FALSE PROTECTION.


Prot Richard T. Ely in his 14th of
series of articles written for the Baltimore
Sun on "Protective Tariff" asserts that the
first argument for the issue was protection
for infant industry" which finally became
an acute embarrassment to its advocates
and met only ridiculing smile in opposi-
ton. He further says that new special
plea in its behalf was originated 1910, that
of"protection of American labor against the
pauper labor of Europe" and that this was
culled from the platform of the Labor Party
of 1925. This article concludes with the
following paragraph, which is full of I'm
answerable facts destroying the false doc
trine Of protected labor:
"But is American labor, after all, pro-
tected? Let us at once 60 TO the heart Of
things. i'll have anything 10 sell, it is con-
ceivable that may be helped in two ways
by government. To say that want TO sell
thing means simply that l want to get
something else for it. sell that may buy.
Money simply comes in as medium. A
farmer sells corn for money, and with that
money buys shoes. Corn is really exchanged
for shoes, and money Is used as medium
merely to facilitate exchange. New, If gov
eminent in some way can increase the sup
ply OF those things which wish to buy,
may be benefited More will be offered me
for what have to sell. On the other hand,
If government can diminish the supply Of
the article want to sell. i can get moro for
IL, and l am benefited. How stands the cas-
with the wage receivera What has he t.
sell? The commodity labor, and nothing
else. With that commodity (labor) he mus
purchase all other things. Now what il
government doing for himf Is government
rendering labor scarce and commoditie
PLENTIFUL On the contrary, no duty is pu
on labor. Labor comes in free. Not only
that; our protectionists are helping TO in
crease the supply of labor and 10 keep ii
price down. Do not federal consuls en-
courage emigration from Europe to Amer
icaP Do not States and Territories send
agents abroad to aid and abet foreign labo
in its purpose 10 fill up the supply of labo
in our own market? Do not the protection
list employers themselves keep their agents
in every part Of Europe to help swell thu
throng Of those coming To our shores, and
in case of demand tor higher wages, to take
the place of the Disseminated? Strange Ye
it is all true Every word of 1t, and the or
gans of the protectionists gfoat over the in
creasing supply of labor in our markets
The commodity which the iabcrer has to sell
is not protected. All that government does is
to help increase its supply and thus reduce
its price. -...4
But then it must be that government is
trying to increase the supply Of those things
which workingmen want in exchange for
their commodity, labor God forbid 1t is
taxing them and rendering them scarce II
looks as if government were working against
labor, doesn't itP A funny world, isn't it9

IAN examination 4 the report Of the pres
ident and directors, recently made to the
stockholders, will show that, from the time
this administration entered upon its duties,
in June, 1870, the expenses of each month
were greatly reduced below the correspond
ing month under the previous administra-
ton; and, also, that the monthly expenses
OF this year have been still reduced below
the corresponding months Of 1870 even"
at will further be seen that the ratio of
working expenses to receipts in the last
eighteen months, from LIST of June, 1870,

over 300 of the citizens Of Springfield are

themselves entitled to ignore the sugges-
