PHILADELPHIA, Die 11, '03 Tin: btst way to put an end to the distress existing in this country io for the Democratic members of the Houne ofltepreseutatlves, whenever the Tarifl bill is brought up In the Committee of the Whole, to knock out the enacting clause. The KepublicaiiH will help them. The member who makes that motion will go down in history as wise legislator.

Beeciieb's dog Noble, having seen a wood-chuck disappear down a hole, was accustomed to go and bark at that hole for hours at a time. The Democratic New York limes is re minded of It by Senator Hoar's dis agieeable persistency in calling upon the Executive Department for infor mation as to.tlie Hawaiian situation. "It Is not recoided," says The Times, "thut the woodehuck was ever either captured orgreatly disturbed thereby." The woodehuck in this case, it is sup posed, is President Cleveland. That he is In a hole is cettaiuly true. But it Is a little early to count on his never being either captured or disturbed. Unless he has pulled the hole in after him he is sure to re appear. And he will re-appoar solely because of the barking which the dog Noble, In the form of the American Senate, has been keeping up. There is already, in fact, something very much resem bling a woedchuck's head beginning to stick out of the Hawaiian hole.

THE WILSON BILL ASSAILED roBcribod as "Only Another Tariff Tinkering Bill." CREATES A PRIVILEGED 0LA88. The Proponed Now TnrllT Minnro, tli Minority lirclurr, In Not in Keeping with tlie DcclnriMl I'rlnof pttffl of the Doinlimnt larty Ini-fjualltlim of thf Frvn Ituw Mnlfiriiil Vrnllolu u Hern Through Itr jHlhtlrttii Spi-Hiit-lt'. Washington, Dec. 22. The report of the minority members of tho ways and means committee on the tariff bill was lubmittcd to the house yesterday. The first part of the report diaciiHsitiK the hill wn generally prepared by ex-Speaker Heed. The other memherft of the minor ity. MeHsrs. Ilurrows, 1'aynp, Dalzcll. Hop and Gear, prepared the portion of the re port denlliiK with tho speclnl feature. The report sayo In part: The most surprising thliiR nbout thii hill, which we will treat ot indctail some what later, Is the fact that this propo sition to raise revenue will lower the reve nue of this country $74,01)0,000 below tho revenue of 18!, which was only fc',000,000 above our expenses. This fact and tho other fact that by this bill tho Intwr pnrt of the burden of taxation is transferred from foreigners and borne by our own citizens should always be kept in mind during the discussion. Had tho commltteo in making what the lmlrmanon tho floor of the house has called a "political bill" followed the plain, uncompromising declaration of the party which tuey represent, and abol ished protection, giving us a tarifl for rev enue only, our task in commenting upon the result of the committee's efforts would have been much more simple. The bill would then have been a straightforwaid, manly attempt to carry out pledges, anil would have placed in issue two great prin ciples nud have led to a clear and com prehensible discussion. Another Tnrlir Tinkering Hill. Tho commltteo, Instead of proceeding in Its great work of abolishing protection nnd preserving the people from the load of taxation which they have always averred was tho result of protection, has presented a bill which is only another tar iff tinkering bill, the like of which has disturbed the conditions of business so many times the last thirty years. It is a great misfortune that such Is the case, for had the bill been for revenue only in the only sense possible for that term the people of this country might have seen at one glance whether they desired the one polioy or theothcr, nnd the question might have been settled once for all. Tlie new plan involves a new method of encouraging manufacturers by giving them what are called'T ree raw materials," so that what goes into mills pays no taxes, ami what goes into consumption pays all the taxes. It unfortunately hap pens also that "free raw material" is an elastic term, and what is ono man's free raw material is another man's Mulshed product. AH the objections so often urged by the dominant party against tho existing sys tem, we repeat, lie against, tlds bill. The dlllerence is only one of degree. If tho present system be "robbery," as these men have Iterated and reiterated, the pro posed system is precisely the same. If, as It Is asi-erted, the "0,000,000 of American people have been for thirty years taxed for the benefit of a few hun dred thousands of favored individuals, why should ithe taxation be continued even in diminished ratio for another series of years and these few hundred thousand