FREE WOOL AND PROTECTED
WOODEN GOODS.

Congressman Springer proposes 70 take
the tax OFF wool. whose production today
gives employment TO ever 900 farmers
and their labor, and retain it upon the
product of the manufacturer. The follow
Ing census statistics, compiled by the
Philadelphia Press, illustrate the utter
absurdity of Mr.. Springer's bill 70
throw 10000 sheep farmer workers
on. of employment in order to help
the wooden goods manufacturer "whose
business is hampered by the duties on raw
materials" In 1850 the value OF the manu-
features Of wool in this country was 49,
207, 545. In 1850 il had increased 10 $751;
Sos. 364. In 1870 it was s177. AZ, $50; in 1885,
s267, 252, 9i3. and in 1880 about $3.50 000, 900.
In 1860. under a revenue tariff, this coun-
Try produced 65 per cent. Of its consump-
ton of wooden manufactures, and i'm
ported 81 per cent. In Is90 1t produced s.
per cent, and imported only L per cent.
In 1850 the value per capita OF domestic
wooden manufactures was s209. and in
1850. $500 In 1850 the value per capita Of
cotton manufactures was s36s, while that
With free raw material all the time the
Per capita value of cotton manufactures
has risen to about 1915, while with a
heavy duty upon wool the value per capita
Of wooden manufactures has risen TO S5.6D."
These figures fully vindicate the policy
Of protective duties and dispose of Mr.
sprngers pretense that the manufacture
IS T., l--
on the raw material. Since the Mckinley
tariff took effect there has been an enor-
nous increase in the wooden manufactures
in this country. The consumption of wool
with free raw materials" in Great Britain
has increased but q per cent. in eighteen
years. while in the United States the in
creased consumption in the same period
mas been 63.71 per cent. Does any wool
growing Democrat in Eastern Washington
or Oregon favor Brother Springers propo-
fition for free wool and protected wooden
goods? This was the Mills tariff PROPOSE
ton of 1883 and Oregon voted that down
by some 1000 majority.
The Democracy can never carry the
great West upon any such proposition as
that Of Springer. Tom Reed was right
when he said that the Mckinley tariff
would win because it was fair to both East
and West; 1t gave the Eastern manufac-
turer protection for his goods and the
Western man protection for his product
Give the West the Springer tariff and it
would hasten to brain the Eastern manu-
facturer with the club of absolute free
trade.

OHIO FOR BLAINE.

The Cincinnati correspondent Of the Al
bany EUening Journal quotes Senator Sher-
man as saying that President Harrison
can hardly carry Ohio this year Among
other things this correspondent says:
There is but one vein OF thought which
seems to pervade the nina of every Re-
publican, and that is: viii Blaine accept
the nomination. The sentiment is over
whelming IN favor of the Plumed knight,
and no politician here dare stand against
IL. Mayor Mosby. of this city, who
has just returned from Washington
City, where he met Mr.. Blaine at
the dinner at the house of John
4. Mclean, announces that he is
for Blaine and that he assuredly believes
that he will accept the nomination if it
seems to be the well nigh unanimous wish
of the party that he should do so. Mr..
Blaine is the choice of the Republican
party for president, and if Ohio is cri-
terion of the whole country, doubtless will
receive a nomination by reclamation at
Minneapolis. With Mr.. Blaine in the
race, Senators Allison and Cullom,
with Ex-Governor Russell A. Alger,
disappear from view, although either
one of them would make
good candidate for the second place on the
ticket. They are ali strong in their =e-
spective states-General Alger especially
SO. Owing to the new method of choosing
electors, Michigan has become pivotal
state, and it is necessary for the Republi-
cans to carry each electoral district in that
state in order to win without New York
and Indiana
