How the Tariff Works on the Man.

How the Tariff Works on the MAN.
The tariff causes the merchant 10 use AZ
per cent more capital In his business. IL
causes him to pay Al per cent more per
sonal tax. 1t causes him TO pay AZ per cent
more tax on his goods and buildings, II
causes him to pay AZ per cent more ex.
change to bankers and brokers. IL causes
him to pay AZ per cent more insurance on
goods and buildings. He pays more rent
by reason Of the Az per cent tariff II causes
all surplus that 10 created In the agricultural
districts to be shipped to the moneyed cen
tiers to pay the Al per cent high protective
tariff II creates fictitious value on every
thing we use without returning any value
whatever
After the high protective tariff leaves,
then the internal revenue and import taxes
take hold of him and put him through
long line Of taxes, and at the same time he
Is taxed to raise surplus for the United
States treasury. So that, to keep the tax
money In circulation and avoid a financial
disaster, the treasurer of the United States
must pay 30 per cent premium on a dollar
for U. &. bonds-or whatever per cent they
may reach in the market The man IL
taxed to raise a surplus of taxes for the
treasury, and then taxed 30 per cent TO get
the surplus taxes out Of the treasury
The general government has through
congress taxed and retaxed and compound
ed the taxes on this man, and now turns
him over to the State TO be finished by the
home government with a long line of State
institutions, states prisons, blind asylums,
feeble minded asylums, state university,
horticulture society, state fair, reform
schools. board of education, soldiers homes,
soldiers orphan home, normal schools, state
library. state militia, and dozen more
concerns. Every business above farming
and labor does business on a per cent,
while the farmer and labor must take what
is offered in the open market of the world
and must maintain all other markets at
home.

"THE newspaper entitled to the distinction of
having the largest daily circulation in America is
THE CHICAGO DAILY News. (Since this state
ment was made it is possible that the growth OF
the Ne7V York World entities it to first place.
The Graphic to-day devotes a page to sketches OF
scenes in and about its establishment. The his
tory of this paper is probably without parallel
in the annals of American journalism. 1t was
founded December Goth, 1875, and was the first
low-priced daily successfully established in the
West At the end of its first year it had achieved
a circulation of about 10000. From that time on
its growth has been remarkable. 1t now prints
seven editions daily, comprising both morning
and evening issues Its statement of circulation
for the year 1884 shows daily average of 1878
copies, unquestionaby the largest daily circulation
on the American continent. (The sworn state
ment for 1887 shows daily average Of I65,376)
"In politics The DAILY News is always indie
pendent, never neutral. While its editorial ex-
preston is sometimes vigorous to the degree Of
severity there is always in its utterances of opinion
so manifest purpose to be impartial and fair to
all opposing interests, that it rarely loses the
6dence of the reader, however much it may fail to
bring him to an acceptance OF its own view con-
corning the matter in hand
"As newspaper proper, The DAILY News
has earned a reputation for enterprising news
gathering second to none in the United States.
It is the only cheap paper in the West that is
member of the Associated Press. It gives its
readers all the news worth giving and gives it for
two cents. (Now it does it for one cent day.

lation to the persistent adherence on the part
of the other Chicago dailies to the blanket
sheet " style of journalism. Of all the people in
America the average Chicagoan is most in hurry
and least inclined to wade through columns OF
verbiage and stuff The DAILY NEWS is the only
Chicago daily that has the facilities for giving all
the news, and at the same time the good sense to
present it in concise form. The result OF such
condition of affairs is that The DAILY NEWS prints
more papers than all the other Chicago dailies
combined.
"In considering all the causes which have
entered into and produced so phenomenal jour-
nalistic growth the most important one unques-
tionaby has been the controlling conviction OF its
managers that the "cheap paper should be cheap
onlv in price that its news should be as fresh and
complete, its editorial discussion as able, and its
general tone and character as pure and heathful
as its best and highest priced contemporary. All
