AMONG the interesting facts which the
debate on the proposition to increase the
duty on tin develops are that the United
States uses four hundred thousand tons
of tin every year which enters into the
domestic economy Of the poorest people /,
the duty on tin last year was 81, 54l COO,
and as no tin is produced in this coantry
this was purely tax on labor; the Nc.
Kinley bill proposes to increase this to
$40 600, 0O0 The only argument in favor
of this duty Is that lin has been found in
South Dakota, and that If foreign tin is
faxed the Western miues may be worked
AS these South Dakota mines belong to an
English company, and are under English
direction, the proposed tariff is virtually
a tax upon sixty-fve millions Of people
TO help along an English interest.

THE efforts Of the Daily Jersey. to
prove that British manufacturers have
raised million dollars to influence tariff
Legislation, did not extend far enough to
show whom the money argument would
influence. The Democrats are already
in favor Of reducing the robbery Of the tar
if to legitimate tax for the purposes Of
supporting the Government economically
administered hence the British would not
waste gold on them. Any gold they
have to expend would necessarily be ex-
pended on the Republican members o.
Congress. They are in the majority ant
they control Legislation. Thus by mis-
take the Daily Hersey has stumbled OF
she truth in proclaiming that the legis
lators of its party are for sale.

-O'Rourke, the Irish giant, now
exhibiting with Clagget, was
knocked out while speaking at
Caldwell. He was dwelling on the
wonderful advance in the price of
silver which he alleged was brought
about by the republican congress,
when some unregenerate meddle-
some cuss (whom Tom. Catalan
says he will bet $50 was Mick)
at the back end of the hall asked
him if he paid his men more
wages now than when silver was
worth but ninety cents. The point
to the question will be better seen
when it is known that Mr..
O'Rourke is mine-owner and has
a large force of men in his employ.
Boise Democrat.
The Democrat is little mistak-
en- as to details. Before the speak
ing commenced the gallant Phil.
was discoursing on the great bene-
fits laboring men received by. the
advance of silver, when gentle
man asked him how much more he
paid his miners since the advance
of silver. The witty (?) Phil. ex-
planned in his speech at night that
it was none of the gentleman's
business, and that when his miners
wanted q raise they would not con-
suit the Caldwell gentleman. The
sally was SO weak and thin that
even enthusiastic republicans
could not repress smile of disgust.
Hon. Ben. Wilson and J, W.
Reid failed TO show up for the
political speaking Thursday even
ing. There was by far the largest
gathering ever seen in Caldwell at
a political meeting, and the failure
of the speakers to arrive occasioned
a great deal of disappointment.
Luckily Judge Weir happened to
be in the city, and he was prevailed
upon to address the multitude.
There is nothing cn,earth so aggra-
waiting as to have ann appointment
made for speaking, and then have
the speakers fail to show up. The
gathering last night was large
and enthusiastic one, and had the
speakers kept their appointment, it
would have resulted in great good
to the party. Although Judge
Weir saved the crowd from total
disappointment, yet they came to
hear Wilson and Field, and the
absence of these gentlemen put a
dampner on the spirits and enthu-
siasm which prevailed in the early
Idaho news. (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1887-1891, 1890-08-16
