The Tariff Improperly Emphasized.

Governor Penuoyer ia North American Review.
In the last presidential canvass. for in
stance, the discussion was cunningly con-
fined to the tariff, while other abuses, ten
fold more baneful in their results upon the
national prosperity, were entirely I'M
noticed. Neither party opposed the in
equitable tariff system itself, the most I'M
just and unequal mode OF taxation ever de-
vised by the ingenuity of man, and neither
party opposed that most pernicious adj
justment of the system by which the great
masses of the people are taxed, by the levy
of protective duties, for the benefit of one
or more particular industries. Both
parties were pledged to the tariff system
and to its protective feature; the one by
its record and its platform, and the other
by the bill then pending in congress. The
sole issue which engaged the attention of
a great nation of more than 10000, 900 of
people was whether, in the distribution of
favors by protective tariff. the producer
should share the spoils with the manu-
facturer; one party claiming that the rob-
berry of the consuming public by the tariff
should be shared by the producer as well
as the manufacturer. while the other party
claimed that public interest demanded
that such robbery in behalf of the pro-
queer SHOulQ cease. anu InaL IL sIOulu De
sanctioned alone tor the benefit of the
manufacturer. And thus the ability of
our statesmen and the attention of our
people we're centered exclusively upon the
particular amount of the mint, anise. and
cummin extorted by the tariff taxation
from the overburdened taxpayer that
shold go to the government and upon the
particular amount that should go 10 the
favored industries, while the weishtier
matters-the oppression OF the people by
the pernicious tariff system itself. as well
as by number of other equally indefensi-
bic lnstrumentalities-we entirely ig-
nored. The great cormorants of aggrand-
lied capital and of corporate power. which
are now preying upon the very yitals of
all the industries of our national common
wealth. are, indeed. well pleased when
public attention can thus be diverted from
their wholesale plumber of our people TO
the far smaller plumber involved by any par
ticular arrangement of tariff duties. Those
statesmen, so-called, the scope OF whose
vision is inadequate to the discovery of
any governmental abuses except those in
hicted by some Objectionable adjustment
OF our tariff laws, are. although perhaps
unwittingly. the most seryiceable stool
pigeons of corporate and capitalistlc
power. inasmuch as they draw attention
exclusively 10 the wrongs of the tariff rob-
berry, thus leaving these greater public
robbers free scope to continue their I'M
stinted pillage both of the public treasury
and of private pockets
