Orleans County Court.

Court convened again Monday after
noon, when the remaining evidence IN the
case of Bridgman VS.. Corey was put in.
The arguments were begun Tuesday
morning, May opening for the plaintiff,
followed by Prouty and Crane, Bates clos
ing. After receiving instructions from
the court, the jury retired, returning
verdict Wednesday afternoon for the
plaintiff to recover the face of the note,
$500, interest, and costs of suit.
Thursday morning, the case of New
port vs. Highgate was commenced, John
Young and Prouty & Farrell for Newport
and C. G. Austin and Crane & Alfred for
the defendant town.
The case is an action of general assump-
sit brought under the pauper law for the
support of Alfred Johnson and family in
1878 by Newport, the claim being for
about $500, and that Johnson was resi-
dent of Highgate, where he had gained
a legal residence. The defense is that
said johnson had no legal residence in
the latter town, aud also that if he had,
the defendant is not liable under the law
The following gentlemen are empanel'
ed as jurors Campbell, Stratton, Smith

Friday was taken up in the examination

"Is the Tariff a Taxi"

Mr.. EdaOr,-I am careful read
er of your paper, for both your edlto-
rials and your selected matter are
good. But 1 don't quite catch on to
the logic of the article headed-"lt
the Tariff is Tax" This is a sam
pie paragraph of that article:
eff the tariff is a tax, why IS 1t
that plate glass, with duty OF aoont
50 per cent, can be bought for nearly
one-third less now than in 1860
Now would it not be equally to the
point to ask, elf the annual levy
made upon our farms by the state,
town and school district is tax, why
is it that our farms sell for so much
less than formerly? For one, l fa-
vored the Mckinley bill because L
thought it was Il taxa tax which
would raise the price of my potatoes,
wool and eggs. But lately, since the
bill was made law. many papers, and
among them the Tribune, are trying
to prove tnat this tariff is going to
make prices lower. In late issue it
claims that the high price of potatoes
and eggs is due, not to the tariff, but
to a scarcity and it shows to its own
satisfaction that out of the duty of 5
cents Il dozen on eggs,4 cents is paid
by the Canucks, and only cent add
ed to the price of eggs in the city
markets. This one cent it admits to
be a tax now, but thinks even that
will soon disappear. The article was
seemingly written for city people,
though it appears also in the Weekly.
As it occupied the position usually
assigned to the humorous article, L
have not been able to decide whether
it was meant as a joke on the farm
ers or not. Collector Beard of Bos-
ton, Vermonter by birth, says he
has dealt in wool all his life; anC
adds that wool has not yet advanced
any, and he does not think it is going
to. Is this another joke on the farm
ers? 1t is fair to say that | am dem
: ocrat; but as | have always minded
| my own business, and been peacea
| BILE, | have never been molested TO
my opinions by my republican neigh
bors. | take about twenty republic
an papers and try to keep posted o.
: political matters. My father was
manufacturer, and raised me to be i
favor of high protective tariff. Th
= Mckinley bill is the most favorabl
u tariff for farmers that ever was made
J., and all my republican papers sale
" before its passage that it would rails
the price of farm products, becaus
y it heavily taxed those from Canadi
But if it is not going to be tax, an
prices are not to be bettered, VIII;
= good is to me, or any other

The above from our "Farmer'
reader originates with one who is, we
venture to say, more familiar with |
the pen than with the plOw. From |
democratic predictions and sympa-
thies he, without doubt, inclines to-
ward what is known as the free trade
doctrine. A short question may pro-
woke a long disquisition on the sub
iect of the tariff, which we can not
here give. But the article challeng-
es answers to some of its inquiries.
ssIs the tariff a tax?" The article in
which the question was asked appear
ed in a republican journal, and was
suggested, doubtless, as an answer
to the oft repeated statement made
by politicians and democratic papers
that the tariff is tax. That is, they
claim that when a duty is placed on
an article of foreign production, such
article costs the consumer the original
cost with the duty added thereto.
This argument is fallacious. 1t pre-
sumes that the certain article would
and must be sold for a certain fixed
price, with duty on or off it pre-
sumes further that the purchaser and
the country, for that matter, would
be compelled to buy the specified ar
ticle of the foreign producers at a
given price, now and hereafter. This
does not admit, what has been proved
true i'll many cases, that foreign pro-
ducers not only could but wonld cut
prices heavily, rather than lose out
market; nor does it admit that pro-
tective duties which keep out the
products of foreign countries, grown
or made by cheap labor, enhance
prices and encourage the farmer to
produce more than heretofore; and
stimulate the manufacturer to build
factories, to manufacture at home
what had formerly been bought
abroad. Meanwhile improved meth
ods of agriculture and of manufacture
operate to bring down the price o-
almost everything to the consumer
, while the producer has a fair margin
of profit left.
Reference is made in the paragraph
quoted to the manufacture of glass il
q this country under high tariff and th
q reduction in it's cost. It is well TO knoy
: that until of late large share of Gel
tain kinds of glass used here wa
made in Germany and other foreig
n countries. The placing of heav
+ duty on glass caused the erection
e glass manufactures in the Unite
IS States, and to-day glass is compare
h lively cheap. 1t is made entirely
lie American laborers, and every margi
l. of profit in it of labor, material an
is sale is kept at home. Nobody no
~ complains that glass factories hay
is been built, and thousands would
D, thrown out of employment if foreie
st countries should make all the gla
n consumed here. The Mckinley b
of increased slightly the duty on tin, al
o. tin plate mills are now being built
90 many localities. When huilt, thou
on ands of laborers will find a new
or dustry, and many who had been
er producers of agricultural produc
will be benefited thereby.

