A FRAUD AND HUMBUG.

The only excuse for high tariff as up
held By the protectionists is that it serves
to increase the wages of the workingmen.
This is pretense and is false.
Protection has not made wages high in
this country. il it had done SO here it
would have produced the same result in
other countries-in Canada, for instance.
Germany, France, Russia. Spain and Italy
have high protective tariffs and England
has free trade, yet in England wages are
higher than in any of the other nations.
The laborers of Mexico. where the poems
work for nearly nothing, and board them
selves On starvation victuals, livein coun-
try where a high protective tariff has al
ways prevailed. Except in the United
States and Australia the rule of nations is,
the higher the tariff the lower the wages,
1t is not the tariff, then, that affects
wages to make them high, or there would
exist some uniformity throughout the
states, which is not the case, workiugmen's
pay varying as one goes east, west, north
or south from the centre of the land.
Wages have not gone up with the tariff.
out on the contrary, trusts and combines
being the handmaidens of protection, the
files of the newspapers are full of accounts
of strikes and disturbances the result of
reductions.
Protection by high tariff actually reduces
wages, and such is the history of the coun-
try for half century or more. Not only
that, but 1t increases the price of things
that must be bought by the workingman.
A revenue tariff would bring down the
price of comforts and necessaries, and SO
make wages go further in the purchasing
quality.
Protection, as the ally of labor, is fraud
and humbug.

THE Gazette, published way off at Alex
andria, Va, sizes up the Utah commission
correctly, from reading the boards late re-
port. The paper says:
The Republican Utah commission reports
that the Democratic territory should not yeT
be admitted to statehood, for the reason that
III has reports of fifteen male persons who are
believed to have entered into polygamous mar
riages during the past year, and of more than
three hundred persons who are known or be-
lieved TO be now living in polygamous rela-
tons" AS the well-paid commission will ex-
pire when Utah shall become state, its reason
for such belief is plain. But even supposDg
the belief be true, are not the cases of polyga-
nous marriages and polygamous relations in
fnitely more numerous in every state in the
Union than in Utah?

HOME RULE FOR UTAH.
Territorial Policy OF the National Democratic
Party

From the Chicago Platform. June ls-~
we solemnly declare that the need Of q re-
turn to these fundamental principles OF free
popular government, based on home rnle and
individual liberty. was never more urgent than
now. The tendency to centralize all power at
the federal capital has become menace to
the reserved rights Of the states
We approve the action OF the present House
of Representatives in passing bills for the ad-
mission into the Union, as states. OF the terri
tories OF New Mexico and Arizona, and favor
the early admission of all territories having the
necessary population and resources 10 entitle
them to statehood; and, while they remain
territories, we hold that the officials sp-
pointed &c administer the government Of any
territory, together with the Districts of Column
bia ana Alaska. should be bona -fide residents
OF the territory OF district in which their duties
are 10 be performed. The Democratic party
believes in home rule and the control OF their
own affairs by the people OF each vicinage.

Newspapers In Germany.

DIR. Bamberger contributes a most
interesting article in the shape of a
paper on the German Press. Its foible,
he says, is omniscience, especially in
all that relates to foreign countries.
Greater stores of historical and geo.
graphical knowledge lie hidden in Ger
man editorial crania than are to be
found in England and France togeth-
er. So greatly is DIR. Bamberger i'm
pressed with this inborn facility for
apprehendIng the conditions and pc
culiarities of other nations that he
is almost disposed to see in it a provi-
dental call TO Germany to re-establish
a new Holy Roman Empire over all
tho world. The Reptile fund, he says,
amounts to S250,00 a year, but Rep
tile fund Notwithstanding, German
journalists, even of the financial genus,
are less corrupt than their brethren
elsewhere.
Journalism in Germany, however,
labours under many drawbacks. First,
there is the excessive localism, due TO
the law of regional limits; secondly,
the thirst for liquid rooted in the Ger
man organism contends with the thirst
for information, and his coppers 90 in
beer, not in papers; thirdly, there is
the severity of the law against the
Press.

SALTON'S INLAND SEA.
AREA MUCH GREATER THAN WHEN
DISCOVERED.

YUMA, a. IA party of eI-
plorers has just returned from
The Salton Sea district and it is
evident from their report that the
ne v inland sea is here to stay. When
the water first came into the old dry
bed it was said by scientists that it was
only Temporary affair which came
periodically and which would go away
as soon as the sun had full play upon
the water For some weeks there was
no perceptible increase of the water
aud then it began to recede, and the
scientists in question felt proud of
their predictions and saw them veri-
fec.
The report of the men who have just
returned, however, takes from the
glory of those who thought they knew
all about it. The report says that the
sea is not only still there, but it Is in
creasing. The water Is gradually rls-
ing and, notwithstanding the constant
evaporation which is going on, the sea
now has an area of many miles greater
than it had when 1t was first formed.
The water is stea1ily advancing, and it
will not be long at the present rate be-
fore the whole surface of the old bed
will be covered many feet deep by
the salt water.
There is undoubtedly some under
ground connection with the ocean, for
the water is coming in much faster than
the small stream connecting it with
New River and the Colorado would
warrant The water Is intensely salt
and has that peculiar acrid taste OF the
sea water. The party which has Just
returned made a trip clear around the
sea and saw no place where there was
any indication that the water was from
the rivers, except at the place where
the break was first made.
They think they discovered place
where the ocean water came through
the earth, as there was now constant
boiling of the water in the sea. 1t is
now believed that this country will be
redeemed by the formation of the sea,
and it will be of vast benefit to the
mining industry of the country.
