It Is a matter of regret that the pro-
| tectlvs tariff policy, which, during the
1 last forty years, has become part of the
very fiber of the- country. Is not new
accepted M definitely established. Sure
ly wo have a right to My that It his
passed beyond tho domain of theory, and
a right to aspect that not only Its original
advocates, but those who st one time
distrusted It on theoretic grounds, should
now acquiesce in the results that have
been proved over and over sgatn by act
ual experience. These forty odd yaara
have been the most prosperous years this
nation h«* ever seen; more prosperous
years than any other nation haa ever
arm. Beyond question thl* prosperity
could not nave come If the American peo
ple had not possessed the necessary thrift,
energy, and business Intelligence to turn
their vast muterlal resources to account.
But It la no leas true that It Is our eco

S en who, as a class, are steadfast, sin-

the American people and sre more fruit

man on these six million farms receive

promises they made In 1IM end 1900, that
Ts, as possessing no binding force; or
else they would have to embark on a
policy which would be ludicrous at the
moment, and fraught with grave danger
to the nationul honor In toe future.
Our opponent* contend that the gov
ernment Is now administered extrava
gantly. and that whereas there was "a
surplus of $*0,000,000 in 1900” there Is “a
deficit of more than $40,000,000'' in the
year that has Just closed.
The deficit Is Imaginary, and In ob
tained by Including in the ordinary cur
rent expenses the sum of fifty millions,
which was paid for the right-of-way of
the panama canal out of ths accumulated
surplus in the treasury. Comparing the
current or ordinary expenditures for the
two yearn, there was a surplus of nearly
eighty millions for the year 1900. and of
only a little more than eight millions for
the year that ha* Just cloned. Hut this
diminution of the annual surplus was
brought about designedly by the ;ihr41t|on
of the war taxes In the Intervul between
the two dates. The acts of March 2, 1801
and April 12, 1902, cut down the Internal
revenue faxes to an amount estimated
at one hundred and five millions a year.
In other words, the reduction of tnxntton
has t»een considerably greater than tho
reduction In the nnnunT surplus. Since
the close of the war with Spain, there has
been no substantial change In the rate
of annual expenditures. As compared
with the fiscal year ending In June. 1801,
for example, the fiscal year that has
Just closed showed a relatively small In
crease In expenditure (excluding ths ca
nal payment already referred to), while
the year previous showed a relatively
small decrease.
The expenditures of the nation have
been managed In n spirit of economy as
far removed from waste as from niggard-*
linens; and In the future every effort will
l»e continued to secure an economy ss
strict as Is consistent with efficiency. Once
more our opponents have promised what
they cannot or should not perform. The
rrime reason why the expenses of the
government hnvA Increased of recent
years Is to be found In the fact that the
people, after mature thought, have
deemed It wise to have certain new forms
of work for the public undertaken by the
public. Thle necessitates such expendlt-,
urea, for Instance, aa those for rural free
deltvorv or for the Inspection of meats
under the department of agriculture, or
for Irrigation. Hut these new expend
itures nrc necessary; no one would se
riously propose to abandon them: and
yet It la Idle to declaim against the In
creased expense of the government unless
It Is Intended to cut down the very ex
penditures which cause the Increase. The
pensions to the veterans of the Civil War
are demanded by evenr sentiment of re
gard and gratitude. The rura* free de

opponents deny that here at home the

problem of scouring fair treatment to
each man regardless of his rae# or color.
We can do so only If we approach the
problem In the spirit of courage, com

the right, which has enabled Governor
Taft. Governor Wright, and their a*s
dates, to do ao nobis a work In gtvl
