ABATE THE TAX WHEREVER
THERE IS COMBINATION.

1t is open secret, the Democrats
in Congress are afraid to antago-
nize the millionaire beneficiaries of
the tariff. The politicians say, the
masses will be fooled to vote con-
trary to their own interests. We
suggest a road to victory. Let the
House pass this resolution, and we
guarantee it will stampede the pro-
tectionists.
Whereas a tariff for protection
gives the protected manufacturers a
monopoly of the home market, and
whereas they combine to advance
the prices of their products and to
reduce the wages of labor: Resolv
ed: (l) A commission be appoint
ed, with power to send for persons
and papers, who shall discover and
expose all the facts about every
combination to advance prices or to
reduce wages; (2) That wherever
there has been such combination,
the tax shall be abated 90 per cent
every year until the tariff ceases to
protect" the combining manufac-
turers.

THE DEBT.

1t is worth noticing that certain
politicians and newspapers who pre-
tended to be Mortified at Mr.. Mason
connection with the debt, are now
singing a very different tune. The
moment he was employed in this
matter, Mr.. Mason published the
fact and acted openly and without
eoncealment. His employment end
ed, and, we have good reason to be-
lieve, the work he was to do has
been undertaken by men who pro
TESS to have no personal interest at
stake. The difference is, between a
frank man and a sneak. 1t is not
discreditable to advocate a settle
ment of the debt, but it is very dis
creditable to lie about your connect
ion with it. Sooner or later the
truth comes to light.
We propose, if God spares us, to
publish every fact about this debt
matter, calculated to make our Leg
islature act intelligently.

Has Lost Its Charm.
y. Y. World.

For twelve years after the war the
Republican managers frightened
the voters out of making a much
needed change in the administra-
ton. They worked alternately, and
sometimes together, the "rebel
scare" and the business scare"
The voters were told that if the
Democrats obtained power the 'reb-
ell debt would be paid, the negroes
reenslaved and the ''fruits of the
war" lost. The bugaboo worked SO
well that one gleeful spook- manipu
lator proclaimed, sixteen years after
the close of the war, that "there is
one more President in the bloody
shirt" Blind to these lessons, the
Republicans have already brought
out the tariff scare" as their buga-
boo for next year. They think the
people are such fools as to suppose
the country will be ruined by a re-
duction of needless war taxes.
They have nearly a year in
which TO find out their mistake, but
it will not take them half that time.
The day of bugaboos is past.

OBSERVER,

1t is stated as a discouraging fact
by people who think that the ma
tional prosperity depends on making
railroads pay high price for steel
rails that the prices of those pieces
of metal has touched $36 per ton
for future delivery" AS in 1885
manufacturers were producing steel
rails at $27 per ton it would seem
that they ought to worry along now
on even so low price as $3.50. But
there is much dissatisfaction. and
the responsibility for rails not being
as high as $45 to $50 per ton is di-
rectly laid to the present heavy i'm
portations. And yet these importa-
tions continue in the face Of duty
of ST. per ton. The complaint
against the present price of steel
rail is a queer one. We do not hear
that Mr.. Carnegie or any other iron
king has felt called upon to reduce
his personal expenses Can it be
that an effort is really to be made
to place prohibitive duty on iron !?
And, if so, is the very funny argu-
ment to be brought forward that
the country is interested in making
its railroads and machinery cost as
much as possible ? A number of
things point in this direction.-N.

OVERTHROW THE DESPOIL-
ING GIANTS.
st. Louis Post-Dispatch.

The unorganized masses of con.
sumers and producers can protect
themselves against these trusts" in
but one way, and that is through
laws which utterly overthrow and
prevent such giant growths. The
primary object and justification OF
government is to protect the weak
and prevent a powerful few from
wronging the humble many. If we
cannot bring the Standard Oil Trust
into subsection to the law how will
we ever cope with RAILROAD
Trust" organized to evade all the
laws Congress may pass, and to vi
olate with impunity every State law
that can be enacted ?

West Vsiyiiiiia Democrat.

