DEFENSE OF PHOTECTIOX. Democrats Mast Not Be atvca Power to Enforce Their Views The democratic platform prom 1ms a repeal of the tariff law containing this provision anil es pecially denounces as a "sham reciprocity" that section of the law under which these trade ar rangements base been made. If no other Issue were Insulted In the campaign, this alon* would gise It momentous Importance. Aro the farm ers of the great grain growing statue willing to surrender these now, large and increasing mar kets for their surplus! Are we to base nothing In ssccantre for the free Importation of sugar and coffee, and at the same tlmo destroy the sugar planters of the south and the beet sugar Industry of the northwest and of the Pacific coast, or are we to have the tnxed sugar an I coffee which a "tariff for revenue" only necessarily Involves, with the ndded loss of the ns\s markets which base been opened! As I have shown, our commercial rolatlou* in Europe do not regard this reciprocity policy as a "sham." but as a serious tbresl to a trade aupreinacy they have long enjoyed. They would rejoice and. If prudence did not restralu, would Illuminate their depressed manufacturing cities, over the news that Uncle Ham had atiandoued his system of protection and reciprocity. They see very clearly that a restriction of American production and trade and a corresponding Increase of European production and it ado would follow. And 1 will not believe that what is so plain to them can be hidden from our own people. TurllTaml Wages and Capital. The declaration of the republican platform In favor of "The American Doctrine of Protection" meets my most hearty approval. Tha convention did not adopt a echedule, buta principle that Is to control all the tariff schedules. There may ho differences of upmlou among protectionists as to tha rate upon particular articles necessary to effect an equalisation between wages abroad and at home. In some not remote campaigns the Issue has been, or, more correctly, has been made to appear to be. between a high and a low 1 protective tariff, both |»rtlet expressing some solicitous regard for the wages of our working people and for the prosperity of our domestfo industries. But under a more courageous leader ship tha democratic party has now practically declared that. If given power. It will enact a tariff law without any regard to Its effect upon wages or upon the capita) invested In our great industries. The malorlty report of the com mittee on platform at the democratic national convention at Chicago contained this clause. "That when custom house taxatiou la levied upon articles of any klud produced in this country, tha difference between tha cost of labor here and abroad, when such a difference exists, fully measures any possibly benefits to tha laborer, and the enormous a tdltlonal Impo sition of the existing tariff falls with crushing force upon our farmers and workingmen." Here wa have a distinct admission of the re publican contention that Amerlcau workingmen are advantaged by a tariff rate equal to the dif ference between home aud foreign wages, and a declaration only agalns, the alleged "additional impositions" of the existing tariff law. j Democratic TurlfT Doolaratlons. ' .. *Kaln' *■>*• majority report further declared: But. in making a reduction la taxes. It Is not proposed to Injure any domestic Industries, but , rather to prdtuotr their healthy growth. More over. many Industries have come to rely U|k>o legislation for successful continuance, so that nny change of low must be at every step regard ful of I he labor and oapltal thus involved." i w® baTts an t'.iinliwion that mmv of nor t Industries depend upon protective duties for their successful continuance, and a declaration I that tariff changes should be regardful of the I workmen lu such industries aud of the invested capital. | The overwhelming rejection of these proposi tions. which had before received the aanctioa of i democratic national conventions, was not more i Indicative of the new and more courageous lead I ership to which the party has now committed it self than tha substitute which was adopted.

We may not only hope for, but expect highly beneficial results from this conference, now soon to assemble. When the result of tbe conference is known we then shall be able intel ligently to adjust our financial basis to any new conditions. j FltEE BALLOT AND HONEST COUNT. Political Jugglery Demonstrates the Need of New Laws. In ray lost annual message to congress I said and I must yet entertain the idea that it U possi ble to secure a calm, patriotic consideration of constitutional or statutory changes, as may be necessary, to secure the choice of the officers of the goverment Ur the people by fair apportionments and free elections. I belleye it would be possible to constitute a commission. Don-partisan in its membership and composed of patriotic, wise and Impartial men, to whom the consideration of the questious of the evils connected with our election system and methods might tie committed with a good prospect of securing unanimity in some plan for removing or mitigating those evils. The con stitution would permit the selection of a com mission to be vested in the supreme court if that method would give the best guaranty of impar tiality. This comniitteo should be charged with the duty of Inquiring into the whole subject of the law of elections as related to the choice of the of ficers of the national government, with a view to securing to every elector a free and unmolested esercise of the suffrage and as near an approach to equality of value In each ballot cast as is at tainable. The demand that the limita tions of suffrage shall be found in the law and there only. Is a just demand, and no just man should resent or resist It. It seemed to me that an appeal to our people to consider the question of readjusting our legislation on abso lutely fair and impartial lines might find some effective response. Equal Representation Necessary. Many times I have had occasion to say that JawA and election methods designated to eive unfair advantages to the party making them wou.d some time be used to perpetuate in power a faction or a party against the will of the majority of people. Of this !*•. se4,,n* a. to , havo an illustration in the recent Btate election In Alabama. There was no republican ticket in the field. The cen test was between woite democrats. The Kolb party say they were refused the representation guaranteed by law upon the election boatds, and that when the courts by mandamus attempted to right this wrong an appeal wa* taken that could not be heard until after the election made the write ineffectual. Ba lot boxes were thrown out fnt every man found to be qualified under the laws shall bo made secure in the right to cast a free ballot and to have that ballot honestly counted cannot be abridged Our old republican battle cry,"A free ballot and'a fair count, comes back to us.not only from Alabama, but from other states and from men who,differing with us widely in opinion, have coins to s.*» that parties and political debate are but a mockery if when the debate is ended, the judgment of bon eat majorities is to be reversed by ballot box frauds and tally sheet manipulation In the inter Mt of the party or party faction in power. Unfair Apportionments. Those new political movements in the states and the recent decisions of some of the state courts agaiust unfair apportionment laws en courage the hope that the arbitr.™ and partisan election laws and practices which ‘YTa ,e‘i Inay, bB corrected by the thi9Jfws ,mide e*l',al »nd bqn-rartisaa and the elections free and honest.
