A TARIFF FOR PROTECTION.

1t is the first duty Of good government
to protect the rights and promote the inter.
es,s Of .speople. The largest diversity Of
industry is moot productive OF prosperity
and Of the comfort and independe once Of
the people. We therefore demand that
the imposition Of duties on foreign imports
shall be made not for revenue only. but
for raising the r.quieito revenues for the
Government. Such duties shall be levied
40 10 tGJrd security to our diversified in.
dustries and protection to the rights and
wages OF the laborer, to the end that active
and Intelligent labor aB we'll as capital may
have its i7ss reward and the lsbofing man
his full Share in the national prosperity.

has failed completely to relieve the people
OF the burden Vi unnecessary taxation by a
wise reduction oil thesurplus. The Rspnb.
lican party pledges itself 10 correct The in.
qualities OF the tariff and 10 reduce the
surplus, not by the viclous and indiscrimi.

such methods as will relieve the taxpay or

PRELIMINARY to his testimony before
the Springer Committee yesterday Colonel
Bliss entered into lengthy explanation of
his connection with the Government as
attorney since his employment in the Star
Route cases. 1t was developed that he was
appointed at different times as attorney for
the Government, and that the $57, 900 which
he testified Wednesday as having received
for services was only portion of the money
that has been paid him by the Government
for services. He testified to having re-
ceived fees several times for cases he pre-
pared on Sundays. The Lord only knows how
much money this man has gotten out of the
Government during the past four years.
He has acknowledged to having received
fees in about two dozen cases. What they
all aggregated cannot be estimated, yet he
had the efirontery, in the face Of about
100000 fees received, to say that he had
lost money by appearing for the Govern
ment Shades of Ananias
The Evening critic., 1884-04-04

BLISS admits that his witnesses were un-
reliable and not worthy of belief, yet he
attacks the jury day after day and impugns
their honesty because they would not be-
lieve them. Mr.. Springer, too, takes occa-
sion frequently to slur Washington juries.
These gentlemen must know that the two
petit and the several grand juries which
have incurred their virtuous indignation
were composed of some of our most repu-
table citizens-men who stand as high for
intelligence ana probity of character as any
in the country. 1t Is time that this
wholesale abuse of Washington juries by
such characters should cease. 1t is an insult
to the whole community.
