Now this Is fact. There are Biz
mingham immigrants right here in the
city of Wilmington. II what this
Pennsylvauia fres trader says Is true.
Why did they come here? And further
after coming here and finding the mis-
take they have made--fnding that they
have poorer homes. poorer food and
poorer clothing, why do they not g
back to England whore they have bet
ter homes, better food and better cloth
ing? The reasons are obvious. They
came here because they can live bettel
here because they can purchase theil
own homes and make them AZ comfor
table as they please because they gel
better wages and because in addition u
all thesethey enjoy political freedom and
liberty.

To Advertiser.

A word to advertisers at the com
mencemeDt of the active advertising
season will, we think, not be deemed
inappropriate. For the use of our busi-
ness men, merchants, manufacturers
and bankers, the REPUBLICAN offers
its columns, and with that offer Is a
real solid bonafde circulation Of $500
papers daily. As at the least calcula.
tion three persons, on on average, read
the same paper, it will be seen that the
REPUBLICAN has 10, 500 daily readers.
Without saying a word derogatory to
the standing and circulation of the
other papers in our city, we confidently
assert, without the fear Of successful
contradiction, that no paper in vii.
mington offers the same advantages to
advertisers as the REPU BLICAN. II
circulates amongst the masses Of the
people. and il confined to none In par
ticular. Though having q circulation
far in advance Of all other papers "a cir
culation nearly, If not quite, as great al
all the other dailies com bined the price,
for advertising are not greater. W.
feel confident that the business public
of Wilmington will appreciate the ad'
vantages offered by the REPUBLICAN
and On the part of the publishers every
effort will be made TO accommodate it,
patrons
In addition to the superb advantage
offered by the DAILY REPUBLICAN, ,th'
| Weekly issue offers no less an adyan
tage to advertisers who wish to reacl
country patronage. The supplement b
the Weekly to be issued before the holi
days, will offer additional facilities AM
advantages for advertisers to reach tn
country trade. With this gentle re
minder that the REPUBLICAN, dali,
and weekly, is superior and first clas
advertising medium, we leave the res
with those who advertise.

gives an illustration of vices of gov

says that there are 124 officers in
the Navy Pay department., of whom
twenty-five receive an aggregate of
$4,000 as salary, while fifty re-
ceive $175,0O0, and the salary of the
the others makes up 1887 900 in all.
These men men pay an average of
only lightweight persons each. If
they were all actively engaged in
paying, their disbursements would
amount to an average of S55, 400 a
year for each. The mere cost Of
paying the navy is equal to five per
cent of the entire amount discussed.

Hon. George G. Hazelton, stated
in speech delivered in this city
a little more than two years ago,
that although evils might exist in
the tariff laws of the country he
would oppose any effort to revise
them, and expressed the belief that
meddling with the tariff question
would result in a revision of the
tariff in the direction of free trade.
With all his vast influence he has
been unable to keep the question
out of congress, but fortunately for
the people of this district their
interests will not be misrepresented
by the honorable George while the
tariff is being subjected to thor
ough revision by the next congress.

THE DEMOCRAT.
Mineral Point, Friday, Feb. Is, 1888.
Geo. Crawford, Robt. NJ Crawford,
EDITORS AND PRoPRIEToRs
On Thursday of last week Senator

On Thursday of last week Senator
Lamar delivered the most able and
comprehensive speech of the entire
tariff discussion. A report says: 1t
was almost the first speech that took
in a broad range of view, and wheth-
er those who listened agreed with
the speaker or not, they certainly
found that the tariff in at least one
speech was not discussed upon the
narrow basis of local interest"
Senator Lamar was for a number
of years professor of political econ
omy in college at Oxford, Miss,
and is regarded as great authority
upon the subject of tariff.
The republicans of Wisconsin had
an opportunity to send an eminent
professor of political economy-Prof.
Chaplin of Beloit College-to the Z.
S. Senate few years ago. But in
stead of him they sent practical "
man, Hon. Philetus Sawyer. Mr..
Sawyer probably don't know much
about political economy in general;
but he does know that keeping the
present duty of one dollar per thous-
and feet on pine lumber will enrich
himself and the other lumber barons
who possess tracts of pine lands
which they purchased from the gov
ern ment at one dollar and quarter
an acre. The tariff enhances the
value of these lands from eighteen
to forty dollars per acre, and lumber
will not be put upon the free list if
Senator Sawyer can help it.
Iowa County democrat. [volume] (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1877-1938, 1883-02-16

The New York World is sound
to the core on the tariff question. 1t
says: "The World affirms, and no
man is democrat who denies, that
the constitution gives this govern
ment no power to lay one penny of
taxes in order to aid and subsidize
either capital or labor embarked in
any special class of industry in any
part of this Union"
