J. J. Miller.

Mr.. j. J. Miller is the democratic
nominee for Sheriff of Dickinson county,
but the REFLECTOR does not wish to
introduce him to its readers merely as "a
democrat. \ mans politics, ifnOt sup
ported by true worth of character, will
avail him nothing in community OF
such intelligent and independent people
as populate Dickinson county. And
although the REFLECTOR is democrat
ic paper, it will never recommend or
support democrat for Office unless it be-
lieves him to be in every respect worthy
of it.
Happily, the REFLECTOR has no hes
itancy whatever in recommending Mr..
Miller to the favorable consideration of
Dickinson county. He has been resi-
dent of this county for eight years, and
his conduct has always been gentle
manly and honorable. AS City Marshal
of Abilene he has discharged his duties
faithfully, intelligently and well. He
is possessed of honor, ability and nerve,
and if elected he will make the County
most excellent and efficient sheriff.
Mr.. Miller is manly man, and de-
serves well Of our citizens.

Carlisle For Speaker.

The withdrawal of Blackburn from
the contest for speakership of the next
House of Representatives simplifies
matters a great deal. 1t almost as
sures the election of either Cox, of New
York, or Carlisle, of Kentucky. Both
of these men are pronounced tariff re-
formers, and the election of either
would prove satisfactory to the free
trade democrats of the West. The
democratic party is not wavering or
hesitating on this great tariff question.
1t is declaring openly and aggressively
for a tariff for revenue only" and
against all monopolies and combina-
tions of capital. The choosing Of the
speaker of the next national house OF
representatives will be determined on
these grounds, and Carlisle is at pres
ent the foremost man for that position.
The election of Randall, high prOtec-
zionist. would be almost fatal wound
to the party. He must be defeated,
and man favoring tariff for the
needs of the Government must be
placed in the chair. The voice and in
fuence of the great West and the bur
dened operatives of the East will be
heard and felt in the next campaign.

" Not Guilty"

After listening to wearying amount
of evidence and eloquent rhetoric, the
jury in the Frank James case at Gala
tin, Mo-, brought in a verdict last
Thursday afternoon at four o'clock of
''nct guilty." While the evidence
offered was probably insufficient to con-
vict, it would yet have been perfectly
safe for the jury to have hung Frank
on general principles. No one doubts
the outlaws cruel, bloodthirsty, muir
derous disposition, and the people of
the country would have been better sat
isfied had different verdict been rem
dered.

The Tables Turned.

The labor troubles of recent years in
this country have caused pretty gen.
eral inquiry to be made into the causes
which produce them. Why should the
laboring classes Of protected America
be so discontinued and uneasy? Why
should the United States, with its pro-
tected industries and comparatively
scant population, be more troubled with
its laboring class than any European
country? These questions have been
asked for years, and they are just being
answered.
Jay Gould appeared before the Sen
ate committee on education and labor
in New York last week, and in the
course of his examination he said, in
answer to a question: Labor, as well
as everything else, is governed by the
law of supply and demand. In my
opinion, there is a surplus of labor in
this country, caused by immigration. :"
Labor, as well as everything else, is
governed by the law of supply and de-
mand." How does this statement APP
ply to the great protected industries?
Doesn't free labor pay protected prices
for its necessities? Is it, then, Oh an
equal footing with ''everything else?'
This everlasting tariff question is
about to prove veritable boomerang.
The great protected monopolies, the
great monOpolists, with Jay Gould at
their head, seemed never to have con-
sidered labor worthy of protection, and
now come the labor organizations and
say that labor is as much entitled to
protection as capital; that to foreign
competitor is due the low prices prevail
ing in the manufactures, and that
American labor should be protected
from the competition of the foreign ar
ticle.
This demand makes the protection
lists head swim. 1t reduces all his ar
gumentS to absurditieS and leaves him
helpless. If it is right to protect capt.
tai it is right to protect labor; but see
where this leads. If labor be protected
then what is made by protection on the
product will go to the protected artizan
in higher wages, and what good will
that do the class for whose benefit pro-
lection was designed? The question
does not bother the advocates of free
trade and free labor, but it is sumner
to protectionists.
The Abilene reflector. [volume] (Abilene, Kan.) 1883-1888, 1883-09-13
Low Tariffs Always Increase Wages

1t is fact that the SO called ''free
trade tariff of 1916, which largely re-
duced the duties on all classes of man
ufactures, gave the signal for the first
decided increase of wages paid by
American manufacturers. We have
not the means of telling how great the
advance was between 1916 and 1850;
but it was undoubtedly considerable.
Between 1850 and 1860, however, we
have official statistics, which show that
the average yearly wages advanced from
S245 in 1850 to $3.50 in 1860. In 1861,
the tariff was again raised, and the wa
ges were reduced considerably; but this
was to so large an extent the effect of
the outbreak of war that we lay no
stress upon it. The immense number
of volunteers drawn off for the war
caused a rise in wages during the fol-
lowing year, though not to any higher
point than they had stood at under the
low tariff of 1860. The entire increase
in wages which afterward took place,
and which has been so much boosted
of as the result of a protective tariff,
was due solely to the initiation of the
currency and the demand for manufac-
lures caused by the waste of war. But
even with this nominal increase, there
never was a time during which work
mems wages were materially higher in
gold than they had been in 1860. They
were at an extremely high point when
the census was taken in 1870, and yet
when reduced to gold the average wages
of manufacturing workmen then were
only 1902, as compared with $3.50 in
1860, d nominal increase of per cent.
Estimated in purchasing power, these
wages were equal only to $242, as COM
pared with the price of the necessaries
of life in 1860, being an actual decline,
Notwithstanding an enormous increase
of the tariff, of S47, or about II per
cent; and they were actually less in
purchasing power than they had been
in 1850. a rapid reduction of wages
followed in the years 1874 to 1877. A
gradual rise then took place, which be-
came rapid in 1879. The census was
taken for the period including June l,
1879, to June l, 1880, which was exact
ly the highest point of prices and Wa
ges in manufactures generally and es-
pecially in iron and steel. It was also
period of great imitation; all the paper
currency being kept afoat, with the adj
ditiOn of an enormous amount of gold.
Imitation, of course, causes nominal
increase in wages. but it also causes
still greater increase in prices. New
ertheleSs the average wages of manu-
featuring wOrkmen in 1880, irrespective
of their purchasing power, were only
1916, showing gain of only 20 per |
cent. i'll 20 years, while there had been |
a gain of 20 per cent. in 10 years of |
low tariff. This high average only lasted |
two years, after which wages were cut |
down fully 20 per cent, leaving the av-
erage wages no higher than they were
20 years ago; while the cost of living
has greatly increased.

On Saturday afternoon, between five and

party. drew up at the Billings station. A
large number of our citizens, including a
soodly number of the fair sex. were as
sembled on the platform to see the Chief
Magistrate Of tho nation. Contrary to the
expectations of those assembled, none OF
the distinguished party came out on the
platform, until the train commenced to
pull out, when they appeared on the rear
platform of the train, and bowed in re-
sponse to cheers Of the people. Had
deputation of our citizens waited on them,
doubtless the party would have landed,
and the people who had taken the trouble
to turn out would have had q better oppor-
tunity Of seeing them. As it was, consid-
erable dissatisfaction was expressed at the
apparent indifference of the distinguished
tourists, in remaining in their car, when it
was quite evident large number OF citi-
zens wished to see them. Had they come
from the opposite direction, their apparent
temcrity might have we'll been accounted
