It Makes Very Weak Assault on Frotcc.
- rs tion Principles. :..-.-
The minority report is signed by all
the Democratic members Of the commit.
tee. 1t says: The minority contends for
the principle Of just and equal taxation
upon all. according to their ability to
bear the burden, while the majority has
in this bill thoroughly committed itself
to the. policy Of un just aud unequal tax
alton of the many for the benefit Of the
few: We are as anxious as the majority
can possibly be to promote and encour-
age American industries and advance the
interests Of American laborers, and those
who oimpute 10 us any other purpose or
design, either misunderstood or misrcp.
resent our position. But we believe that
both these objects can DO accomplished
by reducing the burdens OF taxation,
and not by increasing them, and that the
benefits thus secured willbe armore
permanent and far more satisfactory to
those directly concerned than any sup.
posed advantage that can result from a
different policy. &,''es
The report attacks come OF the details
Of the bill as follows: The lowest grades
Of wooden yarn worth not over 80 cents
per pound are to be subjected to duty
Of lie per, cent, while the most costly
yarn will pay II per cent. One grade
Of coarse cheap blankets will be required
to pay lO6 per cent, but the finest
blankets will pay ~ per cent. The
coarsest and cheapest woolen hats will be
subject to duty Ill per cent and the
finest to &C per cent. Woolens and child.
rens cheapest dress goods with cotton
warp arc to be taxed LOG per cent and
the finest IS per cent. Woolen shawls
of the coarsest and lowest grades used
by the poorest people will pay 1856 per
cent duty, and worsted goods Of the
lowest grade will pay l30 per cent, while
the highest grade will pay 90 per cent.
OF tho metal schedule tho report says
that there are many increases and scarce.

imported at all. 'G.s a- -.,.
4 y +. 4 AGRICULTURAL MATTERS.
The bill increases the rates OF duty on
all classes OF wool imported into
this = y country. These increases
have been mado principally
upon the demand OF a few
large flock masters in the State Of Ohio,
and they will be defended BY the ma
jority upon the alleged ground that they
are beneficial to the farmers OF the
country who keep sheep on their lands.
The fact Is that wool is one Of our least
Important agricultural products in point
Of actual value and by comparison With
others, even in the State Of Ohio it does
not, amount. to more thap three
per cent Of the total value Of farm pro.
ducts in that State. For the furthe,
purpose OF inducing the farmers OF the
country to believe that they can and
will derive some benefit FROM the pro
tectiye policy, this bill imposes various
rates OF duty upon certain important
agricultural products, which it is vel
known could not be'imported 10 an,
, material extent with or without duty.
