HOW 1T WORKS.
Wooden Goods Protected Far Above the
Amount Paid for Wages.

Wooden Goods Protected Far Above the
Amount Paid for Wages
Uncle Sam. following McKinley's adj
vice. is endeavoring to have wooden
shirts manufactured in the United
States We speak of wooden shirts here
for short. and intend To include all kinds
of wooden goods.
The census statistics recently pub
lished show that the yalue of all wooden
goods manufactured in America last
year amounted TO $)3S, 23l 100 That
was the factory value, or The amount of
money which the factory received for
the goods. Such wooden shirts as were
imported from abroad during the year
paid under the Mckinley law duty of
about 100 per cent. That duty was sUp-
posed 20 be levied SO as To compensate
the American manufacturer for the diff
ference between the cost of labor in
America and Europe. Turning, how
ever, to our census statistics. prepared
under Republican supervision, We find
that the total amount of wages paid in
the manufacture of wooden shirts Is only
22l ; per cent. of the value Of the goods
manufactured.
The situation. then, is this. The Amer
lean manufactures of wooden shirts
pays out 22l cents for labor in the man
ufacture of garment which he places
upon the market for one dollar. and he
is protected from foreign competition
by tariff FIVE times as large a. the total
cost of the labor. He pretends that the
tariff is only as large as the difference
between the cost of labor here and
abroad, but the statistics show that the
tariff is, as stated, almost five times great
er than the total cost Of his labor. The
following table shows from the census
statistics juss what the cost of manu-
featuring wooden goods was in this
country last year:
Cost OF material OOlS per Centl..... S9lB, laj6ls
Amount paid FOR wages (s2is per
cent?. OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES. 20 1881
Miscellaneous expenses 6l5 per
cent OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES. lb.jf' III
lolai., ....,.-................s2 W, vi, ID
fronts tllR per cent.l................ 3s,slsSH
When the cost of labor amounts to-
only one-fiftt of the total cost of manu-
facture il is evident that protection of
100 per cent. is not so greatly needed ON
account of high wages in An erica as
manufacturers pretend. If tho cost Of
labor in the manufacture of WOODEN
goods amounted To half or three
fourths of the total cost of manufacture
there might be some basis for the claim
for high protection.-Omaha World

THE peoples party in Georgia, which
Weaver and others claimed would carry
the State, having been showed under a
majority of $4,000, seems to be last dis
integrating. The party organ at Allan
ia has suspended and Chairman Irwin,
of the State executive committee, is
sueipg for his salary, while there are
other signs of sadness and discomfort.
As Speaker Crisp says, he can see how
the republicans in Kansas can go to that
party, as it is step in the right direc-
ton, but il is impossible for him to con
ceive how democrat can be led away
from the only party that can give the
relief he desires. For 80 years, owing to
a hostile Senate, kept so of late years by
making States out OF rotten boroughs,
the democrats have not been in condi-
ton to pass a single law, but when Mr..
Cleveland is elected and the Senate be-
comes democratic next March, every
promise will be redeemed and legisa
ton will be enacted for the masses and
not for the classes, as had been ever
since the republicans came into power

whole matter is n simple One," SAID Judge
HaNes. Under the funding act of 1871
the State of Virginia agreed TO hold one
third of her indebtedness in trust and
gave the usual certificates, known as the
| deferred certifcates.' Beyond question,
the duty of the State of Virginia is either
| to execute tho trust or return the bonds
and take up the certificates"
As to the legal rights and obligations
of the several parties and the power of
the certiica6s holders TO enforce their
rights at law. Judge Halves said: "Un-
der the ruling in the case ct Anioni W..
Grcenhow, decided by the Supreme Court
in the year 1855, the Court would seem to
entertain jurisdiction of suit bv a ctz n
against a State, although it has always
been understood that a citizan could not
sue a State. The case of Antoni VS..
Greenhow grew ont of ono of these
Virginia complications. | do not think
there is any occasion TO discuss that phase
Of the case, however, because | am quite
convinced that the State of Virginia will
not fail to take some action in regard TO
this matter. She has had too sorry an
experience in an attempt to settle her
debts in pecemesl, besides there is no &C.
casion for her to pay any money or issue
any new bonds in order to carry out her
full obligation so far as regards the de-
ferred certificates.
"In order to execute her trusts she can
bring, through her proper legal officers, a
friendly action against the State of West
Virginia and have an accounting as to
any indebtedness which may be due from
West Virginia to the mother State, and
that, l understand. the State of West
Virginia has always been ready and will
ing to do. And the certificate holders
are, in turn, perfectly willing to abide by
such an audit ard relieve Virginia from
any obligations, and clearly nothing less
could be done by the State of Virginia
than to enforce such al obligation and IT
the same time relieve herself from any
! liability.
This would result in jnstice to all
parties and absolve her also from any
further claim or complication or her
Legislature could appoint committee Of
conference, and l have no doubt they
would be frankly met by the State of
West Virginia and this accounting could
be had by mutual consent. In any event,
| am perfectly confident that o satisfac-
tory arrangement will be made to protect
all parties in interest, and that Virginia
will not attempt to settle portion OF her
debt and leave the balance wholly unde.
termmed. We are relying upon her good
faith in the matter"
