TRAT LNFERNAL TARIFE

This mode of taxation TO support the
Government, buffers the bread OF the
FEW; but II proves commercial night
mare to the MANY, We begin to look
upon the acts OF Congress imposing a
tax of 20 per cent on type, and the
same on paper, as u mortgage on In
dustry and intelligence. In fact, it is
a crime, because potent thing is done
indirectly, (deceptively, which is not
good in morals) which should be done
directly. All tariff laws inure to the
benefit Of the few, and entails huge
burthen on the many, Reader, just
think for moment of the enormous
profits raked in by the few under the
tariff laws of Congress, in the shape
of and under the guise of revenue
tax, to support the Government. Yet
all the revenue collected during the
past year at the various Ports Of the
United States, from type and pa
per, will not pay the salary of one
!
Congressman. Nevertheless, the peo
pie of the United States have paid L
typefounders and paper.makers mill
IONS of dollars, which the latter hav,
spent at the sea shore, White Mountains
Niagara Falls, jaunts to the Pacif,
coast, and trips TO Europo-nice indeed
tariff on Inst raAact Eo- .-,~.,o'
what II costs for newspapers, schoo
books, Bibles, and your letter paper
by adding 20 per cent. to the manu-
facturer's price. Why does Congress
not endorse blacksmiths, carpenters
and the laboring man in simila
way? II the Government assumes /,
stuff and protect few Of its citizen
with Government pap, why not all
Let us ignore our manhood no longer
and deny that our Government is I
paternal one, and say that all who ar,
twenty.one years of age are freemer
and able to take care Of themselves.
