THINGS TO CONSIDEli.
1. 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 ?
