JLii Grande Letter.
Ed. Scout.
In order to discuss political ques
tions intelligently it is necessary to
understand. the position of parties on
the issiios of the day. The republi
cans are in favor of .a higher tarill',
having protection for il object and
rovenue ns an incident. While demo
crats arc in favor of u tarifl for revenue
and protection a an incident. IJoth
parties are in favor of protection more
or Icpp. Tlio question how much tar
iff wo should have on manufactured
goods in order to compete successfully
with imported goods is the real ques
tion at issue. The republicans declare
that a high tariff, our present tariff of
47.10 per cent, is accessary for success
ful competition with foreign goods.
The democrats declare that a low tar
iff say 25 per cent is all that is neces
sary for successful competition. They
declare further that any more tariff
than is necessary for successful com
petition is a direct bonus to the man
ufacturer and is robbery of the con
sumer in the name of law. They de
clare further that such legislation is
for the benefit of the few at the ex
pense of the many, When all the un
favorable conditions of successful man
ufacturing in (he United States are
provided for by our tariff every demo
crat and every republican will say that
higher tariff than that is a bonus to
the manufacturer ho ought not to have
and just so much taken unjustly from
the consumer. Jt is admitted by all
that we have more, cheaper and better
raw material than any other country
that wo have the bent labor saving ma
chinery in the world. That our labor
is nioro intelligent than that of any
other country in Europe. Wo also
have a percentage in freight- and in
surance; why then can we not com-
peto in our own and , the markets of
thu world? Oh! say the republicans,
we cannot compete with the cheaper
pauper labor of Europe and this !-eems
to be the only unfavorable condition
which presents successful competition
without any tariff as all other condi
tions are are in our favor. For thu
sake of this argument we will admit
the premises of the republicans, that
labor is much higher in America than
in Kuropc. As a matter of fact, if wo
judge the price of labor, not by how
much it is per day, but by its product
ive power, it can ho shown positively
that pauper labor is the dearest in the
world and that American labor by the
uko of our labor saving machines and
by its intelligence is the cheapest in tho
world. Admit that wages in America
are double what they are in Europe
tho question is, can wo afford to pay
that under a rovenue um 11 ot 2 per
cent and successfully compete. Jf we
can that should be an cud of tho argu
moot and every man should admit
that a tariff from 10 to 200 per ont is
not needed and tho excess of 2fi per
cent is a bonus to manufacturers they
do not need and is robbery of tho con
HUmer in tho nanio of law. Tho
amount paid for labor varies from lii
to about Ilfi per cent in manufacturing,
Fay on an average ot iiutmt so per
cent. Js'ow if wo havo a tariff of
tier cent that pays for all our labor
and if laborcosts nothing in tho old
world and all our labor is paid for by
a tin ill of 2o per cent and all other
coiuuuons arom our nvvor wny can
wo not unuer sucn coiuuuons success
fully compoto with foreign nmnufactu
rers? If our promises are correct and
wo assert they can not bo disputed,
then it follows logically that a 25 per
:ent (anil allords all tho protection
any manufacturer should havo and is
a complcto justification of tho demo
cratie dootrino of a tariff for revenue
only. ' If a manufacturer under a 25
per iynt tariff can manufacture a yard
of cloth ami sell it at a roasonablo
profit at $1.25 that is all tho protection
ho should havo and if we give- him
(0 per cent protection wo cnahlo him
to rob the consumer of 35 conta. This
ahowR tho difference between a demo
cratic and a republican tariff. Tho
one gives the manufacturer all tho
protcotion ho should havo and enables
him to pay good wages and gives tho
consumers cheap goods. Tho other
not only gives the manufacturer all
tho piotoction ho should have hut also
give him n direct bonus by robbing
tho consumer of an additional por
com ho ought not to have. This is too
plain for argument. Tho valuo of
money is its purchasing power. All
tho nccoBsarica of life aro raised in
price by a high protective tariff unless
wages aro raibed in liko proportion.
Tho wages of the laloror aro really less
under a high tariff than under a low,
though ho may got as much per day
under ono as under tho other for thu
purchasing power of his wages has
boon decreased. Now, if 25 per cent
will pay or all tho labor in nianufuo
luting mid if laborcosts twice as much
in America as in Europe a 25 per cent
tariff gives tho American manufactu
rer 12 per cent advantage over his
European rival on the condition of
wages. Or in other words a tariff for
revenue, a low tariff, protects the la
borer, the toiling millions, while as re
publican tariff, a high tariff, robs him
for tho benefft of our manufacturers.
Thus far in this anvas the republicans
have been raising tho cry of free trade
and protection of manufacturers.
