In his wttaok on the president, Hfdl'd the president for saying that there appeared to he no just complaint of tne taxes on spirits, tobacco and beer. Mr. Kenna proceeded to an elaborate argument in favor of a reduction of the tariff. A bill to reform the revenue system and to reduce taxation would come from the house of representatives and he did not doubt that it would be framed in a Bpirit of conservative fairness to all sections of the country and to nil inter ests. Tho cry of the demagogue that the president and his policy were aiming at ihe lessening of a just reward of labor was as indecent as it was false.

The system of taxation in this country for the last twenty years had been a standing menace and a source of constant injury to the laborer himself. Who would deny that the system which bad prevailed under republican administrations in this country and for years past had made more strikes, driven more men from employment, filled the country with more tramps, aggravated more distress, created more discouteut aud produced more starvation and death than any other system the country ever saw? Was it not time for a change? And yet when the president of the United States, confronting bravely the solemn requirements of his high office, and daring to preserve a high regard for his public reeponsibilities, ventured the suggestion of a remedy which had over over again been presented and demanded by one administration after another, he was assailed by one of the acknowledged leaders of the republican organization as frivolous in his action or bent on the destruction It might as well be understood now as hereafter, that this movement for reform and relief of public burdens in which the president had gallantly and manfully taken the lead, meant practical results. The country was aroused to the justice of its demands. The ranks would be closed. A spirit of fairness and of justice would prevail in all things and both the benefits and the burdens of our system of taxation would be distributed fairly.

That system, both in intent aud extent, would be treated as a whole. The tax on tobacco would, he had no doubt, be reduced, or wholly repealed. Iron and coal and wool and other products of labor and care and enterprise, would not be sacrificed iu the revision. They would stand, as the other industries of the country stood, subject to their fair share in the benefits of whatever the system might he (as revised) and bearing their fair share of the burdens of the common lot.
