Protection and Wagn.
Daily Oregoninn Aug. 21, 1883.
Thu census of 1881) is full of excellent
reasons why tariff revision iu this country
should be both immediate aud peruiaueut.
Of course it docs not discuss the question,
but it collects and presents facts which with
the relations curry their Icmoiis to all who
ill study tliein. Among the false claims of
protection whsch it explodes is the pretense
that our almost prohibitory tariff makes work
enty and keeps wages nigu. Hardly any
iriual auswer is needed to that assertion.
.'he aiitiiguiilHtic relations of labor and capi
tal in those sectioLA whose industries are
most strongly protected would be a sufficient
ply; but too ceusus report makes a more
aborate one though in the same direction.
The man w hom the government commission-
id to make a report ou the irou and steel in
Instry is Bcrreiury of the American Iron and
Steel Association, and not likely to furnish
figures that tell agaiust the protection
tli.ory, simply with that end in view. Iron
aud steel are the most heavily protected of all
articles in common use. In lnsU there were
805 companies engaged in producing irou
ore, and they produced 7,971,703 tous, em-
ploying to do the work o 1,008 persons at a
daily cost of f 31,71)1, a few cents over 11
per day for each persou, which is less than
tlie average of workers iu any unprotected
business iu the country The total number
employed in the production of pig and bar
iron and steel was 110,1)75, who received
$181,1123 a day, or 1.70 each, thoir service
coming more under the head of skilled labor
than that of miners. This is certainly a
neCL'arniv nil ance lor skilled labor, and
something that is without a parallel iu less
protected industries of the country,
lue free .trade League of New York bas
issued pamphlet which dealt in a forcible
maimer with the infant industry plan. In
this connection it says: "In the first place,
our infant industries are a couturv old. In
the second, the complier of these statistics
acknowledges that our superior skill places
me worm at a disadvantage with us. Third
ly, our irou oie and coal are oonerally situ
ated so close together that the former can
easily be worked with the latter. Fourthly.
wnne tne iron and coal of Europe are far
down below the surfaoe, ours are almost
upon it. Fifthly, our iron and coal supplies
are iu close proximity to the market. Sixth
ly, they are adjacent to the crcat food-pro
ducing center of the United States, which is
relied upon to supply half the food eaten by
the iron-workers of Europe. Therefore,
without any protection at all, it is shown our
iroin masters oould afford to pay one nun'
dred per cent, more wages to their workmen
llian tnev no heford forpirm eoionetihnn
would effect thorn. But the protectionists
do not care for demonstrations. When the
next presidential campaign comes on they
will have their threats to worktutmien post
ed up in their furnaces, factories and mills,
just aa tbey did iu 1880. and not until tbe
people who laboi turn their thinking to
some account, stop striking and redress their
grievances by voting, will they make a pobi
tive advance toward independence and better
circumsiancos.

One of the great natural resources of tbe

sixteen years say they the never saw a bliz

Iu a book recently published, edited by
Mrs. Hancock occurs the following con
cerning the part the dead hero played in bis
campaign- for tho Presidency:
I he campaign followed, aud iu nowise
differed from others, Our home was in
vaded from the beginning to tho end. All
was turmoil, excitement and discomfit of
every kind. The conclusion was eagerly
ibhod tor, by none more so than lien, Han
cock himself. The ordeal to him was se-
ere, requiring herculean strength the entire
campaign. Indeed, be was neverjufterwards
so robust iu health.
At 7 o'clock oil the day of the election, he
yielded to tke extreme weariness and pros
tration that ensued from his five months'
labors and went to bed, begging me under
no circumstances to disturb nun, as tne re
sult would be known soouer or later, aud to
morrow wonld be time enough. At S o'clock
the following morning he immired of me for
the news: I replied: "It lias been a com
plete Waterloo to you." "That is all light"
said he, I can stand it," aud in another
minute he was again asUep. An extraordi
narily bulauced temperament, it then oc
curred to mo as often as before; one that
as uevcr comprehended by his superiors,
or, iudeed, by those who were the nearest to
bun. The only disappointment that be gave
expression to was the difference that bis de
tent would make in tbe future of many of
his friends, who had suffered long and in
various ways in consequence of their ad
herence to his cause, lie accented, howev
er, the situation as a soldier, uot as a politi-

