The true northerner. [volume] (Paw Paw, Mich.) 1855-1920, 1884-01-03

The democratic party claims 30 be the
great party of economy and reform. But a
democratic House of Representatives assem-
bled on the first Monday in December, and
nothing has been done yet. A month was
consumed by the newly elected speaker in
making out his list of committees, in other
words, in placing his men where they could,
in his Judgment, do the most good for the
democratic party. Perhaps about the time
congress really ought to adjourn, the
House may get ready to begin business.
But there is little prospect of any legis-
lation being accomplished, looking to the
prosperity and benefit of the country. A
presidential campaign is at hand, and be-
tween the anxiety of the democratic majority
to advance the prospect for democratic success
and nervous attempt TO straddle the tariff
question, for fear of alternating their free
trade allies on the one hand, or protection
democrats on the other, they will find but
little time for legitimate business. The
boosted reform which the country is to have
from the bourbon party has ever been but a
sham and burlesque, but the present demo-
cratic House bids fair to eclipse all its pre-
decessors in that line.
The true northerner. [volume] (Paw Paw, Mich.) 1855-1920, 1884-01-03
sheen Husbandry,

The revenue reformers" claim to favor a
tariff for revenue only, pure and simple.
They are opposed to even incidental protec-
ton. Now let us see how this would work.
Such tariff would remove the entire pro-
tectiye duty from wool, for instance. This
would destroy the great industry of sheep
husbandry i'll this country. Within sixty
days after the passage of such a law, wool
growers would be killing their sheep for the
pelts, and leaving their carcasses TO rot in
the fields. Fifteen years ago Just before the
duty was placed on wool, farmers everywhere
did so. A protective tariff was placed on
wool and see the billions of dollars this in
dustry has since called into the pockets of
our people. Never mind this say the free
traders, down with protective tariffs. "We
want tariff for revenue only" they clamor
This means a tax on articles we do not our
selves grow, produce or make. And 50, to
illustrate, tax is placed on tea and coffee.
And who is benefited? Not human being
in the world, except that the government
gets revenue therefrom. 1t seems, how
ever, that the people of this country will
have to pay an extra price for every pound
of tea and coffee they use. On the one
hand, then, the abolition of a protective
tariff has destroyed the great wool growing
industry of the country and impoverished
millions of our farmers. On the other, a
tariff for revenue only has compelled our
people to pay an increased price for the
staple necessities of life, tea and coffee.
The abolition of the tariff on wool would
greatly profit the sheep growers of South
America and the wooden manufacturers of
England, all at the expense of our own peo-
pie. The tariff for revenue only on tea and
coffee would not benefit anyone, but would
be direct tax on our own people, to the ex-
tent of the amount raised, on the necessa-
ries of life-CharlOtte Republicans.

for they might devour his mush and milk
and so ruin his social business.
A couple of town boys went skunking
few days since and dug out nine of the high
Nv scented animals. A fur dealer offered
them 800 for the lot, and he do his own
skinning, which offer the boys refused. They
claimed that they could get two gallons of oil
worth 5000 per gallon, and have the birds
left. This skunk business is becoming quite
an enterprise. A good skunk hunter of tenn
perate habits, with O double barreled shovel
can make money.
Thomas Galligan one of our old veterans,
had family reunion at his house last Sat
urday, his 74th birthday. There were about
thirty persons present, including all his
children and their families, and all had a
good time. The table was filed with oil
that heart could wish, prepared by Mrs.
Tommy, one of the best cooks and smartest
old ladies in IL counties. No after dinner
speeches were made, most of the company
being too full for utterance, so full, indeed,
that it was thought some of them would
have to be rolled on barrel, but wiser
counsels prevailed and no accident happen
ed. The old gentleman is wide awake and
full of feas, and can attend more religious
meetings in week than all his sons can in
a month. All agreed that the next time he
had 74th birthday reunion, they would at
tend if in their power so to do.
