SNEAKlNG ART OF UNDERLlNGS
1t Is amusing but it is also gratifying
to note that the protectionists are grad
ually abandoning the fallacies they main
tanned in the campaign Of 1888 Com
menting on the statement that Spain had
conceded the free entry Of American
-four to the Spanish West Indies for one
million barrels per year at SO per barrel.
where Spain used to send half million
barrels at sl2, the Morning News says.
This sacrifice by Spain Of home indus
tries 70 colonial interests cannot be very
pleasant for that country. but the gain
both to Cuba and to the United States
will be very considerable
Now, according to the protectionism
dogma, that is rank heresy In this
country It is considered good policy to
pay 800 per cent. more for tin. 200 per
cent. more for wool and greatly increased
per centsges on about 600 other
articles on various pleas Of inter
ested persons. If -four costs SO much in
Spain that she cannot supply her colonies
at less than $12 per barrel, then she toe
would gain by buyingI American flour
in precisely the same way that this
inconsisted protectionist writer says that
''the gain both to Cuba and to the United
States viii be very considerable"
That is nothing but truth and good
sense but 1t is absolutely subverslve ant
destructive to protectionism. It gives
away the whole case Of protectionism
Mr., Sperry by that CLEAN Of good sense
by that one slip Of the pen, shows tina
he is not protectionist except now an,
then from partisan necessity.
II Il Is an advantage to exchange o

the extension of slavery to the Western
Territories, because It was IAN institu-
ton established by Divine will' was not
more lnsolent than the plea Of Anmi-
down that the tariff duty must be In
creased to prevent the destruction OF the
wooden industry or the abolition Of the
sheep raising business. This sentiment
prevailed most intensely in
south Carolina, Georgia and Mis-
sissippi, where slave labor was most
profitable In those states In Kentucky,
Missouri, Maryland and Delaware where
Henry Clay advocated gradual emancipa-
ton and where slavery was not so profit
able these dogmas of the divine right
and for the extension OF slavery were
not 80 prevalent or SO intense. IL the
states OF New York and New Jersey there
was 30 little profit in slave labor that the
slaves were manumitted. In Boston the
trade in slaves was not abandoned till
there was absolutely no profit
in importing slaves and selling
them to the South. Thus W,
cannot expect Pennsylvania manu-
facturers to forsake the system Of tariff
robbery by which they grow rich, any
more than we expected the South Caro-
lima slave holders to abandon slavery

THE true position to be taken In
awarding contracts for public works Is to
make them open for all bidders. In the

saved over $50, 600 by accepting foreign
bid, In the case Of the Equitable Guar
antee and Trust ompSny Wilmington
bidder obtained the contract because he
was the lowest bidder. as be should have
been. If the home bidders for the city s
public woi ks cannot furnish their own
stone and sand cheaper than foreign
bidders Of course they should not have
the contracts. They should not receive
bonus for doing work which they can
do cheaper than others. In the case Of
