THE DULY l)!nO!UT. THETIN PLATE IH'l'Y, Tnere it no moie unjustifiable tax upon American lndutrv than the tin plate duty. It is a bare-ficed swindle, without the semblance of a decent protext. Though methods of onlv one of the numerous drawing the life blood from our languish ing agriculture to nourish insolent monop oly.it is maintained w ith an impudence and greed from which a'l t:ne of shame long since disappeared. The tir plate plunderers feel that their opportunity has arrived for another turn of the screw upon their victim. They did what they could for the suppoi t of the mor.opo'y system, as a whole, by tlio wan amakering ot the presidential and con gressional ejections, resulting in Harrison and this congress, with boo Jlers on top all around, and they demand their full sha.e of the spoils We preferto give their fur ther Inlcntions in the authorize! versions, furnished bv the l'htladelphia AiyiiiVrr, a very wideawake republican organ, which on important occasions gets its news at first hand from Mr. Boss Qusy, the gen t'eman who cuts the pie and distributes the pieces. Here is the Inquiry's special, giving us very pbinly to undei stand what the tin plate cormorants propose to do with us: The arguments advanced by .M r. V. C. Cronemever, of the American lm 1 late association, before the wavs and means committee is likely to bear fruit when the revenue bill is framed. Mr. Cronemever, who is from Pitsburg, put plate business in a very strong light, showing how hundreds of dollars are annually paid for the impor. tatlon of this article, which cannot be manufactured at a profit in this country under the present duty of one cent per pound. He also sLowed that capital was waiting to be invested and labor to be em ployed in the Industry as soon as it was sufficiently protected, and argued for an increase in the duty to 2i cents per pound. It is now understood from good ' ..i i... th new revenue bill will rnntAin the increase. The increased tariff on tin plate will effect another industry . . . i. t .;.icl.ln tmnortance. es- wmcn is ui luuawM..- ..n.. i nnrih. and that is the can- nine trade. To offset the increased price of tin cans it Is proposed to aDOiisn wi niiiv ill duty on sugar, which is an item of great importance to the business mentioned. One objection to this comes from the beet and sorghum growing state of the southwest. To equalize matters and prevent any loss in these industries, the committee propose a bounty for the raising of these croos. i ins is uic of what the new- bill will contain in order to encourase the tin plate industry. This scheme of plain, strong-handed robbery is a fair specimen of the big schemes and of the little schemes, which go to make up any scheme of taxes which is Intended to benefit private enterprises and not to raise public revenues. Its ai turditv does not strike its beneficarles or their political sponsors and abettors, simp. Iv because they have never been accus tomed to lk upon government other wise tha i :t- in agency for their personal atrerandizen- -. "id feel for the prosper. itv of fieir c -tv only in their pockets. Whatabeautiiv plan of restriction upon nackers. of taxes uoor. consum ers, ot Doun tiestosuirar raisers, all winding up in rich thidi to the tin olate barons! It is the very neatest method imaginable of absord Inc'otlier people's property by the beautif u device of a government monopoly, giving the earnings of many to a few. It is comfortir.g to read sometimes that even the best men of the past, and such as are now held in the highest esteem, had special and ofien great infirmities. It is a blessing, too. that biographers have been honest enough to record them. Klections no longe elect, in Congressional districts, until Boss Quay has decided how Urge a Republican -najority is desirable in the low er house. Senator lllair says he is a friend of human ity. Then why doesn't Ve give humanity a After a most exhaustive and very fair investi gation into the contest over the governorship of West Virginia, it has been decked that Fleming, the democrat was duly elected, and he was therefore inaugurated the 6th inst to the great satisfactory of all well meaning people in that state. The republican licuienant governor of Mon tana, like his prototype, Reed, sneaker of the house, decides that members of the state senate are present whether voting or not. It is said the democratic senators w ill leave the state before they w ill submit to his arbitrary and high handed rulings. Navajo Indians in San Juan county.
