Republican members, who constituted
a majority.
The injury conducted by this body
commenced with the session at WASH
ington, on the 9th of July, 1882, and
closed as far as public hearings were
concerned, on the 18th Of October. 1t
visited nearly all the large cities OF the
country, excepting those of the Gulf
States, where an epidemic prevailed,
and held fortY-One public sessions for
taking sworn evidence Of manufsc-
turers and experts. Its conclusions
were irTesistibly forced On reluctant
minds by the pressure Of truth, which
was so strong that unwilling eyes could
not he shut TO it. And yet, the inquiry
thus constituted, thus prejudiced, end
ed in a recommendation for a revision
of the tariff far more radical and ex-
tensiye than the one now proposed in
the House of Representatives. The
object Of the commission was precisely
that afterward described in the Demo-
cratic platform of 1884, "to revise the
tariff in a spirit of fairness to all inter-
ests."
Were the Tariff Commission OF 1882
and the House of Representatives that
passed the bill to authorize it "free
traders? Both simply reached the
conclusion inevitable on any respOn-
sible examination, which is that for
the sake Of the industries of the coun-
try, for the sake of American labor, in
order that it may be really protected
and have a chance to. enjoy the bene-
fits of that protection, the system of
war taxation must be intelligently re-
modelled, and the financial congestion
resulting from plethora of the peoples
money in the public treasury, relieved.
The record Of 1882 made by the Re
publicans in Congress aud by the COM
petent body they constituted exposes
and utterly eOnfOunds the monopoly
cutlery raised i'm the platform adopted
at Chicago. The Democratic contest
is simply one Of anii-mOnOpOly sgainst
monopoly; for real protective tariff
against sham protection, that has be-
come as inimical to the industries of
the country as it is TO its financial aud
commercial interests.

Stock his answer was 81 have a
family to support, and ualess L figure
to do as the majority of painters 1
might starve, as I never would get a
job. And reputation is worth nothing
to any painter outside of a half dozen
or so who get what little there is to
do by people who are willing to pay a
fair price for good work"
Another thing should be mentioned
which is one ola thousand that might
be enumerated in an article of this
kind. This is the way in which Jobs are
done in Finishing IN natural woods. -
The specifications call for shelIac Of q
good quality. In place Of this, which
costs them s. to s. so a gallon, a vast
deal Of the work is started with glue
and wafer, or, as it is called, "gIue
size" that costs about 40 or so cents
per gallon. Then the specifications
call for coach varnish at $3.50 TO So
per gallon, and the low bidding painter
uses an article which cost 81 or less,
aud thins II down with oil that cost a
good deal less. To protect the owner
the best plan Of all is to deal with none
but first-class house that won't take
cheap work; have all the stock for a
job bought in unbrOken packages as
they come from the factory, see it mix
ed on the premises and have no mixed
cOlOrs brought to The premises and
none taken away until the job is COM
pleted. BY taking lead and oil paint
and pouring some on a piece Of char

ingOt of lead will be found in the ashes.
Painters who use much whiting in
stead of lead have to keep constantly
stirring their "cOlOT'' to keep it from
settling. The first coat or "priming"

if you can rub it off in that way IL

Mr.. Thomas q. Bond,

in an interview with him he expressed
himself substantially as follows:
Under the new Inspection Law, as
! understand it. tobacco planters may
ship their crop anywhere or in any.
way they choose. May send it to
State Houses for Inspection or send it
there for storage without having it
inspected therein, or it may be ship
ped with instructions to the agent to
forward to Free Warehouses at Locust
Point or Canton or may order it sent
to New York or a foreign market
without having it pass through a
Baltimore Warehouse. Because OF
these conditions Inspectors will not
know whether or not to take tobacco
for State warehouses unless 1t be so
consigned by the planter. To expedite
business farmers should mark on
their hogsheads whether for storage or
inspection and also indicate the ware
house to which they wish it to 60. II
this be neglected the tobacco will
likely lay on the street for half day
or more, or until the agent gets
around with his letter.
