southern Demand for Protection.

Extracts from the speech OF Hon. j.
l.. McLaurin, NJ. C., OF South Carolina,
delivered in the House of Representatives,
March %, 1897 -
''ln my opinion this idea of ehcapness
is all wrong aud is rapidly leading our
people into great difficulties. Cheap pro-
ducts mean cheap men, and cheap men
mean national decay and relrogression.
Cheap products is but another term for
poorly paid labor, which in turn is sure
to bring want, rags and wrelchedness.
Hard times and cheap products always
walk hand in hand, while good times and
higher prices always run together. This
has been true in the past and no doubt
will continue true IN the future. The
products OF labor for years have been
gradually cheapened, and both debt and
financial disaster have followed closely in
It's path. The argument for free raw ma
terial In order to cheaper the manufac-
tured article | cannot entertain. II is a
theoretical assumption based upon the
false idea that man who sells bale OF
cotton for cents per pound can buy
more cloth than he could with cotton Mt
10 cents per pound.

WEDNESDAY, JUNE 2, 1897.

The Democrat advertiser, Of Elem
ington, in replying to an editorial in THE
RECORD, thinks that Mckinley ought to
have brought prosperity at once, upon his
advent to office, without waiting for a
change OF the Democratic revenue laws
which produced the misery. We can
readily conceive that paper that believes
that fifty cents worth OF silver can by law
be made equal to one hundred cents worth
Of gold, is capable OF believing that a
party does not need to put its principles
into law in order to be effective.
In its criticism il remarks "The edi-
tor says, 10 effect, that q burdensome tax
will at once restore confidence and make
the people happy We know of no more
"burdensome tax" than that which result
ed from the Wilson bill, which threw ihous-
ands Of working people out OF employment
and reduced the wages Of thousands Of
others; stopped the looms and wheels OF
the manufactures Of this country, and set
those OF Europe to hummng faster. The
"blessing in disguise" in this misery was
that a workingman could buy things
cheaper-if he bad the money. "Cheap
goods aud no work should be the watch
word of the free trader. Another "bur-
deusome tax that It imposed was the
issue of United States bonds by the mil
lions to pay for the shortage OF revenue,
so that the people not only have to pay
''the buTdensome taxi but the interest on
it. Whether low tariffs or high tariffs
prevail, the Democrat AdUerti8er ought
TO know that the same amount OF money
has TO be raised for the support OF gov
eminent but 10 the one case the duties
are laid 80 as to protect our manufactor-
lee, while the other claims to pay no at
tention whatever to the protective feature.
There Is no more tax in the one case than
the other-it is not the amount, but upon
what il should be laid, that is the matter
In dispute.

1t is estimated that the Government
is losing three million dollars week in
revenue by the delay in the passage Of
the Tariff bill, The people are losing
ten times AS much in work on account Of
the delay, We earnestly ask every one 4
our readers to immediately write postal
card to, al least, one member OF the
United States Senate at Washington,
urging and demanding the immediate
passage Of Protective Tariff law and
such law as will give adequate Protec-
ton 10 American labor aud American in
duslries. Address your postal card to
Hon. W. J. Sewell, or Hon Jas. Smith,
L. S. S, Washington, ID. {.

When Gen. Grant and party visited
Paris, while making the memorable jour.
ney aroand the world, the President of
the French Republic invited him to wit
ness the "Grand Prix," the most noted
Of the many French racing events. Gen.
Noyes, at that time minister to France,
relates
"Whcn General Grant received his in
vitation from the President OF the French
Republic to attend with him the Sunday
races, with no less candor and courage
than courtesy, lie thanked the President
for the honor of the invitation, but begged
to decline it, giving as reason for so
doing, that it would not be in accordance
with the sentiments and customs OF his
country to attend secular fetes on the
Lords day. "

Protection is gaining ground SO rapidly
among the Democrats that they have been
unable to agree upon line OF opposition
10 the Republican tariff bill In the Senate.
They came together in caucus the other
day and tried TO develop plan of opposi-
ton, but were astonished to find that
many OF their members had amendments
proposing to increase the tariff on products
from their own States, which fact, OF
course, made it impossible for the party
to enter any united protest against the
protective features OF the bill. The result
is that the debate will be "so as you
please, so far as the Democrats are
concerned, and that members of that party
will come to the front with appeals for
even greater protecuon than that now
granted by the bill
The Lambertville record. [volume] (Lambertville, N.J.) 1872-1968, 1897-06-02

The reciprocity feature of the new tariff
law is likely to be even more satisfactory
than that OF the Mckinley law. The addi-
ton OF tea and hides to the dutiable list
Increases the opportunity for obtaining
favorable reciprocity treaties, and 1t is
understood that the Senate will put into
the bill such provisions as to make it
practicable to secure very advantageous
reciprocal arrangements with many
countries, all Of which will be especially
in the interests of the agriculturisls OF the
country.
