If the Republican party-that is, the
protected manufacturers-real want
to legislate to protect American work
men against the pauper labor of Europe,
it will ask its president to continue in
definitely the twenty days quarantine
now placed on passengers from Europe.
The immigrants have nothing to sell
when they land here but labor, and the
continual stream of this commodity
pouring into this country tends to keep
wages down to the European level, just
as certain as several connected bodies
of water will tend to a common level

for one body of water to become and re-
main higher than the others. Stop i'm
migration and it is possible for wages
piece wages-to become and remain
higher here than in Europe. There is
some doubt, however, if this is the in
tention Of the manufacturers. The last
thing they would think Of doing would
be to put up barriers between their mills
and the cheap labor Of Europe. If
European labor is cheaper than Amer
lean they want cree access to it, and
they have it and use it to displace Amer
lean labor. Don't stop immigration, y

here and work for all immigrants. y

is that they are not upholstered.

Like many of its pictures this indicates
the evils rather than the benefits of 'tpro-
lection" Canada, like the low wage
countries of Europe, has protection. y
Its duties may not average as high as
ours, but because it has small popula-
ton and limited variety of products,
the pinch of protection" is much more
severe than in our vast countryside
greatest free trade country on the globe,
because the productions of the tropical
south can be exchanged freely for those
Of the north and there is no custom
house from Maine to California.
If Texas had remained outside of the
United States it would now be un-Amer-
lean to propose free trade with her pau
per labor products. If Canada should
be annexed the Mckinley wall would
come down, trade would certainly be
advantageous to all and wages would
climb few points higher. But it is
wicked to think or talk OF such things.

TARIFF ON GOAT HAIR
THE ABSURDITY AND INJUSTICE OF

shrewd scheme.
Judge GRAY. of the United States su-
preme court. has lust sustained the action
of Collector Beard. of Boston in classify
ing common roat hair with second class
wool. and making it dutiable therefore
at twelve cents per pound.
In commenting on this decision The
American Wool and Cotton Reporter.
edited by a moderate urotectionist. saws
in its issue of Sent. 22:
"Of course the court did not consider
whether this duty of 500 to 500 per cent.
upon the pauper goat hair of Bombay or
Russia is absurd or the reverse. The
court simply decided that under the
phraseology of the Mckinley bill all
goat hair comes within the provisions of
class Q of the wool schedule. and is
therefore dutiable Mt twelve cents ner
pound. Under the tariff law which was
in force previous to the passage of the
Mckinley act this goat hair was free of
dutv.
"As the law reads. the hair of n primi.
tive Russian or Bombay goat. worth two
cents ner nound. il artioble Mt twelve
cents ner nound. while the wool of y
primitive sheep at SO per cent. ad valorem
MIGHT get in at three cents ne, ,,ound or

.The supreme court has decided upon
the exact reading of the law. and it has
reached a decision that must be con-
coded as correct by every person who in.

Salesman-The duties are complicated

ing to pay this duty? Itwonld be better
to burn your goods rather than to pay
this merchant $4,000 to take them.
Proprietor-Yes, yes; know. But
we dare not do or say anything against
American protection just now. If we did
the Americans would be told that British
gold was being used to compel them to
adopt free trace, and that would only
convince the foolish voters there that
they were benefited by protection and
make them cling to it all the longer
Here is my check for $2,905. Give it to

of course that he take goods that will
