h"ow, and Mr., ID knows, that the locoloco commit
tee of Ways and Means secuted the doctrine of pro-
lection as unconstitutional in their rcro"t-that tins re
port was so FAR approved by the ocooco party in the
House that $4,000 extra copies printed for dis
trbutlon-that McKay's bill was based upon this re-
port, and that large majority of the ocooco party
sustained that bill. With these facts in view we are
constrained to believe that the sin of dishonesty does
not lie at the doors whore Mr. Dillingham; hns put it,
For one Wing who Processes to ngree with him in
opinion he would find thousands who would indig-
nnntly hur the charge Of dishonesty at his own head
But to so on:
We never yet had Tariff, nor ever shall have
one, which has been be the work Of either
party. Look at the uct Of 1912. The wings had, in
the House Of Representatives 40 majority; 20 dem
ocrnts voted for hat act, aud yet passed but by one
majority Had the wings all voted Cor IT, the ma or-
~ would have been IS. IN the Senate, democratic

We rebut this assertion ms untrue On the passage

spectacle pebbles and glasses per centum! This is
playing the demngogue a little too boldly, man Of
Mr. DIS reputation ought to leave this dirty work TO
mon whose characters are too debased for further
degradation. The duties on jewcIry are put low In
order to the payment of any duty at ALL for if
the temptation to smugge great, the articles arc
such be readily brought in in defiance Of
tom-house officers. We believe that moderate due
ties have been considered wisest for this reason
To continue from the speech;
manufacturing and agricultural labor shares no
equality of protection. Raw hides from abroad pay n
duty of per cent, while tanned leather paws one of
30 per cent, giving the tanner six times the protec-
ton TINT is given to the labor OF the Turner who pro-
duces the raw hides"
And how think you tho locoroco bill ofthe last ses-
sion proposed to equaze the protection Why,raw
hides were left at exncty per cent and leather was
evelled TO 25 per cent giving precisely fire times
much duty upon the manufactured article as upon
the materials The leather manufacturer is Of
course injured by this reduction; but is the farmer
benefited? Certainly not: he has the same compe-
iiton from foreign hides, while the tanner can't at
ford to pay him as much for domestic hides as he
could with higher protection. !. strikes that Mr..
ID. deserves something Of hiding FOR his wretchedly
unfair mode of treating this Tariff question. We
shall not promise to give him his deserts by any
means, but intend to track him still farther in our
noxt.-.lioHipeiier TTGtchma9.

CHARLES GIBBONS, Esq. Dear Sir q: BY the

during the last summers canvass, the subject Of
the tariff etc. From these publications you will per-
ceve that the Colonel is dead out against Protection
and particularly opposed to the Distribution OF the

Tariff measure. 1t sounds strangely to who have
been accustomed 10 hear Col Polk. TO hear it stated
that he is a Tariff man, in favor Ct Protection |
have met him more than hundred and fifty
fields, and never heard him make speech in my
cnnVasses with him, that he did not denounce the
principle If Protection Indeed, this the Main

defeat me. ! was for Proection-he against il; !

Editorial Correspondence.

Clarendon Springs, July IL, 1914.
Brother Brown,-For two reasons wish
you 10 insert in connection with the pro-
ceedings of The Liberty Convention held
here yesterday, denial ftom Solomon Foot,
one If The Vermont Delegation in Congress
the last session, Of charges preferred against
him and others. The first reason for pub
fishing this is, TO do right towards the indi-
vidual and The other reason is think the
cause will better advance by treating every
man fairly, than by disappearing his acts.
Mr. Foot says the only resolution intro.
duced by Mr. Holmes of South Carolina
against the abolition movements at the
North was brought forward in February
last,-that motion was made 10 lay on the
'abls-that This motion was negalived, Mr.
Foot land others voting against the motion
to lay on the table &c.-that IN The order Of
business this resolution was not called up
during the session and that no such reso-
luton or BILL as himself and other members
from Vermont had been charged as dodg-
ing, had ever been presented.
Should any one think Mr. Foot's denial
not correct, they can refer TO the journal Ct
the House, for evidence. hope those who
furnish articles for the Voice, by way of
communications, or embody statements in
Resolutions, will ascertain the truth of their
statements, and know their eridence, before
presenting them for publication. Remem-
Der the importance of getting a statement
right and the very important ac;ompani-
ment, good eridence

