THE FACTS ABOUT PIG IRON THAT CONTRADICT
DEMOCRATIC ORATORS

Sir agree with you earnestly when you say a
political party should deal in facts and have honesty
enough to correct misstaements and downright false

weak which refuses to correct false statement;

journal Of certain political feeling that the tariff enables
the robber(? manufacturer to swell his profits to that
extent although false. repeated day after day APP
peains to that ignorant class which accepts unques-
tonable all the press publishes. As a sample of how
utterly lacking in facts is this charge that enormously
high prices are due to the tariff it to me to

MCKINLEY AT WORCESTER.
He Talks About Protection to Con-

WORCESTER. Mass, March 23.-Ex-Con-
gresham Mckinley of Ohio. was accorded
great reception at Mechanics Hall this eve
ming. The hall was not large enough to hold
the audience that came together. Among
those present on the platform were Senator
George F. Hoar, Mayor F. A. Harrington,
ex.Govern6r John Q. A. Brackett. Hon.
district attorney. Congressman Joseph II.
Walker presided and introduced the speaker,
who said: "The first question that confronts
any government is how shall money be
raised to meet the necessary expenses. To
carry on our government takes million dol
lars every "a hours. The. government can
not create money. Its only assets are the
public lands. Its only way to raise revenue
Is to get Congress to lay taxes. Both politt-
cal parties agreed that internal taxation will
not do. This is inquisitorial. There are two
plans, the first Is that which looks for reve-
nue. only; the other, while looking for reve-
nue., is at the same time protective, with due
regard to the occupations and industries

the lowest rate that will call out the greatest
importation of products. 1t imposes duty
upon goods which cannot be produced at
home. A revenue tariff is always paid by
the consumer. This cannot always be said
free trade good thingP Il is il you have
stopped growing; but here decay steps In.
They say there Is free trade between the
states with g., ,00O, 900 Of people, why not with
all the world? They forget that we live un-
der different government from every other
government in the world. A foreigner Is ex-
empt from all duties to the government, why
should he enjoy the privileges of citizenship
In the Uuited States and its markets? Our
population is one-twentieth Of the popula-
tion of the globe. We consume. in many
products, third of all produced. We pro-
pose, from this time forward to manufacture
most of what we consume.
He spoke of the accomplishment Of the
5lst Congress, saying that no Democratic
majority in Congress will be elected in the
next ten years that will be able to repeat 1t.
Protective tariffs do net build Chinese
wall around a country, for in the twelve
years since 1879 we have exported more than
In the II years from 1890.
We know what thirty years of protection
have done. Shall 1t be changed? No!
