porary good gained would be speedily
lost, the laborer In this country would
be impoverished to no good end in any
event, and free trade would only be-
come a world leveller. All the subtle
ties Of congressional debate cannot
change the plain facts, which are too OBJ
vious to be gainsayed, and in no case
will they change public sentiment.
Having answered its political end, this
debate will pass out Of the memory OF
the nation, but its results in the vote on
tariff will remain to bless or curse the
people for generations to come.

FRIDAY, MAY, a., 1883.
TARIFF DEBATE A FARCE.

The debates in congress over the tariff
bill have degenersted into mere farce.
At recent night session only some half
dozen members we're reported present.
The whole debate seems mere endeavor
on the part of members to impress their
constituents with their profound re-
search into and knowledge of tariff mat
tiers. The speeches show no original
ideas on the tariff problem, and all that
they contain can be found in the news
papers of the day. Even the history OF
tariff legislation Is imperfectly under
stood, and wide awake, obs ervant news
correspondents at the national capital
assert that the principles underlying
tariff measures are not understood by
more than half a dozen members of the
house. There is very little lucidly said
or clearly indicated in the speeches as
reported, and the country is not likely
to gain much from the protraoted de-
bate. The vote, when 1t does come,
will not be upon the merits Of the ques-
ton, but largely along the lines Of party
demands or the local pressure Of consti-
tuences. The profuDdtes of tariff spec
ulations are not desired by the
people in general who are very capable
of understanding the bottom facts and
Judging as to the results of free trade on
the one hand or OF protection on the
other. The tariff Is not a scientific issue,
but question affecting the industries Of
the country, and the one consideration
above all Others in it's treatment Is the
money consideration. With this is nee
essarily involved the labor problem. 1t
is not meant that money alone, indie
pendent of labor interests, is to be the
thing looked for in determining the tar
if or free trade policy of this country,
but it Is meant that money, ss a measure
of labor as well as OF other things, will
come into account above all else. The
idea that all ia considered when the
question of buying cheap and selling
dear is considered, is erroneous, for gov
eminent has duties to discharge toward
American labor as we'll as toward
American capital. The hard sense OF the
average citizen does not need the
subtleties and the sophisms of weeks of
blind debate to determine his Judgment
upon this question, and were 1t not
made political test question, it could
never assume Importance in the public
mind. This tariff debate was origina-
ted for the purpose Of max
ing political capital for the gov
eminent, and not to settle the
questions arising under a non-partisan
examination of the tariff problem. To
those who rate labor as of no value In
itself, and believe that it is a purchase
be commodity to be procured where it
can be had cheapest, free trade ideas
may appear plausible. The result,
however, would be to degrade Ameri-
can labor to the level Of Ooolie labor, and
SO largely reduce the purchasing
power of the labor Of the country as to

ALITTLE TOO SMOOTH.

Our Washington correspondent,
whose communications appear weekly
in this journal, has a very sensational
article on the Blaine situation. There
are many reasons why that article
should be taken with many grains OF al
lowance. 1t is not likely, had the STU
alton been as there depicted, that Mr..
Blaine would have been left In ignor-
ance OF the situation, and II informed OF
it, ia it probable that he would have so
positively refused to permit his name to
come before the convention To the
ardent supporters OF Mr.. Blaine. and the
republican camps are running over
with them, the news Is altogether too
rosy-hued to be accepted on Its face.
Another reason why it is not at all
probable that any such combination
will be made, as that presented
in our Washington letter, il that
Blaine ia from Maine. and De-
pew from New York. Maine is
far eastern state, and New York is on
the Atlantic seaboard. 1t is most i'm
probable that both names upon the re-
publican ticket will be chosen from so
far east. 1t has always been the policy
of the party to distribute the honors, so
as to cover at least the middle and the
seaboard states in making presidential
and vice presidential nominations.
Should lightning strike Maine the Sec
ond time, the strong probabilities are
chat some western man would be select
ed to fill out the ticket. The whole
situation as depicted in the correspond
ence is very rOseate, but to a rejecting
mind 1t does not present the requisite
consistency to entitle 1t to credence. 1t
is too late now to lug in the name OF the
dead New York senator as party 10
any scheme favorable TO the nomination
and election of his mortal enemy, Jas. G.
Blaine. The whole narrative reads like
an attempt on the part of Mr.. ConkIing's
old retainers, who followed him to the
length OF electing q democratic presi-
dent, to restore themselves to the bosom
of the republican party and atone for
their past political sins. AS a means to
such An end, the declarations of that
New York republican, COnkling's friend,
may represent truth and fOreshadow
an action. but as a presidential pointer
they cannot now be accepted as gospel.
BRER CRANFIL will have to put little
more moIasses with his vinegar if he ex-
poets to catch the colored vote this cam
paign. II he continues to get off such
stuff as the dispatches credit him with,
he will find the dark-complexioned
American citizen of African descent en-
tirely too fly. The Floresville Citizen
gives the head center Of prohibition the
following credit mark:
"Mr. CrRnfil, according to the die
patches, has turned his attention from
the "BO Dutch" to the poor cOOred
man. He says 1.-The negro should not be
allowed suffrage" These sentiments
were applsuded by the prohibition con-
vention at Waco. Probably the negro,
like the Dutch, will not down"
The colored vote Of Texas is not going
to be cast for prohibition candidates.
That fact was made very apparent last
August. 1t will be made more so next
November.
