A very large democratic meeting was held IN
New York City On the night Of the 3oth Octo-
ber at which Resolutions were passed approving
the administration Of President Potk7-expresslng
suspicion and alarm at the interference OF Euro
pean powers with affairs on this continent-sug-
gesting the importance of giving notice at the
next Congress to Great Britain in FsIaton to Ore
gon-den1andihg separation Of Government from
the Banks, and the re-estabIishment of the Inde-
pendent Treasury-and taking such sound view
of the Tariff. question that we quote the Resolu'
ton entire: >. D - s 3 = Il 3 . s> 8


Resolved, That we demand modification Of
the Tariff Of 1912 and in regulating tariff we re-
cognize but one principle-the collection of snffi-
cient revenue to pay the expenses of an economT'
cal administration ofthe government that we are
opposed to nonopolies of all kinds, and amongst
the rest to the tariff monopoly, which enriches the
manufacturing Interests at the expense OF the COM
mercial and agricultural interests; that the great
mass of consumers are compelled, under the pres
ent system, to pay heavy taxes to fill the pockets
of rich capalsts-and that equal and exact JUS
tice demands no Legislation should be had to pro-
tect one class whilst it robs another; that in our
opinion, tariff properly arranged, should impose
the lowest rate of duty on articles of foreign inn
port that will raise the required amount of reVc-
nue." - - ..--..-


This is the true doctrine, and all we need to en-
sure its triumph is energy and union among the
democrats.