Nobody but a demagogue or driveling,
semi-insane, lanuf.cal Ingot will Keep
ii) thu cry of free trade. That cry
has already spct its force. A homo
in a lunatic asylum or a house for the
reformation of political fools and idiots
would bo a blessing to all such editors
and political cranks. The Mills lull is
a high tariff bill. It was not drawn
up to defend a theory of government.
its object is to soadiust llic tarm as
to reduce tho Kiirplus and btop accu
initiating monev in tho treasury. It
leaves the question of how much ro
duction of tho tariff should be made
on certain articles to tho future action
of congress. To call it a freo trade
bill is an insult to the intelligent men
of both parties. If Cleveland is re
elected, reduction of tarifl', tariff reform
is a settled question. If ho is beaten
the light goes on. Lhe causo is pro
gressing and the masses of tho people
are being aroused. The advent of the
people is coming and "woo to tho man
and woe to the partv that falls beneath
Min m?'iMi of flmir lilirrlitini' indiirna-

As to -'shot guns and blood hounds
and masked men" we aro entirely free.
Wo havo no slaves to bo fugitives; no
lashes to be applied ; no dealers in hu
man flesh and bono; no citizens war
ring and struggling for a right to bo
bought with blood. All this is past.
America is united. Her citizens aro
all citizens with one common object in
view. Tho preservation and advance
ment of American glory and Ameri
can greatness. The war is over, the
slaves aro free and equal citizens, and
the people that took arms against
America in 1861 would take up arms
for her mid fight with tho samo patri
otic valor to-day that they did then.
They would buffer tho most extreme
deprivations of brutal warfare in the
name of united America to-day, with
all tho earnestness und resignation
that they stood to divide her in
1S01. Wo aro prosperous and peace
ful ; harmony in advancement exists,
and only on little trivial party inter
ests aro we divided. And now, Bio.
Irwin, why do you dig up the old ani
mosities of tho past? Does it mako
one more wave on the sea of American
greatness? One moru noto in tho har
mony of American action? No! but
rather it tends to crcato more and
stronger prejudices and hatred in tho
present political circles. It generates
new hatred, for faults rehearsed only
opens tho fastly healing wounds. It
divides tho people in wider and more
distant relation to each other, and
brings out paltry, insignificant oppo
sitions that tend to mako men ene
mies. This is not political valor,
is not justico to the devotion of
citizens to immortal America
therefore is not just opposition.
It
her
aiu
Tho
"bloody shirt" should ncvorbo tlaunte
over tho camps of the united people o
this republic; it was steeped in the in
utility ot a lieiuush ago : it was satu
rated In tho tilth of n dirty and vile
period, and now it is a truo spirit of
patriotism manifested to wring the
filth from its old rotten fragment, and
let it drop in tho shrino of our united
devotion? Tho issues of this day aro
what should bo fully opened up to tho
gaze of your pcoplo. Tako up tho
platforms of each party and dissect
them joint by joint. Look at their
various features and many propositions.
Tho democratic platforin suggests
reduction of tho taxation on tho ne
cessities of life, while tho republican
platform favors a reduction of tho in-
tcrnal rovonuo, which will let us oniov
free - whisky nnd free tobacco, which is
"ot objected to by its devotees, lxik
t it plausibly and set it boforo tho
people in thu language that none can
fail to understand and don't for tho
io of your own party dig un tho
up
tomahawk and flaunt tho iniquitous
tilth of bygono times in tho conscious
oyes of American splendor.
Whenever wo resort to such argu
ments to strengthen party faith wo aro
surely becoming vory fcearec of the
real truthful opposition upon which to
found tho wall of party division. No
paper can successfully circulate among
ft pcoplo when it does not recognixo
tho infalliblo right of every man to
think, and vote for himself. No mau
wants to pay for literaturo thatdenom
hint on tho party to which ho belongs'
j by virtue of his candid convictions, as
"blood hounds" and "hell-hounds"
and "ballot box stutters" and all such
villainous names. Old war records,
and anecdotts aro not fit missils to
hurl into the political camp of to-day,
aiua man who sets himself up us an
example of piety and righteousness,
should not, under any circumstances
be the one to herald in the reign of
corruption and vicious arguments.
An example tot in one phase of hi?
life should fully accord with all other
examples that u man may be called
upon to set by virtue of occupation.

A WARNING.
nc inotcs f death's approach are
various, ana statistics snow conclusive
ly that more people die from diseases
of tho throat and lungs than any other,
It is probable that everyone without
exception, receives vast numbers of
tubercle germs into the syatem and
where these germs fall upon suitable
soil they start into life and develop, at
first slowly and is shown by a slight
tickling sensation in tho throat and if
allowed to continue their ravages they
extend to tho lungs producing con
sumption and to the head, causing ca
tarrh. Now all this is dangerous and
if allowed to proceed will in time cause
loath. At tho onset you must act
with promptness; allowing a cold to go
without attention is dangerous and
may loto you vour inc. as soon as
you feel (hat something is wrong with
your throat, lungs or nostrils, obtain a
bottle of IJosehee b German byrup. It
will give you immediate relief.
