Shortly after & o'clock on the evening
of the 18th inst. some railroad men
heard shot and woman's scram pro-
ceeding from the home of Mary Comley,
q maiden of 30 years who lives
alone in a large house about twenty
rods south of the depot at Niles. The
men FASTENED to the spot and found the
woman's dead body in the cellarway,
where she had been carried from the
kitchen, the condition of her dress indi-
eating that she had been dragged across
the floor After having shot her the
assailant cut her windpipe and pounded
her terribly, most likely with the butt
end of the revolver. The spot on which
the body rested was covered with
pools of blood. The scene was an
awful one. The murder is thought to
have been prompted by revenge and
that George Taylor is the. murderer. On
Dec. / he was released from prison at

The Tariff Issue.

In any intelligent and fair dis
cuSSion Of the Tariff question, and
in any reasonable proposition to
change the schedules. it will be
borne in mind that the primary
purpose of these imposts is to raise
revenue. The Government Of the
United States requires from four to
five hundred millions of dollars a
year to meet its expenditures and
obligations, and no change can be
made in our revenue laws without
due consideration as to its effect on
our income as well as on our bust
ness. Protectionjsts hold that while
the tariff must be so framed as to
produce an adequate revenue, its
schedules should be so arranged as
to tax most heavily those foreign
products which most directly COM
pete with our own like productions,
more moderately those which are
less directly competitive, and leav-
ing free Of duty such productions
as are not raised or made in the
United States. Thus iron and wool
are two Of our chief products, the
manufactures from which are
amongst our most extensive and
important industries. and therefore
these come directly within the pro-
tectiye principle. On the other
hand, tea and coffee are not sue
cessfully grown in the United
States, and therefore properly are
to be placed on the free list. Sugar
and some other important articles
are produced to some extent in the
Cuited States, but our past exper-
fence shows not nearly sufficient
quantities to meet the demands of
our home consumption, and, there
fore, from the Protectionist stand
point. the duties on these should be
much less than on iron and wool.

Farmers Wanted.

Under the above head the Balti-
more Herald of Monday said;
"Several persons writing from
Garrett county recently have given
utterance to the sentiment that
farmers are wanted in that locality
to take up vacant lands and to de-
vclop superintendent agricultural
resources. There is no question
ing that this PARKWAY region is one
of the most attractive and fertile in
the state. CARROTS hillsides and
valleys are overspread with avirgin
and fruitful soil waiting for the
pillow and hoe.
"In many cases the land would
have to be reclaimed from the for
est, but in the opinion of those
most conversant with the facts re-
suits would repay the effort. The
general impression seems to be that
the county is too sparsely settled
for its own good, and for the pro-
per development of that portion of
the commonwealth.
Garrett county is rich in min
eral products, in lumber and in ag-
ricultural possibilities. Under or
binary circumstances these invite
population, capital and develop
ment. But just now the tide of
immigration is to the great North
west-right through the region
which would best repay the efforts
of the wood-chopper and husband
man.

Handling the Truth CareIessIy.

To the Editor of THE REPUBLICAN.
The Democrat and its wool pur-
chasing correspondent manifest a
commendable degree Of solicitudc
as to the particular mode or man
ner in which the truth shall be
handlcd-by other people. Judg-
ing from appearances there need be
no apprehensions that the truth
will suffer violence at their hands,
for the truth is the one particular
thing which the average Democratic
luminary has no sort of use for.
Assuming that / said what | did
not say, they agree at length, and
even invoke the testimony of the
Republican manufactures, to dis
prove thing wholly gratuitous and
imaginary.
| never denied that some people
offered to buy wool last year or this
year either at % cents per pound.
Some i'll advised farmers taking the
Democrat for their counselor may
have been foolish enough to sell at
that figure.
As is generally the case just be-
fore the new clip begins to come in
the price started off low.
There is sufficient reason for this:
first, the merchant is cautious, not
knowing what the price is gong to
be, and the manufacturer naturally
wishing to buy as low as possible,
is apt to name a low figure at the
start, so as not to excite the ma.
ket. What | meant to say, and
what | MAINTAIN as a literal truth,
is, that wool sold both last year and
this, right along through the sea
son, after the new clip came in, at
% cents or over, cash, per pound.
The farmers and wool growers
all know this perfectly, and every
body who reads the Democrat knows
that it has been contending that
wool was worth only % cents per
pound, and has been trying to
manufacture cheap political capital
ont of this false assumption
Now it seems to hive reached the
end of It's tether, for it discovers
that in spite of what it has been
saying, wool is, and has been sell

