the cost OF living In this country is not
increased by the duty on imported articles.
In the first place, III w~orkingmen are not
consumers of many imported articles, and
in the second place the cost of a domestic
product is not increased by the amount
of duty collected on the imported article.
Let us take a piece of cotton cloth, for
example. Suppose the duty on the for
eign cloth is 40 per cent. and that the
price is twelve cents per yard. With
the duty added, the price in New York
of the imported cloth would be about
seventeen or eighteen cents. If there was
not one cotton mill in the country the do
nestle cloth might sell for the full seven
teen or eighteen cents a yard; but there
is domestic competition. There are a good
many cotton mills in the country, so that
the price is lowered by healthful compe-
tition. The tariff simply keeps out goods
that are made by foreigners who get very
small wages and free Importation of
whose cloth would break down our mills.
This is an illustration of the effects of
the tariff. The domestic cotton cloth we
have spoken of would not be sold for more
than fourteen or fifteen cents.
If 20 per cent. were added to the price
of goods bought by the w~orkingmen, as a
consequence of the tariff law, it would be
a liberal, too liberal, estimate. But what
would it show The difference between
the wages paid to German and American
bricklayers is S7.79 a week, SO that the
American receives nearly 200 per cent
more than the German, while he receives
nearly 60 per cent. more than the English
bricklayer. We take this trade simply
because it is the first to come to hand. It
does not differ from others. The Ameri-
can mechanic receives from GO to 200 per
cent. more for his work than the Euro
pean working.nan, and he may pay 90 per
cent. more for what he wears. As a mat
ter of fact, he pays much less than that.
The American workingman is probably
willing to continue.

The Admission of Dakota.

The assessors have just completed their
work in Dakota and the returns furnish
another strong argument in favor of the
admission Of that territory into the Union
as q state. The estimated amount Of
property is $161, 400, 974. 81 {. The number
of acres of land assessed is 90, 1872, SIG, the
valuation of which is $91, 1915, 729. The
valuation of town and city property
is $26, 1876, 800, and that Of horses,
cattle and sheep about $21, 00O,-
600. The increase in the number
Of churches, schoolhouses and newspa-
pers has kept even pace with this growth
in material wealth. And yet according
to Democratic theory the 100000 intelli.
gent inhabitants Of Dakota, whose in.
dustry and forethought have created this
wealth, are not fitted to exercise the
rights of American citizens. The cleo.
ton in November will be the verdict the
people will pass on this Acknowledgement
of $50, 600 voters for the benefit Of the
Democratic Observation-Disclosures Press.

L,ghtnlne,s Queer Freak

Plankingssn, Sept. S-During a thun-
derstorm last night lightning struck the
house Of j. W. Anderson, living two
miles west of town, and played some
peculiar pranks. The current passed
down the chimney and apparently hoped
into o pale OF water that sat on the back
of the stove. Here it divided into four
parts, each leaving q hole through the
pail and passing out in an opposite
direction One OF these balls of fire
struck q bed where two children were
sleeping, completely singing the hair on
the back Of the head OF q little boy. II
then passed on, burning o streak across
the tody of his little sister aud then
passing through TIE bed clothing it en-
tered the floor. The singular part oil
the affair ia that neither OF the children
seemed to be injured from the shook
other than the smrrtipg caused by the
burn received by the girl.