S. RESOLVED, That profession of abhor-
renee 10 the institution of slavery and at the
same time voting its greatest champions into
office and power is far more pernicious in
its tendency than faith without works for
while the latter is merely 'dead,' The former
is an active principle imparling new life and
vsor to vile, oppressive, and detestable
institution.
6. RESOLVED, That the invitation of the
Wings TO the freemen of this country 10
choose between two evils is an acknowI>
edgement LIST, That they have presented an
evil for The suArages of the people in the
person of Henry Clay. 2. That they sanc-
lion the doctrine of doing evil that gvod
may come 3. That they are willing to
participate in the sin of UNFOLDING slaves
ry, duelling, and their attendant vices,
by supporting the personifcalion of these
crimes and vices for the highest office in the
gift of the people, therefore,
7. RESOLVED, That of these gross and
pal pable evils no man has the moral right
to choose either.
8. RESOLVED, That the recreant conduct
of our Representatives in Congress, in neg>
Letting to vote against the resolutions con-
Gemning all interference upon The subject Of
slavery. is practical commentary upon the
text that the Wings are favorable to ADOLF
ton, and we as their constituents call upon
them for an explanation.
The first, second and fourth of these res
olulons were commented upon by Mr. PIER
pont in speech OF an hour and half in
length, characterised for clearness and beau>
ty of illustration, and for lucid and iIretuta-
bic argument. The sentiments of the speak

audience. The exercises were enlivened
by the singing of a Hymn of the Slave by
Mr. c. Church, also Liberty Song by the

J. HoLCoMB.
We ought to obey God rather than Man.
This sentiment is embodied in resolutions
passed at the Rutland County Convention.
1t was stated that where laws conflict
with each other, the lower always yields TO
the higher. If men make laws conflicting
with the higher laws of our Creator they
must yieli to his. The law Of eternal right
and justice craven by pen Of iron upon the
human heart, must be observed as much as
if no human law came in collision with it.
The declaration that all men are 'endow-
ed with certain inalienable rights, forbids
the ownership of men, for how can one man
own another as property PERSONAL without
depriving him Of the inalienable right of lib
erty2 The common brotherhood Of the hu-
man family forbids it. The great law of
love. doing unto Others as we would that
they should do unto u.s. forbids it, for who,
that tolls hard and eats the crust OF poverty,
would exchange places with The best.fed
mental, if he were to give up his freedom Of
mind TO his master, TO be governed in all
things by the wishes of another2 What
freeman is willing to become a slave2 The
man who pretends to have rightful title to
ownership in men, does it in violation of
l,u
does 1t make difference, so far as the right
is concerned, how he came by his title to
human property. Man is not saleabe ar
ticle. His natural birthright must be stolen
from him before he can be made merchan-
die Of Whoever deprives one Of his fell
low>beings of the right guaranteed him by
his Creator, inficls a wrong upon him.
Whoever continues 10 deprive him of such
rights continues the wrong. The fugitive
escaping from his master, then, takes only
what ngh,luly belongs to him and what
unrighteousy was taken from him. Then
aiding or assisting the master in recovering
his slave' as he terms his fellow, is assist
ing in robbing the poor man If what is dear
to him as life, Ills liberty, which he never
voluntarily surrendered, and giving it TO an-
other.
But the Constitution commands the sur
render of the fugitive. Then the Consituo
ton conflicts with the laws of God which
are superior TO all human codes. The clause
Of the Constitution which tue abolitionists
have declared TO be null and void,' when
applied to fugtives from slavery, reads
thus:
mo person, held to service or labor in one
Stale, under the laws thereof, escaping into
another, shall, in consequence of any law
or regulation therein, be discharged from
such service or labor, but shall be delivered
up on claim of the party 10 whom such SER
vice or labor may be DUE
This passage was commented upon by
MIR Pierpont in very able and ingenious
manner. He spent short time upon the
letter Of this clause. The passage reads,
but shall be delivered up &c. Who shall
be delivered up? What is nominative to
shall be2 No person! No person, shall
be delivered up. Held TO service or la
5or.' The Constitution nowhere makes
mention Of such persons as slaves, and no
one could infel from this passage that such
