A MODERATE TARIFF.

public execration. The latest is an
attack on theatrical posters. Jsow,
let it be understood we nre not de
fending any of these alleged immoral
ities. We are glad the symptoms
have developed, the rash broken out.
What wo deprecate is the sudden
dose of coodness that everybody
The tariff question is now all itn-1 seems to be catching. VTv depre-
portant, and but little else will be
done by congress until the Dingley
bill is disposed of and a new tariff
law takes the place of the AVilson bill.
"We believe there has been a great
chance in public opinion concerning
the tariff question, and especially the
protective features thereof. We be
lieve the change of opinion is not
confined alone to those who were op
posed to the tariff system, but that
those who favor it have greatly mod
ified their views. The contest has
been bitter, and now, after more
than three 'years of the Wilson bill,
its strongest supporters must con
cede that it is not calculated to meet
the running expenses of the govern
ment. As has been said of it, it was
a tariff for deficit. Yet, after all, it
has accomplished a good purpose, if
in nothing else, in modifying the
views of the ultra-protectionists, and
it has shown that there is a middle
ground on which all may meet, on
which protection can be given to
main' industries without laying too
heav a burden on consumers.

and will soon run its course and die
out. The show poster generally is
not immoral, it is simply inartistic.
It offends the sense of the beautiful,
not that of the moral. And j ct the
evil of all such things is not in the
pictures, but in the minds of those
who view them.
However, it can do no harm if we
indulge in an overhauling of our
short-comings as a people, and hold
up for our inspection all our little
peccadillos. While about it let's no

clean up. Let's start a soeiet' for
the improvement of morals, which
all qualified may join free of charge,
and so correct all those things that
need correction. We must have
only a standard of morals as a quali

financial condition not to count. All
men can join who never told a lie,
never spoke disrespectfully about
women, never told an off color story,
never read the new journals, never
indulged in profanit'. never gambled,

crnmcnt must exist as
people; the Republicans concede
that the people must prosper as well
as the government.
With these mutual concessions
there should be no trouble in ar
ranging a moderate tariff that will
raise revenue for all the ordinary ex
penses of the government, and at the
sarre time extend the benefit of pro
tection to the greatest number of in
dustries. This the Dingley bill im
dertakes to do. "Wool is a proper
subject for tariff, because it raises
revenue and at the same time ex
tends protection to the industry.
The only question is how much.
The sheepmen generally ask for from
11 to 12 cents. This may or may
not be exorbitant. It is probable,
however, that the duty agreed upon
will not be less than ." nor more than
8 cents, and this shou'd prove satis
factory. "With that rate established
it will probably stand for main' years,
both sides perceiving its justice. A
1'2 cent rate will soon awaken oppo
sition among both manufacturers and
consumers. Less than a .j-cent rate
will be perennially disturbed by the
clamorous wool gixwers. Suuar and
