so is iron manufacturing, yet they
clamor constantly for more protec-
ton.
AZ. Protection forbids us accept
ing foreign articles, even though
they be far superior to ours and we
can get them for nothing.
43. Estimated that the head of
one in every ten families in Ohio is
a wool-grower, nine families are in
jured while one is benefited by a
tariff on wool.
A. Free raw material benefits
both the manufacturer and the con-
sumer, because the manufacturer
can then manufacture cheaper, and
because any tariff on wool must f.
nally be taken from the pocket of
the consumer.
As. The tariff on sugar was re-
duced 2 per cent. and the price Of
sugar was lowered 2 cents.
46. The average price of tin in
1888 and for five years previous was
S445 per box. The average price
in 1891 was $5.68.
AZ. There were more failures in
business in 1891, the first year of
the Mckinley tariff, than in any
other year in the history Of our
country. (Statistics taken from
Bradstreet.)
As. Ex-Governor Campbell, of
Ohio, has been on an unsuccessful
search for man who has had his
wages raised since the passage Of
the Mckinley bill. He did not
have to search far to find plenty Of
men who had their wages cut and
were paying more money for actual
living expenses.

leaden feet" No merely selfish pol
icy can in the long run prosper.

richer and the poor poorer.

Campaign Sheets.

The st. Louis Chronicle, which
has built up a circulation Of over
200in jackson through some un-
explained reason, as it is utterly
worthless and unreliable as a news
paper, contained the following edi-
torial paragraph in its issue of last
Friday:
ga colored newspaper man in
Memphis told the truth regarding
the treatment of his race in the
South. 1t became necessary for
him to leave the city, as that is a
subject on which local sentiment is
against the truth"
And here is the truth" this ne
gro told, and for which he was COM
PEELED to leave the city;
Nobody in this section Of the
country believes the old thread
bare lie that negro men rape white
women. If Southern white men
are not careful they will overreach
themselves and public sentiment
will have a reaction; and conclu-
sion will be reached which will be
very damaging to the moral repu-
tation of their women
Any comment on the utterance
of the Chronicle is unnecessary.
1t now remains to be seen whether
there is white man in Jackson
who will longer patronize a journ-
al which endorses such infamous
insinuations. We do not believe
there is one SO entirely lost to de-
cency and self-respect. Enough
said.

Dayton Times.l
Some of Tennessee's greatest
statesmen have crossed into the
great beyond in the past decade.
If one were to speak of the dead
since the war, it would take this is
sue Of The Times to sketch them.
Tennessee has produced more Pres
idents, Senators, Cabinet members
and high Government officials than
any other Southern State. Her
statesmen will compare favorably
with the greatest the world ever
produced. Her orators will never
be eclipsed as long as time lasts.
Tomention thenamesof jackson,
Polk, Grundy, John Bell, Harris,
Brownlow, Aaron Brown, Andrew
johnson, James G. Jones, Hopkins
Turney, Loudon G. Haynes and
their confreres is to bring a flush
of pride to the cheek of true Ten
nesseans, and memory Of the age Of
glory. For among the younger
generation the statesmen who have
come up since the war, there is none
to compare with the great men OF
the earlier regime.
OF the United States Senator'S
James E. Bailey and w. G. Whit

an important interview with Judge

ton if he would support Governor

FIFTY SHOTS AT PROTECTION.
INDUSTRY NEEDS NO PROTECTION.
A. Few Reasons why we Don't Want Any
Protection in Ours.
Rngene v. Brewster in New York word.l

demonstrate that the theory of pro-
lection is based on false economical
principles and that it abounds with
fallaeies.
In order to present the subject in
as brief and simple a form as pos
sible [ make the following state
ments, and [ think | am prepared
to elucidate each and every one.
Protectionists, here are about fifty
shots at your protection target; if
they have all struck where [ aimed
them, you must admit that your
target is so riddled with bullets that
there can not be much left of it.
l. Trade enriches nations.
2. Any obstruction to trade (such
as protective tarif) injuriously
affects the prosperity and industry
Of country.
3. Any obstruction to trade COM
pels the people to work nearly twice
as long, hard or rapidly as they
would need to if they had free ex-
change.
4 A sound and healthy industry
needs no protection.
5. A nation obtains more by ex-
changing than by producing, and
each nation exchanging works for
the other at a more profitable rate
than it could work directly for it.
self.
6. Flooding our market is in
creasing our trade, and if trade did
not benefit both sides there would
be no trade, for every fair exchange
has two profits, one for. each side
exchanging.
Z. Protection not only causes
higher prices Of the goods protect.
ed but Of other commodities.
s. Some Of the most profitable
industries in this country have nev'
er been assisted by protection.
8. The rightto freely exchange il
sGod-given right of all men, which
protection destroys. Iti the chris
tan side Of the argument.
10. Protection is an expensive
way of building up an industry.
IL. Some of our protected indus
tries are no better off to-day THAI
they. were fifty years ago, after w
have paid millions of dollars fo
their support.
l2. AS Daniel Webster said il
1920, "We can not afford to do will
our intelligent labor what foreigl
pauper labor will do for us"
13. Protection forbids us hirin;
the cheap foreign labor.
IA. Protection both influence
and forces the industry of a coun
try from its natural channels.
Is. Protection checks people
enterprise and ingenuity.
16. Protection is means for de
ranging industry and thus sudden
" throwing great numbers Of pee
pie out of employment.
II. Protection directs us to wor
in industries which produce art
cles which will not pay profit ur
less raised in price.
Is. Protection encourages wea
and tardy industries which are
waste Of labor, by giving them a
unnatural and inflated growth.
10. Protection diverts capita
from numerous and diversified an
naturallyproductive industries int
fewer and less productive indus
tries.
90 Protection diverts labor
the same way, for labor follows caI
ital, and places the laborer in
more dependentand precarious COZ
dition.

