hope of a better future. Whatever ills

hope of better future. Whatever ills
the American workman has to contend
with, his rate of wages is twice or
three times as high as that of his En-
glish brother. The distribution of the
products Of labor are faulty in that
the producer does not get his proper
share, but the road to a better distri-
button does not lie in reducing the
share he now gets. The only possible
way that good wages for American
wOrkmen can be maintained is the ex-
clusiOn, to a greater or less extent, of
foreign, cheap labor from our shores.
and the protection of home industries
by a tax upon competing products of
the labor of women at 800 per year, and
of men at perhaps not over double that
sum. Last year, in spite of our present
tariff, 500, 100000 worth of foreign
pauper labor manufactured goods were
brought into this country and in direct
competition with our mechanics. arti-
sans and labOrers. With that $780,
600. 900 worth of foreign goods kept
out, that sum would have been paid
out in America for good American la
Dor and material. The great fact re-
mains that the nations of the world are
our competitors and we must adopt
their scale of prices. or go out of bust
ness in our own country, if we per-
NIT their wares to come free among
us. They may claim we are exclusive
in this, but philanthropy begins at
home. America is large enough for
us and We are legislating for America
and Americans and not for Europe and
Europeans.
Mr.. Allis then takes up the claim
made that more money is paid into
the National Treasury than the coun-
try needs. and that we have more Of
an income than we can profitably use.
He brings the matter right home to
the wOrkmen by an apt illustration.
(Which of you," he asks. ''having
debt of $1,000 on your home. and a
saving of 800 over and above your
living expenses. would consider that
amount laid away to pay on that debt
bad condition of things? And yet
this is precisely parallel case. Our
Government has debt of thousand
millions. drawing interest and secured
by mortgage on the homes and prop
erty of us all, andihas an accumulation
of an hundred million dollars towards
paying it, which has been given the
alarming title of a dangerous surplus
To the people at large the surplus
and the means of continuing it is
blessing unparalleled. But, in fact,
while we have a dollar of unpaid debt
no such thing as surplus is pos
sible."
Mr.. Allis closes this convincing let
ter by saying: ''When we have sue
ceeeded in rendering permanent our
present position of vantage. then we
can look forward and strive for other
benefits and advantages. but if we lose
what we now have, our condition will
be helpless indeed. "-StoUes and Hard

" Nasal Voices, Cafarrh and False
Teeth"

A prominent English woman says tbs
American women all have high, shrill. nasal
voices and false teeth.
Americans don't like the constant twit-
ting they get about this nassl twang, and
yet it isa fact caused by our dry stimula-
ting atmosphere, and the universal pres
ence Of catarrhal difficulties
But why should 30 many OF our women
have false teeths
That is more Of aposer to the English. It
u quite impossible to account TOR IL except
on the theory Of deranged stomach action
caused by imprudence in eating and by
want Of regular exercise.
Both conditions are unnatural.
Catarrhal troubles everywhere prevail
and end in cough and consumption, which
are promoted by malnutritioB induced by
deranged stomach action. The condition
Is modern one, one unknowh to our an
cest0rs who prevented the datarrh, cold,
cough and consumption by abundant and
regular use Of what is now known a.
Warmers Log Cabin cough and consump-
ton remedy and Log Cabin sarsaparilla,
two Old-fashi0ned standard remedies
handed down from our ancestors, and now
exclusively put forth under the strongest
guarantees Of purity and efficacy by the
world famed makers of Warmers safe
cure. These two remedies plentifully used
as the fall and winter seasons advance, to-
gether with an occasional use Of W arners
Log Cabin rose cream, to strengthen and
protect the nasal membranes, give posi-
tive assurance Of freedom, both from ca
tarrh and those dreadful and If neglected,
inevitable consequences, pneumonia, lung
troubles and consumption, which so gener-
ally and fatally prevail among our people.
C0mrade Eli Fisher, of Salem, Henry Co.,
Iowa, served four years in the late war and
contracted disease called consumption by
the doctors. He had frequent hemorrhages.
After using Warmers Log Cabin cough and
consumption remedy, he says, under date Of
Jan. 10Th, 1888: 81 do not bleed at the
lungs any more, my cough does not bother
me, and do not have any more smOthering
spells" Warmers Log Cabin rose cream
cured his wife of catarrh and she is "sound
and well.'
OF course we do not like to have our
women called nose takers and false teeth
owners, but these conditions can be readily
overcome in the manner indicated.