WASHINGTON LETTER
ESPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE OF THE MONITOR
Washington, d. c., Feb. 8, 1891.


The president has cause for feeling
in a good humor, Notwithstanding the
belief that the democrats of tie
House have in caucus agreed to do |
their utmost to force the calling OF
an extra session of congress. The |
reciprocity treaty with Brazil, which
was transmitted to the senate last
week, has received nothing but praise
on all sides even the most rabld
democrats admit that it marks the be-
Ginning of a new era in our foreign
trade and that it is particularly favor
able for the extension of trade in our
agricultural products. OF course
these favorable opinions are pleasing
to the president and Secretary Blalne'
even to a greater extent than they
are to the rest of the republicans.
But Mr.. Harrison was given an
other pleasure by the action of the
House in knocking out the PROPOSE
ton to attach a free coinage rider to
an appropriation bill, for have it on
the very best of authority that his
mind is fully made to veto the free
and unlimited coinage of silver, no
matter what guise it may reach him
in. But the vote of the HOuse-134
to 137-sustaining the Speakers de-
cision against attaching free coinage,
as rider, to an appropriation BILL
has convinced most people that no
free coinage bill will reach the presl-
dent at this session, although the sill
yer men claim that the vote against
the Speakers decision did not repre-
sent the full strength of antl-free
coinage men. There were six mem
bers who did not vote that will vote
against free coinage, if vote is ever
taken upon it, free from any side IS
sues. and several of those who voted
against the Speaker would also vote
against free coinage.
Seven democrats = Andrew, OF
Mass. Clancy, Dunphy, Spinola and
Wiley. of New York and Mutchler
and Vaux of Penn.-voted with the
republicans to sustain the Speaker,
and eleven republicans-Bartine OF
Nevada; Carter of Montana; Clark
of Wyoming Connell and Laws OF
Nebraska Hermann of Oregon
Kelley and Turner of Kansas; LIND
of Minnesota Sweet of Idaho ano
Townsend of Colorado-voteda against
the Speaker: The legislative council
of the National Farmers Alliance
which has been trying to get its hn
gers in the legislative pie witnessed
7 the vote, and left the House yer,
! much disgusted, as they had beer
| made to believe that the free coinage
2 men would gain an easy victory.
It is believed that the attempt t.
attach free coinage to an appropra
ton bill in the senate has been aban
doned. The gentlemen who were en-
gineering the scheme were informe
that if the senate voted to attach sue
; a rider that when the bill went bac
to the House the federal election bi
,, would be put on as an additional rio
u er. That frightened off the souther
I senators. Meanwhile the House coin
{ age committee is giving hearings o

House. If it isn't reported this wee

The atlanta Constitution speaks
plainly enough when it uses the
following language: ''The nominee
of the Democratic party must be
Democrat in the full sense of the
word. He must favor free coinage
as we'll as tariff reform, and must
signify his willingness to turn the
rascals out " 1t must be borne in
mind that this is the voice of the en-
tire Southern wing of the democracy,
and consequently the sentiment is
backed by 153 electoral votes.

Kill The Free Coinage Bill.

In view of the disclosures in the
silver pool investigation, if for no
other reason, the national House
should kill the free silver coinage bill.
1t comes down from the Senate dis
counted by suspected and proven dis
honesty in some of its advocates,and
finds in the House the support of
men who would personally profit by
its passage. For this reason as well
as others it is the duty of the major
ity to defeat it. The measure is op-
posed by the best fnanciers every
where and is the outgrOwth Of tenn
porary craze. 1t has no excuse for
being. Its passage would be in the
interest of the few against that of
the many. The friends of honest
money in the House should crush this
attempt at imitation whether it come
in the form of Senate bill or an
amendment to some important House
bill. The House should weigh the
words of such fnanciers as Window
Sherman and Walker and review the
history of imitation. Already meas
ure of Justice has been sacrificed tt
forward this unsound proposition
How much more is to be sacrificed tC
to it? If the House of Representa-
tives does it's duty, nothing. Let tn
free coinage receive the support Of
the silver kings of the West and sue
callow organizations as the Farmers
Alliance, but let earnest and think
ing men beware of it.-Ielegraph.
