To reconcile differences In tho details comprised in the Used and well-dellned line ot principle will not be the sole task of the conference, lint as It eeiu to me its mem bers will also hitvo Iu churce the Question whether Democratic principles themselves are to bo savo l or abandoned. There is no excuse for mistaking or mUautreheudlii- the feellni: and the temper of the rank and file of the Democraoy. They are downcast under the assertion tnat their party fails In ability to mairtire theuovernnient, and tney are apin-oiiensive mat incir euoris to brin about, tariff reform may fall, but thev are much moie downcast and apprehensive in their fear that Democratic prtuoiples may be surrendered. Iu tuese circumstances tney euiinot do otherwise than to look with confi dence to you and those who with you have patriotically and sincerely championed the cause of tariff reform within Democratic lines and mided bv Democratic principles. This confidence is vastly augmented by the action, under your leadership, of the House of BepreBentatives upon the bill uow pending. Kvery true Demucrat and every sincere tar iff reformer knows that this bill, In its pres ent form and tia it will be submitted to the conference, falls far short of the consummation for which we have lonu labored, for which we have sutfend defeat without dlseouraiiement. which in its anticipation eaTe us u rally Inn cry In our day of tiinmph, and which In its promise 01 accomplishment, is so iiuerwoven with Democratic nledireB and Demo cratic success that our abandonment of the canse or the principles upon which it rests means party penuiy ana party aismmur. One toido will be submitted to the confer ence which embodies Democratic principle so direc.tlv that it cannot be a compromise.. We have iu our plat forms ami iu every way possible declared lu laror 01 iu rree iniponttiion 01 raw materials. We have again and acalci promised that this should h accorded to our people and cur manufacturers as soon as lhe Democratic party was invested with the power to determine the tariff policy of the country. The party has now that power. We are aB certain to-dav as we have ever been of the irreat benefit that would accrue to the country from tho Inauguration o. this rjolicy. and notlilnir has occurred to release us irom our obligation to secure this advantage to our people. It must be admitted that no tariff mea nre can accord with Democratic principles and promises to bear a genuine uemocrauo tiadne that docs not provide for free raw ma terials. In these olrcnnistanc.es it mar well excite our wonder that Democrats are wllllnc to depart from this, the most Democratic of all tariff principles, and that tbe Inconsistent absurdity of such a proposed departure should be emphasized by the suggestion that the wool of the farmer be put on the free liat and the protection of tariff taxation be nlaved around the iron ore and coal of corporations and capitalirtts. How can we face the people after inlulul'ij; in such outrniieous discri ninations and violations of urine D e: It Is aulte lunarent that this question uf free raw materials to. e not dmlt of adjustment on any middle iround, since their subject l n to any rate of ariff taxation, great or small, is alike violative of Democratic m indole and Democratic good ialtn. I hone that von will not consider it intru sive If 1 say somethlug in relation to another suijject wincn can nanny lau to oe irouoiesonio to the conference. I refer to the adjust ment ol latin taxatiou 011 sugar. Under our patty platform and lu accorilunce with our declared party purposes, sugar Is a legitimate and logical article ot revenue taxation. Unfortunately, however, Incidents have accompanied certain stages of the legislation which will be submitted to the conference that have aroused in connection with this subject a natural Democratic animoslty 10 the methods and manipulations of trusts and combinations. 1 confess to elurinj in this feeling; and yet it seems to me we onhf, if possible, to sulncientiy, free curselves from prejudloe to enable us coolly to weigh the considerations wmcn in rormn'ai iiiif tariff legislation ouuht to iruice our trei t inoiit of siiuar as a taxable article. While no tenderness should be entertalutd for trusts, ami while 1 am decidedly oppo-ed to graqting 1 hern, under the guise of taritf taxation, any opportunity to further their peculiar nieihuds, 1 suggest tnat, we ougut uut 10 oe unvcu away irom tne l'cmocrauc principle anu poucv which led to the taxation 01 sugar by tne t sar, unite likely exaggerated, that in carry ing out this principle and policy we mav lncnrcctlv and inordinately eneouri.uo a combination 01 tue ougar lenmug Interests. 1 Know mat lu presint conditions this Is a delloate subject, and 1 appreciate the depth and strength of the feellnj which its treatment has aroused. 1 do not believe we s.K'uld do evil that good may come, but It seems to me that wo shou ii not lorget taut our aim is the completion of the tariff, and In taxitii; sugar for proper purposes and within reasonable bounds, whatever else may be auld of our action, we are in no danger of running L-ouuter to Democratic principles. With all fhere is at stake there must be in the treat-n-eut of this article some ground u,:on which we are all willing to stand, where toleratiou mid conciliation may be allowed to solve the problem without demanding the entire surrender of fixed and conscientious conrictlons. 