WAGES PER WEEK.

According 10 the theory that high tariff makes good wages workneu should get good deal more in Germany than in England But according To this table they get almost exactly r per cent more in England than in Germany. The Tm.s docs not Youch for the accuracy Of the iable but since it comes from good high-tsritf source, the defenders of the spolation system eau not consistently reject ihe lesson which it teaches, that high far fl, or tsrif for protection, does not make high wages And yet, in the face of these 1gures from Maine, we will soon see Mir. Blaine of Maine roaming up aud down the land and telling workmen that 1t is our mir tculous system of hgh-teriff taxation, and that slore, which enables them to get higher wages than arc paid n Europe.
 The truth is that high tsfln does pot make high ages, and those who try to mako an American workman believe that It does are deliberately attempting 10 deceive hlm. They gre deliberately attempting 10 induce him to vote mou.lrous taxes on himself, in common with niue tenths of lhe American people, 10 the eud that the other one tehth may rot in wealth and lord it over tbe mass of their c0untrymep.-Ch edgO IiBiSS
