VOTE AGAINST SLAVERY.

So say the Third party men and we say, so mote
it be. What is it to vote against Slavery? 1t is
to vote for officers who will all proper occasions
and by all lawful means act in their official capac
ity against Slavery who will vote against it when
ever they meet it; and who viii, above all, act a.
ganst tie MEASURES through which the Slave
system is sustained. We know not of Wing
candidate who does not come fully up to this stand
ard, and who does not hold to it sincerely honest
ly, and firmly In voting for these men, therefore,
we believe we are voting against SldreJy.
But there is sort of voting about Slavery,
which is not voting against it, 1t is in voting for
your Third party men. They camor loudly, pro-
TESS strongly, and many Of them unquestionablY
feel strongly, against Slavery, and urge every one
to uote against it, but with all their talking and vo.
ting they diio,cing the Siavocracy to carry al!
their MEASURES. For specimen Of this kind
OF action against Slavery, we refer the reader to the
Green Mountain Freeman for the last few weeks
against the very measure which the Slavocracy rely
upon to secure the South and cripple the North
against the SLAVOCRATIC TARIFF OF 1876
you can find hardly one word of remonstrance OF
rebuke; yea, and you can find that very paper
copying the false and deceptive article of the great
organ of the Slavocracy, prepared and published
to sustain that measure To sustain such press
and such party is not to oppose or vote agains
Slavery.

The Washington Union long and elaborate article gor
flying Tariff Bill says that BY its Congress has
soemny Tccosnzed certain pncipes among which are tho
following:
That no should be imposed upon any article abOoe the
lotoes rate tokoh loiH yield the largest reDeRue"
such of duty shall ENCOURAGE
the imnoItaon such FoRIGN and of such
RAW enter into competition with
ducons tmly american Tariff !-BurngtOn Free Press
Yes: this was the principle avowed by Folks
message and Walkers report, and is the principle
of this bill. Precisely in this principle, the doc
trine of protection is entirely abandoned. Revenue
being made the exclusive object, it follows from
absolute necessity, that no foreign article can be
prohibited or taxed high as to exclude importa-
tons and that if the revenue will be increased by
reducing the duty and charging the importations,
the duty must be reduced In short, foreigners are
protected, and Americans are not protected; for
eigners are sure of market here, and Americans
are not since the principle of this bill requires i'm
poratons of foreign goods to get revenue, and the
largest amount Of importations at duties which will
rive the most revenue. II, for instance it shall be
found that the 80 per cent duty stops mportallons
on the cheap wool, and thus stops the revenue, the
principe of this bill is to reduce The duty SO that
this wool will be imported to the quantity that will
produce the largest revenue. OF course, the wool
growers must always have that wool in their mar
kets under this principle.

WOOLENS
TO THE AMOUNT OF
S3.2OI,25I PER ANNUM !

or nearly ONE-THlRD MORE woolens than are
now imported!
Wool growers! this is BRITISH BILL. Look
at it: the average duty on all wool which completes
with yours is at least ONE-THIRD less than I'M
der the Wing Tariff and if this were not enough
the duty on wooiens is reduced TO admit
ONE-THlRD larger importGtlous Of FOREIGN
WOOL ALREADY MANUFACTURED, as
to diminish the consumption OF American wool, re-
duce American manufactures, and cut off the de-
mand for American wool, American labor, and A.
merican articles of subsistence.
We have given you the facts as they are-fully,
fairly, honestly-without exaggerating the defects
of this bill on the one hand, and without conceal
ing whatever advantages it may have on the other
hand. Support this British bill, if you think it
best vote for the party which supports 1t, if you
believe it for your own interest or the interests of
the country: but if in your judgment it is more
consistent with your duty and more patriotic to vote
for AMERICAN INTERESTS in preference to
BRITISH INTERESTS, you will be found on
Tuesday next depositing the Wing Ticket in the
ballot-boxes.

