HoUsE-The house this morning at II. 45
o'clock entered upon the fourth day of its
contest over the direct tax bill, the legisla-
tive day of Wednesday still cont tinuing. Mr..
Reed of Maine Immediately demanded the
regular order, which the speaker stated to
be the vote on the motion that when the
house adjourn today it be to meet on Satur
day next. The effort at a compromise hav
ing failed the usual filibustering motions
were again submitted and the round of roll
calls began. At 245 p. m. the situation in
the house remains unchanged, and there are
no present prospects of the breaking of the
deadlock. Both sides are doggedly deter
mined to keep up the fight and it is
threatened that the house will be kept in
continuous session without any recess being
taken until the question is settled, either by
a compromise or by one party uncondition-
ally surrendering its position. There is
some discus ion as to what effect the present
action of the house in consuming the time
in repeated roll calls will have upon the
consideration of the tariff bill, and there is
an apprehension felt by some gentlemen
that, if dilatory tactics are continued for
few days longer, the necessary consideration
of the appropriation bills will delay until
later day than that now fixed the discussion

ton, the Chicago Tribune, the leading Re-

lowing sledge-hammer reply:
The States have now the power to tax the
liquor traffic to any extent they see fit and moth
ing that Congress can do in repeating the inter
nal revenue tax on whisky will add TO or
strengthen that power particle. In many oil
the States, however, prohibitory lsvs-local OPP
ton as in Illinois and general as in Iows-have
been established, and, while the sale and con
sumption Of liquor are not stopped, yet the pow
or of State taxation Is suspended and the local
authorities are forbidden to impose any tax on
the sale ofintoxicating drink. Ohio has one Of
these laws Ifthen, whisky is not taxed by the
federal government, il will be entirely free from
taxation in all States like Maine, Iowa and Kan
sas, and all local option States, Of which there
arc a dozen or more. Gresuenor Is simply ddro

Facts for Labor.
Roysds CHI Times.

A few COMBINATIONS of facts for work
ingmep will be useful to Democrats who
are met daily with the pauper labor asser-
tions of believers in Blaine. Moderate
protection is enough for any country, when
it is not only better for the farmer but for
laborers and manufacturers. The laborers
in protected industries are but small
fraction of the total labor in the country
and cannot level mp wages The average
of wages is determined by the unprotected,
who are burdened with the tax on COD
sumption. The American laborer does
more work for q dollar than any other
laborer, and, therefore, no tariff can help
him. In the cotton industry, for instance,
the American weaver attends six and
eight looms, while the Euglish weaver at
tends but three and four, the Swiss two
and three and the French and German two
and three. In Massachusetts, one man
turns ont 1900 yards, in England one
turns out 100 yards and in Switzerland one
turns out 466 yards 1t is the cheaper
American laborer who pays, by biz
more efficient and harder work,
for the high cost Of iron
and steel machinery, coal and raw
material. Therefore the lsborer loses by
the present tariff in selling his labor as
we'll ss in buying his goods. Manufac-
turers could afford to pay him more (per-
baps they would not do 1t, but they COULD
if their other expenses were not so largely
increased by the tariff. In America labor
ers in unprotected industries are
more highly paid than those in protected
industries. Carpenters, bricklayers, black.
smiths, painters, GLACIERS, car drivers, and
all who work in similar departments Of
skilled industry make from $3.50 to $3.50 a
year. Operatives in wooden mills make
$196 to 1925 year. In cotton mills they
make from $135 to 1925 year. In EGG
land wages under reduced tariff charges
have increased so per cent. and in some IN
dustries 100 per cent. The number of de-
positors in savings banks has increased
from 430, 900 to 5, 200. 900.

The Intelligeaeer, whose digestion seems
to be troubling it these days, is fighting
mad because the REGISTER took scrap
from Mr.. MCKINLEY's Atlanta speech
without taking all that the esteemed Major
said on the subject. The following is the
scrap:
1--WE have an example of free raw material In a
certain line of manufacture that OF leather fol-
boots. shoes, etc. In 1872 hides and skins were
made free 80 that our manufacturers could i'm
port them without custom house burdens. They
have had free trade" in their raw material now
for sixteen years. This industry has been an ex
ceptionally successful one"
The Intelligeneer doesn't deny that these
were the very words Major MCKINLEY
used. Of course MCKINLEY was making
a high tariff speech and he never intended
to make the point that his words above
make. There is no 'garbling" here.
The above is a complete statement taken
from the body of Major MCKINLEY's
speech and we protest that it knocks the
props from under the whole war-tax
fabric.
