MR.. CLAY AND THE TARIFF.

Though Mr.. Clay is not, strictly speaking,
the Father of the Protective Policy. which
owes its birth, as we have lately shown. to
the First Congress of the United States. he
has been justly so styled in the seuse in
which humane man is said to have been a
father to lrlend!ess and neglected child
whom he has taken under his care and reared
to manhood
Ii is with surprise that we can hardly ex-
press that we have learnt, from a publication
recently made, that there are persons who so
far misunderstood, or pretend to misunder-
stand, MIR. Clay's truly patriotic and states
manlIke views, as to regard him as a friend to
the Manufacturing interest to the exclusion of
other interests of his country, and to the ex-
clusion especially Of the Agricultural inter
est
The existence Of so entire misaprrehen-
sion can only be accounted for from the fact,
that, as the Register Of Debates does not 90
down below the date of December, 1924, Mr..
Clay's greatsPeech upon the Tariff question.
delivered before that date, in which he demon.
strated the policy and the necessity of further
protection by discriminating duties upon i'm
ports in favor Of the products of American
Agriculture and Manufactures, for the direct
and Immediate benefit of the farmer, is acces-
sible to comparatively few persons and that
thus, bold IN impunity, Mr.. CIay's aGversaries
have attributed TO him sentiments to which
he is an utter stranger, and put language into
his mouth Of an import directly opposite to
any that he has ever uttered
To put Mr.. Clay right before the country
in this particular, we have looked up the
speech in question, by which he earned the
title OF Father of the Protective System from
which speech we make the subjoined extracts,
which we consider well worthy, at the pre-
sent moment, of every readers attention

Clerk Of the Board of Sup. of Racine Co

The Racine Advocate thinks we have done or eat
injustice to Mr. Baker. If we have we regret it,
but we think the Advocate is somewhat disposed to
magnify the importance of what we said. With
regard to the Washington mission, we attributed
all improper motives to MIR. Baker friends rather
than himself. AS to the matter of the printing, it
is not important to the pc ople generally what were
the motives influencing members. It's personal
matter, and unless driven into it we have no wish
TO discuss tpubIlcly. We give the article from the
Advocate, entire:
CHARLES NJ. BAKER.-The editor of the
Southport Telegraph, in his las: number,
charges that Charles NJ. Baker, Esq, OF
Walworlh county, was actuated as legisIa
tor, by no patriotic or disinterested views.
but on the contrary, by low and selfish
motives. We much regretted to see this
We have been personally acquainted with
Mr.. Baker since l335-which vas several
years before he came 10 this Territory
and had know him number of years be
fore, by reputation. We have seen him
in all situations in life, and we kHom that
as citizen, as friend, as legislator,
aRd ia all the relations OF HE, he is one Of
Gods nobleSt works. We no, only have
oeser have heard a suspicion against his
integrity before, but have often and uni
formly heard him spoken Of as a scrupuIous-
Nv conscientious man As To the transac-
ton deferred To- by The Teleg aph. we are
wcE acquainted With it; and we know that
Mr.. Baker is face from all blame or Just
ImputaiIon-
We woIld always take more care and
pleasure in speaking we'll Of honest public
men, than i'll of dishonest The latter is
an unpleasant duty. Highly pure, patri
otto aod disintesed men in public office,
are rare In the country; and if their gooc
qualities are not appreciated, # their mo
tr~es are traduced, Il an indlSc riminale
censure treats the good and bad alike, they
will be stiff rarer. Such men are sensi-
tive on such points-as they wish to be
beyond the reach of SANDER and maigni;v
We are confident that the editor Of the

Bakers character, and that if he was
better acquainted with ii, he would ack nowl
