| The Ea&n or party that sapposes shAt
tbs freaneu Of the Northwest will, fol
any leagth Of time, bear tbs Infamous
odioaa, and outrageous axactaons og ths
Morrill, taxiH, will bs awaksnad - II By
the grumbling OF an earthquake. Tha
people Of the Northwest are ovsgwheim
ingIy 81 agricultural aad consuming peo.
ple- They are willing and proadly ahls
10 pay their equal and just proportion oi
the tax necessary to an economical admin
isEzasion of the general government. But
they will never submit to be made hswsrs
of wood aud drawers OF water for Eastern
capitalists and eotton-spining Nsbobs.--
They viii not consent to be robbed oi
their honest earnings to fatten Eastern
manufacturers. They know we'll that the
whole tax imposed by q tariff comes oH
| the consuming classes and thAa by the
most odious OF taxes they are compelled
TO pay three times IS much to the Eastern
manufacturers as bounty, - they 90
their governmsat. They are net 90 Raeh
nam-skalls as to suffer their common GOV
ernment to compel them to pay an annu-
al tribute of ffty to one hundred millions
OF dollars 70 Eastern capitalists. New
England may dslude "a for ssaaoa By
the everlasting negro; she may dissolve
the Union By her insane dogmss aad reck-
less Prosecutors but she viii fad tag-
rihle reckoning 70 mset when she attempts
to take millions Of tribute from the pock-
els OF the hard-6sted farmers and labor
ing men of the Northwest. They have
sal l.. AZ "a Al
great ''nigger dispute'' by their infaus-
Qua Fsbili of denominations ~ but their
victory will but seal their doom forever.
The West henceforth will demand d tar
iff On luxiries alone, and refase TO have
her labor pay tribute to ths East ander
the aimsy inguise Of a tariff The East
hereafter must support itself as the West
does-on its own money and its own la
Dor. They need net hope 70 tar as TO do it.
The old woEn-oat and thrsadhars soph-
istries about high tarifs making low
goods and the bug bear Of "direcE taxa
tien" will move IA never MI inch. The
world has grown largely In the lass ewau-
ty years, and such oat-of- fashion gax-
meats will no longer ft. We may expect
the Chicago Tri6Hae and other journals
which take every Inspiration of life from
Massachusetts, aad the thousand and
and one petty sheets which can be bought
ap By the money Of the misunderstanding
interests of the East, to blAkhar and bleat
about protecting home industry bat this
viii only render the tariff ssilE more
oaious. We nean 10 pretscs eur home
industry from ell exactfons, not only from
Old England, bus all other Englands
and car sshome industry ID tins aissdas-
Try and Laber of ths Rsgfhasas.n We do
not mean to call Eastern labar oar labor
and then protect 1t by making Western
labor pay its money 70 Gil Ito pocks&s.--
We do moe desire 10 be protested ouKasl-
salEss By taxing money out ef ths poek-
cts of Eastern labor, and putting 1t into
our own; nor do we Intend to let them
rob us. Nor will ehe West be humbua-
ged By The cry Of adirect taxsSion.s We
pre4ar 20 have one dollar taken haasssly
and boldly out of her righs- hand packet
to support oar government, than 10 have
chioroform elappsd TO oar nose and Ave
dollars stolen oat OF our lafs poekas.
The grand battle of Wssssra labor
against Eaatarn monopolies and bognties

Let tho true frisnds Of tha Northwest
