Prot and Free Trade Defined.


: To our correspondent writing from
: Knoxville. Tenn, who announces himself
"a friend to Protection, /" we reply as fol
lows:
l. A protective tariff is tariff which
provides for the imposition of duties upon
the importation of foreign goods suffi-
GENTLY high to enable American manufac-
turers to compete successfully in the home
market. The duty on steel rails is an ex-
ample. A high duty was placed on i'm
ported steel rails, and the result was the
prompt establishment and rapid develop
ment of that industry in the United
States, it now being far greater than that
of any other county. If foreign rails had
been admitted free of duty. or under
duty ''for revenue only" no steel rails
would be made in the United States to.
day. A very important effect of the es-
Enlistment and protection of this indus
| try has been the wonderful reduction of
| prices.
2. Free trade-absolute free trade-is
the admission of foreign goods into our
ports without the payment of any duty
whatever. Thus, free trade pure and SIM
pie would neither establish nor protect
American industries, nor produce revenue.
But tariff ''for reven ne only'' is practi-
cal free trade so far as the foreign pro-
Queer is concerned. The duty on tin
plates is an example. The duty on these
ig 90 low that the tin plate industry can
not be established in this country.
The foreign producer therefore has,
practically. free access TO our ports there
being no domestic competition, the con-
sumner is obliged to pay the duty. Thus.
the only effect of tariff for revenue only
is to produce revenue and to enable the
foreign producer to exact whatever prices
he chooses.
Protectionists favor tariff that will
provide revenue enough for the wisely
economical administration OF the Govern
ment and that will at the same time de-
yelop and protect every industry that is
natural to the country. This makes our
country wealthy and independent in peace,
breeds and gives work to skilled artisa ms,
and makes good home market for the
farmer.
Is not this Q good platform for every
wise and patriotic American citizen to
stand on

The Cost of Tin-Plates Here and in
ENGLAND.
from the American Manufacturer


Tin-plate costs $500 per box in England.
and SOL in the United States. according
to the calculation of Pittsburgh experts.
| This would seem to afford a very sound
reason for buying our tin-plate in England
and turning our own labor to more profit
able account philadelphia Record.
This means, practically, that the con-
sumers of the United States should pa
tronize English workingmen. in preference
to American workingmen, for the reason
that the former work for lower wages than
the latter. This is all there is in it. If
it were not for the difference in wages in
the two countries tin-plates could be made
as cheaply here as in England. Besides
this, the Records argument would apply
to steel rails and to every other product
which cannot be man ufactured in the
United States as cheaply as in Europe. on
account OF the difference in wages. Thus.
the few avenues into which 'sour own
labor" could be turned ''to more profitable
account" would be wofully few and ruin
ously blocked. What is really needed is a
still greater diyersifcation of employment,
not its further confinement, and the estab.
lishment in this country of the tin-plate
industry would be an important step in
the desired direction.

Effect of Home Factories on Prices.
From the American Manufacturer.

The following is an extract from late
report to the Department of State by Con-
sui VIM. A. Brown. located at San Juan
del Norte, n icaragua;
"In South America there are scarcely
any factories, and the many botanical
stuffs. drugs, dyes, minerals. ETC., that are
shipped therefrom to the United States
come back manufactured, and bring a
higher price here than in the States.
Quinine. fer instance, properly prepared
for use in the United States. though indig.
ious to these countries, sells for from two
to three times as much here as there.
The same may be said as to wool and hides
sent to the Union and returned here in the
shape of shoes, harness, carpets, etc."
The experience of South America was
ours while we depended upon Europe for
manufactured goods, paying for them with
our crude productions and gold and silver.
We we're obliged to pay enormous prices
for what we imported and sell at low
prices what we exported. We could not
help ourselves. The foreigners were in
position to say to us, What are you 60
ing to do about it ?" Well, we could not
do anything at the time, but it set great
many patriotic and wise men to thinking.
and in due course of time our reply was
the adoption OF Protective Tariff, which
has increased domestic manufactures many
fold, caused great reductions in prices,
given lucrative employment to millions of
skilled workmen. created far better mar
ket for the farmers, made us strong in
peace and in war, enabled US to throw off
the CALLING yoke of foreign dependence,
and made US free industrially as our fore
fathers made us free politically.
Shall the system which has done so
| much for US be recklessly abandoned in
the struggle for political power, and it's
grand results madly thrown away

The Virginia Case.

