The NATIONAL TRIBUNE.
WASHINGTON, D. C., MARCH is, 1856.
DEBATES IN CONGRESS.
Take TEE NATIONAL TRIBUNE to Get
Them,

Now has begun the most important time
for the soldier of the whole session of Con-
gress. That body is settling down to real
work, and whatever it will do is now being
outlined and determined upon.
No soldier or friend of soldiers should be
without THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE now, of all
times in the year. 1t is watching with un-
ceasing vigilance everything that is sug-
gested or done for the soldier, and keeping
him correctly informed from week to week
as to the progress of legislation concerning
hin. No other paper does this, or can do it
80 well as THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE.
Do not let yoarse! miss number.
See htat every one Of your comrades takes the
paper.

STRIKES.

The Spring has, as usual, opened with
strikes in all parts of the country. This
year these have been more general and far
reaching than at any time since 1876. But
the wOrkingmen have learned a great
deal since that eventful period in the
history of American labor They have
found ont that while public opinion is usu-
ally with them at the outset, it is turned
against them the moment they allow force
and violence to enter into the discussion
Consequently this year the strikes have been
very orderly, and though thousands of men
at time have participated in them, with
their feelings naturally wrought up to high
pitch, no violence has been offered to any
one, employe or employed, and the strikers
have detailed men from among themselves
to guard their employers property
and do whatever else might seem necessary
to prevent its injury. Thus during the
strikes on the New York street railroads,
the strikers sent sufficient force of men to
water and feed the horses, and on the Gould
railroads the strikers guarded the shops and
freight yards, and took care Of the engines
until the Receiver relieved them.
There has also been most cheering progress
in the manner of settling disputes between
The National tribune., 1886-03-18
NATIONAL WASHINGTON c. THURSDAY MARCH 49, 1885,

employer and employed. The demands of
the latter have been intelligently formulated
and argued by competent leaders, with whom
the workingfnen seem astonishingly well
supplied. In all the contests the leaders of
the strikers have shown themselves fit to
cope with the ahlest men the companies
could bring against them. In the strike on
the Gould system Master Workingman Pow
derly has, beyond doubt, shown to much
better advantage in the discussion than the
Receiver, or the chief officers of the road
who have tilted against him.
We shall have reason to congratulate our
selves on this. 1t shows that we are on the
high road to satisfactory adjustment ofthe
relations between labor and capital, with all
the parties to the discussion able to argue
their case before the bar of public opinion,
and willing to abide by its decision.
The National tribune., 1886-03-18

If the amount of money raised by duties
upon the articles in the last list had any ref
erence to the amount needed by the Govern
ment for pension and other purposes, there
might be some basis for the demagogic
charge that liberal pensions will make high
taxes But such is not the case. These du-
ties are arranged without any regard what
ever to the amount of money they will yield
the Treasury. Speaking in general terms,
the less money they raise the better they
answer the purpose for which they were
framed. For example: If the duty on sugar
should operate to reduce the importations
from 2, 2,578,000,000 pounds which they were
last year-to nearly nothing, and cut down
the revenue from thissour from 81 100000
a week to a nominal amount, the measure
would be regarded as a grand success, for
then we would raise at home the $100,000000
worth Of sweet-stuffs that we now buy
abroad, and the people engaged in producing
homegrown sugar would eat up the excess
of agricultural products that now trouble
our farmers. What is true Of sugar is true
of every other item on the tariff schedule,
outside of the luxuries The duties were
imposed and are maintained for the purpose
of building up important industries, which
the welfare Of the country, and of every
man, woman and child in it demands shall
be built up. ANY attempt to reduce these
duties will meet with the sharpest opposi-
ton, not only from the men directly engaged
in the production of the articles which are
protected, but from the millions of clear
seeing voters, who realize how the country's
wealth has been increased by protection, and
who dread the business pr0stration that
must inevitably follow any disturbance of
the industrial fabric built on our present
system.
The conclusion of the whole matter is
this: We have built up by decades of trial
and costly experiments a revenue system
which has no equal in the civilized world
for honesty in operation, equity and fairness
to all, and the lightness Of the burdens it
imposes upon the people. So remarkable is
it in this respect that not one man in a
! thousand is conscious Of being taxed at ALL
Still it produces every year a surplus OF
many millions of dollars The Nation is
| asked to avail itself of this wonderful oppor-
tunity and use this surplus to discharge
the debt of honor and justice which it owes
the men who sacrificed themselves to save
its life. 1t will dishOnor itself inconceivably
| if it does not.

