pennsylvania and the Tariff.

In Pennsylvania the masses, without
distinction Of party, are the friends of the
protective system; and their Senators and
Representatives in Congress knowing this
fact, did their utmost TO save the tariff Of
1912, which had been fairly and fully
tested and found adequate to the peoples
wants and desires. Bnt ONE traitor to
her interests was found in Pennsylvania 5
delegation, and him we leave in the hands
This constituents, who viii no doubt at
the proper time rebuke his treachery by
permitting him to retire to the shades OF
private like. There are other men, how
ever. who are anxious for seats in Con-
gress, whose views and purposes in re-
gard to a protective Tariffare not very
clearly understood, and who may expect
TO be called on to "toe the mark" on that
question before the people will cast their
votes for them. OF this number, we pre-
sumo, is Mr. Weyand, ofthis DISTRICT,
who has not yet publicly ''defned his pc
sition."

The Duty on wool.

We observe that the Locofoco papers
continue TO copy the fraudulent statement,
first put forth by Folks official paper, pla-
eng the duty on wool at 5 per cent un-
der the Tariff Of 1912, and at 80 per
cent under the Act of 1916. They owe
il to the public TO correct the mis-staie-
ment; and unless they wish to deceive
their readers, they VIII make that correc-
ton without delay. Here are the facts:
By the Act Of 40 the duty on all wool
worth over : cents per pound ranged from
IS to 20 per cent, according to value,
while under the Act of 40 it Is 80 per
cent.
