing of
the stock of foreign goods he bad on
hand. He wished toait until the new
tariff went into operation, so that he
could import at a low rate of duly.
Every manufacturer whose products
would be affected by the importation of
similar foreign goods at lower duties,
stopped manufacturing goods for a mar
ket six months ahead. To avoid Joes be
bad to wait until the new tariff law was
enacted, so that he could ascertain bow
far his interests were affected.
Wboletale and retail merchants bought
only those goods for wbicn there was an
immediate demand, and reduced their
stocks as low as possible, to avoid loss
frooa the new and lower scale of prices
which tbe lower tariff would make in
evitable. Hence the business stagnation was in
duced by the reduction of the tariff on
competing goods. Tbe threat hanging
over all was a reduction of duties a re
duction which was so great that, even
with increased imports, the revenue de
rived from duties baa never equalled the
expenditures of tbe gove?nment.
Tbe extra session of congress will be
called to enact a tariff law on opposite
lines. It is to give adequate protection
to the domestic manufacture of foods
with which imported goods compete.
There will be nothiog in this proced
ure to cause any importer to stop im
porticg, or manufacturer to cease manu
facturing, or merchant to let his stocks
run down. The enactment of a protect
ive law will improve tbe conditions of
domestic industry and commerce, not
cripple them.
This is not a mere theory; it is proved
by facts. Look Lack to 1890, when the
McKinley bill was being debated in eon-
grate. Business was Driex, tne muis
and factories were all working. The re
vision of tbe tariff on protective lines
did not injure any business interest. It
is tbe threat of a removal of adequate
protection which is injurious.
The Herald's argument is fallacious
and insincere. The extra session will
briog none of tbe evils which it predicts.
It will promote prosperity, not hinder it.

A CAUCUS LAST NIOHT. .
Salkm, Jan. 13. A caucus was held at
the capitol last night and John H.
Mitchell was unanimously nominated for
senator. There were present 43 republi
cans andone populist, the latter being
Nosier.
When the caucus convened and It -was
found thtt'only a minority wss present
there was considerable objection to ae
ii jn of any sort being taken, but the ob
jectors were silenced by the reading of a
letter from Senator Carter, in which be
declared that be would abide by tbe cau
cus, and a statement from Patterson of
Marion that his collesgae, Geensr, would
vote for the nominee.
The caucus was called to order by
Brown of Morrow. There were present
13 senators and 29 representatives, as
follows:
Benson,
