the immigration of this mason shows that
we have free trade in mechanics. The

We have published the resolu ton
adopted by the Maine Republican state
convention, June 10, 1882, declaring that
I'VE are unalterably opposed to the abo-
lition or reduction of the internal revenue
tax on liquors, and demand that all pos
sible reduction of taxation shall be made
on necessaries and not upon luxuries. ="
There was nothing exceptional in this at
titude of the Republicans in MI. Blaine's
state. The Republican Legislature elected
in Michigan the same year adopted re-
solution, which was presented in congress
Feb. /, 1878, that our senators and

to use their influence and vote against

Free Whisky and Oleomargarine.

The tariff plank of the Chicago plat
form says:
1--WE favor the entire repeal of internal
taxes rather than the surrender Of any
part of our protective system"
The tax upon oleomargarine Is Q very
prominent feature in our internal revenue
system. Tho enforcement of the law es-
tablishing that tax has resulted not only
In large revenue to the government. but
also in giving to American farmers true
protection for very important branch of
their great industry. The Republican
proposition involves O repeal of the oleo
margarine tax as well as all other Federal
internal taxes. The Republican party has
declared that this protective internal tax
must go before any monopoly tariff tax Is
touched. 1t has announced It's determi
nation to sacrifice the farming interests OF
the country to the demand Of . few manu-
already given. The Republicans would
lection which is earnestly demanded, be.
cause it was greatly needed. They want
no protection for the makers of dairy
products. They are willing to turn the
dairy farmers over defenseless to the
tender mercies Of q fraudulent compe-
tition, working through sophistication and
false brands and selling the yield of the
rendering vat under the name of dairy
butter. Let the farmers of the United
States look into this proposition OF the
Republican party that would permit, not
only free whisky, but free fraudulent but
ter, rather than abate one jot of the
bounty 1t gives to its pet monopolies.-

A Stunning Fact.

Not only American watches and sewing
machines, but American goods of all kinds
are sold cheaper in Europe than here.
One reason for the strong tariff reform
sentiment Of the Scandinavians who have
settled in the northwest is the feet that
they have to pay twice as much for
American agricultural implements in this
country as they had to pay for the same
Implements in Norway and Sweden. Mr..
Mccormick, the manufacturer Of reapers.
stated under oath that he sold his ma
chimes abroad for . fraction of their price
In this country. Many American firms
have two regular price lists, one for the
home market and the other for the export
trade. When they sell for export they
insist upon delivering the goods on board
American consumer viii not get the bene
fit Of the low prices.-San Francisco Ex-

A Poor Rule.

A dispatch from Pittsburg to The
Tribune announces that the Chester Roll.
ing Mill company has let the contract
for the erection OF . new Bcssemer steel
plant, which will cost several hundred
thousand dollars and give employment to
400 men, and that this was done "on tho
strength of Harrison being elected, the
firm being 'sanguine of Republican sue
cess"
In the same column another mill Is re-
ported as having shut down ION account
Of the Mills bill" This is in pursuance
OF the old Republican tactics Of claiming
everything good for their party and at.
tributing everything bad to the dreadful
Democrats.
1t is poor rule that won't work both
ways II the scattered failures and shut
downs are due to the Democratic policy,
the general prosperity of the country now
be credited to the same cause. The Re-
publican organ grinders cannot take all
the fat for their party and give to the
Democrats all the lean. That Is altogether
too brassy.
II a nation can be taxed into prosperity
the United States ought to have been q
shining example among nations during
the dozen years previous to 1884. But,
as a matter Of fact, there were more bank
ruptcies, more strikes and shut downs,
longer periods of business depression and
industrial stagnation and worse financial
panics during the last twelve years Of Re
publican rule, under the highest tariff in
the world, than were ever ever known In
this country before in the same length of
time. Workingmen have not forgotten
the period between 1873 and 1885. Neither
have business men.

TAX REFORM BENEFITS.
Conclusive Figrres BY an Experienced

Mr.. Frank r, Chambers, OF the firm OF
Rogers. Peet & Co., has contributed to Tho
Journal Of Commerce a most valuable de.
monstration Of the advantage the cloth
ing business Of this country would reap
from the passage Of the Mills bill.
Mr.. Chambers shows that it will DO
more advantageous to buy American made
goods under reform tariff than under the
present law, since clothing will be pro-
duced at an average of 10 per cent. less
cost, while the same rate Of wages will be
maintained the large reduction of cost
going to the consumer, and the benefit OF
the larger business and saving of interest
to the manufacturer and dealer. Mr..
Chambers arrives at his conclusions by the
following method of practical demonstra-
ton:
Selecting half a dozen lots of garments
made of foreign goods imported direct.
we first ascertained the actual net cost of
a single garment Of each lot as placed in
our stock, drawing off list of all the
items Of material and labor comprising its
cost Such items as trimmings, which
we buy here, were then submitted to an
importer, who affixed the price at which
he could buy the same quality abroad.
having the steriinS Priee VI the PieSo
goods we easily arrived at practically an
exact cost Of the same garment made
abroad fixing the items of labor at just
ne-half what we paid here Adding to
those figures the present duty on cloth
ing, calculated upon the actual weight of
the garments in our stock, we determined
what would be the relative cost of these
particular garments between what we
have actually expended here and what we
would have paid had all the work been
done abroad. With the above data the
calculation was repeated under tho pro-
posed Mills tariff rates, assuming that
our American labor cost would be identi-
cally what it now Is and the foreigners
Just one half as much"
The result is thus set forth in tabular
comparison:
Here is the exhibit; give one lot in
detail for example: Spring overcoat,

of English goods, 7s. Cd, or $l.63 per
