The Republican says: "The object of a
protective tariff is protection against for
etgn tabor, be it the labor of free trade
England or protection Germany" This
matter of projections protecting labor is
quite we'll stated by Peoria paper dealer
in this way
Does protection protect labary Is it
labor, or the product of labor? 1t cannot
be labor. for there is no hinderance to the
importation of foreign labor. ltmay come
10, as it has come in, like flood. Then,
II not labor. what? The product of labor !?
But the product of labor is not owned by
the labor that produces it. In that case III
must be the property of the capitalist. Thus
il is not labor that is protected, but the
product of labor, which belongs to men OF
means and not to labor. To the importa-
ton of like property every obstruction is
placed If the product of foreign labor is
shut out, as an equivalent foreign labor
should be also,

TARIFF PROTECTION AND LABOR.

OF all the questions of public policy or
political economy that have arisen to agi-
tate the public sentiment of commerce,
there can be none of greater interest and
moment to the people of this country than
that of tariff taxation, in conjunction with
the theories of protection to American in
dustries; and, think, also, that President
Cleveland is not alone In his misgivings
and alarms for the future of his country If
the present tariff policy is adhered to for
any extended time. Were 1t not for the
forebodings of coming evils from per-
sistance in our reckless financial affairs,
could not resist feeling of amusement at
the very grotesqueness of some of the ar
guments offered In support of the theories
of a protective tariff, but in single COM
munication on the subject l shall confine
nv remarks to but one of the many phases
which the tariff question assumes, and that
is the relation that protective tariff, under
our present laws, bears TO american LABOR.
And l wish to be understood, when l
speak of American labor, 20 mean the
labor of Americans, native born, and those
who become Americans by full and COM
plete compliance with the American laws
of naturalization for when any other class
of people enter the field of labor in the
United States, il is foreign labor, and has
entered into competition Ioib and sup
planted american labor.
presume all the.readers of the FREE
TRADER who have perused to any extent
the theories In support of protective
tariff, must have seen that the don inant
sentiment pervading their essays is a seem

There Is conundrum in connection

ouent illusions to il, but as yet have seen
no solution, 1t was very confidently stated
by Senator Cullom, during his incum bency
as governor, that the revenue from the Hi
nois Central railroad would be ample to
meet all expenses of the state government
after the debt was paid, Well, the debt
has been paid and yet the rate per cent of
state taxes is larger now, when the state is
out of debt, than ii was in 1872, when
there was debt of over $2,00O,OOO. In
other words, we are compelled to now pay
fifty. three cents state tax on 500, while in
1872 we only paid twenty-nine cents. Para
doxical as it may seem, the taxpayers had
a less tax burden in 1872, when the state
owed 100000, than they have now, when
the state does mt owe cent.

A SURE THING.
The I. v. & ". Road Will come here when
the Flowers Bloom In the Spring.

There is no longer any doubt in the
minds of those who have made 1t their
business to keep posted, that the |. V. an.
road will be built from La Sale TO this
city, as soon as the line Is finished TO
Streator.
While the road desires to conceal Its
real intentions, II has gone too far In the
matter to make concealmenr a further
possibility, and the good news will thus
be the starter of our spring boom. Blee,
the right Of way man, has been work.
Ing In the vicinity of Utica for month or
more, and from the most reliable sources
comes the intelligence that he has sue
ceeded In securing the right of way TO and
through Utica, except through the land of
Scotchman a couple of hundred rods
east of the village, and the only reason
consent has not been obtained In this case
Is because he lives In Scotland, and has an
elevated idea of the value of La Sale Co.
farming land. The road will be built on
the south side of the Illinois and Michigan
canal, and about forty rods from Its banks,
excepting where II Is forced to &C nearer
at Buffalo Rock. 1t will be ballasted with
limestone and gravel, and be single track
affair, with a good assortment of side
tracks at Utica.
Upon reaching this city, it will come up
Washington street, turn the corner via the
lot recently purchased ty the e., on the
southwest corner of Washington and Wal
nut, and join what is now the main track
few dozen rods south. The new sidetrack,
which runs along the western side of the
newly acquired territory, recently owned
by Schaefer, Mccartney, ct al, will soon be
re-ballasted and made the main track,
which will give the trains a greater head
way for the south side hill.
The exact location of the new depot has
not yet been definitely established, but is
sure to be on Jackson street, or on the
block between Jefferson and Jackson. 1t
will be of brick and tile, and occupy a
floor space four or five times the size of
the present structure.

John jarrett ought 10 be good authority
on the subject Of labor. He Is republi'
can and protectlonist In the best of

ject is certainly not the result Of any demo
cratic tendencies on his part, though in
this particular case very unrepublican, as
appears from his statement that his expe.
rience among the coal miners in England
induces him to say that they are really
better cared for than are the coal miners In

So far as we know, our neighbor is the
only paper in the country which has pre-
tended that protection affects the wages OF
one section of the country as against an
other or overrides the law governing sup.
ply and demand.-Repubiican.
Never said so; never intimated it. We
simply said the fact that while a certain
kind of labor is paid high wage in one
state and low wage in another, shows that
the tariff per Sc has nothing to do with
either case. If it did have any effect, the
price for the same protected" labor ought
TO be the same in both cases.
