Tree Trade and Prosperity.
Beachs SIN, Of yesterday, at the c!o7e OF Oh
article on the Chamber Of Commerce ana INC
Tariff controversy therein, makes the following
audacious assertions
" W. a., cur business men 70 reiec, ;hs EeT.fcfk IS

h4rcs g7o7 Free Trade. With restrictions upon ifad'
or C has c,,rrys tacn does fall AID VIII continue -
aIl with freedom 81 trade she has Arrays sen COS Ie'
and will rise."
It is easy TO talk like the above on any subject !;
and alas there arc those who will swallow such
assertions for arguments. But there are people
,ybo arc not satisfied with bald assertions; and
these know that if our City ever enjoyed ten years
Of prosperity they we're those Intervening between
1925. ,yhcn the Protective Tariff Of 1924 began
10 DC felt, and 1885, when the reduction OF Du-
ties under the Compromise Tariff of 1893 began
likewise to be felt. During those ten years OF
Protection she more than doubled in population,
,yeal;h and business when did she ever do better
,ladcr Free Trade
It's easy to say that New York is dependent
upon Forcign Trade alone but who does not
know better Who docs not know that the Do
mcstic productions sold or exchanged In Ncw.
YORK greatly exceed IN value the Foreign thai,
the trade in Sugar, for instance, is not circum
ecrbed by our buying from Louisiana instead OF
the Indies that tle fabrics OF Lowell are the
basis of business and profits here well as those
OF Leeds and Sheffield Above all, what practl-
cal man docs not realize that the foundation OF
all substantial trade is a well employed well pad
Home Industry, creating the ability 10 buy =
While the Country is prosperous and wealthy.
Trade is ever brisk and profitable; when the re-
verse is the case, Trade dwindlcs, and like self
righteousness, the more you have Of 1t the worse
for you. Prcpostcrous base is the ATTEMPT to
separate the interests Of New York from those Of
our whole Country.
VrrGrSIA-Thc Shcrifis did not meet to com
pare polls IN the Richmond District on Monday,
50 we cannot say positively who has the return,
but we suppose it will 90 to Mr.. Jones. The
Wing says that in such case Mr. Bolts will CON
test. with - confidence of success We should
show this confidence did we not know what kind
OF a House will pass upon the question.
We cannot vet tell who has the return from the
Norfolk District. VIC apprchend, however, that
Mr.. Atkinson, Loco, will get it by three major
ty. day or two will tell
Mr. Goggin, who has been swindied put of the
re},,rp IN, tho frandrlnnt kerninn of the Polls
49,, :. senc and Madison, surely ought to contest.
u that he had 50 majority at the close Of
~ .irst days voting.
Apart from these three dubious Districts, the
Wings have elected three Members to the next
Congress-W'illoughby Newton, Samuel Chiffon,
and George W. Summers while the Locos have
cight-Gcorgc c. Dromgooie, Walter Coles, Ed
mund w. Hubbard, William Lucas, William Tay-
Tor, A. A. Chapman, Geo. w. Hopkins, and Lew
is Sieenrod; and Capt. Tyler onc-Hcnry a,
Wise. Far play would have given us five of the
fifteen Members, which, considering that our ad-
versarics cut out the Districts 10 subscryo their
own ends, is doing well.
