with more and more emphasis, until
with much manner she informed her
audience: by means of powerful

A tariff is tax that has to be paid
by the consumer of the article taxed.
The largest buyers are the farmers
and laborers, and consequently they
pay the most of the tariff taxes. In
return what corresponding benefit do
they receive? Does the farmer get a
larger price for his agricultural prod
ucts, and does the laborer receive
wages high enough to compensensate
him for the increased price he pays
for what he buys, caused by the tariff
tax? We say not. The farmers and
laborers bear the extra burdens caused
by the exhorbitant tariff tax, and the
prices of the farmers products are not
increased nor the wages Of the laborers
advanced, by reason of the protective
tariff. The farmers products have their
price fixed by the European markets,
and the laborer' wages are fixed by the
supply and demand. 1t is ruinous
system for farmers and laborers, but
it is a prosperous one for those whose
money is invested in the manufacture
of the protected articles.

"The tariff makes you market.
1t enables us to build up vast bus
mess and employ many hands at good
wages. These hands must be fed and
it follows that they must buy the food
which you produce" This is what
the manufactures who demand tariff
say to the farmer. Under this ar
rangement the manufacturers' benefit
is direct one, while the farmers is
indirect. Suppose our friend the
farmer should now come forward and
say this: at is our turn now to re-
ceive this direct benefit. Let us have
tariff and other laws framed for the
purpose of increasing the price paid
for farm products and making farm
ing more prosperous generally. This
will put more money in our pockets and
enable us to buy more of your goods.
You will thus have a much better

A Tariff on Labor Needed.

A large proportion of the present
immigration is made of Italians, Hun
garians, and the quality of it all, ex;
cept that from Norway and Sweden,
is distinctly inferior to that of twenty
years ago.
United States Consul Jones of Pra-
que, says that the stream of Hungar-
ian emigration from the United States
to Hungary is nearly as large as that
from Hungary to the United States.
They come to the United States I'M
derbid the present workingmen live
on a scale if anything more degraded
than at home save every possible
cent accumulate q few hundred dol
lars return to Hungary invest it !;
come back TO the United States, and
repeat the process until they have &C.
quired enough to live without work
in their native land.
This is deterioration of, and de-
graduation to, American labor. In
order to prevent this the United States
have passed the severest and most
stringent laws that can be devised to
protect labor from the competition of
the Chinese. This Hungarian and
Italian competition is nearly, if not
quite, as severe and demoralizing, yet
little or no attention is paid to it.
The workingmen themselves OCCASION
ally talk and resolve about it, but they
really do little or nothing and congress
does nothing to cut off this competition
which is one of the chief sources of
the present decentralization of the labor

burgers whose fortunes range from
one to three millions, the majority of
whom were iron and steel barons.
Their money has been made largely
out of the cheap foreign labor who
come over to work for scant wages,
live in squalor, land drive out Amer
leans, often Union veterans and their
descendants. Subsisting mainly on
potatoes and bacon. they do not fur
nish the farmer with that home mar
ket the men whom, by their starvation
practices, they have expelled, afforded
the agriculturalists.
If the working men were wise they
would not waste their time, labor and
money in constant strikes against a
cause which is persistently lowering
their wages by its incessant COMPETE
ton. Strikes are but the levees of
the lower Mississippi. They simply
try to raise higher still the barriers
against the stream which is being fed
by the ever-fowing floods Of cheap
immigration.
Instead of attempting the task of
Sisyphus, by pcrpetually fighting for
higher wages that are so constant
ly being pulled down by competition,
the workmen should demand the levy
ing of per capita tax on every i'm
migrant that comes into this country
and il should be so high that only the
desirable would think of com ing

The Peoples Wants.

What the people want isa reduction
Of expenses, fewer subsidies. less ex.
travagance, more economical admin
istration of the government, and re-
duction of taxation all along the line.
They want a revenue system in which
the accumulated wealth will be made
to bear something like an equitable
share of the burdens of the government.
Such system was evidentally intended
by the trainers of the constitution
when they conferred upon congress
the power to levy taxes, consisting of
both impost and excise duties, for pay
ing the public debt and current ex-
penses of the government. 1t was
clearly not intended that man with
large family TO feed and clothe, who
is barely able to keep floor under
his feet and roof over his head,
should pay in the form of taxes as
much as one having small family
and large income and bank account.
But under this barDarousan one-sided
tariff system he pays vastly more. In
due time the people in exercise of their
own intelligence will render verdict
in favor of constitutional system
which insures to them reduction of
taxation upon the necessaries of life.
Such system is not impracticable
and the people know it. 1t can easily
be reached by making the wealthy of
the country bear its rightful and equit-
able share of governmental burdens.
