character and importance: The I’rewldcut'* Letter. Executive Mansion. Washington, Aug £7. Hon. T. C. Catch lugs My Dear Mr: Since the conversation 1 had with you and Mr. Clark, of Alabama, a few days ago In regard to my action upon the tariff bill now before me 1 have given the subject further and most serious consideration. The result Is, 1 am more settled than ever in the determination to allow tho bill to become a law without my signa-

ture.

When the formulation of legislation which it was hoped would embody democratic ideas of tariff reform was lately entered upon by this congress nothing was further from my anticipation than a result which I could not promptly and enthusiastically indorse. It W therefore with a feeling of the utmost disappointment that I submit to a denial of this privilege Hint* at Trust Influence*. "I do not claim to be better than the masrtes of my party nor do 1 wish to avoid any responsibility which on account of tho passage of this law I ought to bear as a member of the democratic organization; neither will 1 permit myself to be separated from my party to such an extent as might be Implied by my veto of tariff legislation, which, though disappointing, is still chargeable to democratic effort. Hut there arc provisions in this bill which are not in line with honest tariff reform and it contains inconsistencies and crudities which ought not to appear in tariff laws or laws of any kind. Besides, there were, as you and I well know. Incidents accompanying the passage of the bill through congress which xandn every sincere refortner unhappy, while influences surrounded it in its latter stages and interfered with Its final construction which ought not to be recognized or to lor a tod In democratic tariff reform councils. Letter Than the McKinley Law. “And yet, notwithstanding all its vicissitudes uml all the bad treatment it> has received at the hands of Its pretended friends, it presents a vast improvement to existing conditions. It will certainly lighten many tariff burdens that notv rest heavily upon the people. It Is not only a barrier against the return of mad protection, but It furnishes a vantage ground iroui which must be waged further aggressive operations against protected monopoly and governmental favoritism. “1 take my place w ith tho rank and file of the democratic party who believe in tariff reform and who kn<m what it is. *ho refuse to accept the results embodied in the bill at the close of the wa*. who are not blinded to the fact that the livery of democratic tariff reform has t>een stolen and worn in the service of republican protection, and who have marked the places where the deadly blight of treason has blasted the councils of the brave in their hour of might. “The Coiiiniunlrtin of Tho trusts and combinations—the com-' muntsm of pelf, whose machinations have prevented us from reaching the success we deserve. should not be forgotten or forgiven. We shall recover from our astonishment at their exhibition of power, and if then the question is foro€fd upon us whether they shall submit to the free legislative will of the people's representatives, or shall dictate the laws which the people must obey, we will accept and sett*e that issue as one involving the integrity and safety of American institutions. ••i love the principles true democracy because they are founded In pailotlsm and upon just ice and fairness toward all interests. I am proud of my party organization because it Is conservatively sturdy and persistent in the enforcement of its principles. Therefore. I do not despair of the efforts made by the house of representatives to supplement the bill already passed by turther legislation and to have engrafted upon it such modifications as will more nearly meet democratic hopes and aspiration*. Want* Tree < oal anil Iron Ore. “I can’t be mistaken as to the necessity of free raw materials as the foundation of logical and sensible tariff reform. The extent to which this is recognized in tho legislation already secured 1.* one of its encouraging and redeeming features, but It is vexatious to recall that while free coal and iron ore have been denied a loiter of the secretary of the treasury dLscloses the fact that boUi might have been made free by the annual surrender of only f700,0,H) of unnecessary revenue. "I am sure that there is a common habit of underestimating the importance of free raw materials In tariff legislation, and of regarding them ns only related to concessions to bo made to our manufacturers. The truth i«. their influence is so far-reaching that if disregarded a complete and beneficent scheme of tariff reform cannot be successfully Inaugu-

rated.

When we give to our manufacOurers free raw materials we unshackle American enterprise and ingenuity, and these will open tjio doors of foreign markets to the reception of our wares and give opportunity for the continuous and remunerative employment of American lube.. ' “With materia)* cheapened by their freedom from tariff charges, the cost of their product must be correspondingly cheapened. Thereupon justice and fairness to the consumer would demand that the manufacturers be obliged to submit to such a readjustment and modification of the tariff upon their finished goods as would secure to the people the benefit of the reduced cost of their manufactures and shield the consumer against tho exactions of inordinate profits. Tariff Question Not Settled. “It will thus be seen that free raw materials and a just and fearless regulation and reduction of the tariff to meet the changed conditions would carry to every humble home In the land the blessings of increased comfort and cheaper living. The million.' of our countrymen who have fought bravely and well for tariff reform should be exhorted to continue tho struggle boldly challenging to open warfare and constantly guarding against treachery and hulfbeartcdnoHs in their camp. Tariff reform will not bo settled until it is honestly and fairly honied in the interest and to the benefit of patient and long-suffering people. Yours very truly, “Gbovkr Cleveland. A Long Struggle. ITho placing of the bill upon the •statute book* ended one of the longest and most remarkable struggles in the parliamen tury history of the government. It Tva* practically ayco* ago that the compilation oj th« new tariff was commenced. The extraordinary session of congress was called August 7. 1893, for the purpose of repealing th« .Sherman silver-purchasing law. Two week later the wavs and means committee of thi house with Mr. Wilson, of West Virginia, chairman, was appointed, and almost iinmr cliulely the work of framing the democn.U

The report of the supreme chancellor, W. \V. ISlackwell, deals with questions rising’ from what he terms an organized rebellion of certain persons who have persisted in publishing’ and using a German translation of the ritual of the order despite the refusal of the supreme lodge to permit such translations. The supreme chancellor makes a stronL r plea for Americanizing’ the order. He gives the following as the statistics of membership of the order according to unofficial reports to July X, 1894: Grand lodges, 54; subordinate lodges, 6,202; total number of members, 465,741, a net increase of 72,025 members during the last two years. The financial condition of the order is, he states, most satisfactory, notwithstanding the failure of the former supreme master of

exchequer.

The saloon question is not unnoticed. Many lodges, the report says, have under act of grand lodges permitting a vote on the subject excluded saloonkeepers from membership in the order. This, the chancellor thinks, is a grand thing, as it will have a tendency to elevate the character of the lodges. He holds that quality, not quantity, is what is wanted. He says: "I heartily commend that saloon keepers, bartenders and professional gamblers be pronounced ineligible to further membership in our order and that the supremo lodge firmly plaut Itself upon this moral and pregreRsiVe platform, tlmt all the world may know just where we stand." The report of Supreme Master of Exchequer Thomas fl. Sample shows total receipts during the,year of SOI,108.86, with expenditures of $62,040.31, le.av ing a balance April 1, 1S94, of $29,-