1t is not understoo by Republicans gen.
orally how the Committee on Credentials
at Chicago reached their conclusion in the
Virginia case. The delegates at large ap-
pointed at the Malone Petersburg Con-
vention, were recognized as formally Sc
lected in conformity to the requirements
of the State organization. The district
delegates, appointed at Conventions held
within the districts, were admitted to
seats, because their appointment was in
accordance with the call of the National
Committee. In the LIST district there was
no convention held. Consequently the
delegates to Chicago. appointed at Peters
burg, were admitted, rather than that the
district should not be represented at all.
The same considerations applied in the
case of the 9th district, where the district
convention was informal. While there
was inconsistency in admitting the dele
gates from the 9th and 1st districts. un-
der the rule adopted, it was considered
better than not to have the districts rep
represented

A Democratic Statement of the
Situation.

Tha New York San, the leading Demo
cratic paper of the country, under the
caption, "RepublicanProspects- The Dem
ocrats Must Wake Up" utters warning
to the exhuberant Democrats, which will
not be without disheartening effect. al.
I ready many Of them have called in their
clacquers and bandannas, and put on
their studying caps. Notably among the
serious thinking is the Petersburg Ladea-
Appeal, which clearly points out the diff
liculties in the way of Democratic sue
cess in New York, without the electoral
vote of which Cleveland's election is an
imrossibility. The Sans article is very
suggestive, and to it we call the attention
of both Republicans and Democrats. 1t
reads
The Republican Presidential ticket OF
Harrison and Morton is not likely to set on
fire any river, East or West, by reason of
its briliancy or merit, or to inspire in any
corner of the land a high degree of enthu-
siasm +; but it is ticket shrewedly and
skillfully selected, and when its points of
political excellence are perceived the Dem
ocrats will find themselves obliged to make
a more vigorous and actiye fight than they
now seem inclined to do.
Gen. HARRISON nomination, produced
by two of the adroitest of Republican man
ayers, New and Dudley. against obstacles
in the convention which seemed insur-
mountable, depends for success in Mo-
venber on very simple electoral calcula-
ton. In 1884, Blaine and Logan. despite
Mugwump detection, carried the follow

In 1910, Martin Van Buren,, when rum
ming for second term and in favor of
free trade, made the profound remark
work for six cents a day and a mutton
chop, under low tariff, than to get two
dollars and roast beef under high tariff.
But an unbelieving public showed him un.

by tremendous majority. Another New
York Democratic President, running on a
similar idea, is destined to the same fate,
under the inspiring lead of another Gen.
Harrison. of the same stock.

A Parallel.

In 1910 the Democrats nominated Mar
tin Van Buren,, New Yorker, as thell
second term candidate for President. I'm
der his administration from 1886 to l940
the departments were run upon the ex-
tremest partizanism. ITO the victOrs be-
long the spoils'' policy was mercilessly en-
forced, and ''reyenue only policy had
brought the country to the verge of ruin.
The Wings, believing in protection and
an honest, practical civil service, nomi-
ted Gen. Harrison. the grandfather OF the
present Republican nominee, for second
time The result was that the Democracy
was overwhelmingly defeated and Harri-
son overwhelmingly elected.
In 1888. a similar contest is before US.
We have New York Democratic Presi-
dent, who has been nominated for sec
ond term. Similar conditions exist in
the departments, except that free trade is
not enforced, because the Democratic par
ty in Congress is powerless to enforce it.
The Republicans have nominated a grand
son of the Harrison OF 1910, and the par
alIel will be carried out by the second de-
feat of New York Democratic Presi-
dent aspiring to a second term, and
the enactment of ''reYenue only' legisla-
tion, which is substantially free trade.

Our Democratic friends who have started
this campaign with so much ado about the
Chinese, should 90 slow. We have large
amount of native labor here, which can
perform all the laundry work that is to be
done in this community. But that DOM
exactly suit the notion of the high-fyer
Democracy, so they prefer to employ Chi
nese labor and Chinese laundry right IN
their own midst. The Democrats can vote
to drive the sheep out of the country, to
destroy the wool interest, but they stand
by the Chinese when it comes to putting
the shine on their collars, although there
is plenty of willing home labor ready to do
the work as we'll as it was done for their
fathers. The pig-tail will have to go be.
