Richmond dispatch. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1884-1903, 1888-10-05

One IL framed in the interest OF the whole
people the other IN the interest OF BOZ
manufacturers. One is designed to re-
duce both the Government revenue aud
taxation, taxation especially which bears
heaviest on the necessities OF life the
other is intended 90 raise public revenue
indeed, but 10 maintain private revenues
by imposing and retaining taxation on
an necessaries. The advocates Of the
substitute freely propose t0reduce the
duties or abolish them on things
which yield only Government revenue,
but refuse to reduce or abolish the du-
ties on those things which produce PR
yste revenue. This purpose IS ayOwed,
and is defended on the ground that It IS
all Tor labor. When it ia remembered
that the average tariff duty on all manu-
featured goods - 81 per cent and tine
average share Of labor therein is 81 per
cent. II will be seen that their love for
the workingman is based on the other
2G per cent. which they pocket Having
robbed him Of more tban hall ot the
bonus which The law gives the working
man they can well afford 20 love him,
and that love will continue undated
until he insists on having al the law
gives him.
But the minority says that the chief
taxation ~ provided by the substitute
ia confined 70 articles Of sugar and nee,
with lutte and lev other unmpOg.lnt
articles put upon the free list, while there
J, au increase o. the duties imposed upon
the muIhlom manufactures OF cotton,
wool. ZION, AMI stecl-art That The
whole people. and epecIaily the poor
and them0st needy classes, are compelled
10 use.
The substitute relieves the non neces-
aary tobacco oil IT'S forms, except cl-
CARS, cheroots, and cigarettes, from in
ternal taxation. and gives free alcohol to
arts. Taking the tax OF tobacco VIII re-
duco about 225, 00O. 001 AMI 1t is eetl-
mated that the tax taken from alcohol
