CHAMP CLARK's VII.
Cieyerfy shows the Relation of tho
Poor Man to High Duties.

Cieyerfy shows the Relation of tho
Poor Man to High Duties.
Champ Clark, of Missouri, Is not only
cne of the wittiest men in the house OF
representatives. but he Is ono of tho
best posted on the tariff question.
in ridiculing some of the rates OF tho
Dingley hill that to him seemed subject
to criticism, he rccited how II man of
the name of Goodyear went before tho
ways and menns committee and secured
the tariff he wanted by some skillful
palnver about the great statesmen that
Maine had produced. Then ho said:
"Mr. Chairman, that piece OF soft
soap' made It harder for every poor
man In the United Statcs to- build a
house. Gov. DinEley swallowed the
bnit us quick as n trout would swallow
fly Qaughter), and next summer some
poor devil out west, living in n dugout
100 miles from railroad station, who
voted for Mckinley under the deudcd
Idea that prosperity would come under
his administration and who has not
heard of this tariff bill. ciphcrs 1t out
that he can build him two-room cot
tnge with lumber mud other building
materials at the old rate, He goes to the
station to get the lumber and finds that
the price has gone Sky high. and he goes
back to his home and says to his wife:
My dear, lam sorry that we must stay
In the dugout. We cannot build our lit
tic house. A great man by the name OF
Gov. Dingley has put the price of lum-
ber and other things SO high that we
cannot do 1t, but, thank God, he has
left dragons blood free Uaughtcr.)
Next year, when my handsome friend
from Iowa (Mr. Dollivcr) returns to
that fine agricultural district which he
represents, some man who has not been
able to buy coat because OF the high
price of woolen cloth will say to his
neigbbor: There comes polliyer, who
put up the price of woolen goods But
the successful candidate for the post
office in that district says: oh, but
Dolliver put divi-tlivi on the free llst!'
And in chorus they sing: 'Dolliver and
divi-divi forever" daughter. APP
plause on the democratic side.)

rniquItou. Lamser T.r,n.

"Tbe proposed tariff on lumber" the
Boston Transcript (rep.) says. sis sim.
ply q measure TO pick the pockets and
crush the industry of large, useful
and influential class of American citi.
zens. 1t is uneconomic, unscientifc.
suicidal. The statements upon which
this schedule was made up are shown
to have been iDsidious ana misleading.
The result will be to strip the country
not of an annually recurring income,
but OF it's white pine principal. which
ht present rates is within ten years OF
nxhaustion. and also to ruin largo
class of business men In this country
who deserve better things 1t DOES not
seem possible that men claiming to
represent the people 'viil permit such
measure 10 have the force OF law. II
they do, it will cease to be folly and be-
come iniquity."

The extremely high duties which

JAMES q. BT,AINE
Hon. William Mckinley, Chairman Ways
and Means.
Where Is the Blaine this year who
can head Off the wcstcrncrs who wnn,
their shnre of protection and foolIslly
imagine that they cnn get It by n duty
on hides? II Ii perfectly copslsten,
with the protection system to tax hides
especially ns the bulk of the tax wonlt

and ranchmep. But observe some 20
the effects upon our industrlcst
The importations OF untaxcd hidei
and skins last year were valued nt $50.
2l0,25S. The gontstins were valued n
$i0,3o3,35o. The former were mostly
converted into sole leather, betting,
and snch like henvy material. for which
our nntive hides nrc not thick enough
The goatslsins are not produced In thii
country.
From this rnw material we not onl,
manufacture boots. shoes and leather
goods for our own people cheaper and
better thnn are made elsewhere In th.
world. but we exported finished prod
ncts of the value OF $20,2i2, ,756. With
out free and cheap rnw material thi,
export trade would have been impossi
bic, and our own people, US Mr.. Blaine
pointed out, would he compelled 10 pny
more for their footwear. The wages
paid to our workers In leather last yral
amounted to $o5.542.1G6.

why Incren.c INC Coni putyf


Under the existing tariff bituminou.
coal pays 40 cents u ton. The I)ingley
bill proposes to make this rs cents. In
1886 the imports of bituininous conl
into the United States were 1858:
tons The exports were 2.246.2s4. The
figures from Cunuda were: Imported
from Nova Scotia. New brunswick. etc.
123.4o4 tons; from Quebec, Omtnrio
etc, 39.Js7; from British Columbia
627,257: exports to these three divisions
respectively, 4I3 tons. 1.672,302 and
3.0o4. Canadn now proposes in case the
Dinglcy rate is imposed to retaiiate by
high duty on our coal. which will
certainly not stimulate exports. Here
is an export business worth twice as
much as the corresponding import bust.
ness. and 1t is proposed to run the risk
of running the former for the sake OF
scrcwing s350.O00 taxes out OF the lat
ter. and this on the plea of reviving
American industry. Can any sane man
fail to see thnt. even assuming that
imports do not fall off. it is hardly
worth while for the sake of a paltey
$350.0o0 to tempt Canada into running
an established business nearly twice ms
large rs that which is to yield the tax
Yet this is the way in which "the old
thing works"

An .Odious Tax.

The tin plate makers wish I'd boom
their business by increasing the duty
on imported tin plate. to the injury bf
the canning industry and othet th.
dustries that flourish by teason
Of cheap tin plate. Another blow
y struck ut business by abol:sbing
the rebate oil exported tin cans. Now
canned goods exported In cans made OF
imported tin are allowed n drawback Of
the duty paid, and thus an export bhsi.
ness has been built UP In canned fruits.
oysters. vegetables, petroleum, etc.
Over 100000 tin cans are sent abroad
annually. containing oil which com.
petes with that of Russia. When rms
sia can buy tin plate ut s2.70 box.
while we have to pay $3.50 for IL, II Is
evident That our competition will be
rendered difficult. Mr.. bihgley robs
Peter to pay Paul.-Ba1timor Sun.

Admits Prices VIII nc Higher

With regard to Chairman Dingley's
admission that the duty on wool will
Increase the price OF wool. the KANSAS
City Times says: The consumer and
not the foreigner, therefore. pays the
tariff tax. 1t comedies also that the
home producer puts up his price nrbi-
tmrily. Mr.. Dingley's own words are n
confession that the Dinglcy bill is n
fraud and a robbery CT the people for
tho benefit Of the few individuals and
corporations.
