In 1850 money would buy moIe
than now. Comparing the cost of 5S
articles, necessaries of life, including rent,
iuei, meats. vegetables, -four, &C., in
leOO with their cost in 1879. our cores
pondent gets this result : That the cost OF
the whole 5S articles in certain quantities
IN the latter year was s100, or s1.75 each,
While III 1860 they could be bought for
S!o.3S, Or S1,S2 each, u difference of pur-
chasing power for money Of 33s per cent.
IN favor of the low-tariff period. The
conclusion drawn from these facts is that
IN pretending to protect " the Ameri-
can workingman from foreign pauper
labor " our tariff lords are in reality
pauperizing American labor.

SENATOR WALLACE has introduced a

committee has favorably reported, carry

lieving the supreme court. II mnhes
circuit courts of final jurisdiction in
cases involving but $500, except equity
causes, and cases of felonious homicide,
or when the cCnsiitniionalty of law is
involved, or where three of the circuit
court judges certify the case to
be of sufficient importance for
appeal to the supreme court.
The circuit courts are composed of six
judges of the common pleas courts and
are to be nine in number. Philadeiphja
and Allegheny counties, which give half
of its business to the supreme court, are
excepted from The provisions of The law.
OF course this will not DO. The supreme
court cannot be run for the benefit of
Allegheny and Philadelphia only, w!sicl.

a High Tariff PauperIzes American Labor

"A High Tariff I'auperIzes American Labor
| Baltiln orc Sun.
A correspondent Of the Sun, possessed
OF a memory for facts and the faculties of
investigation and comparison, has been
employing himself with the study of tho
tariff for revenue period between 1850
and 1850, and contrasting it's effect upon
| wages and what wages would buy. with
the period of high protection - between
1870 and 1880, and its effect upon wages
and their purchasing power. His com
parsons indicate that it is Il cruel pcrver-
sion OF facts to say that "a high tariff is
the poor mans friend" In the period from
1901 to 1861 the average tariff rate Was Is
per cent. of the value of the goods i'm
ported i'll the decade frCm 1870 to 1880 it
vas, as now, over ~ per csnt. In the
iormer period tho value Of our exports
exceeded the value of our imports by
S40, GOO, GOO, while under high protection
the balance has been Tor the most part the
other way. During the decade from 1850
to 1860 articles of American manufactu,e
constituted 10 per cent. of our total ex
ports in the period from 1870 to 1880 but
IA per cent. showing decline under
protection" Notwithstanding our
activity in alldepartments OF enterprise. |
In 1860 the average wages of !
hands in Woolen mills were $3.50. .2G per !
annum. in 1879 but 1903 showing a !
decline under a high tariff of sG4 Fl :, |
a year, ana thar tho workman was about
22 per cent. better oif in wages under a
low tariff. In the cotton mills The averape
wages OF 1860 We're 1851. 40 in 1873.
$40. II. q decline of s123aS, or about 81
per cent. For both industries the wages
average less in New England the paradise
OF protection, than anywhere else iu the
United States. Other Industries would
show similar results, in comparison.
IN favor OF the low tariff period.
Wages are worth what they will buy.

of the world, he explained the difference
between home and foreign missions. The
department Of home missions in the Pres
byterian church includes the United
States and its territories, the department
of foreign missions all tho rest of the
world. VIXEN q missionary is, for instance,
sent to Mexico he is acting under the
foreign missions department., but one sent
to New Mexico is under the home mission
department and yet both occupy very
similar field, labor among Spanish speak
ing people and have the same duties to
perform what is necessary in the one
field is necessary in the other. Dr. Jack
son addressed himself especially to the
work necessary to be done by Christian
women, in the cause Of home missions.
In New England there are women's mis-
siOns that were established more than a
hundred years ago, and in New
York and other states more than fifty
years. They have done excellent work,
and have kept upon the frontiers, through
their contributions, ministers who other
wise could not have been kept there The
speaker gave some interesting narratives
OF self sacrificing men who have devoted
their lives to y labor of love for the sal
vatlon of the poor, ignorant, degraded
Indians adding that what is wanted more
than faithful ministers, is corps of
teachers, with schools and school houses,
The adult Indians will not listen to the
but the children can be reached
through the teacher and thus a genera
ton can be trained, that will hear the
gospel, and the way to their civilization
and salvation will then be opened.

The learned doctor next gave ii startling
picture of the euOrmities of MormOn;sm.

his subject be not reported, as, if they