if indeed they do not go on the free

if indeed they do not go on the free
list.
The opponents of protection in
sist that our foreign trade should
be free from all restrictions, save
only what is required by revenue
consideration. They contend that
no discrimination should be made
to favor any business or industry
whatever, that tariff schedules
should be adjusted so as to raise
the required revenue, either by a
tax equally upon all kinds of i'm
pOrtatiOns, or else to tax those ar
ticles which will yield the required
income with the greatest ease and
certainty. 1t is alleged that any
dissemination intended to encourage
or protect any one business, is TAX
ing money from one class, or from
the community at large, for the
benefit of another favored class.
Free traders, therefore, denounce
protection as '1egaized robbery. "
Protectionists answer that protec-
ton is not granted to favored indi-
viduals or classes, but to certain in
dustrial pursuits to secure these
from undue foreign competition.
that these protected industries are
open on the same terms to all citi-
zens of the country, that by reason
of this free competition at home,
capital is invested, our natural re-
sources are developed and utilized,
occupations multiplied, skill is ac-
quired, new processes are invented,
cost Of production is cheapened,
wealth is multiplied, and the whole
community is benefited. 1t is
pointed out that the community is
composed Of individuals, and that
it is impossible to benefit com
munity but by beneftting its midi
viduals; that every tax is taking
of money from some ones pocket,
and every expenditure is a putting
1T into some ones pocket, and
hence to talk Of protective tariff
as legalized robbery smacks more of
anarchism and demagogism than
of craftsmanship. The question at
issue, therefore, is not whether
there shall or shall not be taxes,
nor whether there shall be a high
or low tariff; and he must be either
a fool or knaye who pretends this.
1t being granted that a given in
come is to be obtained by a tariff,
the ques ton is simply this: On
what lines shall the tariff schedule
be adjusted? Shall it be on the
lines of protection or of free trade:
Now, on this question there may
be wide differances of opinion.
And it is with these difference
that parties and the people should
concern themselves. Ignoring in
dividual or local dissent, it is on
this question that the Republican
and Democratic parties divide on
the tariff. Substantially the Re-
publican is a protectionist party,
and its tariffs are always framed on
the lines of protection. Substan-
tally the Democratic is a free
trade party, and its tariffs are al
ways framed on the lines of free
trade, This is a simple matter of
fact written in the history Of the
country, and he who denies this
is not dealing candidly with the
facts of our history.

SHORT TARIFF SERMONS.

TRUSTS.
Trusts are not due to our Protec-
ton.
This is shown by the fact that
the great Mecca Of combinations Of
all kinds is Free-Trade Great Bri-
tain.
They are the product of human
weakness common to all men, in
every country and under every po-
htical system-Cupidity.
Combination is the recognized
commercial tendency of the day.
1t is natural for men to combine
where they see an opportunity for
their own profit; and they will do
this whether there be a Tariff or
not, as all impartial judges, even
Free Traders, will admit.
Protection is no friend to trusts;
in fact, it is essentially opposed to
them. 1t prevents the formation
of international combinations, for
which there could be no destruc-
tive remedy, and guarantees men
who wish to compete with a trust
a fair field and a chance for compe-
tition. BY Protection also, trusts
are placed in reach of our laws;plac-
ed where they can be attacked and
destroyed by the strong arm of the
Government.
Free Trade, on the other hand,
either leads to the establishment of
international combinations. or, by
destroying an industry in this
country and causing us to become
dependent for the product of that
industry on a few foreigners, puts
us at the mercy of foreign trust
from which there can be no escape,
and which, of course, no legislation
of ours can reach.
This is entirely in harmony with
the ordinary Free-Trade pro-
gramme-to subject us in every
thing to the domination Of the for
eigner
The only effective remedy for
combinations is a radical antitrust
law, such as that already passed by
a Protectionist Congress.
The question of trusts can be
formulated in a few words: Free
Trade and foreign trusts, absolute
ly our masters. Protection, every
difficulty in the way of forming
trusts, new competition to nullify
their influence, and prohibitory
legislation to destroy them when
formed.

signed by George Washington,
President of the United States
on July 5, 1889. There had been
no party division on the discussion
Of this measure. Men of all shades
of political opinion were Of one
mind in its support, for all believe
ed that after sixteen years of polit-
ical independence it was about time
to free our country from the DOM
ination Of Great Britain in COM
merce. The law opened with the
following suggestive words:
Whereas, it is necessary for the
support Of the Government, the
discharge of the debts of the Unit
cd States, and the encouragement
and protection Of manufactures
that duties be laid on goods, wares
and merchandise imported, there
fore, etc.
This Tariff law, which, as can be
seen from its preamble, was enact
ed as an ayowedly PROTECTIVE meas
urc, laid the foundations Of Amer
lean industrial greatness and SUI
premacy and viii inspire Ameri-
can Protectionists for generations
to come with confidence in the wis
dom and patriotism of the policy
that received the sanction Of our
fathers, the men who won our
country's freedom. And ever
since that the greatest Americans
have all been Protectionists. From
Washington and jefferson and
Hamilton and Madison, through
jackson and Adams and Webster
and Clay, to Randall and Blaine
and Mckinley and Harrison and
the other great Protectionists of
the present day, we have list of
men of which the humber advo-
cate of our national policy may
well be proud, men whose example
should convert every Free-Trader
and reanimate the faith of anv
faltering Protectionist. Such be-
ing our history and the doctrines
of our fathers, shall we now, after
century has passed, discard the ex-
ample of the revolutionary patriots,
the teachings of our greatest states
men, the dictates Of prudence, pa
triotism and experience, and sub
stitute for the American policy UNI
der which our greatness has been
achieved, the British system of
radical Free-Trade? Shall we this
103d year of our industrial indie
pendence again declare ourselves a
commercial dependency of Great
Britain? That is the great the
over-shadowing question that con-
fronts the American people in the
coming election. We have tried
both policies. Protection has Civ
en- us prosperity and high wages,
Free Trade has ever been attended
with adversely and hard times.
Let us apply to this industrial
problem the simple teaching of the
Book of books-"By their fruits
We shall know them.

A British View of the American Tariff

a British View ofthe American Tariff.
The promoters Of the Mckinley
tariff meant it to push forward the
policy Of America for the Ameri-
cans. One method of realizing it
was to keep all work within their
own dominions. The country was
to be made self-supplying: what
could be produced at home was not
to be bought abroad. That was
the keynote Of the Mckinley
scheme, and it is working out the
idea of its designers with the preci-
sion and effectiveness of a machine.
