TARIFF AND WAGES.

What has the tariff to do with
wages ? Because a man is forced to
pay a tax on everything he uses, is
this the reason wages are high or
low? Can it be possible that work
ingmen believe protection protects
them? In what way? In keeping
out the goods manufactured by pau
per labor, the protectionists declares,
while when cheap labor hocks to
this country by the thousands every
year. At every American work
mans elbow stands an Italian or
Chinese willing to work for cheaper
wages. This looks very much like
that American labor was protected.
To show that wages and the tariff
have nothing in the other, we will
quote from undeniable authority on
the question. The chief argument
against a reduction of the "rate of
duties from AZ to 40 or AZ per cent,
which is the practical proposition
now pending, is to bring American
laborer to the level of the pauper or
poorly paid laborer of Europe. That
is to say, a tariff tax increases the
rate of wages. Is this true2 Ac-
cording to the census of 1880 the
number of persons who are engaged
in gainful occupations was 1892
099. Of this number the farmers
are about 40 per cent, and those
engaged in professions, in trade, and
in transportation are about 80 per
cent. Here are rs per cent. of the
laboring people, who, from the ma
ture of their occupations, cannot be
protected by a tariff tax. Protection
certainly does not raise wages. On
the contrary, by raising the price of
every necessary of life which is i'm
ported, and which we do not pro-
duce, the purchasing power of their
wages is diminished, and thus pro-
lection reduces their wages by Just
so much as the tariff increases the
prices of the articles they buy"
This much shows that tariff does
not regulate wages. In England,
which is called a free-trade country,
the "rate of wages have increased
from 20 to $50 per cent, while the
hours of labor have been reduced 20
per cent, and what the laborer con-
sumes has been diminished in price.
To-day the rate Of wages in England
are AZ per cent. higher than in pro-
tected Germany, and IS per cent.
higher than in protected France"
So this talk about reducing the
tariff will lower wages is all poppy
cock. Every workingman ought to
know this.
