Never spend your money before you

Nothing is troublesome that we do

The Protective Minority.

Few il any questions have more con-
tInuously agitaied the country since the
formation OF parties than has that OF the
tariff. Tariffs, for protection, have been
unjustly discriminating, as between the
consumers and their oppressors, through
the strange and apparently unavoidable
impotence OF the former, which outlum-
Der the latter The tariff question has
been, at alternate periods. before the pres
ent session of Congress ever since its 40
semblng, and the bill prepared by Fer
nando Wood is still being discussed,
though little hope of its maturity and
passage before adjournment is entertained
in view of this state Of case some astound,

vital interest to every one From the
facts afforded it is seen that all the manu-
