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. X. 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 Mr. John W. Greer, of Waycross, In his open lettor to Justice Andrew J. Cobb, requesting him to decline the office of chancellor of the University of Georgia, was a little previous. Mr. Greer could have emphasized his ar gument In behalf of a teacher being named as chancellor without writing an open letter to Justice- Cobb. The distinguished Justice has not been of fered the place, la not a candidate for It, and may never be offered It. If he ing position to Csdl upon him to decline an office that has not been tendered him.

The Phil adelphia Record says that If the Auto mobile Club of America would Induce its members to refrain from deci mating the population of European vil lages It would do more permanent good than In arranging for their de fense when arraigned for manslaugh ter.. iB elected, the University will have a good chancellor.
