Sltttlij democrat
LOOK AT THE FKil KtS.
There were two important changes in
the usual proceeding! during the closing
hours of the Fifty-first congress. No
unanimous vote of thanks was allowed to
be recorded to the retiring speaker, and no
estimate was given by the chairmen rf the
proper committees of the totals of the ap
propriation bills. The first was caused by
the universal disgust created by the rulings
of Tom Reed and by his repeated resort to
direct falsehood to enable his party to
override publi3 sentiment. The second
was due to the unwillingness of partisans
equally as careless of honor to reveal at
once the full measure of their profligacy.
There was gall enough In the cup of Mr
Cannon and bitterness sufficient In the fii
ture of Mr Allison to make both these
statesmen seek to hide the consequences
of a degree of partisanship never dreamed
of by those patriots who saw in this tend
ency greatest dangers to the nation.
But these be spots that will not .out at
the demand of republican conspirators.
One thousand million dollars is the sum
named as the cost'to the people of a re
publican congress. This is the amount to
be raised by taxation from a people who
were promised that their prosperity was
assured by the return to power of a party
pledged to a reduction of their burdens. It
1 (or this Tom Reed has counted quorums
of members not within the municipal limits
of the capitol. It was for this democrats
were ousted from seats to which they had
been elected. For this the precedents ofa
century have been overthrown. To the
picture thus presented the people w ill give
due heed. They will see no hope of better
times in outrageously swollen tax lists.
tight dollars per capita is to be drawn
from the people as the lesult of Reedism.
Not to be drawn from rich and poor alike.
Monopoly is to profit by tribute levied un
dei the false plea of protection. Labor Is
to be burdened that petted manufacturers
may .amass other millions to be drawn up
on for the next campaign of fraud.
Turning to the details of this steal the
people will find no redeemable feature.
They aie not to be taxed to reduce their
bonded debt. They ire not to pay now
that future payments may be lessened.
The pension list is mounting to alarming
figures after a generation has passed since
the war closed. The last of the great gen
erals passes to his grav e, but the army of
pensioners grows apace. There will be
soon no high officers to review the ranks of
pension heroes marshaled in their raids on
the treasury by the Tanners,Clarksons. and
Dudleys. Sixty millions Is the apparent
increase between two congresses, but the
proper statement of the account when the
defici shall be known will pass the
hundred million mark. Meantime the
surplus has disappeared, and the incoming
congress will be forced to the consideration
of a dericit in revenues swollen to nearly
$500,000,000 a year. Party organs which
rang the changes on a cry that the surplus
would dlsippear under a democratic ad
ministration are dumb'in face of the fact
that their party has offered the people
prospect of increased debt and higher tax
ation. Republican policy has been demon.
strated to be for a reduction of revenu
and Increase of taxation. It will be for
the democrats In the next congress
demonstrate the possibility of increased
revenue through decreased taxation
There will be no shirking of the issue thu
framed. The party claiming to stand for
honest money and casting its votes for
fiatlst will not marshal the hosts that must
make return to honesty and frugality I
administration a pressing question. The
republicans have deceived the people. Let
democrats take up their canse and reform
will follow. The Chicago Times.
The Salem Jrmtl,in a sound moment ,says
"lothe rather of Lies with misrepresentation:
and prejudices for partisan purposes." ,
devoutly trust that this new-born zeal for the
truth on the part of our cotemporary may
ripen into a permanent characteristic of that
paper.
The reported likeness of Mr McKlnlcy
to the great soldier-statesman of France'
days of glory is more than a physical re
semblance. History records the fact that
the exile of St. Helena continued to the end
to nurse the delusion of the return of his
"star of destiny." If the Ohio itatcsmnn
has not yet read the verdict of the Anieri
can people upon his method of bulMlngup
a plutocracy by high taxation he may well
be left to cherish his delusion In political
exile. The star of McKinleylsm has set
never to rise ayain.
Most of the democratic papers of the
state approved Governor Pennover's veto
of the wagon road bills because they be
lieve they weie cleirly constitutional
But it is not true, as stated by an exchangt
that they all endorse his views on the
World's Fair matter. A majority of them
favored an appoprlation.
It is rumored that our foxy Secretary of
State, Mr Blaine, Is to be sued for S 1,000,-
000 by the widow of the late Gen. Barrun-
dia. Mrs Parrundia evidently believes in
reciprocity. She says: "You take my
husband therefore you pay me Si.coo,-
