Tariff the Main Issue.

ID a recent interview upon the issues of 1892, Senator John G. Carlisle says: “I have ha hesitation in saying that the Democracy should keep the tariff to the front It is the great issue of the day and on It the fight shou'd be made. Upon it the party is united and can make a confident and aggressive battle. “The party Is not united on the free coinage of silvor, and it woald be suicidal to advance that issue to a position of equal importance with the tariff; but

this will not, in my opinion, be done. Nothing can get in front of the other Issue; the cause of revenue reform wl 1 still be the paramount question, even with free coinage. If the drain on the people produced ty high prices is continued, how are they benefited? Their money will still be wrung from them through custom house exactions.”