This number begins our fourth
wear When it become known that
we proposed to publish a PUBLIC pa
per as distinguished from PRIVATE
paper; when it became known, that
we would fight for the people, and
could not be hired to fight against
them; when it became known, that
we would print what others found
it profitable to suppress; when it
became Known that we could not be
bribed or bulldozed to advocate
anything which was contrary to the
public welfare, determined effort
was inaugurated, all along the line,
to break us down and to create =
prejudice against us. We doubt
whether any enterprise was ever
more relentlessly lied about and vii
fled. Those in charge of these col
umns marked out the road they
thought best for the body OF the
people. and that road has been fol-
lowed regardless of the elamOr ema-
mating from knaves and echoed by
fools. We believed that West Vir-
gfnia needed such paper as this,
and time has indicated that belief.
The more intelligent men in every
part of the State have come to I'M
derstand that this Journal is what
it processes to be;-a paper whose
opinions are not for sale. The past
three years stand as a witness that
we will not suppress facts, or with
hold opinions, in order to make
money, or to escape the hostility OF
the rich and powerful. We have
never failed to print, $50 far as
space permitted, whatever was cal
culated to give the public charae-
ter of information heretofore kept
from them. Looking back over the
past three years, we can truly say,
that nothing in these columns has
ever been prompted by q personal,
or by a selfish motive.
The coming year will be full of
interest. Al no time in all the his
tory of this country was it so i'm
portant that the rank and file should
comprehend political issues. The
tariff protected millionaires will eX
haust every effort to retain control
of Congress; the railroad managers
will strain every nerve to exclude
from public Office the men who will
pass laws to prevent railroad dis
elimination, and the tax-dodgers
will clamOr against every man OF
capacity who insists that the prop
erty which now escapes shall be
taxed. Experience proves that
these powerful private interests,
which are so hostile to the welfare
of the masses, will intimidate our
office seeking politicians, and will
muzzle a large part of the press
But they cannot succeed, they can
not deceive voters, they cannot mis-
lead public opinion provided news
papers like the DEMOCRAT are widely
circulated. We appeal to those who
value the prosperity of our State to
aid in extending the circle OF our
readers. Give the DEMOCRAT 5000
subscribers, scattered over West Vir-
ginia, and the men now seheming to
plumber her will not dare prosecute
their plans. Give US double our
present circulation and the still
hunt policy will not be attempted.
OF course we do not expect any en-
Gouragemens from fools or knaves,
but we do expect the assistance of
every man who feels the Importance
of giving voters sufficient informa-
ton to enable them to cast an intel
ligent ballot.

We reprint onr editorial of March

QUEs.-What is the Blair bill.
ANs.-It is proposition that
Congress shall appropriate 70 mil
lion million dollars to be divided,
within the next eight years, between
the States and Territories to be ex-
pended in education.
Q.-Where will Congress get this
money?
A.-By taxing the people. The
L. :. tax-collector will take from
each person certain amount OF
money and put it into the Treasury
and then Congress will give part
of it back to the same people who
pay twill give it back in the way
of helping to educate their children.
Q.-Does a U. S. collector meas
ure each persons tax according to
his ability to spare part of his in
come? If A is worth 100000 and
B is worth only $1,000, does A pay
one hundred times more than B?
A.-No Speaking generality both
pay the same. For example, the
tariff-tax on sugar amounts to rs
cents year on every man, woman
and child ;-Yanderbilt and sew
ing-girl both consume the same
quantity of sugar and, as regards
the sugar tax, both pay the same
amount. This illustration holds
good as to every commodity of ''com-
mon living" which is protected by
the tariff.
OFF the sugar tax be rs cents
a head, then as regards this single
tax West Virginia pays into the Z.
S. Treasury $4,000 every year.
Our population is 100000 and 76
cents a head, makes $4,000.
Aust so. Summers pamphlet,
Protection and Revenue" (which
can be obtained by writing to the
DEMOCRACY gives the figures.
Q.-How much will West Virginia
receive under the Blair bill?
About $4,000 the first year.
Q.-Then Incorporation amounts
to simply this: We are to continue
a revenue system which makes sugar
cost West Virginians $4,000 more
than if the tariff tax was removed;
after this $4,000 is taken out of
our pockets and sent to Washington,
$4,000 will come back to help ed
ucate our children.
A.-Such is the case exactly, eX-
cept our illustration is confined to
the single matter of a sugar tax; if
we went through the whole list, we
would find that West Virginians
pay out largely over 500 for every
one dollar thev will never get back.
OIL am opposed to the Blair
bill. l want our Legislature to levy
its OWE school tax, so that every
dollar 1 pay will remain in this
State. l don't want this money sent
out of the State on an idea Il portion
of it will come back.
Avery man, who takes the
trouble to investigate this subject,
is of your opinion, unless his judg-
ment is warped by wrong inhu-
ence.
OWN the bill pass?
A.-.Yes; because the privileged
few, who alone profit by the ''protec-
tive tariff" have so saturated the
public mind with wrong ideas that
our politicians are afraid to antago-
nize the delusions which now pre-
vail. The Blair bill is merely a
shrewd and captivating scheme to
perpetuate the present tariff.
