persistency with which the eold-bugs ar

their theories they might be- excused for
pressing those theories upon public atten-

A Few Questions.

"A Few RueSt1OnS.
We are still closely scanning the
protection papers in hopes of OBJ
tanning some information on the
perplexing questions, eff the impo-
sition of a tariff does not increase
prices, how is it that the removal of
the tariff on sugar is going to re-
duce prices?' and eff the consum-
er does not pay the tariff, how does
the consumer gain by the removal
of the tariff on sugar ?"
If the removal of the tariff on SUI
gar reduces the cost to the consum-
er, does not the imposition or
increase of tariff on other articles
increase their cost? If not, why
not?
If the removal of the tariff on
sugar renders it so much cheaper,
did not the tariff before it was re-
moved make it dearer If not,
why not!
If the tariff on sugar did make it
cost more, was not that tariff tax,
and was not it paid by the consum-
ers Of sugar +?
If the tariff on sugar was tax,
why is not the tariff on other arti-
Giles tax?
If the Mckinley bill, by removing
the tariff on sugar, has done so
much for the people, did it not by
increasing the tariff on almost
everything else that the people use
do great injury to the people ?
If it is a glorious thing for the
people to have sugar free, would it
not be a still more glorious thing
for the people to have all the neces-
saries of life free?
We shall be glad to have some
protectionist answer these ques-
TONS The Beacon.
By the way, if taking the tariff
off Of sugar, then taxing the people
to pay the sugar producer bounty,
is a good thing for the poor people
who use sugar, then would it not be
a glorious thing to take the tariff
off of wool and then tax the people
to pay the sheep raiser bounty ?
You see poor people also use wool.
Would like for some free sugar
protectionist to stand up in meeting
and explain.

That Government Circular.

That Government Circular.
Christian friends, please read the
following circular, which you will
see was issued at the department of
the secretary Of what we call a
christian government.
DEPARTMENT OF STATE,
WASHINGTON, DECEMBER Is, 1889
To the Consular Officers of the
United States in Mexico, Central
and South America and the West
Indies.
GENTLEMEN Some of the lead
ing masters and brewers of the
United States have requested the
department to procure information
relative to the malt and beer trade
in your respective districts.
The information desired covers
such points as follows:
|. The imports of malt and
whence imported: duties charged
thereon; cost of same per bushel;
whether imported or locally pre-
pared, etc.
2. The imports of beer, and
whence imported; in bottles or in
wood, and the duties charged there
on; kinds of beer most suited for
local consumption; details concern
ing prices, wholesale and retail, of
foreign or domestic beer, etc.
3. How imported malt and beer
are placed on the market.
The motive of this circular being
the enlargement of American trade,
you will not confne yourselves to
the above Investigations, which are
to large degree suggestive only,
but will give as much information
as possible concerning every phase
of the malt beer business, so that
the masters and brewers of the
United States may fully understand
the requirements necessary to sue
cessful trade in each district.
All foreign weights, measures,
and money should be stated in
American equivalents.
l am, gentlemen, your obedient
servant,
WILLIAM F. WHARTON,
Assistant Secretary.
Now you have seen from the
reading of the circular, that it was
issued by the assistant secretary of
the government of the United
States. Also you have seen that it
was uot issued on the request of the
christian people of this christian
government-tha it was not issued
at the request of the pale-faced,
broken-hearted wives and mothers
of this government. You have also
seen that it was not issued at the
request of the toiling, laboring
masses of this christian government;
