AN ANTI-TARIFF ARGUMENT,

Some OF our brethren of the Press in
order to bolster up the tariff of 1916 resort
to, not only extraordinary arguments, but
extraordinary calculations to support them.
Our friends of the Berks County Press, in
reply TO one of its neighbors makes the fol-
lowing terrible onslaught on the protective
policy
80 show the extreme stupidity Of the
Journal and the shallowness of lis humbnr
| OF a Home Market, TO gull and deceive its
| readers, we ask the attention Of the public TO
The following fact last year the Farmers Of
The United States produced, il is estimated,
over I26, 6,000,0 600 bushels OF wheat Our pop.
ulation is over 10000, 900, which would eire
10 each man tromaa and child in Hm Union,
SI3ff-THREE BUSHELS! Can the big
gesl iron-master in Pennsylvania eat 63 bn-
shells OF wheat in yearT and as he cannot,
how vain Is II for the minnows and tom.iits
OF The Journal to assert that they can con-
sumo tins amount The yield for the present
year Is much greater than il was last year,
yielding at the lowest calculation 100 bushels
Tor each inhabiant. Does not this show that
the Farmer cannot depend upon the Home
Market alone for the sale Of his produce. and
yet these Tariff wise-acres and most consun.
mate Jack-asses, these second Daniels ex.
Founders OF whig tariff doctrines, are ass,olx-
ousty tabortng, in their modness, to destroy not
on.y The Foreign Market, bm also the Home
Market. This would be the certain result of
their insane twaddfe upon the Tariff.
This is formidable array of figures it is
true, and although "6gures wont lie" them
selves, they are sometimes wonderfully be-
lied. And this, unfortunately for friend
Myers, is the case in this instance. Ac-
cording TO our arithmetic the result will be
little over 81 bushels instead of 63 BUSH
els. Six bushels per head is the usual esti-
mate of consumption, "big iron masters and
Jackasses" included, and 100 bushels per
head for 90 millions Of people would make
in the aggregate 1000 millions of bushels,
enough to feed the whole world. Now as
friend Myers has based his arguments upon
this arithmetical assumption, thereby indu-
cling him to apply various naughty epithets
to us tariff men, we trust he will retract
and put the boot on the right leg.

BEAUTIFUL THEORY.

The Harrisburg Keystone copies from the
Washington Union, letter over the sigma
ture Of "a Pennsylvania Iron Masters in
favor ofthe tariff Of is46. We take from
the letter the following beautiful extract, for
the purpose Of showing how easily man
may sometimes teidte his own position by
the sbsurdlty OF his statements
n propose now TO submit plain statement
Of facts, which they kno,c 10 be true, and which
are conclusive with me; that II Ia the in crest
of the Pennsylvania iron.masters 10 oppose
any change in our present tariff.
The cost OF manufacturing pig iron from
anthracite coal, varies from si2 to SIS per
ton. To get to The Philadelphia market, sell.
dom costs over So and large quantities are
are daily thrown into Philadelphia for one
dollar per ton making the whole cost TO
ronmasers from Si3 10 SIP
Now the fact is, experience has demon.
strairdthat in the most favorable locations,
good Anthracite iron can not be made for
less than about Sl5 per ton, and the trans
portation from three-fourth of the Furnaces,
will average from SO to S4 per ton, inde-
pendent Of storage commissions &C., which
this patriotic Iron Master has put down at
81 TO swell the cost of British iron, but
omitted itin regard to the American article,
as if there was no charge for hauling
storage and commissions oh American iron.
The freight from England, he puts down at
S4, when 1t is often brought from Liver
pool as ballast, at 50 per ton. 1t is not the
amount of duty that we complain of, as
much as the ad valorem system, which,
even, according TO this writer, has enabled
the "Britsh manufacturers to play game''
which he thinks they will soon grow tired
of--like the cat we presume, playing with
the mouse, when she has worried to death.

II The Harrisburg keystone urges upon
the Canal Commissioners the proprie,y of Ia
king into their own hands, the carving of
passengers over the Columbia Rail Road.
The state, i, appears, has a capital of about
Si,Ooo,ooo, in this road, and car owners
abeu, $4,000. The State receives for The
use OF her road and motive power about
81 "a per passenger, from Lancaster to Phil
adelphia, and the car owners nearly 81 90.
This division is about equal to that of the
Monkey with the Cats. We have heard the
Canal Commissioners on more than one oc.
cason complain of this imposition, and of
their Intellectual attempts to amend it, The
company has many rays Of operating on the
members of the legislature, 80 as not 10 inter.
fere with their Interests.

THE TARIFF ISSUE.

The editor of the Snubury Gazette, taking
his cue from the Washington Union and
Pennsylvanian on all leading subjects. finds
ii necessary 10 show its fealty 10 the powers
That be, by endorsing the vapid nonsense of
these papers, on the subject of the tariff
To claim the election of Mr.. Gamble as an
anll'tariff victory, is the sheercst piece of
presumption that we have seen for some time.
During the late canvass the editor of the Ga.
zette was as quietas the grave upon this SUBJ
Ject. We confess that we were therefore
surprised, tha, i, should refer to the alleged
passage of a resolution in favor of the tariff
OF 1916 at the late County Convention, in
proof Of this assertion
The truth is, the editor of the Gazette, be.
ing himself a candidate, had 10 our certain
knowledge, no particular desire 10 see this
resolution in print. His free-,rade principles,
so obnoxious TO the people of this county, had
very nearly swamped him as i, was, and had
this resolution been placed on his shoulders
as an additional burhen, it would have sunk
him so deep that the hand of resurrection
could never have reached hun
