about the desired change, and to
them the honor and praise deserved.
That wrong exists there are few
to doubt, though differing material
ly as to the way in which it should
be righted.
Of the thousands of strikes that
have occurred in the last ten or a
dozen years the majority have either
been ignominious failures or dam
aging victories, and the manual
worker has been the loser in Ell
Their case. The reason for this is
obvious: 1t is as easy for a camel
to shamble through the eye OF
needle as for the manual worker to
control the capitalist. The odds
are entirely against it. And were
they not, the time never has been,
aud we doubt much if it ever will
be, when there is sufficient union
of workingmen to accomplish sue
cess in this direction.
The majority of strikes are or
ganized by some disgruntled or
dissatisfied person, who works up
on the minds of his more ignorant
and easily led brothers, who fool
ishly contribute to his support as a
leader, while lessening the pros
pect for gaining their own support.
This fact is evident from an obser-
walton of the element in which
strikes have their origin and -four

Of the effect produced by these
i'll considered movements, the ex-
perlence of time tells plainly, and
is more apparent where least able to
be borne.
The capitalist may lose money,
but the laborer loses bread and
clothing. 1t is an undoubted loss
', to factory owner or manufacturer
to have his property and the CAPT
tai invested lie idle, but he can live
and has the means OF obtaining a
living in other directions.
With the manual worker it is
different. His time is his capital,
and unless invested where it is earn
ing'fair dividends, or at least keep
ing the principal good, is very soon
felt in a manner that cannot long be
ndured, even though one emulate

INSTRUMENTATION.

IF there shall still remain larger rev.
enue than is requisite for the wants of the
government, we favor the entire repeal of
internal taxes rather than the surrender
of any part of our protective system, at
the joint behest of whisky trust agents of
foreign manufactures. From the Re-
publican platform.
With what unblushing efrontery a
demagogical press and the free trade army
of blowers and strikers charge the Repab-
lican party with being free whisky par
ty The language of the seventh para
graph of the Republican platform admits
of no such construction. 1t is only an
other striking proof of the determination
of the Republican party to completely
protect the interests of the country
'Rather than the surrender of any part of
our protective SYSTEM" is so significant
and plain that the most stupid should
understand it. A venal press publishes
and their miserable followers, by mis-
representation and vituperation, reiter-
ate that the Republican party has adopt
ed free whisky platform. Misrepre-
sensations and exaggerations are the only
weapons left TO the Democracy. Such
methods on the part of the opposition
only bring them into contempt. Intelli-
gent discussion of public policy is what
is wanted. 1t only proves to what des-
peration the unterri6ed are driven The
cry of "Stop thief is raised for the evil
dent purpose of warding off suspicion.
But the people are reading and thinking
to-day. No more blind adhesion to a
rump concern. The barriers of party pre-
JUDGE have been swept away. Intelligent
discussion of governmental policy will de-
termine the supremacy of party. Will
any citizen with genuine American ma
tional aspirations long hesitate which to
choose-Cleveland's message, which, if
adopted, portends untold disasters to our
common country, or the Republican plat

Iewal of national prosperity, but fur

timent have any doubt.

Prices under a Protective Tariff.

The attorneys for free trade, who seek
to create prejudice against the policy of
protection by charging that it enhances
the cost to consumers, can best be met by
q comparison of prices of a few articles In
common use.
In 1860 salt, then on the free list, sold
to consumers at an average price of So
per barrel. The tariff on salt in barrels
is now II cents per hundred pounds Cor
say 3311a cents per barely, and the aver
age price is not more than half that of
1860. As salt has been made the subject
of special attack, it may be well to ascer-
tain just how much of the present selling
price gees to the manufacturer, against
whom it 10 sought to create prejudice. In
1887, at the works in Michigan, salt sold
for 60 cents per barrel, and of this sum
20 cents was paid to tie cooper for making
the barrel All between this price and
that paid by consumers went for trans
portation and profits of middlemen.
The manufacture of plate glass was es-
tablished in 1866, when the foreign-made
article sold for $3.50 per square foot. The
tariff on similar quality of glass is now
so cents per foot, and the price has stead
lily lowered until it is now rs cents per
square foot.
Pig iron, in 1860, sold for $22.75 per
ton. With a tariff of 1912 per ton it
now sells for $18.
Steel rails were first made here in 1867,
when the price was $166 per ton. Tbs
tariff has been as high as $28 per ton, and
is now $17 Steel rails are now quoted
at $31, and have sometimes been lower
