plea that the welfare OF the Government de
mands such pertidious practices Their de-
mand is not free trade, but q demand for
trade emancipated from mercenary villsiny;
from protective robbery; from monopoly
piracy; clean cut and undisguised rascality.
II the Government, for the purpose OF meet
ing just demands upon its Treasury. requires
that the necessities OF life shall be taxed, the
people will cheerfully pay what is required.
To that extent let the tax be levied. 1t is
not free trade; it is common sense. Ii
is patriotic devotion to the welfare
of the country. 1t meets with universal
approval. 1t is the American idea. But to
frame q tariff which compels one man to
pay tribute to another man, to tax the
many to enrich the few; to make the rich
richer and the poor poorer; to c cate aud
maintain monopolies, is an outrage which
can not be perpetuated and must cease. The
clap-trap about protecting American labor
has lost its hold upon the people, upon the
laborers themselves. Working people have
discovered that protective tariffs do not pro-
tect them. They have discovered at
last that monopolists pay the
lowest wages and are invariably
the most heartless taskmastsrs. The cry OF
free trade has lost its scare. 1t no longer
intimidates toilers. The lowest possible
wages for work, and the highest possible
prices for the necessities of life. is the protec-
ton tariff programme, and it is not popu.
lar. To abolish the tax on diamonds and
maintain the tax on salt and rice is free
trade in the wrong direction; it emancipates
the luxury and burdens the necessity. The
free trade party in the United States is that
which demands that trade shall be set free
from taxation levied for the benefit of cor
porations and individuals. 1t means taxa
ton levied for the use of the Government,
and if thereby corporations or individuals
are incidentally benefited, so be it. What is
unavoidable must be accepted and borne
with philosophic composure. An Ubiquitous
tariff creates millionalres and paupers, while
an honest adjustment of taxation, if it does
not Danish from society these extremes OF
opulence and poverty, will at least have a
tendency to mitigate the evils which they
lnhict.

not be done In freezing weather, aud accordingly
he determined TO have his child's body eubalmed

FREE TRADE,

II only Republican organs and orators
charged that the Democratic party advocates
free trade, the time devoted to the contradic
tion and disprovsl OF the arrsignment would
be practically thrown away. But it so hap
pens that here and there Democratic organs
and orators, for reasons quite inexplicable,
pursue a similar course. If free trade means
anything in means trade free from tariff
taxation, the adjustment of customs and
the adj mission of foreign merchandise of all
descriptions free of duty. Free Trade, there
fore, means no tariff. When thus
honestly stated it is found that those who
charge upon the Democratic party free trade
notions are doing it for considerations
utterly and hagrsntly at war with the truth.
There is absolutely no free trade party in
the United States. and scarcely man who
advocates the theory of free trade, and the
men who are constantly making such accu-
sations, know that they are guilty of such
perversion of facts, as, were they stated in
Court OF Justice, would subject them to
serious penalties and inconvenience,
The purpose in view Of those who
discard the truth in the discus
sion of tariff topics, and resort
to chicane, is easily detected, and has been
exposed so frequently that the people are
becoming disguised with their duplicity,
and are determined to correct the evils
which high protective tariff has inflicted
upon the country. The people are aware OF
the fact that q certain amount of revenue
mvst be collected annually for the support
of the Government. They are also familiar
with the fact that vast sums OF money have
been annually collected in excess of the ne
-eessities of the Government They know
that this money comes out of their pockets.
The demand IL. therefore, for a reduction
of taxation In making this reduction
the people demand that the prime necessi-
ties of life-articles in universal demand
shah bear the Iightest burden of taxation,
and that Iuxuries shall pay the higher tax.
The people are willing to be taxed for the
support of the Government. They are not
willing to be taxed for the support Of cor
porations or individuals. Tariffs so framed
as TO reverse the will OF the people, like that
which has been in existence for quarter OF
o century, aud still exists is a cruel curse
upon the people, and they will change It.
They will not abolish the tariff;
they will not demand free trade.
