A Protective Tariff in Prospect.

The short session OF congress be-
tween assembling and the holiday
recess, has not been barren Of inter-
est or result. 1t has developed a
strong sentiment pervading senators
and representatives favorable to Wig
orous action on the part OF this gov
eminent for suppression Of the war
in Cuba; it has displayed deter
mination on the part of the repubil-
can majority to make an honest effort
to secure international bimetallism,
in accordance with the pledges OF
the party; it has clearly Indicated
that il protective tariff law, framed
to encourage and sustain American
industries and interests, while pro-
ducing revenue sufficient for the
needs Of the government. viii surely

ing Wilson-G orham measure. 10

mittee, having revenue legislation III
charge, invite representatives OF the
different interests likely to be affected
to present their views and any infor-
alton calculated to assist IN framing
a symmetrical, just and elfectual pro-
tective tariff law. The committee
sets days for hearings on the several
schedules, beginning Monday, Dec.
~, with schedule A. chemicals, oils,
paints, etc, and ending Monday, Jan
uary 18th, with schedule \, sundries,

fHDEEn, Il must be confessed that
we could hardly have haG u more
unfavorabe period than the last two
years for the collection Of tariff
revenue. President Cleveland's Mes
sage.
True. Aud Why Because the adj
yalorem system of the present law -
permits wholesale underyaluations,
with consequent inability to collect
revenue; and further, because ol
the undervaluations and low adj
yalorem rates Of duty colleetible up
on our imports, our own factories
have been compelled 10 close, throw
ing tens OF thousands OF ctr people
out Of employment, depriving them
OF the ability TO sell their labor, aud
rendering them incapable of buying
even the cheap and shoddy goods
offered them under democratic
tariff Of "perildy and dishonor.'
Hence imports were checked because
the masses Of our people We're unable
to purchase them. And the longer
this condition lasts the longer will
the treasury deficit continue.
