HIGH TARIFF MEDIUMS EXPOSED.

HIGH TARIFF MEDIUMS EXPOSED,
Senator ZEB VANCE is writing a series
OF articles for the Baltimore SHR on The
Needs of the Nation. In his last article
which is very elaborate he deals with the
tariff question "a it relates to labor, show
ing the utter fallacy OF the claim that
high tariffs are chiefly beneficial to labor.
1t is the only prstsnse the "slave traders"
have left that can ne relied upon 10 catch
the votes Of the prejudiced aud unthink-
ing. The Senator's argument, in q nut
shell, is that "the only possible way by
which protection could increase wages, If
at all, is by raising or maintaining the
prices of manufactured articles. This last
it does artifcially, in defiance Of the law
of supply and demand. The law says that
the supply shall not be increased from
without unless by the payment of . heavy
tax, and that is protection to the products.
Common sense teaches that labor can only
be protected in the same way in providing
that the supply shall not be in
creased from without also" Any
child of ordinary intelligence can see that
this is incontrovertable and contains the
point of the whole question of the tariff IS
il relates TO wages, showing that the tariff
has really nothing TO do with wages.
The government, however, is supposed
10 give the manufacturer bounty on his
product on his promise to divide it with
his workmen. But does the protective
monopolist keep his implied promise? Ask,
for instance, CARNEGIE's thousands of
workmen, now striking against a reduction.
if he does and they will laugh in your face.
CARNEGIE gets q bounty Of $17 a ton
from the government; his labor costs him
from 81 to s. . ton, tie IOsgeSt MARKET price.
He has from SIC to $13 protection" left.
What he do with IL? Pockets il himself
Senator VANCE uses redHetio ad ab-
surdem style of argument for the phrase of
the question. with with quite IS much
reason, - he says, "we might as well inn
pose q heavy tax on every foreign labOrsr
who comes to our shores, in order to raise
wages in the home market, and tell the
with equal truth that it was
all for his benefit; that the labOrer would
be enabled ito pay him higher prices" for
his goods. In short, We eouid turn the
whole argument around and apply tall 10

Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD.
DUBLIN, December 28.-The Freeman's
Journal says the Times prolonged the
amount of evidence regarding tie out
RACES in the hope of securing testimony
to justify the statement made by Attor-
ney-General Webster in his opening ad-
dress. Feeling the ground slipping from
under its feet, it resolved upon desper-
ate game to retrieve its fortunes. With
this in view it dispatched an emissary
to America who discovered Sheridan at
Pueblo, Colo, and tried to induce him to
90 to London to testify before the Com
mission, promising him if his evidence
proved satisfactory he would be paid
Gl0 900 within an hour after the examin-
alton was concluded. Sheridan played
possum with the agent for time, who
finally offered s5, 900 down if he would
accompany the agent to England. Sheri-
dan positively declined to appear before
the Commission, and assured the agent
that he was in no wise desirous of shar-
ing the fate of James Carey.

The ups and downs of politics are we'll
illustrated in the career of Thomas G.
Platt, of New York. Those who pay
any attention to such matters remember
that Platt resigned his seat in the United
States Senate in 1881, when Roscoe
Conkling declined to serve longer in that
body on account of Garfield's treachery
to the Stalwarts. A universal howl of
derision went up in consequence, and
"Me Too, Tom Platt," became bye
word with the newspapers that after
wards fowered into the Mugwump vari-
ETY.. Platt braced himself, took all the
ridicule and for several years past he has
been the recognized Republican boss of
the Empire State, and he is now spoken
of as Harrison's Secretary of the Treas
ury. Recognizing the fact that Conk-
ling is dead, Platt has made his peace
with Blaine, and might be called COM
bination of the Stalwart and the Half
Breed. His success in asserting himself
politically shows that the man who takes
his rebuffs good-naturedly while sticking
to his party has many chances of resur-
rection in American politics. Seven
years ago any one who had predicted
that Platt would ever figure again promi.
nently in the Republican party of New
York would have been laughed at.

The work outlined for itself by the
Chamber Of Commerce is good one, and
that body ought to be enlarged and ener-
gized. 1t should have a membership of
at least one thousand, and in population
like that of Los Angeles there ought to
be no difficulty in securing that num-
Der. With an initiation fee placed at $40
and moderate monthly dues, the Cham
Der Of Commerce would then be in posi-
tion to contribute very materially to
advertising the attractions of this city.
The right way to secure such member
ship would be to appoint committee OF
leading citizens to make q house to
house canvass, and week ought to &C.
complish the thing. We are obliged to
confess that in matters of this kind, we
are away behind San Diego and other
places of less than fourth of our popula.
ton. In addition to scattering broad
cast the city dailies, and other
publications calculated to induce immi
grafton, some central station ought to
be established where an exhibit could
be made of our oranges, lemons, wines,
brandies and other products of the soil.
Many of the northern and central coun-
ties maintain special exhibits of their
Ispecialties in San Francisco, and we
ought at least do the same thing here.

THE real estate sales during the past
year foot up thus far the very respectable
figure of some $62, 900 10000. This is
quite creditable showing in view of the
alleged fact that the "boom" has been,
as asserted in the San Francisco and
Northern press, gathered as "an aims of
oblivion into the wallet of time" Last
year the Gales ran up to nearly one hun
dred millions, but that was the era oi
paper towns. There is no question that
large portion of the conveyances dur.
ing the current year represent the set.
Element of past transactions. But that
of itself is a very handsome indication.
The paper town proposition has disap.
peared and values are now on stable and
legitimate basis which favor the buyer, q
condition Of things which will result in

ing record in the city and county of Los
Angeles during the past year is un-
precedented in volume, and exceeds that
of the city and county of San Francisco

year which is drawing to close, like
the Bryson- -Bonebrake block, will COM
pare favorsbly with anything to be seen

HORTlCULTURE.
Northern Counties Discuss TIL,
DRAINAGE.

