PROTECTION CHAMPIONED BY
VERMONTS GRAND OLD MAN.

Senator Morrill,, the Nestor of the
American Senate, made notable speech
last week, Among other things he said ::
1t might have been wiser to have al
lowed some remarks on the general sub
ject of the tariff, made by me few years
ago, to stand as my completed record
rather than to cucumber it by further
discussion. But some contribution from
me to "the campaign of education may
De due, and, while hope to make it not
so lengthy or ponderOus as to seem the
tired wisdom of the ages" it may
abridge my contributions hereafter to
the literature of the tariff. 1t being a
subject always of National Importance
and paramount to all political parties,
my inclination in earlier days was to
avoid all partisan reflections, and, if un-
able to do so now, it is because the Dem
ocratic party, forgetting the orbit which
was early and long Illuminated by their
most illustrous representatives, has
made it the foremost of party questions,
by denOuncing with tragic vehemence
the American doctrine of protective
tariff, as well as by ringing all their ar
guments against 1t on the same set of
bells with those of free trade.
An American tariff should not be
snapped for British free trade, as the
Democratic party seems anxious to do.
Th party has always had queer tariff
platforms, but has never Hbeen right,
even by mistake, and the new tariff bill
is the worst of all. England has tried
free trade, and her laboriDg men barely
earn living, while our country, under
protection, has prospered and become
rich. England wants us all to be farm
ers in this country and raise small pota-
toes, while she sends her paupers here
and controls our markets and takes the
meat from the table of our laboring men.
Englandiwants us to prosper. England
loves us, but it's the love of the panther
seeking human blood. England adopte l
free trade only when she was obliged to

"Thus it is plainly apparent that the
outcome of Wilson's assault upon indus
try, if it shall succeed, will be that the
wage Garner win be put down and kept
down, unless he can lift himself by his
own unaided efforts. Hitherto the man
ufacturers have borne the brunt of the
battle for protection, and, upon the
whole, the farmers of the country have
given their aid as against the common
enemy. The far ners are now killing
their sheep, and soon the wool interest,
which has held them Loyalty to protec-
ton, will have no existence. When the
manufacturers also stand aside, the
workIngmen will hold the field, without
support and without reserves"

The Montpelier Watchman says: SIN
this section of Vermont, disaster to an
important industry turks in the pro-
posed rate of duty on imported granite.
Scotch granite, even under existing du-
ties, has been close competitor with
the American. The pay of a granite
cutter in Scotland for a week is hardly
greater than the daily wages of his
brother in America. Granite is brought
from Scotland as ballast, and the freight
is merely nominal. 1t probably costs
less to land foreign granite at any of the
leading seaport towns of the United
States, than to freight it from any Of the
inland American quarries. Granite in
the rough is on the free list in the bill
proposed by Chairman Wilson. The ex-
listing duty of forty per cent. on dressed
granite is reduced to twenty per cent.
The bare statement of these simple facts
and considerations is enough to show
that the new tariff bill levels a death
blow to one of the most important
branches of Vermont industry, branch
which, under the fostering care of tariffs
enacted under Republican administra-
tions, is now in mid career of marvel
GUS development"
The Bennington banner. [volume] (Bennington, Vt.) 1858-1894, 1893-12-22

Chairman Wilson has made the ma
iority report to the House on the Tariff
bill. In it he says: "The history of
American industry shows that during no
other period has there been a more
healthy and rapid development of our
manufacturing industry than during the
fifteen years of low tariff from 1916 to
1861. nor more healthy and harmoni.
GUS growth of agriculture and all the
other great industries of the country"
To make this assertion without a single
reliable fact to sustain it, and in The
face of fiat contradiction from all reput-
able historians, requires considerable
nerve. To hold this assumption as the
principal reason for passing the iniqui-
tous Wilson free trade bill will require
still greater nerve and more force than
even these Tariff refOrmers possess. Be
fore the undeniable facts and statistics
of the minority report the theories of
the majority will fall down like a house
of cards. No country in the world can
show such generation of progress as
the United States can under reasOna-
bly, high protective tariff Right here in
Bennington have been object lessons to
refute NJ. Wilson'S assertion: The iron
works at Furance Grove, the nine Gotten
mills at Hinsdillyille-not a trace hardly
of which remain.

