manufacturers, with a view to the destrue-
ton Of our industrial enterprises, so as to
open a market to the cheap productions Of
foreign pauper labor The disastrous re-
suits of an unsteady, fuctuatiug policy in
regard to import duties has been SO often
demonstrated in lis effect upon our manu-
featuring industry that there ought to be
but little difficulty in showing to our legis
lators the imperative necessity fer the adop-
ton Of well defined and permanent pro-
tectiye policy. Even moderate duties if
preserved through a series Of years, would
enable our manufacturers Of every kind to
invest their capital in extensive enterprises
from which they now keep serupulously
aloof, because they have no guarantee Of
any consistent policy Of protection. and are
liable after heavy expenditure to see all
their plans frustrated and their prospects
blighted by a sudden throwing open Of our
markets to the competition of the pauper
labor Of Europe, with which all well inform
ed men know our manufacturers cannot
compete, unless the wages of our own peo
pie are reduced to a level with that of Eu
ropean paupers To such measures no sane
American win commit himself unless be
wishes our country 10 be made a nation of
paupers James Buchanan announced him
self in favor Of this policy in his famous TEN
CENTS A DAY speech, because he knew it
must be the inevitable result of the free
trade policy which he advocated and which
the Democratic party advocate yet That
speech made him justly odious to every in
teliigeul American laborer, yet it was an
honest statement of what must be the result
of the adoption of the Democratic free trade
idea, Let Congress give US the assurance
Of a consistent protective policy, and a tariff
/ high enough to afford fair wages to laborers
and q reasonable profit to capitalists, and it
viii DO more than any other possible legis
lation to promote the general aud continued
prosperity of the whole country, assure the
payment Of our national debt, and secure

We are already annexing Canada to the
United States in q quiet way. Since the ex-
piration of the Reciprocity Treaty and the
organization of the new dominion, business
has grown dull, times hard and tue people
dissatisfied. Many, though anxious for an
nexation, are impatient Of the slow progress
making in that direction and pack their
goods ard annex themselves by crossing
the border and becoming citizens of the
United States. A steady stream of Cana
dian immigration has existed for some time
and is daily increasing. No better argu-
ment could be wished for the repeal Of the
so called reciprocity treaty. While it lasted
our OWN people went to Canada because it
gave Canadians greater advantages and bet
ter business facilities than our own citizens
For ainiiar reason since It's expiration our
people have ceased to 60 to Canada and the
Canadians are coming to US because they
