No Tax on immigration.

To the Editor:
l notice a letter In The Evening World from
John s. Brown. In which he says Put a tax OF
5000 on every immigrant Give US free trade. In
hve years every laborer will be getting 40 cents
an hour. and we shall have ousted England, Ger
many and France from the markets OF the
world" Did It ever occur to MIR. Brown that the
value OF a manufactured article is measured
largely by the cost Of the labor 1t takes to pro-
duce 1t? There are In the world certain num-
Der OF people who gain a livelihood from the
product OF their labor. The article they produce
has to be sold somewhere, usually in the best
market they can find. Now. II we in the United
States pay more for labor than is paid elsewhere.
the article We produce must be more valuable
than one produced in a country where less wages
is paid and we must receive more for II than the
poorer paid laborers do for the article they pro-
duce. II we were to have free trade and allow
the products Of cheap labor to come into our mar
ket. We surely could not get any more for our
goods than they offered theirs for hence would
like to know how our laborer is to get the 40
cents an hour Mr.. Brown has promised them.
The manufacturers of Europe are not behind us in
improved machinery In fact, they lead us in
many cases. This talk OF our immense machin-
cry, genius and pluck all sounds very nice, but we
sometimes have to drop sentiment and be honest
with ourselves when 1t comes to a question Of
bread and butter. The fact is with free trade
with all nations. people would have to dispose
OF the products of their labor at the same price
that poorer paid laborers would, and they must
work for the same wages that England Germany.
France or any other nation pays or not work at
all Allow the honest and industrious immig grant
to come here free OF any tax and receive the
same wages our workmen do. Put duty on the
Oh hat our la hore
will be protected from the invasion of the arti-
Giles made by the cheap labor OF the world. and by

Spring Lake Neckwear.

About the Notwithstanding girls to

peculiar to the habitues this season,
gives the young ladies a degree OF high
breeding that is most admirable. These
stocks are simply a gros grain. satin
edged ribbon Of hand width. lined with
crinoline. worn choker fashion, and
hooked in the back under bow. The
ribbon has neither a plat nor a gore in
it. and to keep 1t smooth the head has
to be carried high and the chin up. And
50 they are. The result is the girls have
the appearance Of distinction and refine

gum in powder. one drahm nutmeg OIL,
six drops Of orange blossom tea, or
apple blossoms. put in half pint Of rain
water and boiled down to one teaspoon
full and strained, one pint of sherry
wine. Battle the face morning and night;
will remove all flesh worms and freckles,
and give a beautiful complexion. Or,
put one ounce Of powdered gum OF ben
zoin in pint of whiskey; to use. put In
water in washbowl till It is milky, allow.
ing 1t to dry without wiping.
