Oaptain Jones was asked to-day whether one

i do not know what MIR Carnegie may have done
personally, but have made no special effort TO
oring mon from other cities. 1t is not necessary
because the news that our big steel works
aoont TO start up Is known al over the country,
and steel workers will gather at Braddock from
al points OF the compass by the hundreds;
large number OF these may come from Johns
town, FOR all know. There is one thing certain,
there will not be any trouble about securing auy
number Of competent men"
Mr.. Carnegie, | ON informed, has a mag
nificent castle in Scotland. / believe, also,
that Mr.. Blaine, the late Republican candi-
date for President, had very recently on
1oyed . somewhat protracted stay with this
gentleman At his Scotland homo when he
Illuminated his protective platform in the
professed interest of labor last winter in the
shape OF an interview on the subject of the
Presidents message.
Again, Mr.. Chairman, all this discussion
about the benefit OF the tariff to labor has
been confined to those classes of laborers
commonly known as mechanics and those
who work In the mines and in the various
workshops. Tho great millions in the fields
and upon the Plantations not only IN the W est
and Northwest, but in the South, are for
gotten In this great race for profit and for
wealth. In order to shut out foreign goods,
to enhance the price Of American goods, you
Will keep upon the American farmer, North
and South, . tax OF IS or So for each head
OF . family, producing . surplus over and
above that which he pays for the legitimate
expenses OF the Government and also the
four or 1--we times that amount which, by
reason OF the prohibitory tariff, he con-
tributes to the manufacturers. 1t is not ths
amount which IL taken by the Government,
and which 1t needs, Of which he complains;
for, repeat, it 10 the four OF five times that
amount which he is compelled to pay from
day to day upon the necessariss of life, and
which goes into the pockets Of the manufao-
tureru.
