THE DUTY OF THE YOUNG MEN. Senator Sherman's Political Advice to the Youthful Freemen.
 PROVIDENCE, Feb. 10.-The Young Mems Republican club and guests to the number of l five hundred were addressed at Infantry Hall this evening by Hon. John Sherman and Hon. 1 Charles H. Grosvenor, member of Congress l from Illinois, principally upon protection in general and the tariff upon wool and woolen goods in particular. MT. Sherman opened by referring to the suspicious opening Of the presidential campaign and the importance the young mems Republican clubs would exert upon the political movements of the day. He contrasted the principles of the Re- publican and Democratic parties from the | inception of the former, the Republican party having put liberal construction upon the constitution, while the Democratic party re- garded 1t as mere confederacy of hostile and warning States. Under the administra- tion of the Democracy there was no national circulating medium because they considered it against the constitution as in their ize it. During the war the Republi- can party gave to the country the greenbacks and established the system of the national banks, which is the best system ever devised by man, so much so that at this time
 the promise of the people of the United States to pay $1 900 is worth more than any
 bond of any country in the world. The Re- publican party did not believe that this coun- try was composed of discordant States, but firmly believed the country had a right to
 protect it's industries and that right reached
 to the very foundation of the government.
 The Democratic party did not believe
 that the Congress of the United States law foYo &n
 impose any duties, but if it was done
 it should be for revenue only and not to pro. tect or foster any home industry or for any beneficial results It had been universally
 held by the Republican party that Congress
 had that riS Int. After the war the reduction
 of internal taxes was begun by the Republi- can party until nothing was left except upon spirits, tobacco and beer, and all manufae- tured articles that could not be produced in
 this country were put upon the free list and
 later on tea and coffee were placed on the
 free list. So that practically now one-third
 of all the imported goods are free and the
 country has more enlarged free trade than ever existed in the world. He emphasized the point that the relations between employ CTS and employees should be harmonious and anything to disturb that unity of feeling the Republican party should oppose. In this connection he spoke in vigorous denunciation of the emigration into this country of communists, anarchists and socialists, who were not born in this country and who ought never to have been allowed to come. Touching upon the tariff upon wool and su- gar he said the Democratic party would. take the tariff off wool, but strenuously objected to a reduction of two cents on sugar for the
 reason that sugar was grown in the South. For his part he would take the tariff eff su- gar and give the grower bounty. He then entered upon an exhaustive analysis of an ar ticle appearing in Providence paper which Il, c on wool and vigorously debated the expedi- ency of such course by alludipg to it's prob able disastrous effects upon the western wool growers as contrasted with the benefits that might be derived by the eastern manufae- tnrer.
 His address was frequently interrupted by applause and he was presented at the close with @ handsome gold-headed cane by the club. He was followed by Hon. Charles H. Grosvenor, who spoke upon the wool ques- tion and the effect of the reduction upon the wool growers in his district in Ohio.
