have not all been bad. In a speech
delivered in congress, May Is, 1882,
when the appointment of a tariff
commission was under consideration.
he said:
Il do not favor a tariff enacted upon
the ground of protection simply for
the sake of protection, because !
doubt the existence of any constitu-
tional warrant for any such construc-
ton or the grant of any such power
1t would manifestly be in the nature
of class legislation, and to such legis-
lation, favoring one class at the ex-
pense of any other, | have always
been opposed. In my Judgment the
question of free trade will not arise
practically in this country during our
lives, if ever, so long as we con-
tinue to raise revenue by duties on
imports, and therefore the discussion
of that principle is an absolute waste
Of time"
The words quoted above, applied to
the present situation, are SO true aud
SO well founded upon the principles of
right and justice, that Mr.. Randall.
Pig Iron Kelly, Major Mckinley and
all the other protection lights of the
country cannot gainsay them.

Political Opinions of the Press.
The Monroe Gazette.

The Monroe Gazette.
Even 50 recently as "a the Repub-
lican party pledged itself to reduce the
surplus by such methods as will
relieve the tax payer" holding still to
the idea that the tax payers suffered
from heavy taxes and was entitled to
relief. But that position is now aban-
doned, and the only relief offered by
that party is the relief offered by
cheap whisky and tobacco.
The Milwaukee Review.
When considering the tariff question
let the workingman remember that he
is consumer, as well as producer; and
that he is compelled, under the com
petitiye wages system, to sell his labor
in a free market, in competition with
every other laborer, while he must buy
his own products in a market where
prices are enhanced to the benefit of
the capitalist, by an average tax of
forty-seyen per cent. Keep these
truths always in mind, and you will be
enabled to arrive at a correct answer
to the query; does protection benefit
or damage the American laborer:
The Lacrosse Chronicle.
Senator Allison is trying to construct
Il platform for his party that will cover
ont of sight the high tax and free
whiskey planks in the Chicago plat
form. 1t is a hard task the senator
has undertaken. 1t will take heap
Of mental lumber.
If the reduction of tariff taxes from
forty-seven per cent. to forty per cent.
is free trade, the repeal Of the tax on
whiskey must mean free whiSkey.
But still our Republican friends con
tend that it is not So
