HARRISON'S PROJECT.

Mr.. Harrison's theory must strike
the man who works for living,
and who owns no government
bonds, rs Offering Il very peculiar
sort of relief to the people. The liz
borer is to be taxed for more than
the government needs-taxed on
his clothes, his food, his fuel, his
tools and his house, and the excess
thus collected is to he paid to bond
holders to induce them to sell their
bonds. This is protecting" the
American laborer-paying the
bonlholder more than anybody i'm
the market would give him-;,nd
taxing the rest of the people to &C.
complish this feat. A long course
of this sort of protection would pro.
tect four tilths Of our citizens into
the poor house and make million.
aires of the other fifth.
The evils of eXtravagant and un
necessary taxation cannot he neu-
tralized by eXtravagant and unne
ceSsary government expenditures.
TO take unjust taxes from all the
people and then to pay them back
to Il favored few is so mad IL projcct
that we cannot conceive Of it's ac-
ceptancc by any rational mind.
And yet this is the project which
MIR. Harrison proposes. And this
is all he has to say for himself

WAGES.

The Republican argans are con.
tinually contrasting the wages paid
i'll this country, which has IA high
protective tariff, with the wages
paid in England. which has Il reve-
hue tariff, or, as Republicans call it.,
free trade, as conclusive evidence
that protection enhances the re.
ward of the laborer That such IA
deduction from the difference in
wages is wholly unwalrantcd and
nothing but shallow assumption, is
proven by this comparison between
wages i'll England and wages in
Germany, which latter has high
protective tariff.