THE WORKINGMAN'S CONFLICT,
The monster mass meetings held at
Troy, Elmira, and other places this
week, should be kept up until thousands
of places and millions of people have en-
tered protest to the Wilson tariff bill.
On this subject the New York Press
summarizes some of the reasons why, in
in there words: But there is another
reason, of deep interest to workingmen,
why resistance of the most strenuous
character should be offered TO change of
any kind in the existing tariff rates,
The manufacturers of this country have
their money invested in buildings and in
machinery which cannot be permitted
to remain unused. If the Wilson bill
be passed, manufacturers will at once try
to adjust themselves and their affairs to
the new conditions offered by that revo-
lutionary measure. A man who owns a
mill that cost, with its equipment, half a
million dollars, will charge off the de-
probation of two hundred or two hun
dred and fifty thousand dollars, and ac-
cept the loss with what grace he can
command. His wage list will then be
cut down to the level required by the
new tariff, ard if the wOrkmen prefer
employment to id.eness, operations will
begin again with wages 40 or so per
cent. lower than they were last year.
"These charges having been made,
American manufacturers will begin the
struggle with their European cOmpeti-
tors for this market That struggle will
be fierce, and one of the certain cOnse-
quences of its continuance will be wage
reduction in Europe. These, the Amer
lean employers will promptly meet by
reductions here. They must do this or
stop. They will do it, not from choice,
but from necessity. With wages thus
adjusted, of course domestic industry
will be able to hold its own in the strong
competition to which it will be sub
jected. To conduct business will be
more difficult. and there will be quick
shifts of prices and OvercrowdIng of the
market to which we have not been ac.
customed; but, of course, Americans
with low wages can do as we'll as Euro
peans with low wages in any market in
the world.
''But let the workingmen observe that
the entire stress of the contest will thus
fall upon them. The American manu-
facturers will be out of tariff fights for
good and all. If the wage earners shall
desire to continue the agitation for pro-
lection they will have to do so single
handed. The subject will have lost
much of its interest for the employers.
Having accepted the results of the revo-
luton ard having made the necessary
changes in their business, they will sure
ly be averse to having another overturn-
ing, another complete subversion of
their affairs, with no assurance that
such hurtful adjustments and readjust.
ments will not be required at short in
tervals in the years to come. Being
practically upon the free trade basis,
they will be strongly inclined to stay
there, and to permit the workingmen,
who could have defeated the free traders
last year, to shift for themselves.

The United States Supreme Court has
given its decision in the Lennon case,
growing out of the strike on the Ann Ar
Dor railroad Lennon was an engineer
and disobeyed an order of United States
District Court by abandoning his engine
midway between the starting point and
destination. He was arrested and fined
$50, to be imprisoned until the fine
should be paid. He was released ON ha-
beas corpus proceedings and the case
carried to the Supreme Court, which af-
firms the judgement of the lower court.
The ruling is that the engineer was en-
ployed by the trip and broke his contract
in abandoning his engine half way.

We read that the. farmers of the
West are thankful;to even get 25 cents
per bushel for oats, 80 cents for wheat
and 40 cents for corn, and there are
newspaper reports of sales at fully 20
per cent below these prices. If the farm
ers there can afford to raise crops at
these prices can not our Vermont farm
ers make at least double the profit by
raising these crops here where the price
is just about double the western price?
Raise few of these crops and sell for
cash instead of paying out your cash for
them.

An ASTRONOMICAL DIARY-

Fay B. Stafford of Walingford, a SON
in-law of G. w. Bennett of Manchester,
has an almanac relic that is,- indeed,
curiosity. The title page, omitting seven
lines of doggeral as to the seasons, reads
as follows: San Astronomical Diary or
Almanack, for the year of our Lord
Christ, 1856. Being the, second after
Bissextile or Leap Year. Calculated for
the Meridian of New Haven Lat. Il De-
grees and 10 Minutes North, Long. 73
Deg. IA Min. Westward of the ROYAL OBJ
servatory at Greenwich. Containing
Lunations, Eclipses of the Luminaries.
Sun and Moons rising and setting, Time
of High-Water, Courts, Aspects, Judg-
ment of the Weather, Rising, Setting
and Soutling of the Planets and princi-
pal fixed Stars, Feasts and Fasts of the
Church, and other Remarkable DAYS.
&c. &c, &c. By Nathan Ben Solomon,
X. Y. h., educated at Jerusalem, and
superintendent of the College of Astron-
omy at Japan. New Haven: Printed by
Meigo, Bowen and Dana, in Chapes
Street."
Following the title page is biography
by "The Editors,' of this wonderful
Solomon. He is six feet high at least.
His complexion is fair beyond descrip-
ton" While his educational advan-
tages are descanted upon at Jerusalem,
and the astronomers at Japan empha-
sized, his first piece" was written from
East Florida, and the Materials of
which this Almanack is composed were
imported directly from Canton in the
Empress of China" The gravity (?) of
this claim of 1885 becomes laughable
when the educational advantages of that
year at Jerusalum are considered, and
the very close relations EAST Florida
with Japan and China are remembered.
But for all this the Calendar is almost
identical to the "Old Farmers Alman-
ack," of to-day. We note that the
Judgment of the Weather. differs from
what we have been familiar. In March,
for instance, we are told about these
days, at the working mans house, Hun
ger looks in, but dares not enter"
This book is interleaved with accounts
and some of these are interesting. For
instance:

To gill Bitters ............., O-O-6.
And again the 18th, 30th, and various
other dates the same charges are made.
1t would seem that one shilling two
pence to whet an appetite, nine pence
for supper and six pence for bitters to
settle it, was full enough extras for even
postrider. But later on, after settle
ment, the proprietors are charged for
breakfast, four pence; horse bate, four
pence, and for half gill brandy, niEe
pence. This seems large "bitters" even
for printers bill. This postrider was
the carrier of the Old Vermont Ga
zette. The printed leaves are similar to
much of the information found in Wal
toms Register: Distances from New
Haven, Courts, etc, etc. The original
owner has utilized all the blank spaces
in the Diary even to the covers, and
'6itters' seems to have been a universal
commodity.
