10 is an endorsement Of the views eN-
pressed 10y the late Secretary MANNING in
his las, annual report. The taxes to be

foreign markets. Their removal will set
capital in motion by the promise OF better
returns, enlarge the steady employment
and increase the annual income Of many
thousand wage earners, whose prosperity

The furious rage OF the Republican or

4 silly Cry.

Could any thing he sillier than the cutlery
Of the over codiled industries aad their
partisan organs that any reduction in the
war tariff viii bring blue ruin upon the
country?
This country never had a AZ per cent
tariff until ls65. Did it not grow and
prosper up to that date? Have not wages
always been higher here than in the Old
World alike under low tariffs and high
tariffs, Are they not relatively higher to-
day in the uon-protectei than in the pro-
tccted industries? What sense is there in
the cry that il will BE- a calamity to make
sugar and clothes cheaper and TO relieve
salt, lumber and fhres and chemicals used
10 manufactures from needless taxation;
The enactment Of tie Mills bill would
leave the average duty higher than it was
under the Morrill, TaritfIn 1868. 1t wonld
leave It higher than was proposed by the
Republican Tariff Commission in 1882 Ii
will add no more to the free list, with the
exception OF wool, than was recommended
by President Arthur aud Secretary FOlger,
The idea OF running a country by abolish
ing its needless taNos was never before
heard OF in the history OF the world.

worth having, whether it be moral, mental
or intellectual.
If the Boston Pilot, or any other Catholic
enterprise, aimed to erect an irquisition on
the ruins Of our fabric of liberty, 1t has
pursued a very impracticeble course in
the attainment Of lis purpose. 1t should
first attack the American constitution by
ahiliatIug with the party that has favored
a loose construction Of that glorious lnstru-
ment. 1t should hail with delight the
doctrines and men that plead higher law,
popular sovereignty and overwhelming
necessity as a prctext for outraging the
plain letter and spirit Of constitutional
law. Yours respectfully,
