of the rogue's march. The rule has been
laid down by Mr. Mckinley, that we
make the foreigner pay into our treasury
the difference between his labor costs
and ours, and Senator Sherman has said
L shall never vote for any tariff except
the republicans, will give us good
security that that is all they want, the
difference between the labor cost in Eu-
rope and in this country,we will accept
that doctrine, but you may take the
tariff and if there is one article any
where in which there is a competition
that they have not laid on tax from one
to thousand times more than the diff
feaence in the labor cost, I will come
back and make a republican speech"
The speaker took up several articles
in succession, showing the labor cost in
the production of them, and
the difference in the cost in
this and other countries and
stated how much they were taxed, to
prove his proposition. The English
labor cost of a ton of steel rails is $11.32;
the American labor cost S11.59. The
American workman got just 81 cents
more, and on the strength of what
Mckinley and Sherman had said the
manufacturer was entitled to 81 cents
protection, but they, got S13.44 to pro-
tect the manufacturer on the 81 cents
he had to pay more in this country.
The affair at Homestead was used to
illustrate the benefits of protection, and
the fact that of the 4 400 workmen at
Homestead only 400 of them were
American citizens, seemed to make
deep impression. Carpets, linseed oil
and castor oil were dealt with by the
speaker to show the fallacy of protec-
ton. He added: "The republican party
has never protected you. When your
| wages were too high, they knew what
