proposition of the American that a
settlement of the State debt, to be
permanent and practicable, should
have the approval and assent of the

HOW THETARIPF WORKS.


From a Speech by Senator Williams Of
Kentucky
If protection is good thing, proh:
bition is better one; and the best of
all would be to close all our ports
against foreign nations, and surround
ourselves with an impossible wall
like China and Japan, Commerce is
the exchange between nations of
their surplus commodities, and there
must be some reciprocity or there can
be no no foreign trade. Whatever
shuts out imports shuts in exportC.
five would sell we must also buy, or
there is an end of trade. Trade
cannot be kept up long where the
cash is all one side.
The friends of protection do not
state the issue fairly. They try to
force it between protection aud abso>
lutte free trade. Nobody is for Tree
trade Just now. The wants of the
Government are so great that all
agree very large amount of revenue
must be raised from the customs.
The difference is, the manufactured
wants tariff so high upon all articles
that come i'll competition with him
as to keep them out altogether, or
load them 50 heavily with charges
as to destroy competition. We want
a tariff that will yield the most reve-
nue. at the lowest rate of assessment.
Free trade would yield no revenue,
while prohibition would be equally
fruitless.
We want lower tariff with larger
appropriations which will give the
Government more revenue and the
people more comforts. We want for
eign competition in our markets, to
give us lower p:ices and better goods.
The amount ofrevenue now derived
from customs is about 5000, 900, 600,
collected from about 400, 600, 900 OF
imports that come III competition
with domestic products.
This 5000, 900, 600 comes from the
pockets of the people, but they pay ii
cheerfully, because it goes into their
treasury to support their government.
But this tax has reflex action
against which the people protest.
This tariff not only increases the
price of imported goods, by the
amount of duty assessed, but
it augments the price of all that il
manufactured and consumed at home
which is many times greater than the
imports.
A Louisville merchant goes to New
York to lay in stock of goods. HI
first enters an English importing
house, and prices bale of coarse
WOODEN cloth, which is two dollars pei
yard; "But," says he II bought thi
, cloth before the war at one dollar.
"True," says the Englishman, "bu
your government has put on a duty
of one dollar per yard; and have
only added that to the price" Gu
t merchant pays for the goods and tn,
} importer puts one dollar into his owl
pocket, and the other into our treasu
ny. Now this is revenue and goes t
support the government.
: He now crosses the street to al
7 American house and examines sim
liar bale of domestic goods and find
the prices exactly the same. Blu
how is this says he, "you pay nj
J duty and yet sell as high as the En-
glishman. True" says the salesman
"You see the foreign article fixes tn
, price, and we ask two dollars becaus
we can get it." Our merchant pay
the two dollars yard and the manu-
facturer puts every dollar into his owl
pocket and not a cent into our treasu
ry. Now this is protection.
