PROTECTION AND RUIN.

Protection, so-called, is only the way
to ruin. Why is free trade England
prosperous these days with good busi-
ness and trade? All this is without
protection. The report of the bureau of
statistics at Washington shows that for
the nine months preceding March 81
the total volue of manufactures export.
ed was 5000, ,006, ,296, bearing the ratio Of
24.77 per cent to the total exports. This
was an increase of about S37 ZOO, 900
over the preceding nine months and an
Increase of two-tenths per cent in the
ratio, while in 1895 the manufactures
exported footed up 1882, ,ls7, 1888, with a
ratio of 2l.60 per cent to the total ex-
ports.
Under the present Wilson-Gorman
law our manufacturers import raw ma.
terials necessary in their business, and
hence can compete in the markets Of
the world. Pertinent to this is the
appeal signed by forty of the leading
leather and shoe firms of Chicago and
sent to Senator Mason, protesting
against the proposed tax of n cents
per pound upon hides. These men say
that this duty will destroy the "promis.
ing trade which has been begun in ex.
porting Shoes" Similar protests were
made to the committee at Washington
by shoe manufacturers all over the coun.
try. In 1896 above s2O,OOO,O00 worth of
shoes and other leather goods we're ex-
ported from this country. Like cloth.
ing, shoes have been greatly reduced in
cost by the Wilson law, while the work
has been more steady and the wages
higher.
Protectionists now propose that man.
ufacturers shall not have free raw
material but shall do business at an in
creased cost and so will be compelled to
sell to consumers at an increased price.
Their export trade will be cut off and
then there will be less work and more
idle men. But such is Republican pro-
lection and these so-called Statesmen go
on in their wilful blindness.

FOR SUPREME JUDGE.

The name of Hon. John p Spriggs, of
Monroe county, will be presented to the
Democratic State convention for nomina-
ton for the Office of Judge of the
Supreme Court. Mr.. Spriggs, has
been for many years, leading member
of the Monroe county bar. He is one of
the foremost lawyers in this part of the
State. He is man of mature years, in
the prime of life, and in every way
thoroughly well equipped for the per-
formance of the laborious duties of that
important position. He has always
been an active, earnest, Woodworking
Democrat, and has done as much as any
other man in the county to assist in
maintaining the Democratic majority in
old Monroe. He was an enthusiastic
supporter of Bryan and the Chicago
platform in the campaign last year. He

later he held Office for the first time, be-

was nominated for congress. At that
time his district was overwhelmingly
