THE DAILY DEMOCRAT. liONE WKOMi AGAIN'. The MouHlaimrr I a very reliable papur except Alien dealing with the tariff. It say : "Democratic editors liave all theii spare time taken up now in writing articles de nunciatory oi the McKinley tariff bill, and do this to'the best of their ability. Before any tariff bill was introduced, they were anxious that the republicans shoul J redeem t'.ieir promises to the people, and now they seem to be very much chagrined because they have. The democratic papers have not been anxious that the republicans should re deem their pledcj to the people, because these pledges were made in the interests qf monopolies and trusts. They pledeJ themselves to the people that before they would sin render any part of the protective system (dial is reduce the tariff on the necessaries of life,) they would take all the tax off w hiskey and tobacco, and of couitc democrat ould oppose such a mor.opolis tic scheme is this. But they do not re deem their pledges lit ths McKinley bill for they pet sugar on the free list and this surrenders much of the protective system But they have no scruples on that fcore as sugar is the product of a people w ho have no righ:s which republican leaders are bound to re-pect. The Mointttu'ncer knows full well that the "cKinley bill is purelv monopolistic, partisan, and section al. The men who would put sugar on the free ti.-. and double the already hih duty on tii. are not entitled to be credited with beir-.g either intelligent or di-posed to be fair as between man and man. We have no doubt the scorclting criticisms to which tlie McKinley bill is bein subjected, dis turbs our coletnporary very much. We are not surprised thereat. They are made to disturb the publx mind and arouse men everywhere to the huge burdens that are to be heaped upon th"ir shoulders if the McKinley bill shall pass. Let not the Mountaineer for a moment console itself with the thought that the passage of the McKinley bill would settle the tariff ques tion. On the contrary it would only in. tensify the issue. No, that question will never be settled until it is settled right settled in the interests of the masses in tead of the classes. It will tak the dem ocratic party to do that. FOKCF. AND T1IK CONSTITITION. r AVhen believers in elections by force ins'cad of by ballot undertake to controvert the World's asser'ion that the Reed Lodge Hill is "fla grantly defiant of the spirit of the Constitution'' they succeed only in betraying a lamentable Ignorance of American history. Section 4, article I, the c'ause upon which they hang their case, reads: The times, places and manner of holding elections for Senators and Representatives shall be prescribed in each State by the Legis 3 iture thereof; hut the Congress may, at any time, by law, makeor titer such regulations, except as to the places of choof ing Senators. Interpreters, like doctors, seldom agree, ar.d it is quite possible that two thoroughly honest minds, in trying to construe this passage liter ally, might give it whollv distinct meanings It is clear, however, that the authority vested in the Slates is originally and primary, while thil vestc 1 in the Congress is only permissive aid contingent. The question then athes": Under what con ditions is the interference of Congress warrant ed? Whatever may be the wilful impressions of statesmen of to-day,there w as no misumler llamling on the part of the fathers of the Re public. The delegates to the Constitutional Convention from Massachusetts, New Hamp shire, Virginia, North Ca'o'.ina and several other States refused to ratify this section until its meaning was made perfectly clear. This w as done in the discussion which followed and the conditions were declared over again to be 0 tly two in number and as follows: I. Where the States refuse to provide the necessary machinery fur election; and, 2, Where they are unable to do so for any cause, rebellion, etc, That such was the distinct understanding is ihown still further by the language h which New York ratified the Constitution: "In full confidence that the Congress will not make or alter any regulations in this State re specting the times, manner and places of hold -ing elections fur Ssnators or Representatives, unless the Legislature of this State shall neglect or refuse to make laws or regulations for the purpose.or from any circumstance be incapable of making the same, and that iu those cases such power will duly be exercised until the Legislature of this State shall make provision in the premises." How any honest man, familiar wilh these historical facts, can declare that the Force Hill dc-s l ot defy the spirit of the Constitution and keep a straight face while sj declaring simply passes understanding. New York World. The Democrat would suggcl as a means to satisfy the people of Salco and Portland on the census question that tht matter be turned over to speaker Reed who, so far, is he most successful counter of persons in the countr,. He, alone, of all others, can count a man as well, where he is not.as where he is, Oh, he would tie a daisy census enumerator.
