DOES THE PRESIDENT DICTATE f
In th, conrse of considering the con
ferees report in the house Thursday,
Mr- Wil3on, chairman of the ways and
means committee, sent to the clerk's
deck and had read a private letter from
President Cleveland to himself, the lat-
- -ter'a consent having been obtained to
eivine it publicity. As the letter is a
remarkable document, and ' will here'
after be extensively commented npon
we print it in full.
THE FAMOUS LETTER.
"The certainty that a conference will
be ordered between the houses of con
grese for the purpose of adjusting the
differences on the subject of tariff legis
lation, makes it also certain that you
will be called upon again to do hard
aervice in the cause of tariff reform.
My public lhe has been so closely re-
lated to the subject, I have so longed
for its accomplishment, and I have so
-often promised its accomplishment-to
my fellow countrymen as a result of
their trust and confidence in the demo
cratic party, that I, hope no excuse is
necessary for my earnest appeal to you
that, in this crisis, you strenuously in
sist upon party honesty and good faith
and a sturdv adherence to democratic
principles. I believe these are abso
lately necessary conditions to the cm-
tiuuation of democratic existence.
"I cannot rid myself of the feeling
that this conference will present the
best if not the only hope of true democ
racy. Indications point to its action as
the reliance of those who desire the gen
uine fruition of democratic effort, the
fulfillment of democratic pledges and
the redemption of democratic promises
tp the people. To reconcile differences
in the details, comprised within the
fixed and well-defined lines of principle,
will not be the sole tatk of the confer
ence, but, as it seems to me, its mem
bers have in charge thequestion whether
democratic principles themselves are to
be saved or abandoned.'
"There is no excuse for mistaking or
misapprehending the feelings of the
temper of the rank and file of democ
racy. They are downcast under the as
sertion that their party has failed in its
ability to manage the government, and
tbey are apprehensive that efforts to
bring about tariff reform may fail, but
they are much more downcast and ap
prehensive in their fears that demo
cratic principles may be surrendered.
Under these necessary circumstances.
they do wisely to look with confidence
- to you and chose who with you have
patriotically and sincerely championed
the cause of tariff reform within demo
cratic lines and guided by those princi
ples. This confidence is vastly ang
men ted ,by the action, under your
leadership, of the bouse of representa
tivee upon the bill now pending.'
''Everv true democrat and every sin
cere tariff reformer knows that this bill,
in its present form and as it will be sub
mitted to the conference, falls far short
of the consummation for which we have
long labored ; for which we have suffered
defeat without discouragement; which,
ia its anticipation, gives us a rallying
cry in our day of triumph and which, in
its promise of accomplishment, is so in
terwoven with democratic pledges and
democratic successes that our abandon
ment of the cause and of the principles
Bn winch it rests means party perfidy
and party dishonor.
"One topic wilt be submitted to the
conference which embodies democratic
principles so that it cannot be com
' promised. We have in our platform
and in every way possible declared in
favor of the free importation of raw
materials. We have again and again
promised that this should be accorded to
our people and our manufacturers if the
democratic party was invested with the
power .o determine the tariff policy of
the -ountry. The party has now thai
power. We are as certain as we have
ever been of the benefit that would ac
crue to the country from the inaugura
tion of this policy, and nothing has
occurred to release us from our obliga
tion to secure this advantage to our
people.