favored creatures be given a new lease of lifer A Ravenna Turin Without Itevennp, This bill pietends to be a revenue tariff and does not raise revenue. It pretends to give protection, but destroys it in every direct way. It says to tho manufacturer, for you we have furnished free coal, free iron ore, free wool and the markets of tho world. Instead of the market of the world It furnishes In the futureanewcrop of enemies the men who dig in the mines and the farmers who raise the sheep for it really creates what Its enemies have falsely charged against Republican pro tection, a privileged class, against which tho mines aud the fields will both array themselves. And tho privileged class does not desire to be thus privileged. All it asks, or lias ever asked, is to he protected. not alone, but with all other citizens, from the destructive competition with a lower grade of social life. The moral and social well being or a nation does not depend uo much upon its absolute wealth as npou the yearly dis tribution of the yearly gaiu. Whatever eau be said of the people of the United States, nothing can be more truly said than that the distribution of the proceeds of united labor and capital ha been among them more even and fair than anywhere else on earth. There have been great accumulations of capital ueeeusary for the world development over tbe urn rerae, but in the United States all this has been accompanied by the nearest ap proach to general distribution that the world has ever seen. This has not been all owing to the tariff, but the tariff hag been the foundation of it. Iabor organizations have played great and useful part in this distribution. Men In general who employ labor are no more naturally disposed to pay high wages under tariff than those who exploit the laboring man under free trade, but the tariff, by giving steady employment undr the Influence of a sure market, by establishing the organisation of Industry under the factory system, has given to or ganized lalMir the material to work upon the fund of which It hat demanded distri bulion. What Protection Rm Puna. Protection has established the clusters of great manufacturing and working cen ters, which have given railroads the pos sibility of existence winch ao scattered aoDnlation could ever have created. The railroads which these .great manufactur ing towns am! their met I of transporta tion ot fie. uht have built are wain es of enJoyn'ii- wealth which are not coulined to the protected industries, but are spread through all the business of the United States and inure to the comlm-t and hap pi 1 1 ess of all the people, lo those of us who believe in protection it seems beyond dispute that the acknowl edged rise in wages in this country lias been caused by protection as tho great stimulator of invention and progross. Tho committee, however, probably believe tho contrary. That higher wages exist, how ever, or did exist beforo this bill thrent cned the country, can not be disputed. 'I lint these wngea are maintained by pro tection against lower wage of foreign countries can hardly be successfully ques tioned. If In the Unlled States there are higher wages and a higher cost of capital theie must be such barriers against goods from abroad as will equalize these higher costs, or the products of the United Htntes can not be wild except, at a loss. Sales at a om cannot long continue. There is also a constant demand for lower prices, which demand has to be listened to in a country always striving toward a higher plane, of civilization. e have, therefore, before lis always three problems wages to bo maintained, hours of labor to be lessened i aud prices to be lowered. Xot one, but all. 1 It is true thut invention at once keeps i paoe with and regulates the demand fur higher wages and lower prices and fewer hours, which are the conditions of our i higher plane of civilization, but It can not do more. It can not meet, Inaddition, the lower prices of a lower lovel of civiliz ation. Our inventions nroloo nulokly al)- sorbed by foreign countries to permit this. Hence the result of u refusal to protect our labor at lis present rates must result in lower wages. The New llllt Will Iiwer WnsM. Our goods are now met by foreign goods on our own shores at a price made up of raw materials, plus labor and plus the present rate of tarllf, on very nearly equal terms. If the tariff element bo lowered then something must be lowered on our side, and In the Inst analysis It will be labor nud capital, and in the long run the loss of capital is also a loss of labor, for capital employs labor, and lost capital sets no machinery In motion. We must then meet the reduction