Protection. @ ~
Protectionists are accustomed to cite
England as a model of wisdom,-she
having protected her manufactures, &C.,
for nearly three hundred years. True,
she was not satisfied until she had
thrown her protecting" arm over al
most every kind of industry, including
not only the needy knife maker and the
NEEDY knife grinder" but the landlord,
the kelp gatherer and the corn grower.
She protected herself up to the verge of
ruin. Everybody was so thoroughly
protected that nobody was doing we'll
or satisfied. At length, famine stalked
abroad over the land. Such was the
condition of things thirty years ago. In
many manufacturing towns nearly
half the people were suffering from
restitution. In 1912 they walked the
streets by thousands, having nothing to
do. In Stockport three thousand houses
were closed; in Manchester attempts to
collect rents we're futile; in Carlisle
one.fourth Of the people were clamoring
for food everywhere linen diapers were
selling only remnants to patch old clothes;
bakers were disposing Of bread by the
half.penny provision dealers no longer
threw away the outside scraps, but kept
them to pacify beggars; and traders in,
many instances, were offering premium
to poor people who would emigrate from
country SO thoroughly protected. Such
was the stimulus which protection gave
to industry in the mother country thirty
years ago. If any one thinks we have
overdrawn the picture Of protective mis-
cry, let him read Miss Martineau's His
tory of England from 1916 to 1854.
England, one hundred, two hundred,
three hundred years ago, did many
stupid deeds. She protected even re-
ligion. Under James III. and many
earlier kings she protected" the Cath
Ollie religion; under many kings and
queens since, she has protected the Pro-
testant religion. Even to-day the poor
peasants are obliged to be taxed to aid
in supporting set of wild, fox-hanting
curates. Religion is so protected that
it is about as dead in the Establishment
as trade was in the manufacturing towns
in 1912. What England wants, what
every nation ought to have. is not only
freedom to worship God, but freedom
to pay for such worship as is most ac-
ceptable to the worshipper; and freedom
to buy from other nations any thing
and every thing that We can produce
only at higher price.
England, like some kittens, was slow
in getting her eyes open. The protect
i've system prevailed there something
like two centuries before clear, strong
utterance was heard against it. The
year we declared our independence,
Adam Smith sdeclared" against the
folly, the madness Of protection Exch.

If the question of sWoman Suffrage
be a great one, we boldly aver that never
since the creation has a great question
been discussed in such small way, and
that too upon either side. In Chicago,
the Rev. DR.. Hatfield, arguing in his pull
pit against the reform, declares ''that as
many men suffer from the effects of wo-
mans tongue as women suffer from drunk
en- husbands" Begging pardon Of the
Reverend Doctor, we ask leave to say that
this does not touch the question at all !;
and, moreover, it cannot, as matter Of
fact, be true. Not o1ly have the shrewish

Grated, but sufferers can run away from

MOnOpOItes.

A struggle is impending between the people at
large and the gigantic corporations which are
springing up on every hand. This coast has
been cursed with monopolies from the first, but
the combinations heretofore existing are insig-
niiicant in comparison with those which are
now demanding that everything be made subser-
Went to their interests The time is fast ap-
preaching when unless the people are fully
awake to the condition of affairs, that railroad
corporations will dictate the policy and legisla-
tion not only of this State, but of the United
States. 1t was apparent to the most superficial
observer that the late Legislature by
the Central Pacific. We don't say that the ma
jorty of the honorables were under pay, but it
looked very much like it. AT any rate they
voted to suit the railroad men. The railroad era
is just commencing in this State and we already
see the influence possessed by railway managers.
They are just beginning to make their power
manifest Unless checked by the people, the
supreme power in the land, every interest will
be made to contribute TO their aggrandsement.
Take the experience of other sections. 1t is no
misnomer to speak of the State of Camden and
Amboy. The railroad company bearing that
title has for years dictated New Jersey legisla-
lion, and it has been the standing and truthful
boast of their President that he "carried the
Legislature in his breeches pocket" That one
of these corporations can count its employees by
the tens of thousands in a single State is preg-
nant fact. In many sections the railroad inAu-
ence is supreme. No member of the Legislature
can he elected without their aid, and conse-
quenuy none but their obsequious tools are
chosen. The coming struggle is foreseen and a
timely warning is being given by leading indie
pendent journals that have the general welfare
at heart and cannot be subsidized In this
State the Sacramento Union has sounded the
note Of alarm. We have had occasion to notice
that the railroad organs charge the Union with
malice. 1t does not matter what motives may
octuate that paper its statements on that subject
are nevertheless true, and should receive ser
attention. 1t is a maxim that "corpora
tons have no souls, and it might well have
been added, no politics either. Through the
Erie railroad few men have been able to con.
troll the politics OF New York and determine its
political complexion This vast influence was
exercised of course for their individual profit
and advancement. To expect any thing else
would be sheer nonsense. The Central Pacific
was national necessity. 1t has been built with
out any expense to its protector. More thar
this, they have divided millions among them
These facts give the public right to compaa
of overcharges, and afford good ground for COM
plant when they seek to intermeddle with and
disturb the progress of legislation. There is but
one way to slay the rapacity of the wealthy
railway companies, and that is at the balot-box.

posiou, and as the dailes have had detailed ac-
counts which you will see, the news would be
almost too stale for publication by the time this
reaches Weaverville.
The labor movement still attracts unusual at
tention. A great meeting of unemployed was
held last night at the Pavilion and addresses de-
livered by Winn and Pixley. The only conclu-
sion arrived at that the times were every
where fearuy ont of joint, and especially in
San Francisco. The most sensible and original
remedy was that propounded last Sunday, by an
unknown individual, at Dashaway hall. He
thought that good pes:ilence, two or three
fierce wars and an occasional famine would do
an immense amount of good. The world was
too crowded, and the sooner some of us were
hustled off to eternity the better it would be for
the remainder. Possibly good logic, but l am
afraid we should all want to be the remainder.

