to-day eminenty question OF protection 10 the
grower of wheat than the manufacturer of any fabric
Mr.. MOORHEAD PENN argued generally that the
amount OF duty laid articles had not the effect Oh H.
ceasng their cost illustrating tho argument by the asser
ton that squares steel cheaper now than they were
when the duty was less.

Mr. DAWES referred TO cut nails that within the reeol-
lection Of Mr. aings life under the influence Of the
protective principle cut nails had fallen in price until
they purchasabe for onefourth OF what they
cost fifteen years ago. Had not been for protection the
people Of this country would be to-day dependent upon
England and the old prices would have TO be paid. Under
the system Of protection competition had sprung up and
brought the simple article of cut nails down TO onefourh
Of would have been had frectrade been encour-
aged and the monopoly Of the market left to England
The principle the in regard TO every other art-
Gle The Tariff Bill could be framed Of two prn-
cips aone-on the principle Of laying the duty on the
raw material Of laying the manufactured article.
The effect of the tariff must be one Of two things IL
must bring in the manufactured article, or It must bring
in the abOrer himself Ii must import the aborer or the
labor The article be manufactured this side Of
the the other side II the other side the
sborer will stay there If this side, the aborer will
here and enrich the country, the gentlemans Hard
ngs) State than any other part. IL Illinois wanted
wealth. she must have aborers; and laborcs she could
have II she would permit them 10 have employment
this side of the water rather than the other He de-
fed the gentleman any else TO form system OF
tariff any other than one OF these two principles.
