Hugh MoCulloch For cleveland.

Hugh McCulloch, secretary of the treasury
under three republican administrations, will
vote for Cleveland and Thurman next month,
if the weather should permit him to 60 TO the
polls. at his summer home and legal residence,
in Montgomery county, Maryland. Mr.. Me-
Culloch has high regard for Mr.. Cleveland and
for Mr.. Thurman personally, but his chief
reason for supporting them is that they stand
for liberal and progressive reform of the
tariff Mr. McCullOch refers TO his letter 10
the Philadelphia academy of music meeting.
which indorsed the presidents message in
January last and to the following recommen-
datiOns from his own annual report as secre-
tary OF the treasury, in December, 1888:
l. That the existing duties on raw materials,
which are to be used in manufactures, should
be removed. This can be done in the interest
of our foreign trade.
Q. That the duties upon the articles used or
consumed by those who are least able to bear
the burden of taxation should be reduced.
This also can be effected without prejudice 10
our export trade.
Mr.. McCulloch had hoped that the republican
national convention would this year ADOPT
similar declarations. On the contrary, il made
economic declarations which render 4 impossi-
BILE for him to stand upon its platform or sup
port its candidates. he had hoped TO see the
republican party take liberal and progressive
position on the tariff, but as IL had abandoned
this position TO the democrats and taken a re-
dictionary course, he has been compelled 10 turn
away from il for a time He still hopes that
the republican party by defeat or by some
other means, may be brought TO its senses, so
that men of liberal ideas can once more affiliate
with il.

.erhe Vote in the Wrong Scale"

On April %, 1882, Ben Harrison voted
in the U. S. senate to admit to this country,
free of the Chinese restriction act, all
Chinese skilled laborers" and Chinese
engaged in mining"
Sec. 10 of the Chinese restriction act
reads:
''Sec. Is. That the words Chinese
laborers,' wherever the same occurs, shall
be construed to mean both skilled and I'M
skilled laborers and Chinese employed in
mining"
Senator Harrison voted to strike that
section out. (Cong. Record, April rs, 1882,
vol. Is, p. S,41l.)
When the Miller twenty-year exclusion
bill passed by vote of % ayes to 10 nays,
Senator Harrison was absent, but Senator
Maxey, his "pair," announced that, if
present, Senator Harrison would have
voted no.
In the effort to pass that bill over Pres
ident Arthur's veto, which failed for want
of two-thirds majority, Senator Har-
rison's vote was one of the 81 nays against
% ayes cast. (Cong. Record, vol l, page
2,517.)
On Senator Hoar's amendment, provid-
ing for the admission of Chinese artisans,
the vote stood 10 ayes to "a nays, Harrison
voting aye. Gong. Record, vol. l., p. 1,7l7)
On Senator ingalls, motion to change
the period of restriction from twenty years
to ten years the vote stood-ayes, 20;
nays, 81. Senator Maxey, who would
have voted mo, stated that he was paired
with Harrison, who would have voted
"aye"
/ April %, 1882, Senator Harrison voted
for the Edmunds amendment to the clause
providing that "Chinese laborers" should
mean persons usually engaged in manual
labor. (Cong. Record OF that date.)
The second anti Chinese bill, prepared
after President Arthur's veto of the
twenty years bill, suspending Chinese
migration for ten years, passed the senate

TAXING THE FARMER.
An Apt Illustration of the Workings of
the Tariff.

Bart Woods in Crown Point star-repl
Gov Gray, in his speech at Crown Point to
illustrate and show how the tariff works on the
farmer supposed case: That South Bend
sold pillow for So, but Lake county, to pro
tect pillow factory at Crown Point imposed a
tariff duty of s. on each pillow brought into the
county, thus shielding from competition the
factory at Crown Point. BY this system a pillow
bought at South Bend would cost
the Lake county farmer S17, Sl2 for
the pillow and s. for protection" But the
Crown Point pillow factory making equally as
good pillow will sell it for Sl5, g lower than
South Bend, thus securing the trade, so the
farmer in Lake county buys at the Crown
Point factory pays $l5 for the pillow and this
price is made up as follows: S12 for the pillow
and s. for protection" But says the advocate
of protection" the Crown Point factory will
pay higher wages; not a bit OF it.
There is no duty or obstacle 10 the way
TO prevent plow-makers from anywhere
coming to Crown Point to make plows; there
is the duty on the imported pillow, but none on
the man that makes the pillow; hence IL is fair
to say that the Crown Point plow-maker can
hire on the same terms as the South Bend
plow.works; that is, he Will give the market
price for the labor he hires 10 make the plows.
o that as 10 the cost of labor both are equal.
Now, how does this business transaction af-
feet Lake county farmers? They are Ameri-
cans; they represent most certainly american
labor" but here in this case you are reversing
this policy so Landed by protectlonists. II is a
scheme TO take from the farmers. This is a
strange way 70 protect his American labor"
Lake county buys about 1000 plows each
year. Then the tax on Lake county farmers
would be 5000 each year, sum suti-