o. In reply to the falsehood (now become such,
since the error Of the statement is persisted in a.
ganst light) of the Patriot, that the new Tariff a.
dopts the principle Of discriminating Cor protect
ion" we quoted from Polk and Walker, proving
these authors of the new Tariff to bold opinions
directly the reverse of this-holdng to "discrm-
nations for reUenue." The correctness or CO. no.
sition the Patriot dared not deny and SO 10 divert
ITS readers from misstatement which it has not the
manliness to correct, that paper resorts to the old
and base trick of disappearing the principles of
Mr.. Clay. This reminds US that some folks be-
lieve a lie well stuck to is as good as the truth"
The Patriot is mistaken, if it thinks its own read
ers will long tolerate such course. They will
feel the British Tariff in due time and pour ven
gence upon the heads of those who deceive them.

PREDICTIONS VERIFIED.

IT. 1874, the policy Of the Locoloco leaders in
Vermont was to blink almost every important meas
ure which they intended TO carry out As to the
Tariff, they were more sound than the Wings; to
annexation, they protested to be as as much oppos
ed as the Wings; and on the Sub Treasury, they
were as silent as The grave. But the Wings faith
fully, earnestly and continually warned the peo-
pic that this was Wholesale game of political
swindIing, and predicted that if Polk succeeded,
all the runous measures which had been condemn
ed in 1910 would be restored. Now mark the re-
suit
The Tariff of 1912 is repealed and Free Trcde
measure has been instituted;
Texas has been annexed, and train laid for a
still larger slice of Mexico; and
The Sub-Treasury has been restored.
These facts ought to open the eyes of the Loco
focos to the dishonesty of their leaders. T. will be
seen on Tuesday whether the people love to be
cheated. Every man will show it by his vote.

REPEAL AND VETO.

The Union threatens the PEOPLE with an Erec-
utipe Yeto, should they send delegates to the next
Congress for the purpose of repeating the British
Tariff.
Certainly: the man who vetoes Harbor bills and
appropriations to pay honest debts, in order 10 get
money to carry on Savocratic War, will also for
the same reason veto any bill repeating Tariff
which goes for getting more revenue by larger i'm
portations of British goods. This is KING VETO
the idol of sposmen, office-hoders, and spuri-
GUS Democrats. OF course there is but one way
to dethrone King Veto, and that is for the people
to say, at the alot.boxes, that they will not have
him, nor his supporters, to rule over them In c.
lecting Congressman, especially, let us have no
man who owes allegiance to King Veto-in short,
no Locofoco, for while they palaver about Democ
racy and Protection and all that sort of stuff, we
shall find them like Dillingham;, at Washington,
serya nts at the foot of the throne.

C. We cannot better illustrate the recklesness
of Locofoco eectioneerers than by relating the tact
that some honest Locoiocos have really been made
to believe that Folks Tariff is Hhig Tariff!
Aye-that this bill, framed by Locofoco Secretary,
passed by Locof0co Congress and signed by
Locofoco President, is after all the work of wicked
Wings! Such swindling as that such an mposi-
ton upon men who read nothing at all unless 1t is
the Patriot has been perpetrated not ten miles from
Montpelier Ii these deceived ones in the rank and
file of the Locofoco party con.d see themselves as
others see them e:ooed, cheated, liel into vo-
ting against their own interests, by INSCRIPTIONS
tools of their party leaders the days of Locofoco-
ism in Washington County would soon be number
cd That time we verify believe is coming The
people will feel that they have been wotuy cheat
ed ere 1915 is through.

EVERY VOTE TELLS.

There is danger, in two classes of towns, that
there will not be full vote in very strong Wing
towns where the choice of representative is not
contested, and in very weak ones where nothing is
to be expected in mere town contest But this is
not mere town election. Every vote will tell on
the State, County, and Congressional tickets; eve
ry vote may tell on THE NEXT PRESIDENT
for if there is no choice by the people in lS4S, the
Congressman now elected will have to elect that
officer. Every vote will tell, for or against your
Country, your State, and your own interests. Let
no man stay at home let none be idle, while his
neghbors think OF staying at home but let every
Wing be faithful to the cause. Sustain the excel
lent men on your State ticket; sustain your Cam
didates for Congress- every one of whom are sound
upon all the great questions which concern you -
sustain your County Senators and town represent
otives--nnd thus sustain your Country and enter
your solemn protest against those who have been
treacherous to it.

