p.orvCY,oy DOES sor PROTECT

The Tariff Commissioners have diligently
pursued the investigation entrusted to them
by Congress. As it was well understood that
the object OF the committee was not to ascer-
tain whether continuance OF the tariff was
desirable or not, but 10 learn how best to
carry out the protective system, but few Tree
traders have troubled the commission with
their remarks. 1t must not be supposed,
however, that all who testified before the
commissioners in the sense understood to be
required were protectionists. There are per-
sons who, while Directing to protection as a
system, are compelled, that system being es
tablished, to strive 10 have it carried out in
a manner that shall not put the business
they are engaged in at disadvantage. They
are compelled by the exigencies OF business
to claim that they shall be equally
favored with their competitors. Plainly,
If government undertakes TO supersede
the laws OF trade and encourage
a dollhouse plant sort of business,
every man is compelled to demand that his
dollhouse shall be as good and complete as
his neighbours. Besides this, if protectionls
a good thing it ought to assist all alike, the
more of it the better. And this the=arch-
protectionist, ship-building Roach proclaim
ed when he said before the commissioners:
81 believe in protection not for single in
dustry, but for ALL" In this way the farmer
would pay an extra price for the manutac-
lures he bought to protect the manufacturer,
and the manufacturer would pay extra TO
protect the farmer, and in the came manner
those employed in every business would pay
extra, when making his purchases, to protect
the producer of the things purchased.
Wherever capital was employed there
would be mutual paying money away 10
protect others, side by eide with a receiving
of extra pay for ones own protection. Sup
pose protection to be carried out SO that, all
round, people are paying money 10 protect
others aud receiving money for their
own protection, what is the gain to
the country az q whole? Each citi-
zen takes money out of his pockets
and puts into the pockets of his neighbors,
and takes from his neighbors' pockets and
puts into his own. But take the givers and
receivers as whole, when the entire pro-
cess ia gone through, and every one has paid
and every one has received, there is net a
cent more among the whole of them than
there was before. Suppose the process had
been that each man took money from his
right-haDd pocket and put it into his left,
the whole body would be just as rich, and
no more SO, than when each put money into
and took money out of the pockets OF bis
neighbor. Such is the 6nal result of that
elaborate and mischievous process called
projections; and, therefore, of course, as is so
often complained, protection does not pro-
test," for what one individual gains another
individual loses, while the result for the
whole mass of individuals is to leave the
total amount OF its wealth unchanged by
anything protective payments and receipts

The Ford Boys on Trial.

PLATTsBURG, Mo, October 20.-The court
room this morning was crowded TO the ut
most, as testimony was commenced in the
Ford case for the murder of Hite. j. G.
Morris, constable, of Richmond, testified to
finding Woods body burned in the pasture,
near the house, as heretofore published; that
the skull was crushed on the right side and
the right arm bore flesh wounds. ID. E.
Masters, Justice of the peace, testified
that there was also fracture on
the left side of the head. Charles
Sayers, a merchant OF Richmond, testified
that he, in company with Joseph San
derson and J. E. Ball, called upon Bot
Ford, while held in Jail at st. Joeeph for
killing Jesse james, and that Ford then
told them he had killed Hite; that Dick
Liddell was in one corner of the room, and
Hite came in at the door opposite aud COM
menced firing. Mrs. Bolton, Ford's sister,
and her two children, were in the third
corner, and he was in the fourth, near the
stairway. As the room was filed with
smoke, he was afraid his sister would be in
iured and he drew his revolver and shot
Hite, killing him almost instantly. rigid
cross-examination followed TO break down
Savers testimony, and he further said Bob
did not appear TO be excited.
Several other witnesses were examined
including Mrs, Bolton (Ford's sister, but be
fore the conclusion of her evidence the court
adjourned. The defense is closely contesting
every inch of ground.

tiuued this morning. II. E. Miles submitted
a lengthy resolution in reference to prohibl

CATHOLIC POLITICAL PARTY.
The Movement Very heartily Con-
demned by a Catholic Newspaper.

The association of German Catholics
which lately met at Milwaukee declared in
favor of establishing a Catholic political
party, on the ground that such an orgsniza a.
ton is needed to give the Catholics recogni.
ton, which, ii is asserted, has been denied
them. The scheme is denounced by the
Buffalo Catholic Union as follows:
We are opposed to religious political parties IN
this country. whether CATHOLIC, Presbyterian.
Methodist or Protestant. Here all denominations
are free on an equal footing politically. That Is
all that Catholic wants or asks. He knows That
in fair competition there will be a survival of the
ttest and that the true Church OF Christ Will tn
umph in the end. The success OF the Churcn de-
ponds on the promise OF Christ and on the power
Of truth, Lot political conventions, or pothouse
management. All she ask of the politician Is thai
he be converted, repent OF his iniqulties, and
mend his WAYS q . A Catholic politician or
a political Catholic. who appeals to his fellow
Catholics for their votes, simply because he is a
Catholic, should be scratched every time. He
should be scratched on the principle that when he
makes that appeal he has no other decent appeal
to make.

The Danger or OiIing Gin saws.

Every planter knows that when cotton is
fed to gin in a damp state it clogs The
saws; and to counterfeit this il is said that
some are in the habit OF oiling the saws 30
that the cotton will not adhere 10 them.
But all of them do not knew as they should
that oiled cotton will take fire spontaneously
at a temperature often reached in the sum
shine, in close cars or warehouses, and in
The holds OF ships; and that the practice OF
oiling the saws of cotton gins endangers lives
and property to an extent that cannot be
estimated. Many fires st sea that have not
been accounted for, may have originated
from this cause
