The Question Of Free Trade and Protso-

lult
THE GAZETTE likes fAir-minded
and intelligent discussion Of public
policies, where the end sought is the
truth, aud not mystihcation by falae
statement and uusound deductions no
we take cspt cial pleasure in complyin
with the request Of Texan who Ia
another column asks "whst will be
the benefits that are supposed will
arise from free trade 20 and we will
try to tell what some Of those benefits
will be, and how free trade will affect
manufacturers.
Texan could not vote for Cleve-
land because he is supposed TO be
for free trade. Did "Texann vote for
Mr.. Wellborn for congress- II so, he
did more toward advancing free trade
than II he had voted for Cleveland.
II we have free trade II will be through
the action Of congress, which must
enact free-trRde laws. The president
has nothing to do with II. He could
veto tree-trade law and thus kill IL,
but he could not do any thing toward
making one, Now, right here let II be
understood that no party in this
country Is in favor Of absolute free
trade, That Is only convenient
approximate term that has been
adopted 10y those who are opposed TO
the present high tariff tax and In favor
OF lower one. Democrats do not
contend for the removal OF all import
duties aud the admission OF foreign
goods free. They only ask for re-
duoticn OF duty TO q strictly revenue
basis, They hold that tariff tax
should he levied for the support of the
government alone, and not for the en-
richment OF private individuals, ms Is
now the case, and that only so much
tax should be levied as will support
the governments no more. The Nor
rlson blll,n which created such con 1.
sternation among pIotectionists and
was stigmatlzed by them as free
trade bill. was far from such thing
II intended general reduction OF
tariff duties 20 per cent, but specially
provided that no reduction should be
made below the Morrill, tariff rate Of
1861. The Morrill, bill was prepared
by n Republican protectiouist and
passed by Republican congress for
the avowed purpose OF protection to
American manufacturing interests.
II must, therefore. have been
a protective tariff Az the rate pro-
posed by Mr. Morrison was not to 20
below the rate established by the pro.
tectionlsls themselves II Is hard to see
why they call II an effort to introduce
free trade. This much as preface to
show "Texann that the Democrats are
not absolute free traders, and that that
term ia used for want Of better aud
more specific one to denote purely
revenue tariff.
We think free trade remember the
meaning OF the term will benefit the
country In many ways. 1t viii stlmu.
late competition in industry, and that
Is 10 the advantage OF employer as
well AS employed. 10 win destroy
monopolles, and In their destruction
reduce the cost Of production. These
statements are susceptible Of proof

or the forty-four Democrats who
voted against the Morrison bill in
congress, only eighteen have been re-
turned. or the one hundred and
thirty -Dine who voted for II more than
one hundred are returned. When the
people get whack at their represent
tatives they know how to punish such
az fail In their dntY.

THE Indiana Democrats will con-
tlnue their campaign organization

to make the state ''surelyn Democratic.
The performances OF some OF the

Democrats careful about making that
state too certain. There il nothing 40
uncertain as SURE state.

EXPANSION OF Expert
ments with gelatine dynamite have shed
curious light on the expansion of explo-
sives The test is made by inclosing the
compound in cavity of lead whose walls
are very thick, capable of uniform attenua-
tion, but resist rupture until the last limit
of tenuity is exhausted. By exploding
thirty grams of No. l gelatine dynamite in
cavity whose capacity was fifteen cubic
centimeters, the space was enlarged 1880

establishments the time has been reduced
to an average of eight hours. In thirty
nine establishments wages have been re-
duced to an average of l24 per cent, affect

Sudden stoppage of Oil Wells.

rapidly declining. The wells, which added
thousands Of barrels to the stocks above

the CONSERVATION of the owners. Generally
nitro-glycerine will revive the production,
but not always. The oil trade is praying
that the wells NAV prove dry

Production of Pig Iron.

PITTsBuRG, December 5th-A project to
restrict the production of pig iron by bank
ing furnaces for a month or more has been
allowed TO die quietly. Instead of further
restriction, reports received at the Office of
the Pig Iron Association in this city, are to
the effect that number of furnaces will
blow in during the next month In view
of complaints of dull trade and low prices,
the resumption of work seems paradoxical,
but it is stated that the stock in hand is
much lighter now than at any previous
time for years, aid that, while there is no
prospect in the immediate future for better
prices, there is room for more iron than
is piled in the yards at present
