Wages And The Tariff.

The average duties on articles subject
to duty in this country exceed As per cent.
Now, even should it be admitted that
wages are higher in this country because
of protection, it cannot bScontended that
wages enter into the cost Of manufactures
to such an extent as to necessitate such
a duty as this. Protectionist advocates
have even been known to declare, in
their Jealous defence of the laboring man.
that all they asked was that the duty
should be sufficient to enable the manu-
facturers to maintain wages at their
present rate. Suppose wages in this
country were twice as large as in anv 9TH
or country, which they are not, and that
wages entered into the cost of manufac.
tured articles to the extent of go per cent,
which is above the most liberal estimate
only so per cent duty would be required
to enable the manufacturers to maintain
the present difference in favor of thu
American rate of wages, and he would
still have all the advantage of proximity
to the home market in competition will
his foreign competitions. But as matte
of fact wages in this country are no
nearly twice as great as in any othe
country, and it has been conclusivel,
shown that in many branches of indus
try, the higher wages paid in the Unite'
States arc relatively less calculated on tn
quantity Of goods produced than III Eng
land. Germany or France. Moreover,
unlimited immigration of foreign labo
is admitted in this country. how can an
rate of duty maintain wages at the pres
ent rate?

Cattle For Montana.

St. Paul, June l5.-The Montana
cattle business is represented here just
now by Mat Ryan, Jr., of Leavenworth,
Kas., and NJ. R. Draper, New Mexico,
who are enroute to the Musselshell II
range in northern Montana where the
Ryan brothers and Mr.. Draper have ex.
tended herds. Mr.. Ryan is directing
the movement of 1000 head, which are
now on their way northward to the
Mussels shell. He has been away from
Montana for several months, having
wintered in Texas and New Mexico
In his opinion the movement of cattle
from the south to Montana this season
will not reach the estimate of 6O,0O0 head
made some time ago, on account of
THE ADVANCE IN PRICES,
together with the uncertainty about
getting Texas stock into Montana that
obtained prior to the modification of the
quarantine regulations. As it is now
cattle are being shipped up from the
Panhandle of Texas To the vicinity ol
Fort Fetternnan, and driven thence via
trail into Montana without much trou

this connection it is learned that sever
