RELATION or LABOR AND CAPITAL.
Wages are undoubtedly reduced whom an
industrious man is not able by his EARNINGS
to live in comfort, educate his children, and
lay by sufficient for the necessities of age.
The reduction Of wages, inevitably conse-
quent upon throwing eur home market open
to the world, would deprive them Of the
power to do this. It would prove great
calamity to our country; it would produce q
conflict between the poor and the rich, and
In the ssrrowful degradation Of labor would
plant seeds Of public danger. The Republic
can party hes steadily aimed to maintain
just relation between labor and capital.
guarding with care the rights Of each. A
conflict between the two has always led In
the psst, and will always lead In the future,
to the injury of beth. Labor Is indispensable
TO the creation Of the profitable r.e of capt.
tai, and capital increases ths efficiency and
value Of labor. Whoever arrays tho one
against the other 10 an enemy Of both. That
policy Is wisest and best winch harmonizes
the two on the basis Of absolute justice. The
Republican party has protected

A frequent accusation by our opponents is,
that the foreign commerce OF the cor utry has
steadily decayed under the influence of III,
protective tariff. In this way they seek to
array the importing interest against tho Re-
publican party. 1t Is a common and yet rad.
ical errer to confcund the commorcs OF the
country with its carrying trade; an error
often committed innocently and sometimes
designedly, but an error so gross that 1t does
not distinguish between the ship and the
cargo. Foreign commerce represents the
exports and imports Of q country regardless
of the nationality Of the vessel that may
carry the commodities Of exchange. Our
carrying trade has from obvious causes sur.
fsred many discouragements since 1860, but
our foreign commerce has In the Same period
steadily and prodigiously increased in
creased, indeed, at q rate and to An amount
which absolutely dwarfs all previous dsvel-
opments Of our trade beyond the sea. From
1860 to the present time the foreign commerce
Of the United States, divided with approx.
mate equality between exports and Imports
has reached the astounding aggregate az
twenty-four thousand millions Of dollars.
The balance Of the vast commerce inclined
In our favor. but IL would have been much
larger II our trade with the countries Of the
American continent, elsewhere referred 70.
had been more wisely adjusted. II Is difz-

TsENG's LETTER.


Paris, January % Prime Minister
Ferry recently wrote the Chinese
charge d'affaires, asking If the letter of
Tseng, Chinese ambassador. to
F,eischer, editor of the Deutsche Revu
of Breslau, was authentic. Ferry re-
ceived the following reply: The editor
o. the Deutsche Revu of Breslau
wrote on several occasions to
Tsrng, asking to be furnished
with information In regard
to the Tonquin matter, ana
Tseng replied through his secretary
that while accepting the general re-
sponsibility for the ideas expressed in
the letter Of the charge d'afl;ires, Tseng
was unable to be answerable for the
use made of it by The editor of the
Deuts che Revu, as the letter merely
gave information without any part'c-
lllar Significance. Marquis Tseng
never thought the letter would be
made public, or that It's
contents would be imported to
Count Won Hatsfelt, the German min
lister of foreign affairs, and he was
therefore unable To foresee that the
French papers would interpret the
letter as an ofi.nse. The charge 'af-
taiies states 10 Ferry that lseng. is OBJ
liged 10 support the government oil
China with energy, but Is always care
full 10 observe proper conduct as an
ambassador, especially in any aliusions
he may make to the powers to which
he Is accredited.
