FREE RAW MATERIAL.
How They Cheaper Goods and In.
crease Labor.

We constantly receive letters from
workingmen asking us to pxplain this,
that or the other effect of tariff reduc-
ton.
Here is question which one of them
has asked:
Will the Herald tell me what will
be the result to men who work for a
living of putting certain raw mater
ials-wool, for instanee-on the free
list?
Well, first of all, the duty on raw
wool is tax which the man who uses
the finished product, the cloth, must
pay every time. The manufactures
doesn't bear the extra cost-why should
he? If he can buy his mixing wool at a
low figure he can afford to sell what
ever he makes at a correspondingly
small price. On the other hand. if his
raw material is dear that is your mis-
fortune, for he will have to charge you
more or he can't do business. The duty
or tax, 81 per cent. duty on woolens, is
paid by you whenever you buy the
manufacturers goods.
Again, if the cost of raw materials is
high the production from them is
ithiICNs AAhV 10 oSIiOuo. 1AeIo Is uU
sense, however, in producing a great
deal when only little can be
sold. A man would be an idiot to keep
his mandatory running night and day
when there is no demand for what he
is making. High prices mean a small
demand and smaller number of people
to buy. Poor folks would like to buy,
but they can't afford to. They get
along withoutwh they really need in
order to be really comfortable, because
their money must go for flour and pota-
toes.
Then, again, when manufacturer is
doing small business he wants only a
few workmen. The moment you limit
his market by increasing the cost of his
products you cut down his pay roll. On
the contrary, if he can get his raw ma
terials so cheaply that everybody can
afford to purchase his goods he wants
bigger buildings; there is work for car
penters and masons; he requires more
looms, there is work for machinists
and he wants more hands in his mills
every day in the year; then you have
good wages and steady work.
Prosperous times for lahoring men
depend on the popular demand for
what manufacturers turn into the
market. Choke off the production by
a tax on raw matetials andyou not only
lessen the number who have work, but
you increase the number who are seek
ing for it and can't find it.--New York
Herald.

From an "Open Letter." in the
Century for May, we quote as follows:
"Would it not be wiser for to induce
young girls in thousands of happy,
prosperous homes to make ample pro-
vision for any and all emergencies that
the future may have in store for them?
Could better use be found for some of
the years that intervene between the
time q girl leaves school and the time
she may reasonably hope to marry?
The field for woman's work has been
opened up of late years in so many
different directions that vocation can
easily be found. outside the profession
of teaching, that will be quite as con-
genial to refined tastes, and considera.
bly, more lucrative. Bookkeeping,
type writing, telegraphy, stenography,
engraving, dentistry, medicine, nurs-
ing, and q dozen other occupations
might be mentioned. Then, too, in
dustrial schools might be established,
where the daughters of wealthy parents
could be trained in the practical de-
tails of any particular industry for
which they display special aptitude.
If it is. not beneath the sons and
daughters of monarch to learn a
trade, 1t ought tnot to be beneath the
sons and daughters of republican
America toemulate their good example,
provided they possess the requisite
ability to do SO.
"Two years will suffice to make any
bright, quick girl conversant with all
the mysteries of the art of housekeep-
ing, especially ifshe be wise enough to
Democratic Northwest. [volume] (Napoleon, Ohio) 1869-1894, 1888-05-10

study the art practically as we'll as
theoretically. The management OF
servants and the care Of the sick and
children will be incidentally learned in
most homes, and can be supplemented
by more extended study Of physi-
OlOgy, hygiene, ETC., than was possible
at school. Sewing need not be ne
elected either, while leisure will readi-
ly be found for reading or any other
recreation that may suit individual
tastes. Another year. or longer, may
be added to the time devoted to these
pursuits. IL fdesired. But, above all, let
two or three years be cOnscientiOusly
set apart for the express purpose of ac-
quiring thorough experimental
knowledge of some art or vocation
which would render its possessor self
supporting and, consequently, inde-
pendent.
"If the tide of public opinion favor
ing such a course would but set in,
many q one would be spared untold
suffering and misery in after life. Let
the rich set the example in this matter.
They can afford to do whatever pleases
them, and, therefore, have it in their
power to mould public opinion. Be
not afraid, girls, that you will find your
self-im2osed task irksome. Remember
that occupation is necessary to happi-
ness, and that there is no reason why
you should not dream while you work.
1.-THE cry will be raised that there is
danger that such a plan as the one
advocated here will tend to give girls a
distaste for the quiet retirement OF
home but there is little cause for fear.
Not one girl in twenty will voluntarily
choose a business life in preference to
domestic happiness. Indeed, it is
absolutely certain that happy marriages
would be promoted by this very inde-
pendence among women. Not being
at leisure to nurse every passing fancy,
girls would elect to wait patiently until
the light of true love came into their
lives"

earth. Wages are higher In some Of
our States than In others because the
conditions are such rs to give greater
demand for in proportion to the supply
Of labor, though the tariff is the same
for the whole country. Wages are
higher in western than in eastern
cities, in large cities than in small ones
in the same vicinity, and In small cities
than in rural sections, chiefly because
the cost of living Is higher, though
other facts enter into the creation Of
these differences. There is no abstruse
theory or special pleading in all this
Here is simple collaboration of plain
facts, known to be facts by practically
everybody, and proving conclusively,
as think, that when the workingman
is searching for those schemes that are
best calculated to assure him the larg-
est possible return for his labor he must
look elsewhere than to high tariff.
Mr.. Marriott Brosius, whose pro-
nunciamento is the latest on the high
tariff side of pending controversy that
l have seen, is very eloquent gentle
man as eloquence goes nowadays. He
paints very glowing word pictures. He
multiplies adjectives with remarkable
skill. He tells the people of Pennsyl-
vania that
The prosperity Of American labor,
therefore, lies in protective tariff,
like faithful sentinel stands guard
over the forge, the factory and field,
and secures to the American working
man the enjoyment of his rightful
heritage. 1t helps him to home for
his family, respect for his wife, and
education for his children. It in
creases his intelligence, his indepen-
dence, his productive power, his self
respect. 1t gives him an incentive to
industry, q desire for improvement,
and makes him man instead of ma
chine.n
What wonderous folly! This protec-
tive tariff. so called, stands guard over
fOrges and factories, and so on, like the
tool of the monopolists that it is, to tax
the product with tyrant's greed, so
that the home consumers are merci-
lessly fieeced, and those in foreign
countries who would gladly be our Gus
toners are forced to buy exclusively of
our competitors. 1t does not secure to
us the home market, as alleged. That
is our, by reason of our natural re-
sources and skill. But it does rob US of
other markets which might otherwise
be had, and which would give us such
abundant and constant employment
for our labor that the regulation of the
rate of wages within reasonable limits
would be mainly in the hands of the
workingmen themselves instead of, as
now, in these pools and trusts and the
scores of other forms of monopoly by
which this country is to-day accursed.
