The locating of the state fish hatchery in the

the season. K. K. Parker is in town from that
locality, and informs us that the fish are SO

How Clay Gave 1t Away.

Whopa tariff taxes? The foreigner
of course, shouts the entire tribe of
!lcKinlcyitcs But Henry Clay, whom
the McXinleyitcs often call the 'fathe,
of protection" held II different view
In his great speech, delivered in the
United States senate February 9, and
0, 1882, he clearly and EXPLICITLY ad.
mittcd that the American consumer
pays the tariff tax on imported com
moditics
Some one had said in the senate de,
bate that the tariff on imported goods
was really u tax on the American
farmers who produced the cotton and
other things sent abroad to pay for
those goods. In illustration of this
view the case was assumed of q South
Carolina planter who exports one hun.
dred bales Of cotton, exchanges them
for u hundred bales Of merchandise,
and when he brings them home the
government would take forty Of them
from him,
Clay's answer to this was practically
to give away his whole case. After
nibbling around the argument and
making n few utterly futile answers,
he gave what he called the true answer.
Here arc his exact words; "The true
answer Is, that the exporter OF an ar.
ticlc, II he invests his proceeds in n
foreign market takes care to make the
investment In such merchandise uS,
when brought home, he can sell with II
fair profits and, consequently, the con-
sumcr would pay tho original cost and
charges and profit"
