PowderIy on the Tariff.


For the past week the G. o. P. organs
of this section and elsewhere have been
parading before their readers an extract
from one of T. V. Powderly's letters, in
which the Democratic party is given a
severe raking up. Part Of it is deserved
and part of it is not, but the editors of
the Republican journals thought they
struck mint and have been dosing the
public with installments daily since its
appearance.
Powderly is Peoples party man.
He was at the convention that nomi-
mated Weaver, and has been an ardent
supporter of the ticket since, notwith-
standing the assertion of the Philadel-
phia Press and others that he pronoun-
ced in favor of Harrison last week.
The general master workman is just
now engaged in paying his respects to
both parties and commenting upon such
political subjects as are under discussion.
In Thursdays issue of the Journal Of tie
knights Of Labor he touches on that all
important question, the tariff. Repub-
lican editors and workingmen who be-
lieve in so-called protection" are re-
spectfully invited to put his opinion of
the tariff, high or low, in their pipes and
smoke it. He says:
We are told that wages have advanced,
but for the life of me | cannot find a
man whose wages have been increased
by the tariff. 1t has nothing to do with
the increase in wages, for in no case can
the proofs be produced to show that
wages have increased except achere the Ia.
Dor organizations had strong footing ana
enforced a demand for an increase Of pay
The italics are his, not ours, and we
are waiting to see how many protection
lists will attempt to disprove that state
ment.
Now if the papers that gave garbled
portions of his other letter want to be
honest with their readers, let them
publish the above declaration, which is
in perfect accord with the national plat
form of the Democratic party.
1t knocks the bottom out of every
protection argument that may be offered.
Tariffs have no more to do with the rise
and fall of wages than they have with
the ebb and flow of the tide, and none
know it better than the men who are
trying to keep workingmen down by
having them vote the Republican ticket
Last week Powderly was receiving
great praise in our Republican ex-
changes. He was referred to as the
"noted labor leader" "the champion of
workingmens rights" and his Saga
city," words of WISDOM" ETC., were
set before their readers with all the
prominence they could be given. That
was when he was pointing out the de-
fects in the Democratic party and the
short comings of its candidate.
Will they still continue to applaud
him, now that he has struck a telling
blow at the pet theory that protection
increases wages?" 1t is not likely they
will. As on former occasions they will
dive into the largest dictionary they can
find and bring forth all the words that
are synonymous of "fraud," "hypo-
crite," agitator," etc.
That is what Powderly or his friends
may expect when he tells the truth
about the tariff

Miners Wages and Increased Coal Rates

Miners Wages and Increased Coal Rates.
One of the principal arguments used
by the apologsts of the Reading com
bine is that the advance in the price of
coal at tidewater will send miners wages
skyward.
Coal is now selling in the cities at from
So cents to $l.10 ton more than it
brought before the deal was made.
Wages have been advanced from 8 to
5 per cent. in the same time, yet there
are editors in this region who try to
make workingmen believe they are re-
ceiving proportionate share of this un-
just and unnecessary advance.
The methods by which they arrive at
these conclusions will not stand the test
of an examination. There is certainly a
screw loose somewhere when it becomes
necessary to tax the consumer $l.00 in
order to give the miner 8 per cent.

The article of d. f. Guinan, publish
ed elsewhere, will be able to show to the
average thinking man where the differ
ence goes, and also a remedy for abolish
ing the monopoly that prevents compe-
tition and allows this difference to exist.

If the Mckinley law is not responsible
for strikes neither is it to be credited
with averting them. Ever since the law
went into operation there have been con-
tinuous strikes in protected industries
And inasmuch as the law is made for
the protection of labor, the people who
are paying the expense of it are quite
right in asking what is wrong with it,

DIR. Lewis, OF Grapevine, Gives the Views
of His People.
DR.. h. A. Lewis, of Grapevine, is one of
the warehouses of Democracy in Tarrant
county. In the executive committee meet
ing Saturday he declared that he had been
at pains to ascertain what his people
wanted and had found that they were
largely against the nominating of county
Candidates. In talking with The GAZETTE
man Or. Lewis said:
''There is an element there that want
neither Clark or Hogg; there is an element
there who would take Clark in preference
to Hogg. lp,my opinion neither Clark nor
Hogg will sbe nominated. The convention
will simply turn both loose-no dark horse
in thai Convention. Personally have not
decided for whom am in favor-will wait
updIFhe canvass goes little further If
tie Oars are let down and all our friends,
sthe enemy, come in and participate in the
primary the race will be neck -and-neck be-
tween Culberson and Mills in Grapevine.
The people there aresalmost unit against
a county nomination of officers, want free
for-all race-a hurdle race, as it were. The
straight out Democracy viii vote the ticket,
l think. The people say on the railroad
commission that they want to give it
trial, that they favor an elective commits
sion-in other words favor Clark's views
on the matter. 1t is generally believed
that there will be a candidate for the legis-
lature from Grapevine in case there are two
offices to be filed; if there is only one our
people prefer Fort Worth having it. -
