Protection Fetters Exports and I'm
n0Fra.

This is an assertion often made by tn
advocates Of freq trade. The assump
ton In that people abroad will not Blu,
Of US while we put tariff barriers in tn
way of their selling to us. Our grea
foreign trade, with its aggregate o
81, 400, 00O, 900 in 1880, an increase o
some $500, 900, 900 in ten years, growing
under q protective tariff, and larger fol-
these years than ever before, refute'
that assertion.
Look back and we shall find our ex
ports and imports increased in our pro
tective pgiods, and grow less whenever
we approached the tariff for revenue
only. Outexpor,s TO Great Britain in
1879 were over $500, 600, 900, our expor Is
only 500, 100000. They bought our
grain, cotton and provisions because
they needed them, and our duties on
these articles did not stand in the way.
We buy coffee from Brazil, tea from
China, aud sugar from Cuba, largely
because we want them, but these couu-
tries do not buy of US half as much as
we do from them.
Let us see how an able English pro
tectioniss meets this assertion in tha,
country. Sir j. b. Byles, in "Sophism
of Fres Trade" which has passed
through ten editions in England, said
in 1880
"our answer to this assertion is an
appeal to facts. A nation has adopted
the theory and practice Of protection to
the same exten. as England no nation
has, at the same time, so extensive and
lucrative foreign trade, for centu-
ries the greatest foreign trade in the
world. In truth, the domestic activity,
industry and prosperity, fostered by
the protective system, is the surest basis
of a permanent, extensive and mutual
foreign trade. In the first place, with
protection and Ger, ain home market,
have arisen the means Of purchase. -
Under a strict and jealous system o.
protection, we have seen the rise oil
Manchester, Birmingham, Shelf cid
Bradford and other cities. We have
seen skill and machinery brought t
protection. Protection has not limitet
the invention or Superseded the il
geuuity of our countrymen. Ca tn
contrary, our cotton and woollens AM
hardware are the best in the world
What England might have been with
out protection from foreign manutac
turers, we know not. She might hav
been what Ireland is now without Pre-
lection from English manufactures,
But i. is certain that with protectio
the means of purchase have been cret

A DEMOCRATIC journal of this city
is endeavoring to create dssension in
the Republican party, by asserting that
the coming contest for the Republican
nominee for Mayor will te a partisan
fight, but it is very eviden. that it is
talking about matter of which it is
totally ignorant. We would inform all
concerted that tho.e never was less dis
sension in the party, aud that never be

There appears to be something radi-
cally wrong In the management OF the
streets Of our city. When put in good
order they are liable to bo dug up by
the gas company or water department,
and the proper repairs are very rarely
made with any degree OF promptness.
In some instances where the pavement
has beeA torn up, year or more has
passed away before it has been put
down. such negligence is inexcusable.
Whenever the pavement shall be torn
up for any purpose it should be re-
placed at the earliest practical moment.
The rule should also be applied to the
| bed Of Streets. We hope the Street
Commissioner will do his duty in this
matter, and see that the Water De
partment and gas company also d.
theirs. Whenever they tear up TIL
pavement or dig up the streets for an.
lparpose whatever, TIC repairs should
be promptly made and all cause of com
n'aint removed.
