Zinc ores are at too law price to
pay for mining. Messrs. Harvey and
Nathan stopped their work some time
ago with large quantity on hand and
limitless quantities "in sight" They
think if Harrison had been elected it
would not have been this way.
The above item first appeared in
The Lancaster Herald, and was re-
published last week in The Dodgeville
Chronicle, another newspaper which
believes that from protective tariff tax
alton all blessings flow. 1t is a note
worthy fact that the prices of dry bone
and lead ore are higher now than
they were four years ago, when Mr.
Harvey, Of the firm of Harvey 4
Nathan, was buying ore, under the
Harrison administration, and trying
to make the miners believe that their
salvation depended upon high tariff
taxation
Iowa County democrat. [volume] (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1877-1938, 1893-10-06

The representatives of protected in
terests, in congress, have ever favored
extravagant appropriations, in order to
necessitate the collection of enormous
revenues, and thus insure high tariff
taxation. They favored the reduction
of the excise taxes upon liquors and
tobaccos, for the same purpose. They
passed the Sherman silver law, rather
than jeopardize the Mckinley tariff
bill And now when the hurtfulness
of currency debasement is plainly
manifest, protectionists under the lead
of Wharton Barker, of Philadelphia,
would join hands with the advocates
of free silver, and fight to the bitter
end In defense of these twin evils
protective tariff and protective silver
laws. But the American people are
taking real lively interest in the two
great questions of finance and tax
alton; and as the discussion pro-
crosses, the issue is being more clearly
drawn between the friends Of sound
money and revenue tariff on the one
side, and the advocates of a debased
silver currency and restrictive tariff
taxation on the other. Those who
have faith in our free institutions
must feel assured that the former will
ultimately win the victory.

The boa d of Worlds fair directors
have decided to admit children to the
fair every day in the week, after Oct.
9, by 1O-cent tickets. Referring to this
fact the Chicago Herald says:
"The directors added to this wise
and generous order a supplemental
one rejecting high credit on their
manhood. They authorized the coun-
Gil Of administration to admit free at
will inmates of orphan asylums, half
orphan asylums, and other institutions
in which children are sheltered or
aided. The reproach is not to lie on
Chicago that it did not help its youth
into the Columbia Exposition"
The rate does not apply to Chicago
children alone, but to all children I'M
der fourteen years of age, regardless
of their place of residence.

The proposed alliance between the
ultra high protectionists and the free
silyerites calls out the following from
The Chicago Tribune, which invaria-
bly, during an off year takes an en-
lightened view of the tariff ques-
ton:
Whether the manufacturers of
Pennsylvania are Republicans or not
the greater number of them no doubt
are-the state is represented by two
Republican senators. For any bar
gain they may make the Republican
party will be held responsible by the
people. An alliance to maintain very
high protective duties and to reduce
the country to the silver standard
would be the most disastrous political
experiment that was ever tried. In
1852 the Wing party found that it had
left Vermont, Massachusetts,, Ken
lucky and Tennessee. If the Repub-
licans were to follow Senator Cam
eron's lead their political st ok in
trade would consist of Pennsylvania,
Colorado, and perhaps Vermont.
1t is better often to let an opponent
assume the offensive. When the Re-
publicans sent the Mckinley bill to
the senate in 1890 the Democratic
senators did not try to obstruct its
passage. They debated it and then
they voted. They said in their speech
es that the bill would be disastrous.
They believed that it would be espec-
ally disastrous to their adversaries.
They were not mistaken as regards the
damage done the Republicans by a
measure which, while it lowered many
duties, placed others ON the free list,
raised some, and Initiated voters who
had angry eyes for the increases only
That party was overwhelmingly de-
feated in 1885,, and again in 1892, and
as a consequence the Democrats are
