THERE is no tin plate made wholly in
the United States. About per cent. OF
the tin used in this country is dipped"
in America, British black plated being
used. The importation of these black
plates in the entire year ending June 80.
1890 before the Mckinley bill went into
operation. was only 2.29s pounds. For
the nine months ending March 81. 1892,
there were 5.41s seq pounds of these
plates imported, and the treasury DEPART
ment reported q manufacture OF 24O.-
$50 pounds of American tin plate dur
ing this time, showing that there is still
q stock of black plate on hand waiting
to be timed of 177.722 pounds. The
duty on black plate is 81 65 per 100
pounds. while on tin plate it is 81 20
per 100 pounds, thus sffording a fine
chance for large profits at the expense of
the consumer, since tin plate dipping is
scarcely more complicated than taking
dive off the wharf-boat into the
river. It is 80 easy that Mckinley pei
formed the operation on every stump in
Ohio when he ran for governor. The
annual consumption of tin and terne
plates in the United States is about $780,
600. OOO pounds. and the tax paid on it
either to the government or to clippers
of British black plate, is about SIS OOO,-

The Motive.

Republicans are in the habit of assert
ing that the Democrats in trying to
bring about reduction of the tariff to
a revenue basis are aiming to destroy
the business of the country. Their fail
IRE to find I, motive for this alleged de-
sire to destroy the prosperity of the
country makes this accusation redicul-
Gus. Democrats have as great an in
terest in the prosperity of this country
as the Republicans. Their interest is
even greater for there are more of them
and that they would deliberat ely at
tempt the destruction of their own pro-
perty, or would advocate policy calcu-
lated to injure their own business seems
such an absurd suggestion as to require
no answer. On the other hand the in
terested motives of Republican leaders
are plainly discernible. The party is
under the absolute control of the pro-
tected manufacturers and self interest is
at the bottom of all tariff legislation.
The difference between the two parties
is this. The Republicans want a high
protective tariff in the interest of GER
tain class that controls the party organ
ization and party policy, while the
Democrats want a revenue tariff in the
interest of the whole mass of the people.

The Tariff or 1916.
Quincy Herald.

quincy Herald
A Herald reader in Quincy makes
inquiry regarding the tariff OF
1916. This was "low tariff. "
and introduced a prosperous period The
doctrine of moderate protection for in
FAINT industries was recognized, with the
understanding that the fostering hand of
the government should be withheld when
the encouraged manufactures should be
able to stand alone. Robert j. Walker
of Mississippi, who was the democratic
secretary Of the treasury und r
Folks administration. was the
practical author of the sche and
its principles may be SUNNI srized as fol-
lows: First, that no more revenue
should be collected than was requisite for
tie wants of the government, economi-
cslly administered. Second. that no
duty should be imposed above the low est
rate that would bring the greatest reve-
nue. from the articles named. Third. the
luxuries of life shall bear the greatest
proportionste burden. Fourth, the nee
esesries shall be made ss nearly free as
possible. Fifth. imports shall be nom
discrimIp ating as to territory. and should
bear on no section at the advantage of
another. Upon these principles
the tariff of 1S46 was constructed
and it developed In an era of in
Yention and progress. The idea was
eminently fair to ali men. but even that
schedule was found unnecessarily high
and the revision of 1857 made some
changes. Topped off some Of the benefits
securing to ''infsnt" industries-then 10
years old, and scaled the tariff down to a
general average of 10 per cent This
was satisfactory to both parties. Then
came war and the war tariff-not only
80 years after necessity called
it into being. but increased steadily and
until it is q mass of discrimina-
ton and Q monument Of shame in q land
where men are given to boast equality.

Nail Them,

falsehoods that ever appeared in a news
paper appeared in The Star of the West
Of last week, when it says that John P.
Altgeld, Democratic candidate for gov

certificates and everything except gold
coin in payment of rent for offices in his
buildings in Chicago. Clns E. Wy.
man, formerly of this city and an ar
dent Republican, who now occupies
rooms in Judge Altgeld's building in
Chicago, was here this week, and upon
being asked in regard to this matter
stated that he always paid his rent by
check and that they had never been re-
