Iowa County democrat. [volume] (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1877-1938, 1891-10-23
With the following paragraph III

With the following paragraph The
Madison Democrat completely knocks
out the silly old claim that the for
eigner Is compelled to pay our tariff
taxes:
According to the tariff organs
the man who ships the goods to this
country for sale pays the tax, and not
the American consumer. Very well.
Now under a recent decision Of the
treasury department with regard to
the duty on hat trimmings about
100000 In excessive duty will have
to be refunded to somebody. 10
whom? If the theory Of the organs is
correct the European exporter viii get
that $2,0OO,000, yet we venture to say
that not one dollar Of that money will
90 abroad. 1t will be paid to the New
York importers, who have already
levied toll on the consumer in the
United States, to compensate them
selves for an increased tax.

Gov. peck's remarks at the fairs
about boys stealing watermelons, has
greatly affected the republican press OF
the state; and indignant protests
against 1t are still reyerberating
through columns usually devoted TO
picturing protection rs the source of
every blessing, or defending the ex-
treasurers for pocketing the interest
upon the public funds. Said colored
brother to his minister; al wish you
would quit sich talk about lying and
stealing, and preach good comforting
sermon, 1t throws q GOODNESS over the
meeting" Next time Gov, Peck Will
doubtless take into consideration the
feelings of the high tax editors In
choosing subject for public ad-
dress, He can hardly expect to suit
them exactly because to do that he
would have to tell them that the tariff
Is not u tax or that protection reduces
prices. But he might talk about some
thing that wouldn't throw such a cold
ness over the meeting,
Iowa County democrat. [volume] (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1877-1938, 1891-10-23

On the eighth page of The Democrat
appears II table Of figures Of great i'm
portance TO taxpayers 1t is an alb
straCt Of the statements Of items
appearing upon the assessment rolls
II Is especially desirable that members
of the county board become familiar
with these figures before the annual
meeting, In order that there may be Il
fair and equitable assessment and
equalization made 10y that body. The
greatest obstacle In the way of an easy
solution of this veXatious question Is
the existing general lack of confidence
in the work of the different assessors
and boards OF review, This could be
remedlcd by the people of the different
towns and cities giving moro complete
returns of their taxable property; and
it Is safe to say that 1t would pay them
to do It, Such Ia human nature that u
town making comparatively fair re-
turn stands better show with the
board of supervisors than one making
u shamefully low return. The abstract
above referred to is published in pur-
suance of a resolution introduced 10y j.
j. llosllen, Of Dodgeville, and adopted
by the board ut their last meeting, in
January last. 1t is hoped that the in
creased publicity thus given to the
figures contained therein viii result
in more careful and conscientious work
by boards Of review, assessors and tax
payers another year

"They talk about the tinplate tax.
Suppose we do MT make u pound of
tinplate. The duty on it has been in
creased from | cent TO : 2-l0 cents,
but you are not paying cent more
for your tin than you did before, The
old tariff on tin brought 100000
into the treasury. The new one will
bring in Sl6,O00,O00 Suppose we
continue to import IL ALL We've n
clear gain of 100000, AND YOUR
TIN ISN'T COSTING YOU A CENT MORE"
So said Major Mckinley, the great
advocate of high tariff taxation, in a
recent speech mt Nenia, Ohio. But
the actual price lists furnished by tin
plate and metal brokers show that tin
is costing the American people over
twenty-five per cent. more than it did
before the passage of the Mckinley
tin-plate tariff bill Therefore Major
Mckinley is as far off in regard &c
prices MS he is in regard to the correct
principles of political economy; OF
else he seeks to falsify the facts and
the truth is not in him. The increase
of seaboard taxes upon tin-plate and
other articles of necessity by the
tariff bill of 1890, can never be made
to appear just or right. The high
takers then had the power to impose
the tremendous and unnecessary bur.
den which they did upon the country
but it is not now within their power

and the mysterious might OF the G. A. r.

| We are in position to declare with au-
! thorily what tho calamity will he. Gen.
JoST-s's friends are not urging him to take
an independent nomination. Suicide is
crime. But they are urging him, and most
un"ie"iy and even witkedly urging him, to
| have lis noustnchcs shaved OF clean as
testimony against the Democracy In case it
doesn't nominate him for Governor. The
NEST picturesque figure in the Democratic
party Of New York would thus DO shorn OF

OF New York, which las long nestled in the
! grateful shade Of those marvellous mus.
tachios. would he left without shelter and
berc!t of its most glorious landmark.
We believe tina. this calamity can be
avcr.cd. 1t will tie impossible for
tho Democrats to nominate more than
ono man. and Gen. JONES may not
