John Jarretts Evidence.

Mr.. John Jarrett is strong champ
ion of prohibitory tariff. At the same
time he has the reputation of one who
regards his oath as witness. Re-
specting tin plates, he is on record as
swearing that none has been produced
in this country, and that duty of at
least 40 per cent.-high enough to
stop manufacturers absolutely nec-
essary to the establishment of trans
planted and artifcially nurtured tin
plate industry.
With respect to the effect of tariff
upon wages he has given equally i'm
portant testimony before the Senate
committee OH the relations of labor to
capital. In answer to questions by
members of that committee he said

nected with our organization are, on

- As rule, in such mills as are
not controlled by our organization
lower wages are paid. Of course there
are all sorts of arguments used by the
owners of these mills. They claim
that the controlling influence where
by wages are governed in this country
is the tariff. and they say they pay all
the tariff guarantees them.
Mr.. Jarrett was then asked if there
was any foundation for such claim
and he replied mo, there is not

Remarks of Leading Republicans on
the Tariff.


Senator Sherman, of Ohio. 1867 /:
an considering SO complicated sub
ject as a tariff, nothing can be more
deceptive than the application of such
a general phrases as "a protective tar
it, a revenue tariff "a free trade tar
iH.' Every law imposing duty on
imported goods is necessarily a re-
straint on trade. II imposes burden
upon the purchase and sale of import.
ed goods and tends to prevent import
alton. The expression "a free trade
tariff involves an absurdity. If you
converse with intelligent men engaged
in the business of manufacturing they
will tell you that they are willing to
compete with England. France, Ger
many, and all the countries of Europe
at the old rates of duty. If you re-
duce their products to a specie basis,
and put them on the same footing
they we're before the war, the present
rates Of duty would be too high. 1t
would not be necessary for scarce any
branch of industry to be protected to
the extent of your present tariff law.
They do not ask protection against
the pauper labor of Europe, but ask
protection against the creation of your
own laws"

previous the weather had been disagreeably

anticipations in regard TO the fair were not

General John A. Logan. April IS

General John A. Logan, April Is,
1870: "Now when the gentleman,
who seems to be the protector in an
especial manner of the great labor in
terests of this country, speaks of this
protection being the protection of the
labor of this country, l ask him :
Does not every farmer and mechanic
in this broad land make use of iron
in all kinds OF labor? The 100000
men that have been freed recently are
laborers, are producers not manufact-
urers. They are not men of skilled
labor; they evidently are men who
are not protected. And then there
are the men in the Northwest who
produce wheat, corn, oats, pork and
beans, ETC., they are producers not
consumers, and they are not protected;
and they pay this large amount of
money into the pockets of the manu-
facturers Of this article. And when
a gentleman stands upon this floor
and tells me that this high, this ex-
traordinary high tariff is for the pro-
lection of the laboring men, l tell him
that do not understand how he can
possibly substantiate such theory"

surprise, very much exceeding the anticipa-
tons formed.
AT one side Of the entrance TO the hall
were four wagon loads of fine potatoes. On
the other side was wagon load Of cabbage
the first load ever exhibited there, and
they were from the garden of JOS Reinke,
of this city.
The vegetable exhibit as usual, was a
first class one, and showed what the fruitful
soil Of this county can do in raising NAM
moth beets carrots, onions, pumpkins, po-
tatoes, radish, cauliAower, ruta bagas, rad
ish, celery, citrons, squash, mangle wurtzel,
melons, parsnips, tomatoes, and other vege-
tables. A finer exhibit can not, webelieve,
be produced from any county in the State.
1t was little larger than last year, as re-
CARDS the amount of vegetables exhibited
The fruit display was extraordinary, and
shows that there is no longer any expert
ment in growing apples, plums, pears, crab
apples and other fruits here. In fact the
apple and plum crop has become an
important one, and every year, the
young orchards give more abundant yields
In few years the apple crop Of Alpena
will be large enough to supply the home con-
sumption, and the import of apples will
largely decrease.
Among the exhibitors OF fruit were Jos
Bryan, who had "a varieties of apples, ex-
hibited on rs plates, also 10 plates of pluins
12 of grape, and of crab apples. The 9TH
er fruit exhibitors we're: N. M. Brackin-
reed ii. King, John Atkinson. s. e. Leroy,
L. S. Hammond, p. Buel, II. Hodgins, r.
Naylor Mrs. M. Brown, j. L. Sanborn.
The fruit and vegetable exhibits ELECTED
much praise from strangers, who got very
favorable impression Of the agricultural in
tersts of the county from what they saw. 1t
was surprise to them, and the farmers de-
serve much credit for their enterprise in
bringing out so fine display, and especial
ly when considering the disagreeablc wealth
er preceding the fair.
The dairy exhibit, while not large, was
first class as regards quality, and the same
may be said of the grain. OF the latter
there were 10 exhibits Of wheat, of peas,
A Of oats, 6 of corn, of beans, one of timo-
thy seed and 4 of buckwheat.
McCauley & Denton and G. A. Shannon
had elegant exhibits of furniture; Walter
Gavigan exhibited fine creamery, j. NJ.
Dafoe displayed a selection of photographs,
Beach & Alger had several fine stoves on
view, and G. II. Reynolds an assortment of
jewelry, etc.
In the art loan were many exhibits of
needle work, paintings, embroidery, ETC.,
and Mrs. Ansel had on display selection
of curiosities from Gautamala. A picture
frame Whitfield by j. M. Macarthur, attract
ed much attention.
The exhibits of cattle comprised Hol-
stems, Jerseys and Durhams. The cattle
exhibits comprised 40 head of sheep, pigs,
and SO cows. bulls and calves. Some fine
pure blooded stock was on exhibition.
During the afternoon of the second day