"It must be admitted no tariff measure
can accord with democratic principles
and promises or bear the genuine demo
cratic badge that does not provide for
five raw materials. In these circum
stances it may well excite our wonder
that democrats are willing to depart
from this moft democratic of all tariff
principles and that the inconsistent
absurdity of such a proposed depart re
rliould he em phar-ized by the suggestion
that the wool of the farmer be put on
th free list, and the protection of tariff
taxation be plaed around the iron ore
and coal of the corporations and capi
talists. How can we facw the people
after indulging in such outrageous dis
criminations and violations of princi
ple? It is qnite apparent this question
of free raw material does not admit of
attjiirtment on any middle grounds,
aiuce their subjection to any rate of tariU
taxation, great or small, is alixe a viola
tion of democratic principle and demo
cratic good faith. I hope you will not
consider it intrusive if I say something
in relation to another subject, which can
hardly fail to be troublesome to the con
ference. I refer to the adjustment of
tariff taxation on sugar. Under
our party platform, and in accordance
with our declared party pnrposes sugar
is a legitimate and logical article of rev
enue taxation. Unfortunately, however,
incidents have ac-otnpanied certain
stages of the legi lation which would be
subruitted to the conference that have
aroused in connection with this subject,
a national democratic animosity to the
methods and manipulation of the trust
and combinations. I confess to sharing
in this feeling, and yet it seems to ine
we ought, if possible, sufficiently to free
ourselves from prejudice to enable us to
cooly weigh the considerations which, in
formulating tariff legislation, ought to
gu:de our treatment of sugar as a tax
able article. While no tenderness
should be entertaiued for trusts, and
while I am decidedly opposed to grant
ing them, under guise of tariff taxation,
any opportunity to further their par
ticular methods, I snguestwe ought not
to be driven away from the democratir
principle and policy which lead to the
taxation of sugar, by the fear quite
likelv exaggerated that in carrying out
this principle and policy we may indi
directly and ordinarily encourage a com
bination of sugar-refining interests. 1
know in the present conditions this if a
delicate subject, and I appreciate the
depth and t-trength of the feeling which
its treatment has aroused. I do not be
lieve we should do evil that good may
come, but it seevns to me we should not
forget our aim is the completion of the
tariff, and in taxing sugar for proper
purposes and within reasonable bounds,
whatever else may be eaid of our action,
we are in no danger of running counter
to democratic principles. There must
be in the treatment of this article tne
same ground upon which we are all will
ing to stand, where toleration and con
ciliation may be allowed to solve the
problem without demanding the entire
surrender of Qxed conscientious convic
tions." I ought not to prolong this letter.
If what I have written is unwelcome, I
beg you to believe in my good inten
tions. In the conclusions of the confer
ences touching the numerous items
which will be considered, the people
are not afraid that their interests will be
neglected. They know that the general
result, so far as they are concerned, will
be to place home necessaries and com
forts more easily within reach and to in
sure better and surer compensation to
thoee who, toil. We know that a tariff
law, covering all the interests and con
dition's of a country so vast as ours,
must, of a necessity, be largely the re
sult of honorable adjustment and com
promise.
"I expect very few of us can say, when
your measure is perfected, that all of
its features are en irely as we would pre
fer. You know how much I deprecate
the incorporation in the proposed bill of
the income tax feature. In matters of
this kind, however, which do not violate
a fixed and recognized democratic doc-
lime, we are willing to defer the jndg
ment of a majority of our democratic
brethren. I think there is a general
agreement that this party duty is more
palpably apparent when we realize that
the businees of our country timidly
stands and watches for the results of
our efforts to perfect tariff legislation ;
that a quick and certain return of pros
perity waits upon a wise adjustment,
and that a confiding people still trust in
our hands their prosperity and well
being. The democracy of the land
pleads most earnestly for the speedy
completion of the tariff legislation,
which their representatives have under
taken ; but they demand no less earnest
ly that no stress of necessity shall tempt
their trustees to the abandonment of
democratio principles."

Sarsaparilla
S. P. Smith, of Towanda, Pa.,
whose constitution was completely
broken down, is cured by Ayer's
Sarsaparilla. He writes:
" Foe eight years, I was, most of the
time, a great sufferer from constipa
tion, kidney trouble, and indiges
tion, so that my constitution seemed
to be completely broken down. I was
induced to try Ayer's Sarsaparilla, and
took nearly seven bottles, with such'
excellent results that my stomach,
bowels, and kidneys are in perfect con
dition, and, .in all their functions, as
regular as clock-work. At the time
I began taking Ayer's Sarsaparilla, my
weight was only 129 pounds ; I now can
brag of 159 pounds, and was never in so
good health. If you could see me bee
fore and after using, yon would want
me for a traveling advertisement. -I
believe this preparation of Sarsaparilla
to be the best in the market to-day."