Gen. John A. Logan, as is well known, took
part in the first battle of Bull Run as a

He has written sketch of the battle which
for vividness of description and historical
accuracy surpasses by far any account of
that famous engagement ever written. 1t is
a wonderful bit Of picture-writing, and will
be welcomed by all of our readers, not only
on the distinguished authors account, but

THE investigation of the Soldiers Or
pbans' Schools and Homes in Pennsylvania
have been made with thoroughness that
reflects the greatest credit on Gov. PattisOn,
his Attorney General, and the GAR. Com
mittee, consisting of Comrades Louis Wag-
ner, VIM. McClelland, A. G. Rein@hl, Ezra
II. Ripple and w. n Jones. The condition
Of affairs was found to be bad enough every
where, and at Mt. Joy positively frightful
At the latter place the boys and girls are
reported to be living in indescribable filth,
without proper food or decent clothing, and
their morals rs bad as their physical situa-
tion. 1t is amazing that, in State like
Pennsylvania, things have been allowed to
60 on this way so long. But now we are
promised, and shall unquestionably have, a
reformation that will be genuine and lasting.

Tree State, born at Damariscotta Feb 9, 1899
When he was but nine years old-in 18f8-his
parents removed to Brunswick, where he was
given good common school and academic edu-
cation. His parents wished him to add a col
legiate course but his father was prominent
shipmaster, and the boy had imbibed taste for

No one except the consumers of these artl-
cles wants the duties on them reduced a
single mill. They are articles that are al
ways taxed heavily in every country, and
very Justly. The difference between our
selves and other peoples is that we tax these
things on entering the country, while in
Europe they are taxed in the passage to the
consumer. The only one Of the above duties
that any one would feel inclined to abate
would be that on silk, which is now an arti-
Gle of daily use in every household. But the
silk duty is protective, and it has done won
ders toward building up in this country
manufactures that employ thousands Of
skilled operatives and furnish home market
for millions of dollars worth annually of the
products Of our farms
The amounts received from these two
forms Of taxation on luxuries aggregated last
year S149O87 ,260, OF nearly one-half the
entire revenue of the Government for 1856.
The bulk of the remainder of the income of
the Government was derived from the fol-

NY. EMPLOYMENT BUREAU
The Good Work it Is Doing for Comrades.

The first annual report of the Bureau of En-
ployment and Relief of New York will give an
idea of the good work it is doing i'll behalf of
the veterans. The committee has worked ear
nestiy, and wherever employment could be pro-
cured for a comrade they have gone personally,
and in many instances the work was secured
for their applicants. During the year 3l2 COM
rades from the various Posts of the city have
registered for employment. The following viii
clearly illustrate the work of the committee:
The Gas Consumers Association of the city
last April required the services of "a men, and
of these "a the Employment Bureau secured
appointments for 13 Grand Army comrades.
Three men were also employed by the Metro
pOlitan Life Insurance Co. as canvassers. Work
was also got for men in almost every capacity
clerks i'll hotels teamsters, Stablemen, etc. The
committee have been extremely active and sue
ccssful in getting discharged men reinstated,
no less than four employed in the Department
of Public Works having been put back in their
places, and in many instances they have eX-
erted their influence in reinstatIng men in
private positions. In the matter of sick and
destitute comrades who in many cases were
refused admission to the hospital, the commit
tee has done much good. In some instances
they have procured their admission to institu-
tions for the sick, and in others have given
relief. During the year also 231 veterans on
their way to Soldiers Homes and pending their
admission thereto were taken care of by the
committee. One hundred and thirty-sev
veterans have been buried under the auspices
of the committee. These comrades had lost
their discharges, and the committee through
their eXertiOns SO far Strengthened up their
records as to entitle them to burial by the Gov
ernment.
The Pension and War Claim Department of
this Bureau has been eminently successful, and
the committee has saved to needy claimants
during the past year not less than $4,000, which
they otherwise would have been compelled to
pay to attorneys and claim agents. In the way
of temporary relief the Bureau has issued / .437
meal and lodging tickets to needy veterans.
The remains of four veterans have also been
removed from the pottersfeld and inferred in
the soldiers plat at Cypress Hill Cemetery.
