F. Magee, et White Reck.aud Jean H. Lsadk, of Maner township. There would nave been a mueh larger crowd if aotlee et tbe meeting bad been given sooner and the bills mere widely circulated, but these present wera se well pleased that they voted unanimously for a prolongation et the contest beyond tbe time fixed. Tbe debate waa en the following resolu reselu resolu teon: Bttelvtd, Tbat any material reduction In our protective tar in would be an Injury te the American people. Kaeb et the contestants hsd three speeches et twenty minutes each, Mr. Landls open ing the debate. He repeated the well known and badly-worn argument et bis party that our prosperity under high tatifl warrants Its oentlnuanoe, and selecting a numberef Industries he showed bow they had teen built up under protection. He re ferred te the period from 1850 te I860, when the term was at Its lowest, and quoted from President Buchanan te abew the evil Influence el this condition. Squire Magee replied that Buebanan spoke aa quoted In 1861 at the end et the period, and .proceeded te auew fiat in tbe decade selected by Mr. Landls our manufactured products showed a net Inerease et 85 per oent Frem 1800 te 1870 under a high tarlfi the gain waa only 64 per eent, and from 1870 te 1880 only 67 per eent; se that tbe time eeleeted by Mr. Ltndls as giving the best Illustration of the evlls of low taxes wss by far the beat for our manufacturing development Mr. Landla then endeavored te show bow the manufacture of oarbello acid, atarcb, tar, Aa, bad been made possi ble by the tariff, and went en te argue that all wagea bed been raised by protec tion ; but 'flqutre Maaee waa resdy with a maw of statistics from offi cial reports showing tbst the high tarlfls of Germany, Mexloe and ether nations are accompanied by lower wagee than are found In England, and that wagea In America vary according te the productive capacity of the banda. Colored labor In parts et the Seuth earns but 82 a week. The advantage of the American laborer was shown te be due net te high tarlfi but te greater productive capacity and the widely different conditions surrounding bim. If due te high tariff why are net wages high In Mexloe snd Germany f At the opening of tbe discussion Mr. Ma gee laid down a 810 bill and announeed tbat he would give It te anyone wbe would de teet an error In bis figures. He said that all his facta were taken from ofnelal reperta and the census. His opponent bad evidently depended upon the campaign literature sent out by bla party committee, and as a result be waa several times badly tripped up by Mr. Magee. He ssld In one of bis orsterloal flights that "tens of hundreds, yes tens et theussnds of men were employed In the sslt Industry." Mr. Magee arose with the solid fact tbat the number et men employed was exactly 4,623. He made a similar blunder In tbe pottery manufacturers, Mr. Magee showing that the number el workers was really email. On every point taken the statesman was easily defeated by the squire and Landla subsequently confessed bla defeat, and said that he would bav9 te pest himself before he again ventured te argue with Mr. Magee. At the oenoluslon et the debate a proposal for three oheera for Cleveland, Tburman and the MUls bill wss received with three reusing cheers, snd there was net even a shout for high tariff and Lindls. There waa the best of feeling between the men of varleua parties present snd all seemed anxious te see fair play and bear an open and equal discussion of the issues. Many Republicans present, who bad been reading only the papers of their party, were astonished at the atrength et the Demo cratic side et the cese. Messrs. Magee and Landls will bold another joint debate at Christiana en Mon day nigh Vend they are alae arranging for a meeting at Mount Jey. Arrangements bave been made between D. F. Magee and Jehn H.
