There Is labor in every pound of iron,
every yard Of cloth. every gallon of wine
imported into this country. This foreign
labor displaces SO much American labor.
II less wages are paid to this foreign
labor than American laborers receive. tho
constant tendency of the importations liz
to reduce wages here to European stand.
ard.
Whenever In our folly we have tried
free trade. or an approach to free trade,
our laborers have lost first their high
wages, and then their employment ut n
wages whatever. Our manufacturers,
undersold by cheaper foreign production,
were forced to close their furnaces, mills
and factories. and our workmen and pro-
prietors exhibited to the nations OF the
earth the spectacle of a people claiming to
be great, sitting in idleness and poverty,
waiting for the growth of sufficient pcliti-
cal reason to n a nations industry
from utter ruin by 6 restoration of pro-
tective duties on foreign impor.ationa.
The right to protect your labor is as
sacred as the right to protect your lives.
And the duty to do 30 is just as obliga-
tory. Your title to your own country's
market is supreme. No foreign competi-
tor has any right whatever. In it. Shut

petitor is In every piece of cloth. every
ton of rails, every crate of crockery, every
ton of copper. every bundle Of carpets

An Actor in Honolulu.

Booth told a very amusing story when
he vas here last of q. trip he took to
Honolulu, when he was younger and
knocking about California. Some actor
came up from Australia who had stopped
at the Sandwich Islands. He iniamed
Booth on the subject Of that dramatic Ell
Dorado. He scraped together all the
money he could and went to Honolulu.
He had fifty dollars when he arrived.
With that money he hired the theatre for
five weeks at ten dollars a week. He
found two or three people and made ar
rangement to give q show. 1t was to be

The question of billing the town arose.
He managed to get some posters, but he
had nothing to stick them up with. He
bought a bucket of ''poi" and some starch
or stuff that would help 1t, mixed his
paste and sent o small Kanaka out to put
up the bills. He didn't see any when he
went out, and investigation disclosed that
the small Kanaka had eaten up all the
paste and thrown the posters away. He
begged some Of his company to stick
them up, but they were all too high toned,
and Booth had to go off himself in tho
middle of the night and paste his bills up.
He said he came back with fifty dollars,

It is quite popular among tariff reform
ers to refer to the workingman as poor
and oppressed. and to claim that none but
capitalists are gaining in wealth In this
country. They do this without regard to
statistics or to the evidences Of material
prosperity which abound on every hand.
Take the savings banks deposits for an
instance. From 1872 to 1886 they in.
creased from $6e9. COO. COO to $1,235. 0o0,-