Justics is slow and uncertain that very few are
punished, and never one executed. Where the fault
is none can say. Even the murder of little Mag
gle Ryan, which a short time ago created such
excitement, is now forgotten, though it is very
likely that the extreme penalty of death will in
this instance be inflicted on her infamous slayer.

In this respect don't think Californians are
any better off than others where times are not

NETWORK DAILY TRIBUNE, TUESDAY FEBRUARY Is. 1879.

The exercise Of ample powers may, never
theless, be more welcome to the Government
than any prerogative il has welded In the last
two years, and might have been az welcome
wear ago. The Constitutional rule to which
Mr.. Seward declared the Mexicans had returned
has been seldom so apparent as the cOnstltu-
tional want of it. TO mend matters, the blind
pronounccrs are jumping into another revolu-
tfonarv bramble- bush to scratch in again their
Constitutional eyesight
The fever of anarchy which now so fercely
assails the remaining life of the Mexcans as a
self governing people is felt in all quarters OF
its territory. We cannot name State where
robbery and poverty are not subjects OF com
plant, and we can count by the dozen those where
pronuncamentos Of one character or another
have occurred Surprising that every robber
is q pronOuncer and every pronouncer Is q
robber, the number of those arrayed
against Mexican society in open Champion
ship of fraud and rapine must be
almost as large, to speak moderately, as That
which society can bring against them. fact
of this kind repeated in substance in every
days news, sounds fippantly enough in the
telling, but is dreadful in the acting. Worse
than all is the doubt that the loyalty which
has given birth to such monsters as Canto,
and the policy which has blundered into the
crime of Durango can do much more for
Mexico than represent what her abilities might
be if they were only honest
But in such conditions Of total misfortune as
that of Mexico, we may have to expect that
any Government which undertakes to represent
her individual life will represent her crimes as
well as her talents and her virtues. The wide
spread national poverty, the quenchless and
bOttomless misery of that country, will never be
quite conceived; nor do the Mexicans them
selves realize it, Murder has become dread
ful child's-play to the pronouncers, and life on
the road seems to be worth about what it kills
for The rate at which highwayman values
life bears steady proportion to the rate of
honest wages and they amount to little. 1t
would be surprising if where life, by stress
of poverty, robbery, and assassination, is
so cheap, the Government Of Mr. Juarez could
stay its hand from shooting. The public will
look for more executions before the present
crisis is done; and Mr. Juarez and Mr.. LerdO
may be too busy to see that their sword Is
adapted for cutting both ways. They are brave
men, and in one sense extraordinary; but in such
a whrlwind as that of Mexico talents and
astuteness may go for nothing. To ride such
storms moral courage was long ago needed,
and the country of Juarez is and has been
singularly deficient in that virtue What the
next drama of Mexico will be it would be vain
to predict /; yet, as the pronouncer Negrete has
decreed the death of Juarez and his Ministers,
one tragic hint at least will be borne in mind.

The devil that did it is fully exposed in the
rum sellers testimony in the case of the killing
by William Chambers of ID. S. voorhees,, IN
Brooklyn, on Sunday night There is supposed
to be o law against the sale of liquor on Sun
day; but it seems that Mr.. Voorhees, and some
friends early in the evening came into the
liquor shop and asked for bottle of wine, got
it and drank it; then another and another,
and so on until no less than seven bottles
had been drunk by three or four persons.
Now seven bottles of wine is pretty large allow
ance for twenty persons; but these seven drank
it all down. The result was that in sudden
fit of rage or delerium tremenS one OF the
rash drinkers murdered one of his COM
panons. 1t is painful and conspicuous case of
the tendency of rum or winedrinking. Is the
tragedy to be followed by a hasty examination
and turning loose of the acknowledged muir

IN AMENDE HONORABLE.

During the past twelve months we have said
many cruels things about the leaders of Tam
many for not paying their income tax An
investigation into their financial affairs, how
ever, has lately convinced us that possibly we
have done them injustice We hasten, there
fore, to make them an amende honorable, by
giving to the public the result of some recent
researches. In the first place, the Tammany
chiefs, lured by the fact that fortunes were
made by some spectators, have been dealing
extensively in real estate, and have lost heavi-
ly. On the 10Th day of March last William NJ
Tweed paid S275,OOO to Daniel Butterfeld for
twenty-five and half acres of land at Fort
Washington. In six months the same piece so
deprecated in value as to cause clear loss
to its new owner of over Sl5O,OOO-or the
Deputy Tax Commissioner who appraised it
made a mistake, since its valuation-titty per
cent of its real worth--on the textbooks is
100000
Again. Mfr. Tweed, attracted by the plaza
entering the Park at the junction OF BroauWay
and Fifty-ninth-st., bought number Oh io's
fronting thereon, for which he must nave paiu
handsomely, if the valuations OF the appraisers
annointed by the Supreme Court are correct.
They awarded to G.. NJ. Connolly, the Con-
troller's brother, and other owners sum equal
TO from $4,000 to $4,000 per lot. Now as Mr.
Tweed bought this property about the time
these awards were made, it is but fair to pre-
sumo that his lots were worth $4,000 TO
iOOOo each, but the Tax Commissioners value
them to-day at from $4,000 to $4,000 each
Other examples might be cited to show that
by some .unaccountable fatality, no sooner does
Tammauy sachem purchase piece OF prop
erty than it depreciates on his hands. Nor
does his misfortune stop here. The land he
purchases is hardly i'll his possession before
the City, with its rapacious nav ever craving
like Oliver Twist, for more, gobbles II up Tor
public use.
