A western Judgment Upon Free Trade.

Nature did not design William
Il. Morrison for great leader
The mould in which he was cast
forbids it. But it may well be
DOUBTED if any one could carry the
present House of Representatives
to the goal of MOrrison's aspira-
tons. 1t has too many men in it
who represent important industries
more or less dependent upon the
maintenance of a tariff for Protec-
ton. There are few Democratic and
no Republican districts counted
solid for Free Trade. In word.
enterprise, development, diversified
industry, and general growth are
steadily narrowing the range of
Free Trade and lessening its rela.
tive strength. IfMr. Morrison were
Webster, Clay, and Calhoun all in
one his ability would not be at all
adequate to the arrest of the inev-
table causes. They are gradually
marching along, under the banner
Of Protection, achieving victories
without fighting battles, through
the force of agencies having no di-
rect reference to politics or pOliti-
cal economy. Every iron-ore bed
worked, every sheep sheared, ev-
cry spindle, lathe, or other machin-
cry moved, every enterprise liable
to unfair foreign competition, all
unite in opposition to any such
measure as the Morrison bill. No
lobby is necessary, no combination
even. BY rarely erring instinct
of selt.preservation the capital and
labor engaged In these various ways
work together the same result. 1t
is not necessary to fan ar into an
open vacuum. Nature will look to
it all, In much the same way there
are vast agencies at work BY their
inherent force and inevitable laws
to warn off such calamity as the
passage Of the Morrison bill, and TO
render its consideration even a not |
very probable event.
Mr.. Morrison and his sympathlz. |
ers should make the most of their |
fast-heeting opportunities. The
next Congress will probably be Re.
publican, but however that may he
it is morally certain that the Free
Trade element will be smaller in
the FIftieth Congress than it is in
the Forty-ninth. -- Ch'cdgo Inter
OccdR.

The FlasCo Of the Tariff Thinkers
From the MINNEAPOLIS Tribnne.

From the Minneapolis Tribune.
No considerable portion of the
people of the United States have
desired that Congress should make
any important changes in the rev.
enue laws at this session. Public
opinion has demanded with un-
mistakable emphasis and Lnanlml-
ty that the tariff question be let
alone. 1t was in the face of this
overwhelming sentiment that Mr..
Morrison prepared his bill, chang
ing the tariff schedule in many I'M.
portant respects. The ostensible
objects ofthe measure was to reduce
an alleged surplus revenue and
thus to relieve the country Of taxa
ton alleged to be burdensome. To
be sure there was no complaint
from the consumers of taxed com.
mOdities that the indirect taxation
imposed by the Federal Govern
ment was particularly burdensome.
Neither was there any surplus rev.
enue to get rid of. The most
elementary calculation suificed to
show that the estimated revenues
of the country for the coming fis-
cal year would barely suffice to
meet regular appropriations, ire
spective of appropriations for new
and special undertakings. Revenue
reduction would mean difficulty in
meeting ordinary expenses, and
of course would necessitate the en-
tire abandonment of our policy OF
gradual debt reduction. No nation
on earth gets its income with so
little of burdensOme eXactlon and
no other nation ever before prOpOs
ed to subject itself to unnecessary
embarrassment. The very
idea is glaringly absurd. 1t seems
impossible that sane men could
seriously propose it. The explana-
ton lies in the fact that sane men
have not seriously proposed it. The
p ropositiOn has been all cant and
humbug.
Shenandoah herald. [volume] (Woodstock, Va.) 1865-1974, 1886-07-09
THE CASE IN A NUTSHELL,
From the Phila. Times.

Our sprightly free trade con-
temporary, the Record shows that
396, $40 people in New Jersey are
taxed by a protective tariff for the
benefit Of 1857 people employed
in manufacturing.
Granted that the case is fairly
stated. Suppose that the 1857
were not protected in their pro-
ductive industries, and their pro-
ducts were bought cheaper in this
country because produced by the
cheaper labor Of Europe, would the
306,S79 be better or worse off by
the change
1.-THE 1857 now employed in
diversified industries, producing
additional wealth and consuming
the products Of the labor Of the
396,S79, were compelled 10 close
their mills, shops and factories by
the pauper labor Of foreign coun.
tries and were thrown back into
the channels Of industry in which
the 96,S79 are employed, would
not both labor and wages be great
ly reduced and poverty become the
common lot OF all
The wealth Of every home is in
the production by its own labor OF
what it chiefly consumes, and the
wealth Of every free nation is in
diversifying, elevating and requit-
ing its labor. We could bay cheap
er iron, steel, cotton and wooden
fabrics, and hundreds Of other
things from the degraded labor of
Europe than we can produce it;
bnt where would the money come
from to buy it
Free trade means cheap products,
but it also means cheap labor and
vastly less labor than we now have.
1t would destroy millions Of con
sumers of our products OF the soil
and make them halfstaryed pro.
ducers. with little means to buy
even the cheaper necessaries OF
life under the policy that puts the
labor of America and Europe upon
equality. The case is thus stated
in a nutshell.

Why The South Should be Happy.

From the New Orleans Times Democrat
In summing mp the advantages
which have placed the South in a
comparatively favorable industrial
position the New York TriJHRe,
while in the main correct in its
views, fails to notice one Of the
most important Of all reasons why
labor in the South is more content
ed and prosperous than in other
sections. In the manufactnTin. :
centres OF the East and North IL
working population is very gene
ally confined to tenement house dis
tricts, where rents are high com
lpared with earnings, and the com
orts, even the ordinary decencies,
of life are nearly impossible. All
this, too, in a climate demanding
the greatest outlay for fuel and raj
ment, and under conditions render
ing the attainment of wholesome
food too difficult and costly for the
ordinary wage-worker. In the
South, on the contrary, all existing
conditions are vastly favorable to
the laboring classes. The differ.
ence in wages paid in the East and
South for the same services is not
so great az the TribuRe appears to
believe. Well trained labor nrOba.
bly, gets as much with us as in 9th.
er sections. What is of more i'm.
poriance is the fact that the same
wage in the South will secure for
the workingman about twice the
amount of practical comfort that it
does in the North. Over much the
larger portion Of the section lands
and rents are so cheap that with
very slight effort and frugality the
operative is soon able to have his
own little home. Taking the aver
age of this section, habits Of life
among all classes are much more
simple than in the more highly or.
gained manufacturing and com
mercial communities of the East
Socialism and anarchiSm we have
not yet taken into account. Should
those monsters ever invade this sec.
ton the Southern people are on
record as having very summary and
effective methods for the treatment
of forces and elements destructive
of peace and order.
