I Hi itiWT?lllf " ' " ' Political TactieH. La Cirandc, July 2Gth, 1888. Editor Scout: In the Inst issue of Tub Scout you feck to contrast the position taken by the republican party in their national platform in 1884 with that of 1888, in which, by tin ingenioun omission, you make a most glaring false statement. Perhaps not a false statement, but permit a wrongful conclusion. At all times, Mr,i Edi.tor, you have claimcil Tm: Scotrr to be truly independent in politico, ns in all other tliingp. What is to bo understood by independence is not (o be wanting of opinion, but to have an opinion and to give expression to thu same without hesitation. To have opinions on any subject and not express them is to bo neutral. To have opinions and to express them, whether they may be for or against one party or the other is independence. Following out this line of thought, we take it that the columns of Tm: Hcot'T are opento discussion upon any and all subjects. In your lust issue you say thai the position taken by the reupblican party in 1888 is diametric ally opposed to that of 188-1 that is, that in 1881 that party declared itself in favor of a reduction of the revenue arising from tariil' taxes, and in 1888 that party declared jtself opposed to such a course of action. Unthought edly, perhaps, on your part, you have stated the position of the republican party falsely. Tlio republican party did not in its platform of 1888, nor at any other time, delate its opposition to the reduction of surplus revenue, and on the contrary, by its platform, by its speakers on the stump and through the medium of the press,, every expression has been favorable to a reduction of the revenue. Hut, as you, Mr. Editor, know this issue now is as to how shall the revenue be re duced? All agree that it must be re duced. President Cleveland in his message to congress says the best policy is to take the tarid'oirof raw materials, giv ing ns a reason that it will enable the manufacturer to obtain his raw materi als cheaper, and thereby manufacture his goods cheaper. In other words ho wants the manufacturer, with his mil lions, his "trusts," combinations and monopolies protected, while the farm er, the producer, the laborer and the poor man must competo with foreign cheap labor. Do you, Mr. Editor, as the- manager of an independent jour nal, with tho interest of your readers at heart, regardless of party, approve of such doctrino? Your subscribers arc composed mostly of producers. Where you have one manufacturer, yon have two hundred producers as patrons. When you decrease the in come of tho producer by advocating a reduction of the price ho must obtain for that which ho produces, aro you laboring in his interests, or aro you stooping to the level of tho wiley poli tician, and allowing your political prcdjudicos to get tho better of you? Admitting, Mr. Editor, that the re publican party in 1888 does oppose a reduction of tho revenue, it is hardly ' corn-is tent with you, as a democrat, to eensuro them for it. Did tho party you represent in your editorial col umns to earnestly ever change its opinion? The democratic party of California, in 1880, was not only op posed to free trado in wool, but de manded a higher tarill' on that pro duct. Tho democratic party of Ore gon took a similar position. Does that party hold to and advocate that view to-day? In tho national platform of 187(1 the democratic party declared "That tho soldiers and sailors of thu republic, and thu widows and orphans of those who have fallen in battle have a just claim upon tho care, protection and gratitude of their fellow citizens." llow well is Mr. Cleveland, as thu democratic head, keeping that pledge? In every platform for years thu dem ocratic party has declared itself in favor of civil servico reform. How well is your president carrying out thu doctrine? In 1850 tho democratic party do clared itself in favor of "Progressive free trado throughout tho world," which doctrine was reallirmcd in 1800. In 1808 tho samo party was in favor of "A tarill for revenue." In I88;t, tho last time the republicans bad a major ity in both branches ol congress, a lull was passed to reduce the annual rev enue about flO.OOO.OOO annually. Democrats fought tho bill by every means in their power. Why dal they do it? In tho senate only one demo crat voted for tho pnssage of the bill, and two republicans voted against it. In tho House the vote stood, ayes, re publicans, 1117 ; democrats, lf; nays, democrats, 107 ; republicans. 7. Kivo years ago our democratic friends op posed thu reduction of tho revonue. Why was this done? It was claimed to bo largely because of tho reduction of the tarill' on wool, yet in 1881, when thu republicans wanted to restore tho duty of 1807, tho proposition was de feated by the democrats. In 1851) tho Homestead Act was pasted and overy republican member of the House but one voted for it, and sixty of tho ninety-eight democratu voted no. Has tho democratic party changed its view on this subject? In 385(1 there were 30,000 Chinese, in California. Labor demanded their ex clusion. A democratic legislature ap pointed a democratic cotnmittea of enquiry which reported as follows s "Wo say tho tendency is not towards corruption. Wo think thoy havo dono uh no harm." Havo thu democrats of California changed their opinion in regard to this matter? Tho democrat ic platform of 1884 contained tho fol lowing declaration : "Wo bcliovo in a frco ballot and a, fair count." Do you Mr. Editor, believe that party Uvea up to that doctrino? During tho late war audi democratic Iwderd utf Thurjusib Vorhff, WcDcw ald ami othVa wYfo loUd in fHvIr de nunciation of the republicans for pros ecuting the war. Do you think they havo never changed their opinion on this subject? It is said that Thurman wrote the plank' in tho platform of 1801 declar ing the war a failure. Do you sup pose he would point with pride to that great act of his life? Docs Voorhces, of Indiana, like to have such men as 1 (malls, of Kansas, rake up bis (Voor hces') old speeches during the war and parade them befoie the public? Even 1 tho silver-tongued orator sent up to tench Oregon democrats the hem His of free trade, winced whin his ntten- tion was c.nwcu in ins "yuuuuiu nuns- , eretions during I he war." In 1850 (be democratic platform recognized the right of the people in all territories, "whenever tho number of their inhabitants justifies it, to form u institution and be admitted into the union upon term b of perfect equal ity with the other states." Does the democratic party adhere to and prac tice that doctrine with regard to Washington and Dakota to-day? What we have mid, Mr. Editor, has been in all kindness, believing yon to be fair-minded enough to give both sides of a question. It is hardly tho proper thing for you, Mr. Editor, to censure (lie rcpublicisu party f.r a change in sentiment, inasmuch as tho democratic party for the past two score ii! 1 . . a -.1..... yearn nan uono nouiing uut cmuiu opinions.