A WIIOPPER.

In the last Green Mountain Freeman we notice
in one column an appeal to Christians to sustain
the Third Party, and little way off in the same
paper stands an article worthy of the father of lies,
the Devil himself This is long article on the
annexation of Texas, purporting to detail facts. A
few facts are stated such as that Wing Congress
repeatedly refused annexation, but the concluding
statement, far as the Wing party is concerned,
is base wholesale falschood The writer asserts
that almost all The VhigS in Congress sustained an
neration! Now let us see how the votes stood on
that question.
Jam 25, lS45, the vote was taken in the House
on passing the annexation resolutions, and was as
follows:
AyEs-112 Locos, Southern Whigs-total, 100.
NOES % Locos, 20 Wings -total, %.
Feb. 81, 1915, the resolutions having been amen
ded, the vote on their passage was taken in the
Senate, and was as follows:
AYEs-2l Locos Southern Whigs-to 81.
NoEs-25, ALL WINGS, including IL from
Slave States.
1t will thus be seen that Of one hundred and six
Wings in Congress voting all but Shareholders
in the House and in the Senate, voted against
annexation and yet this organ which appeals to
Christians for support, asserts that almost all The
UhigS iCent for annexation! But one test more
After the Senate had passed the resolutions amend
ed, new and final test question was presented tt
the House on concurrng in the amendment, ant
the vote stood as follows:
AYES 1872, all locofocos.
NoEs-76 Wings and 2 locofocos.
Such were the votes actually given upon the res
olutons for the annexation Of Texas the resolu
tons under which the negotiations went on b!
which she was annexed All this, it will be oh
served, took place in lSl5-pfter the Presidential
eection-after the Third Party had contributed Il
the triumph of the Savocracy, and aided IN secu
ring verdict of the American people in favor o
annexation This verdict enboldened the locofo
cos in Congress-it was their excuse and justifica
ton for annexation; and this verdict also operate
upon that portion OF the Southern Wings who wer
with them Had it not been for third partyism, th
Wings would certainly have carried New York !
1914, and in all probability Pennsylvania, Indiana
and Michigan also; would have elected their Pres
dent by an overwhelming majority and woul
thus have secured such verdict OF the people
gainst annexation, and against the whole Slave
cratic policy, as would have prevented the foc
of nquity which has since been poured upon tt
land. These men who now falsely accuse Il
Wings are not without sin: blood is OH their skirt

THE TARIFF ON WOODEN MANUFAC-
TIRES


TURES.
Three things have been proved by tho words Of
the law of ls42, and by comparative statement
of the duties imposed by that act and the new Tar
if just passed, to wit:
]. That the wing Tariff of lS42m the 5
per cent. duty to COARSE WOOL ONLY, such
as had always been admitted free of duty previous
to that time, and such as cannot to any serious
tent compete with our wool.
g That on ALL OTHER WOOL the wing law
imposed specific duty of 8 cents per ID. and an
ad valorem, equal to 81 to 90 er cent. it thus i'm
posed duty from TO 60 PER CENT, HIGH
Err than the Polko British Tariff on all foreign
wool which does compete with Vermonters.
g. That the Tariff of 40 was carefully guarded
against frauds; and therefore, that if fine cheap
wool, such as really and seriously completes with
ours, has been suffered 10 come in at per cent, 1t
has been done by the government in manifest vio-
lation of the letter and spirit of the act of 1912.
The new Tariff is thus proved to be far less pro-
tectve to the wool-growers than the act of 1872,
SO far as it relates to all wool like our own. But
this is only one feature Of the if it is found
that the duty on WOOlENo Is also reduccu' o''u
that largely increased importotions Of foreign WOOL
ems are encouraged, the wool-growers will see, not
only that the protection to their wool is reduced,
but that new inducements are held out to foreigners
10 cut off American manufactures and thus cut
down the market for American wool. Such is m
deed the fact. To demonstrate it, we give the fol-
lowing table, prepared from the last report of tho
Secretary of the Treasury, showing the actual i'm
portations and duty on woolens in 1915 ard what
he importations must be to produce equal a
mount Of revenue under the act Of 1s46

