The Proteotionist Performance.e

The following is part of ex-Con-
gressman John De Witt Warmers criti-
cism of the Dingley bill:
GAS it stands the most brilliant part
of the pending performance consists in
eating the words of the same actors in
the Fifty first congress. The Mckinley
bill of that date was virtually entitled
"a bill to reduce revenues. The Dingley
bill is specially commended as revenue
getter. The Mckinley bill pointed with
pride to the poor mans free breakfast
table. The Dingley bill puts upon sugar
"a single item of the breakfast table
one third of the total amount of the
tariff tax proposed. The items which
are supposed to help the farmer are good
examples of SO setting your trap as to
'cotch 'em acumin and a-gwine. For
instance, we have reciprocity in. order
to give the farmers market abroad for
what it is assumed they cannot produce
for home consumption unless they are
highly protected, as is done by another
section of the bill -
Gloucester County Democrat. (Woodbury, N.J.) 1878-1932, 1897-05-06

''The proposed tariff ON lumber, ;" the
Boston Transcript (Rep. says, is sim
ply measure to pick the pockets and
crush the industry of a large, useful and
influential class of American citizens
It is uneconomic, unscientifc, suicidal.
The statements upon which this schedule
was made up are shown to have been
insidious and misleading. The result
will be to strip the country not of an
annually recurring income, but of it's
white pine principal, which at present
rates is within ten years of exhaustion,
and also to ruin large class of business
men in this country who deserve better
things. 1t does not seem possible that
men claiming to represent the people
will permit such a measure to have the
force of law. If they do, it will cease
to be folly and become iniquity."