"The Arrow of Sarcasm"

'My fellow-citizens, short time ago 1
happened to be in place where, without
inconvenience, could see these fellows
working, and it was as good as a circus to
see how they went about it. They had
about dozen in the gang and a boss
they must have boss, even if there are
only two or three of them. They were
laying stone crossing across street, and
/ do believe that any two stalwart men
could have done more in day than that
gang did in three. They were all smok-
ing. [Laughter.] Almost every fellow
had pipe in his mouth. Now, it is usu-
ally inconvenient for a man to work and
smoke at the same time; the pipe is in
his way if ne is in dead earnest about his
work. Ii you men have to smoke, you do
so when you are through work
at noon. But these fellows =
had plenty of time
to smoke. [Laughter.l One of them
would take out tobacco and roll it in his
hands to grind it up fine, and leisurely
tuck it in his pipe. Laughter Well,
after striking a light he would take his
shovel and start off toward the gravel pile.
Instead of bringing the gravel where they
wanted it, they had it about rod away.
If it had not been so far away that man
would not have had exercise enough that
day to keep him healthy. Laughter. ]
He would go to the pile and get his shovel
about half full, look carefully at the place
where he was to put it, set his shovel
down on the ground and look around.
[Laughter.l And then another fellow
would come and borrow his shovel to do
something with, and he would sit there
until the fellow came back with the
shovel. "-Harrison's attack on the street

SOME PROTECTED" LABOR.
What an Indianian Recently Saw in High
Tariff Austria.


Tariff Austria.
Extract from Letter OF Tos Gent of Columbus1
While speaking OF Austria we remem-
Der that the subject of protection and a
protective tariff for the protection of la
Dor and the interests of laborers is now
being agitated in the United States. We
can not, therefore, close this letter with
out saving something on this subject.
Austria and Bohemia, in Austria, where
we remained long enough to make
thorough investigation of the manner in
which Austrian labor is protected, dem
onstrates very thoroughly what protec-
ton may do for the laboring classes. In
Austria they are taxed at home and
abroad. In most cases the import taxes
prohibit the importation of all such arti-
cles into Austria. A cigar, which would
cost in Columbus cents, if imported into
Austria would cost 80 cents. We give
this as a single instance out OF many.
Every other thing which comes into Aus
tria is taxed in like manner, and unless
they are absolute necessities thew cannot
be had there. Austrian labor or laborers
to-day are the poorest paid, the poorest
equipped and tho least cared for of any
people on the face of the earth. For in
stance, an austrian bricklayer is paid 80
kreutzers per day-one kreutzer is the
one-hundredth part of gulden,
and a gulden is worth 40 cents.
Farm laborers are paid in a manner moth
ing; if they get what they eat and wear
they are very happy. All the Injuries Of
life, such as might beimported from other
countries and secured fairly cheap, are so
highly taxed that they are beyond the
reach of all except the aristocracy. In
Bohemia the women mix the mortar and
carry the bod, and perform large portion
of the farm work, because men are unable
to earn enough, or are INDECENT or in the
army. Here soldiers are paid six cents
per day. Walters and servants about
the hotels are paid nothing and de-
pend entirely on what they can get
given them by the patrons OF the
hotels or restaurants. The women carry
all the milk to market on their backs; the
average Australian woman will pick up
wooden tub, which is mounted with suita-
The Indiana State sentinel. [volume] (Indianapolis) 1868-1895, 1888-10-31

BILE straps for hanging to the shoulders,
and carry it six or seven miles, this tub
containing from fifteen to twenty-five
gallons. They carry all that is to be sold,
in the shape of vegetables, butter, cheese,
milk, eggs, and everything of the kind to
the market on their backs. Any Ameri-
can laborer who believes that protection
will benefit labor should go to Austria,
and look at the result of Austrian protec-
ton. About this question of protection
we shall have something tosay in another
letter, as we have taken particular pains to
make diligent inquiry into the matter of
protection on this side OF the Atlantic.

