Louise, a trading vessel, which endeav.
ored to reach the mouth of Yenisei rivel

Tariff and Wages.
st. Leuis Chronicle.


Wages are paid out Of the product
Of labor. fhe employer could not
long continue to pay wages to the
laborer unless the laborer produced
enough to pay himself and something
over for the employer who advances
the wages. Wages in all countries
depend, first, on the productiveness Of
labor second, upon the amount of
capital which is available for the en-
ployment Of labor and, thirdly, upon
the number Of labOrers competing for
employment.
If protection raises wages it must
do it by making labor more product
i've, increasing the capital of the
nation, or reducing the number Of
wOrkingmen competing for employ
ment.
Protection does not and cannot
make labor more productive, but, on
the contrary, makes it less productive
by diverting labor aud capital from
profitable into Improbable trades
Under free trade none but profitable
industries could permanently exist.
Capital would increase faster under
free trade and the increase of capital
would make an increased demand for
labor, and consequently raise wages
The labor and capital employed In the
protected-tha' Il, the Improbable
industries mu,t be taken from the
trades that are profitable, and OF
course the aggr gate production of a
nation is less than before, a ceire
eponding reduction of Eages must in,
evitably follow.
A protective tariff cannot create
capital it can only change it from one
trade to another, and only changes it
from profitable into Improbable
trades consequently, protection must
lower wages by reducing the amount
Of capital available for the employ
ment Of labor. Protection does
not reduce the number Of labor
ers competing for labor; and as supply
and demand regulate all prices, the
tariff cannot raise wages as it neither
increases the demand for labor nor
reduces the supply of laborers. If
protection createa new demand for
labor In the protected trades, it
reduces the demand in the unpro.
tected trades by making them less
profitable. AS protection cannot make
labor more productive, cannot in
crease the capital Of the nation and
does not reduce the number of laborers
competing in tho labor market, it
cannot increase wages.
The first protective tariff asked for
in this country was asked for because
wages were already high and the tariff
was asked for to counteract high
wages, thet is, to Yeduoe them by re-
ducing their purchasing power.
Experience has demonstrated that
where labor is freest it is most produo
tive, and where labor is most produc
tive the laborer's share is the largest
Protection cannot and does not
increase wages, but it can and does
increase the cost Of living.
I Free trade would reduce the cos
of living and at the same time increas
the wages ofour workingmen.

cables we're laid. The news was then
prepared in tissue paper. in nearly
the same way as our ship news ID
now manifolded for the several papers
1t was prepared and sealed up in a
water-tight can before it left the other
side. When the ships wheels were
heard through dense fog, or when

Farrell would go off in his boat, tax {
ing a cage Of carrier pigeons with him
and when close to the vessel. the cans
were thrown overheard and Farrell
picked them up. Alter opening the
cans he would take pigeon from the
cage and fasten the manifold to the
bird, which would fly ashore to the
telegraph station; and long before the
vessel would reach quarantine the
news brought by her had been tele
graphed to all points reached by the
wires. Sometimes the pigeons would
not feel hungry enough to 20 ashore
for food and they would not fly, but
this only occurred occasionally.

The STATE CANVASS.
The Democracy of 0biOn in Earnest
for Bate and the Platform.
Strong Speeches by Gen. QuarIes
and Hon. John F. House at
Union City.
Special to the World.


