provisions of the boud hill, could be
regarded as a separate publication
mailable at third-class rates.
Such a requirement would subject the
vast publishing Interests of the country
to ntvdltw experw and annoyance.
There Is no popular demand for such
radical abridgements of the rights that
have been accorded b legitimate pub
lishers. The bill should be amended In
the senate In such a way as to leave
no excuse for imposing unnecessary
hardships upon newspaper publishers.
The deficiency In postal receipts can be
made up by compelling the government
to pay postage on the great mass of de
partmental stuff that the postal depart
ment must handle every year free of
charge and which amounts In the ag
gregate to thousands of tons.

There is an erroneous impression
abrjad that the near secretary of the
treasury, Lyman J. Gage, is either a
Democrat or i free trade Mugwump.
Neither of these vienva is entreat. He
is a Republican voter. That Is to say,
be h a beiiever in the cardinal prin
ciples of tne Kepubik-an party.. He is ,
not a Detnocrat, but a "democrat"
that Is. taking the word in its original
meaning of one in favor of "government
by the people," which is the significa
tion Is? the word. Here are his own
words as to his political belief: "I
am a democrat in the sense that I be
tteve in a governraent ct the people, by
the teople and for the people. I do
not believe in paternalism In govern
ment. As U parties, I have never vot
ed any other than the Republican tick
et, exoept onoe, and that was In ISM,
when I voted for O rover Cleveland. I
voted for Harrison tn 1892. and, of
oourse. for McKinley In lf'H. The plat
form uf tlr-d last itepulbk an national
convention embodies my pr-sent -leu
as applied to the political Issues Ui.-n i
and now before the country. I'nd.'rj
the constitution, revenue can not be j
raised by direct taxation. We ar? obllg-1
ed, therefore, to resc.rt to indirect taxa-j
lion, and no form of indirect taxatl n
is leas tourdenssne or more practical i
than th- imixasition of duties on foreign
lmiorts. Thw taxation should be so or
dered, however, as not to footer, mo
nopolies, bred trus, or favor the few ,
at the expense of the many. I do not
know how I can express my ideas mure
clearly than by saying that I believe
in the raising of revenue by customs
dutlis. ! levied as to promote the "en
era3 welfarv by wiualizing the diTei-:nce
btrtween Amerk-an and foreign labor."
Mr. lake's views on the tariff and 'ii
racing of revenue are in exact accord
with those stated by Presldent-ek'Ct
McKinley during the campaign. Th.-re
is nothing n his exfKiition of his opin
ions but will meet with the earnest and
hearty commendation of every Itcptibs
lican. And If he makes as goolrt
head of the 1reiuury as he ha.4 pi 0.1.6
hrmsolf in conducting the vast interests
commit'. rit to his care lii 'Chicago, his
name wilTb linked in hlstnry with that
of Alexander Hamilton, vho held Mill
position, ai: C3ta.bliahed oil' a sound
basis thi finances cf the Infant republl".
In proportion as our oares are em
poly ed upon the future they are ab
stracted fnan the present, from the
only time which we can call our own.
and of which, if we neglect the appa
rent duties to make provision against
visionary attacks, we shall certainly
counteract our own purpose. Dr. JiVhn-son.