The DoIIar.a-Day Lie.

The editor of the Mauch Chunk
Pa) Gazette wrote to General Harri-
son asking whether he ever used any
language that conveyed the idea that he
believed "a dollar day is enough for
any wOrking-man." The General re-
piled as follows:
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Sept Sly Dear Sir:
I can not bu; express surprise that you should
ask me such o question as that contained in
your letter of September &, namely, whether !
have ever said in effect that one dollar day
was enough wages for working-man. There
may be campaign lies so plausible as to require
a denial but this is certainly not Of that sort

WANT GOOD WAGES.
Eight Hundred Wisconsin WOrkIng-NI
Issue q Protection Circular.

Eight Hundred Wisconsin Working Men
Issue q Protection Circular.
Eight hundred working-men en-
ployed in the great mills at MAYHEM,
near Milwaukee, Wis, have issued an
address to their fellOw-laborers, which
is worth general reading. 1t is as fol-
lows:
To THE WORKING-MEN OF THE STATE OF
WISCONSIN: I'VE, the undersigned working
men OF the Seventeenth ward of the city OF
Milwaukee tBayview). feeling that our interests
as wage-earners are assailed and endangered
by the powerful efforts made by the enemies
of protection to American industries and labor
to tear down our system Of protective tariff
and give us instead lower duties and lesser pro-
lection than we now enjoy. As workng-men
we regard 1t as an essential thing in limiting
competition between US and the working men
OF foreign countries Free foreign trade is
another name for free foreign competition
Free competition will simply bring labor to a
common level; hence free competition be-
tween US and foreigners can only result in
bringing us down to level of foreign working
men
THE wages paid in this country are from
two to three times as much as the wages paid
in Europe. Free competition was never
known to be the means of increasing wages
essary to organize, regulate and control COM
petition among ourselves SO is a protective
tariff necessary to restrict competition between
US and foreign working-men.
THE undersigned are mostly employed IN
the manufacture Of iron and steel. In the ad-
justment of wages between US and our en-
ployers We have always used the tariff as a
factor that should insure to US better wages
than are paid abroad. Any reduction of the
tariff can only result in quickening competition
between US and foreign labor, or in other
words, reduction in our wages The same re-
suit will follow in all other branches Of labor.
THE Mills bill is a measure in the direction
of free trade. or freer competition between the
labor OF this country and the labor of foreign
countries. 1t provides for free WOOL free lum-
Der. free salt, free cotton ties and several
other important articles that represent very
large industries in this country. 1t provides
also for a reduced duty on steel rails, bar iron,
old iron rails and wrought scraps and manu-
featured goods in wood. glass. wooden and other
materials that enter into competition with
home production. Every one of these reduc-
tons would entail a reduction of wages and in
some cases a stoppage of production altogether
IN this country, thus sacrificing employment
to home labor and furnishing employ i.ient to
foreign labor and capital.

Maine for Protection.


The shades of night were falling fast
When from the Pine Tree State there passed
The news that Maine had gone all right,
And rallied round that word OF light
Protection.
On Democratic ears II fell
With mournful cadence, like knell
Ofhopes that soon should blasted be
When ballot-boxes would decree
Protection.
The Free-Trade heart was filed with GREET
The patriot soul felt great relief:
For Maine had marked the high food tide,
Rebound ng from Vermont's green side
OF Protection.
From every county rings the cry
or the Free Traders on the fly,
And Kennebec calls to Berwick:
"We'il make these Cievelanders feel sick
With Protection.
"when in November, cold and drear,
The Free-Trade cohorts disappear,
Well greeting send to ali mankind
That Maine Is never left behind
In Protection"
