TARIFF REVISION MUST COME.
It is now quite evident that the
standpatters are In control of the Re
publican majority In the present Con
gress and that a revision 9t the tariff
will not be undertaken this year. A
deaf ear Is being turned to the de
mands of the people, who are waking
up to the enormity of the taxation that
Is Imposed upon them for the benefit
of the tariff • protected Industries.
Already the flat has gone forth from
the Republican leaders In Congress
that the tariff must not be disturbed
yet—that the protected Interests and
the moneyed Interests of the country
are not ready for It.
But tariff revision must come. It re
quires but the slightest Inquiry among
the people—the masses of the people
■North, East, South and West—to as
certain that the demand for a ma
terial revision of the tariff Is general.
The demand Is no longer confined to
Democrats, nor to the farmers, nor to
any other class, but it Is becoming so
general that It Is bound to be heard,
either in Congress now or at the next
election for a President
The farmers of the country, and
more especially those In the Middle
West, who have been feeding the pro
tected "infant Industries" for years,
have found out that American manu
facturers sell all kinds of agricultural
Implements In foreign countries muclj
cheaper than they doll to, the home
people, and the rank Injustice of the
thing 1b beginning to arouse them.
They argue that If the American man
ufacture can undersell the manufac
turers of Europe In their pw'n country
they should have nothing to fear from
a reduction of the tariff on torelgk Im
plements. They therefore demand a
revision of the Dlngley tariff as noth-
Ing more than a "square deal,” feeling
that they are entitled to It.
It is notoriously true that the pro
tected Industries of this country—and
there aro so many of them!—have be
come so abnormally profitable, and. at
the expense of the people, that many
of the great corporations are forced
to double up their Btocks In order to
hide the enormous size of their dlvi-,
dends. This • furnishes conclusive’
proof of the fact that th<f consumers
are not getting a “squaro deal.”
There are n few Republican leaders
who aro wlso enough to seo that the
tariff should be—must be—revised, but
they are In the minority, and those
who represent the protected Interests
and the great corporations will not
listen to them.
There aro breakers ahead for the
Republican party In the next election,
Warnings are being sent out. from the
West and from JJew(England. Even I
Massachusetts and Minnesota have |
sounded notes of warning. And In
Massachusetts, the stronghold of Re
publicanism and the protective tariff,
some of the manufacturers themselves
are demanding a revision of the tariff.
The manufacturers of boots and shoes
want the tariff taken off of raw ma
terial. To get free hides they openly
advocate the 'repeal of the tariff on j
boots and shoes, declaring that they
we’d sooner risk the Democratic E*T
ecutive Committee to -save It than let
the Populistic Tom Wataon-BUl Peek-
Hoke Smith alliance get hold of It,
anyhow.

Hoke Smith Is abusing the railroads
In Georgia and howling for Alabama
rates, while another demagogue, Mr.
Comer, Is running for governor of
Alabama ana making his race on the
Georgia rates, using a comparison of
the rates of the two states, claiming
that those of Georgia are from 25 to
50 per cent, less than those of Ala
bama. A press dispatch from Troy
says that merchants, manufacturers
and all classes of business men In a
half hundred or more towns of Ala
bama unhesitatingly state that the
Georgia rates would be quite satisfac
tory to them 1 , reducing their freight
bills by one-half on many commodities.
The Athens Banner well says that

Greer could have emphasized his ar

named as chancellor without writing
an open letter to Justice- Cobb. The
