suIphuric acid. 100000 feet of lum-
Der. Think of the diversified industries
affected by the use of this immense
amount of crude material; the value to
our own iron, lead and lumber regions
here in Wisconsin,; the money paid in
handling and transporting; and above
all it is estimated the new industry will
pay out $23. 600, 900 annually in aCGges,
and this will be kept right at home in
stead of being sent abroad, while the
cost of tinware will not be increased the
price of a weeks smoke to any man if at
all, and be is still saving bis ? cents a
pound on sugar. Do you sec any in
consistency in that?
AS to the duty ON flax and wool the
actual increase is more fancied than
real, Flax straw is reduced from $50
to s. per ton, flax undressed is left the
same, while dressed fax is increased
from $40 to $50 per ton, 10 better pro-
tect the finishing process at our own
mills. Woods of the first class are fixed
at II cents per pound, while the old law
was from 10 20 u cents. Woods of the
second class are II cents per pound
while under the old law they were 10 to
II cents. On third class wool the duty
is changed from specific to adj valorum,
making the charges vary according to
value of goods, and all tending to the
protection of home wooden mills.

The Equity of Protection.

Underlying all protective legislation
there is stratum of justice which the
great body of American voters cannot
be induced TO permanently ignore
Money is required for maintaining the
machinery of government, and as long
as so much of this has to be raised by
taxing the mills and mines and machin-
cry of manufacturers, and the homes
and lands of workingmen and farmers,
the love of fair play so characteristic of
the American people will insist that no
alien be given the right TO compete in
our markets against the production of
these citizens until he has made a cor
responding contribution to the national
treasury.
Recognition of this fact is the justifi-
cation of protection. And when there
is added the further fact that the stand
ard of American citizenship has lifted
the wages of all classes of workers to a
higher plane than is recognized in any
other country-a condition which it
is neither desirable nor possible to ma
terially alter-voters need look no
further for their warrant in maintain
ing the policy of defending the home
market against competition from work
ers and traders occupying level below
that of the average American citizen.
Free trade attorneys are ceaseless in
efforts to beiog the issue with distorted
statistics and to mislead voters with
promises of cheaper goods, but they are
certain to fail iu the end, for an inherent
love of justice, leaving out of the count
all selfish considerations. can be relied
on to refuse to virtually hand over
American markets to European trades
men and operatives by handicapping
the manufactures of this country with
rate OF taxation and a standard of
wages from which their foreign compe-
titOrs are in most part exempt.
