What do these figures mean? Under q
moderate tariff the number OF men m
ployed in manufactures was increasing at
the rate Of over forty per cent. III ten
wears, while the number OF women In
creased only twelve per cent. Thus for
every 100 men and 100 women employed
in manufacturing in 1850, in 1860 there
were 141 men and 112 women employed.
What was the state OF affairs from 1871
to 1880 under a system OF war taxes
which. we are t I'D, protects" labor? Ths
increase in the number OF men employed
fell of to only twenty-five per cent
while the increase in the number Of women
employed Jumped up to sixty-four Psr
cent, and Of girls under fifteen and boys
under sixteen the increase amounted to
6fty-eight par cent. Where, IN 1870
there were employed, say 100 men, 100
women and one buudred children, in 1880
there were employed 125 men, 164 women
and 15S children. Ten years Of fair tarlfl
taxes gave employment to al men, aud
required 112 women to work IN factories,
shops, etc. Ten years of war taxes gave
employment TO 125 men, and forced lo4
women ana 15S children to work where
100 each, for example, worked at the be-
2inriog Of each ten years.
Is it that var taxes protects labor
and RAISES wages by driving womsn and
children into workshops? Maybe it If,
but we don't believe it, and do not think
any sensible MAJ can believe it. Women
aud children are employed in mauufsotar-
ing because they work cheaper. They are
paid much lower wages. They are forced
to 20 there to work because 1t costs 90
much to live with everything taxed which
the family uses, that they must help out
the earnings of father or husband to meet
War taxes are a two edged
sword against them, driving them to labor
by increasing family expenses, and then
putting their cheaper labor into competi-
ton with that Of the men who try to sup
port them. Such is the hind OF 'protec-
ton wal taxes give us.
Those taxes were first imposed to meet
the expenses of a war that ended IN tine
freeing of the colored race in this country.
Are they to be maintained to shelter a
worse slavery, TO drive yearly a larger and
larger proportion of women and childrsn
toto the shops and factories?

1t is laughable what charges the Re-
publicsns do make. The Hons. q. W.
Atkinson and A. w. Campbell spoke to q
good sized audience here last night. MIR.
Atkinson wanted to know whether the
American idea, or whether the English
idea OF protection shall prevail; and it was
protectective (tariff) that projected the
country 10 the dark days. The first OBJ
iect OF this tariffs 10 raise money to run
the Government, and the foreigner should
nav this tariff; that is the first OBJ
iect, the second object was to protect
our industries. He says: Il am in favor
of a system Of protection so high that We
can sell our articles az the same price AZ
England.
AN OLD LIE REPEATED.

trade bill. He said he had quotations
from thirty-three Euglish newspapers
that the Mills titl was a free trade
bill; it is practically n free trade
bill. The Democratic party is a free
trade party or it is nothing. The Mills
bill should not pass, because it is unfair
it discriminates against one section and in
favor OF another. Why does it place sugar

Iris charged that Gen. Hughes, through
his influence with the Northern Pacific
Railroad management, procured the dis
charge of an efficient employe of that cor
poration because he opposed Mr.. Hughes
IN the Burleigh County primaries. A
dodger bearing on the subject was circu
lated at some of the polling-places in this
county on election day. and the little
harm it did to the council candidate was
owing to the lateness of its appearance,
and to the belief that it was political
canard. We have not read the circular
but we understand that such charge IS
made. If it is untrue, it should be pub
licly denied; if 1t Is true. 1t was a shame
full act and one that should drive the man
committing it entirely out of politics.
But we cannot believe that Gen. Hughes
who during the war was more than once
severely wounded while lighting for prin-
ciple, would stoop TO such thing. lie
certainly can, and undoubtedly will. refuts
it and show clearly to his constituents
that there is no ground for the accusation

HALLELUlAH!

In no section OF the United States Has
the fact Of Gen. Harrison's election,
supplemented by the news that the Re.
publicans will control both houses of
Congress, been hailed with greater d.
light than in the northwestern territories.
This IS especially true of Dakota. On
account of Its habit of giving immens
Republican majoritles. this territory has
been the chief target for the sings aud
sneers Of Democratic leaders and news
papers in the East. Year after year Da-
kota has petitiened for admission, only
to be treated with contempt by the Bour
bon majority IN Congress. Had that ma.
jority and President Cleveland been deal
ing with an uncvillzed horde on some
far-away cannibal island they could have
paid but little less attention to their
wishes than they have to the wishes of
tbs people of Daketa. For years after
we had become, by vii precedents, enti-
tied to self overnment. we have been
ruled by men Of different political faith
IN the selection of whom we have had no
voice. As a matter Of fact we have had
less power and influence IN the making of
laws in which we are interested than have
the people of Ireland in the British par
lament, for their representatives may
vote on all questions. while our single
delegate, or agent. is not entitled to that
privilege.
There are many IN Dakota--and the
writer among thcm--who would be glad
to see our grand territory come in as one
great state, believing that our influence
on national affairs would be greater thus
than as two lesser commonwealth. But
it seems settled that political expedlency
demands that there be North and a
South Dakota. The Democratic party is
alone responsible for this condition of