SAN FRANCISCO, December 28.-The
State Horticultural Society held its
monthly meeting this afternoon. The
discussion of the subject of sub-irrigation
was continued. Several persons were
proposed for membership, after which
the subject of dried fruits for the Paris
Exhibition was brought up and some
samples condemned.
Leonard Coates, of Napa, speaking on
tile drainage, com amended the plan OF
building pond on some property and
letting all the drains run into it, the
water escaping by evaporation.
Professor Hilgard said: In this State,
where there is light rainfall as COM
pared with parts of the East, where
m melted snow also adds to the soil moist
ure, there is also less need for a large
pipe. In his judgment. q three-inch
pipe is large enough for all general pur-
poses. Tile drainage will improve adobe
more than most soils. Residents
of Tulare and counties where there is
deep, light soil, say seepage from drain
ing or irrigating bitches to the injury OF
adjoining property was q matter that
would in time come up for consideration
in the Southern counties. Gilbert Tomp-
kins, of San Lorenzo, figured that land
can be drained here at cost Of $55 per
acre, using three-inch pipe.

ton and IL Cheered.

PARIS, December 28.-The Chamber of
Deputies to-day discussed the Senate
amendment 10 the budget. In the course
of the debate M. Bouvetier, Of the Right,
attacked the Government for going to
extremes in secularizing schools. Pre-
mier Floquet, in reply, expressed his
warmest approval of everything that had
been done to secularize schools. The Re-
public, he said, desired to free education
from all religious influence. Floquet's
speech was received with enthusiastic
applause. and motion to print and
placard it throughout France was car
ried by vote of 276 to 166.
In spite of the advice of the Budget
Committee, various credits, suppressed
by the Senate, we're reinstated, including
one Of 2 100000 francs for pensions. The
budget will therefore 60 back to the

at not being able to be present. and
added: Under the circumstances all /
can do is to send you the assurance of
my warmest sympathy with every effort
that may be made to advance the peo-
ple's cause in the struggle now going on
between the friends of industrial freedom
and the
BENRFICIARIEs OF INDUSTRIAL SLAVERY.
This struggle has just commenced in this
country, and those who delude them
selves with the hope that it will be aban-
doned before the triumph of right over
wrong are simply augmenting the weight
of the blow that will inevitably fall upon
them in the future. This is not threat,
but friendly warning. The history of
all movements for
NECESSARY SOCIAL OR POLITICAL RRFoRhs
Shows that they grow more radical by op.
position and delay, and it would be wise
and patriotic ON the part of our opponents
to recognize the inevitable and accede to
reasonable demands now, rather than be
forced to accept harder terms hereafter
SO far the sentiment is in favor of the
reduction of taxation, and if it does not
continue to be 80 the responsibility will
rest solely on those who unreasonably
oppose it. They alone can stop the agi.
tation or confne it within reasonable
bounds by proper concessions to the de.
mands of the people. The result of the
contest in which we are engaged is moi
in the least doubtful, and unless the evils
! of which we complain are removed
which is not at all probable,
THE AGITATION SHOULD GO RIGHT ON
With increased vigor and force until the
public judgment and conscience refuse tC
justify or condone them. Nothing has
yet occurred to weaken our faith in the
justice of our cause or to abate our con
fidence in its ultimate success. A single
defeat, even if it had been sustained or
the real merits OF the controversy, ought
not to discourage US. No just cause il
lost so long as it has single earnest ad
.ocate among the people. More thar
five and a-half millions of intelligent
patriotic Americans have attested theil
fidelity to the cause of revenue reform
under circumstances we'll calculated tt
test the sincerity of their opinions, ant
they will neither desert it's standard MOI
make peace with the enemy until sub
stantial justice is done.

The last number of Puck contains an
amusing cartoon, in which the friends of
the Plumed Knight are represented as
Blainiac White Caps. Whitelaw Reid is
imned as mailing an ultimatum, orna-
mented by the skull and cross-bones,
under Harrison's window, while the
placard reads: "We demand the first
place in your Cabinet for Blaine, or we
will smash your Administration. The
President-elect is pictured as surveying a
great mob of White Caps from partially
opened shutter. The threat is about the
long and the short of the political situa-
tion. There will be precious little left OF
the Harrison venture if James G. is
neglected. Not, at the least, to tender
him his choice of positions would be the
prize ingratitude Of the ages, and retri-
button would be sudden and sharp.

THE telegraph brings a rumor OF the
resignation of William B. Strong, Presi-
dent of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa
Fe Railroad Company. The report is
denied by the Secretary, but there seems
little doubt that very material changes
are ahead for that corporation. Its Pc
euniary complications, largely arising
from the building Of railways which were
greatly in advance of the development Of
the country, are undoubtedly grave.
The Santa Fe has been great pioneer OF
progress in the history of the West
and Southwest, and there would be gen.
eral regret at any serious reverse which
it may encounter. There is widely diff
fused opinion that Jay Gould will figure
in any reorganization of its management,
and that for some time past he has
marked it for his own.

The Italian Would Let Himself

French note is published denying the
story printed by the newspapers of Rome
to the effect that the Bey OF Tunis had
issued decree ordering all foreign en-
ployes of the Tunis Government to be-
come naturalized Frenchmen if they de-
sired to retain Office. The note declares
the story to be the invention of an
Italian recently dismissed from the SER

lectipg his duties. He would have re-
ceived the same treatment had he been