that was observed and reported by active,
disinterested friends on tbe part of some of
those in charga of tne campaign, and the in
action of many of the protended leaders, who
manifested their discontent by indifference
throughout the camduign. With all this, in
cluding the successful attempt to amalga
mate ucseis, wuicn were in awn oy Hun
dreds who have siuce testified to . the fact,
from Tammany boxes, bis popularity and
strtngth before tbe people could not be con
coaled, for the successful candidate received
a plurality of only 7018 out of a popular vote
of 9,000,000.
Pixlry on Hie Tariff. .
Frank M. Pixley in the current number of
the Argonaut speaks for many of the people
on the Paciflo ooast, as follows:
The lumber mill owners of Oregon and
Washington Territory, the lumber dealers of
San Franoisco the men who have monopo
lized forests, and cornered the retail trade;
who have, by a conspiracy as unluwful as it
is immoral, placed themselves in position to
plunder every farmer who would build a
house, barn or fence, evory inhabitant of
city or village who would erect for himself a
home, and every mechanic who would make
a box, and every fmit grower who would use
oue have united in a petition to Congress
praying that this infant conspiracy be not
throttled by removing the tax of two dollars
per thousand fuet on lumber. This lumber
conspiracy imposes an unnecessary tax of
from four to eight dollars per thousand upon
lumber sold in California, aud in tne pres.
ence of tbe inexhaustible forests ia British
Columbia and of perishing forests in Cali
fornia, we see no very good reason why Con
gress should aid these male factors in lumber
to the extent or a two-uoiiars per-tnousanu-foot
tariff. Porhaps this kind of legislation
may protect Maine and Michigan, but it is a
wrouc to consumers of lumber in California;
and as there are about one bnudred consum
ers to one produoer, we should be glad if we
had free trade in this article. The same
opiuien is entertained by us in rsferenae to
coal and irolw We look upon sheep as a
public enemy, and would be glad to see every
one uot properly herded, in an enclosed
Held that belongs to their owner manufac
tured into immediate tnuttoa. They do more
damage to our forestry, and in scattering
noxious weeds over our plain ana vauey,
than they ars worth. There are two sides to
this tariff controversy, and it is only one side
that is being heard by petition, and that is
the one that is nnited in some manufactur
ing industry to extort mousy from a dis
united and inharmonious consuming constit
uency by excessive and burdensome taxation
to protect and encourage what they style
their "infont" enterprise. We think it is
about time that the American manufacturer
should stop pleading the baby act, and stop
invoking government protection for "infant '
industries and take his chances with a tariff
that is for revenue. There should be no
special laws for anybody that do not con
tribute JothegMieralgood.
Ios fob tub O. & C The construction of
a lurgs ice house for tbe O. & C. 11. It. at
Ashland was begun this week. It is located
between the tracts north of the present
depot building, aud will be large enough to
hold a great quantity of ice. As soon as it '
is completed it will be filled with great cubes
of ice shipped hither from one of the Arctio
lakes np in Idaho. This is the first building
commenced of the several that will be re
quired for the railroad. Tbe cars will take
ice at Ashland for the convenience of passen
gers and the eating house also to be estab

ply through the Summer months.
Justice Lamar, as is well known, is a very
absent minded man. A few days be board.d
a "bob-tail" street car in Washington in
company with his friend Senator Cockrell of
Missouri, the ex-stcretury walked dream
ily up to the box and dropped a quarter
through the slit. "Why, Lamur!" exclaim
ed tbe senntor, "what are you doing? You
put a quarter in the box." "Why, so I did,"
replied Lamar, "and I knew the fare was
only five cents." And thereupon he slipped
a nickel into the box, thus paying thirty
coats for his ride. '
