.SPRINGER'S LITTLE BILL

Mr.. Springer is not having a happy
time with his wool tariff bill. 1t is
evident thas his wish was to doctor
the tariff so as to please the manu-
facturers, but in this he seems to have
made a miserable failure. Mr.. Ste
VEINS, a Massachusetts, wooden manu-
facturer, who is also a member of the
WAYS and Means committee, is disap-
pointed with it, and does not attempt
to conceal his disappointment. He
said that it did not suit, but was the
best that could be done with the com,
mittee. The Chicago Inter-Ocean
Washington correspondent comment
ing upon the bill, says:
AS the bill now stands all specific
duties on wooden goods are repealed
and the ad valorem rates are reduced
in many important particulars. The
| duty on the finer and more expensive
wooden goods is reduced to 20 per CT,
while the duties on the coarser and
| cheaper grades are not reduced at all.
In Italian cloths and light goods the
reduction is greatest on the finer and
more expensive goods. 1t is to be
noted in the rates which have been
agreed upon by this junta, which has
thus far been endeavoring to shape
tariff legislation, that every specific
rate of duty in the wool schedule is re-
pealed, leaving the door wide open to
| invite underyaluationS and frauds up
on the revenue.
Mr.. Springer estimates that the bill
will cause a cut in the revenue OF
about S20,000,000. This reduction he
claims will produce a corresponding
cheapness in the goods on the market
and thereby cause an increased de-
mand upon the part of the people, sc
that the large influx Of foreign goods
as a result Of the low tariff will not
be noticed by our manufacturers
This is purely his beliefin the matter
however, and no proof is offered tC
substantiate it, In the meantime he
would leave the woOl-grOwers without
any protection whatever. Under this
bill the Australian will have Oper
access to our markets and will receive
all the benefits that can be conferred
by them, without the payment of {
cent of tax Possibly our farmers viii
relish such treatment as this, anC
possibly they will not, but it is fai
sample of the treatment they may eX
pect at the hands Of their Democratic
free traders.
Those who are predicting that thu
bill will become law, because Their
are Republican Senators who will no
dare to vote against it, and that Pres
ident Harrison will not dare veto i
in the face Of the coming campaign
little know the temper Of the Repub
licans on the question Of protection
, 1t is a measure that can never becOm
law while the present administra
tion is at the helm, but it serves wei
to show what might be expected cOul'
Democracy secure complete control o
the government.

II is now announced that the Louis
lana lottery will go to Mexico in 1893,
instead of going out of business as has
been announced. Undoubtedly the
managers think they will thus be able
to evade our postal laws in regard to
lottery matter, but in this they may
be mistaken. The people have won a
signal victory, and no company will
attempt to succeed the Louisiana
octupus, but it will not do to become
negligent in the matter of enforcing
the law, as the managers of the con-
Germ, though they will change their
headquarters to Mexico, undoubtedly
intend to depend upon this country
for their income,

THE FREE SILVERITES CLAIM.

In the majority report of the House
Committee on Coinage, Weights and
Measures, the free silver men declare
that the free coinage of silver will
not depreciate our currency. Refer
ring to the statement that it would
make this country the dumping
ground of the world for silver, they
state that the foreigner cannot get a
gold dollar out of the national treas
ury, for a silver one, and that should
he convert a ship load of silver into
coin notes, and then present them at
the treasury for redemption, he would
be paid back in dollars coined from
his own silver. Neither, they say,
could he compel a citizen here to part
with his gold dollar for one of silver.
If the foreigner brings ship load
of silver to this country to have coin
ed, he brings it here for the profit
there is in it. He will not come here
to go into business, and he would not
Garry III dIOuuu Will mn IL hS SoAANi'
If the trade balances between nations
are paid in gold, it will not take him
long to convert it into gold, and we
will be so much the worse OFF, for ne
will not convert it into gold unless he
can make profit thereby.
On the other hand if what the free
silverites maintain would prove a
fact, free coinage would become inn
mensely profitable to the mine owners
and spectators, but the masses would
reap little benefit from it. would
simply prove piece Of class legisla
tion in which a few parties would
reap from % per cent. upward on every
dollar coined. If, as they further
assert, free coinage would bt
almost, if not entirely, con
fined to the home product, what adj
vantage will be gained over the pres
ent law, which takes all the product
that is not used in the arts, and is
sues thereon a certificate that is more
convenient to carry, and at the same
time is worth a full 100 cents upoi
the dollar?

SOME United States Senators come
high. Take Senator Hill, for instance,
he has served about.ten days so far dur
ing this year, and if he gets through
with his convention all right may
possibly be able to spare the people
ten days more of his valuable time
before March 4th, but he will draw
his $4,000 just the same, which will
make the time he has devoted to his
duties worth about $3.50 per day.
