THE PRINCIPLE IS THE SANE.

A Kansas farmer sold beef animal to a
butcher for 2 cents 4 pound, and agreed to
take quarter Gift for his own use. The
butcher charged him regular rates for the beef,
and when settlement was had the farmer
was found indebted to him in the sum Of Sz.
Thi, was not caused by the Republican party
and the "robbsr tariff. ."-MoHHfaiHeer The
principles however much the same. The
Iaboing man who is consumer and not pro-
ducer has been told for these many years
that the tariff IS imposed on foreign importa-
tons in order to render nugatoy the foreign
composition to bis employer in order that such
employer might give him higher wages for his
labor, This laborer watches the processes Of
this tariff scheme and his study Of tie matter
leads to this conclusion: "in consequence Of
the protective iariff have to pay higher
price for everything use. When make
contract with my employer he igives me just
such wages as he finds he is compelled to give
under the law Of supply and demand, and II
will not work as cheaply as he wants me to
then he will employ cheap foreign labor. So
I find 50 far as I am concerned that protec-
tive tariff isa delusion and snare." Our
contemporary is unfortunate IN his compari
sons.

NOR ALONE.

Not democrats alone are protesting n
gainst the scheme Of The majority of Nc
Kilney's committee to Increase the tariff
taxes. The Tslcgyafh Of Philadelphia, a
very staunch republican paper,has the fol;
lowing to say:
Among the other industries which are
absolutely controlled by a close eombina
ton or trust, Is that OF plate and window
glass manufacturers. Last Seek this trust
met and advanced the prices of al It's
manufacturer 10 percent. A day or two
later the committee on ways and means
announced Though the newspapers that
had agreed TO advance the duties on plate
and window glass. IL the committee had
been a partner with the Plate and
Window glass Trust Il could not have done
no more than Il did. The present ad va
loren duty on n.window-giars Is from 66o4
to I3I.3s; on plaie-gla II Is from " TO
I4A. Such a duty would certainly be
thought py any reasonable mind high
enough; but the Plate and Window-glass
Trust and ways and means committee are
resolved that, II possible, Il shall be made
prohibitory--a thing most difiicult 10 do,
as the French article is so much superior TO
tire American as to render Its use necessary
TO picture and mirror dealers. They must
have the elearest glass, no matter what u
costs.
That the present duty Is high enough, or
too hIgh,will not be disputed, we think, by
any one who has noticed the suit for an
injunction heard by Judge Mckennan and
Acheson In the United States Circuit
Court at Plttsburg, the other day, 10 re
strain the Piusburg Plate Glass Company
from issuing $7so,ooo capital stock to u
Ford & Co. The evidence submitted to
the court showed that at meeting Of the
company, held at Creighton on the 70th Of
January last past, II was officially an
nounced that tFe net earnings on the capi-
tai of $7,75oooo amounted In 1859 to IS
per cent. Regular dividends OF 73 per
cent. were paid during the year, and At the
meeting OF the 1oth ultimo special diyi-
dend OF IIA per cent. was declared, which
represents net profit of $967s5oo. Fur
ther, the official report stated that the plate
glass industry was exceedingly hourishing,
the company's several works being pushed
to their utmost capacity, and the orders
already received for 1890 would make the
profits much larger than those Of 1850. A
year ago the actual value Of stock Of this
company was $t,474s.ooo, and II was then
increased 10 represent It's present value.
namely, $775oooo, on which dividends
of 34Z per cent. were paid as the earnings
of single tweivemonth.
