Heal issues, mal a decision reached which will bo rallier the v.oct! ul the American peuple on a national question than n choice bet ween candidates. lt is evident ilia! .someone has blundered. Fi thor the Republicans ure right in lu lo v ing that the power of corporation, --railroads, ami manufactures--is paramount,or clso tho Democrats aro right ill believing that tho great mass of votors demand that their burdens be lightened and that they be protected from the monopolists. This is it light for protection.-Thu Many vs, The Few. Tho .situa tion lins bOCtl tersely put as hal lows : "A turill' for protection, with in cidental revenue," as McKinley, of Ohio, tho writer of tho Republican tariff plank, lia?; often put it, is tho Republ lean tari iv. A ta Iff for revenue, with inci dental i>. itection, is tho Demoern ground, as practically laid down in the Mills bill and in tho Cleveland message. A high tariff und low wages is tho Republican offer; free raw mu terialsnnd high wages is tho Dem ocratic oifor. President W. ?VI, McCnsInn.
