SKINNING A GOLDBUG ORGAN.
 The Philadelphia Ledger, endeavor ing to justify MT. Cleveland's bargain which the British bankers, recently re- ferred to the fact that congress, in the last session, refused to authorize the issue of "gold" bonds, instead of "coin" bonds, although by doing it more than SIG, ,OO0,000 would have been saved (toJ the country. Thereupon The Manufoc- turer proceeds to remove the hide of it's goldbug contemporary as follows: "This means, if it has any meaning, that the country gave to the foreigners $16. .00O.- GOO for the option to pay the bonds in gold or silver. Is any other meaning possible? Are we then to understand The Ledgsr'S proposition to be that, having retained at so heavy a cost this option, the bonds are LOW lawfully pay
 able in silver dollars, if congress shall
 choose to pursue that course? By nc means do we advocate or even approve this method of payment. But, can The Ledger explain upon what grounds ii would propose to deprive the people o1 an advantage for which it says they have paid the vast sum of 16,000,00O The act of congress retaining the option

you take '? As Caliph Omar said of the library at Alexandria: ''If the books accord with the Koran we don't want them but if they disagree with the Koran, they must be destroyed. The devil take the books, ,"-and the bounty.
 Lubln argues that at present manu- factured products in this country are protected by tax on cheap labor i'm ports, while agricultural products which have to compete in the European mar. kets with cheap labor wheat, cotton, etc.. are not protected in the only way they can be protected, viz: by export bounties. In other words for wheat and cotton the farmer receives 8 free. trade price, while for his product the manufacturer receives protected price. So that the agricultural laborer must be paid free-trade wages while the factory hand receives protection wages. And the effect, he says, is that the unpro- tected industry is by law compelled to pay for the protection of the protected industry.
 As theory MT. Lubin's reasoning is very plausible. The American farmer
 however if he be given fair play prao- tically does not need this amount of | artificial protection. The natural ad vantages are all on his side rather than on the foreigners. His industry is not all on ths same footing as new and struggling branch of manufacture which has to contend against the great estab- lished centers of industry in the old world, where millions are em ployed at starving wages.
 The farmer here can produce with less labor on cheaper land far greater crops than his old world competitors i; and at present he does not demand, be- cause he does not require, the excessive protection advocated by Mir. Lub1n. A certain amount of protection is his due. This can be afforded, not by bounties on the great exports where be has the advantage, but by duties on agricultural imports where he is at disadvantage. The bounties system has 6 thousand evils from which the tariff system is free.

AN ADVOCATE OF COUNTIES.

Mir. David Lubin of California, is stumping the country on behalf of bounties for the American farmer. He is something of an extremist in protec- tion, wants to put bounty of half 8 cent on cotton exported and five cents on wheat exported, and so on. He has written letter to Morton, the COG k sure, sarcastical, sneering. supercllious secretary of agriculture. Morton had stamped the proposition of protection to agricultural staples by export boun- ties as absolutely impracticable.
 Morton says: eff it pays to raise agricultural products bounty is not needed. If it does not pay to raise agricultural products bounty will be of no benefit until the amount is ex- cessive." Here's pretty dilemma for you poor farmer: Which horn will
