MCKINLEY’S BOAST.
MsJor Mcivinley, the ex-Congress-
msn, in one of his recent speeches,
says the New Orleans States,declared
that the tariff would not be changed
for ten years. This statement is no
donbt very reassuring to the fat-fry
ers of the Republican party, but at
the same time it corroborates what
the Democratic press has frequently
charged, and that is, the packing of
the Senate for the purpose of ena
bling the manufacturers to fatten o
the people for a certain period. It
amounts in fact to a confession that
the people are opposed to the tariff,
but they are compelled, owing to the
conspiracy of the Republican party
t» submit to the bleeding process for
at least ten years. The McKinley
bill, in other words, is a victory over
the people, because the Senate has
been so fixed that their appeals for
relief will not be heeded. This
what McKinley thinks as he address
es the plutocrats at their banquets in
the East, and this is what he says,
but he oveilooks one very important
point, and that is the people under
stand the situation as thoroughly as
he does, and that they are getting
ready to impress upon his mind the
fact that they do not intend to be
robbed any more if they can prevent
it, and it looks as though they were
very much in earnest. The boast o!
McKinley that the Republicans will
hold the Senate for ten years is a good
one, but in the present temper of the
people it is a dangerous boast to
make, and we feel quite sure that
the author of the high tax bill will
soon realize that he crowed loudly
beiore be got out of the woods.
Agaio, Mr. Mills strikes a stout
blow to the name of his country’s
Democracy when be says:
We should enlarge, aa far aa we
car, all markets for all products, and
not lock up our agricultural products
while throwing wide'the gates for
the export of manufactures. More
over, in ell things we should deal
frankly with the people. We should
not call a steel rail a bushel of wheat
or a locomotive a barrel of poriL-
The markets of the South would be
valuabid to our manufacturers, and
we ought to do all we can to secure
them; but we should not secure
them for the benefit of monopolies,
bot for the benefit of all our people
The right way to secure tnem is to
produce our goods at leas cost jand to
carry them and offer them for sale.
We can produce them at leas cost by
removing sll taxes from the materials
that are used in making them. This
policy would open the foreign market
for our goods and enlarge the domes
tic market; for onr best market is
the home market, and It is a good or
a bad market just in proportion to
the amount and value of the surplus
that we export.
And this is'lhe whole matter in
nutshell. Discerning men can see
at a glance that the Republican ad
ministration has hit upon this reci
procity scheme simply to beguile the
general public into sympathy wi h
the Republican party. The w?d -
spread opposition to protective tariff
increasing every day with the intol
erable operation of the McKiniy bill,
has driven the Republicans to some
recourse such as this, and Mr. Blaine
is the man who has devised the
method.
But Mr. Blaine’s little game wont
work. He has shown bis hand too
early in the game. Reciprocity such
as the Republicans would have, is s
synonym of rank protection.

MR. MILLS ON RECIPROCITY.
Mr. Blaine is a circumspective, as
tuts and wiry politician. He has a
way of mystifying everything upon
which he lays his sleek fingers so
that the people are.blinded into be
lieving him ao honest hearted states
men, who forsooth, at times would
even forget his party for the people
and the whole people’s good.
Mr. Blaine’s iridescent dream of
reciprocity with which he has charm
ed the weak hearted Democrats of
the North perhaps into the belief
that he Beeks to lay aside rank Re
publican protection to give their
country freer and more wholesome
trade, baa about collapsed at last,
and the grand rascal has been uncov
ered from his mask of dilative reci
procity.
Mr. Mills is the man who did it
We do not see how oven the faintest
hearted Democrat who believes in ‘‘a
tariff for revenue only” can read the
paper on reciprocity by Mr. Mills in
the May number of The Forum,
without seeing the true inwardness
of the administration’s scheme to
condemn it. In that paper Mr. Mills
shows that Mr. Blaine, in his pro-
poied agreement with the South
American countries seeks to place
■' on the free list of exports only those
productions that come from the
ships of the manufacturers. The
farmers’ agricultural products are
not "in it,” to use the common par
lance of the day.
But hearken unto the clinching
testimony of Mr. Mills against Mr,
Blai ne in this case: ~
Our prosperity depends five times
as much upon our exports of agri
cultural products as upon our ex
ports of manufactured products, and
■ the benefit to the farmer of free trade
with the southern countries would
be practicully nothing. It is the in
i’ rust of the protected manufacturer
lh.it points southward. The interest
of the unprotected farmer points
eastward. We must open wider the
markets of the East for our farm
Tns Atlanta Journal talks truth
to-the following tune: The need of
the Southern people, and the demand
now made is for books that do them
justice in the history of onr own
country and the information given
concerning our own section. The
rising generation in the Sonth are
not to be taught that their fathers
were "rebels,” while the revolution
ists of 1776 are glorified. They
should not be taught that the South
ern people were criminals because
they lately owned slaves whose an-
cestors were sold to them by North.,
ern owners or importers. The North,
ern school books, too, are deficient
in information about the geography,
resources and productions-of the
Southern States, fail ng to describe
these as fully aud accurately as they
give similar information about the
Northern States.
Of course the best and truest
school books are those that are want
ed, and that is why a change is called
for.
Hox. J. S. Clark sox in North
American Review:
I defend also the honesty of the poli
tician. I know personally of the gener
osity of the men of politics. Twenty
five years’ participation hr active poli
tics has given me a chance to look in
the lion’s mouth.- I can recall to-day,
looking back over this long stretch of
time, scarcely any men who have made
money in polities. 1 know of no poli
tician who has become rich as a politi
cian. To find those who find fortune
and gear in politics, you must gotothe
corrupt rule of Tammany or some other
large city. I believe that it may be
asserted as true that 99 men out of every
100 spend more money in politics,'and
in public affairs ana for the public
good, than they ever gain in politics or
from any sort of office-holding or profit-
sharing in government.
Yes, it is true that very many men
spend very much money in politics.
Yes, very many. Very much.