1 ought t ot to prolong this letter. If what I have written is uuwelcome, I beg you to be lieve in 11 y good Intentions, in tne ccnclusious of tho conference touehing the numer ous items which will be considered, the people arc rot afraid that their interests will be uegiec.ed. lhey know that the general result, ho far as they are concerned, will be tt place home, necessaries i.ud comforts more easily within their teach, and to Insure better and surer compensation to those who toil. We all know that a tailff la wcovorlng all the vailed Interests and couult Ions of a conntry as va.-t a-, ours must of necessity be largely the resul. or Honorable adjustment and compromise. I expect very few of us can say, wiicn our measure is perfected, that all Its feat ures are entirely as we would prefer. You i.nnw how much I deprecated the Incorporation In the proposed bid of the Income-tax feature. In triottrs of this kind, however, which do not violate a fixed and recognized Hemoerutic doctrine, we are willing to defer to the judgment- of a majority of our Democratic brethren. I think thero Is a general agreement that this Is p irty duty. This is more palpably apparent wheu we realize that the business of our country timidly stands and watches for the result of our elforts to perfect tariff legislation: that a iiuick and certain return of prosperity waits upon a wise adjustment, and that a coufloluu people still tmst lu our hands their prosperity and well-being. Tin Democracy of the laud plead moat earnestly for tho epcedy completlon cf the tariff legislation wliiou their representatives have nnderiaken. but ihey demand not less earnestly tlia: no stress of access')' shill tempt those they trust to the abandonment of Democratic principle.

StomachLivep Cure Til Most Astonishing Medical Discovery of the Last One Hundred Years. It is Pleasant to tho Taste as the Sweetest Nectar. It is Safe sxtd Harmless as the Purest Milk. This wonderful Kervino Tonic has only recently been introduced into this country by the proprietors and manufacturers of the Great South American Nervine Tonic, and yet its great value as a curative agent has Ions' been known by a few of the most learned physicians, who have not brought its merits and value to the knowledge of the general public. This medicine has co mpletely solved the problem of the cure of indigestion, dyspepsia, and diseases of the general nervous system. It is also of the greatest value in the cure of all forms of failing health from whatever cause. It performs this by tho great nervine tonic qualities which it possesses, and by its gT"t curative powers upon the digestive organs, the stomach, tho liver and the bowels. No remedy compares with this wonderfully valuable Nervine Tonic as a builder and strengthener of the life forces of the human body, and as a great renewer of a broken-down constitution. It is also of more real permanent value in the treatment and cure of diseases of the lungs than any consumption remedy ever used o:a this continent. It is a marvelous cure for nervousness of females of all ages. Ladies who are approaching the critical period known as chf.nge in life, should not fail to use this great Nervine Tonic, almost constantly, for the space of two or three years. It will carry them safely over th danger. This great strengthener and curative is of inestimable value to the aged and infirm, because its great energizing properties will give them a new hold on life. It will add tea or fifteen year.-i to the lives of many of those who will use a half dozen bottles of the remedy each year.

All th'ese and many other complaints cured by this wonderful Nervine Tonic. NEBYOUS DISEASES. As a cure for every cv.ass of Nervous Diseases, no remedy has been able to compare with the Nervine Tonic, which is very pleasant and harmless in all its effects upon the youngest child or the oldest and most delicate individual. Nine-tenths of all the ailments to which the human family is heir are dependent on nervous exhaustion and impaired digestion. When there is an insufficient supply of nerve food in the blood, a general state of debility of the brain, spinal marrow, and nerves is the result. Starved nerves, like starved muscles, become strong when the right kind of food iu supplied; and a thousand weaknesses and ailments disappear as the nerves recover. As the nervous system must supply all tho power by which the vital forces of the body are carried on, it is the firBt to suffer for want of perfect nutrition. Ordinary food does not contain a sufficient quantity of the kind of nutriment necessary to repair the wear our present mode of living and labor imposes upon the nerves. For this reason it becomes necessary that a nerve food be supplied. This South American Nervine has been found by analysis to contain the essential elements out of which nerve tissue is formed. This accounts for its universal adaptability to the cure of all forms of nervous de-raneemeut.