of price of for eign goods, which Hie our competitors, by reduction of the price of labor. Time was when lower prices and higher wages were scouted as incompatible ami nbsurd, and as things that could notcxlst together, but today both are recognized as reasonable demnuds when reasonably lim ited. Lower prices will lake care of them selves, and so will higher wages if tln-y are not interfered with by competition from regions where the different social status causes laborers to be. content with lesser results. The consumer will take care of himself if you look after the producer, for he is one and the same Individual. Hut while this bill in its principle, if it has any, is not unprotective, it will be ab solutely so in practice, not only in its direct reductions but also in its indirec t, reductions, sure to come from the change from specillc duties to ad vnloiem, which is a mnrked feature of the bill. An ad valorem duty, us the nnme implies, is one which varies according to the price. If prices could be exactly determined noth ing would seem to be fairer than an ail valorem duty. Hut, unfortunately, prices are very much matters of opinion on which holiest men may diller much and rogues much more. A lllow at the Wool ImliiHtry. In discussing the woolen question the minority say this schedule, as proposed in the committee bill. Is in some respects the most reprehensible. It proposes to de stroy at a blow the great industiyof wool growing, which now ranks as seventh, in tho value of its products, among tho sev eral branches of American agriculture, and which has heretofore been recognized as an agricultural product deserving nnd requiring protection, under every admin istration and by every tnrilTnctslnce that of Mny 22, 1S24. Nothing short of tho total destruction of this importnnt indus try can bo counted upon as tho conse quence of placing both wool and mutton on the lree list. The depreciation In the value of this species of agricultural pro crty trom the two sources may be con servatively stated at S.10,000,000. The bill deals with the wool manufac ture in terms scarcely less radical than those accorded the wool growing industry, upon which it so largely depends. The metal schedule Is described an illog ical in its disregard of the relations that exist between more aud less llnished pro ducts nnd the totally inadequate duties named upon certain leading articles. The report proceeds: the bill proposes to put Into competi tion with American ores foreign ores, Borne of which are produced at it labor cost one-tenth, nnd none of them at a labor cost greater than on 'ourth ot ours. Having sacrificed over ha. I a million dol lnrs per annum of revenue to tho vagary ofllce trade the "tariff bill for revenue" proposes to effect another large source of revenue by serious redu ctlon of the duties on pig iron. That d uty now is Jli.72 per ton. The duty proposed Is 325 per cent., ad valorem, or nbout from 1.00 to 1.00 per ton, a lower tariff than was over beforo pro posed on this article. Why Coal Nhoold Pay Ilulj-. The "sectional character" of the bill is referred to in the placing of cotton ties on the free list, while in preparing the cotton manufacturers' schedule the majority are accused of lack of knowledge on the sub ject. Hcgardlng coal the report says: One of the most amazing propositions of the bill is that bituminous coal shall be put upon the free list, and the million of dollars per annum (almost) that we re ceive from ita Importation by way of reve nue alMoIntely thrown away. Coal has very little value save as it gets it from labor. It is worth almost nothing in tbe hill; would be worth absolutely nothing were it not for the prospect of being mined It is not a raw material, for it is not worked into any further shape, but Is con sumed and done for at once,. Kxcept for a short period It has always borne a duty. Now it is proposed to make it free. It is difficult to imagine why. It is the most universally prevalent of all the subjects of American industry. There are few states or territories that an interference with it will not alfect. There is no more splendid illustration of the l.cnelttH of our protective system than is to be found In the manufacture of plate glass. We have now m operation in this country twelve competing plants, having a capital of 12,000,000 and a capac ity ol 18,000,000 square feet annually, livery material used in the manufacture is of American production, excepting only soda ash. Eight thousand men are di rectly employed, and probably, with their families, 40,000 persons are interested in tho maintenance of this industry. Meat to an Asylum.' Atlantic City, V. J., Dec 2.
