Have you ever seen a laborer who cared a nickle whether he worked for a protected or an unprotected employer ? 2. Have you ever seen a laborer who ex pected to receive more wages from a pro tected than an unprotected employer .' 1. Have vou ever seen a protected man ufacturer pay higher wayes than he was compelled to r . Have vou ever seen a very wealthy firm pay more wages than a moderately wealthy one .' 5. Have you ever given more for any thinir than vou were required to ? No ; and furthermore,!! you should, you wm,11 mil vnurself a fool. 6. If, then.the unprotected manufacturer ,.. ;ct ns hich waees.and still is able to r, j 0 a . make a profit.by what method of reasoning do you arrive at the conclusion mat tne protected manufacturer pays higher wages lvrmiKft of nrotection ? 7. And If the protected manufacturer does not pay more than the unprotected one, what becomes of your protection theo ries r 8. Is it vour answer that protection rais es all classes of wages in all occupations ? 9. If that is it, then, as labor is nor, pro-tp-tfd from foreign immigration, you must of course include the raising of all wages in all countries. Now, if that Is true, men how about the pauper wages of Europe ? 10. If you say capital will not be invest ed unless it is protected, how do you ex plain the fact that it is being Invested In unprotected industries ? 11. If protection prevents us from selling in foreign markets, does not protection make less work instead of more ? 12. If there is free trade in laoor and high protective prices for those things which laborers must buy,is not the laborer being robbed instead of benefitted ? 13. If protectionists desire to pay high wages, why do they always employ the cheapest labor they can find ? , 14. H wages are increased by protection, why do these protected manufacturers in dorse protection and 6pend large sums of money to uphold it ? 15. If unprotected industries pay the nine wages as those that are protected,are they not as valuable, and if so, why burden them by making them pay heavy taxes to the protected ones ? A remarkable illustration of the transfor mation of parties which is now in progress has just been furnished in Illinois. In wel coming a delegation of visitors from that State last week, Gen. Harrison said : "I recall that it was on the soil of Illinois that Lovejoy died a martyr to free speech." This week a nephew of the Lovejoy to whom Gen. Harrison referred, a son of another Lovejoy who was an equally earn- est abolitionist, who has been nominated for Congress by the Democrats of his district. The free-whisky policy lias driven him from the party to which his father belong cd when it stood for free speech. WATCH II HI. n,.rt m-Hrlents. Maine will be on a .! ,-nn unit In a few davs making speech es for Mr. Harrison, the Chinaman's friend. People are curious to know how he win harmonize hU views on the tariil question with the principles of his party's platform. L: st fall in his "message" from Paris he said : "I would not advise the repeal of the whisky tax. Other considerations than tl,n(i- nf financial administration arc to be taken into account with regard to whisky . There is a moral side to it. 'lo cheapen 1.. nri.- rt u-hlskv is to increase its con sumption enormously. Whisky would be everywhere distilled if the surveillance ot the government were withdrawn by the .,nulnn of the tax. and illicit sales could nnt then be prevented even by a policy as rigorous and searching as that with which Russia nursues the Nihilists. The tax on whisky by the federal government, with its suppression of all illicit distillation and con sequent enhancement of price, has been a powerful agent in the temperance reform bv putting it beyond the reach of so many. The amount of whisky consumed in the United States per capita is not more than 40 per cent of that consumed thirty years nan " The nlatfomi sars : "We favor the entire repeal of internal taxes rather than the surrender of any part of our protective system at the joint behest ot tne wnisny trusts and the agents of foieign n anufac turers." Blaine savs he would not repeal the whisky tax. His party says it would. Watch linn. England has the lowest tariff In all Eu rope and the highest wages are paid there. Australia is a free trade continent. Wages are paid there than anywhere else on earth The Canadian tariff is higher than ours. Wages are lower in Canada than they are here. The Mexican tariff is much higher than ours. A good man, if he can get work, can earn twenty-five cents a day in Mexico This is even lower than Mr. Harrison's standard, for he was willing to allow $1 a day to a worklngman. The East Oregmia says : "Umatilla county will probably raise two million bushels of wheat this year, requiring a million sacks, costing $100,000. Of this about $40,000 is a tariff tax. The demo cratic party proposes to reduce It twenty per cent.,(They propose to reduce It 40 per cent, Eds. DEM.,)rrto save $20,000 for the farmers of Umatilla county alone on the one item of jute sacks. The republicans propose to give them free whisky." At the convention of the state federation and trades unions held In Indianapolis yesterday, composed of 265 delegates from all parts of the state, resolutions were adopt cd condemning Harrison and Morton.This will very likely cook Harrison's goose. Estimates made as to the outcome of the November election in Iowa are that allow ing to the Republicans the best apparent chance of carrying the state, there Is a more than even chance that the Democrats wlil gain two members of Congress. Here Is a problem which no supporter of Harrison has been able to answer, and the campaign is now six weeks old : If a 47 percent, tariff is Protection, how can a 40 per cent, tariff be called free trade ?