"BENJAMIN HARRISON,
"Hon JAMES G. BLAINE"

An Associated Press dispatch of
that date says: Sofaras can now be
learned the resignation volunteered
by Secretary Blaine to-day has not
been proceeded by any notice or in
timation to the President that it
might be expected. Mr.. Blaine
has seen the President only once
this week, which was during the
half hours attendance at the Cab
met meeting yesterday, when he
made a report concerning his con-
ference with the Canadian commits
sioners, and returned to the State
Department to resume it. The res
ignation appears, therefore, to have
been determined upon very sudden
ly, but for some time there have
been various facts known to close
observers in Washington as sort
Of open secret which warrant be-
lief that the resignation, though
undoubtedly precipitated by occur
rences Of a very recent date, had
its origin long while ago, and in
causes essentially personal, rather
than political.
These causes may be briefly sum-
marizedas incompatibilities of tenn
permanent developed and emphasiz-
ed at times by important disagree
ments over public questions, such
as the management Of the war
threatening difficulty with Chill;
invidious comparisons and COM
ments on the part Of injudicious
friends concerning the credit due
to either for the enactment and ex-
ecution of the reciprocity project,
and the general conduct of the for
eign affairs Of this government, in
cluding the management of the
Behring Sea controversy and the
lack Of cordial relations between
their respective families.

%. Protection discourages pro-

only guaranty Of a full reward, con-
tracts trade and neutralizes the gifts
Of nature. Protection is spoilia-
ton.
"a. A duty on the foreign pro-
duct is a bounty on the home pro-
duct.
25. To draw large numbers from
the smaller industries which they
would naturally pursue, and con-
centrate their labors upon a single
pursuit, would be to degrade the
character of such a population by
making it less ingenious, less enter
prising and less Independent.
26. Protection encourages trusts,
and trusts usually throw laborers
out Of employment, cut wages, and
raise the prices Of goods.
27. Protection imposes taxes
upon our people which never reach
the United States Treasury.
%. Most great writer's admit that
a tariff operates most oppressively
upon the poor.
20. A duty on an article takes
something out Of the pockei of
every man, woman, and child, and
by that much lessons their peace
and. prosperity, and it does this to
make the fortunes Of a compara-
lively small number of capitalists
to enable them to work with waste
ful means and processes.
30. Protection is putting your
hand into another's pocket to pay
somebody else-robbing Peter to
pay Paul.
81. If protection shuts out for
, eign pauper competition, it at the
same time is liable to throw them
out Of employment and cause their
; immigration to this country.
80. Laborers in unprotected in
dustries command better wages than
laborers in protected industries.
80. Capitalists and monopolists
are benefited by protective tar

"a. 1t is fair to state that four
ffths of all the present consump-

A COLORADO senator, speaking for
those who have silver to sell, and
want the government to pay them q
higher price for it than they can OBJ
tain in the open market, pitched in
to the administration the other day,
accusing 1t Of interfering" with
silver Legislation and preventing the
passage Of the Bland bill. Every.
body who reads the papers knows
the president did no such thing. II
anybody Is to have the credit for
producing an abortion In this silver
matter 1t must go to Mr.. Crisp, the
speaker Of the house. This Senator,
smsrtiDg under the lashings Of de.
feat, must needs give vent to his
anguish and resentment, and no one
else being In sight upon whom be
could spend the force Of his spite,
the administration had to take IL.
1t is well it were SO now. This sill
yer bugaboo must be met and put
out of the way before the actual
work Of the campaign begins, and
this manner of conduct by its friends
will do much toward calling the at
tentiop Of the masses to the propos-
ed measure and its adherents. Their
actions will be studied and the real
people who do the voting will event
uslly come to the final conclusion
that they don't want q dollar
that IL not dollar, and will
vote accordingly. The uncom-
promising attitude Of the president
against the silver measure has been
endorsed by every Republican con-
yention Of consequence held this
year. and il will be SO to the end Of
the campaign. 1t is time all this
wash about the free coinage Of silver
were stopped. The idea has been
undergoing . slow process Of dissolu-
ton for the past two years, and 1t lie
high time for 1t to be buried, since
its funeral occurred several days ago
in Washington. The great macs Of
people do not believe that creating .
fat market for silver mine owners
will help them q particle, and the
pushers Of the proposed legislation
may rs well give In.
