TARIFF REFORM MEETING.

A meeting of citizens interested in tariff
reform was held at the office Of Hon. Wash
ngton Bushnell on Wednesday evening.
About twenty persons were present, among
whom were A. b. Smith DR.. Macarthur, J.
r. Shaver, W. Bushnell r. +. Mackinlay,
D p. Jones and others.
The meeting was called to order by Mr..
Bushnell, and A. b. Smith was chosen tenn
porary chairman and VI. Osman secretary
At the request of the meeting Mr. Bush
nell explained its object. He said the
meeting was not for the purpose of for
warding the interests of either party; not
to convert republicans into democrats, or
democrats into republicans, both of whom
would be left to vote for their respective
candidates; but TO adopt such means as
would oppose protective tariff, the mem
bers being at full liberty to advocate II
revenue tariff with free trade as the ulti-
mate object. The organization, should one
be effected, was to be strictly non partisan.
For one he was willing to adopt any meas
urc for the protection of the people and
was opposed to any one who advocated
high protective tariff. The tariff we have
had since 1912 protects but comparatively
few. The speaker affirmed he was "A free
trader before he ever voted, is one now,
and proposed To die one.
j. r. Shaver endorsed all the previous
speaker had said and declared the protec-
tive tariff a detriment to the working
classes. The manufacturers, who are made
public paupers by the present system
make prices just high enough to exclude
foreign goods. The recent strikes among
working men illustrated the evils of high
tariff. If we must have public paupers let
congress vote them SO much money direct
to keep them.
Esquire Smith affirmed that by the pres
ent high tariff system the poor men pay
two and three times the amount of taxes
that the rich do.
ID. p. Jones was heartily in favor of the
movement and thought il time toresist the
high tart II oppression, enacted years ago.
If we can not have free trade let us have IA
modification of the present system 50 that
the burden shall be taken from the people.
He referred to the depletion of the Amer
lean pineries of the North and the abund-
ance of lumber just across the line, kept
out by high tariff.
Dr. Macarthur endorsed all that had
been said.
r. f. MacKinlay was free trader from
the word go and would stand by this club
High tariff was not protection To the Amer:
lean labOrer but TO the man who makes
the money on the goods.
Moses Osman was in favor of approach
ing free trade as nearly as possible. Not
in favor of taking money out of his pocket