cient to employ good many men to the best
advantage. II could be used to tile-drain,
build slos, and employ labor to improve the
farms and increase the productive wealth of
the county.
How is it with the farmer who buys one
pillow? Put plows on the free list, let them
come in untaxed, and for SO he has the pillow,
and has s. to buy a pair of boots or shoes,
work for the shoemaker, or he can keep it; he
has good right to it; he has earned it.
This is fair illustration of the protective
policy; it cuts both ways on the income of the
farmer; every exchange is against him; he buys
under a system whose plan and purpose is to
increase the price of nearly everything he buys,
and he sells at prices fixed in the worlds mar
ket. This protection" reduces the purchas-
ing power of every dollar earned the farm,
thus reducing the income.

THE ISSUE.
Shall the Taxes on Necessaries or Those on
Whisky Go?
IN. Y. cOmmercial-Advertiser.l

IN. Y. COmmercial-Advertiser.l
When you buy q coat, hat, pair of socks,
dishes for your table, knives and forks, window
glass, salt, lumber, nails, hardware of any kind,
tools, implements of husbandry, or any other
of the ten thousand manufactured articles that
you must have, or any article that has been
transported on steel rails, you pay heavy tax,
a small part OF which goes into the government
treasury while the rest goes into the pockets of
men who grow rich by taxing all the rest of
the people. If you are unwise enough to drink
whisky you pay tax on that too, but every
cent of it goes to support the government
The revenues Of the government are greater
than are needed.
The president and his party propose to re-
duce or remove those taxes which you pay
partly 10 the government and partly to a fa-
vored class OF rich men on the common neces-
saries of life, so that your earnings may 90
further, your family live better and you may
put more money away for a time of need.
The republican party until recently proposed
the same thing. Now it proposes instead TO
make the taxes on the common necessaries of
life still higher giving the rich mouopolist a
still larger proportion of what you pay, and if
that doesn't cut down the governments reve-
nues enough to abolish the tax on whisky.
Which of these two shall be the policy of the
government That is the question which you
will help to decide by your vote in November
On which side will you cast your ballot2

In answer to a letter in the last issue of
the Voice in regard to politics in our state.
which so greatly concerns us Jews,
| would say that | am Of the opinion
of the writer when he SAYS that we
should know as "A certainty, and
not as a rumor, that Gen. Hovey is a
slanderer of the Jewish religion and a
narrow-minded person. But we in Indi-
annapolis have been convinced of this al
ready. In the first place, we have read
the order which has been so often quoted !;
and, as that was taken from the records at
Washington, it is certainly verbatim. On
several other occasions he has been heard
In the same strain, and the speeches in
which this occurred have been quoted in
our papers. We are fully convinced that
he is now the same bigoted, narrow
minded person that he was when he
wrote and declared those sentiments in
regard to the Jews long ago, for one of
our Jewish citizens wrote to him asking
an explanation of his language. But Gen
HOvey has never answered him, nor IN
any way refuted the charges made by the
Jews. Therefore, with such evidence
before us, and no denial or apology, are
we 70 be like dumb. driven cattle" and
vote for and put him in office so that he
may publicly SANDER Us again if ne so de-
sires?
Our DR.. Messing is, as you have said, a
good Jew, but If he believes Gen Hoyev
10 be worthy of our votes, why does he
not explain the latter's words OF long ago.
and his present silence2 We would be
only too happy to have such an explana-
ton from our esteemed rabbi, for il seems

without any reason for so doing, and with
avery reason for not so doing.
Comments Of Jewish Voice.
Our indianapolis correspondent in a
few pertinent words explains the question
a. TO whether or not our brethren in In
diana should cast their votes for the re-
publican gubernatOrial candidate of that
state. Hovey is fanatic and bigot, and
no matter whether democrat or re-
publican, the people with the noble
instincts of right and Justice, and
with that highest command OF the
truly democratic dispensation of these
United States before their eyes, ought to
do everything in their power to keep this
man out of Office. OF course, we are still
in the dark as TO what may have prompted
the Rev. DR.. Messing TO defend Hovey.
Ayel and we do not know what bust
ness a rabbi has in politics. Whether
as citizen or rabbi be has but one
vote; let him cast that one as his
political conscience may dictate-but
there his duty ends. The rabbi has no
right either in or out of the pulpit TO in
duce, guide and influence his people in
the casting of their votes; he has no right
either in or out of the pulpit to express
himself, where he knows that such ex-
