GOVERNOR CAMPBELL and his cohorts
refuse to believe that tin plate is being
made or can be made in this country.
Their British friends, whom they follow
and worship, are more reasonable on
that point, although they are just as
strongly opposed to protection and
American interests as Campbell. The
following on the tin plate industry is
from the London Financial Times, a
free trade authority, and shows how
the Britishers differ from the Democrats
on this question:
'Time alone is wanting to build up the tin plate
industry in America but it is to be feared that the
Welsh manufacturers are deceiving themselves if
they imagine that decade must elapse before any
impression can be made their business by rivals
across the water. year or two, however, will
certainly intervene before the competition can be
really dangerous. Long ere that time it is to be
hoped that the American people will have torn up
the Mckinley law root and branch, at least have
pruned judciously, and signs are not wanting that
this will come about. The Welsh manufacturers
have some strong-siding champions in Chicago and
elsewhere"

WAGES AND PRICES.

Pittsburgh Dispatch.
One by one the great industries of the
Old World are overshadowed by those
here, made strong by the fostering hand
of domestic protection. Wages have
been kept up and prices forced down in
the. only legitimate way-competition
between employers, the ingenuity and
intelligence of workmen, and the skill
and energy in bringing to the support
of these the unparalleled resources of
farms, forests and mines. But protec-
ton, despite the assertions of free
traders, extends a degree further. 1t
places the American workman far in ad
vance of his British cousin, whose lot,
generally speaking, is miserable and
| hopeless one.
The free trader would have the work
| ingman believe that the adoption of his
fiscal policy by the Government would
decrease the cost of living and increase
wages. The only way we can ascertain
whether there is an atom of truth in
this idea is to reason by analogy.
Taking England as an example of free
trade country, let US see how food prices
and wages there compare with the same
prices here.
On September meats were quoted at
from % to 29 cents per pound in En-
gland, butter 81 cents per pound, eggs
81 cents per dozen, chickens 55 cents
each, -four s. per barrel. At the same
time the highest average wages paid
union laborers was $3.50 per week, while
the average wages was s. per week.
Compare this statement with food
prices and labor rates here. We find
that the American workingman receives
about four times as much wages as his
British cousin, while his food costs him
from 10 to 25 per cent. less. Is this not
a conclusive argument in favor of the
policy that protects industries so that
they can afford to pay wages which give
the workingmen chances to better their
condition in life? The attempt to dis
card the economic policy under which
this result has been obtained is to
stultify history, ignore past experience
and to bring down chaos and disaster
upon every industry now contributing to
the comfort of our people. Such at
tempts are repudiated by American
voters whenever the proposition is placed
squarely before them.

produced by our own people That poll
ticians seeking ofice-men whose inter
ests are more concerned in the emolu-
ments and honors of official position
than in substantial and productive in
dustry y-should run after an ignts tat,tus
now and again, is not surprising; but
that the actual producers of the country,
who include all but the otfice-holders
and office seekers, will be misled by the
sophistry against protection is not to be
believed.
One gratifying result of the Ohio can
vass will surely be general grasp Of
the merits of protection by all classes of
our people. When this is demonstrated,
the Democracy will quickly enough drop
the ati-tariff hobby which was most in
discretely thrust upon that party by Mr..
Cleveland at the suggestion of such poet
and doctrinaire statesmen as WatterSon,
Carlisle and Mills.

THE PROSPEROUS OHIO FARMER.

THE PROSPEROUS OHIO FARMER.
Cincinnati Commercial Gazette.
The Commercial Gazette published the
statistical report of the State Board of
Equalization, from which we learn that
there are 25,319,690 acres of farm lands
in Ohio assessed for taxation at 1885,
183,975.71, an average of S22.76 an acre.
This is as against valuation of 1884,
826,516 in 1880. In the cities and
villages of the State the assessed value
of the realty ten years ago was $412,-
683,314. This year it has been increased
to S567, ,849, ,567.54. The total valuation
of all real property in Ohio in 1880 was
81 ,097, 500, $3.50, increased for 1890 by the
Board which has just completed its
labors to 81, IA, ,033, ,563.25. 1t must be
remembered that this is not the actual
value of the property in the State, but
the valuation placed thereupon for the
purposes of taxation.
Governor Compbel and his brother
calamity walters may howl about
reduction in value of farm lands, but in
reality there has been no such reduction.
In making the valuation for taxation
the general aim has been to keep within
two-thirdS the market price of the
property. This year, because of the
long and not unjust complaints of the
farmers that they have been taxed too
high in comparison with their city
brethren, the County Boards of Equali-
zation placed an unusually low estimate
on all farm lands. The State Board
went even further, making with the ex-
ception of seven counties. reductions
upon the returns of the County Board
as far as farm lands were concerned,
and making large additions to the re-
turns covering city and village property.
The Governor, in his demagogical
way, is asserting that these reductions
prove that the farmers of Ohio are poorer
than they were ten years ago. They
prove nothing of the sort. The re-
ductions were made because the farmers
asked for them, and because the State
Board, in its wisdom, was convinced
that the cities and villages were not
bearing their fair share of taxation.
The simple fact is that under the Nc
Kinley bill, with the reduction of taxable |
values, the bounteouS harvests and a |
market for the farmer at his very door, |
farm lands have gone up, and are still |
increasing in value. The Ohio farmer |
is to be congratulated upon his pros
perity.
Belmont chronicle. [volume] (St. Clairsville, Ohio) 1855-1973, 1891-10-22
CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT.

The taxation amendment to be voted
on deserves consideration, as it, if passed,
will give scope for reforms in taxation
such as the people have been clamoring
for for years. 1t is an indisputable fact
that real estate has been compelled to
bear too large part of the burden,
owing to certain restrictions in our
constitution bearing on the taxation of
other forms of wealth. The changes
proposed in the constitution are found
in another column. In Pennsylvania
and Wisconsin the State revenues are
raised without taxing real estate at all,
except, that in the latter the educational
fund is raised from real estate. The
State income is raised from franchises,
corporations, privileges, and the like.
In Ohio these now pay nothing. If this
amendment is passed the way will be
open to relieve real estate of many of
the burdens of taxation. The only thing
necessary then is to have Legislature
that understands its business and will
perform its duty. To vote for the first
amendment a cross mark must be made
to the left of the affirmative vote. On
the constitutional convention place a
mark opposite the negative vote, for, if
the first amendment carries, there is no
need of a constitutional convention.
With Republican Legislature, there
will be no danger that the privileges
granted by the amendment will be
abused

Serious Danger

Threatens every man, woman or child
living in a region of country where
fever and ague is prevalent. since the
germs of malarial disease are inhaled

this danger. AS a means of fortifying

WHEN Republican is solicited to
vote for Myers for Representative he
should reflect on this pointer given by
the Newark Adoocate, a representative
Democratic sheet:
"If we carry the next Legislature, the Democrats
in that body will pass a law, as has been done in
Michigan, to elect the Presidential electors in this
State by Congressional districts instead of by the
State at large That will give us fourteen or fifteen
Presidential electors, where we now have none.
Those fourteen or fifteen electors in 1892 may give
us the President"
Without Republican votes Myers can
not be elected, and no Republican should
allow himself to be wheedled into a
snare. This is the time to vote the
straight ticket.