UNION City, October l8.-General
w. A. Quarles and Hon. j. f. House
addressed large aud respectable au-
dience of Democrats here this evening.
General Quarles said the Democratic
convention met the Goth of June and
nominated a man against whose record
none dare say word. If there ever
was pure and crystalized Democ.
racy it was in the Bate platform.
This platform contained the great
principle of the responsibility of Rep.
resentatives to their constituents
which was not in the platform Of the
boilers.
Bailey and Jackson advocated 5O.4
two years ago, but now they say we
violate principle and act dishonorably
by making a 80 3 proposition. He
did not condemn them. He believed
they were honest men and could only
say Lord forgive them, they know
not what they do" Hawkins paid six
per cent on Mrs. Folks bonds, and
now objected TO the Bate platform
because it proposed to do likewise
The Greenbackers could do nothing
# they had both houses of Congress,
the Governor and the Legislature,
for the banks had been rechartered
and the law would have effect for twen-
ty years. General QuarIes spoke one
hour and a half, during which time
he was frequently applauded, and he
commanded the attention Of the entire
audience. Hon. John +. House was
then introduced, and said that he had
no interest in the questions involved
in this canvass, beyond that of any
other Democrat. He was in favor Of
the Bate platform, against the 6O-6,
because one would be a settlement if
passed and the other would not. The
debt never would be settled until
there was a proposition by the credit.
Ors accepted by a majority Of the
people of the State. The people con-
sidered that as between 60-6 and 50-3
was involved the principle of the right
of the people to instruct their repre-
sentatives what to do. The Republi-
cans did not want the debt settled, for
on the division of the Democrats de
pended the life of the Republican
party in this State. He never under
stood why Russell was nominated.
Admitting that the Fussell party had
rather settle at 60-6 than 60-3, they
would have been stronger for legisla-
tive positions without the nomination
for Governor, and he could not account
for it unless it was to aid in the elec
tion of Hawkins.
After Colonel House closed he was
greeted with loud applause, and the
crowd dispersed with yellS Of "hurrah
for Bate"
Public ledger. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1865-1893, 1882-10-20

THE Chattanooga Times doesn't
think that Colonel Edwards coming
over to the support of General Bate
amounts to much. That paper says:
HE has been prodding about after
an Office for lol these many years, and
hasn't been successful. If he spoke
his sentiments in 1873 he was an
agrarian, a communist or a lunatic-
probably something Of all three. He
never was a sensible man, and his
flop from National and State repudia'
ton to the Readjuster camp didn't
require him to turn half over"
The sky blues fail to discover any
danger signals. The changes goinl
on in favor of General Bate do mo-
count. They are Gs indifferent ai
Turks, who say that what is to be vii
be, and that it is the will of Allah
therefore, Allah be praised. A better
illustration, perhaps, is the tradition
of the old man supposed to be Methu
selah, the grandfather Of Noah, whr
called on the Captain of the Ark tt
round to and let him get aboard. As
the story goes, Noah answered through
his speaking trumpet that he cOulc
not stop at way landings. FAll right
shouted the wicked old man, as h,
raised his chin out Of the water, e,
ahead with your dugOut, | don't thinl
there will be much Of shower n,

clerk in charge Of this district Of the
Cincinnati division Of railway service
found his force inadequate to the
prompt handling Of mails, swollen
out Of all ordinary proportions by the
marriage association literature. He
set out the fact to his superior, who
sent the communication to the depart
ment. That is the whole Of it. The
Associated Press never telegraphed
anything on the subject from here
The gentleman who complained and
asked more force to work his mails is
not connected with the Chattanooga
pOstofiice, but is in charge of railway
mails on all the roads ending here
except two. He made no assault on
the marriage guilds, unless a desire to
forward their mails promptly is an
assault. The falsehOod about the
Associated Press agent here being
mixed in the matter originated with
some able jawed prevaricatOr at
Knoxville, and was probably delib-
crate, intentional and malicious SLAM
der.
The LEDGER's paragraph was
based upon a dispatch from Wash
ington sent out to the Associated
Press, aud was intended merely as a
bit Of news and gossip, without preiu-
dice to any one.

If our esteemed and indispensable
contemporary the Avalanche will take
the LEDGER's article referring to the
four mile law in its entirety, it will be
seen that the cheap charters had in
mind are those obtained for educa-
tional institutions. AS stated by
our neighbor many towns have
had their charters abolished 50
that they could avail themselves Of
the benefits of the four mile law.
We claim that there is nothing in the
June platform favoring the repeal Of
the four mile law; that no candidate
on the Democratic ticket favors its
repeal, and the LEDGER insists that il
shall stand. SO does Mr.. Kelly, a
Wholesale liquor merchant on our
ticket.
