THE FREE-TRADERS.

David A. Wells. in . lecturs. before
the Now York Free-Trade club Nov.
Esd, said that the results of Nov. 7th
came from q feeling that the people
were taxed $3.50, 100000 . year more
than was necessary. IA result. iof this
feeling, he said. will be = reduction, Of
taxation, and the question for tres-trsd.

while circumstances are favorable, an
intelligent revenue reform. New. Eag

Carpenters and furniture. n.akers get
much larger pay than iron-workers.
American laborers in cotton. mills got
$245 Tor three hundred days work, and
British laborers in the same industry
$3.50. The reason Of the strikes Of, the
last year was that It required 81 A to

present tariff system put premium on
dishonesty, he believed the civil service
reformers aud the tariff retormers would
join hands.

A SPECIMEN TARIFF ABsURD1TY,

t"Gath" in the Cincinnati Enquirer.l
A case was brought to my attention
some time ago whore a party had been
making corsets out OF some wild beasts
horn from the East Indies, and be.
"Ignant government had given him .
duty. on which he made his $500, 900 or
more. It then occurred to him that he
might use old COW horns on the PLAINS
III place OF the special horn heretofore
used for splints in the corset. So our
friend rushed before the tariff commls-
sion and asked that the ibex horn be
shut out by a duty that he might make
an inferior article out OF COW horns. So
this person had first got his issx hern
tree and made one fortune. and now he
prop ,ses to shut it out and make anoth.
er. Such is one of the absurdities ol
the tariff; and the committee OF ways
and means allows men to strip the
country of fortunes by such turns as
this. and perhaps leave 1t forever to
spend their money in Europe. whence
they came.
