In science and philosophy we reason
from cause to effect, but a certain school
of modern politicians reason from effect to
cause. Namely : Effect, a quarter of a
century of marvelous growth and devel
opment. Cause.the tariff.because it is true
beyond question that the marvelous growth
and the development and the tariff were
coexistent. Effect, the cheapest steel and
iron the world ever knew ; steel is being
manufactured cheaper than iron ever was.
Cause.the tariff.because the cheap iron and
steel and the tariff are coexistent. Effccl,
more miles of railroad building in the last
twenty-five years than in all previous his
tory. Cause, the tariff.because the exces
sive building of railroads and the tariff
were coexistent. Effect, ten story build
ings. Cause, the tariff, because undei a
low tariff ten-story buildings were un
known. Effect, silos. Cause, a very high
tariff, for we never had silos ur.der other
than a very high tariff. Effect,twenty-five
pounds of butter from a single cow in one
week. Cause, the tariff, because we never
got so much butter from a single cow in
the time named until after the adoption of
our present tariff system.
But we might go on ad infinitum. This
style of reasoning is now very fashionable,
will become a veritable rage during the
late summer and early fall. Many will
catch it, but in most instances the attacks
will be harmless. Those who take it hard
will be ashamed of it after election. We
want to warn our readers against such rea
soning as we warn thcin against all other
frauds. farm. Stock and Home.
W1IKN TAXATION ROUS.
The protection organs think it very
smart to reiterate the saying that Ihe dem
ocrats consider a 47 per cent tariff to be
"robbery," and yet propose to retain a 42
per cent tariff.
There is nothing inconsistent In this.The
democratic position is that all unnecessary
taxation Is robbery and all unnecessary
protection an injury. If a tax rate ot five
mills is sufficient to meet all the expenses
of this city, would not the local Govern
ment be guilty of a gross perversion of its
powers if it should levy a tax of seven mills
and then either lock up the surplus or set
about devising schemes to spend it ?
That s just what Congress lias been do
ing. For seven years past it has maintain
ed a tax system that has taken from the
people $100,000,000 a year In excess of the
needs of the Government. President
Cleveland is entirely right in saying that
when a representative government does
this "the creature has rebelled against the
creator and the masters are robbed by their
servants."
This robbery must stop.
"The surplus now in the Treasury should
be used in the puschase of bonds,"says Mr.
Harrison.
The Secretary of the Treasury is buying
bonds as fast as they are offered at reason
able rates, only to be accused by Republi
can organs of trying to bull the money
maiket and make times easy for political
effect.
But while the buying of unmatured bonds
is better than hoarding the surplus money
as a temptation to Congressional extrava
gance.it is nevertheless a monstrous in just
ice to tax the people to pay premiums to
bondholders. Eyery dollar of the fund
ed debt would be met at maturity by the
provisions of the sinking fund. And
yet rather than "surrender any part of
their tariff-created boodle the beneficiaries
of this system would heap upon this gen
eration the burden that belongs to another.
Do the taxpayers like it?
The Minneapolis Daily Evening Star and
Suluth Industrial Age announce their in
tention to bolt the republican state ticket.
The Star says : "This paper will support
Mr. Wilson because he and the platform
which he stands upon represent without
equivocation the principles cf tax reduc
tion and tariff reform." The Duluth Age
says : "Contrary to every expressed hope
of the industrial element, the republican
state convention at St. Paul nominated W.
R. Merrlam for Governor. Mr. Merriam
represents everything that is vicious in
politics and opposed to the working classes.
His record should wreck the party which
had the audacity to place him in nomina
tion. TheAfe will support E, M. Wilson."
WHERE TO GO.
An Important Question.
Some will Ma; to the grani old ocean at
