Staunton vindicator. [volume] (Staunton, Va.) 1860-1896, 1884-03-07

The Washington correspondent of the
Baltimore Sun, a ''tariff-reform' paper,
speaks of the congressman opposing the
Morrison tariff bill as the fractional ele-
ment.'' Here in Virginia, where four to
one of the five Democratic con gressmeD
oppose that bill we call the one faction
al element. It appears from the follow
ing that any effort to abolish the internal
reven ne tax is to be characterized as an
"endeavor to compIicate the question:
The correspondent says:
fayorite scheme agitated in the hIgh-tariff lob
by is to endeayOr to cOmplcate the question of re
vision of the tariff with propositions affecting the
Internal revenue system. therefore if Mr.. Nor
rison fairly gets his bill bel, re the House, amend
ments relating to internal revenue taxation will be
fred at it from all quarters OF the protection
camp.
We think we have read in the columns
of our esteemed contemporaries, the Rich.
mond State and Norfolk Ledger, that both
Tariff eform and the abolition of the in
ternal revenue would be accomplished by
MIR. Carllsle's Committee of Ways AMI
Means. Is it possible that our cotempo
rarles could have been mlsled as to the
Carlisle movement, and that the Virgins
Democratic platform itself is to be set
upon as fractional element ?"
The advocates of the Morrison bill II
Washington are adopting the ex raordlna
ry method of cbaracteriZlng in advance
those Democratic congressman who op
pose it, as "bolters." The charge is abso
lutely without foundation. The Demo
cratic members of congress have neither
by caucus nor in any other way made the
Morrison bill party measure, nor mil
then. Like all other tariff measures it is
business and not party measure and can
not be put in the latter position. It be
gins TO look as if it would be necessary fol
the people to take hold and put the 'Tar
iffkeform' experimenters in the rear
where they belong, in advance of thu
National Democratic Convention.

TIE House of Delegates was wise enough
last week after adopting an amendment
TO the tax bill reducing the tax from 40 to
50 cents, to reconsider their action and
let the old tax stand, The vote stood 40 to

Washington letter IN Richmond State
Mr.. John S. Wise has discovered that he
made one great mistake III the matter of
eXtinguishirg the cot f1agratiOn in bis
kitchen. He forgot to secure clear
route upon which to retreat f ON the uu-
ienable position he so hastily assumed
when testify ing before the Danvlle COM
mttee. Senator Vance became aware of
the change in the official report, and at
once took steps to prevent the original re-
cord of what the rash young man had
really said, being lost or destroyed TAX
ing with him a reliable witness he visite d
the stenogI apher, one Babcock, an en-
ployee of Senator Sherman, whom he COM
PEELED to show him, as a member of the
committee, the original transcription
from his short hand notes, together with
the rewritten report made at the dictation
of Wise. The young man was er joined
on the oath taken to maze faithful re-
port OF the testlmony,uo preserve this first
transcript for the use of the committee
He was cautioned not misay the paper or
let it pass from his possession under any
circumstances. This Mr.. Babcock pro-
posed to do, and after having the two re-
ports read to them again, the visitors
left.
Washington letter in Alex. Gazette 1T
is currently reported to-day that MIR. John
Wise, though bis testimony before the
Sherman Committee was given under
OATH after the row that testimony kicked
up among his c>lored supporters, got per.
N sslOn of Mr.. Sherman TO alter the stem
ographic report OF that testimony, did
Cha e it in essential particulars and
founded his explanatory letter upon the
testimony so chan Led. 1t is understood
that this action of Mr.. Wise's was dis
covered by little inesse on the part of
Mr.. Vance, who had been informed that
the short hand reporter was the private
secretary of Mr.. Sherman. He asked Mr.. !
Sherman if it would be allowable for one
of this white witnesses who was not GER
tain about a statement he had made to
have the report of his testimony altered j
in that respect ? Mr.. Sherman replied it !
would, rtmarking that Mr.. Wise had
made some changes in his testimony. Mr..

A caucus of the Democratic emberS,
Wednesday night, resolved to close the
present session March 18th, and apply to
the Governor to call an extra session, in
view of the large amount of business yet
pending. They have, with the Straight
out Republicans, two-thrds in the Sen
ate, but lack in the House two of snfii-
Gent number to make the call mandatory
on the Executive.

Manufacturers md Wages,

A The census OF 1850 gives very compre.
4 l,ensive table OF the progress OF manufac.
turing industries in the South, and the
comparison OF other States with West Vir.
ginia is not by any means odious. In
West Virginia the number OF establish.
ments arc 2,375, while Virginia has $40.
3 The invested capital OF the former is sl3,.
4 Ss3 800, and the latter So6,0GS,09O. The
\ greatest difference between the two States
{ is in the number OF hands employed. In
the Old Dominion 0,lSG hands find en-
iploymcnt, while West Virginia, with one.
half the number OF establishments, en-
!tploys 1881. West Virginia, however,
pays out in wages A,3l3,965, and Virginia
/ $7,3l3,0G5. Tho value OF the material
used in Virginia industries is So, sS3,033,
and in West Virginia, sl4,027,3Ss.
Tho value Of the product in
the former State is s5l, 7sO,o9o, and in the
latter 500 ,sG7, l25. South Carolina has
nearly the same number ofindustries and
employs 900 more hands than West Vir-
ginia, yet she pays only one-half the
amount in wages. Alabama with, the
same number OF industries but n less nun.
Der Of hands pays only half rs much in
wages. The remainder OF the States are

The Farmer and tho Tariff,

The great object OF the protective tariff
is to create diversified industries more thur
10 foster any special class. The farmer
reaps his reward where manufactures are
: promoted by tariff laws, and he is not (
sufferer, as is claimed by the Theoretical
free traders. Protection not only benefits
the farmer but the farm laborcr.
In regard to this phase OF the all-mpor.
/ tant issue OF the campaign the New York
I. Tribune says: i Compare, for example
the two States OF Michigan and Indiana
In manufactures and non-agricultnrl
pursuits is liity-cisht; in Indiana it is
forty-eight. The reports Of the Depart
'mentof Agriculture prove that the value per
capita OF farms per acre and also OF the
products OF agriculture, constituting the
farmers income, is greater in Michigan
than in Indiana, and also that higher
wages are paid to farm laborcrs. When
both Michigan and Indiana are compared
with States which have made greater
progress in manufacturing, and contain
smaller proportion Of agricultural pop
ulation, the same rule is found to hold
true. Diversity labor, promote new in
dustries, and establish successful manu-
features, and you will benefit the farmers
by creating markets close ut hand, and by
making their land and their products
more valuable, and thereby adding to
their income, and you will increase the
wages, not only OF artisans employed i'll
new manufacturing enterprises, but Of
laborcrs rs well. Protection protects the
farmer in very real Sense.
