GRANT AND PORTER.

tits now suggested that Grant has come
out for F'itz John Porter in order that he may
get the votes of the Democratic Senators
to place him (Grant) on the retired list OF
the army. That is the thought of a very
petty little scoundrel. To do anything
without motive of self behind is beyond
the conception of certain persons, whose
brains are congested, and who go through
the world like goose looking into jug,
with an eye peeled for frailty. General
Grant doesn't care about the retired list OF
the army; he never asked to be placed
there, and Logan's action in regard to the
matter has been entirely unsolicited IF
the General really were anxious about the
matter he would hardly take issue with the
great opponent of Fitz John Porter in the

TRANSPORTATION.

| In order to fully understand the bear
ings of the recent action of the railroad
and warehouse commissioners in theil
statement that no discrimination must be
made between shippers, it is well to exam
inc into a case in this city. Lumber is
sold in Peoria by Chicago firms and on &C
count of the Illinois canal is brought into
that city at a low rate lumber dealers
here in Rock Island told the Rock Island
& Peoria Railroad that if they would give
them low rate to Peoria that they could
undersell the Chicago men at that place.
The II. /. s p. officials argued that where
as they carried much more freight from
Peoria to Rock Island than the other way,
and in consequence had to return empty
cars, that it would be for their profit to
carry the lumber at a low rate In conse-
quence they named two cents as the price.
Under that tariff Rock Islani lumbermen
were enabled to sell their goods in Peoria,
What was the effect of this "discrimi-
nation? Lumber was cheaper in Peoria.
The railroad carried freight it otherwise
could not; and the Rock Island men found
a market for their goods. If any one can
find any injustice or harm done by this
transaction they are welcome to: but now
Rcck Island must look to other markets
for its wares, Peoria pay more for it's luln-
Der and the railroad company have less 10
carry. Long live the commissioners

PROTECTION.

Prof. Perry, of Williams College, delv
cred an address on the subject of Free
Trade, the other evening in Brooklyn, il
the course Of which he said
THE late President Garfield, who was a
good friend of mine, told me some wears
ago, when he was member of the Com
mIttee on Ways and Means, that during
the session at least 900 persons appeared
before the committee asking for an in
crease of tariff on this or that article The
sole purpose of those people was to get an
extra price for their commodities out of the
people. See how false and insincere in
reality is the claim made by the Protection
lists. What do they say, when it is pro
posed to take off the tax? They say that
they cannot live, that the profit on their
goods would be so diminished that they
would be obliged to close their shops and
factories, and they admit that the duty has
simply raised the price of the article. Is
not that proof that the object of protec-
tive duties is not to raise revenue for the
Government, but simply to increase the
SOSL, anu tuC IlIOuG OH tic
And there are so many of them, each ask
ing for protective duties, that they
do good deal of log rolling, one helps
the other, and the result is that great
number of articles are taxed. In 1868 the
official customs list gave 2,317 articles
The protective system is not devised to
raise revenue on the articles imported into
the country, but to keep them out, and the
result is that for every foreign article kept
out by Protection, that would otherwise
come in, some artIcle'of export that would
go cut is kept at home. How does the
protective system strike the laboring man ? |
Is there any obstacle to foreign labor-to
the pauper labor-the Proteetionists are
so fond of talking about? Is labor pro-
tected? Is there any effort to keep it from
coming to this country? Labor is almost
the only thing that is not protected. 1t is, |
IN reality, all right ana proper that there
should be free trade in labor, but it shows /
the inconsistency of the Protectionists
ALI may come; we are glad to have them
come. Why are so many things protected,
md labor is not protected at all? Tap

Senate, and thereby run the risk of losing
Logan's influence for the bill placing him
on the retired list The fact is Grant is
never afraid to do what he thinks is right
through a fear that it may be impolitic.
He believes Fitz John Porter has been
wronged, and he would say so if kingdom
were the reward for his silence. He judges
that man can afford to be anything but
unfair aud unjust, and so he can,
So says the Inter Ocean, and it is stall
wart authority. If Grant were honest in
this case simply for honesty's sake, all
honor to Grant. The idea that by such
procedure he may lose Logan's help is a
funny one; the idea of Logan deserving
Grant so long as there is anything to be
made by sticking to him is a strange one.
