The Tariff As I See It-
It has seemed strange to me, that
farmers, mechanics and laboring men
can be induced to vote with the party
that favors a protective tariff. I do
not think, that either of those classes
could be induced so to vote, if they
clearly understood the workings of a
tariff, and how it effected their inter
ests. I shall make the bold assertion, that
there never has been a tariff bill framed,
never can be, consequently never will
be one framed, that will bear upon and
benefit alike all classes and conditions
of our citizens. Hence every tariff
bill, no matter by whom framed, is
more or less unjust ; and the higher
the tanff the greater the injustice to
those who are not directly or indirect
ly benefitted by it.
The only ground of justification for
1 revenue tariff is based upon the fact,
that every citizen is benefitted by our
federal union, and the laws which with
in the constitution are necessary to
provide for the ' general welfare, and
are therefore under obligations to bear
a fair share of the expense of the gov
ernment. It may not be amiss to notice here,
that any law that is calculated by its
terms or by its effect to benefit a few
at the expense or detriment of the
many, is not only unjust, but is un
warranted by our federal compact.
And such is every protective tariff.
Farmers and laboring men are not di
rectly or indirectly benefitted by such
tariff.
I am aware that the advocates of
protection claim that it raises wages
and increases the price of the farmer'3
produce. They have a theory to that
effect, but the facts contradict their
theory. Farmers of middle age can
easily remember when their produce
brought more than at present. Wages
were higher, and they could more easi
ly pay their needed help. Tariff was
no higher, in fact the average duty
was lower ; hence we must conclude
that the law of supply and demand
regulates the price of each.
If a tariff for revenue were just, and
that were the most economical way of
raising money, why not adopt it to
raise money for our municipal ex
penses? Let us suppose or imagine a town
ship or county which would form on a
small scale a case parallel to that of
our federal government To do this
there would have to be within its lim
its a few manufacturing industries suf
ficient to supply the needs of the com
munity ; but a large majority of the
citizens should be farmers, mechanics
tad laboring men. Let us suppose
that to defray the expenses of this
community, such as making roads,
keeping up schools and paying officers
who directed the affairs of the com
munity, they should impose a duty or
tariff upon all or nearly all imports
" brought into the district ; particularly
pon all manufactured articles that
ould compete with those manufac
tured by the infant industries operated
within the supposed district.
Would not those operators raise the
price of their wares all or nearly all,
ihat their protection would warrant ?
And would not the citizens soon find
outthut they were paying the duty
themselves ? And would not the farm
ers if they were raising largely in ex
cess of the home market, learn that a
duty on their cereals could not benefit
them ? And would not all who were
not directly benefitted by the protec
tion, soon make another very impor
tant discovery? viz: That they were
not only paying the duty themselves,
but that they were paying more than
dieir fair share of their municipal ex
penses, besides paying large prices for
manufactured articles in order that
the operators of those infant industries
may roll in wealth, whilst they must
work early and late to secure the
wherewithal to keep body and soul to
gether. A little experience like the above
supposed case would convince the
most stupid person, that the foreign
importer does not pay the duty. I am
aware that protectionists claim this,
and they find plenty of men innocent
enough to believe it
Now I pity any man who is verdant

enough to be deluded by such sophis
try. And yet he is perhaps happier
than his more intelligent or better in
formed neighbor who is chafeing un
der the knowledge that he is being
bled to fill the coffers of some pam
pered millionaire
Another claim set up by these pro
tectionists, is that a tariff does not in
crease the price of goods or machinery
manufactured here, that in a very
short time they can and do sell even
cheaper than they could without the
protection does not protect or that our
manufactures do not need the protection.
But it is not true. Protection does
increase prices whenever and wherever
trusts are formed to break down com
petition, as every manufacturer and
every intelligent person who has taken
the trouble to inform himself very
well knows.
It is true that many of our manufac
tured articles are cheaper now, than
they were earlier in our history. Cot
ton goods are much cheaper than they
were in the days of Mrs. Washington,
when she spun by hand the cotton for
her own clothing ; but the increase of
tariff has not been the cause of the re
duction in price If tariff made low
prices, our manufacturers and mill
owners would shout themselves hoarse
in favor of free trade, or they are far
more self sacrificing than they have
credit for being.

