CARD FROM ARCHBISHOP Sp,,n,Sc

CARD FROM ARCHBISHOP SpALp1SG.
Archbishop Spalding, of Baltimore,
has sent to the press the following
CARL in relation to the funds which.
ut his suggestion, have been collected
in the Catholic churches of the Mary
land Diocese, and which he has caused
to be distributed among the suffering
people Of the South, without distinc-
ton OF creed. The sum of $12, 500,
thus raised and disbnrsed, speaks
well for the liberality of the people
of Maryland and their warm sympa-
thy for the Southern people. The
card is as follows:
"The Archbishop of Baltimore,
having already distributed among the
destitute of the South, without dis
tinction of creed, nearly the entire

lies of Maryland, bcgs to inform his
numerous patrons of the fact, and to
state further 10 them, and to others
similarly destitute, that he has been
kindly permitted by the lady officers
of the great Southern Relief Fair,
now going on with every prospect of
success III Baltimore, to refer all ap-
pllcatlons to them for the favorable
consideration Of the proper persons
on the close of the fair. Their Of
ticers are rs follows: President, Mrs.
Benjamin &. Howard, 900 North

BOLDLY SPOKEN The New York
World recently made the following
bold and patriotic declaration. We
commend it to the consideration of
all those in the North and West who
hesitate as to the position they should
occupy in the present fearful struggle
between the radicals and the Pre-
sident. Surely no Southern man
can or will hesitate:
''For our part, we forget all men Is
antecedents; we have no question to
ask of any politician or of any citi-
zen, whether he is for or ayninst the
Presidents constitutional policy of
reconstruction. OF all courageous
supporters of the President, we are
the friends; of all his opponents,
whether open or insidious, we are
the declared enemies. We will have
no pickering with any man who can
stand fire without fiinching, and will
courageausly do, dare and suAer for
the Constitution bequeathed us by
our fathers, interpreted as our fathers
understood it, But we have scourge
of scorpions for all alse-hearted or
craven-hearted men, who, like Sena-
tor Stewart, cooperate with the radi-
Gals to overthrow the Constitution ="

Protection.

The protection humbug, that high
prices for protected manufactures
mean high prices for farmers pro-
ducts, and so high wages for work
men, is very old 1t was long ago
exploded by Say, the great French
economist, who said:
"The evidence examined before a
committee of the House of Commons,
of England. in 1915, leads to the
conclusion that the high price Of food
at that period had the effect of de-
pressing rather than clevating the
scale of wages. I have myself, re-
marked the similar effect of the scarci-
ty, in France, OF the years 1911 and
1917. The difficulty of procuring
subsistence, either forced more Ia
borers into the market or exacted
more exertion from those already en-
gagged, thus occasioning temporary
glut of labor"
And upon this topic the F'i,"o,ciul
Chronicle makes these sensible re-
marks, fitting the truth to our present
time:
"Our present condition is very
similar to that of England ut the time
alluded to by Mr. Say. Like causes
have contributed to raise prices, and
in the same way must high prices
tend to put down wages Any resist
ance to this inevitable tendency
through strikes can only entail loss
upon the operatives, first by retard-
ing the fall III prices, and next by
depriving them for a period of their
customary earnings. BY conscnting
to n reduction of wages corresponding
to the fall in prices, the operative will
have the double gain of cheaper com
modities and constant employment.
'Paradoxical rs it may seem, it is
nevertheless true that the laborcrs
themselves would be greatly benefited
by fall in wages. Operatives appear
to forget that they are consumers
nearly to the same extent rs they are
producers. If they increase the cost
of production through high wages,
they so far necessitate an addition to
their own expenditures The work
ing man can never possibly he bene-
fitted by high prices, and hence he
should offer no opposition to any fair
proposition for reduction of wages.
Indeed, the tendency of high prices
is always to beget low wages

during the week ending March %,
reached the large number Of 1856, 7Gl

surprising that prices gave way under
them. The only wonder is that the
fall was not greater Tie bulk of