Coon The Vermont Patriot quotes the organ
of the British Importers to show that there will be
no frauds under the new Polko-B British Tariff
Frauds from the Yorkshire men Such thing
was never dreamed of by them. These fellows
don't know the word fraud; but only give one Of
them halter and he'll Gnda horse" Polk has Civ
en- them the hater and in about two years, when
the wool-growers find an increase of some four OF
five millions in British woolens, they will find tina,
the honest British Yorkshiremen have stolen theil
best horse

o. The locos of the third district have had
second edition of the locofoco state convention-
At their convention at Burlington on the 18th, Ho-
mer E. Hubbell, Esq, was nominated for Congress;
but when the convention came to talk about reSo-
luionS, it was found that the locofocracy couldn't
agree about the Tarlf-and so they had no resolu-
tons at all. Couldn't agree-eh! 1t is certainly
wonder to see them disagreeing with the Patriot,
Sentinel, &c. &c. Well, very well: if some of
the Locos of Washington County do not get the
scales knocked off from their eyes ere the British
Tariff has worked two years, won't guess again.

MUSLIN DE LANES

Under the Wing Tariff of 1912, this new branch
of WOODEN manufacture was springing up on a large
scale. The company at Manchester, N. f., has
just got its factory up, capable of working nearly
half million dollars worth of wool per annum.-
Orders TO purchase 10 the amount of 100000 had
been given out, but were counermanded when the
Polko-British Tariff passed. According to the u
nion the duty on this article is reduced one halt!
No wonder these new manufactures countermand
their wool orders. N. B. The Patriot says this bill
gives three times as much protection to wool-grow-
as the Tariff of 1912.

o. The Freeman urges the third party to nom
mate candidates in every town. For what? To
divide and defeat those who are coniending against
the great sLAVOCRATIC MEASURES which
distinguish the present Administration Be-
ware of these divisions, if you hope for salvation
and safety to the Free States. Third partyism has
already enough to answer for in the annexation Of
Texas, and the Mexican War let it not now be-

Above all let no Wing again be led astray. If the

O. When Gen. Scott said that no great opera
ions could be safely counted upon in Mexico until
autumn, the I.ocos abused the old veteran immeas-
uraby Now mark the facts volunteers have been
sent to Mexico by thousands, at an enormous ex-
pense, but for want of boats and wagons there is
use for the volunteers and they are returning.-

ons in .NeV York, .NeO Jersey and Massachusetts, TO

The extensive wooden mills of Edward Denny
of Barre, Mass have been reduced to half ,cork in
consequence of the new Tariff. Aye --ony half
the demand for Yankee wool, and laborers, and p;o-

foreign wool, foreign labor, and foreign provisions
That's the way the Polk party protects the farmers

WOOL,

We understand that the market price for wool in
Montpelier is now about 20 cents per ID. and few
buyers at that. Never mind let the ol-growers
of this county keep straight forward in their course,
voting the I.ocofoco ticket, as many Of them have
done in years past. If they like the fruits, we
hope they will stick to their text until they get
enough of it. We don't ask man of them to
come over to the sound Wing doctrine until he
has had experience enough to make the conversion
lasting.

on the strength of it to cheat The agricultural in

is, that protection TO American Manufactures is of
no advantage TO the farmers A single fact is suf-

least two thirds consist of the material used,
and usually raised from the soil, the provisions fur

chiefly from the farm.houses. 1t follows, therefore,