New railroad talk has been revived
here the past few days by the appear

and speculation is rife as to whom
they represent. Opinion is evenly
divided as to whether they are here
in the interest of the Pennsylvania or
Lehigh & Eastern, but it is more
probable that they represent the re
cently chartered Lehigh & Western,
whose route is from the Lehigh at
White Haven, to the Susquehanna
near Bloomsburg or Berwick. They
are running a line now between the
two rivers, but whether they will go
any farther than that no one seems to
know. Future developments are anx

of taxation. The seed of this republio

Reed says, "There is no other way in
which money is appropriated whereby

taxation without representation is tyran

the fact that only one person in twenty
in this country is engaged in a protected

he extols this kind of taxation above all

THE BUFFALO P 1221.0.
The National r.rpuliMa'nn lr'ie t' 1
Trillion Was a I l KIHir.
The convention of th Ntlorml Lpajjno
of Republican claim tit DurYnlo, prepara
tion for which had been In progress for
months, nnd at wliioh 10,0iHi delegates
nnd spectators were rxpreted, was the
greatest U.Ae of this cauip.i'.KH to 'nto.
Wheu the convention was willed to
order the gathering was about tho size
of a clues meeting in i country village
and just about as demonstrative.
The leaders of tho movement seemed
paralyzed with astonishment, and ap
parently wero not certain "where they
were at." In this particular their minds
were relieved by Jndjre Hnlght, who in
welcoming them to Buffalo said:
"You nre npon the northern boundary
of onr government at the foot of Erie,
by tho side of tho Niagara, overlooking
the queen's dominions. You are in the
city of Buffalo."
Mr. Whitclaw Reid's newspaper was
greatly depressed by tho small attend
ance at tho opening session, and ac
counted for it in part by tho childlike
and bland excuso that "the delegations
from some states were lured off to
Niagara falls," as if that wonderful
freak of nature could draw zealous Re
publicans away from McKlnlcy, Clark
son and such great lights of their party.
The samo newspaper says that later on
the attendance was swollen to "about
600 delegates," and adds that General
Clarkson said there would have been
twice as many but for the "cholera
scare."
It's no use to lio about it. The truth
is the convention was a flat failure, and
General Clarkson was so cast down that
he declined to deliver his carefully pre
pared address. Following tho great fiz
zle at Woodsdalo park in Ohio, the fail
ure of tho Republican and People's party
annex to carry Arkansas and the deep
slump in Maine and Vermont, this
wretched failure at Buffalo must give
the wholo Repnblican party tho blues.

TWICE ELECTED COVERNOR.
Judge Morris Defrauded of III nights
on Two Occasion.
For the third time Judge Luzon B.
Morris has been nominated by the Con

crats for tho of
fice of governor.
He has been elect
ed by a plurality
of votes on both

has failed to re

which the peopl

time, however, he is expected to be elect
ed by a handsome majority.
Judge Morris was born at Newtown
Conn., April 10, 1827, and was educated
at Yale oollege, graduating in 1854. Ht
was admitted to the bar in 1850, and hat
practiced in New Haven county evei
since. He has been elected to the stat
honse of representatives for six terms
first in 1855, and then in 1850, 1870, 1870
1880 and 1881. In 1874 he was electee
to the state senate, and served as pretsi
dent pro tern, of the body. Mr. Morrii
In 1857 was elected probate jndgo foi
the New Haven probate, and served it
that capacity for six years. He was ap
pointed by the legislature of the state o!
Connecticut in 1885 as chairman of th
commission to revise the probate lawi
of the state, which revision was adopt
ed and is now in force. He has als
held numerous local offices.
