will be the sturdy champion Of equal
rights, rights of the just, of corporate
privileges, of capital, of labor, and Of
the people. He will be the sincere
friend Of economy and honesty in every
branch of the Federal government. He
will be the determined enemy of privi-

glitter and false pretense. He will adj
vocate the return of republican simple
ity He will favor the enforcement of
the law against all malefactors of high
or low degree, whatever their official or
political influence may be. Civil service
reform will be his practice, not his pre-

provisions will be his guide. He will
be the champion of republican freedom,

A very intelligent friend Of the Home
journal wishes to know how We stand
in regard to the question Of Protection
that Just now is being agitated by the
leading politicians and newspapers o.
the country, and which promises to b
the main issue in the next Presidential
contest. We fear there will be II great
er division in Democratic than in Re
publican ranks in regard thereto; new
erthcless, this fear should not operate t.
the suppression Of honest opinion, fol
we conceive that principles should moi
be made secondary TO party success. II
gives US pleasure to believe that large
majority of the Democrats, and many Of
the Republicans, are opposed to Pro.
lection. Individually We are opposed
10 it in every form, because We believe
it neutralizes the gifts Of Providence.
We are for competition as the life Of
trade-ior free exchange, believing it t.
be to humanity what the Gospel is tC
the heather. If no tariff existed trade
would certainly regulate itself by TIT
law of supply and demand. This is ,
trnism that no ono can gainsay. Why
then enhance the values OF certain
commodities by high protective tariff
thereby forcing the few, who might BE-
able, to buy from manufacturers al
home, whose pockets alone would be
filed and not the Golfers of the general
Government2 Protection is unequal in
iis effects and will continue to be so un.
Ill all things, trades and professions, are
protected alike. We regard it us mere
fallacy to suppose you can enrich a
country by the enactment Of prohibitory
laws III order to force the production Of
certain commodities at home. This sort
of political arithmetic has fallen into
disrespect in England, as it will in the
United States when properly under.
stood.
Purposing, when wo have more space,
to write more upon this subject. we will
simply say to our friend that we are OPP.
posed to Protection in every form, and
favor competition to bring down profits
to healthy level. keep alive the encr-
gies of those engaged, prevent inordi,
nate rise in the value of anything, and
let capital seek investment upon the
free trade principle. Protection eu-
hances the cost of all things to con.
,umers, and benefits only the compare
lively few who are manufacturers. In
short, we look upon Free Trade as "God
